Trump administration 2024-2028

It's great if people change their minds to get on-side with something worth doing.

If they were basically against something until the point at which it started costing them, f*ck 'em if they're having a rough time. They should have been thinking of people other than themselves beforehand.

Then he is free to try to amend the Constitution by whatever means are required. If there is to be any respect or legitimacy for a nation's foundational law, you can't have it subject to one person's opinion, regardless of who that person is. If what he has done is considered legitimate, then any part of the Constitution or any of their law are subject to his personal fiat.

The 14th Amendment was passed after the US Civil War to, in part, grant citizenship to former slaves. Adoption was a requirement for a State to re-join the Union. I wonder if it would be considered okay for him to sign away that part too.

It is within his authority to direct his DOJ to take a case involving a person he defines in the Order and move it through the courts.

Why would he need an amendment when it already reads what he says? If others have problems with that they can submit an amendment. He didn't sign away anything, he reinforced it. In know, all interpretation. Prior governments interpreted it one way, the current another. Like always people can request amendment to clarify or challenge in court. Personally I think amendment would be best as the court today may not be the same one 10 years down the road.
 
Maybe we will end up thanking Trump.

Christopher Dummitt: The Liberals are blocking Canada’s progress

They always come up with reasons we can’t accomplish goals we’d otherwise all agree on. A new leader isn't going to change that
nationalpost.com nationalpost.com

The problem is that, over the last decade, Liberal policies have caused much frustration among Canadians. On the other side, firmly entrenched and channelling 10,000 gigawatts of public resentment, is Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

You might call it a conflict between two philosophies: “get outta the way” versus “yes, of course, but …”

Lucy Gay: Canada must embrace the LNG future, or get left behind by Trump's energy superpower

To remain competitive, Canada must streamline approval processes and pursue trade agreements to access global markets
nationalpost.com nationalpost.com

Canada’s next prime minister should waste no time changing the direction of the country’s energy future. Rather than discriminate against efficient and cheaper energy sources, like natural gas, in favour of more costly sources, the Canadian government needs to take an agnostic approach.

This would be the guy who rolled up in front of a church - the same church if I recall - stood for a photo op with a bible in his hand, then left.

He's a Christian of convenience so long as it plays to his base.

Ok just to make you happy as you obviously didn't like the joke.

  • 55.4 (2) If, following the laying before Parliament of any actuarial valuation report pursuant to section 56 that relates to the state of the Canadian Forces Pension Fund, there is, in the President of the Treasury Board’s opinion, a non-permitted surplus in that Fund,

    • (b) there may be paid out of the Canadian Forces Pension Fund, and into the Consolidated Revenue Fund, the amount, at the time and in the manner, that the Treasury Board determines on the recommendation of the President of the Treasury Board after consultation with the Minister.
Thinking TB's opinion could be influenced to determine at 11% it is a non-permitted surplus and transfer from the pension. They are already doing it to the public service at supposedly $1.9 billion. Federal pension plan: Anand must restore fairness to federal government workers

and should we all pretend it didn't happen before Public service employees not entitled to $28-billion pension repayment, court rules
