  1. It says can include day trips. My suspicion is Canada is #9 only due to a lot of underage American kids coming over for our lower drinking age.
  2. No Bangkok isn't the new Paris but it is much closer for the Chinese to travel to.
  3. How about no visa without meeting the requirements?
  4. Outrageous , who do the Chinese think they are? Acting like the Americans https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hainan_Island_incident
  5. The Afrikaners also preferred retaining their apartheid system. It wasn't until a group of righteous states brought economic sanctions against them that the situation finally changed. Israel's electorate keeps moving farther right it seems so there is little likelihood there will be a will to change anytime soon unless there is severe international pressure applied.
  6. It boggles the mind that in a country were such enormous sums are spent on elections that this guy was vetted by somebody
  7. The court system in that country is a joke. Very reminiscent of that of Thailand
  8. Just wait for the loss of the EU financial services industry to fully kick in. It will likely be a basket case for at least a decade.
  9. As bad as Trump was he never baited Putin into war by advocating NATO membership for Ukraine like Biden did soon after being elected. Same as Bush with Georgia which resulted in that country losing 2 provinces. Clinton's involving the USA in the overthrow of the democratically elected government in Ukraine lead to it losing Crimea and much of the Donbas. The Republicans have a couple of things that will make it very difficult for them to win in 2024. That's besides not winning the popular presidential vote for 20 years. The court's abortion decision will increase the voter turnout against them. Young people in general hate the Republican party. If the Democrats run Biden again the GOP could win with a more moderate like the Georgia gov.
  10. But majority of voting Tory members thought the person pledging to give the billionaires the biggest tax cuts was the way to go.
  11. Care to explain that statement? I've lived most of my long life in Canada and unless your a conservative things have never been better in my view.
  12. Bad news for you fascists. Trudeau is only a year into his 3rd term. It will be nearly another 3 years till the Tories lose to him again.
  13. "The HUV has the particularity of offering interchangeable hydrogen tanks. Six interchangeable hydrogen tanks are added to the main tank and provide a range of 800 kilometres (500 mi). This system makes it easy to exchange the six removable tanks in a station without refueling the main tank, service stations for hydrogen being rare." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NamX_HUV
  14. The Chinese car manufacturer is producing a car that's swaps out batteries in about three minutes.
  15. I'm about 50/50 which way it goes. There is a chance it's a mixed result but that usually isn't how these things work themselves out. The railway I spent my career at has done extensive testing of a hydrogen fuel cell locomotive. They make their own hydrogen using a solar panel farm to produce the electricity to run the hydrogen production unit. It worked so well that they are now going to build a facility to produce hydrogen on a large scale. It looks very promising. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/bakx-hydrogen-ira-2023-cp-1.6713038 Congratulations to the German Social Democrat party for their very fast action in finding a solution to their energy needs.
  16. Yes the Yank empire is in it's twilight. Their corporate media propagandists can't change that as hard as they may try. Nothing illustrated that more than Biden's humiliating trip to Saudi where he left with his cap empty. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/15/world/middleeast/biden-mbs-saudi-visit.html
  17. He was likely hiding in plain sight like Kamnan Poh. When the Chonburi Godfather was supposedly on the run I saw him pull up in a Mercedes and park on Soi Diamond at Walking around noon. Got out and took a wealthy looking European man into a GoGo that was for rent. Business as usual while a nationwide manhunt for him was taking place.
  18. Sure sounds suspicious. I bet Ron will have a banging good time housed in a mental health facility.
  19. No doubt they will all fall in line once he wins the first few primaries
