While we await the details of the US trade negotiations, I'm urging the Prime Minister not to grant any concessions that would further undermine our economic independence.

When the US struggles to put out wildfires, Canada has always been there to lend a hand. But when Canada struggles with the same, all Trump has for us are threats and insults. Canadians are tired of it.

1/ Outrageous and unacceptable. The Namaygoosisagagun First Nation wasn’t warned of the blaze that burned their community to the ground and were not given supports to evacuate.
OTTAWA – A small Ontario First Nations community that was burned to the ground by a raging wildfire on Monday is being deprived of the help it needs because the federal government doesn’t recognize it as a First Nation, the community’s lawyer said.
This is how democratic norms erode. Trump is turning counterterrorism into a tool to target the political left, and Canada is showing up to legitimize it. We should be defending democracy and civil liberties, not giving credibility to authoritarian politics. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

1/ Trump is fuelling a new McCarthyism that is both delusional and dangerous. It’s clearly intended to crack down on Americans who are resisting his anti-democratic agenda. It’s also a serious escalation of violent authoritarianism from our next door neighbour.
The Trump administration is hosting a high-level global meeting on combating “political terrorism” in Washington — a move experts have described as a politically-motivated crackdown on left-wing movements. Canada is one of more than 60 countries attending. Just in from @markramzy.bsky.social:
Incredibly brazen for the Prime Minister to boast about the “lasting benefits” of expanding fossil fuel production on a day like today. Record-breaking heatwaves. Toxic smoke engulfing cities and towns. Out of control wildfires forcing entire communities to evacuate. /1
The world wants to do more with Canada. Our MOU with Alberta will unlock those opportunities in energy — and create lasting benefits for Canadians.

The PM needs to explain the math of the Gordie Howe Bridge deal. The tolls were supposed to pay the taxpayer back. Now 50% for the first 15 years is being put into a development fund. The New York Times is reporting that 50% will be controlled and accessed by Americans.
Mark Carney sold out Cuba at the UN. If you are lobbyist for a pesticide company or an oil giant looking for a handout he's got your back but a nation being crushed by an illegal blockade? Well that's another story. Call your Liberal MP and ask why. canadiannetworkoncuba.ca/2026/07/07/c...

The federal government’s proposed “Defence, Security and Resilience Bank” sounds technocratic and reassuring. It’s not. /1
"After promising in the MOU that if a PL was to be built, it would have to be financed and operated by the private sector, we've learned that "Canada and Alberta will be equal partners..." Another project funded by taxpayers, even as oil companies are expected to earn $60B in profits this year."
The PM tried to find a"win-win" scenario with Canada's oil giants. This is why he rolled back the modest regulations that would have lowered emissions. But big Oil doesn't do "win-win". They win. End of story. My latest on the politics of a petro state. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Canada Day extreme weather brought to you by climate change, which Carney announced yesterday we can’t afford to properly fight 🤗
It’s a national holiday, but I’m working — because Prime Minister Mark Carney made what I’d argue will be one of the most consequential announcements of his time in office yesterday. Canada, under Carney, is abandoning major goals in our fight against the climate crisis. Here's what's going on:
Carney’s flight to Edmonton, where he’d hear Danielle Smith’s pipeline plan pitch, is grounded due to extreme weather —which is exacerbated by the climate crisis that pipeline plan would worsen 🤗 WHEEEEEEEEEE WHAT A WORLD
