Mark Carney has been claiming that we have the best trade deal in the world with the United States. Try telling that to the workers at the Stellantis plant in Brampton now facing permanent layoffs as production of the Jeep Compass moves from Ontario to Illinois.
It was just last week that Donald Trump’s commerce secretary, Howard Lutnick, told a Toronto business audience said that auto assembly jobs would move to the United States and Canada would need to be second.
Trump Considers Overhaul of Refugee System That Would Favor White People … Usual Racists Faint
The Trump administration is considering a radical overhaul of the U.S. refugee system that would slash the program to its bare bones while giving preference to English speakers, white South Africans and Europeans who oppose migration, according to documents obtained by The New York Times.
The proposals, some of which already have gone into effect, would transform a decades-old program aimed at helping the world’s most desperate people into one that conforms to Mr. Trump’s vision of immigration — which is to help mostly white people who say they are being persecuted while keeping the vast majority of other people out.
The Horror! The plans entail placing a new emphasis on whether applicants would be able to assimilate into the U.S., and to focus on Europeans.

Public grocery stores unlikely to bring down food prices, say economists and analysts
OTTAWA — NDP leadership candidate Avi Lewis is promising to lower grocery bills across the country by bringing in a national “public option” to compete with corporate supermarket chains, but economists say this could be a hard row to hoe for a meagre yield.
“I think it would be profoundly expensive, and very difficult to make succeed, for a relatively marginal benefit for Canadians,” said Mike von Massow, a professor of food, agriculture and resource economics at the University of Guelph.
