Trudeau should plan a meeting in Ottawa to sign the egg pact, then berate Trump's ill-fitting suit and say that Canada will slap a 100% export tariff on eggs to the US unless Trump hands over Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
He won't, because not even Trudeau is that big of an asshole.
Trudeau should provide eggs on these conditions:
Then send Trump the agreement for signature. Points #2 and #3 are obvious things to leave off a carton of eggs, until you tell Trump he can't have them, then they'll become a critical issue blocking his signature. Then go on Twitter and Truth Social and say "We have 2 billion eggs ready for you guys and Trump is refusing to let us send them" and let the shitstorm follow.
Also insist that Trump has never thanked Canada.
Spoiled eggs from Turkey sounds like a great way to Make America Sick Again, LOL. Dear Canadians, Please post photos of your inexpensive eggs. Additionally, please post photos of all the items you use eggs to make. Fuck trump.
I actually do have a photo of Canadian eggs ($3.79 CAD is about $2.50 USD)
This is a good idea. Fuck trump. Fuck the republican traitor filth.
It's probably pasteurised eggs. And it's probably not direct to consumer either. Lots of things have eggs in them and those eggs were probably bought in jugs or barrels rather than dozens.
Trump Might Have to Ask Foes Like Trudeau for Emergency Eggs
Woah woah woah. Why the ever-loving fuck are they calling Trudeau a "foe"?! Are they just priming people to believe we're enemies now so that when the inevitable invasion comes they feel justified?!
Language matters and this is yet another disgusting betrayal.
Trudeau kinda is one of Trump's foes though, isn't he?
No. We're allies and good trading partners. If Trudeau is a "foe" then it's only because Trump is making unrealistic demands of submission or being crushed.
I think I'm the only one who remembers when Trudeau and Trump and Nieto signed that NAFTA agreement and Trump screwed up by signing in the wrong place and Trudeau covered for him to save him embarrassment. A very classy move that went completely unnoticed by a classless thug.
Dear Canada, as an American, please don't send us any eggs. 77M+ people here need to face the FO part of FAFO.
At about 1,4$US for a dozen, why don't you come visit instead?
Peanut fried fries, day fresh cheese curds, steaming thick chicken BBQ sauce with an over easy egg on top is worth the detour.
Been a couple times, would love to go again! Great food, nice people, great sights. Unfortunately, as a non-white person, leaving the States right now except for some permanent reason seems tenuous to me, and I've a family to consider.
Working on convincing everyone to move, but it's tricky with jobs and pets and extended family kids...but we'll see.
In the meantime, I've been buying eggs from local farmers directly for ~$5-$6 per dozen which is less than the store and half the time is basically a neighbor of mine.
I wish Trump what he deserves.
I wish his supporters everything they voted for
$50 eggs. I recognize so many citizens actually support these moves. This is a relatively harmless way to draw attention to more of these bad decisions.
By all means, let the price of eggs skyrocket. It’s the least harmless of what we collectively voted for.
If i was Canada leadership I would give eggs for 50% mineral rights and demand he say thank you and repeat he has no eggs over and over again.
One of the oldest addages: Don't put all your eggs in one basket
The US is facing rising egg costs because their chicken farms are absolutely massive and susceptible to disease. Ironically a larget network of small farms results in stable prices.
This is a metaphor for all of capitalism.
i hope they all tell america to fuck right off. start selling that shit to countries that deserve it
I hope Canada puts a 100% tariff on eggs to the USA, get those egg prices up to $1.50 per egg.
I can vaguely remember what eggs used to cost
If trump keep “creating history” for another 50 days like he has been doing for the first 50 days so far, I surely wont remember what an egg look like.
Even some of my friends from China and Russia are taken aback by the level of vulnerability and obedience Americans seem to have towards brainwashing techniques.
Even some of my friends from China and Russia are taken aback by the level of vulnerability and obedience Americans seem to have towards brainwashing techniques.
Years ago, when Donald Trump was still just a reality TV star, I went to a conference in the US and talked for quite a bit of time with someone from Germany, who had grown up in East Germany before the Berlin Wall fell. He said that in his childhood, all the TV news and print media were filled with State propaganda. Nobody believed it. But everyone said they did, to avoid unwanted government scrutiny.
He remarked that the media in the US sounded very similar to the media that used to be in East Germany. And not just Fox News (the Conservative darling at the time). All the US media resembled the media in East Germany back in the day, to some extent. But he was very surprised to realize that Americans believed the media, as long as it agreed to their pre-conceived political beliefs. (And, worse yet, didn't believe the media that offered opposing viewpoints out of hand). Here we had the freedom to believe whatever we wanted, and we let ourselves get brainwashed.
Things have only gotten worse since Americans started getting their news online, from self-selected social media influencers.
Checkmate America.
What an odd way to signify 36 eggs
. "Twin cartons of two less a score m'lud" is what the egg valet relayed to me.
Zelensky should have brought a carton of eggs to the oval office.
That would be such a power move.
the best thing for the world right now would be for america to suffer the consequences of its poor decisions. the beatings must continue until we start making better decisions.
What if we take our remaining eggs and force feed them to trump until he explodes. I would be willing to sacrifice my eggs for that
What the fuck even is 2025 though
Americas fall into full blown fascism.
“We MUST invade Canada. Not for the oil, not for the water, not for the minerals, steel or aluminum, but for the eggs! Get America cracking again!”
Trudeau would be within his rights to tell him to suck off
Fuck em. I like inexpensive eggs and it's not like they would send us shit if the shoe were on the other foot. Besides, we have a supply system and would effectively be subsidizing US exports with higher prices. So double fuck em.
What a fucking Jackass
Nah, fuck that. Let’s see eggs go to $20/dozen.
most famines are manmade, exacerbated by a hostile or mismanaged government
