*DAIRY

In 2024, Canadian farmers exported $331 million in dairy products to the US, and American farmers exported $1.14 billion (3.4 times as much). Donald Trump's plan for high dairy tariffs in both directions is a good one. Canadian farmers will be allowed to produce 18% more product.

Trudeau: We’re probably going to keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans, we're not booing you. We're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. 

But we're Canadian. We're going to fight. And we're going to win.

We used to get invited to stuff like this.
The summit in London has begun.

European and NATO leaders have gathered to discuss the future of humanity and Ukraine, without the United States. This is the largest reconfiguration of nations since World War 2.
