So what is everyone's thought on these new tarriffs being pushed against Canada, Mexico, and China?

Do you think Trump's strategy will work?

Didn't we just shut down political discussions here?

Even though the discussions may be innocent, it usually turns bad in the long run.

As a Canadian, I agree. Not the place for this type of content.

I believe your closest neighbours should be allies, not competitors or enemies. This seems will push Mexico and Canada (!) closer to China....
And it could be a domino effect...

If you want to hear that they are (mostly) great from a bunch of people who think he is their Santa Claus, try asking this in FIDO Politics.

If you want a somewhat better discussion with people who are posting using
an alias (like here), try Dovenet Debate.

HI there

Thanks for the info. Yep this was a planned outage... I posted over in the fsxNet Admin echo that my systems would be down for around a day due to a planned power cut in my neighborhood.

Power is back on :)

They cut it around 8am and had it back around 1pm but I shutdown stuff last night and it's now 6pm next day as I reply. I have just restarted my systems.

Lines company changed out a power pole further up my street.. so yeps.. the joys..

Sorry buddy, just wondering what everyone's thoughts were.

Probably best to keep it out of here as mentioned...

Just gets you fueled when you see some of this non sense. :s

I think the last line sums up why the general feeling here is for country politics to reside in othernets..

Yep all good and thanks for the reply/assist..
