Now reinstate that fucking Digital Services Tax !

[–] Jason2357@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Or, as was originally planned, Negotiate a global minimum tax with the EU and other major markets. Then better yet, remove DRM anti-circumvention legislation. That way Canadian companies can openly jailbreak our phones and offer alternative app stores on the devices we own -with no American middleman taking a third of the money we spend.

anyone can install f-droid. also jailbreaking isn't up to Canadian companies, its up to the device manufacture allowing it and providing warranty for it (which they wont). If you want a phone like that, your best bet is buying a linux phone that is open out of the box, but no companies are canadian that produce it.

For now. Google is making sure this not an option in the near future

Good luck with your bank's app and google pay.

[–] Medic8teMe@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Fuck google. That's the point. And my bank has this cool machine by the door that does everything the app does and an actual human who I can speak to in person who can also do all the things.

You still have physical banks ?

[–] Knoxvomica@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Not only that but last time I checked you can do banking on a WEB BROWSER.

I just realized that McCain is a Canadian company. Sorry, I've been boycotting their fries and stuff for the past few months, but it was a mistake - damn you, John McCain!

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago

The McCains still have their list of problems, much like other large Corporations and billionaires, but they are Canadian.

This is the only way to hurt Trump. Financially. It’s all a grifter knows. I wish ALL countries would blacklist America.

His reign won’t be stopped with arms and violence. It’ll be stopped by boycotts. And we’re now barreling towards a national labor strike. All we need is just to be pushed into the “nothing left to lose” category…

That’s great but can you reduce our US exports?

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 13 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Trump is handling that part, it's the reason we need to increase our non-US exports
