China to implement a temporary export ban on helium, effective immediately.

According to the relevant provisions of the Foreign Trade Law of the People's Republic of China, the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs decided to implement a temporary export ban on helium (customs commodity number: 2804290010).

This announcement will be implemented from the date of publication, and subsequent relevant adjustments will be announced separately.

My latest for @TheHubCanada on the announcementpalooza of the past two months. In addition to pipelines, we also got strategies for electricity, AI and nuclear energy.
These announcements represent a sea change in Canadian politics. For years, our energy policy was simply a subset of our climate policy, and the energy sector a beast to be tamed in service of the Paris Agreement. Energy policy in Canada is now about economic development, international affairs and national security.

This is true, and it sums up my criticism of decades of Canadian foreign policy:

“Lecturing countries from afar is an ineffective strategy. It’s satisfying, but it’s ineffective.”

Ambassador of Japan: “To be very frank with you, before these pipelines there was not so much… possibility that Japan imports Canadian crude oil because of lack of infrastructure to all the oil existing in Alberta. But once you have the pipelines, you have the facility to export your oil to Asia, then that’s a totally different story,"

The irony of Western and Quebec separatism is that energy and focus are wasted on separatism, which is neither practical nor popular, rather than on constitutional reform, which is difficult but far more feasible.

@Zhongshan1866 The Canada of 1945-1967 was akin to modern day Israel in terms of state capacity and development of novel defence technology.

Crazy how that culture just disappeared.

@surim0n @buildfutureto @TOtechweek @Toronto “Doing it anyway” is the attitude more Canadian founders need. You do not win by asking permission in a system that is risk averse.

@JonFraserTF Network effects of connecting Canada’s two largest agglomerations is a net positive for the country writ large. Don’t know why that’s so hard for you to understand.

Think I’m full of it vis a vis the essential nature of French Canada in preserving Canadian distinctness from the United States?
