There is nothing Canada can do that will force the US to do anything at all. 😂

@SpudMuffin Since the end of WW2, the US has been paying tariffs to our "friends" overseas. Now that the tables are turned, you're all whining like the babies we always knew you were. The fact is, you can't survive without US trade and protection. The US pays the vast majority of NATO funding. For decades, the losers in NATO haven't even been able to meet the 2% levy and the US covered the delta.

That's over. Trump is your daddy...isn't he? 😆 You need to get in line or big bag US prez will spank your childish butts.

You go right ahead and keep whining. We're laughing over here. You're especially entertaining. So please...don't stop 🫵 😂

@carpediem unlike the majority of Americans we know how tariffs work - that's why we find you so funny!

When I was studying engineering 50 years ago, we did everything in metric in hopes that the U.S. would change. Oh well, maybe in my grandchildren's lifetime.
It's odd that practically the first country to throw off the yoke of British rule is the last to keep the old Imperial measurements.

Not even Britain uses them anymore (except for miles and pint measures.)

It’s been slow, but many things made in the US are metric now.
@jackson55 I went to HomeDepot here in Canada last week and everything is Imperial. It's a sad disgrace that we have to put up with that garbage in these modern times.
I was trying to remember a screw size I needed, it was something like 8/32.. no that can't be right because that is 4/16... no 2/8.. no 1/4 and it definitely was not 1/4. lol.

@JamesBugman Imperial sizes will be with us for a long time. Too much equipment still operating with std fasteners. Cars and motorcycles made in the US are metric.

Trumpet doesn't know how to count so there's that.
