    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    That "3.3%" growth is based on the .08% growth in the second quarter of 2026, and is the projected annualized growth IF this growth continues. We haven't felt the effects of Trump's tariffs yet. So what if John Ivison is bureau chief of Ottawa NP? He has been correct and incorrect several...

    This gets interesting. Brian Lilley (Toronto Sun) points out that the Orange Man down south, also needs media distraction. Apparently his massive debt is really not going well with his own people. So having a spat with Canada provides a distraction. Brian also offers up some other insights...

    Personally, don't care. Its their country and they suffer the consequences. Especially when they mostly check paper work for "food safety" (I had to look it up) Up here, I have worked at one federally inspected meat plant and 2 provincial (Ontario) abattoirs, I have seen first hand both sides...

    Originally it was mentioned "heavy metals" and that can be any number of real or "cop out" reasons But a potent antibiotic is narly. Argentina is a big beef producer too.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    That is correct. It is a very potent antibiotic. Any biotics that are allowed to be used on animals have a mandatory withdrawal period. So cattle you give them injections for an infection (using an antibiotic) there is a 90 day withdrawal period before your allowed to slaughter for food.

    It is serious. What does that have to do with China sticking BS claims on foreign imports?

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    I think the auditor general and PAO should be given a bit more spotlight by the media. So far (Even Carney's hired PAO) they have not shown favouritism and call it like it is. We need regular Canadians to clearly see what these agencies say, and they can make far more informed decisions. On...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    FRom a beef farmer and former butcher of beef cattle. This is basically a BS cop out reason to screw someone over. Its like when they condemned our canola "for mould spores" when Trudeau slapped a tarrif on Chinese products a few years ago
