Just in: Moosehead Brewery in Canada is the largest brewery in the Country. Due to tariffs, they are selling their booze to the United States at a LOSS. They continue to do this because we are their largest buyer by far, and they don't want to lose the business altogether.
In two days, the total ban of Canadian Alcohol (non-alcoholic beverages are exempt) takes effect and thousands of Canadian businesses will not survive if the ban actually takes place on Tuesday.
Thanks to Mark Carney who decided it was a great idea to pick a fight and walk away from a great deal with their largest trading partner over TDS and politics.
The sad truth is that anywhere between one-third and 40% of the country will go along with whatever the Liberals do, no matter how contemptuous it is of our democracy? I struggle to think of any other western democracy that functions this way. But the band plays on...
@adamscochran Most Canadians? Are you serious? You can see the yellow right?
Also this poll is run by a wacky NDP guy. I don't trust polls from Research Co. and I don't trust anyone who thinks communism is the way forward.
HE NAILS IT. Finally some common sense!
Canada's Ian Lee (One of Canada's brightest) absolutely nails it today! Agree 100%.
Says its the privileged public sector calling for this trade war - they have nothing to lose. And its emotional.
"an awful lot of people's jobs are on the line!"
Says he doesn't even know if "sovereignty was on the table" because hes never seen the deal!
FINALLY - Common sense is starting to pierce through the emotion. This is what we need right now!
Humiliation? You've done that to yourself.
You run a nothing story to smear Poilievre when Mark Carney has more conflicts of interest than any Canadian Prime Minister in history.
I've done more research on Mark Carney's conflicts of interest than your entire organization combined and I'm not even a journalist. I'm just a guy with a moose statue and a cat next to me on my desk.
@MarcNixon24 There’s a very good reason why Liberals or the media don’t even attempt to deny David’s reporting.
Because they know you can’t argue against a guy that has all the receipts, and the last thing they want to do is call attention to David and his work.
China slaps 73.5% preliminary tariff on pea starch from Canada...
So, how's that diversifying trade portfolio thing working for ya, Mark? https://t.co/BdvZCKf17F
The UAE is building a ~1.4MM Bbl/d, 370km pipeline costing ~$4BN USD, started in 2025 and onstream in 2027. Canada aims to potentially build a 1MM Bbl/d pipeline, to cost ~$40BN, take 8+years, and is tying it to an obsolete/costly $30BN Pathways project. See the difference???
The Grand Ransom™️has now been signed: a reduced & deferred carbon tax to $140/t by 2040, and the promise of a new pipeline that "is tied to Pathways", a $30BN project that is irrelevant and enormously expensive. No other country in the world is doing this to themselves, just 🇨🇦.
Not a single purchaser of crude oil in the world asks nor cares about the carbon footprint of the barrel, instead is 100% focused on accessibility, affordability, and reliability. I do not see how we overcome this massive misunderstanding which underpins all ongoing negotiations.
This is what Canadians have been subjected to by our media in just last several weeks.
We have a record deficit, record food insecurity, record homelessness, record crime, record food inflation, record household debt, record youth unemployment and the media is putting all focus on a person and party who has never held power in Canada for 11 years?
This is a problem. How will anything ever improve if the very Government who is managing our Country is never scrutinized or held accountable? Guess what it’s not going to. This is what a protection racket looks like.
🚨 CANADA'S BIGGEST BANK just got put on recession watch.
Royal Bank of Canada is being watched closely for one number next earnings season: loan loss provisions.
That’s money banks set aside when they believe borrowers may soon struggle to pay mortgages, credit cards, or loans.
Why it matters now:
🔹 Mortgage renewals are hitting at much higher rates than 2021
🔹 Household debt remains heavy
🔹 Unemployment is rising
🔹 Consumers are already squeezed by groceries and bills
If provisions stay elevated or climb again, it could be another warning sign that Canada’s slowdown is getting real. The stress often shows up in bank earnings before it shows up everywhere else.
A very powerful & passionate speech by MP John Brassard who is the chair of the ethics committee.
There is a real problem when “The opposition party (in Canada) is held to greater account than the Government”
@MarkJCarney You go first. Pull your daughter out of Harvard, sell your house in the USA, sell your stocks in American Companies, and get Brookfield to HQ in Canada again. I’ll take it seriously when you do!
We are learning that the Liberal government, now holding the slimmest of majorities in the House of Commons, intends to assert control over all parliamentary committees—over votes, witness selection, points of order, agendas, and more.
Committee work is among the most important responsibilities of Parliamentarians, full stop. It is where legislation is thoroughly examined to ensure that decisions made by government serve the best interests of all Canadians.
While the Liberals are entitled to seek greater control, what I witnessed firsthand in Ottawa last week was troubling: a tone of arrogance, along with the mistreatment of some witnesses who expressed views not aligned with the party in power.
This is what is unfolding, and Canadians should be aware. Parliament will look very different over the next three years—even with only a razor-thin majority.
This is Canada's rocket launch facility in NS.
The article says:
"Little more than a concrete shed pad at the end of a gravel road with two sea cans, Maritime Launch’s “Spaceport Nova Scotia” was recently lavished $20 million a year for 10 years by our federal government to further develop its facility...
They're boasting to investors that they can send rockets into space on “150+” launch days a year."
It's nothing more than a $200 million money laundering scam. Read the article to find out all the connections to Ukraine.
Our governments are so rupteur, and the citizens just allow it to happen.

BREAKING: Brookfield is again pushing to ship Canadian hydroelectricity from Powell River straight to the United States - with zero benefits for the community, B.C., or Canada.
That's why I've formally written to the Canada Energy Regulator demanding public hearings be held in Powell River at the earliest possible opportunity.
These dams were built 100+ years ago to power 2,000 local pulp mill jobs.
Now they support about six.
Canada's natural resources belong to Canadians - not well-connected, foreign corporations.
