I'm covering events on the Hill today but my colleagues are watching SCOTUS for us -- and indeed, those Ontario ads did come up: https://t.co/atscX7Q7qi

Proxy war alert
Walking past @CanEmbUSA the Canadian Embassy here in Washington right now, and thought you’d all like to see the @BlueJays banner hanging near the entrance.

Tim gave SO freely and frequently of himself so we would all better understand the sacrifices Canadians make in war. And we all relied on and enjoyed his insight. What an understatement to say this is terrible. We are all sending love to his family. https://t.co/fGqaQL8pSG

As someone with a personal Venn diagram that intersects "Queen fan", "Symphonic music fan" and "Lives in a family of rabid Jays fans", this is ticking all my boxes... Amazed that as with Four Nations hockey tourney last winter, pro sports again providing a dramatic proxy war.

Just want to clarify before I say it 1 million times over the next week. How do you correctly pronounce Toronto? From my understand it’s “Ter-on-no”

In a news conference on Parliament Hill just now, the Canadian Cattle Association called for Canada to TERMINATE its continuity agreement with the U.K. because it continues to put up barriers to Canadian beef exports. Just in case anyone thought trade diversification was easy...

THIS IS THE MOST UNDERVALUED COMPANY ON NASDAQ, according to Warren Buffett’s analysis. Buffett’s rule is simple: Buy real companies that earn real money at irrationally cheap prices. That description fits NextNRG Inc ($NXXT) perfectly. 📊 Facts: * Market Cap ≈ $200–250

Our core mission is to build a stronger economy — one that doesn’t rely on a single trade partner. In the next decade, we’ll double our non-U.S. exports. That means hundreds of billions of dollars in new orders for Canadian steel, aluminum, lumber, and other resources.

Slow walk over. Sort of. The beginning of the end of the slow walking, at least? Trump focusing minds?

Tough story to report but I want to know what's happening inside NATO and why, so I dug in.
NATO is restructuring to align more closely with Trump-era priorities, say ex-employees. Former insiders warn key areas like climate and gender security are being sidelined. Report by @terischultz for DW’s Brussels bureau. https://t.co/jCMPuZEDpk

As the former Chief of Staff at DOL, which oversees the Bureau of Labor Statistics, I cannot tell you how outrageous this is. Commissioners are appointed to a fixed term. We had a Trump appointee we worked closely w/. Nobody is faking numbers. Revisions happen all the time.
Trump announces he has directed his team to fire the Commissioner of Labor Statistics. “Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can't be manipulated for political purposes.”

After two days of talks in Stockholm that ended without the announcement of a new truce, I asked @USTradeRep what the biggest concession is China’s made in trade talks so far. “Well, I would say they blocked all of their rare earth magnets, and now we're getting them,” he said.

"#Australia has allowed some imports of American #beef since 2019, following a decade-long pause sparked by an outbreak of... mad cow disease, yet it still restricted red meat which had origininated in Canada or Mexico and then slaughtered in the US."🤔#USMCA #CPTPP
Trump praises Australia’s decision to lift import curbs on US beef amid trade negotiations between the two allies
