The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I'm sure that Canada's new actions (err, announcements) ...

We will see in 30 days if it was merely an announcement. The internet tells me that politicians sometimes say they are going to do a thing and never get around to actually doing it.



... will make a truly meaningful difference on the 0.2% of opioids arriving in the US via the Canadian border rather than from further south : )

I am not sure how anybody could know how much comes across each border. As far as I know, cartels don't fill out customs declarations.


The bigger threat, for many years, has been the risk of Canadians taking over the US comedian industry.

There are US comedians? You learn something new every day.
