When Will There Be An 'Alternative For Canada'?
Authored by Mark E. Jeftovic via Bombthrower,
On Sunday, Germany's Alternative für Deutschland won Saxony-Anhalt, which shouldn't really surprise anyone, but is being treated by the media like some kind of Black Swan event, blindsiding us all.
The AfD won 43.8% of the vote, more than doubling its result from five years ago and crushing Chancellor Friedrich Merz's CDU, which came in at 17.2%. Apparently, if it wasn't for mail-in voting they would have had a majority.
As it stands, they're within three seats of an outright majority (maybe they can follow the Liberal Party of Canada playbook and induce a few other MPs to defect).
Naturally, practically every headline describing the result contains some variation of the words "far right".
We've been through this before.
A few years ago I wrote "What Does 'Far Right' Even Mean Anymore?" and came up with a working definition:
"Far right" is basically anything th...

Canada's Counter-Tariffs Take Effect As Trump Targets Bombardier And Midterm Battlegrounds
Canada's retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods took effect at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday - raising duties of 15%, 25%, and 50% on hundreds of American products after last month's collapse of bilateral talks. Ottawa says the package matches the United States "dollar for dollar, rate for rate." Finance Canada values the covered U.S. imports at $27.6 billion; some U.S. accounts put the figure nearer $20 billion. Either way, it is a small share of total two-way trade - and a large share of the political risk.

The list is drawn from goods already hit by U.S. Section 338 and Section 232 tariffs. Section 338, a long-dormant provision of the Tariff Act of 1930, had not previously been used by a president to impose duties; Trump invoked it in July to levy 50% on selected Canadian goods after talks failed, and those U.S. duties took effect August 22. Canada's matching rates now appl...
