That's exactly how long you can stay in the country under the visa waver program.

If you have to stay longer you can get a B1/B2 visa.

This whole DeepSeek freakout seems like an Op by the AI grifters to get more money. "We have to defeat China at the new AI space race!"

The thing is I don't drive unless I'm carrying stuff, so a car without cargo space isn't useful.

Minivans are the best. I own a DGC built in Ottawa. Reliable AF. Huge cargo capacity. Gets 21MPG on the highway. Basically use it as a truck, but it's way more practical than a truck because the cargo capacity is more and your stuff doesn't get wet when it rains.

Only real downsize is tow capacity.

That's the thing, Canada is mostly a raw materials exporter and the main importer is US industry.

It'd basically be like when China tried to "Wolf-warrior" Australia and ended up with coal, pork and grain shortages.

Just going to leave this right here:

Dem's donors are telling them to stand down because they think Trump will be good for business (cutting taxes, eliminating antitrust enforcement, cutting back consumer protection and workers rights, etc).

It's the old Designated Villain

https://www.salon.com/2010/02/23/democrats_34/

One minute, it's Jay Rockefeller as the Prime Villain leading the way in protecting Bush surveillance programs and demanding telecom immunity; the next minute, it's Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer joining hands and "breaking with their party" to ensure Michael Mukasey's confirmation as Attorney General; then it's Big Bad Joe Lieberman single-handedly blocking Medicare expansion; then it's Blanche Lincoln and Jim Webb joining with Lindsey Graham to support the de-funding of civilian trials for Terrorists; and now that they can't blame Lieberman or Ben Nelson any longer on health care (since they don't need 60 votes), Jay Rockefeller voluntarily returns to the Villain Role, stepping up to put an end to the pretend-movement among Senate Democrats to enact the public option via reconciliation.
