Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This fucking guy seems to think Trump and Polievre will hand him a NA market not only subsidized but incentivized by tariffs on imports from China - who, unlike NA, hasn’t stuck their head in the oilsand.
And he’s right it seems.
North America fucked up EVs. It’s fucked that we will also be hampered in adoption because of shit selection and absurd prices.
Edit: another hindrance to adoption is that I will never give my money to Tesla after how Musk is acting with their approval.
Not enough towns that could benefit from bus systems have bus systems. We could be providing subsidies to municipalities to implement bus systems. Instead we're giving them to the world's richest man so we can shift which resources our colonialism extracts instead of undoing the colonialism

I'm dreading a pp PM.
Me too, but I’m resigned to it.
Too many Canadians simply cannot see that our conservatives are similar in ideology to the US.
I will hold out a tiny sliver of hope that he won't be elected. However, my realist-ness says we have 8 years of pp to fuck up canada before we get another liberal PM. Not what need either, but at least less detrimental.
