There’s a difference between diversification and substitution. Canada needs alternatives to overdependence, but replacing U.S. dependence with China dependence would be worse, not better. Any move that weakens coordination with allies carries long-term costs, particularly in autos, manufacturing, and security cooperation. This isn’t about one trip. It’s about structural alignment.

The real danger in Canada-China trade isn’t scale. It’s over-dependence. China can buy Canadian goods, but it’s risky to let a sector or company become so dependent on the Chinese market that Beijing can use that dependence to apply political pressure. That isn’t a hypothetical. The Chinese Communist Party has a history of weaponising trade and economic ties to achieve its political objectives.

I look at this as an investor, not a politician. What’s happening between the U.S. and Canada isn’t noise, it’s a signal. The markets are already telling us these two economies are more valuable together than apart. Capital flows, currency strength, and trade data all point in the same direction. Defense, energy, agriculture, supply chains, none of this works in isolation. Canada and the U.S. are economically intertwined, whether leaders like it or not. The real conversation isn’t about tariffs or headlines. It’s about alignment, modernization, and long-term competitiveness. This is policy, not politics. And the numbers don’t lie.

Gazan woman calls for Jews to “leave and get out” of Israel, the Jewish people’s indigenous homeland, so it can become a “Palestinian state.” Let’s be clear: This isn’t about peace. This isn’t about two states. It’s about replacing one with none.

Former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns tells me that if President Trump does not move forward with the congressionally-approved Taiwan arms package, it would be “a major strategic move” and “the greatest mistake of Trump’s foreign policy in this second term.”

🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳The U.S. military’s heavy reliance on foreign supply chains, particularly China, has become a glaring strategic weakness. Ex-CIA Larry Johnson argues that with 78% of weapon systems vulnerable to these supply lines, Trump is "playing strip poker" in his underwear. While political rhetoric remains hawkish, the reality of economic and material dependence on global rivals limits the effectiveness of any long-term military campaign.

The U.S. is ramping up its fight against the Chinese Communist Party—but Europe and Canada are furious about it. As Western elites blame America and flirt with Beijing, China is quietly driving a wedge between allies. Why are U.S. partners turning on Washington while siding with the CCP?

Michael Kovrig before the Standing Committee on International Trade "In concluding, I would advise this Parliament and all Canadians to scrutinize the implementation and repercussions of these and any other new agreements with China." "And I would advise the government to move cautiously and transparently." "Otherwise Canada risks falling further into a trap of asymmetric dependence in which the CCP offers inducements, builds Canadian constituencies, expects political deference in return, and readily resorts to coercion to ensure compliance." "That's not a deal that Canada should take. Ephemeral stability purchased through accommodation today invites more coercion tomorrow." Michael Kovrig

Imagine Canada and the US united under one currency, tearing down tariffs, and opening borders for free-flowing trade and talent. It’s not just an idea, it’s a formula for creating a behemoth economy. With a “Uni” system, citizens and top global talent could move freely, innovate, and drive growth without barriers. This isn’t about losing sovereignty; it’s about building the most powerful economic force on Earth. Forget competing with China—we’d leave them in the dust.

This is a decapitation attack. A REGIME CHANGE attack. It’s no longer about nuclear weapons. It's about the U.S. not liking who's in power, or rather, Israel not liking who's in power. It's about replacing the government with one more to its liking.

Blowing up boats without proof isn’t justice; it’s what China or Iran would do. There’s no evidence of fentanyl and no due process. This isn’t about blowing up drug boats, it’s about talks of regime change in Venezuela. We’ve seen how that ends: chaos, not freedom. America shouldn’t kill first and nation-build later. More with Rob Schmitt on NEWSMAX.

Has Chrystia Freeland lost her f'ing mind?!? "The US is turning predator, and so what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies. I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark who is also being threatened, and our NATO European allies. I would be sure that France and Britian were there who possess NUCLEAR WEAPONS and I will be working urgently with these partners to build a closer security relationship that guarantees our security in a time when United States can be a threat." She is talking about a nuclear alliance against America‼️ Holly shit!

"And we will be examining several avenues for cooperation, for collaboration, to heighten our people to people ties and to ensure that there are opportunities for populations both in Canada and in China."
