Canola Oil Chuck123 05/03/2026 11:18 AM
Canola Oil is actually an oil crushed from the [laboratory][selected breeding] product of the Rape Seed.

It was not marketed as RAPE SEED OIL due to the strong suspicion that folks with religiously feeble minds would oppose the product.
The plant was developed by the University of Manitoba.

The Prime Minister of Canada at the time John G Diefenbaker. He was from the prairies and was pissed as rape seed was perfectly good name.

"We do not need Canada!" DJ Trump" The fact is that the US uses Canola, products that used it were labelled as such, and the fact that is was Canadian was NEVER hidden.

"Dief the Chief" was BSed by Eisenhower to cancel the CF-105 Avro Arrow. It was designed to fly at Mach 2.8.
It actually flew at Mach 2.4 in 1958 with a smaller engine sourced form the US.
It was cancelled in February 1959. (The Orenda designed Iroquois engine was still under development.)

The reason was that the CF-105 could over fly the U-2 Spy plane. It had a higher ceiling.

Since the US does not need Canada, they have started selling to other countries.

This means that when is US wants to buy stuff Canada will give the "Ole Mother Hubbard" excuse. [Ain't got none!]

Canada is Mean and Nasty. Canada is unfair. Canada has been leeching on the US. Roger that!

The fact is that is US will not need as much cooking oil, without Canadian fertilizer US farm yields will crater.

Note: The Avro engineers now unemployed were scooped up by NASA
The US got the moon with the expertise of Canadian and British engineers.

Trump just made a quick $300 Million. Fahrenheit451 05/03/2026 04:29 AM
Remember how Trump said that "Big beautiful new ballroom would be paid by private donors and not taxpayers"

Well Lindsay Graham is going to make sure that Congress enacts a bill that allows for $400 million to pay for it. (Ie: the taxpayers foot the bill)

Trump WILL just pocket the $300 million his foundation took on donations so far.

Enjoy you golden ballroom Chuck. Too bad you won't be allowed entry. The ballroom will only be for your political masters and overlords.

This man is just tired of Donald Trump
