The U.S. government has already signalled it will respond to this retaliation, as Trump threatens to increase tariffs on Canadian autos on Jan. 1 in what experts warn could be ”cataclysmic” for the Ontario-based sector.

Very well said. Canadian Conservatives attempting to import American-style political grievances into Canada 🇨🇦 and to scapegoat Theresa Tam in the process. “We don’t need American style political theatre”. Canadian Cons are absolutely repulsive and shameful. NEVER VOTE CONSERVATIVE.
It’s not the question that should bother you. It’s why they’re asking it now. Theresa Tam has already testified before parliamentary committees more than 20 times since 2020. So if this isn’t about getting answers, what is it about?

Carbon capture and storage has always been a way for the oil industry to avoid dealing with their climate obligations. So this scheme would seem to be very much on point.
You would think the idea would be that the companies could achieve increasingly stringent requirements by investing in CCUS, not that CCUS would help them avoid those requirements.

Good!! I understand how many Canadian military folks need to serve in the US military to get the training and experience they can’t get in our much, much smaller forces, but they shouldn’t be dragged into this. 🇨🇦
Canadian military personnel leave Iraq with NATO allies amid Iran war - Canadian Armed Forces members are among the NATO personnel who have left Iraq as the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran drags on.
