Has anybody considered that forcing an election could be the point?
If it’s true, as the fine WSJ article reports, that Mark Carney is proposing that Canada becomes an associate member of the EU, then he must call an election. He has no mandate for this. The Conservatives will and should oppose it, preferring closer US ties. Voters must decide.

"Just getting started" in their 11th year in power. No wonder nothing can get built in this country!
We're just getting started. #LIB2026

My latest: Poilievre’s right — high-speed rail is shaping up to be a “$90-billion dollar boondoggle.” Only it’s likely to be much more than that theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

MAGA celebrating “we got a deal to build bases and missile defense in Greenland!” Yeah man, we’ve had that since the Cold War…
This is such an absurd propaganda line that they are forced into now.

Extra innings in Game 7 of the World Series. As it should be for a series like this.

When the Blue Jays last won the title, they had the highest payroll in MLB ($45.7M). That’s $102M in today’s dollars. $116.3M: What the Blue Jays pay their top five highest paid players this year.

Not all the tariffs. Auto. Steel. Aluminum tariffs on Canada are still in place because they were applied using a different law.
Replying to @davidfrum
After the Supreme Court conferred substantial criminal impunity on Trump, I lost confidence that the courts would do much to restrain his wrongful acts, no matter how blatant. The Court of International Trade however held the constitutional line. The Trump tariffs are paused.

They granted a permanent injunction, so IEEPA tariffs are gone unless the administration successfully appeals all the way up through the chain to a decision in its favour by the top court.
US Court of International Trade just issued decision in case against Trump tariffs filed by @LJCenter and me. All "Liberation Day"/IEEPA tariffs ruled illegal, and blocked by injunction! see link for opinion. I will have much more to say soon: cit.uscourts.gov/sites/cit/f…

I have two burning questions this morning. First, why wasn’t Prime Minister Carney more transparent about ending Ottawa’s counter-tariffs the day after his meeting with President Trump on May 7? And second, for Loblaw—now that most counter-tariffs are gone, why continue the “T” labelling strategy? And why are Canadians still being warned about higher food prices due to tariffs?
