  • It is Mexican, but it's imported to Canada by an importer in Texas. Pop shoppe I know. They're sold at a local fish and chip place near me. I've been opting for Brio, for now. That and store-brand.

  • I fear that Europe, as is tradition, will fail to capitalise on this moment due to internal division, with China reaping most of the benefits as a result.

    I would love to be wrong. I hope I am. I feel like an EU at the centre of global trade and geopolitics is the least awful option at this point in history. Although with the continued rise of the far right in France and Germany that may not be the case for much longer.

  • What benefit is there to British people protesting US government austerity programs from Trafalgar Square?

    Not that I don't agree with the idea that what trump is doing is callous; it's just that I fail to understand why foreigners would protest the US government in this way when their own government is in the process of cutting welfare, healthcare etc., all while being extremely cowardly in their response to trump.

    trump barely cares what Americans think of him. Imagine how much less he cares what a few thousand Brits think. Starmer is quite literally just down the street and at least with him there is a chance you will have your voice heard.

  • Although it's not insurmountable with the advent of improved battery storage technology, this kind of dramatic change is an issue for existing baseload infrastructure. The French grid is basically designed around a nuclear baseload which many would already consider 'green.' Nuclear also comes with a very high capital investment, typically from public funds, and energy prices dropping below a certain threshold could impact repayment, public debt and interest costs etc.

  • The US and Canada both have dairy tariffs in place. However, they functionally do not exist because they are only applied after a quota is met. For example, last year Canada charged a 0% tariff on all US dairy imports because the total volume of trade never breached the quota limit. This has basically been the case since NAFTA.

    Canada, on average, actually charges lower tariffs than the US. That was true before Trump's trade war and remains true today.

  • I may be misremembering but I'm pretty sure the same character appears in Nioh or Nioh 2. A Japanese game made by Japanese developers. A cameo, but a representation of an historic figure and not some random person plucked out of historical obscurity.

    I probably won't play the game because I've never really been a fan of the Assasin's Creed style but imagine getting your knickers in a twist over something that no one is forcing you to play. There are a bajillion other games. So weird.
