Director of European Transport Safety Council: "Europe now risks being flooded with oversized, under-regulated US pick-up trucks and SUVs – heavier, more dangerous to other car drivers, pedestrians and cyclists, and completely out of step with Europe’s vision for safer, more sustainable mobility.”
This is an INSANE decision by the E.U.

“By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the U.S., the E.U. has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice that puts trade convenience ahead of saving lives.”

This will kill people.

In response to the American tariffs, I have directed government and crown agencies to exclude US suppliers from any new purchasing or procurement agreements.

It’s just one of the actions we are taking to prioritize Canada first.

Remember what we couldn't finish in the last two years? Like Universal childcare, Pre-k, Paid Sick Leave, Civilian Climate Corps, HR1, or free community college.

Hello. This is a small, united community, and we reject racism and xenophobic comments.

Right now, we have a mission: we must elect this hotty to the US Senate to replace Josh Hawley, so we can pass laws to limit dark money from oligarchs like Elon Musk to influence the elections.
