In the end, Canada and the United States didn’t get a trade deal. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter.
Yes, a deal would have prevented further economic woes imposed on Canada in the short run. But what matters is that the Carney government didn’t give in to the Trump administration’s economic coercion.
Our right to suffer the Laurentian Elite’s economic coercion has been preserved!
The main focus in confronting Iran’s regime and its sponsorship of terrorism has shifted toward economic sanctions and a naval blockade of Iranian ports. This pressure, driving oil exports to multi-year lows and squeezing the regime’s primary source of hard currency, constrains the resources available for ballistic missiles, proxies, and internal repression. Yet it is a dangerous delusion to believe that sanctions and blockade by themselves will change the regime’s fundamentalist and Islamist ideology or force a fundamental shift in its behavior.
The Iranian regime’s only objective is to stay in power beyond the Trump Administration.
A 22-year-old man is facing charges in connection with a string of sexual assaults that happened in Markham within a week.
York Regional Police said all four incidents involved the same suspect, who was riding a bicycle in the area of Edward Jeffreys Avenue, between Markham Road and Roy Rainey Avenue. Each incident occurred in the evenings.
Here’s some revolting ‘sole’ food.
A Dunkin’ employee was filmed washing his feet at a kitchen sink at the chain’s location aboard a Staten Island Ferry — prompting a city Health Department investigation, The Post has learned.
An eyewitness spotted the employee lifting his tootsies and using sink water to wash his feet behind the counter and immediately began filming the stomach-churning scene, calling it “disgusting.”
Your daily reminder of why Islam is incompatible with the West and why Muslims are an invasive species in America.

OTTAWA – The United States is imposing a 50 per cent tariff on a range of Canadian exports starting Saturday, after the two countries could not reach a new deal before a deadline imposed by President Donald Trump.
Trump threatened the new tariffs in July to pressure Canada to move on a number of issues that were flagged as irritants to the U.S., including provincial bans on alcohol imports, tariffs on some American made auto exports and quotas on tariff-free U.S. dairy exports.
Crisis Carney’s big moment: selling “no deal is better than a bad deal” after Canada really, really wanted a deal

It was only a few years ago when the climate change alarms and green energy fad were all the rage at the White House and corporate board rooms. Former President Joe Biden’s policies were all tilted to ending fossil fuels, and many of America’s biggest corporations embraced the concept of net-zero fossil fuels. This was the movement during the Biden years to eliminate virtually ALL oil, natural gas and coal production, and replace these energy sources with windmills, solar panels and electric vehicles.
It’s hard not to imagine any one of us being enraged dad Jason Munroe.
Fortunately, the Whitby father of three will not be going to jail for firing at the home invaders who shot his adult son – the Crown has lost its bid to overturn Munroe’s conditional sentence of two years of house arrest.
“Given the exceptional circumstances of the offence and the significant mitigating factors, we see no error in principle in this case,” wrote Court of Appeal Justice Steve Coroza on behalf of the three-judge panel. “Nor do we find that the sentence was manifestly unfit.”
Short answer: Nobody.
Long answer: Not only does nobody need it, but the world would be better without it. Nowhere does Islam touch that doesn’t get worse. Nowhere does Islam conquer that doesn’t leave its inhabitants more oppressed. Nowhere does Islam “flourish” that doesn’t witness a new dark age in terms of freedom, education, and human progress. And nowhere does Islam reign that doesn’t unleash the darkest impulses of man’s insatiable desire for power.
Canada’s top Mountie has told First Nations leaders in Alberta the RCMP will review the chiefs’ call for a criminal treason investigation into the province’s premier and governing party, a response that has some chiefs optimistic.
“It’s one step closer in regards to what we want to achieve in bringing this forward,” said Chief Desmond Bull of the Louis Bull Tribe in Maskwacis, who researched and formulated the case for the allegation.
Stop humouring these malcontents.
The White House is responding to the “nasty” week-long attack on the president by former ABC The View host Rosie O’Donnell, who has been filling in all week on ABC for rabidly anti-Trump late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.
OTTAWA – The head of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce calls the breakdown in talks for a Canada-U.S. trade deal a “self-defeating” body blow for continental competitiveness.
Candance Laing, Canadian Chamber of Commerce president, says in a statement no deal means American costs will go up and some Canadian firms will close.
Bea Bruske, president of the Canadian Labour Congress, said on social media that walking away from a bad deal “is the right choice for Canada.”
I haven’t seen the Chamber of Commerce this upset since word of the massive abuse of the TFW program broke … Oh wait a minute they’re cheerleaders for that evil.
As well as Mass Immigration.
News about the problems aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is another tangible sign that America’s military is overstretched. Thankfully, help is on the way — if Congress will pay for it.
Forget arguing over whether the crewmembers on the Lincoln are suffering from bad food or mental health problems, as is alleged. The undeniable fact is that the ship just set a record for the length of time deployed without a port call. Spending 260 days at sea without ever getting off a ship would be taxing for anyone, much less for sailors operating in a war zone for most of that period.
A potential deal between the U.S. and Canada fell apart Friday, leaving new tariffs to take effect, a move expected to escalate tensions between the Trump administration and America’s northern neighbor.
Beer, cheese and a long list of other Canadian imports become subject to new 50 percent tariffs at midnight Saturday.
Negotiators from the two countries had worked for weeks to reach a deal to avoid the tariffs, which President Donald Trump announced last month. Trump paused the implementation of the tariffs earlier this week as talks continued. But officials said late Friday night that a deal had not been reached and tariffs would go into effect.
Carney didn’t share details of the negotiation.
As bits and bites were leaked it became apparent that it was a crappy deal for Canada with the Auto sector being slowly suffocated and the Dairy Cartel untouched.
Was the negative reaction to the leaks the real reason Carney walked away.
German intelligence believes a cache of guns found in the woods near Berlin last year was for carrying out assassinations on behalf of Russia, reports say.
Germany’s Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt said federal prosecutors were investigating a suspect in Romania over suspicions of espionage and “the preparation of a serious act of violence threatening the state”.
While refusing to confirm reports of Russian links to the cache, Dobrindt said he could not rule out “the involvement of foreign powers”.
