Ontario premier wants Republicans to lose House and Senate over Trump’s trade war
Ontario Premier Doug Ford urged US voters to hold President Donald Trump accountable for the ongoing trade war with Canada
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said on Thursday that he hopes Republicans in the U.S. lose both the House and Senate in the upcoming midterm elections, suggesting that voters should punish President Donald Trump for his moves to escalate the ongoing trade war with Canada.
“Hopefully, he’s going to lose the Senate. He’s going to lose Congress. I hope so, and hold him accountable,” Ford said.
“But we’ll see how that goes. We aren’t going to interfere in the U.S. election,” he continued.
Ford has become one of Trump’s most outspoken critics in Canada, accusing the president of attempting to move Ontario’s businesses and jobs across the border to the U.S.
How to Get Dual Citizenship in the United States and Canada
Dual U.S.-Canadian citizenship is legal and possible, through the means described here.
There are a number of reasons why people might seek dual citizenship between the United States and some other country. For example, dual citizens need not worry about being barred from U.S. entry after spending lengthy periods of time in the original home country, whereas U.S. lawful permanent residents who stay outside of the United States for too long could be charged with “abandoning” U.S. residency. And in the United States, only citizens are eligible to vote, which motivates some permanent residents to take the next step and apply, even if they’d like to keep their original citizenship.
This article will examine the process by which one may obtain dual citizenship in the United States and Canada, as well as some issues that could arise by virtue of such dual citizenship
Gavin Newsom’s high-speed rail humiliation deepens — as aide admits blunder and $126B line dubbed ‘Stonehenge’
Gavin Newsom’s transport secretary has admitted criticism of California’s high-speed rail is justified – as estimates of the project show it will be a struggle to be completed.
Officials now say it will cost an eye-watering $126 billion to finish the line from Los Angeles to San Francisco – which is more money than Amtrak has ever received from the federal government since it was established in 1971, a damning 60 Minutes report revealed.
That’s and a huge uptick when compared to the $33 billion voters were told the rail would cost when it was announced way back in 2008.
Nearly two decades later, the idea of a sleek, sub-three-hour ride has instead morphed into a delayed, downsized, and wildly expensive project that’s earliest projected opening is 2033.
