I was asked about the 2026 CUSMA Review and the possibility of the trade deal not being renewed. Here are my comments:

Mornings are my favorite with Maya. She’s wide awake, bright-eyed, and so wonderfully responsive. I’m still in awe of how much she’s improved over the past few months especially just this week alone. I love you so much, my sweet baby girl. ❤️

Classic Liberal action: Create the problem. Ignore the warnings. Take credit for trying to fix it. Don’t let the Liberals get away with this. They empowered the CRTC to impose a 15% tax on your streaming services. Now they want applause for asking the regulator to hit pause.

Maya Gebala 'gets to experience life again' as her family shares hopeful updates. The Tumbler Ridge shooting survivor was able to leave B.C. Children’s Hospital over the weekend for a day out at a botanical garden in Vancouver nationalpost.com/news/canada…

This is pretty funny...

With what? Life jackets?

Venezuela’s oil comeback is accelerating. Exports hit a 7-year high of 1.25 million bpd in May, up 61% from a year ago, as the U.S. eases operating restrictions and international firms return. Output could reach 1.5 million bpd by 2027. #OilMarkets #Venezuela #OOTT oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-G…

IRGC Quds Force commander: "No one can stand against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Everything you have seen from Hezbollah is merely the tip of the iceberg."

"Peaceful" explosions I'm sure...

Canadians are calling for a Health Committee investigation into the $300M PrescribeIT “boondoggle,” according to Conservative MP Dan Mazier. However, Conservatives allege Liberal MPs are obstructing a committee study into the matter.

I, too, have decided not to build nukes in exchange for $300 billion

B.C. eyes new hydro dam project: minister share.google/9L7Rr8Ki634o8UT… Good, and coming so soon after Site C was commissioned. But I also remember how the NDP said Site C wasn't needed and campaigned against it. BC is run by morons...

They IRGc now understands they can close the corridors and blackmail the world for $300B, read this report 👇🏻 “IRGC Commander Ahmad Vahidi says "first, we take the money" in reference to the $300 billion in reconstruction funds and $24 billion in frozen funds Iran is receiving, and then the IRGC takes over the Strait of Bab al-Mandeb after Hormuz, where it plans to "play exactly the same game."” I actually find it plausible. IRGC Quds Force commander Qaani recently spoke openly about a regional security corridor stretching from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea, overseen by what he called the “Axis of Resistance.” What’s stops them from closing the Bab al-Mandeb and holding it ransom? It’s definitely on the minds of the IRGC and the Houthis.

Last Thursday evening some thieves broke into our well site & stole a bunch of wire. ~$25k damage. Insurance deductible is $25k. Not worth it. All oil & gas companies deal with this regularly. It's also a big safety issue with live power lines! Called @RCMPAlberta They haven't even called back. Last time they dropped a receipt from the metal recycler with the FN woman's name on it. Called the metal recycler. "They can't check every load." then hung up. Something needs to be done about this! Metal recyclers shouldn't be allowed to be accessories to crime. @RCMPAlberta should be more than voicemail. @ABDanielleSmith

Everyone will have their take on the deal. Mine is kinda what you'd expect. 1. Trump caved. The early-May naval attempt to break the closure of Hormuz -- Project Freedom -- could have worked. He didn't give it a chance. 2. He may nevertheless have done the right thing from an American perspective. On the larger chessboard, the one where America is curtailing Chinese lines of influence and supply on all fronts, he's gotten everything he needs. Iran's nuclear program is also set back dramatically. And worrying about gas prices come November is an extremely valid concern for an American president. As I argued back in February, the US and Israel weren't fighting the same war. Roughly 80% of each side's war overlapped with the other's. But toward the end, their interests would diverge and America would bow out. And so it was. 3. Israel remains in the region, Hezbollah remains ensconced in Lebanon and committed to murdering us all, Iran remains the same muqawama regime it always was, committed to mass-murder and mass-sacrifice of its own people. The decades-long war between the muqawama ideology and the Jews of Israel continues. 4. Israelis owe the United States a vast and abiding debt of gratitude for what it has done to Iran's missile and nuclear programs. That this finished on America's timetable rather than ours, that it was doing it for its own interests and not ours, these don't diminish the fact that we received from America more than we had a right to ask for. 5. And still, #3 remains true. We fight on. Because that regime is undeterrable, actually wants to destroy us all, and like the Nasserist ideology that once sent army after army at us to destroy us, will require a few more wars and perhaps another decade or two to defeat completely. 6. The new IRGC military dictatorship now in charge in Iran is built to survive catastrophe. But not to govern, reform or build anything of value. Some commentators on the deal have suggested that the most damaging thing you could do to the Iranian regime at this point is send it back to its embittered people to try to govern the peace. I think they might be onto something. It'd be a much safer and happier and more peaceful region if the regime falls from within and a new and better day dawns for the long-suffering people of Iran.

So, compared to pre-war when Strait was open, Iran had or was close to nuclear capability, & Hezbollah operating: -US "invests" $300B into Iran -Sanctions lifted releasing pressure on Iranian economy -Iranian military degraded but not defeated -Gulf countries suffered damage -Iran "promises" not to create nuclear weapons. Iran wins. This is just a pause until the next war with alot of skirmishes until then. Nothing resolved.

Whatever is going on in the world, Thomas Sowell always got there first and summed it up perfectly.

BREAKING: Netanyahu directly rejects the Lebanon clause of the US-Iran agreement announced by Pakistan, telling Trump the IDF will not withdraw from Lebanon and that Israel does not consider itself bound by the clause, per Maariv.
