US and Ukraine prepare to sign minerals deal on Tuesday, sources say

NEW YORK, March 4 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration and Ukraine plan to sign the much-debated minerals deal following a disastrous Oval Office meeting Friday in which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was dismissed from the building, four people familiar with the situation said on Tuesday.

President Donald Trump has told his advisers that he wants to announce the agreement in his address to Congress Tuesday evening, three of the sources said, cautioning that the deal had yet to be signed and the situation could change.

CAF a breeding ground of white supremacy says some guy

Now showing more anti white bullshit

Canada’s military should fix white supremacy problem before it starts: analyst

An Alberta-based analyst asked by the military to study white supremacy in its ranks says if it doesn’t want the problem to take root, it should take action against a culture that gives it room to grow.

Political scientist Andy Knight says his research suggests current attitudes within the Armed Forces favour white, male and Christian cultures and put groups like women, people of colour, newcomers and the 2SLGBTQ+ community at a disadvantage.

… He said the research became all the more intriguing after it was revealed that some military members were involved in the 2022 “Freedom Convoy” protests against COVID-19 rules that shut down much of downtown Ottawa for weeks.

The horror! CAF is favouring “White” people over the government’s preferred perma-victims!

And the CAF wonders why its primary recruiting pool – white males – have given up on the armed forces as a viable career.

Donald Trump has decided it’s now Canada’s turn to get slapped around

How many countries will Donald Trump and his enablers try to put in their place in the space of a few days?

The answer seems to be: as many as they want.

Trump has finally announced that 25 per cent tariffs are coming to Canada and Mexico, to start on Tuesday. Asked whether there was anything that could be done to avoid them, the president flatly said, “No.”

Britain Can Nuke Trump To Protect Canada , Says Bonkers Chrystia Freeland

British nuclear weapons can protect Canada against Trump, says Chrystia Freeland

Canada should seek closer ties with Britain because its nuclear weapons can help protect the country against Donald Trump, a female politician running to replace Justin Trudeau has said.

Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister under Justin Trudeau, said that Mr Trump is “clearly threatening our sovereignty” with his campaign to absorb Canada as the 51st state of America.

In order to “guarantee our security”, Ms Freeland said she would build closer security partnerships with European Nato allies and “I would be sure that France and Britain were there, who possess nuclear weapons”.

Anger over Vance ‘random country’ peacekeeping remark

The US vice-president has sparked a row with comments he made about the potential involvement of international forces to police a peace deal in Ukraine.

UK opposition politicians accused JD Vance of disrespecting British forces, after he told Fox News a US stake in Ukraine’s economy was a “better security guarantee than 20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.

The UK and France have said they would be willing to put troops on the ground in Ukraine as part of a peace deal.

Tariff war? Thank the Liberals

In the fact-free world of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberals, their screw-ups are always someone else’s fault.

They have been in charge of the federal government during every single day of Donald Trump’s two terms as president, from Jan. 20, 2017, to Jan. 20, 2021, and now from Jan. 20, 2025, to the present.

That means they wear the current dismal state of Canada-U.S. relations and the start of an economically devastating tariff war with the U.S. on Tuesday.

Why has it taken so long for Canada to get high-speed rail?

High-speed rail has yet to come to Canada, despite dozens of projects being talked about for decades. One transit expert gives a simple reason why it’s taken so long for us to get up to speed with other places in the world.

“When you see projects that have been delayed, a lot of times, it’s due to lack of proper governance,” said Derrick Toigo, executive director of the City of Toronto’s transit expansion office.
