If Mr. Harper had sent a message to the current PM indicating he was going to visit the President and that message was only in 1 language, the imbecile PM in Ottawa would have blamed the memo, and the CTV would have carried that message unabridged and without question.
There’s no pleasing the #Libranos or their media, why bother trying to?
Clearly President Trump knows that not all Canadians are imbeciles, but will be relieved to know that not all Canadian politicians are imbeciles as well.
Perhaps Mr. Harper will outline the timeline for PM Trudeau’s exit…
Yeah, really difficult to bindside a workaholic like JT.
Ironic isn’t it.
Trudeau never gave a staight answer ever on his visit to the Aga Khan’s private island, but Harper must follow convention and advise the PMO aka Gerald Butts if he’s visiting a White House security advisor.

Indeed. The corrupt CTV News is a paid-and-bought-for mouthpiece for the federal Trudeau Liberals. Catch the biased headline for this CTV drivel.
Does PM Dishonest & Weak and the Lieberal Party of A$$holes inform Mr. Harper every time they blame him for every thing it can think of?
Maybe he will return with some good suggestions for Trudeau and Freeland on how to solve the issue. But would they be sensible enough to even listen? I am not confident of that.
If it was offered think of the numerous head explosions coming out of the PMO.

Except Canada produced about 14 million metric tons last year. Enough to fill 700,000 semi trailers! Produced not relabeled or whatever made up theory here.
In contrast we imported 0.8 mmt from China and 4.8 mmt from the USA.
You guys really need to look this up rather than just making stuff up.
Steel production figures from an imports report? Page 6 chart right?
My source for production was https://tradingeconomics.com/canada/steel-production, which being late when I posted I misstated as annual instead of monthly.
However I can not find your import numbers in the import report, and instead find:
“The
United States by far accounted
for the largest share of Canada’s

percent (1.2 mmt), followed by
China at 7 percent (142
thousand metric tons)”
Where do your numbers come from?

Omar Kromah was one of a group of men who gang raped a young teen in a darkened bathroom, a judge ruled Tuesday…
…Eamon noted she feared for her safety and that of her family if she went to authorities about the assault, but she “did so anyway” and identified Kromah in a photo lineup.
…A third suspect, Zakariya Abdow, was fatally stabbed on the Stampede Grounds in July 2015, more than a year after the sexual assault.
Having said that:
“The men and the teen girl had been smoking marijuana while the males consumed alcohol prior to the assault, court heard.”
Perhaps smoking dope with three strange men of undetermined ethnic origin and religious persuasion in a bathroom isn’t the smartest thing to do?

“Trudeau Government Stiffs Canada’s Steel Industry, Builds New Navy Supply Ships With US Steel Instead
And the shipyard where it’s being constructed is owned by a US company.
As I’ve said many times before, Canada must have a much stronger homegrown defence industry in order for our nation to be truly independent.
That has been made extremely clear after a new Ottawa Citizen report which notes that Canada’s new navy supply ships are being built with American steel, not Canadian Steel.
As noted in the report, “The supply ships are being built at the Vancouver shipyards of Seaspan, which is owned by a U.S. company. The Department of National Defence confirmed the steel is being purchased from a mill in Alabama, a solidly Republican state that voted 62 per cent for Trump.””
“Canada must have a much stronger homegrown defence industry in order for our nation to be truly independent”
If Canada wants to be taken seriously as a country it needs to have some kind of policy, any kind of policy, aimed at defending itself.
When it comes to defense spending and military procurement, we are such a minor player worldwide that I would prefer we bought all our military requirements right off the shelf. That way union feather bedding and all the political graft and corruption that goes with awarding contracts for military spending would take on a less important role.
“If Canada wants to be taken seriously as a country it needs to have some kind of policy, any kind of policy”

