Today, The Bureau published “From ‘Elbows Up’ to ‘Shoulder to Shoulder’,” which I co-authored with @tozzi_piero.
Canada and the United States have real differences to resolve. Our shared objective should be a continental agreement on economic security that delivers fair trade, protects jobs and strengthens our integrated supply chains.
CUSMA already provides a foundation. Article 23.6 requires all three partners to prohibit imports made wholly or partly with forced labour. Article 26.1 provides a forum for cooperation against market-distorting practices.
Those commitments must mean something.
The CCP’s pursuit of industrial dominance demands a coordinated response. Subsidised overcapacity can undercut our manufacturers, displace production and deepen dependence on Chinese supply chains.
In my view, Mark Carney has made a strategic miscalculation by opening an initial annual quota of 49,000 Chinese EVs at a 6.1% tariff as part of the broader bargain that secured canola tariff relief.
Saskatchewan farmers deserve lasting market access, @PremierScottMoe. Those gains must be weighed against the risks to our manufacturing capacity and long-term continental economic security.
If the Ford government inisists on allowing Chinese state enterprise investment in Ontario the Ford government must insist on rigorous conditions for partnerships with enterprises backed or directed by Beijing, including transparent ownership, protection of sensitive technology and verifiable supply chains free of forced labour. Ottawa must apply rigorous national security scrutiny under the Investment Canada Act.
Canada and the United States should stand shoulder to shoulder to defend fair trade, secure supply chains and our industrial future.

"As a prerequisite toward greater policy alignment, however, both sides must change their fundamental approach: Ottawa must recognize that its growing acceptance of Chinese integration creates security risks for the continent; at the same time, Washington’s threats and inflammatory rhetoric drive Canadians toward the very strategic accommodation the U.S. fears.
The democratic world’s industrial base, technology and resources must not be used to advance Beijing’s autocratic order but rather to preserve and strengthen a democratic alliance that shares its own authentic common destiny for humankind. A joint framework that comprehensively addresses China’s documented attempts to infiltrate North America is an economic, security and moral imperative."—Piero A.

Canada is changing how some skilled immigrants qualify for permanent residency, introducing new rules that could make it easier for employers to hire foreign workers. 🇨🇦
Starting November 3, eligible high-wage job offers under Express Entry will receive additional points based on salary, with higher-paying positions earning more points toward permanent residency.
Under the changes, employers hiring for qualifying positions will also be temporarily exempt from obtaining a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), removing the requirement to demonstrate that no Canadian worker is available to fill the job.
The changes are intended to attract skilled workers and simplify hiring in certain high-paying fields, including engineering, while raising questions about how Canadian job seekers could be affected.
Do you think employers should have to prove no Canadian is available before hiring foreign workers? 👇

“Fearmongering”
"The Canada Files describes itself as a “proudly socialist, anti-imperialist news organization” established to investigate Canadian foreign policy and the military-industrial complex.
Its publication history includes repeated criticism of Israel and organizations that combat antisemitism.
The outlet has also defended Laith Marouf, formerly a senior consultant to the Community Media Advocacy Centre, which received federal anti-racism funding before Canadian Heritage suspended the project over statements the department described as antisemitic and racist."

Carney is already floating the idea of increasing immigration again 🤦🏻♂️
He said it outside Canada, to the New York Times, after months of talking about bringing numbers down.
Meanwhile polls show most Canadians want fewer people, not more. Housing is still broken, affordability is still getting worse, and the response is to open the tap again.
This is the same pattern: promise control, then reverse course when it suits the narrative.
Is there anything he says that he means? Like talking out the side of his mouth, it’s like all you can expect is Lies!

Disgraceful
‼️ MAJOR BREAKING -
Starting Nov 3, the Liberals will let employers hire a foreign worker for a "high-wage" job with NO REQUIREMENT to try a Canadian first.
IT’S A DIRECT RESIDENCY PATH
Not a temporary visa you can send home.
Permanent status, right out of the gate.
Then comes the chain.
Permanent residency means sponsorship: spouse, kids, parents, grandparents to follow.
One approval becomes a household.
No requirement to offer the job to a Canadian first.
And "high-wage" is a trick.
It means the job category averages about $40/hr, roughly $84,000 a year.
BUT THE WORKER THEY ACTUALLY BRING DOESN’T HAVE TO BE PAID THAT.
The paycheque can be low.
Only the job title has to be high.
Weeks after 68,300 Canadians lost their jobs.

Three men wrapped a 77 yr old man's head in duct tape until he suffocated, brutally murdered his 76 yr old wife & slit her throat.
A BC judge just ruled that making them wait 25 years for parole is "cruel and unusual punishment."
Too cruel.
For the killers.
The victims got a death sentence.
The murderers, they get a constitutional right to hope.
We are doomed.

So Elbowzos - are you still clinging to the faint hope that Carney cares about your clear decline in living standards as he prepares for another massive immigration push
Oh and it’s really working well for Europeans. No wonder Carney wants to join and emulate

Our govt called the trucker protest something it wasn't. It was peaceful & they made it out to be dangerous. Macron tells the same kind of lie, but pretends it's young people/students, when it actually far more dangerous than that. They all seem to have a problem with the truth.

I guess I became Anti-Islam when I saw them behead Christians, burn people alive, chant death to America, stone women,
throw gays from rooftops, attack women with acid, practice female genital mutilation, enslave women,
and force child marriage.
And that's the short list.
What about you?

Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem is warning that persistently high global energy prices could push inflation higher than previously expected.
With conflict in the Middle East disrupting oil supplies and driving up fuel costs, Canadians could face renewed pressure at the pump and on heating bills.
Inflation has remained at 3% for two consecutive months, above the Bank’s 2% target. Macklem says interest-rate hikes remain possible if price pressures spread through the economy.
The Bank’s next rate decision and economic forecast are scheduled for October 28.
