I have no particular expertise but historically Port Nelson was abandoned part way into construction, for Churchill, because of insurmountable difficulties. Take a look at a map which show the railway line, partially constructed at the time, veering north. Am I missing something?

The profile photo is a 1943 Victory nickel. Silver was critical to the war effort. It symbolizes the determination Canadians have to be the victors in the war declared on us by the USA.
Pierre #Poilievre seems to have a comprehension problem as he blathers on about never being the 28th state of the EU. That was never advocated ... but his little mind tries to twist everything into a negative.
He’s absolutely right. No subtlety whatsoever. NP and Postmedia are wholly discredited tools of Trump and Poilievre. Time for us to inform Canadian business that advertising in post media means no business from me.
The party’s lagging in the polls. The leader’s numbers are in the basement but nobody’s got the guts to challenge him so your plan is to lose the next election. No it’s not the GOP. Its the Conservative Party of Canada
If you need to see what the trade dispute is all about, this is it. Doing his best to isolate Canada
So while we are making Canadian government, more efficient, I got some suggestions. A month ago, my parents received a labour market study to fill out. They were told it was mandatory. I filled it out online and sent it in. They are 99 and 98 respectively, and retired 36 years ago.
Yet another one of the conservatives who has deluded themselves into thinking it’s all Canada’s fault. They’d rather surrender to Trump than see anybody other than a far right Conservative succeed in this country.
The business and academic communities are infested with surrender monkeys — that’s how we got here in the first place.
You wonder why Canadians don’t want US milk on their shelves?
Horizon organic milk is recalled The recall affects more than 760,000 cartons of milk sold in 12- and 18-count cases. The product was distributed nationwide, but the report does not specify which retailers or foodservice businesses may have received the recalled milk.
Leaving aside, the fact that all this over the top response is premise on a complete this characterization of what is actually happening, isn’t it kind of funny to see Jivani pointing the finger at someone for having outrageous and ridiculous ambition?
Poilievre is just thirsting for something he can twist into a weapon. Every time there’s something that comes remotely close to it, he jumps up and down and start screaming. What a pathetic moron.
Yet another example of politicians telling people they can’t control their own body.
Speaking as somebody who spent this entire century watching his mum die in pain and humiliation, this decision is a big fat load of shite. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
Lots of morning and groaning about stuff that may or may not happen. You also have to generate wealth in order to be able to distribute it and spend it on programs.
I was going to be harsher in my comment, I suggesting that Poilievre was being clever with this answer. I’ve decided instead to apply Hanlon’s razor and conclude it stupidity, not malice. But really, how incompetent is this to head into this interview without already having a better line in hand.
He’s telling the truth. He IS confused. But not confused enough to stop pandering to MAGA.
Poilievre is full of crap. Canadians aren't dumb! Canadians aren't "confused" about what a trade and diplomatic war against Canada means. They know damn well what "51st state" means. And they also know damn well what it means when a Trumpist moron labels the country a "little yippy dog".
Trumps new trade punishment looks both amateurish and last minute. He claims to be the overlord of the western hemisphere. Looks to me like he couldn’t organize a good crap.
During Trump‘s first term adult supervision, kept some guard rails on, such that it was largely White House staff that knew to a certainty that Trump was a moronic loser. This time around, having surrounded himself with nothing but other moronic, losers, it’s readily apparent to all.
Funny isn’t it how OBSESSED they are with Canada. If they were confident. Of anything they wouldn’t be doing this crap. Frightened children they are.
Jordanian editorial cartoonist Osama Hajjaj salutes Canada’s response to the U.S. bloviator in chief.
Yesterday‘s US job numbers come from a source where the honest people were fired. They don’t match up with other objective measures. Not even close. But the story points out the incompetence of the US regime. Trump cooked the numbers only to fond that they would put upper pressure on interest rates
Interesting treatment of job numbers from August on the MSM in Canada. Not withstanding the massive gains in Q3 so far, Canadian jobs decline is treated as the impending doom from American trade issues. American numbers, demonstrably suspect, are treated as firm, and sign that Trump is winning.
