Treating this as an unstoppable race, and accepting the "endgame" of runaway warming, is a reckless gamble that should never be decided in a boardroom alone. Betting on future carbon removal to fix today's emissions requires far more confidence than the evidence supports.

Canadians must BOYCOTT 🇺🇸 vehicles this fall. Let them rot on the lot. Tell the dealers why you won’t buy 🇺🇸 vehicles!
Remember if the VIN (serial #) begins with:
1, 4 or 5 = 🇺🇸 ❌
2 = 🇨🇦 ✔️
3 = 🇲🇽 ✔️
J = 🇯🇵 ✔️
W = 🇩🇪 ✔️
K = 🇰🇷 ✔️
Google others…
But #BoycottUSA built vehicles. They should be toxic to 🇨🇦!

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.
