🚨 BREAKING: Ontario Premier Doug Ford just canceled Elon Musk’s Starlink contract and banned all U.S. companies from government contracts in response to Trump’s economic war with Canada.
“It’s done, it’s gone,” Ford said. “We won’t award contracts to people who enable and encourage economic attacks on our province and our country.”
And just to be clear: “They only have President Trump to blame.”
So Trump starts a trade war, and now American businesses are getting locked out of Canada. This isn’t “tough negotiating”—this is our closest ally shutting the door on us while Trump pretends he’s “winning.”
MAGA wanted an economic war? Well, they just got one. And it’s American companies and workers who are about to feel the pain.

BREAKING: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau just dropped a bomb on Trump. He speaks directly to the American people.
He explains clearly the repercussions of Trump's Trade War on Canada, and exactly how it's going to cause tremendous pain to Americans.
He is clear that Canada loves America and the American people and they want nothing to do with this. But it's Trump's doing, and his actions will cause immense damage to America.

Invasive pests are one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss.
Preventing the introduction & spread of plant pests helps safeguard local flora, economies & livelihoods.
Safe trade of plants & plant products, including those sold & bought online, is key!

Contrairement aux OGM traditionnels, l'édition génomique n'ajoute pas de gène étranger, mais modifie l'ADN existant grâce au ciseau CRISPR, par exemple :
- une pomme qui ne brunit pas
- un blé riche en fibres
- une vache sans cornes
- une poule résistante à la grippe aviaire
Nouveaux OGM : faites confiance à la transparence de l’industrie, dit Ottawa ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle… #polcan #cndpoli

A disappointing decision from AAFC to allow the release of gene edited seeds without mandatory disclosure, as described in updated seed guidance. Full transparency needed to ensure organic integrity and choice for organic businesses and consumers. canada-organic.ca/en/news/ca…
COTA is disappointed in reckless decision to allow the release of gene edited seeds without mandatory disclosure. Full transparency is needed to ensure choice for businesses and consumers, whether organic or not! Read our press release canada-organic.ca/en/news/ca…
