Did you know that Ontario is spending millions of dollars every single day for their "Suck Up to the USA" commercials?

The commercials began after President Trump told Trudeau that he might impose tariffs if Trudeau didn't step up security on the Canadian border. Trudeau quickly complied, but Trump teased him heavily, calling him "Governor" of our Canadian "State".

THEN came the commercials. They are propaganda light. They come on television SO often that it verges on an attempt at brainwashing. They are all about how Ontario is our friendly neighbor and ally to the north, and partners in business and in our economy, and how they have all sorts of minerals we need for tech, and how they have so much energy up there to share.

I don't know if you have seen the commercials...but I am beginning to get angry about them. There is NO NEED for us to be subjected to this constant bombardment. My brain REFUSES to be washed...and Ontario is accomplishing the OPPOSITE of what they intended.

If you have seen the Ontario commercials, you know what I mean. Do YOU feel the same way that I do?
just wait until they and other provinces stop supplying power to the states....should be interesting....oh and maple syrup

Doesn't bother me in the least. Let them whine. The goal is 2 fold. Secure the border, and fair trade. All they have to do it get those things in order and all will be just fine. If not... well.. 🤷🏻‍♂

@carpediem But the massive repetition...it's way too much. I am going to have to stream.

@4meAndyou I can't relate. I don't watch my television any more. And the times I am, I mute any commercials.

@carpediem There's a thought.
He on a roll this week..

Can’t say he’s not a whip cracker..

Trump says outlandish thing..
ie: buy Greenland. Absorb Canada..
reclaim Panama Canal…
Than watch how fast these places whip themselves into gear for their citizens and obligations 🍿

@carpediem When I voted for Trump in 2016, I KNEW he had that "crazy" streak. And the nice thing was that other world leaders knew it, too!

@4meAndyou it was the same with Reagan. With no basis the narrative was that he was this trigger happy, nihilist war monger.

Like most normal people he just hated commies. Nothing more, nothing less

He let them believe that and always dealt from strength 👍

@Thrust Reagan was awesome. I wish I could remember him better. I didn't pay much attention to politics back in those days. I was too busy working.

Now, now, let's be nice...

Ontario is our 3rd-largest trading partner and shares our common values.

Italian Altar Boy's Confession

'Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.'
The priest asks, 'Is that you, little Giovanni Fratelli?'
'Yes, Father, it is.'
'And who was the girl you were with?'
'I can't tell you, Father, I don't want to ruin her reputation.'

'Well, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?'
'I cannot say.'
'Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?'
'I'll never tell.'
'Was it Nina Capelli?'
'I'm sorry, but I cannot name her.'
'Was it Magda Piriano?'
'My lips are sealed.'
'Was it Rosa D'Angelo, then?'
'Please, Father, I cannot tell you.'

The priest sighs in frustration. 'You're very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 5 months. Now go and behave yourself.'

Giovanni walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and
whispers, 'What'd you get?'

'Five months vacation and five excellent leads.'

I would just save the money.
4meAndyou · F
@nudistsueaz IKR? Couldn't the people of Ontario USE that tax money for something else?
nudistsueaz · 61-69, F
@4meAndyou I would think so

@Blondily Yes. I thought of that a few minutes ago. AND Carpedium mentioned muting the commercials, which I will do now. You see, I spend every morning and part of the afternoon online, with my headphones on. That way I can listen to the news channel while I am reading and typing.

I don't know why it didn't occur to me to slide the sound on the headphones to zero when these commercials come on!

@4meAndyou Thats a great idea! lol
I cannot stand comnercials. They give me a headache.

@YourMomsSecretCrush This advertising campaign is WAY over the top. It's extremely excessive. I wonder if the people of Canada know that their tax money is being wasted on something like this?
Thrust · 56-60, M
@4meAndyou they'll just seize the assets of another "other" to pay for it.

Who doesn't love a mincing fascist as the prime minister?
