@watson_jam2 @EvanFeigenbaum @ConradMBlack If the much cheaper price is the $30 to $50 at the minesite due to Euro sanctions, that will disappear quickly when it transloads about 5 times before arriving.
Quality declines with every handling.
Dealers are going to bet their business on that?
Do they order from DJT?

Maybe it was a mistake for you to hop on
"Team Mark Carney"?

@Halnorempedna When Rio Tinto's $15B new Jansen mine hits full production, SK will have about 30% more product to sell.
First stage will be producing mid 2027.
They might be buying market share?

[Rex Rempel @Scruffyboy54]

@lonquest @rshereme Belarus ships something like 80% to nearby China.
We they give DJT some kind of special deal?

[Rex Rempel @Scruffyboy54]

RT @pcrowe: Carney: We’re going to diversify our trade more by becoming better friends with our current t friends.

Trump: Oh yeah, we can…

[Rex Rempel @Scruffyboy54]

@DustyRoseYYC All good till you open the slide on the car and dusty, powdered up crap comes out after being transloaded 5 times.
Delivery times of weeks compared to days?
To many if, buts, and maybe's for dealers to take seriously without significant discounts.
Do you buy direct from DJT?

[Rex Rempel @Scruffyboy54]

@ManiacMagic1 @DustyRoseYYC Got Trump in the headlines for probably most of the week.
Lazy reporting.

@ManiacMagic1 @secretsqrl123 @RapidResponse47 @POTUS Part of the retirement of the old Sea Kings.

Weird how russia's closest ally, Belarus, always has hordes of political prisoners to give up for deals ... And of course we are burning another bridge with our longest ally to get closer to a putin ally.

If libs would have predicted this during the campaign all republicans, myself included, would have been absolutely against it and called the libs crazy conspiracy theorists.

Yet here we are.

[Rex Rempel @Scruffyboy54]

@VanIsleInvestor Belarus sanctioned Potash is - $30 to $50 fob mine. EU has sanctioned ports, it has to go the long way. Russian rail → Russian ports → Atlantic ocean freight → U.S. ports → domestic U.S. rail.
$50 for all those trans loads?
It would be shit product after all that handling

[Conrad Black @ConradMBlack]

@fleetkestrel I think the opposite is true. Trump does not need Congress to set US trade policy. A hostile lame duck Trump has nothing to lose. And if he blames Carney's targeted counter-tariffs for losing some tight races, he could inflict a lot of damage.

@ConradMBlack Carney's CBAM, net zero and carbon policies are not compatible with a trade deal with the USA and Carney will not abandon any of it.

[Conrad Black @ConradMBlack]

The trade imbroglio with the United States is escalating and ramifying in ways that are potentially dangerous. The Carney government refuses to release the final offer or produce the conclusive evidence that would settle whether the prime minister was reacting to provocative American attempts to change the deal at the last minute. As long as that doubt exists, it is going to be difficult to conduct the war that Mr. Carney has instigated. Juvenile acts such as booing and shouting down the American national anthem are stirring up unprecedented hostility toward Canada in a country of 350 million people with a GDP of US$32 trillion.

There has never been one word of justification for breaking off negotiations that still offered this country unequalled access to by far the greatest and most swiftly growing market in the world. Of course we must pursue our national interest, but with this uneven correlation of forces it is poor tactics to escalate the disagreement. Mr. Carney seems to take himself for the global David firing his slingshot at the orange-tufted Goliath, overtly trying to hurt Trump in the midterm elections while bandying recondite asides about the ancient Greeks. This is not Finland resisting Russia in 1940; it is more like Romania declaring war on Germany in 1915.

Canada is completely dependent on the United States for almost 70 percent of its exports and for its military security. Leaping into the arms of the Chinese who conducted a form of genocide on the Uighurs, meddled in Canadian elections, and proudly continue the legacy of Mao Tse-tung is not an acceptable answer. Nor is continuing the helter-skelter policies that have put terrible pressure on housing costs, produced a fertility rate of 1.25, and made us the suicide capital of the world. If our cause is righteous, this could be a chance for Canada to demonstrate moral strength and a mature nationality. Self-impoverishment and primal-scream therapy will not achieve it.

@ClydeDoSomethin The CTV is doing everything they can to steal those liberal boomer viewers away from the CBC. 😂

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

Les libéraux sont déconnectés de la réalité.

Les Canadiens n'ont plus d’argent.

Cette session d'automne doit être consacrée aux résultats, pas aux discours, pour vous faire économiser de l'argent, protéger votre emploi, assurer votre sécurité, réparer l'immigration et mettre notre pays d’abord.

[LandShark @LandSharkCons]

@JeffArmstr97586 CUSMA Article 32.10. It deals specifically with negotiating a free-trade agreement (FTA) with a “non-market country.” Canada must notify the other CUSMA countries at least three months before beginning such FTA negotiations, provide information about the negotiations if requested

I wonder what Stompin' Tom would say if he walked through Brampton today, Jason.

Edmonton. NE Calgary. Abbotsford. Surrey. Oakville. Mississauga. Cambridge. Any given shopping mall. @TimHortons, @SUBWAY, took a ride on the Kitchener GO train...

He'd write songs about patriots defending their country against their own governments.

@nspector4 @GROK Try take all the spin out and explain how difficult it will be for canada to trade anything including ag commodities with all the EU specific regulatory

[Eva Chipiuk, BSc, LLB, LLM @echipiuk]

There is something deeply unhealthy happening in our public discourse.

When people question government policy, they are called extremists.

When they raise concerns about immigration or social cohesion, they are called racists.

When they question public-health decisions or speak about vaccine injuries, they are called anti-vaxxers.

When they challenge the constitutional status quo or discuss Alberta’s future, they are called traitors.

These labels are rarely intended to encourage dialogue. They are used to end it.

But questioning government is not extremism.

Challenging existing laws is not lawlessness.

Discussing constitutional change is not disloyalty.

And disagreeing with government policy does not make someone dangerous.

In a healthy democracy, citizens are free to question authority, challenge prevailing ideas and advocate for change. That is not a threat to democracy. It is democracy.

The real danger is a political culture that silences legitimate concerns, punishes disagreement, disparages citizens and treats them as enemies simply because they refuse to conform.

We will not rebuild public trust by ignoring this reality. We will rebuild public trust by listening, answering difficult questions and addressing the substance of their concerns.

Dialogue does not weaken a country. Refusing to have it does.
