If Trump’s trade target is a customs union, Canada will have a big decision to make

The Canadian government failed to reach a trade deal with the United States before the Aug. 1 deadline. As a result, U.S. President Donald Trump increased the blanket tariff on imports of Canadian goods from 25 per cent to 35 per cent, while tariffs on steel, aluminum and some automotive imports have remained unchanged. Crucially, the so-called “CUSMA exemption” on goods that are compliant with the existing Canada-U.S.-Mexico trade agreement has also remained in place.

They want the arctic protected, natural resources and to sell Quebec to Louisiana. OK maybe not Louisiana.

Annexation or a mix of desirable independent former provinces may be their solution.

Canada was destroyed by our elites through mass immigration.

Does anyone want to fight for our 3rd World GTA?

Germans will fight for their right to drive at 259mph

A Bugatti driver made headlines in 2021 by reaching that claimed speed in the land which invented the car. But do voters still agree with no limits?

On German autobahns, 120mph tends to be a cruise, 140mph is getting a move on and 160mph and beyond is for when you’re really in a hurry.

Yet occasionally even petrolheads who make pilgrimages on the famously laissez-faire motorway network are obliged to slow down — like on a short stretch of the A2 outside Magdeburg, where the driver of a Porsche Panamera neglected to notice there was a 75mph restriction.

Officers said he had been clocked at 199mph, which, they noted, was considerably over the limit. The driver emerged from the incident with only a fine of €900 and two points on his licence.

Ryan Wedding may have gone under the knife, FBI says

They’ve remodelled their noses, smoothed out their wrinkles, and filled their faces with silicone. However, for these fugitives, the goal wasn’t to regain an air of youthfulness, but an attempt at freedom.

That appears be in the case in the ongoing manhunt for ex-Olympian-turned-drug lord Ryan Wedding, sought by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation for allegedly running a cross-border drug trafficking ring that routinely smuggled enormous quantities of cocaine into Canada and orchestrated multiple murders in Ontario.

Grooming Gangs: Police officer sex abuse claims to be investigated

The National Crime Agency (NCA) will take over an investigation into allegations that South Yorkshire Police officers sexually abused children in Rotherham.

The BBC reported in July that five women who were exploited by grooming gangs as children have said they were also abused by police officers in the town in the 1990s to early 2000s.

South Yorkshire Police (SYP) initially said it would look at the claims, but subsequently faced calls to be removed from the investigation in the interests of transparency.

A Pay Raise for Canada’s Military to Boost Recruitment and Retention

Canada’s top military commander, however, says other measures will also be needed to keep people enlisted. – Code for more Trannies

On Friday I found myself in an oversize hangar with an even more imposing C-17 Globemaster cargo plane sitting outside of it. Prime Minister Mark Carney made his way to Canadian Forces Base Trenton to fill in the details of the boost of two billion Canadian dollars that will be given annually to the military’s payroll.

Eight feral girls participated in the fatal swarming of a homeless man. None of them will serve additional jail time

The punishments meted out to those who take someone else’s life are not supposed to be seen as measures of the value of that lost life. We should not infer that a life is worth more, for example, if a killer is sentenced to 25 years, as opposed to 10 years, or five years, or just a couple of years of probation. Punishments are supposed to be about the circumstances of a crime, about aggravated and mitigating factors, about the principles of denunciation and distribution, about rehabilitation and retribution, and about public safety. The inherent worth of the lost life, really, has nothing to do with it.

The Star: America Bad!

The hostile reaction of U.S. lawmakers to Canadian forest fires reveals more about U.S.-Canada relations than any stack of trade statistics

If your neighbour’s house catches on fire, what do you do? Do you shout over the fence, telling her to keep the ruckus down? Do you complain that the smoke wafting into your backyard is making it hard for you to enjoy the evening?

I sure hope not. If you’re a decent person, or just a basically normal person, you do whatever you can to help. You try to make sure everything’s being done to fight the blaze and everyone’s being taken care of. You’d expect your neighbour to do the same if it happened to you.

Campaign mistakes were made, but none that ‘changed the outcome,’ says top Conservative operative

OTTAWA — Three months after the federal election, Pierre Poilievre’s top advisor Jenni Byrne has broken her silence over the party’s failed bid to form government.

Byrne, a top Conservative operative and Poilievre ally, has been praised for her role in the party leader’s meteoric rise in the polls during the Justin Trudeau era but also criticized for her role in the last federal election that saw the Liberals elected once again.

Migrant hotel protests LIVE: Protestors chant ‘Keir Starmer is a w*****’ as tensions erupt

Tensions are high across the UK today with demonstrations outside migrant hotels planned for multiple locations, with tensions flaring in Nuneaton as anti-racism protesters incurred the wrath of passing locals, with chants of “Keir Starmer’s a w*****”. Other demonstrations are underway in places including Bristol and Newark, after similar protests on Friday night. Last night, Express.co.uk’s Lotti O’Brien was on the spot outside the Britannia Hotel in London, where police arrested two people, one anti-asylum protester for allegedly throwing a bottle, and one a pro-migrant demonstrator for refusing to remove a facemask. Large crowds also gathered outside other hotels in locations including Epping, Leeds, Portsmouth and Rugby.

‘People are angry’: Behind the wave of asylum hotel protests

“We are not happy with these men in this hotel because we fear for our children,” Orla Minihane tells me. “If that makes me far right then so be it.”

Orla has lived near Epping since she was a child and describes herself as a “very boring woman who has worked in the City of London for 25 years”. Last year she joined Reform UK and hopes to stand as a local candidate for the party.

On a busy road leading to the Essex town, The Bell Hotel, now fortified, is one of more than 200 across the country where the government houses asylum seekers.

The BBC is as bad as CBC.

Ford & Carney now trying to salvage relationship they trashed with Mexico after falling out with Trump

This will win hearts and minds.

Canada is trying to salvage its relationship with Mexico after falling out with Trump: analysts

MEXICO CITY – Prime Minister Mark Carney is scrambling to save his country’s relationship with Mexico after it disintegrated late last year when Canadian officials suggested they’d be better off negotiating a trade deal with the Trump administration alone.

Carney attempted to break the ice in a phone call with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum in July by complimenting an indigenous-made soccer ball she had gifted him at their last meeting and saying he hoped to visit Mexico soon.

The warm overture, relayed to Reuters by three people familiar with the call, highlights Canada’s attempt to repair the damage after a string of public slights by Canadian officials, including Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who said in November that any comparison of Canada to Mexico was “the most insulting thing I’ve ever heard.”