“‘We won’t win a trade war with the U.S.,’ Bernier warns”
Former industry minister Maxime Bernier blasted the Trudeau government’s response to escalating trade tensions Wednesday, arguing Canada will not win a trade war against the United States.
In a series of tweets, Bernier said the promised $16.6 billion retaliatory trade package, placed on a wide range of American products, would hurt Canadian consumers. The tariffs are set to take effect July 1.
Bernier criticized Ottawa’s promise to provide government support to the country’s steel and aluminium industries and insisted Canada is headed in the “WRONG direction.”
Canada, he noted, faces a “dangerous escalation of conflict with our main trading partner,” a situation that has resulted in decreased investment in this country.
-New tariffs on US imports that will harm Can consumers
-More gov aid to businesses
-Dangerous escalation of conflict with our main trading partner
-Investment down because of uncertainty
-No measures to restore tax competitiveness”
“The Quebec MP’s tweets appear to undermine what has been a united front amongst Canadian politicians during the trade fight with Washington. Wednesday afternoon Conservative Deputy Leader Lisa Raitt said she supported the Trudeau government’s retaliatory tariff package.”
Virtuous little Canader will no longer have all it’s uniforms made in foreign countries unless they guarantee fair wage and labor rules. It’s apparently a $147 million per year in uniform contracts of every type from the RCMP to military to prison guards,so why the hell can’t they make ’em in Canada?!
“Virtuous little Canader will no longer have all it’s uniforms made in foreign countries”
Back in the day, absolutely everything military was made in Quebec. How did that ever end?
I assume the Quebec companies either moved operations offshore or made contracts with companies in third world countries to produce the items, but still profit handsomely from this boondoggle. It’s the Quebec way.
Canadian taxpayers are about to be hit with a carbon tax that will cost about $1000 per year in the Maritimes, $650 per year in Manitoba and B.C.
To the political elite,this amounts to spare change, to a lot of Canadians, it’s a significant cost to their budget. And all to pretend to save the planet from a mythological apocalypse.
And the carbon tax is not designed to reduce carbon emissions, it is designed to reduce dollars in your wallet and put them into government coffers to be wasted as usual.
Carbon-tax fanatics use fake facts to trick Ford into breaking his promise. ( I have not heard that Ford has broken his promise to scrap the Ontario carbon taxes, so this article caption is misleading)

“By Refusing To Scrap The Carbon Tax, Trudeau Has Already Economically Surrendered To Trump
How can we attract jobs and investment to Canada when it’s so much cheaper to do businesses in the US?
The US is obviously a much bigger economy than Canada. However, that doesn’t mean we don’t compete with them in many ways.
As societies that both feature a large proportion of English speakers, relatively similar labour standards, and integrated trade and supply chains, many companies look at Canada and the US as very compatible markets, and are willing to set up shop in either country.
So, the choice for companies comes down to where they can make the most profit. When companies pick Canada, we gain jobs and investment, and our country becomes more prosperous. When they pick the US, an opportunity for Canada is lost.

“By Refusing To Scrap The Carbon Tax, Trudeau Has Already Economically Surrendered To Trump
How can we attract jobs and investment to Canada when it’s so much cheaper to do businesses in the US?
The US is obviously a much bigger economy than Canada. However, that doesn’t mean we don’t compete with them in many ways.
As societies that both feature a large proportion of English speakers, relatively similar labour standards, and integrated trade and supply chains, many companies look at Canada and the US as very compatible markets, and are willing to set up shop in either country.
So, the choice for companies comes down to where they can make the most profit. When companies pick Canada, we gain jobs and investment, and our country becomes more prosperous. When they pick the US, an opportunity for Canada is lost.
In that way, Canada does compete with the US.”

“The nightmare for American progressives is here” (lmartin-g-m)
“The clincher came with Wednesday’s announcement that Justice Anthony Kennedy, a swing voter, is retiring; the pending Trump replacement is sure to be of staunch rightward views.
The upshot is a nightmare turned into reality for American progressives.
Republicans now stand to have firm control of the court for years, possibly a generation.”
