In the escalating controversy over CBC News guidance directing journalists not to describe the al-Qaeda attacks of September 11, 2001, as terrorism, FBI personnel assigned to American diplomatic posts in Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver were instructed to leave their workplaces and go home, according to a U.S. law-enforcement source with knowledge of interagency communications surrounding the incident.
When The Bureau presented the account to the FBI and asked detailed questions about its scope and operational consequences, the agency neither confirmed nor denied it.
“We will let the Director’s post speak for itself and have nothing additional to provide,” the FBI National Press Office responded.
[…]
On August 27, FBI Director Kash Patel issued an explicit public threat to Canadian agencies that did not repudiate CBC’s guidance:
“Any agency in Canada that doesn’t publicly reject this bastardization of history, and an insult to the souls lost during our largest terrorist attack in US history will no longer have friend in this FBI.”
The following day, Hoekstra reposted Patel’s warning and referenced the FBI’s direct intervention against significant terrorist and violent criminal organizations operating within Canada.
“Just this year, FBI has been instrumental in or directly responsible for multiple disruptions of significant terrorist and violent criminal organizations operating within Canada,” Hoekstra’s post said. “Failure to recognize and confront radical and terrorist ideologies significantly endangers our efforts to establish and harmonize a shared national and economic security partnership.”
Taken together, the two posts show that serious concerns were circulating at senior levels of U.S. law enforcement and diplomacy. The FBI maintains its Canadian legal-attaché headquarters at the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa, with suboffices at the American consulates in Toronto and Vancouver.

Every U.S. administration since Clinton has levied tariffs on Canadian goods, and every Canadian prime minister has fought to have them removed, with varying degrees of success.
When the last deal was announced, Donald Trump said Keystone XL Pipeline would be built as a result. THe Keystone XL announcement was a surprise as Mark Carney is vehemently oppsed to oil and gas development, he even wrote a book about it.
Ultimately, Carney pulled out of the deal citing tariffs on F450 trucks. FYI, Ford has manufactured ZERO Ford F450 or larger trucks in Canada in the last 5 years, but they were retooling to do so.
The killing of the Keystone XL Pipeline and the rejection of requests to sell LNG have cost the Canadians close to $1,000,000,000,000 in just a few years, we can’t possible sell enough F450 trucks to make up for what we have already lost.
At this point, every Canadian needs to be ask: what is Mark Carney’s agenda?
Ronald Reagan (1981–1989)
Signed the Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement (CUSFTA) in 1988, establishing systematic tariff reductions across most goods.
George H.W. Bush (1989–1993)
Initiated trilateral negotiations to expand CUSFTA into the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and signed the deal in 1992.
Bill Clinton (1993–2001)
Signed NAFTA into law (taking effect in 1994), drastically reducing trade barriers.
Imposed tariffs and countervailing duties on Canadian softwood lumber during ongoing trade disputes.
George W. Bush (2001–2009)
Imposed countervailing and anti-dumping duties reaching up to 27% on Canadian softwood lumber.
Negotiated the 2006 Softwood Lumber Agreement to temporarily suspend lumber tariffs.
Barack Obama (2009–2017)
Rejected the cross-border permit for the Keystone XL pipeline in 2015.
Signed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal in 2016 alongside Canada (which the U.S. later withdrew from before ratification).
Donald Trump (2017–2021 & 2025–present)
First Term: Renegotiated NAFTA into the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), approved the Keystone XL presidential permit, and placed Section 232 tariffs on Canadian steel (25%) and aluminum (10%) in 2018 (later lifted).
Second Term: Invoked national emergency acts and trade law provisions to impose broad tariffs on Canadian imports, including select automotive, alcohol, and dairy products. Rescinded the Keystone XL cancellation order and granted new cross-border pipeline permits.
Joe Biden (2021–2025)
Revoked the presidential permit for the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office, officially causing TC Energy to cancel the cross-border energy project.
Doubled tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber from 8.99% to 17.9% in 2021 (later adjusted down to 8.58% in 2022).
Maintained Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) electric vehicle tax credits that initially threatened Canadian automotive manufacturing, though Canadian supply chains were ultimately integrated into the final legislation.

