    The Tarriff Hype.

    And that’s a huge problem in Canada, but is it a huge problem in the US? Citing U.S. Customs and Border Protection data, the White House has asserted that 43 pounds of fentanyl was intercepted at the northern border last fiscal year, marking a “massive 2,050 per cent increase” compared with the...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Fentanyl arriving to the U.S. from Canada was not mentioned in a report released Tuesday that outlines what the U.S. intelligence community considers the most direct, serious threats to the country, despite President Donald Trump claiming that illicit drugs coming through the northern border are...

    We can take it out of this whole carbon tax bullshit scheme that they’ve been sucking out of us for the last seven years.

    Ottawa to remove many federal exceptions from Canadian Free Trade Agreement

    China’s retaliation? Canadians boycotting American products? A century of relations down the toilet? The potential cancellation of the F35 contract, or 80% of it anyway?

    Regina refinery explosion injures 10

    At home, we both heard this this morning at exactly 4:45am on the alarm clock. I never thought of the upgrader when we heard the noise and felt the house rattle. It wasn’t an explosion like a boom, & it sounded more like the bucket on a large payloader being slammed flat into the ground. We do...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    As a veteran of many leaders’ debates, I can say the “Face-à-Face” was easily the most lively and polished. Because in “Face- à -Face,” you actually debate. You have to be on your toes and at the top of your game. Instead of putting the kibosh on it, it should be a model. Debating in the round...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Tariffs were top of mind for many of the farmers at the show. China recently introduced 100 per cent tariffs on Canadian canola oil and canola meal. That move is seen as a tit-for-tat measure in response to Canada's 100 per cent tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles. Meanwhile, America is...

    Ottawa to remove many federal exceptions from Canadian Free Trade Agreement

    Never been able to wear one of those. I can wear a helmet, hard hat, bandanna, etc…but never a ball cap ‘cuz it bugs me how much it limits my vision. The Conservatives might be right when they argue that Carney is the wrong port in a storm. It is certainly hard to look at our dire economic...

    Ottawa to remove many federal exceptions from Canadian Free Trade Agreement

    Why didn’t this happen in the last nine years? While Canada is rich in resources and opportunity, we are constrained by outdated regulatory frameworks that hinder progress. In 1956, the construction of the 2,300 km TransCanada Mainline took approximately two years. Today, natural gas...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    Liberal Leader Mark Carney lost the first French-language debate before it even started. The most-watched French-language network in Quebec organizes a parallel event to the French and English-language debates organized by the Leaders’ Debates Commission, both of which Carney will still...

    The U.S. was the second-largest destination for Venezuelan crude last year, importing about 233,000 bpd, according to Kpler.😳 Holy Crap! Trumps going to tariff America? (India purchased about 61,000 bpd and Spain bought nearly 60,000 bpd in 2024) http://apple.news/AGvEW0O8qSL6e10PejI_HoA

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    Liberal Leader Mark Carney has declined to participate in a French-language debate with the other federal party leaders on TVA, causing the broadcaster to cancel the program.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    President Donald Trump said Monday that the U.S. will impose 25% tariffs on countries that buy oil and gas from Venezuela, as he seeks to increase pressure on President Nicolas Maduro and China. Countries that buy oil and gas from Venezuela will face tariffs on any trade they have with the...
