Trump’s Team Targets Canada’s Auto Manufacturing

Attacking the US and 'elbows up' really pays off doesn't it?

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick didn’t mince words this week. Speaking at the Eurasia Group’s U.S.–Canada Summit, he made clear that Washington’s trade agenda under President Trump has one simple priority: America first, Canada second.

These weren’t isolated fumbles, they were self-inflicted wounds from chasing social justice optics at the expense of reality. Now, Canada is the latest casualty, with “woke” poli...

As 50,000+ bureaucrats, lobbyists and politicians jet into Belém to tell you to “cut back,” we’re sending Sheila Gunn Reid and Kian Simone to show the luxury, the VIP perks — and Canada’s role — that the UN doesn’t want you to see.
