    Iran Super Thread- Merged

    In the years past I have flown them, within the US and to PR once. About the same level as flying SouthWest Airlines.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    Will the pivot towards Cuba happen before or after the midterm elections in November?

    Pipelines, energy and natural resources

    And that is why we need at least another 1.5m bpd pipeline to the sea and another 2+ LNG facilities to the sea. You have to wonder what it would take to get Quebec on board with a pipeline through Quebec.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Not completely accurate. I believe that they have said that they are exploring the selling off of some (all?) of the Federal gov't ownership in the airports. A report from CD Howe put Pearson airport, and a number of others across Canada, at 17 billion and that was 11yrs ago.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Oh, so like the Budapest Agreement? So the EU and/or the UK can basically just ignore it completely after Trump is gone.

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    If its not a really a great idea, ordinary Canadians won't invest in it and it will whither away into nothing.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Nice. So, what legality do these deals really have? Once Trump is no longer President, can the 'deal' even be held in place?

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    It will be interesting to see if Congress flips in November if Congress takes it upon itself to nullify these 'trade deals' and go back to the status quo before Trump started his campaign of 'winning'.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Here's another example of Trump making a deal with someone - in the example, the EU - only to decide on his own to 'tweak' the deal again because he's not happy with something. It totally begs the question that has been asked numerous times in the past - what's the point of even having a deal...

    Go read over the sobering stats that I posted earlier today that the UK is facing now with the US.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    People are getting their panties all in a twist about him going down there. Who cares? How many US Senators and Congressperson's have come up here over the last 12 months meeting with our politicians all talking about the need for the tariffs to come down and how bad Trump is and how much...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Until its stood up and the mandates are written, its ALL speculation. I remember when the CPPIB was being stood up, the exact same arguments were being put forward then. The exact same. It was the brain child of Paul Martin - a businessman turned politician and arguably one of the best Min...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    It will be interesting to see how the advances of technology and AI will whittle down some of the need for someone to be 'physically fit' in order to perform their responsibilities. Hypothetically speaking, could someone who is wheelchair bound or an amputee pilot a MQ-9B or some of the first...

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    Coming from AI - the question I asked was - "US exports to the UK from May 1 2025 to March 1 2026" During the period from May 2025 to March 2026, U.S. exports to the United Kingdom were characterized by significant growth, largely driven by a bilateral trade arrangement announced in May 2025...

    So the US slaps a flat 10% tariff against almost all goods from the UK, as well as implements quotas in certain industries and the result is 1yr later..... https://www.cnbc.com/2026/05/01/uk-exports-us-fall-25-trump-tariffs-liberation-day.html UK exports to U.S. plunge by 25% after Trump’s...

    Canada moves to 2% GDP end of FY25/26 - PMMC

    Valid concerns about investing inside vs outside the country. Luckily the CPPIB has had these sort of issues over its existence. IF the proposed CDN SWF is structured in the same manner as the CPPIB, it stands to reason that it won't have to address these sort of issues as well.

    I appreciate the time and effort that you put into this response. I can only wish that this sort of detailed, factual based response could be put out there for the media to properly disseminate.

    Here's a link to what the CPPIB owns or has a stake in. https://www.cppinvestments.com/the-fund/investment-programs/investment-real-assets/ Some examples: Aéroports de Paris (Groupe ADP) - Groupe ADP is an international airport operator based in Paris, and owns and manages Parisian...
