Tell that to Poilievre, Harper. He's doing everything he can to divide Canadians.

Call it a “New World Order” or a “Trade and Defence Realignment,” but the shift is real. Canada & China struck a major deal, the EU made deals with Brazil and India, and NATO deployed to Greenland, all in 2 days. Whatever this is, it’s a global realignment happening without the U.S. at the centre.

We will get a trickle of Chinese made EVs every year, 50,000, but will start making EVs in Canada with the Chinese too! Bye bye overpriced Swasticars!!
We will see these on the road along with Hondas and other Asian car nows! Woop woop, quality and safety instead of unsafe Teslerrrr.
We came to Beijing for Canada to forge a new strategic partnership with China — we’ll be returning with a new trade agreement and billions of dollars in export markets unlocked for Canadian workers.

Denmark is boosting its military presence in Greenland with a small “tripwire” force meant to deter escalation. It’s not a NATO mission, though allies like Germany and Sweden may join. Canada hasn’t committed, and experts say joining would carry major political weight.

On paper, this token force is being deployed to bolster the island's security in response to U.S. complaints. What is extraordinary, perhaps even unprecedented, is that it serves as message more to th...

PM Carney’s first day in Beijing included new agreements on clean and conventional energy, pet‑food exports and tourism, plus a renewed crime‑fighting pact. Ottawa says talks on lowering Chinese tariffs on pork, canola and seafood were “productive.”

Ministers Joly and Hodgson, in Beijing with PM Mark Carney, discussed new Canada–China agreements on energy, forestry, crime and food safety. They also addressed talks that could see Canada lower EV tariffs if China eases duties on canola and other food products.
