.please note Trump’s “beautiful weapon” is actually pointed at Americans. Unlike Donald @MarkJCarney wisely decided to stop revenge taxing Canadians. Common sense prevails at last. Good policy takes clearly time.@PerrinBeatty @Thomas_dAquino

. Problems in sustaining a vital national service have been “handled“ by govts for decades but never solved-unfair to Canadians&CP employees - , as too in many other natl issues : Canada Post is a case study in Canadian dysfunction /via @globeandmail

However postal service and its main union, CUPW, resolve their current impasse, a much bigger problem looms for the Crown corporation and the federal government

. Surely this situation is further evidence that large urbsn ares csnnot be governed effectively by a collection of neighbourhood municipalities. The water treatment plant $3.4 billion @MetroVancouver is surely enough evidence of governance weakness.
VicBuilders: "Failed governance policy of municipal self-determination has produced less housing, higher costs, poor planning and multiple building code standards."

.Well done! Reciprocal tariffs only made emotional sense. No need for the Cdn govt to stand between customers in Canada seeking to import value, a lesson the US will learn in due course.
Canada currently has the best trade deal with the United States. 85% of our exports to the U.S. are tariff-free. To preserve Canada’s unique advantage, we’re matching the U.S. by removing our tariffs on U.S. goods covered by CUSMA.

. Id ‘t it just. The same reason @MarkJCarney is right to remove most reciprocal tariffs.
DHL is suspending commercial package deliveries to USA because of Trump tariffs. It's as if the United States were imposing punitive trade sanctions on itself.
