  1. “The tariffs announced last night by President Trump on many Canadian goods are being imposed under s.338 of the so-called Smoot Hawley Act. They have not been used in 96 years in this way.

    They have been imposed by Presidential proclamation, which is how Trump rolls and rules these days.

    As the Canadian comes home this morning, they can hold their heads high. Canada couldn’t sign a deal the Americans tried to change at the last minute. Ask anyone who has done business with Donald Trump. That’s how he does it.“

  2. “Canada’s jobs numbers beat economists’ expectations in July, while the unemployment rate fell to its lowest level in two years, Statistics Canada said on Friday.

    The agency’s labour force survey said Canada added a surprising 75,000 jobs in July, blowing past expectations of economists in a Reuters poll, which predicted a modest 15,000-job gain. Those jobs were split between full- and part-time work.“

    Cry more, Donnie.

    Ummm:

    "The lawmakers threatened that the United States may send its agencies into Canada to manage the problem if Canadian officials don’t address it more vigorously."

    Another flavour of invasion threat.

  5. Canadian journalist directly calls out and pins US Ambassador Hoekstra.

    His answers are ridiculous, especially complaining that there “were only two countries that responded negatively to the US.”, and that the US is “willing to do business with Canada… that would be good for the US and good for Canada”. As if.

    "The Leonard Cohen Estate has learned that the song 'Hallelujah' is to be performed at a Donald Trump rally on June 24," the Facebook post read. "This use is not authorized, and the Estate does not support or approve of this or any similar usage. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

    Looks like some Canadians are going to teach Trump about consent, whether he likes it or not.

    As an aside, pretty funny that Trump wanted to use music from a Canadian artist for the “USA Freedom 250” rally.

    Next he’ll be wanting to use K.D. Lang’s indisputably perfect version from Canada’s hosting of the Olympics.

  7. “The evidence of foreign interference in the attempt to break up our country is becoming too obvious to ignore. We are witnessing a repetition of patterns that were used in Donbas and Brexit.

    And yet there seems to be no sense of urgency from government officials over the emerging evidence of offshore bad actors and direct interference coming from the United States regarding the Alberta referendum.

    Earlier this month, I made a public call for Anton Boegman, the new Commissioner of Foreign Influence and Transparency, to investigate the allegations.

    Specifically, I asked him to look into the meetings held by White House officials and a group of Alberta separatists. According to media reports, there was discussion of a $500 million fund to help the separatist cause.“

  8. You might think, based on the volume of her Facebook posts, that Nieta Aqila is an Albertan who supports separation. What should be done with foreign oligarchs fomenting sedition? 🤔🧐 #cdnpoli #never51 #ElbowsUp #ForeignInterference #Meta #Tech #billionaires #sedition www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
