Best to remember that it wouldn't really be a house - it would be a high-security government facility that the PM happens to live in.

These are the projects that have been officially acknowledged so far, per the CBC:

The Sisson Mine, for critical minerals, in New Brunswick.

The Crawford Nickel project in Ontario.

The Ksi Lisims liquefied natural gas project in British Columbia.

An Iqaluit hydro project.

The Nouveau Monde Graphite Phase 2 project in Quebec.

The Northwest Critical Conservation Corridor in northwest B.C. and Yukon., which could include critical minerals and clean power transmission developments in the area.

The North Coast Transmission Line in northwest B.C.

Certainly all industrial infrastructure, but not necessarily for fossil fuels.

"Zed" now and forever.

His framing isn't quite what the headline may imply - he's just saying the US should probably stop waging trade wars.

To be clear, this is about making proactive concessions before the actual negotiations begin, not a cash payment (which would not have surprised me, and I expected based on the headline).

As much as I hope that the series goes beyond "propaganda," I agree on pretty much all counts.

And some seem to think that we should sever all ties to the US, which is not something he campaigned on, and is also not possible.

Agreed - and TBH, considering the COVID factor in Trudeau's downfall, I wouldn't be surprised if trying this sort of video series got some pushback internally.

Than directly addressing citizens about what his government is doing? I'd argue that politicians should be spending much more time doing things like that.

If (and it's a big "if") he keeps a regular cadence with these, and if (and it's an even bigger "if") he actually addresses tough topics and doesn't make it a one-sided PR fest...this series could show promise?

But we need a lot of time and much deeper ties before we’d jump into eu membership.

Yeah, it's very easy to be "open" to the idea. I'm interested myself, but I know next to nothing about what the effects of that sort of integration would be.

Hell, LaGuardia has ASDE-X installed. The fire truck in question did not have a transponder, rending a significant portion of the system pretty useless in this case.

It's unclear whether any of the ground vehicles at LaGuardia are equipped with the transponders, or at least it was unclear the last I heard.
