Full Summary

Economist Trevor Tombe's analysis, using IMF data, shows Canada's GDP per capita dipped below Alabama's around 2023-2024, from about US$55,000 in 2022 to near $54,000-$55,000 now. Alabama's rise traces to 1990s incentives that attracted Mercedes, Honda, Hyundai, and others, building a major auto industry producing 1.2 million vehicles yearly, plus Huntsville's rocket and biotech boom, with unemployment at 2.7% versus Canada's 6.5%. Critics highlight Alabama's higher poverty, lower life expectancy of 74 years compared to Canada's 82, and other quality-of-life gaps, urging Canada to tackle immigration dilution, regulations, and productivity lags.

Key Takeaway

Imagine Alabama, once seen as one of America's poorest states, now outpacing Canada in GDP per capita. A Globe and Mail investigation uncovers how targeted strategies turned the tide.

In his Foreign Affairs essay, Stubb divides the world into the West's democracies, the East's authoritarians led by China, and the pivotal Global South swing states like India and Brazil.

Drawing from Finland's NATO entry amid Russia's Ukraine invasion, Stubb urges a 'values-based realism' to rebuild shared norms and prevent wider conflicts.

Key Takeaway

Alexander Stubb sees the post-World War II system cracking under multipolar strains. He warns the West has just five to ten years to adapt and avoid chaos.

The court ruled 6-3 that President Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose broad global tariffs after declaring emergencies on drugs and trade deficits. Businesses such as Learning Resources and V.O.S. Selections argued the tariffs hurt operations, and even Justices Gorsuch and Barrett joined the majority. Trump fired back calling the justices disloyal, then quickly imposed a new 10% tariff under Section 122 of the 1974 Trade Act; no refunds are planned for the $133 billion collected, though markets rose on the news.

Key Takeaway

Small businesses like a toy importer challenged Trump's emergency tariffs and won a stunning Supreme Court victory Friday. Chief Justice Roberts wrote that the law doesn't allow presidents to raise revenue that way—it's Congress's job.
