    April Election 2025

    Carleton is the riding where Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is running for the eighth time. And Mark Carney, the Liberal leader who has never held elected office anywhere and, like Poilievre, has roots in faraway Alberta, is seeking a seat in the next-door constituency of Nepean. The two...

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    This from the CBC even…😁 Two Liberal Party staffers attended last week's Canada Strong and Free Networking (CSFN) Conference where they planted buttons that used Trump-style language and highlighted division within the Conservative Party. The conference, often referred to by its former name...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    The wars in Ukraine and Gaza are not isolated regional conflicts. They are existential battles that will determine the future of the world order. In both cases, authoritarian forces — Russia in Ukraine, Iran and its proxies in the Middle East — are testing the resolve of western democracies...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Isn’t India the I in BRICS? Isn’t Saudi Arabia one of the countries interested in BRICS membership? As far as the claim that China’s entire economy is based upon US trade, isn’t that another Trump tale? “And oil market?” http://apple.news/AeQ-9OGDzRT6G68o-sVWeJw The world's two largest...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    And China, and Russia, & India, and Poland, & the UK, and Singapore, & Hong Kong, etc…America isn’t even in the top five as far as I could see you, but the numbers are all over the place and so are the purchasing years. Who’s going to fire the first missile? Is Turkey a NATO western allied...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Aren’t those all BRICS nations? I thought they were toast? There’s something called controlled growth. You can’t just throw a switch, & Poof!! Trump flex makes the globe different overnight, cause big things take time to change direction. I’m in shipping (land, not sea), and there’s a shortage...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    What’s the unintended consequence of this? Does Japan own Chinese made bulk ships? Whose ships will Japan make first? How fast can they replace them if this is the case? If so, what happens in the meantime (?) and where do foreign (to Japan) shippers fall on the list? That’s just off the top of...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    Like Trump in his first term, what’s Carney’s political experience? Somewhere around zero or close to it. Unlike Trump (or Carney), Poilievre has a couple of decades of political experience.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    The BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) have achieved significant economic growth and increased global influence since their formation in 2009. BRICS' collective GDP in terms of Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) has overtaken the G7's, and they now represent a substantial...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    About four hundred posts back here, this came up. How quickly can Japan replace all of China’s bulk ships? Anyway, as currently drafted, the new rules would have a devastating impact not just on China, but would harm almost all companies and and anlmost all countries that rely on marine...

    Have You Been Polled?

    Well, it is weird, and interesting, & just over two weeks until the actual election… Poilievre is campaigning for Canada, & Carney is campaigning against Trump, but when Trump hasn’t done something boneheaded in the media in a few days (it has happened a few times now), Carney retreats from...

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    Of the five guys below, Poilievre, Blanchet, & Singh have been elected by the voters in their electoral ridings, and represent their constituents as their Member of Parliament. The other two dudes bookending them just haven’t.

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    This just sounds like the carbon tax scam from day 1.

    Apparently, it’s not just the last two elections, but the current one also, & as long as it benefits the Liberals…🤫

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    The great Liberal myth-making machine has fabricated the fairytale that Carney was responsible for managing Canada’s economy through the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 when he was governor of the Bank of Canada. This (Canada’s) country’s central banker in practice sets the prime interest...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    The exclusions, published late Friday by US Customs and Border Protection, narrow the scope of the levies by excluding the products from Trump’s 125% China tariff and his baseline 10% global tariff on nearly all other countries. The exclusions apply to smartphones, laptop computers, hard drives...

    Pierre Poilievre

    This is interesting in a “Let’s protest the guy & party that hasn’t been in power the last decade….because electoral reform that the Liberals promised & didn’t deliver upon three consecutive elections?” Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will be facing more opponents than ever in his eighth...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    All the scrutiny and questions may be getting a bit too much for Mark Carney as he suspends his campaign for a third time. http://apple.news/AvY9mBbkySdyPesHridv13w Carney has clearly been irritated and put his “elbows up” after being questioned about a number of controversies swirling around...
