U.S. interest in Alberta separatism raises red flags over what might come next

Communications between the Trump administration and Alberta’s separatist movement raised alarm at the highest levels in Canada last week. It also raised questions about Washington’s possible intentions.

Some even see dangerous parallels between American efforts to inflame Alberta separatism and the Russian campaign to gin up a separatist movement in eastern Ukraine a decade ago.

Last week, an Alberta separatist group revealed that it was hosted at three meetings by the U.S. State Department.


Honestly as the true nature of the Carney ChiCom alliance is revealed annexation looks better and better.

John Ivison: Carney’s diversification plan will turn to disaster if China attacks Taiwan

In his speech at his party’s convention in Calgary on Friday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre expressed his wariness about the “strategic partnership” the Carney government has struck with China.

Cognizant that many western Conservatives welcomed Beijing’s tariff relief on canola provided by an agreement to allow 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into Canada, he did not expand on his misgivings.

The deal is deliberately limited in scope and certainly does not justify the wilder ramblings of some MAGA types like President Donald Trump’s former adviser, Steve Bannon, who mused about Canada and China conducting joint military exercises in the Arctic.

Carney doesn’t care about no Taiwan.

China’s Year of the Horse is Already Coming Up Lame

The Chinese New Year celebration observed later this month is the “Year of the Horse,” but you probably will not want to put any money down on either win, place or show.

Perhaps not since Soviet dictator Josef Stalin had at least eight of his top generals tortured and executed on the eve of World War II have we seen another nation dismantle their top military brass in the manner just pursued by Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Risks of working with China outweigh the benefits, Michael Kovrig warns

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trade deal with China has ruffled feathers, especially in Washington, and left many wondering whether the risk of exploitation and retaliation is worth the reward of increased trade.

National Post decided it would be a good time to share insights from China expert Michael Kovrig, a former Canadian diplomat who was wrongfully detained for nearly three years in China in retaliation for the arrest of Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver. Kovrig has long stressed that China uses economic and political coercion in its dealings with partners.

As Military Powers Jostle for the Arctic, How Far Behind Is Canada?

The Arctic’s growing importance has reached the point that acquiring Greenland has become a key demand for the second Trump administration amid concerns about Russian and Chinese ambitions in the region, drawing protestations from other allies who urge continued Danish sovereignty over the autonomous territory.

When it comes to Canada’s defence of the Arctic, its capabilities for the roughly 4-million-square-kilometre expanse of Arctic territory falls far short when compared to both adversarial countries and its ally the United States. However, some analysts warn that Canada may be falling behind even middle-power Arctic nations, if the sheer size of its Arctic territory is taken into account.

Chinese Canadian Group Petitions for Support of Carney’s China Policy While Pushing National Nanjing Memorial Day

OTTAWA — A petition supporting Prime Minister Mark Carney’s re-engagement with China is circulating in Canada’s Chinese diaspora, launched by an organization that has already submitted a policy proposal to the Prime Minister’s Office on establishing a national Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day.

The Chinese Canadian Proposals Committee, registered in Canada on August 31, 2025—several months after Carney’s spring election—proposed in October 2025 that Parliament establish a Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day “as part of a discussion on public history education,” according to a report posted on Weixin, a Chinese social media platform.

Was Mark Carney’s Davos speech a mistake if it upset Trump?

In an interview with an American television network this week, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent volunteered some advice to Mark Carney.

“I would just encourage Prime Minister Carney to do what he thinks is best for the Canadian people, not his own virtue-signalling, because we do have a USMCA negotiation coming up,” Bessent said, using the American name for the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement.

“He rose to power on an anti-American, anti-Trump message, and that’s not a great place to be when you’re negotiating with an economy that is multiples larger than you are and your biggest trading partner.”


I think Carney is priming the LPC for a snap election.

Pissing off Trump is just free campaign advertising for his gullible base.

It’s entirely possible he prefers China as a personally profitable alternative to the US.

Xi’s corruption purge to make army ready to invade Taiwan

At the press of a button, the lids of the missile silos in western China should open to launch nuclear weapons capable of reaching the United States.

But according to US intelligence released in 2024, the materials used to construct them were too heavy. Not only that, some of the missiles were filled with water rather than fuel.

The scandal – or some form of it – appears to have driven Xi Jinping, China’s president, to remove the entire leadership of Rocket Forces, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) division responsible for Beijing’s nuclear deterrent, in the months before the leak was published.

Canadians now prioritize trade with China over human rights concerns

A growing majority of Canadians now view economic engagement with China as more important than focusing on the country’s human rights record, a new Angus Reid Institute poll shows.

Three-in-five respondents (59%) said trade and investment opportunities should be Canada’s main priority, marking a sharp shift from recent years when human rights concerns dominated public opinion.

How Chinese EVs Have Impacted Global Markets—and What It Means for Canada as It Opens Its Market

Canada is set to open its automotive market to Chinese electric vehicles, as researchers and policymakers warn that a flood of Chinese products in markets such as Europe has come at the expense of domestic producers.

Earlier this month, Prime Minister Mark Carney struck a deal with China to allow 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles into Canada annually at a 6.1 percent tariff, replacing the 100 percent tariff imposed in 2024 amid concerns over Beijing’s non-market practices.

Trump says ‘very dangerous’ for UK, Canada to do business with China as Starmer lands in Shanghai

Donald Trump said it was “very dangerous” for the UK to do business with China, as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer arrived in Shanghai on the third day of his visit to the country.

…Beyond his brief comments, Trump did not say anything further about the UK’s engagement with China, pivoting instead to Canada and delivering a similar warning.

He said it was “even more dangerous, I think, for Canada”.

“Canada is not doing well. They’re doing very poorly, and you can’t look at China as the answer,” he added.

Message to Mark Carney: Europe without America doesn’t work

Mark Carney, the former Governor of the Bank of England and now Canadian prime minister, was the toast of Davos last week for a speech that seemed to perfectly capture the moment with its talk of a “permanent rupture” and its supposed master plan for responding to the “Trumpquake” in global affairs.

But how realistic was his vision of a coalition of “middle powers” – by which he seemed to mean mainly Canada, Europe, the UK and Japan – to keep the torch of the old liberal order burning bright?