This post looks like the start of a VERY sophisticated and well-funded PR operation to get support for Democrats to regulate AI into oblivion. Let me show you how it works:
1.) This guy, with minimal followers and no previous account activity, goes to the Wall Street Journal which publishes an exclusive with quotes from him on his resignation 18 minutes BEFORE this post goes up. Planning was clearly done in advance.
2.) Within hours, it has tens of thousands of reposts and the account has 100k+ followers. The post is punchy, quotable, it almost seems professionally written. The first three accounts to quote tweet it all do so within 15 minutes of the initial posting. Remember, this account had basically zero engagement beforehand, so an organic reach explanation seems unlikely.
According to Grok those accounts are @_NathanCalvin (General Counsel at Encode AI), @peterwildeford (Head of Policy at the AI Policy Network), and @DKokotajlo (Head of the AI Futures Project), all of which are up-and-coming AI-Doomer policy advocacy nonprofits.
And posted by a guy who had worked for Anthropic a mere two months. Dave Rubin summarizes.
I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

Deliberately choosing to pay more than you need to for inputs doesn’t make your province richer; the reality is quite the opposite. My guess is that the “buy local” gambit is going to be used not only as an excuse to shut out American suppliers but suppliers in other provinces as well. In any case, there’s no way a few sales to the Quebec government can replace the losses from being unable to sell into a market ten times the size of Canada’s.
The Quebec government has announced a series of measures to promote buying locally in response to the escalating trade war between Canada and the United States.
Premier Christine Fréchette says the measures will inject about $1.5 billion into the Quebec economy in the next four months.
A B.C. family doctor has been ordered to pay $28,100 after refusing to inject a transgender teen with a prescribed hormone blocker, citing religious and cultural reasons.
Dr. Henry Ajaero, who has run a family practice in Delta since 2014, was ordered to pay the compensation in a Sept. 1 B.C. Human Rights decision, which found his conduct was discriminatory.
In March 2021, Ajaero told a transgender teen and her mother who made an appointment at his practice that he would not inject a prescribed medication called Lupron, saying “he did not feel comfortable administering it.”
A smart provincial government could be poaching those doctors seeking escape. This would, however, require the backbone to actually take on the child mutilation cult in Saskatchewan and shut it down.
Shut up, racist. It’s their culture.
An Alberta First Nation says it aims to defy Premier Danielle Smith’s government by establishing a safe haven for gender-affirming medical care — contrary to provincial law.
The Saddle Lake Cree Nation, located northeast of Edmonton near St. Paul, says health care is a right under Treaty 6 and falls under its inherent jurisdiction.
The First Nation has invoked the “medicine chest clause” provision from the treaty signed in 1876, which Indigenous Peoples interpret as a promise to provide comprehensive health care.
“All children, including trans and two-spirit children and their family, will have safety under our treaty,” Saddle Lake Chief Dale Steinhauer said on Wednesday.
A former senior Canadian defence official suing the federal government over a dismissal her lawyer links to Mark Carney’s pivot toward China is pointing to the government’s newly disclosed military engagement with Beijing — and to what she calls growing public recognition that Canada’s partnership with China has impeded trade talks with Washington.
Raquel Garbers was the principal architect of the small team that drafted Canada’s 2024 defence policy, Our North, Strong and Free. On Oct. 15, 2025, she published an opinion piece warning that Ottawa’s increasingly anti-American rhetoric was dividing the Western alliance and benefiting Beijing and Moscow.
Those hostile states — principally China — had been waging a covert war against Canada and the United States for about a decade, Garbers wrote. Two days later, Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand was in Beijing describing China as a strategic partner. Four weeks after that, Garbers was told her position was being eliminated.
