Long line for early voting at my neighbourhood polling station in Ottawa this morning.

Amazing reporting that fills in a lot blanks. https://t.co/iyoKP102Wi via @NYTimes

I enjoyed chatting with Frérédic Mérand and Jennifer Welsh about how Canada should rethink its foreign policy (on their "Tour de Table" podcast). https://t.co/BDLuhN2zvx

✅ Harvard to Trump: “No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” (Delete the word “private” and it’s perfect) https://t.co/QvAXpzScGz

Sharp decline in number of Europeans travelling to the US. Charts from @FT https://t.co/vYkVWMNg4e

You’re 100% right, but there’s no persuading this Administration that allies and friends are force multipliers for the US. Donald Trump simply doesn’t think in those terms.

The Trump Administration would have a far stronger hand against China if it had included allies Japan, South Korea, the EU and others on its side of the table instead of imposing sky high tariffs on them. A major miscalculation.

RT @WilliamJHague: President’s Trump’s tariffs show that we need to take what he says both seriously and literally.    Many tariffs are her…

Is it "escalating" to match US import tariffs? I don't think so. Canada to impose tariffs of up to 25% on vehicles imported from U.S. Wednesday, escalating trade war https://t.co/uNZONynb3X

Wall Street Journal editorial board: “The impact of Mr. Trump’s tariffs will ripple through the economy… Even the purported beneficiaries of tariffs inevitably become victims as an ebbing tide maroons all ships.” https://t.co/bHBaSFyEVc

Statement by Walmart, Target, Starbucks and Best Buy: "Americans elected President Trump to lower inflation and grow the economy. Instead, these broad-based tariffs threaten family pocketbooks and risk destabilizing confidence in the economy" https://t.co/GPoOZpVukb

Encouraging. Will this blossom into something even bigger? Will other Americans remain passive as their president continues to attack judges, lawyers, universities, immigrants, US national security institutions, public agencies, democracy, and America's closest allies?
