No he bent the knee pretty badly and made a few headline sounds deals that do little to impact Canada's standing. Frankly Canada doesn't really have any choices the USA will never allow them to "distance" themselves and

Of course they cooled Iran kept enriching uranium and the rest of the world agreed to ignore it.

> But rather than protect global sea lanes, the US is bombing Iran. That’s not the same thing. With Iran's support of the Houthi I think you'll find they are exactly the same thing.

So what your saying is it should be removed from the military supply chain?

> And yes, the US can sanction whoever they want, but such actions are far from free.. Honestly the biggest problem that's coming out of all of this is the US is finding out most of its actions actually are free... Like everyone kno

It's 100% acceptable in real life that the whole concept of free speech. Seriously you can say shit like that all day every day in the USA and the cops probably won't even bother you.

I mean the other options are China and Europe but honestly it's probably way safer as a EU/European citizen to have your data in the USA vs Europe. The last thing I want is Europe in control of any of my data they just fundamental
