Alberta Premier Danielle Smith called energy “the leverage point for us to get to zero tariffs on all Canadian goods.”
When Canadian governments talk to the American government, Smith said they have to talk about their mutual interests.
I trust her more than Trudeau.
Electric-vehicle startups were struggling before the election. Donald Trump’s victory could send them into a tailspin.
Several high-profile companies, including electric SUV maker Fisker and bus manufacturer Arrival, filed for bankruptcy earlier this year. Swedish-based battery maker Northvolt became the latest casualty last week, filing for Chapter 11 after BMW canceled a key order.
At least a dozen other startups, specializing in electric vehicles or batteries, are at risk of running out of cash by next summer, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of their most recent filings.
Musk is there as a counter.
Hunter Biden’s legal team is launching an assertive public defense of the president’s son just weeks before federal judges in Delaware and California prepare to sentence him this month, and as his father faces a diminishing window to pardon him if he chooses to do so despite previously ruling it out.
In a 52-page paper titled “The political prosecutions of Hunter Biden” released Saturday, Hunter Biden’s lawyers criticize the foundation of the investigations into their client, arguing that he was prosecuted for crimes that an ordinary citizen would not have been. Hunter Biden is likely to face further unfair threats when President-elect Donald Trump takes office, the lawyers contend.
Captured Hezbollah fighters testify that the terrorist group paid money to the peacekeepers to use their bases to conduct their operations.
For decades, United Nations peacekeepers have been promoted as critical civilian lifelines amid some of the world’s most harrowing conditions. Yet those who have already endured violence, displacement and poverty still fear that those deployed to protect them may only amplify their suffering.
Last month, Israel ignited international condemnation for firing on numerous bases belonging to the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, the peacekeeping mission founded in 1978 under a Security Council resolution. While its target is Hezbollah, the Israel Defense Forces contend that the UN peacekeeping mission, largely funded by America, functioned in the pocket of the designated terrorist group.
Congressman Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) accused Republicans of sending threatening phone calls and “swatting” Democrats. He laughably tried to take the high road saying that “House Democrats will not be deterred or intimidated from serving the people by violent threats.”
A Texas Democrat faked racist comments to himself, and he’s facing charges. A Democrat-supporting media has put up a fake Pro-Trump website, evidently being part of a plan to get Progressives elected by using a “unique, innovative digital strategy.”
These ridiculous hate hoaxes are nothing new for the Left.
Yet again, the British state is failing to keep its citizens safe. This week, convicted terrorist Abdalraouf Abdallah – who was close friends with the Manchester Arena bomber – was freed from prison. This is despite the fact that, just a few months ago, he was deemed too dangerous for release.
A fashion designer claims Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs dangled her over a 17th floor balcony and she was only saved when Cassie Ventura intervened.
Bryana ‘Bana’ Bongolan sued the disgraced music mogul for $10 million, claiming her also molested her and detailed his frequent alleged abuse of his then-girlfriend Ventura.
The artist’s lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, claimed the near-death experience was on September 26, 2016, after one of Diddy’s notorious ‘freak offs’.
Is this scandal the real reason the Democrats lost?
The British state is happy to kill you
In my late twenties, I became clinically depressed and prone to bouts of suicidal ideation — “suicidal”, in un-medical English. From 1993 to 1998 I lived in northern Italy; paradise, apparently, but to me it felt more like a J.G. Ballard novel.
Everyone was partnered, successful and “shiny”. I — an Iris Murdoch-obsessed homosexual statistician — lay on the lakeside beach, dully hungry from the latest pointless attempt to lose weight, surrounded by the mountains about whose majesty everyone insisted. I saw nothing but rocks. No bildungsroman lurked, waiting to be written: just pointlessness mixed with failure.
Another Canadian progressive politician is in celebration mode as Canada collapses in a cloud of economic hardship and social degeneracy.
Video has surfaced of Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, 67, allegedly taking a shot of alcohol while on stage at a recent public event.
People are leaving Toronto by the tens of thousands. Crime has skyrocketed, partly due to thousands of poorly-vetted asylum seekers flooding the city. Prices for food and rent are persistently high. Average homes are well over $1 million.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau travelled to Palm Beach, Fla., to attend a dinner Friday night with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump. The visit comes amid Trump’s threats to impose steep tariffs on Canadian products entering the United States.
Trudeau’s plane landed earlier in the evening at Palm Beach International Airport, which is used by Trump when he travels to his Mar-a-Lago estate. Trump has been meeting with his transition team there in recent weeks.
Pro-immigration Democrats are finally waking up to realize their anti-border security policies cost them the election after a report found that President-elect Donald Trump’s tough-on-immigration campaign drove swing voters to cast their ballot for him.
The Biden administration’s utter sabotage of our country’s immigration policies, played a much larger role in the GOP’s epic win this election cycle. Yet marxist dems are still in denial.

A Winnipeg shelter says it’s seeing a rising number of seniors accessing its services, with some experiencing homelessness for the first time.
“A lot of them are simply being priced out of life, for a lack of a better term,” said Darren Nodrick, the director of development at Siloam Mission in Winnipeg. “Increased cost in rent as well as food is just too much.
“Some folks that are accessing our drop-in are coming for meals because they’re having to choose between rent and/or food.”
Trudeau and all his LPC members are heartless lying scumbags.
Downtown Kitchener Ontario. Anyone remember growing up in Canada and seeing anything like this? How about prior to 2015? Trudeau has failed Canadians & Canada in immeasurable ways. pic.twitter.com/txlwhLCWqY

In 2020, Borderland Pride asked the township of Emo, Ont. (pop. 1,300) to proclaim Pride Month and fly the Pride flag. In a 3-2 vote, the council declined. It was a petty decision; Pride proclamations are generally considered pro forma, and Emo’s refusal was a bad look for a township seeking to attract business and newcomers.
In fairness, Emo only had four such requests that year, two of them from Borderland Pride. This was a far cry from the 1990s, when Hamilton and London discriminated against Pride by excluding it from similar resolutions passed for everyone else.
