its just weird how theyre never gaming out scenarios for curing cancer or anything like that, i couldve sworn they said that was one of their big goals
“.. AI companies are privately gaming out scenarios for a public and political revolt after a catastrophic AI event .. most likely a cyberattack, that shuts down access to financial services, internet connectivity, or even power and water.” @axios.com www.axios.com/2026/10/09/a...
Today I have the honour of presiding over a 🇨🇦 Citizenship Ceremony in Toronto. I’m so proud of who we are. My family immigrated here from Italy in the 1950s and 1960s to build a better life. It is very humbling to be a small part of these families 🇨🇦 moment. Canada Forever.
Thank you 🙏
Hanwha Group, which lost this year's contest to build the navy's new fleet of submarines, is considering a partnership to make military vehicles in Canada.
🙏 hello
Partisan politics isn’t real life. We all expect thoughtful honesty from those who lead. People don’t rage-bait in person. I have lots of friends across the spectrum. It’s normal. I respect humble hard-work. Most of us do. The only thing that matters is how we treat each other.

Trump Will Sink Detroit:
My Op-Ed in today’s Automotive News Canada.
Thank you. 🙏
At the opening reception of the Canada Investment Summit the PM spoke of an aspirational 🇨🇦. You could hear a pin drop. It wasn’t a pep rally, it was a challenge. Be ambitious, for each other. He walked off stage & shook my hand. I simply said “I’m proud of you”. 🇨🇦 forever.
I mean maybe but Flavio Volpe saying "nuh-uh" is the kind of voice that the feds listen to. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is me explaining Trump's Bombardier own-goal in today's @TorontoStar.com:
"The comparison to Nero is severe, but increasingly difficult to avoid: a narcissistic ruler so consumed with his own performance that he cannot see what is burning around him."
Great to talk to @CNN.com about how Trump’s Bombardier move is the same one he’s putting on Ford and Detroit.
He’s trying to hurt 🇨🇦 but he’s hitting 🇺🇸 just as hard.
Great to talk to 🇺🇸s @meidastouch.com’s Scott MacFarlane on 🇨🇦s reaction to Trump’s nonsensical trade threats.
“Right now, I think the White House & its surrogates deeply underestimated the Canadian response, and the backing that the PM has to make tough decisions”.
We’ve been over this before: Every Global 7500 that Bombardier builds in 🇨🇦 has 2 GE engines built in Indiana, 🇺🇸. Every Challenger that Bombardier builds in 🇨🇦 has 2 Honeywell engines built in Arizona. 🇺🇸. Bombardier employs 3,000+ 🇺🇸s & has 2,800 🇺🇸 suppliers. Not so smart.
You too Kevin.
For those keeping score, if 🇨🇦 had 🇺🇸 dollar parity in 2025: - 🇺🇸s would have paid $152B MORE for the 🇨🇦 goods they bought - 🇨🇦s would have paid $133B LESS for the 🇺🇸 goods they bought This idea would have COST 🇺🇸s $285B on swing in balance for the year. Who will tell him?
For those keeping score, the man belittling 🇨🇦 for saying “no thanks” is a Trump-appointed Treasury Secretary, struggling to contain bond yields, on a network that agreed to pay a $787.5M settlement for lying about 2020 election fraud, speaking to the president’s daughter in law.
