Remember when the oil companies were saying if they didn’t get their pipelines or w/e they were going to move their operations elsewhere (as if the oil wasn’t, you know, in a fixed location)? Well guess what it doesn’t make a diff where they are because they are just transferring money to the U.S.
“Rather than reinvesting those profits in the Canadian economy, the four companies paid out $79.7 billion in dividends and share buybacks, nearly ¾ of which went to foreign shareholders, including 62% to American shareholders.”

used as nurse crops for broadleaves, so a mixed conifer and hardwood plantation would after thinning become a pure hardwood, many Beech woods were planted in this way. We should view the resulting hardwood 'high forest' as a plantation. although potentially a biodiverse one.

Now trump is blaming President Biden for the shooting in DC. Blaming the the ending in Afghanistan on Biden when the withdrawal was planned by trump. He has never taken responsibility for anything he’s done or caused.

From 1819 to 1969, US Govt stole tens of thousands of Indigenous kids—forcing them to convert to Christianity & stripping them of their identities. Resistance was met with violence. Sexual abuse was rampant.
