    Canada got rid of our digital services tax and it didn’t help. Don’t bother getting rid of anything Trump wants gone because it is just what a bunch of billionaires are telling him to do.

    Oddly billionaires probably told Mark Carney the same thing so he was happy to be rid of this DST.

      We have a saying in Dutch: “If you give him a finger, he will take your whole hand.”
      Appeasing Trump doesn’t work, because he will just demand more.

      Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) is a major global investor in digital infrastructure and services, with over $100 billion invested in AI-related infrastructure, digital connectivity, and clean energy to support it. Their holdings focus on the essential physical and digital “backbone” required for data storage, transmission, and AI computing.

      Lemmy really needs some critical thinking about Mark Carney. This is not a statesman.
