US seeks to use Alberta to destabilize Canada

The threat has shifted. While Europeans breathed a sigh of relief at US President Donald Trump’s recent retreat on Greenland, Canada has now become the target. The US administration has set its sights on the province of Alberta, an energy hub in western Canada that accounts for 90% of national oil production. “Alberta is a natural partner for the US,” declared Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on January 22 during his visit to Davos, Switzerland, as if referring to a fully sovereign state. Notably, he was responding to MAGA influencer Jack Posobiec, a prominent Christian nationalist. “People are talking. People want sovereignty. They want what the US has got,” Bessent noted.

Trump Fires Back at Frey: ‘Mayor and Governor Are Inciting Insurrection’

President Donald J. Trump delivered a forceful rebuke Saturday to Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, accusing both leaders of “inciting insurrection” through their handling of the Border Patrol agent‑involved shooting and the violent unrest that followed. In a sharply worded statement, Trump said state and local officials abandoned law enforcement, misled the public about the circumstances of the shooting, and are now attempting to shift blame onto federal agents as chaos engulfs the city.

The Narrative™ Is Being Set on Minneapolis Shooting; Trump: INSURRECTION; Sheriff: National Guard

Few people really know what exactly happened this morning in Minneapolis, and that certainly includes the governor and Mayor of Minneapolis.

Yet both of them started making statements blaming ICE for the shooting of an armed man who was resisting arrest, and seemed to be encouraging the citizens of Minneapolis to attack ICE because they are part of an “invasion” of the state.

WTF?

Can Middle Powers Like Canada Exist Between America and China?

As Donald Trump rampaged about in his first term, leadership of the free world was transferred, by general liberal acclamation, to Angela Merkel of Germany. She was cast as the embodiment of internationalist virtue: prudent, broad-minded, diplomatic, multilateralist and expertise-driven above all.

Then Trump left office, Merkel left office, and suddenly it was possible to notice that her leadership of Germany had been well-nigh disastrous.

The mismanaged eurozone crises that followed the crash of 2008 and her open door to Middle Eastern migrants both contributed mightily to the collapse of the very firewall against far-right parties she was supposedly maintaining. Much worse, she accepted, for enlightened environmentalist reasons, her country’s deindustrialization and an ever-increasing reliance on Russian oil and gas. And when Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine, it suddenly became clear that Merkel’s legacy wasn’t a strong alternative to Trump’s America; it was a weak European core threatened by and dependent upon an authoritarian rival to its east.

While Canada Cozies Up to China, Mexico Imposes Harsh Tariffs Due to Chinese Auto Dumping

In an attempt to figuratively poke Donald Trump and the United States in the eye, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney just announced that Canada is cozying up to China by slashing tariffs on imported Chinese EVs. The new tariff rate will be just 6.1 percent, opening up his country to 49,000 Chinese vehicles initially, and increasing to 70,000 in the coming years. China “reciprocated” by dropping the tariff on Canadian canola oil to 15 percent. Carney’s determination to strike a deal with China clearly put the Chinese in a very favorable negotiating position. It would behoove Mr. Carney to have a talk with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum about the perils of economic surrender to China, especially as it relates to Chinese auto imports.

From brutal blitz to guerrilla warfare: Imagining what a U.S. invasion of Canada might look like

There’s “effectively zero” chance the U.S. would invade Canada — but we must prepare for that contingency anyway, experts say.

The U.S. invasion of Canada would likely begin with a brutal blitz, before rising to a defiant insurgency.

Over the course of mere days, a co-ordinated series of surgical strikes by the U.S. military could decapitate Canada’s leadership, cripple its military, compromise key communication channels and paralyze the nation, national defence experts tell the Star.

But despite its early victories, the States would find it near impossible to hold Canada for long — especially if a hostile population decided to resist.

A defiant insurgency? And just who will take that on? The Hindus? The Mohammedans? The Sikhs?

Trump may be on your street soon!

Beijing’s Lying Liberals assure Trump: ‘no pursuit’ of free trade with China, after 100% tariff threat

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberal government is pushing back against U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest threat to impose 100 per cent tariffs on all Canadian imports if Ottawa makes a trade deal with China, insisting there is no deal in the works.

After Trump delivered the ultimatum on Saturday, Minister for Canada-U.S. Trade, Dominic LeBlanc, posted a response on X.

So what happened since last week to change Carney’s mind about his New World Order?

Pro-China Networks Amplified Carney’s Beijing Messaging to Attack U.S. Policy, Echoing a 2025 Election Pattern, Analyst Finds

OTTAWA — A social network analysis firm says Chinese state and pro-China accounts amplified Prime Minister Mark Carney’s statements across major Western platforms during his Jan. 14–17 trip to Beijing—praising Canada while using his remarks to criticize U.S. policy toward China—in geopolitical messaging that, Graphika’s data suggest, mirrors a pattern observed prior to the 2025 Canadian general election, when pro-China actors promoted Carney’s stance on U.S. tariffs to advance narratives aligned with China’s strategic goals.

This Carney Is a Clown: The Insufferable Cowardice of Canada

Our commitment to NATO’s Article 5 is unwavering, so we’re working with our NATO allies, including the Nordic Baltic Gate, to further secure the alliance’s northern and western flanks, including through Canada’s unprecedented investments in over-the-horizon radar, in submarines, in aircraft and boots on the ground, boots on the ice.

—Prime Minister Mark Carney, Jan. 20, 2026, Davos address

“Unwavering,” eh? Hmm, let me consult my Canadian-to-English dictionary… aha! Turns out “unwavering” is Canadian for “underfunded by freeriding, Maple syrup-slurping cheapskates”: Canada hasn’t honored its 2% NATO defense spending agreement in nearly 40 years!

Canada-Trump tensions grow after Carney ‘rupture’ speech

Tensions between the United States and Canada have rapidly escalated this week after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered a rousing speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday, declaring a “rupture” in the old world order and calling on “middle powers” to unite.

The once jovial public relationship between Carney and President Trump has descended into a barbed back-and-forth, with Trump on Friday disinviting Canada from his Board of Peace, which Ottawa was already hesitant to join.

Aaron Ettinger, a political science associate professor at Carleton University in Ottawa, said the relationship was “on a precipice.”

Stuck between the US and Russia, Canada must prove it can defend its Arctic territory

Canada’s Arctic is a massive, treacherous, and largely inhospitable place, stretched out over nearly 4 million square kilometres of territory – but with a small population roughly equal to Blackburn in England or Syracuse, New York.

“You can take a map of continental Europe, put it on the Canadian Arctic, and there’s room to spare,” Pierre Leblanc, the former commander of the Canadian Forces Northern Area told the BBC. “And that environment is extremely dangerous.”

A 39-second clip showed about half a dozen cops struggling with someone on the sidewalk in front of a donut shop at 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue, when the gunfire erupted.

America should withdraw from NATO immediately

Trump’s “Board of Peace” might sound ridiculous, and perhaps it is. But it’s no more ridiculous than claiming NATO is a board of peace.

That phrase now circulates in respectable company, with a straight face, as though repetition alone could make it true. It cannot. NATO was not born as a peace club, but as a military alliance with a narrow defensive purpose — specifically, to prevent the Soviet Union from rolling tanks across Western Europe.
