Trump prioritizes deportations and climate rollbacks on his first full day in office.
In an attempt to establish his mark on his new administration on issues ranging from energy to criminal pardons and immigration, U.S. President Donald Trump released a slew of executive orders and directives on Monday, January 20, 2025.Trump started his immigration crackdown, removed the US from the Paris Climate Accords, attempted to keep TikTok operating in the US, and reversed hundreds of previous President Joe Biden's initiatives with his initial rounds of executive orders and memoranda. He granted hundreds of people pardons for their involvement in the attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. As Congress gathered to confirm Biden's 2020 victory over Trump, the president granted pardons late Monday to over 1,500 individuals convicted or charged with crimes related to the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol, as he had repeatedly promised during the 2024 campaign.Separately, Trump directed that federal cases targeting Biden administration political opponents—that is, Trump supporters—be discontinued. Although he said on Monday that he would stop using federal law enforcement as a weapon, his actions appeared to be solely intended to benefit his supporters.

Regardless of the president, Canada must deal with a more protectionist United States: former envoy
"No matter who wins the election in November, Canada needs to get ready for a more isolationist and protectionist U.S., according to the country's ambassador to the United States for the majority of Donald Trump's administration. David MacNaughton stated in an interview with Global News, ""What you've got down there is a challenging situation where we need to be able to demonstrate to them that we are a reliable, good friend and good partner."" ""The last time, we spent a lot of time demonstrating to them our importance from an economic standpoint.""Trump defeated Nikki Haley in the Republican New Hampshire primary Tuesday night with 54 per cent of the vote, putting him one step closer to securing the GOP nomination. Trump, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, adds a level of ""unpredictability"" to ties with the United States." No matter who wins in November, MacNaughton emphasized how crucial it is for Canada to sell its economic friendship by offering to supply vital minerals and hydroelectricity, but more importantly, by sharing how it can work with the United States on priorities. "I believe that this time, even more importantly, is going to be to assist them with some of the things that they're most concerned about, which include drugs entering the country, illegal immigration, and possible terrorism," MacNaughton remarked.A Jan. 15 Angus Reid poll indicates that 53% of Canadians believe a Biden win would be better for the country's economy, while only 18% believe a Trump win would be advantageous. In anticipation of the upcoming American administration, Trudeau declared that he had assigned current Ambassador Kirsten Hillman, Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne, and Trade Minister Mary Ng to spearhead a "Team Canada" strategy in their dealings with the United States. According to MacNaughton, Canada frequently brings up a list of demands during these talks, but it frequently pays little attention to our largest trading partner. It resembles spending all of your time talking about yourself while out on a date. Most likely, it will be your one and only."Although you can't always meet everyone's needs, you should consider what they need and see what we can do to meet it."

In the midst of a political dispute, minister says 86% of Indian students avoid Canada.
Ottawa: A senior Canadian official told Reuters that fewer Indian students applied as a result of a diplomatic dispute over the death of a Khalistani terrorist in Canada, and that the number of study permits Canada granted to Indian students fell precipitously late last year after India expelled Canadian diplomats who would process the permits. In an interview, Immigration Minister Marc Miller stated that he thinks it is unlikely that the number of study permits issued to Indians will increase anytime soon. After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claimed in June that there was evidence linking Indian agents to the murder of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia, diplomatic tensions broke out. According to Miller, the tensions will probably continue to affect the numbers in the future.We can no longer process as many applications from India because of our relationship with that country," Miller said. On directives from New Delhi, Canada was compelled to remove 41 diplomats, or two-thirds of its workforce, from India in October. Furthermore, a minister's spokeswoman stated that the disagreement has led Indian students to look into studying abroad. According to official data that have not been previously released, these factors caused an 86% decrease in the number of study permits granted to Indians in the fourth quarter of last year compared to the previous quarter, from 108,940 to 14,910.

Trump calls Trudeau 'governor' and Canada 'a magnificent state' in an attempt to make fun of him.
On Tuesday, President-elect Donald Trump made fun of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau by referring to him as a "governor" and dubbing Canada a "great state," which is just another indication that the incoming president believes this nation should join the US.During his dinner with Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago last month, Trump reportedly made a joke about Canada becoming the 51st state. Trump stated in an interview with NBC News on Sunday that the United States might as well become a state if it continues to accrue large trade deficits with Canada.During his dinner with Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago last month, Trump reportedly made a joke about Canada becoming the 51st state. Trump stated in an interview with NBC News on Sunday that the United States might as well become a state if it continues to accrue large trade deficits with Canada."Eating supper with Great State of Canada Governor Justin Trudeau the other night was enjoyable. I'm excited to visit the governor again soon so we can continue our in-depth discussions on trade and tariffs, which will have absolutely amazing outcomes for everyone. Trump stated in a message on social media.Why Trump is making this annexation joke public is unknown, but it may be because Trudeau implied on Monday that Canada is ready to take action against the United States if Trump imposes a severe 25% tariff on all Canadian imports. "We will, of course, as we did eight years ago, respond to unfair tariffs in a number of ways and we're still looking at the right ways to respond," Trudeau stated, referring to Canada's first-term response to Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs.

Future of lightweight materials Fibre Coat bags will target the space and defense areas with €20 million.
FibreCoat, a materials technology business based in Germany, has raised €20 million in Series B funding. NewSpace Capital, Goose Capital, Otto Krahn New Business, 212 NexT, Nova Saint-Gobain, Convergent Ventures, and TiE made the investment.Along with the investment, the business has partnered strategically with NewSpace Capital. With the financing, the company will be able to address the demand for materials that are resistant to heat, radiation, and electromagnetic interference (EMI), expand its presence in the rapidly expanding commercial space ecosystem, and spur innovation in the industry. FibreCoat was founded in 2020 in Germany by Robert Brüll, Richard Haas, and Alexander Lüking, who have a wealth of materials research and engineering experience. The creators of the company started working on their coated fiber technology at the Institute for Textile Technology at RWTH Aachen University in 2014. FibreCoat's creative approach to materials technology has been greatly influenced by their academic background.The necessity to reconsider the usage of fibers in materials science is where FibreCoat got its start. They combined the greatest qualities of each material by spinning traditional fibers with coatings of metal and plastic. Years of intense research and development, together with a goal to provide materials that were not only strong, conductive, and recyclable, but also lightweight, led to this achievement.
