I knew this was likely considering PM Carney met with battery and industry leaders and he brought Minister Joly to China.
When she goes that means they are looking for manufacturing in Canada.

Global health threats are inextricably linked to geopolitics. The direction the world is taking is now highly unpredictable, but one thing is absolutely certain to me: the only real winners will be pathogens. The US administration is now a force multiplier for infectious disease.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

ICE is NOT a "Training" problem.
It's the fact that the far too many felons, gang members and other socially maladapted people have been employed by ICE...and then defended by the WH each time they commit a crime.
Don't fall for that "training" BS. You don't "train" a rattlesnake...you get bitten.
