U.S. President Donald Trump spoke highly of Canada on Sunday. But when asked if he would restart trade talks with his northern neighbour, he replied with a vague, “We’ll see.”
While on his way to a gala at the Kennedy Center in Washington, Trump said he had a “very good, very productive” talk on Friday with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum at the sidelines of a World Cup draw event.
A spokesperson for Carney said those talks were “constructive.”

Shove your diversity up your ass.
A former Royal Marine has been banned from working with children after he protested against illegal migrants, The Telegraph can disclose.
Free speech campaigners said spurious safeguarding concerns were increasingly being deployed to “silence” people with “patriotic views” in a “scandalous abuse of the system”.
One campaign group has identified more than a dozen cases in which laws intended to keep children safe from harm from adults are being used to crack down on Right-wing views.
Concerns have intensified over the treatment of Jamie Michael, an Iraq war veteran, who has been barred from coaching his daughter’s football team.

A return-to-office five days a week is rumoured for the federal workforce, and details point to a much more structured approach than anything public servants have seen since before the pandemic.
An internal Treasury Board document obtained by La Presse lays out the clearest picture of how far the government may be prepared to go. The document indicates a stepped rollout to tighten attendance expectations across the core public service and introduce a more rigid schedule in federal offices.
Carney has already demonstrated that when it comes to a vote bloc as potent as the civil service he will make a “big pronouncement” then do little to nothing.
It took 13-year-old Isobel less than five minutes to outsmart Australia’s “world-leading” social media ban for children.
A notification from Snapchat, one of the ten platforms affected, had lit up her screen, warning she’d be booted off when the law kicked in this week – if she couldn’t prove she was over 16.
“I got a photo of my mum, and I stuck it in front of the camera and it just let me through. It said thanks for verifying your age,” Isobel claims. “I’ve heard someone used Beyoncé’s face,” she adds.

I still remember the good old days when the taxpayers were in charge, and all Torontonians could rely on the consistent delivery of core services.
Back then, people were confident that their local government was working for them. As Torontonians grapple with the thought of another property tax hike, they have simply lost faith in how it will benefit them.
Rowdy Chicago residents were seen throwing snowballs at federal ICE agents before the freezing streets were filled with clouds of tear gas.
The chaotic scene took place on Saturday in Elgin, Illinois, about 50 minutes outside of Chicago, as a massive crowd of anti-ICE protestors took to the streets to try and fight back against President Donald Trump’s ongoing immigration crackdown.
Federal agents descended on the Chicago area as part of Operation Midway Blitz in early September, and in recent weeks they have been focusing on the Windy City’s suburbs.
Chicago, December: Insurrectionists spent all day committing felonies on camera. ICE’s parting gift?

Saint John is launching a two-year security program to address resident and business concerns about crime and public safety.
The program — called the Community Safety and Security Team — will bring private security guards to what city staff say are the city’s most crime-affected areas like the uptown core, Waterloo village and around local shelters.
“This is really about deterrence and a presence in those key service areas,” said Amy Poffenroth, the city’s commissioner of Growth and Community Services, at a Tuesday morning announcement.
As I recall this has been done on a neighborhood scale in Toronto, albeit a wealthy neighborhood.
Not sure if any stats exist showing value for money.
Relations between the United States and the European Union appear somewhat fraught after two Friday announcements triggered outrage on both sides of the Atlantic.
First, Brussels imposed a €120 million fine on the social-media platform X—and its owner Elon Musk personally—for breaching transparency rules of the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA). Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, called the fine “an attack on all American tech platforms and the American people by foreign governments.”
A slim majority of Canadians and British Columbians would support building a new oil pipeline from Alberta to the West Coast, even if the B.C. government opposes it, according to a new poll.
The Nanos Research poll, which was commissioned by The Globe and Mail, shows 56 per cent of Canadians support or somewhat support building a new oil pipeline and 55 per cent are in favour of lifting the ban on tanker traffic to make it happen. Roughly 37 per cent oppose or somewhat oppose each.
