Worked very well for Stephen Harper. He told them he wouldn't take questions from them, and then they covered his press releases with vigour.

They're coming from larger markets, so already have a larger sales base, large income flow, and reduced costs from producing at a larger scale.
Y'all come from large provinces, don't ya? Because none of you are talking like you've ever seen a bigger neighbour wipe out your local industry. Or paidnany attention while Walmart and Amazon decimated things.
Yes, getting things onto the island will be expensive, but if you have a war chest, a distribution network, and the facilities to produce at scale, you can enter the market just fine. And if a bunch of others do as well, the lot of them can squeeze out the local brewers.
Weirdly enough, the amount of money you have today directly impacts how much you can fuck over someone smaller than you tomorrow.
You love to see it.
Why does the mainstream media continue to buy into the lies and hypocrisies Trump continues to spew regarding trade with Canada ?
Well, for some reason -- whether it's a reflexive trust in the system, or something more along the lines of it being difficult to get someone to understand something when their salary depends upon them not understanding it -- the media can't wrap their head around the idea that the President of the United States might be a sleazy, lying, dirty fink of a rat bastard.
His other argument was the 200 billion dollar surplus in trade
It's worth highlighting here that Trump believes that not paying for goods and services is what smart business people do, and we can interpret his discussion around trade deficits in these terms. Trump is not setting his agenda here -- he has people whispering in his ear who know how to pull his strings and push his buttons to their own ends -- but he is giving us a window into his understanding of the world. And he believes that America paying for what it buys is beneath them. So, this is how he himself interprets arguments around trade.
The media, again, chooses not to understand this, and instead abdicate their imagined duty to inform people of the truth, and pat themselves on the back for being megaphones for whoever's in charge today. Doesn't matter that they know that person has never successfully said something factually correct or not.
Their own server, or their own router? They're different.
The industry is small, and getting things off the island is expensive. Medium sized brewers from Ontario and Quebec will eat their lunch.
They seem to know something about marketing, and specifically about how to sell a website to the public, which would put them ad odds with everyone else running AP-based websites.
Kessler syndrome is specifically about LEO, and the damage done by debris from collissions, though. Like, that was Kessler's whole thing.
My car's alternator belt snapped on Sunday. I didn't know what the problem was, so when both Google and the mechanic I contacted said it sounded like the alternator was bust, I ran out and bought a new alternator. The mechanic showed up, saw the broken belt, and said I needed that instead.
Guy said he'd pick the belt up for me if I fronted him the cash, and be back this morning. An hour after he was supposed to show up, he told me he could be by this afternoon, but that I'd have to get the belt myself.
The fucking gall.
I burned half my afternoon yesterday, and a bunch of money, to get the alternator. I fronted this guy the money -- knowing it was a risk, but it's cheap -- because I knew I wouldn't have the time or energy to be bouncing around town to get it myself today. None of the parts stores around here deliver. Calling a tow truck to bring the car into a shop involves the same bouncing around town that getting the belt would.
I just don't have any of this in me today.
Even when offering to pay them, people won't fucking help me. It's so disheartening.
Well, that looks cozy.
Yup. And I am hyper independent in many things.
Cars are a notable exception. I hate getting dirty.
