“All players, no matter which country they play in, get paid in U.S. dollars,” Bettman told CNBC’s Becky Quick on Squawk Box on Wednesday. “So if the impact of the tariffs is to see the Canadian dollar drop relative to the U.S. dollar, it will make it more difficult and more painful.”

Okay, but we put a tariff on our Canadian labour and we get 25% bonus. Win-con!

Not sure if you're serious, bud.

Elbows up means get ready to fight.

They're welcome to operate here, and pretty much always have been. Originally, VP Krasnov said amongst other things like fentanyl, we have to "open up" our banking. This I read as "deregulate" our banking to allow more risky, predatory, and derivative practices which served to crash Murca in '08, making a ton of money for those involved in the ~~bailout~~ welfare payments.

The pesky first amendment only applies where VP Krasnov says it does, comrade. Rules for thee, not for he.

I understand what you're saying. I also dispute the 50% number.

I'm saying only 30% of the country voted for him, 30% against, and 40% voted with their asses, making the effective amount of "love" 70%, not 50%.

Approval rating of ~50% notwithstanding, he has a 70% mandate to fuck shit up when we have 40% ass-voters.

We should all be calling him by his real name, "VP Krasnov".

ETA: and "Murca" is now glorious "KRASNOVIA"

Yes, he's banned from running charities. But not just him. His whole family is banned because they were all in on it.
