Inside Trump’s Pressure Campaign to Derail Global Shipping Emissions Tax

On Friday, nations at a meeting of the UN’s International Maritime Organization voted to delay by one year a decision on the landmark measure that would force large vessels to curb emissions or potentially incur fees of $380 per ton.

​II. The Death of the Trades & The "Build Canada" Scam
​As someone who has worked in the trades for over 15 years, I see the "holes" in your Build Communities Strong Fund. You talk about "supercharging" homebuilding, but your policies are crushing the people who actually do the work:
​The Productivity Trap: You demand 500,000 homes a year while your "hidden" fuel taxes and inflation make it impossible for ...

Someone finally put the truth in print in a Red Deer obituary. She was 71.
