For every real position Pierre takes from here to the election like he did today on puberty blockers, he will secure 1 yes vote and lose two maybes. The math will become difficult as a consequence of courting many fringe blocs without ever building a true consensus beyond anger.

Rapidly changing conditions near Boston Bar tonight with a new fire south of town. Urge anyone who remains behind to evacuate now. Our thanks to all wildfire crews and emergency personnel tonight.

Thanks for the bday wishes, @WabKinew. At my age, there are so many birthday candles to blow out that Trump may complain about the candle smoke.

Wow.
Staff for Ontario’s emergency measures minister Jill Dunlop just audibly jumped in ON AIR and pulled her out of a CBC As It Happens interview on forest fire response.

Tough day in the taiga today. It’s hard raking up debris in bogs. Caught a fish for lunch though. Tossed a hook into a lake and got a 14 lb Arctic Char. New rake works great. On track to clear my section of the Boreal Forest by the year 3245 AD. On on

President of Emirates says the airline will refuse to take delivery of its first 10 Boeing 777X aircraft, claiming that the much-delayed jets would be better off being turned into baked bean tins.

Sir Tim Clark said the initial batch of 10 of the jets will require such a patchwork of changes to update them that they will not be fit for purpose.

"We're not taking that batch and that's it," he told media at the Farnborough International Airshow. "As far as we're concerned, what they do with them is up to them."

The Dubai airline has ordered a total of 270 new 777X planes from Boeing at $440m (£330m) apiece, with the first jet built in 2019. But repeated delays stemming from design modifications has meant Emirates is still waiting for the planes seven years later.

Kenney: "I wouldn't be surprised if Premier Ford and PM Carney have worked out an understanding, a modus vivendi, where Doug Ford plays the bad cop so Carney can play the good cop. I think it's necessary that we demonstrate to the Trump administration, we broadly as Canadians, that we're not pushovers, that there are voices for fighting back. And that gives, I think, the PM and his team more skating room to be diplomatic, to turn down the dial, to de-escalate."

This afternoon, I met with members of the Advisory Committee on Canada-U.S. Economic Relations to provide an update on the United States administration's intention to impose a new 50% tariff on a number of Canadian goods.

Canada remains ready to engage intensively with the U.S. to find solutions that benefit workers, farmers, businesses and families in both countries.

@dodo99 @gmacofglebe This is one of the the reasons folks have been pushing for a national LE database too, so bad officers can’t just switch forces.

Huge news, great roadmap

[Tim Houston @TimHoustonNS]

Good news for Nova Scotia, our local producers, and Canadian free trade. 🇨🇦

Nova Scotia has signed a new agreement with eight other provinces that will allow wineries, breweries, cideries, and distilleries to sell their products directly to consumers across participating provinces. That means our local producers can reach millions of new customers, and Nova Scotians will have more choice and easier access to Canadian-made products from across the country.

At a time when global trade is facing uncertainty, it makes more sense than ever to strengthen trade here at home. Breaking down barriers between provinces helps grow our economy, supports local businesses, and creates new opportunities for Nova Scotia producers to succeed.

There is still more work to do, but we will keep pushing to remove trade barriers, grow our economy, and make it easier for Canadians to do business with Canadians. 🇨🇦

I genuinely appreciate what Donald Trump has done in smoking out those Canadians who love Trumpism more than they like Canada or appreciate being Canadian. I won't forget.
