Well..
As trade negotiations continue feverishly, with yet another (much longer) meeting between Minister LeBlanc/trade representative Charette and USTR Greer...
And speculation about the terms of the deal circulates even more feverishly
Seemingly, out of nowhere, two big moments.
First, Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew appears to have wrestled the Captain Canada cape from Premier Ford (who has been, thankfully, but abnormally, quiet on this so far) as he goes full bad cop
Second... You remember when we said that Pierre Poilièvre should watch his back with Jivani... The first undeniably openly plunged knife between the shoulder blades just took place... and as much as we enjoy bad things, politically, happening to Poilièvre, this one is no laughing matter, because foreign interference is at play as it seems a foreign movement is trying to seize control of one of our major federal political parties.
Things are getting downright Shakespearean
