    Heat, wildfire smoke combine to create dangerous conditions across southwestern Ontario

    “Unless you want to become the 51st state, learn to manage your forests,” scolded Aric Nesbitt, a Republican state senator in Michigan on July 16. The same day, a Michigan member of Congress issued an all-caps “final warning” to Canada, informing us that “sovereignty comes with responsibility.”...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Had me curious so I watched part of the above so far. This is a cooperative defense agreement, right? Like Saudi Arabia & Pakistan? Or Kuwait and Pakistan? Or Nato members with other Nato members (defensive & not offensive here)? Or the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) which is basically most of...

    The Donroe Doctrine

    I assumed Trump slush funds for his family and billionaire golf buddies, etc…but why not the Jews or the Free Masons or the Shriners? Sure assume Trump didn’t volunteer to pay for half of the Gordie Howe Bridge. If I can assume, so can you.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    “Mexico and Canada need us, we don’t need them,” he also said, adding CUSMA is “not important for us.” Etc…In June, Trump told reporters he wasn’t looking to renew the deal and said “we don’t need anything” Canada nor Mexico has. At the time, CTV News political commentator Tom Mulcair chalked it...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Netanyahu is up for reelection and is embattled in part because of his deteriorating relationship with Trump. Trump is under pressure to end an unpopular war that has wreaked economic havoc and driven prices higher ahead of midterm elections this November. http://apple.news/A6mfIJrLZSOKb5lW64bRfYg

    Gordie Howe Bridge is open!

    Canada paid for the construction of this bridge in its entirety, in the deal that it had between Canada and Michigan (not Trump), so it should see some revenue. The ambassador bridge is privately owned. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambassador_Bridge

    The Donroe Doctrine

    President Trump still won’t say where exactly the $13 billion of Venezuelan oil revenue that his administration collected has gone. “There’s some reports that the United States has taken in $13 billion from Venezuela,” a reporter asked Trump at the Air Force One press gaggle on Monday...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Yeah, well, 75 years of being surrounded by hostile neighbours bent on your destruction has made Israel a little brutal. Israel's not guiltless either of course, I think its behaviour in the West Bank in particular is unconscionable, but it does draw humanitarian lines its enemies do not. It...

    Gordie Howe Bridge is open!

    Very glad to see this stay come. It’s a much much better deal toll wise than the Ambassador Bridge, and it’s a straight shot in to that bridge from real highways. (I already made up my fax, cover letters for Brokers for the common ones in the east for this Border Crossing last Friday)

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Following 13 successive nights of intensifying bombing that provoked Tehran to fire on U.S. bases in response, Trump halted the campaign over the weekend. Iran said it would suspend its own attacks for as long as the U.S. pause endures. The end of the U.S. bombing campaign sent oil prices...
