In-depth conservative coverage of Canada, U.S.-Canada relations, Canadian politics, border security, trade disputes, and their impact on American sovereignty and national interests.
The US-Canada trade war is stuck. Trump says he is "in no rush," and Washington will hold its position until Canada wants to "get to yes." Meanwhile, Prime Minister Mark Carney courts Europe, China and India, even though about 72 percent of Canada's goods exports still go to the United States, and two provinces question Canada itself.
On July 1, 2026, the U.S. officially refused to renew USMCA. "The United States did not agree to renew the USMCA in its current form," said USTR Jamieson Greer. The trade deficit is Trump's primary concern: 197,000 million dollars with Mexico plus 46,000 million with Canada in 2025, more than double what it was when USMCA took effect.
Canada just opened its doors to Chinese electric vehicles, slashing tariffs from 100% to 6.1%. But this is not about Canada. BYD, Chery, and Geely are rushing in with dealerships — not to sell cars in Canada, but to use it as a springboard to conquer the American auto market. China's global EV invasion is already underway.
Canada Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act, passed the Senate 45 to 13 on June 4, 2026. It removes the "good faith" religious defence that protected Bible-based teaching since the 1970s. Pastors have already been jailed. One final vote stands between this law and Royal Assent.
The Canada Arctic NATO race is accelerating. Russia controls the Northern Sea Route. China pursues its Polar Silk Road. Canada just announced $40,000 million in Arctic defense investments — including NORAD modernization, radar systems, and base upgrades. The frozen frontier is no longer remote. It is the next great-power battleground.
Alberta Separatists have formally submitted nearly 302,000 signatures to trigger a historic referendum on leaving Canada. As radical leftist policies alienate western provinces, the push for independence grows. Joining America could bring massive economic freedom, yet cautious optimism remains key as true statehood faces hurdles.
Trump just greenlit another major cross-border pipeline, calling it “a huge deal in terms of long-term energy dominance and energy security.” While Biden-era policy treated pipelines like a moral crime, Trump is restoring them as strategic infrastructure — rebuilding the physical backbone of North American energy strength.
Carney claims “the U.S. has changed,” but Canada has long maintained trade barriers hitting 270% on American dairy. President Trump finally confronted Ottawa's protectionist supply-management system, over-quota tariffs and “buy Canadian” rules choking U.S. exports. Real allies don't hide behind 300% walls then demand reciprocity from Washington.
