Adam Zivo: Carney put Liberals first, even though Trump tariff threat was predictable

U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to impose crippling tariffs should Ottawa and Beijing sign a trade deal is unacceptably coercive and mimics China’s behaviour. Yet, at the same time, Prime Minister Mark Carney could be navigating this situation better, and seems to be prioritizing political theatre over Canada’s interests.

Throughout his second presidency, Trump’s approach to foreign policy has been erratic and disruptive. While his interventions in Venezuela and the Middle East have been commendable, their benefits have been outweighed by his bullying of traditional American allies, as well as his threats to punish western economies should they fail to obsequiously follow his agenda.

I honestly believe Carney’s theatrics are a deliberate ploy designed to ensure a deal with China and the personal enrichment of he and pals.

Woman given MAiD ‘against her will’ because her husband had ‘caregiver burnout’

CALGARY — A woman in her 80s was euthanized through Canada’s medical assistance in dying program (MAiD) with the help of her elderly husband who was “experiencing caregiver burnout,” and experts question whether it was coerced.

According to a report released by the Ontario MAiD Death Review Committee, a woman referred to as Mrs. B experienced complications after a coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Violent Stabbings Shock Germany

Bloodstains and stab wounds: Germany has been shaken by a series of serious stabbings. Incidents in Berlin, Lüneburg, Friedrichshafen, and Duisburg have raised concerns about escalating knife violence involving both adults and minors, prompting ongoing police investigations.

In Berlin’s Treptow-Köpenick district on the evening of Friday, January 25th, a 19-year-old man was seriously wounded in a knife attack at a bus stop when two unknown assailants reportedly attempted to rob him. He suffered stab wounds to his chest and abdomen and was taken to hospital for surgery, while the perpetrators fled and police launched an investigation.

The Reality Behind a “U.S. Invasion” War-Planning Story That Landed Amid Heated Arctic Defence Negotiations as Carney Went to Davos

OTTAWA — Recent headlines have sensationalised reports that the Canadian Armed Forces modelled hypothetical U.S. invasion scenarios, framing them as evidence of deteriorating alliances or impending conflict. This narrative not only fuels unnecessary alarm, but misrepresents how serious militaries operate.

Having worked on modelling and contingency planning for highly improbable scenarios in both government and the private sector, I believe it is important for readers to understand the broader context behind scenarios that appeared on the front page of Canada’s “newspaper of record,” The Globe and Mail, on January 20.

Boycott the Super Bowl – The NFL hates you.

Last year President Trump became the first sitting president to attend the Super Bowl. This year he is skipping the game. You should too.

Trump told the New York Post in a January 23 interview that the blockbuster event, set for February 8 in California, is “just too far away.” Proximity isn’t an issue for the many millions who will be tuning in on TV and streaming (the global total is around 180–190 million; last year’s game boasted a record American audience of 127.7 million viewers), but they should boycott it altogether because the National Football League leadership is openly dismissive of the interests and desires of American football fans.

Trump’s Canada tariff threats will hasten the Chinese Century

Donald Trump’s latest broadside at Canada was theatrical and absurd even by his own standards. In a Truth Social post this weekend, the US President threatened to slap “a 100 % tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A.” if Ottawa “makes a deal with China”. He warned that “China will eat Canada alive, completely devour it, including the destruction of their businesses, social fabric, and general way of life”. He even called Prime Minister Mark Carney “Governor Carney”, deploying a jab he previously reserved for Justin Trudeau and alluding to his unfulfilled fantasy of Canada becoming America’s 51st state.

TDS ahead.

Trump’s apology is welcome, but he has good reason to be fed up with ‘Europeans’

OUTRAGED cries and calls for US President Donald Trump to apologise for saying that ‘Europeans . . . stayed . . . a little off the front lines’ during the war in Afghanistan are still rebounding off the walls of Westminster days later. His statement was undoubtedly wrong and appeared to be crassly ill-informed. By late yesterday afternoon he had backtracked.

Trump’s generalisation was difficult to parse and therefore easy to condemn, so the truths in what he may have been thinking and what prompted his ire went unreported. Not least his patent disgust with ‘Europe’ for thwarting his peace-keeping efforts in Ukraine and Gaza.

BARBER: Mark Carney’s agendas and deception

From EV mandates to “new world order” rhetoric, the Prime Minister’s trade strategy risks Canadian jobs, energy sovereignty, and Alberta’s future.

Multiple mainstream media (MSM) news sources in Canada and the United States (US) have recently reported that Mark Carney struck a trade deal with China in response to Trump’s tariffs. This short statement says more than meets the eye.

The CUSMA (aka USMCA), which largely eliminates tariffs, became effective in 2020. This agreement removes tariffs from most agricultural goods, energy, and many industrial goods. A few items, such as steel, aluminium, and softwood lumber, are exceptions. This means that the recent US tariffs imposed by President Trump do not apply to Canadian goods qualified under CUSMA. Therefore, these new tariffs cannot be the primary motivating factor for Prime Minister Carney’s deal with China.

Jamie Sarkonak: Toddler’s bathtub drowning partly the fault of racism, says Ontario judge

When a Jamaican-Canadian woman was tried for manslaughter — specifically, for leaving her 15-month-old son alone in a full bathtub for 10 minutes, causing him to drown — her judge had to ponder a question now standard in our country’s courtrooms: did systemic racism play a role in the crime?

Justice Jane Kelly of Ontario’s superior court answered “yes.” In her Jan. 8 decision, she included that as a mitigating factor that lightened, to some extent, mother Tajah Henry’s prison sentence of three years.

There is no bottom to anti-White hatred in Canada.

The Anti-ICE Signal Chat in Minneapolis Has Reportedly Been Infiltrated…and *That* Name Looks Familiar

Joe wrote about the shooting of Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis. It was another incident where Democrats screamed bloody murder, the liberal media repeated the same line, and social media was aflame. We don’t know if this was murder or not. We need an investigation, and the state of Minnesota must start cooperating with federal immigration authorities unless they want to create more situations where people get killed. Pretti was armed with a handgun during the kerfuffle that led to him being shot.

Pierre Poilievre is believed to have most Conservatives’ support. Holding his party together could be another matter

OTTAWA — You don’t need to look much further than Pierre Poilievre’s social media to see the sort of dilemma the Conservative leader is facing.

Earlier this month, he praised U.S. President Donald Trump for his extraordinary capture of Venezuela’s authoritarian leader, Nicolás Maduro. Two weeks later, he condemned the same president’s threats to acquire sovereign Greenland and backed Canada’s obligations as a member of the NATO alliance.

It’s not that it’s out of bounds for a political leader to see value in one move and denounce another. It’s that each response rankled different factions within the Conservative tent.

Has Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Made the Dissolution of Canada a Done Deal?

At the annual shindig in Davos, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney made himself the folk hero of the anti-Trump crowd (that would be basically everyone). In remarks billed as receiving a “standing ovation” but which look pretty tepid on video, Carney proclaimed that Canada was going its own way because the “American hegemon” could no longer be trusted.

Arctic security expert says the world needs to look at Greenland from America’s point of view

Donald Trump says he has a deal in the works for Greenland. And with that revelation, the U.S. president backed off on a threat to hike tariffs on European countries standing in his way.

Proclaiming America’s post-1945 grand bargain is over, Trump insists there’s a price for safety and security in the world — stay tuned.
