U.S. economy BOOMS as Canada falls behind
America posts one of its strongest growth quarters since 2023, while Canada’s economy contracts amid manufacturing weakness and higher grocery prices.
The U.S. and Canadian economies are moving in sharply different directions.
New U.S. data shows the American economy grew at a blistering 4.3% in the third quarter, far exceeding expectations. Consumer spending surged and private-sector job growth remained strong, even as government payrolls declined — a combination economists credit for driving the expansion.
Canada, by contrast, is contracting.
Statistics Canada reports the economy shrank 0.3% in October, the largest monthly decline in nearly three years, driven by weakness in manufacturing and rising costs. Grocery prices remain elevated, and Canada’s per-capita economic growth since 2016 now ranks among the worst in the G7.
The widening gap comes as trade tensions with the U.S. remain unresolved. Senator John Kennedy urged Prime Minister Mark Carney to eliminate tariffs on American goods and challenge Washington to do the same — arguing that zero tariffs would immediately end the dispute.
Ottawa has shown no willingness to budge. The Carney government has ruled out changes to supply management, including dairy protections, and signalled it will not repeal Canada’s online-streaming regulations — both key U.S. demands ahead of 2026 trade negotiations.
With the U.S. economy accelerating and Canada sliding toward stagnation, many fear Ottawa is heading into high-stakes trade talks from a position of growing weakness.

Hard to say who the biggest threats are to Canada's economy.
Could be the loud mouth buffoon who is OntArWeOwes Premier and fake Conservative.
Could be BC's idiot NDP but NDP and IDIOT go hand in hand.
But all in all.
In the bubble that is Ottawa too many foolish and ill informed Canadians were deceived by a supposed Liberal who, in reality was an agent of The WEF, the Useless Nations, a Globalist, Environmentalist, money hiding, investment hiding, three passport holding self proclaimed "Proud European" none of which was reported when this fraud ran to be Canada's next PM (this is what happens when all they watch is paid for by Liberals making Pravda look like amateurs).
... And the results ...
Re-read this column.
Sadly... All part of the "NOT IN THIS FOR YOU" crowd that composes Lieberals and fake Conservatives and, of course the Dippers.
I watch with anticipation how MSM turns this one into a full TDS blow out.
