Political impacts of Ukraine war

As part of Carney's trip to Ukraine/Poland/Germany/Latvia:

Though not specifically called out as part of Carney's talks with Poland today, other than to say 'expand trade with Poland', I did find this 4 days old article out of Poland and nuclear energy and the mention of Canada interesting.

South Korea’s KHNP has withdrawn from Poland’s planned second nuclear power plant project, leaving U.S.-based Westinghouse, France’s EDF, and Canada’s AtkinsRéalis in the race.

Possibly a "we buy your subs, you drop your bid in Poland" type deal?

I wonder which CDN bank moved that gold to Portugal….

Well, the Bank of Canada got someone to absolve THEM in 1997, so ....

The Bank of Canada today released a report by Professor Duncan McDowall of Carleton University entitled Due Diligence: A report on the Bank of Canada's handling of foreign gold during World War II.

I don't think so, according to the article the SK's have to pay a 'fee' to Westinghouse for using their technology in SK nuclear reactors, coupled with the 'requirement' for the US Gov't to sign off on the SK sale to foreign countries for using this technology and then finally that extra 'fee' to Westhinghouse makes the SK's price uncompetitive.
