Probably last update for this but it also makes this insanely outrageous. Even the Conservative website is more straightforward then CBC.

The auto plan would also remove the GST from Canadian-made vehicles, end the Liberal government’s electric vehicle subsidies, and ban vehicles that use Chinese or Russian-connected software.

The Canadian Press via CTV:

Poilievre’s plan would also ban vehicles that use Chinese- or Russian-connected software. Additionally, the Conservatives are aiming to create a “harmonized North American cybersecurity and data standard” and ban Chinese vehicles from “proximity to Canadian Forces bases and other sensitive or strategic infrastructure,” a background document outlined.

Globe & Mail and even Post media straight up says he’ll ban Chinese vehicles. I won’t link either since I also consider them to be shit news sources, but CBC is really doing something ugly here.

2:51 video with the quote. Time stamp is approx the 90 second mark.

Also to point out this stuff is killer to people who support CBC. This CBC article really dances around the guy trying to kill one of the major Canadian deals with a American opponent. I’d paste quote but the way they frame what the guy said and the words China\Chinese barely attempts to convey anything meaningful in context.

Canada Conservatives Want Chinese EVs Barred and Their Software Banned - sh.itjust.works

Generally avoid posting idiotic things this guy says, but as most people know as offensive as this guy is he’s been sure not to offend anyone powerful and it seems like he’s finally picked a side. Hopefully this will the straw that break the camel back for the Conservatives. > The Conservative leader called for a ban on Chinese software, matching the US. > “We will protect the North American supply chains by keeping the 75% rule in place, harmonise the North American cybersecurity rules by banning Chinese software, and align with our partners on the tariff against China to counter unfair trade and increase our negotiating leverage,” he stated.

The reason I’m posting this here and overall context:

  • France and Europe has been having a energy crisis for a while now.
  • When Iran effectively closed the straight it substantially impacted Europe and Asia a lot more then America.
  • As such Macron has been saying France might participate in military action in the straight to keep ships flowing
  • This incident gives Macron a certain level of justification to participate.
  • The probable cases of France participating wouldn’t materially change anything beyond a NATO ally sending their soldier to their deaths for Trump’s war.
  • This really starts to muddy the waters as to Canada’s role if Iran starts to directly threatening France.

Tldr: Macron is a moron. He should have withdrawn his soldier from a active war zone.

No one was injured in the first attack, after which Italy said it was temporarily withdrawing its military personnel from the base.

Do want to point out there was a post about how poor of a journalist this guy is and his crap show on Global News. Then subsequently it seems like there has been a giant uptick of Global News posts many which are either just very superficial article or just straight up wire feed repost. https://sh.itjust.works/post/55344080 [https://sh.itjust.works/post/55344080]

Just to provide context that the narrative Trump conveys is fake as usual and extremely hypocritical. America by sheer numbers trades more with China but even by percentage: [https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/c68ed737-7ade-4b88-809d-763a20f7ab2d.png] Source: https://youtu.be/eQKmPACbKQA?t=911 [https://youtu.be/eQKmPACbKQA?t=911] Source Source: https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/exports-by-country [https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/exports-by-country]
