Premier Wab Kinew and I want to see the Port of Churchill expansion project built — fast. Today in Winnipeg, I announced new funding to help get the project operationalised. 
 
Canada has an abundance of resources, and this port expansion will mean we can ship more to the world.

The maker of Sour Puss liquor is shifting production from Minnesota to Quebec in what one trade expert calls a small but meaningful win for Canada in its ongoing trade dispute with the United States.

Let me go on record as saying I prefer Canada buys the Gripen, rather the F-35's.
Despite Hoekstra's claim about doubling of platform costs, The Gripen will have a substantial less costly platform.
The Gripen is more designed for northern patrol, interception. It has good results. Proven.

NDP! Your party doesn't stand a hope in hell of winning an election.
If you force one, you'll be wiped off the electoral map.
Why don't you man up and support the Liberals right now.
Nudge Carney to beef up some social programs.
Like you did Trudeau.
