Reports that Canada and Mexico are set to be slapped with U.S. tariffs next week may be premature. That’s the latest word from the Trump administration.
The White House has clarified that North America-wide tariffs are not a done deal, as many news headlines suggested following remarks Monday by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The opening of a Canadian naval refuelling facility in the Arctic scheduled for later this year now appears to be in limbo.
The Nanisivik Naval Facility was announced in 2007 by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper as a new docking and refuelling installation that would support Royal Canadian Navy ships in Arctic operations. It was envisioned as operating year-round with a deep water port and airstrip to boost Canadian sovereignty in the region.
WTF??
Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford is musing about making Americans pay more for the electricity Ontario sends to the United States, in response to any levies President Donald Trump imposes on Canadian goods and services.
“We’re reviewing the cost of electricity we’re sending down there. And if he puts tariffs on anything in Canada or Ontario, they’re getting a tariff on their electricity,” Ford said at a campaign stop in Ottawa on Tuesday.
Should be fun when the US shuts down the Line 5 oil pipeline.
A south Edmonton split-level with a brick facade and a spruce out front is the unlikely Canadian headquarters of the Indian conglomerate the Srivastava Group.
Run by a New Delhi family, the company claims to have offices in Belgium, Switzerland and Canada, where it owns newspaper and oil and gas businesses.
But Canadian national security officials have alleged the Srivastava Group and its senior executive have also been involved in more secretive activities.
No one likes Justin.
A top White House official has proposed expelling Canada from the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing network as Donald Trump increases pressure on the country he talks about turning into the 51st US state.
Peter Navarro, one of the US president’s closest advisers, is pushing for the US to remove Canada from the Five Eyes — which also includes the UK, Australia and New Zealand — according to people familiar with his efforts inside the administration.

Anger, questions after Canadian terror group leader tweets from Hezbollah funeral
OTTAWA — As Israeli jets roared defiantly over Sunday’s Beirut funeral for a Hezbollah leader, a leader of a Canadian-based terror organization was among those paying tribute to the dead terrorist.
Charlotte Kates, a leader for the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network — considered a terrorist group by the Canadian government — posted tweets from the Beirut sports stadium used for the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah. Killed in an Israeli air strike, he was a founding member of the Lebanese terror group, Hezbollah.
Not anger just a cold desire to wreck the elites who turned Canada into a shithole.
Organizers of the FIFA Men’s World Cup in 2026 have requested pre-arranged access to medical care for athletes and VIPs at Toronto and Vancouver hospitals as part of both cities’ responsibility for the games.
According to a FIFA document outlining host city requirements, the organization is asking for the access in designated hospitals as well as a full range of medical specialist care, medication, and adequately qualified medical staff.
In simple terms, pre-arranged access means that FIFA aims to have a clearly designated hospital for athletes or VIPs seeking urgent emergency care after being evaluated at the stadium facilities.
So Mom bleeds on a gurney in the hallway while some Eurotrash gets his hangnail treated.
Jagmeet Singh says he’s “absolutely” the right person to lead New Democrats into the next election despite the party’s drop in support.
A recent Leger poll suggests the NDP stands at just 14 percent—and that its support would drop to 12 percent with Mark Carney as Liberal leader.
WASHINGTON, Feb 24 (Reuters) – Republican U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he wanted the Keystone XL Pipeline built and pledged easy regulatory approvals for the project, which was opposed for years by environmentalists before its permit was revoked by the Biden administration.
The pipeline was first proposed in 2008 to bring oil from Canada’s Western tar sands to U.S. refiners and was halted in 2021 by then-owner TC Energy Corp (TRP.TO), opens new tab after former Democratic President Joe Biden revoked a key permit needed for a U.S. stretch of the project.
For three years, Canadian officials used Inuit children as guinea pigs for an experimental RSV vaccination program – without parental consent and without the knowledge or involvement of the Inuit population. This shocking revelation, buried in newly uncovered Freedom of Information (FOI) emails, is completely unrelated to COVID-19 – yet it raises damning questions about the government’s approach to public health experiments on Indigenous communities and all Canadians.

The study imagines North America the way an engineer might, assuming that engineer was equipped with divine powers. First published in 1964, the concept of a North American Water and Power Alliance was an attempt to solve the design deficiencies of a continent that delivers great quantities of water to northern regions where few people live, while parching the sunny latitudes that provide an ideal home for suburbs and lettuce farms.
To fix it, some replumbing would be required, with the power of human technology – including, perhaps, nuclear-powered excavation – substituting for the tectonic forces that so badly misdirected natural water flows.
Organized burglary gangs blending sophistication with brute force are wintering in Canada from Latin America and Eastern Europe as “crime tourists,” coming to take advantage of early seasonal darkness and Canadian habits to ransack and loot homes.
Canada’s small and medium-sized businesses lost about $60 billion in the first year of pandemic lockdowns, says the country’s national statistical agency.
In a report published on Feb. 18, Statistics Canada said about 47 percent of all small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)—businesses with annual salary expenses of less than $1.5 million—“experienced a drop in gross profit, totalling a loss of nearly $60 billion” from 2019 to 2020.
President Trump offered Canadians the deal of a lifetime — to join the U.S. and be welcomed as equals, as full citizens with all the rights that status entails. Canadian business would have tariff-free access to the world’s largest market. Individual Canadians would instantly be better off by replacing the weak Canadian dollar with the greenback, by getting lower taxes, lower gas costs, lower housing costs, better health care, better everything.
President Trump hasn’t made so generous an offer to anyone else. Yet instead of feeling honored, and responding in a spirit of generosity, most Canadians reacted peevishly and belligerently.
In the shadows of Canada’s progressive image lies an unsettling truth: for decades, the country has operated as a revolving door for the world’s most dangerous individuals. While its leaders drape themselves in virtue, professing an open-arms approach to immigration, the consequences of their recklessness have landed squarely on the doorsteps of both Canada and the United States.
The cracks in this illusion are no longer hypothetical. They are now real, violent, and all too frequent. Whether through terrorist sympathizers who slip through the system unchecked or human smugglers exploiting the vast northern border, the consequences of Canada’s willful negligence are becoming impossible to ignore.
