LILLEY: Ottawa’s latest tariffs mean higher prices and more questions

Thinking about buying a new fridge? Thanks to Ottawa’s latest tariffs, it may have just become more expensive, along with the meat, fish, and beer you keep inside.

On Tuesday, the Carney government announced a barrage of new tariffs on nearly $28 billion worth of American goods.

Canada has revealed its counter-tariffs, and we can likely expect further trade measures from the United States.

I don’t think it far fetched to suggest Carney did not want a deal with the US and may prefer to partner with China as many of his Eurotrash pals do.

He’ll get rich either way.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney just declared economic "war" on the United States over Trump's 50% tariffs. But this isn't really about trade. Look at who Carney is. He's one of the most powerful supporters of the Great Reset that Trump is trying to destroy.

And look who he… pic.twitter.com/EuTTkQYvOU

Mexico’s Pamplona turns into a bloodbath with two killed and 11 gored in bull-running disaster

Two people have been killed and another 11 injured in the Mexican version of Pamplona’s famous Running of the Bulls festival.

Horrifying footage captured in the state of Tlaxcala, around 100 miles east of Mexico City, showed people getting killed and seriously hurt during the Huamantlada Festival, believed to be the biggest bullrunning event in the world.

The deaths were the first for eight years at the festival, which has been running in the city of Huamantla for 72 years. Twenty-one fighting bulls were released as part of this year’s event.

🚨 DEADLY BULL RUN IN MEXICO 🇲🇽🐂

The Huamantlada festival in Tlaxcala turned deadly after a 29-year-old man was killed and at least nine others were injured as 21 bulls were released onto the streets.

And the death toll has since risen to two, after a critically injured…

Muslim Communities Vow To Defy Austria’s New Headscarf Ban

Several Muslim communities in Austria have said they intend to ignore a new ban on Islamic headscarves for girls under 14, raising fears of confrontation in schools when the new school year begins.

The ban takes effect on September 7th in Vienna, Lower Austria, and Burgenland, with the remaining federal states following a week later.

It is estimated that up to 12,000 pupils could be affected nationwide.

CHARLEBOIS: Don’t tax Canada’s ‘pink gold’ potash

Potash is Canada’s “pink gold” — one of the country’s most valuable natural resources and a cornerstone of global food production.

With tensions escalating between Canada and the United States, some Canadians want Ottawa to impose a surtax on potash exports to the American market. The proposal appears compelling. The United States depends heavily on Canadian potash, an essential fertilizer used to produce corn, wheat, soybeans and many other crops. If Washington targets Canadian industries, why shouldn’t Canada retaliate with a resource American farmers cannot easily do without?

Mark Carney is digging in for the trade war

It’s rare to hear so many figures in the U.S. administration talking about Canada.

On Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump posted a threat to impose 50-per-cent tariff on all Canadian cars and Vice-President JD Vance was at a rally in Maine smiling at his own smarmy joke about Canada being a state. The day before, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was predicting a weak Canada would rush negotiators back to the table to avoid the devastating impact of U.S. tariffs.

Prime Minister Mark Carney blew up the trade discussion based on his demand that: Canada should be allowed to make any deal they want with China; that Chinese component parts be allowed in Canadian assembled Semi Trucks; that streaming services install a French language search… pic.twitter.com/Nqt9LFYT8p

China is the biggest buyer of Iran’s oil. Could US sanctions threaten those ties?

The US has unveiled an expansion of sanctions that it says will cut off Iran’s economic lifeline but stopped short of the most punishing measures, instead putting the world on notice to cease doing business with the Islamic republic.

Treasury secretary Scott Bessent ⁠warned other countries would need to sever ⁠business ties with Iran or risk being forced out of the dollar-based financial system. He previously urged cooperation from China – the biggest buyer of Iranian oil for several years – although the US blockade of Iran’s ports, renewed in mid-July, has already cut much of the Iranian oil flows to China.

Tasha Kheiriddin: The end of free trade is here

Welcome to Trade Wars, the reality show that pits the mighty United States of America against the mouse that roared, aka Canada. How’s everyone feeling today? “Kiss my ass!” yells Ontario Premier Doug Ford. “Flunky! I will rename Lake Ontario Lake America,” claps back U.S. President Donald Trump. Insert laugh track, cut to a commercial for a Ford F-150 pickup, and check out the ratings — 76 per cent of Canadians agree with Prime Minister Mark Carney’s decision to quit the talks. Everyone’s watching — what a hit.

The BCTF says I’m now equipped to spot racism

PENTICTON — I finally completed Module 1 of the BC Teachers’ Federation anti-racism training program.

“You have been introduced to many concepts in this learning module,” the text says.

I certainly have. From Skywoman falling onto a turtle’s back, to Omari and Willis debating whether a cartoon Italian eating pizza qualifies as white, it has been a magical journey.

The illusion of leverage in Canada-US trade negotiations

The latest failure in the trade talks between Canada and the United States has revealed a basic mismatch between political rhetoric and economic reality. Although Canadian officials, such as Prime Minister Mark Carney and the country’s trade negotiators, are still expressing confidence and maintaining that Canada has real leverage in arriving at a future agreement, the basic economic situation paints a completely different picture—one which Canadian businesses understand far better than the political leadership responsible for representing them.

Log Cabin Republicans Drop the “T” From LGBT

For some time now, the media have been reporting that support for what they call “LGBTQ+ issues” is on the decline. In the latest issue of Newsweek, Mandy Taheri observes that this has been happening even as the number of Americans “who identify as LGBTQ+” has boomed, with California, for example, boasting more than 3.1 million “LGBTQ+” people.

OTTAWA — On July 23, someone reached into the controls of the drinking-water plant in Saint-Noël, a village of fewer than four hundred people in Quebec’s Bas-Saint-Laurent, and began raising the chlorine. The alarms that should have sounded had been switched off. The plant went into a protective shutdown on its own, and the water stayed clean.

Lindsay Clancy and the Perennial Innocence of Killer-Mothers

The headlines are standard: “Women in pink rally in support of Lindsay Clancy who is on trial for killing 3 children,’” “America’s saddest murder trial: mental health in focus in Lindsay Clancy case,” “Lindsay Clancy’s trial shows how badly the system fails mothers,” and “Everyone Failed Lindsay Clancy.”

The headlines look away from the actual victims in the case: the three helpless children who were strangled to death in early 2023. All the sympathetic emphasis is on their mother, portrayed as a tragic figure allegedly “failed” by others and not morally responsible for her horrific act.

Will the ‘refugees welcome’ crowd finally learn their lesson?

The British state’s decision to disperse asylum seekers to the poorest parts of the country has long been causing serious problems. Mainly accommodated in so-called migrant hotels and increasingly houses in multiple occupation (HMOs), asylum seekers’ presence has been the source of many issues, from rises in anti-social behaviour to pressure on already stretched public services. It has also fuelled higher rents as landlords remove family homes from the market to create bedsits.
