250% for milk? 291% for butter? 208% for whey? 241% for CHEESE? Oh wait - those are actually tariffs that Canada imposed on the U.S. last year.

Radical leftist Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau promised to remain “boldly and apologetically Canadian” long after his decade-long term in power, expected to close Friday morning, ends in a video message to supporters. Trudeau is departing the prime minister’s office after surviving a staggering list of some of Canada’s biggest political scandals, including admitting to wearing blackface more times than he could remember, having no meaningful response to historic wildfires that burned through the dead of the Canadian winter, and saluting a Nazi soldier before the Canadian Parliament. Trudeau was forced out of office after a failed attempt to...

President Donald Trump threatened to slap a new 250% reciprocal tariff on Canadian lumber and dairy products, perhaps as soon as Friday, one day after pausing a 25% tariff on other Canadian goods.Trump made the comments to reporters in the Oval Office on Friday, citing Canada’s 250% tariffs on U.S. dairy exports to the north.“Canada has been ripping us off for years on lumber and on dairy products,” Trump told reporters. “They will be met with the exact same tariff unless they drop it. That’s what reciprocal means.”“We may do it as early as today, or we’ll wait until Monday...

Justin Trudeau was brought to tears as he spoke of the ongoing feud with President Trump and the US-imposed tariffs that have rattled Canada in his final days as prime minister. Trudeau, 53, appeared at a press conference on Thursday in Ottawa, where he discussed childhood health care, but became visibly emotional while vowing that he’s always “Canadians first.” “On a personal level, I made sure that every single day in this office, I put Canadians first, and I have people’s backs, and that’s why I’m here to tell you all that we got you,” the outgoing PM said as...

President Trump announced he renamed a wildlife refuge after Jocelyn Nungaray who was murdered by a criminal illegal alien. Jocelyn loved animals... Nungaray, who mouthed the words “thank you” to Trump during the speech, had a right to be furious with his political opponents. But in her Hannity interview, she sounded almost clinically detached, describing Democrats as virtually unhinged from the kind of basic morality Americans should expect from their politicians — even liberal politicians. “They don’t stand for anything humane,” she said. “They don’t stand for us as citizens, they don’t stand for our security. They don’t stand for...

President Trump has accused Justin Trudeau of using the drama over tariffs to “stay in power,” following an explosive phone call with the Canadian prime minister as the war of words between Washington and Ottawa heated up on Wednesday. Trump once again branded Canada’s leader “Governor” — a nod to his claim that America’s northern neighbor would be better off as America’s 51st state — in the blistering broadside. He also slammed Trudeau for presiding over “Weak Border Policies,” that he said had led to drugs and illegal immigrants “pour[ing] into the United States,” in a rant on his Truth...

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered a strong rebuke of President Donald Trump's decision to level punishing tariffs on their country. He cited the Wall Street Journal to criticize Trump, and call his decision 'dumb.' 'Donald, they point out that even though you are a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do,' he said angrily at a press conference on Tuesday.

Was Chrystia Freeland's grandfather a nazi? Chrystia Freeland's maternal grandfather, Michael Chomiak (also spelled Mykhailo Khomiak), was a Ukrainian journalist who worked as the chief editor of Krakivski Visti, a Ukrainian-language newspaper published in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II. The newspaper was established in 1940 by the German authorities, operated under Nazi supervision, and was printed on presses confiscated from a Jewish publisher who was later killed in a concentration camp. Historical records, including those from the Holocaust museums in Los Angeles and Washington, indicate that Krakivski Visti published antisemitic content and Nazi propaganda, including support for the formation...

The Canadian government has halted an inquiry into claims of mass burials of children at former Church-run residential schools – after not one grave was discovered. Claims of the abuse and murders of hundreds indigenous children have triggered arson attacks, vandalism and the desecration of about 120 churches across Canada amid an outpouring of national grief. The hysteria even reached the Vatican with Pope Francis using an Angelus address to lament “the shocking discovery of the remains of 215 children”. The Canadian government set up the National Advisory Committee on Residential Schools, Missing Children and Unmarked Burials to investigate the...

Far-left Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised the Ukrainian government $5 billion taken from seized Russian assets and several other forms of aid during a visit to Kyiv on Monday marking the third anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of that country. The visit was preceded by a phone conversation between Trudeau and American President Donald Trump, who has prioritized brokering an end to the war with Russia directly. Notably, readouts and reports on the contents of that call published this weekend indicated that the topic of conversation was primarily Ukraine, rather than the Canada-U.S. relationship.

Following Canada's 3-2 overtime win over Team USA in the 4 Nations Face-Off championship, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau posted a celebratory message on social media. It was also a clear reference to the rising political tensions between the two countries. Team USA and Canada added another chapter to their storied rivalry on Thursday night. After playing to a 2-2 tie through 60 minutes, the game went to overtime, and Connor McDavid became a national hero with the game-winning goal. Shortly after Connor McDavid's shot hit the back of the U.S. net, Trudeau posted about the dramatic victory on X....

Disgraced Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took a shot at the United States Thursday after Canada’s national team beat the U.S. in the 4 Nations Hockey championship game. “You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game,” the Canadian PM crowed after the game in a statement on X. It seems clear that Trudeau’s first comment was in response to Trump’s joking that Canada should become America’s 51st state. However, his last statement is at odds with the fact that a Canadian team has not won hockey’s Stanley Cup since 1993. It appears Americans have taken Canada’s...
