The world needs Taiwan not just the US, we need to protect them from China and the US.
I will not be buying another iPad or iPhone, I have “De-Appled” most of the things. I have moved almost all of my web services to Canadian hosts, and I look at all my purchases to make sure they are Canadian first or not US second. I use a pi-hole setup to block ads, and Unwatched to block youtube ads. I have raspberry pi’s to do the computer things.
I moved to Lemmy, an open source social network I am on a Canadian host, to get away from Reddit.
The government of Canada is constantly looking for trade deals that are not centred on the US. I think the boycott is working.
It was great
I am all for supporting Canadian workers, who work at US stores in Canada, however there are other options than Walmart. I was trying to get away from Walmart prior to the boycott because of their business practices, they take suppliers and rap them over the coals.
Try moving to a Canadian retailer (avoid Loblaws though).
We (our government) need to get over trying to appease Trump.
One word “Fascism”
I really hope it comes back. Best we can do now is stop using those services from US companies.
His elbows aint up anymore!
I have turned off a lot of US services and plan to have more turned off this week, I have been slowly cutting things as I come across them, my elbows are up it is to bad Carney has put his elbows down.
I was looking at my ISPs email stuff, for some reason? I found out they have moved to an exchange service, so a Microsoft protocol. I have sense started moving all of my emails off of there to (they are trying to stop offering email so it is nothing off their back).
As a Canadian in 2025, I have cancelled almost all of my US web services including streaming services. Apple still has there hands in my pocket for some 50G icloud stuff, I have been trying to offload all of my stuff but it takes time.
I have turned to a pirates life for some things other things I just use my pihole to block ads I would love it if I could setup a system on my LAN that I could have ad free streaming music on. I also wish youtube had a Canadian or a not US competitor that came close to the same things.
We all need to stand behind the CRTC and cancel the US streaming services.
X should be banned full stop.
Yeah I have signed out of Reddit, I plan on leaving my account inactive. I know it is a small fraction of a percentage of a cent that it costs to have an inactive account but hey it costs them money.
