Trump to Canada: “It will cost you $61 billion, but zero if you become 51st state”
It's been done many a year ago, In the mid 50's and early 60's At great expense at the time How much did the DEW Line cost to build? The DEW Line was an incredible undertaking of its time. It required more than a half-million tonnes of material, enough gravel to build a road from Vancouver to Halifax, and 25,000 construction workers. It cost $350 million – a large sum for the 1950s Replaced with North Warning System and with satellites The DEW Line, or Distant Early Warning Line, was a chain of radar stations built across Canada's Arctic during the Cold War to detect potential Soviet bomber and ICBM attacks. The DEW Line was a joint project between Canada and the United States, with the US largely funding and managing the project. The line stretched from Alaska to Iceland, with a significant portion located within Canadian territory. -

Court Temporarily Backs Trump on Tariffs Amid Legal Storm Over Presidential Power
Court Temporarily Backs Trump on Tariffs Amid Legal Storm Over Presidential Power President Donald Trump has won a temporary legal reprieve in his effort to maintain sweeping global tariffs, as a U.S. federal appeals court allowed the continuation of his import duties, despite a lower court’s ruling that they were unlawful. The decision came just one day after the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that Trump had exceeded his authority by imposing broad international tariffs. The appeals court’s decision temporarily suspends the lower court’s order and allows the tariffs to remain in effect while the broader legal battle plays out. Trump officials quickly condemned the initial ruling as an overreach by the judiciary. "America cannot function if President Trump, or any other president, for that matter, has their sensitive diplomatic or trade negotiations railroaded by activist judges," said White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt in a press briefing on Thursday. The tariffs, which have caused global economic disruptions since their introduction earlier this year, were challenged by small businesses and several U.S. states. The Trump administration has defended them as crucial tools in its economic and foreign policy strategies. In court filings, the administration argued that the lower court ruling undermined presidential authority and jeopardized progress made in trade negotiations. “The political branches, not courts, make foreign policy and chart economic policy,” the filing stated, even threatening to seek emergency relief from the Supreme Court. In February, President Trump invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose tariffs on imports from China, Mexico, and Canada, citing the fentanyl crisis as justification. He later expanded the measures to include a 10% tariff on goods from most nations, reserving higher tariffs for select trade partners like China and the European Union, which the administration labeled “bad actors.” Critics argue that Trump stretched the IEEPA far beyond its intended use, which traditionally covers sanctions against nations like Iran, not general trade and tax policy—areas typically reserved for Congress. “It’s not normal for the president of the United States to make such an enormous power grab and start the biggest trade war since the Great Depression,” said Ilya Somin, a lawyer who assisted in the case against the administration. He remains “guardedly optimistic” that the court’s ruling will ultimately be upheld, noting that the decision was issued by judges from across the political spectrum, including a Trump appointee. However, trade adviser Peter Navarro signaled the administration's willingness to continue its tariff push regardless of the legal outcome. “You can assume that even if we lose, we will do it another way,” he said, stressing that the trade court’s ruling only addressed the emergency law Trump used and not the idea of tariffs themselves. Other duties on steel, aluminium, and automobiles—imposed under different laws—remain unaffected. While the next hearing in the case is set for June 5, many in the business community remain wary. Kara Dyer, who runs Boston-based Story Time Toys and imports products from China, expressed mixed feelings about the appeals court’s decision. “I was incredibly happy and relieved but I'm also still very cautious,” she said. “It’s just been so chaotic and so impossible to plan as a business. I want this to work its way through our court system so we have a little bit more certainty about what tariffs will be in the future.” Observers say the legal tug-of-war has broader implications for presidential power. “It will be a lot harder for him to raise tariffs in the future,” said Dmitry Grozoubinski, a former trade negotiator at the World Trade Organization. “This was ultimately a negotiation in which President Trump was threatening other countries with a big stick and that stick just got considerably more ephemeral.” While the temporary stay allows the Trump administration to keep the tariffs in place for now, the final outcome could reshape the future balance between executive authority and the role of Congress and courts in trade policy.
