Sweeping tariffs are reshaping global trade. In these uncertain times, what role should our federal government play to help Canada thrive? CBC's Windsor Morning election panel weighed on Wednesday with local voices who are not candidates from the three main parties. For the Al Teshuba represents the Conservatives. For the Liberals it's Alicia Higgison. And it's Taras Natyshak for the NDP.

Monday letters Photo by Illustration / Toronto Sun CARNEY IS THE SAME OLD LIB While I was deeply disappointed that Pierre Poilievre wasn't successful in the past election, I had hope that, although the team was the same, Mark Carney would turn out to be someone different than his predecessor. Turns out he is the same. Watching question period over the past week the Liberals continue using the same talking points and refuse to answer a question, Carney included. I guess honesty and transparency are not Liberal attributes. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Create Account Jane Gilbert Ajax (Evasion is the language the Liberals understand. It's too bad we have to endure for another term) AFFORDABLE AT WHAT COST? Could someone please explain the term 'affordable housing.' I keep hearing this term from every politician wanting to get elected. Is there a price on these houses? Are they mortgage free? How about affordable housing for seniors? Mayor Olivia Chow has raised property taxes more than 20% over her short term of office. My fixed income, based on the amount I was entitled to some 10 years ago, has no inflation clause to keep up with present-day costs. I guess Chow's idea of creating new housing is to squeeze pensioners out of their homes when they cannot afford to pay the taxes! I have never heard this socialist elite mayor ever say the words 'cut back' on anything. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Tony Di Stasi Etobicoke (None of them ever define what is affordable housing, it's just a term that sounds good but is meaningless in reality) JUST OPEN IT I read that the Eglinton Crosstown should be up and running by September ('Eglinton Crosstown rolling soon: Ford,' Jane Stevenson, June 4). Please inform all the politicians to not waste time and money on a grand opening ceremony. There's nothing to celebrate. Just open it. How anything that's long overdue and way overbudget can be celebrated for finally being in service is beyond me. Ha, that could be Metrolinx mantra: 'If it's not overdue and overbudget, it's not Metrolinx.' Todd Keller (That has a sad and expensive ring to it) World Canada Sports Crime Editorials

Chris Selley: Earth to Liberals — First Nations are not an anti-development monolith
Article content Sean Fraser — the federal Liberals' supposed master communicator who did a bad job as immigration minister, and then a bad job as housing minister, and then said he wasn't running again to spend time with his family, and then opportunistically changed his mind and was rewarded with the justice and attorney general portfolio — laid his first dog's egg of the Mark Carney era this week. Article content Article content Fraser said Indigenous groups don't have a 'complete veto' over natural-resource projects or any other government decisions — but that wasn't the turd in question, because it was absolutely true. Article content Article content The turd came later, apparently after getting his ears boxed by Assembly of First Nations National Chief Cindy Woodhouse: Fraser disavowed his entirely truthful statement. Article content 'I think even accepting the premise of the question that was put to me (about a 'veto') really made people feel like there may be an attempt by the government to work unilaterally, not in partnership (with First Nations),' Fraser told reporters in a public apology. Article content 'Despite innocent intentions, I think my comments actually caused hurt and potentially eroded a very precarious trust that has been built up over many years to respect the rights of Indigenous people in this country,' he said. Article content Article content Coming up on 500 years since Jacques Cartier first set foot here and named it Canada, and 150-plus years after the Crown concluded the first treaties with First Nations, and with President Donald Trump suddenly bringing our crippling dependence on the United States into very sharp focus, if we can't even speak the plain truth to each other in plain language, we might be in even bigger trouble than we realized. Article content Article content But I think we can speak the plain truth to each other in plain language, so long as we rightly marginalize fringe and unreasonable voices. While apologizing for speaking the truth, Fraser also accurately pointed to 'a frankly dangerous trope that paints a false picture of Indigenous peoples as being anti-development.' Article content The 2021 Census recorded 1.8 million Indigenous Canadians — five per cent of the Canadian population, give or take. No one would ascribe monolithic opinions like 'supports/doesn't support resource development' to any other ethnic five per cent of the Canadian population. Yet most Canadian media reliably frame these issues as 'First Nations versus the colonialist menace.'
