Isn’t Alaska mainly red?… that’s too bad. 🍿
Having visited Dawson City, Yukon last summer, if the locals I talked to are anything to go by, they are too. They hated Trudeau, and hoped the US would elect Trump. Welp, they got what they wanted and now are finding out.
They are red. I feel for Yukon. Never fun to lose friends. Especially when they are neighbours too.
Yeah, our closest ocean access is Skagway or Haines and with everything happening a lot of people are cancelling summer trips or changing destinations. A lot of the folks on the other side of the border are great, but it's tough to justify supporting American right now.
As an American, I don’t support America right now. Thoughts are with Canada for dealing with the side effects of this buffoon of a president.
Not in that image 😅
I think the real problem with the world right now is aging demographics, which lead to higher interest rates, which threatens the ponzi scheme we have created in finance and housing.
The US is dealing with it using tariffs, Europe is using carbon border adjustments to do the same thing with a green veneer. Carney has said we would be joining Europe in tariffing foreign emitters.

What in the world are you referring to? Certainly not the article, which has absolutely nothing to do with this.
Over-border detentions by ice and border patrol between Yukon and Alaska. That was what the article was about.

Is this even a sensible framing? To seek the one main thing wrong with the world right now?
It's a variation of that silly debate game of choosing "money, sex or power" as the thing that "moves the world".
WWII was caused by global populism and tariffs just as we are seeing now. I think it makes sense to assume rapid changes in the financial market can cause populism, price controls, tariffs, etc..
Maybe you're right that the political instability isn't due to the global financial markets though. I just thought we could be reliving some form of history.
