The Liberal government's proposed border bill would empower police and the country's spy agency to seek information from a wide range of service providers — including medical professionals, banks and car rental companies — without a warrant, government officials spelled out Thursday. The Strong Borders Act, also known as Bill C-2, was introduced earlier this month and has since received a wave of backlash from civil liberties groups, academics and some opposition MPs who argue it creates new surveillance powers infringing on personal privacy and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Ford Canada has issued a national recall notice on certain F-150 Lightning electric trucks over steering wheel control concerns. According to the notice published by Transport Canada and last updated Thursday, “the nuts for the ball joints that connect the front upper control arms to the steering knuckles may not have been properly tightened. As a result, the upper control arms could separate from the knuckles. If this happens, there could be a loss of steering control,” the recall reads.

When we say that President Trump is re-ordering the entire world, we are not exaggerating.

President Donald J. Trump Secures Historic $1.2 Trillion Economic Commitment in Qatar

THE WHITE HOUSE

MAKING AMERICAN MANUFACTURING AND INNOVATION GREAT AGAIN: Thursday in Qatar, President Donald J. Trump signed an agreement with Qatar to generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion. President Trump also announced economic deals totaling more than $243.5 billion between the United States and Qatar, including an historic sale of Boeing aircraft and GE Aerospace engines to Qatar Airways.

• The landmark deals celebrated today will drive innovation and prosperity for generations, bolster American manufacturing and technological leadership, and put America on the path to a new Golden Age.

• Since President Trump took office, his commitment to American manufacturing and innovation has attracted trillions of dollars in investments and global commercial deals. Allies like Qatar are partnering in the United States’ success.

THE ART OF THE DEAL: President Trump is securing billions in investments to revitalize American manufacturing, delivering on his promise to bring back “Made in America” and usher in a new Golden Age of prosperity.

• Today’s announcement builds on yesterday’s $600 billion investment commitment secured in Saudi Arabia.

• It also follows the announcement of an historic trade agreement with the United Kingdom and a joint agreement with China to reduce reciprocal tariffs.

• By securing these investments, President Trump is spurring a manufacturing renaissance, driving economic growth, and creating high-paying jobs across the nation.

• Prior to this historic deal, President Trump had already attracted trillions in U.S.-based investments, laying the foundation for an era of unprecedented American prosperity.

• President Trump is building on his record of success with Qatar, exemplified by his leadership in the 2019 GE Aerospace GEnx engine sale to power Qatar Airways’ then-newly acquired Boeing 787-9 aircraft—a monumental purchase in the history of both companies.

• As the dealmaker in chief, President Trump’s latest achievement in Qatar is another win for America.
