To Mexican companies, the rule was never much of a problem, largely ignored by the American authorities, especially along a border where cultures had always mixed.
But to the Trump administration, it is a point of critical road safety that went too long unaddressed.
The issue? English.
The legal use of force to defend yourself extends back to the beginning of human civilization. However, significant differences have arisen in different legal systems over how much force is justified and in what circumstances.
Modern-day Canada and the United States have some overlap in legal use of force for self-defence but differ significantly when it comes to the castle doctrine, a law adopted in some U.S. states allowing use of lethal force in protecting one’s home and, in some cases, property such as vehicles.
Ukraine’s President Volodymr Zelensky has accused Russia of “doing everything it can” to prevent a meeting with Vladimir Putin to try to end the war.
US President Donald Trump has sought to bring the two leaders together, but he said on Friday “that’s like oil and vinegar… they don’t get along too well”.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Putin was ready to meet Ukraine’s leader “when the agenda is ready for a summit, and this agenda is not ready at all”, accusing Zelensky of saying “no to everything”.
Here’s what Canada’s latest immigration data reveals
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government has revealed the closely watched statistics on permanent and temporary resident trends after being accused for weeks by the Conservatives of withholding the data.
On Friday, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada updated its webpages with data on arrivals of asylum claimants, international students and foreign workers, as well as applications caught up in the department’s backlog.
Although there are still more than 2.2 million immigration applications awaiting a decision, the number of temporary residents — made up of international students, foreign workers and refugee claimants — declined in the first six months of 2025, compared to the same period last year.
Declined? Not by any material amount. Carney and his pal Wiseman are screwing us over as expected. It is an act of evil.

This is not immigration, it is population replacement.
The family of a missing Texas woman found living with a lost “African” tribe in the Scottish Highlands fear she has been manipulated by the “king and queen” and are growing concerned over her well-being.
Kaura Taylor, who now goes by Asnat, Lady Safi, of Atehene, has been living in the Kingdom of Kubala, a claimed section of forest in Jedburgh, Scotland, with husband and wife duo, King Atehene and Queen Nandi.
Pierre Poilievre won the seat that sends him back to Parliament this week to face Mark Carney. We asked two writers what changes for each of the two leaders now.
It’s been a while since I’ve heard anyone say the phrase “elbows up.” That patriotic statement raised the spirits of Canadians when still absorbing the shock of a hostile U.S President. Mark Carney embraced “elbows up” along with a plucky “build, baby,’ build” mantra.
Judging by the results of the election, the slogans played well. And Carney continued on a roll as Prime Minister through diplomacy abroad and engaging provincial premiers at home. But now, Carney faces a more prolonged test in a less comfortable setting — the daily grind and closer scrutiny of a sitting Parliament.
The US Department of Justice has released the transcript and audio recording of an interview conducted by Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, with the convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.
In a post on X, Blanche said the materials were being released “in the interest of transparency”, providing links to the transcript and to audio files.
The release includes documentation from a two-day interview conducted on 24 and 25 July. The materials comprise redacted transcripts for both days, along with multiple audio recordings – seven separate parts plus test recordings for day one, and four parts plus test recordings for day two.
Fugitive arrested at Toronto airport for crash that killed Manitoba mother, daughter: RCMP
A man who avoided Canadian authorities for more than nine months after being accused of driving a semi-trailer truck through a stop sign, causing a crash that killed a Manitoba mother and daughter, was arrested at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport on Thursday.
Navjeet Singh, 25, had been wanted since November for two counts of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death and one count of obstructing a police officer.
Lucy Connolly has accused Sir Keir Starmer of holding her as a political prisoner in her first interview following her release from jail.
Mrs Connolly, 42, a childminder from Northampton, said it was “bizarre” she had spent more than a year behind bars for posting a tweet inciting racial hatred in the wake of the Southport murders.
Mrs Connolly, a mother of two, explained she was “upset and angry beyond belief” and that a “red mist” had clouded her judgment. She accepted the post on X was not her “finest moment” but insisted she did not “advocate violence”.
Just a little more than year out, Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow has revealed she’s not sure if she will seek re-election.
Her uncertainty on whether to seek another term had light shined on it Friday morning while she was appearing on Newstalk 1010.

Prosecutions for stirring up “racial hatred” through social media posts have reached record levels in Britain, triggering calls for urgent reform of the law amid growing fears for freedom of expression.
Ministry of Justice figures show a dramatic rise over the past decade. In 2015, just one person was convicted of the offence under the Public Order Act. By 2024, that number had surged to 44.
Almost a third of all convictions in the past ten years were recorded last year alone, following nationwide unrest in the wake of the Southport stabbings.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney said it’s no longer time for “elbows up” as he announced Friday that Canada will remove retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods covered by the existing trade agreement between the countries minus those on steel, aluminum and autos.
Carney said the move was designed to match the U.S. decision not to levy tariffs on goods that are compliant with the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), saying the countries had restored free trade on a “vast majority of our goods.”
Canadians got played.
8 months of fear, lies & elbows-up theatre manufactured to re-elect the Liberals.
Carney’s presser today exposed it all
43% voted Conservative & tried to warn the rest

A Nigerian father whose asylum claim was rejected three times has been allowed to stay in Britain after belatedly arguing he is gay.
The man, who has been granted anonymity, first arrived in the UK in 1983 but overstayed and left nine years later.
He returned in 1996 and made several failed asylum bids, including on the basis of political opinion and later through marriage to a Portuguese woman.
Canada is just as stupid in fact worse as we have a dedicated program for importing Gay Refugees etc.
