Canada pushes $5 billion port corridor amid election clash
Liberal Mark Carney unveiled a Trade Diversification Corridor Fund of five billion dollars to accelerate nation building at ports and rail hubs to diversify trade from the United States. He stood with port workers and Liberal candidates at the Port of Montreal as Trump spoke by phone. Carney urged renewed US-Canada talks after the election and promised heightened port security to curb fentanyl drug and gun trafficking while opponents outlined tougher criminal penalties for trafficking and gun crimes. Jagmeet Singh in Toronto proposed housing reforms and limits on corporate landlords to curb rising costs.
