I’m sure the editor who wrote that headline got a good giggle out of that.

World News@lemmy.world•‘Tariff shockwave’ leads to collapse in ocean container bookingsEnglish
14·8 months agoI work in international freight and my department focuses on the U.S. - Canadian border. We’ve been bracing for a decline but so far our volume has been steadily increasing.
I see the documents for every shipment crossing my assigned gateway and it looks like consumer goods are staying at the same volume, but B2B is increasing. So while Canadian consumers are boycotting American goods, industry is reliant on American parts to continue functioning.
I’m assuming the increased volume is a result of companies buying things that they know they will need in the future before the trade war intensifies and those same parts cost them even more.
As a non-Catholic American, I have the same worry for the global geopolitics. It just so happens that the united states is part of those geopolitics.

30·8 months agoHim being dead wouldn’t be the only reason. If he’s allowed back to the U.S. he’d be subject to our laws about treatment of prisoners and there’s a good chance he would get word out about how bad it is in that south American concentration camp. They know they can’t let that happen.

World News@lemmy.world•The U.S. has covertly destabilized nations. With Canada, it's being done in publicEnglish
8·9 months agoAnti-trump American here, I work in international freight with my primary focus on the U.S. & Canadian border. I have a bunch of contacts in Canada who I speak with regularly, and ever since shitler was sworn in again they all report the country unifying. Hell one contact said he’s seen people from other provinces defending Quebec. Shitler has unified the other provinces with Quebec… that’s the defcon level we’re at here people…lol.
Agreed, in my early 20’s I applied for a job with the TSA. After passing the interview I had to take a test to determine if I was fit for the job, before I could take the test I had to be cleared for confidential clearance. So even though I didn’t pass the test, and didn’t get the job, I had a low level government clearance and an NDA that kept me from disclosing what I saw.
Funny enough that clearance did come in handy when I had to get an FBI background check to work at the airport doing line service, the guy who did the paperwork was shocked at how fast my paperwork was given the all clear.
