A new U.S. government plan that would offer tax credits for electric vehicles and batteries made by unionized labour in the United States puts Canada in a difficult position, according to both Canadian environmentalists and trade experts.

Offering an effective $12,500 US subsidy if American residents buy an electric vehicle rather than one with a traditional engine, the move is considered a positive step toward coaxing gas-powered vehicles — and their emissions — out of the market.

Anti-vaxxers in child immunization disputes with co-parents likely to lose in court: B.C. lawyer
VANCOUVER – With children as young as five now eligible for vaccination against COVID-19, there are likely heated disputes brewing between parents with differing views – and some may eventually end up in a courtroom.
But dragging a fight over childhood immunization before a judge is unlikely to end well for anti-vaccine parents, according to B.C. lawyer Martina Milau, who dealt with a number of similar vaccine battles prior to the pandemic.
Women have been banned from appearing in television dramas in Afghanistan under new rules imposed by the Taliban government.
Female journalists and presenters have also been ordered to wear headscarves on screen, although the guidelines do not say which type of covering to use.
Reporters say some of the rules are vague and subject to interpretation.
The Taliban seized power in Afghanistan in mid-August and many fear they are gradually imposing harsh restrictions.

When it comes to the liberal media, there seems to be an unspoken rule to never abandon the narrative, even when it’s been proven false.

During one recent night, four young Muslim migrants from Morocco appeared out of the darkness and surrounded a 30-year-old woman in northern Spain. “Let’s see how we destroy that beautiful face,” they cried, before punching her several times in the face, wounding and ultimately hospitalizing her.
According to the report, the young woman was returning home alone and observed that she was being followed by several young people from whom she tried to distance herself to get to her home. After blocking her way and beating her, the four assailants fled without stealing any of the personal belongings that she carried from her.
It looks much the way it does in Africa with Chinese companies striking deals and then importing their own factories and a foreign slave labor force to do the actual work. The only difference is that people are shocked when the same thing happens in Europe. For now.
The violent Covid riots were about more than hooliganism
When hundreds of rioters piled into Rotterdam centre on Friday night, attacking police, throwing bricks, setting off fireworks and rampaging through the streets, it was no small irony that they left a police car burning outside the Erasmushuis.

So now he and his inner sanctum have let it be known he plans to run again in 2024, when he would be 82.
No one really believes any of it.
For one thing, where is his cognitive test? That’s the question increasingly on American minds.
