And if we didn't, would it make any difference? Nice to virtue signal when it doesn't affect your income.

What a trash mentality you have . It is like saying it's ok to be a criminal associate because even if there is no associate the criminal would still commit his crime. You are ok with people getting harassed and abused by ICE and think being human who care about that virtue signaler? Virtue signaling is just a dumb term used to shut other when you have no real arguments.

oh, your toes are curling in your birkenstocks and your ponytail is getting unravelled.

Why should Canada care what a shithole ex trading partner does with our trucks? ICE is bad, but it's not in Canada and it wasn't created by a massive 78 million voters of support. So battle on the internet like it actually does anything useful. And stay home smoking dope next election.

We signed multiple treaties about defending human rights. You don't have any values in your life?

Do you not use cellphones because they have cobalt mined by children in them? Because otherwise this seems like pure virtue signaling.

Individuals do not bear as much responsibility than companies. Companies carry a far greater level of accountability because of the vast scale and influence. Virtue signaling is such a bullshit word that anybody use when they can address the actual issue mentioned in an article .

You would never shamelessly defend this if you had members of families victim of ICE

No one is defending ICE, but you get the problems you deserve as a country.

It's just dumb to expect ICE to shut down because they don't have a few trucks.

You are defending ICE. If you give someone equipments to comit abuses and crimes than you are complicit.

I'm expecting ICE to stop acting like the gestapo and stop abuaing people and not for it to shut down then we can sell them equipments
