"There will be no taxes on Canadian consumers, no taxes on Canadian industries," Poilievre said on Monday at a news conference in L'Orignal, Ont.
At the same time, Poilievre said "provinces will continue to have the freedom to address" industrial emissions "how they like."
It seems almost laughably easy to use this to make him look weak and spineless?
Ultimately, they're probably better off avoiding poking the bear, and simply working to freeze the US out of the international scene moving forward.
Why did it take the government so long to figure it out?
If you mean the Canadian government, it probably has to do with the multiple of false justifications that have been provided so far.
“Tariffs are now a global policy of the United States,” said David Paterson, Ontario’s representative in Washington. “And this is a historic change to global trading patterns, and [the Americans are] very aware of that.”
Paterson said the American plan is to impose tariffs by sector across countries all around the world on April 2. From there, the countries that get along with the U.S. the best will be “first in line” to adjust or mitigate the tariffs.
[Ambassador Kirsten] Hillman described the meeting as “concrete” and appreciated the conversations, but she noted that nothing changed in terms of the ongoing trade war between Canada and the U.S.
This is certainly a political trait, but perhaps more importantly, it's a human one.
Immediate gratification feels better than distant gratification. Avoiding something bad never feels as good as getting something good.
I don't know what the solution is. Education, I guess? The population at large needs to fully understand the nature of the threats, and the consequences of failure.
I think it might be asbestos-free now - they've spent the last few years gutting the place.
But yeah, I don't think I'd support tearing it down, despite the fact that the house itself supposedly isn't considered architecturally significant.
I think it might be time to move on from the property and build something new - 24 Sussex is old, decrepit, and not really suitable for the task. It's just an old house.
Preserve 24 Sussex and turn it into a museum or something, but build an official residence that actually meets modern requirements.
Rudy Ransom Did Nothing Wrong
It certainly seems to contradict the notion that VIA has no involvement - in fact, as near as I can tell, Alto is still a VIA subsidiary. But maybe that's wrong, it's a little unclear.
I don't think it necessarily invalidates the idea of it being a "fast track to privatization," or that ticket prices will be high.
The plan notably excludes involvement from VIA Rail, Canada’s only company with experience running a national daily passenger rail service.
Alto is officially known as VIA HFR – VIA TGF Inc., and their website says,
VIA Rail provides advice on the technical and operational aspects of existing passenger railway services.
I think the critical weaknesses identified in the article are astute: economically vulnerable/disadvantaged people, and disinformation, especially on social media.
Okay, I'm not buying this, because I never buy the large bundles, but this is fabulous.
Starfleet Armored Security Guard Uniform (ca. 2271)
Revamped the Original Series Constitution and Pioneer models with a higher resolution model and a new material (named Type 0a) inspired by the Enterprise's Smithsonian restoration.
Nifty!
I found this, too: CBC Music's Top 100 Canadian songs of 2024
I'm hardly an expert, but I think the Navy is in notoriously bad shape, even by Canadian national defense standards.
Ditto for the last Polaris Music Prize short list.
If you have a helpful resource, such as a compilation of Canadian artists in the past year, let me know and I can edit it into this post.
The list of 2025 Juno nominees would probably be a good (but imperfect) place to start.
