Canada US Relations Through Trudeau and Trump Tone
A reader reflects on a long period of political strain between the United States and Canada. Citing Fox News coverage and Dianne Francis in the Financial Post, the piece discusses Trump joking about Canada becoming a U.S. state and Trudeau calling Canada a post national state with no core identity, exploring implications for cross border ties and political attitudes. The writer notes Francis argues Trump unlikely to pursue Canada, while Trudeau’s remarks reveal a divided national self-image.

Tariffs harm economies echoing the Great Depression
Dr. Roslyn Kunin warns against protectionism and tariffs as remedies for slow growth. She argues open trade spurred by postwar gains has lifted living standards, citing U S GDP around 3 percent and unemployment near 4 percent while Canada and Europe lag. Tariffs raise prices, curb imports, reduce innovation, and trigger retaliatory cycles, risking stagnation.
