🇨🇦 Canada’s 2025 Election

Mark Carney has led the Liberal Party to a fourth consecutive term, securing a minority government with 169 seats, just shy of a majority. The election saw a significant shift, with the Liberals achieving their highest popular vote since 1980 at 43.7% . Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre lost his seat, marking a notable change in Canada’s political landscape .

Amid tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump, who suggested Canada become the “51st state,” Carney emphasized Canadian sovereignty . In a symbolic move, King Charles III will open Parliament on May 27, the first time a monarch has done so since 1977, reinforcing Canada’s independence

New Zealand Will Fail to Meet 2050 Net Zero Targets, Data Shows, After Climate Policies Scrapped
New Zealand’s ambitious plan to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 is at serious risk, as recent government decisions undermine climate policies, new data reveals.

In 2019, the Labour government enacted historic climate legislation, committing New Zealand to reducing carbon emissions to net zero by 2050, in line with the Paris climate accords. This legislation mandated future governments to outline specific measures to meet greenhouse gas reduction targets on the path to a carbon-neutral future.

However, the current government’s rollback of key climate policies has cast doubt on New Zealand’s ability to meet these crucial targets.

Ford to Spend $3 Billion to Expand Large Truck Production at a Plant Previously Set for EVs
Ford Motor Company has announced a significant shift in its manufacturing strategy, allocating $3 billion to expand the production of its large Super Duty trucks. This expansion will occur at the Oakville Assembly Complex in Ontario, Canada, which was initially planned to be an all-electric vehicle hub.

Ford plans to invest $2.3 billion at the Oakville plant, with the remaining funds directed towards increasing production capacity at supporting facilities in the U.S. and Canada. This strategic move underscores Ford’s commitment to its high-demand truck segment while adjusting its EV manufacturing roadmap.

Australia’s Unemployment Rate Inches Higher to 4.1% in June, Making a Rate Cut Less Likely
Australia’s jobless rate rose to 4.1% in June, despite the addition of the most new positions since February, as more people entered the job market. The Australian Bureau of Statistics reported on Thursday that the unemployment rate met economists’ expectations but showed an increase from May’s 4%.

The economy added over 50,000 jobs, surpassing the forecast of 20,000 additional positions. Full-time roles increased by 43,300, while part-time positions rose by 6,800. The participation rate, an indicator of those actively seeking employment, edged up by 0.1 percentage points to 66.9%, just below the record 67% rate set in November 2023, according to the ABS. This rise in the unemployment rate makes a rate cut less likely.

Australia Vows to Hold Russia Accountable for MH17 Downing
Australia has reaffirmed its commitment to hold Russia accountable for the downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, which killed nearly 300 people a decade ago. On July 17, 2014, the Boeing 777 was shot down by a Russian-made BUK surface-to-air missile over eastern Ukraine, resulting in the death of all 298 passengers, including 38 Australians.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong, speaking at a memorial service in Canberra, assured bereaved relatives and dignitaries that Australia remains steadfast in its pursuit of justice. “I recommit our collective pursuit of truth, justice and accountability for the outrages perpetrated on the 17th of July, 2014,” she said.

Canada’s Cooling June Inflation Makes Rate Cut Next Week Increasingly Likely
Canada’s slower-than-expected rise in consumer prices in June has increased the likelihood of another rate cut by the Bank of Canada (BoC) next week. The annual inflation rate eased to 2.7% in June, slightly more than anticipated, and the BoC’s core inflation measures also showed a marginal decline, according to data released on Tuesday. This development is expected to provide further relief to homeowners and indebted businesses.

EU’s Incorrect Deforestation Data Risks Blocking Key Imports, Say Australia and Brazil
Australia and Brazil have criticized the European Union for using incorrect deforestation data in its new initiative aimed at banning imports from deforested land. The two countries argue that the inaccurate data could lead to a unilateral ban on imports of products such as palm oil, leather, and coffee from areas that should be exempt. They are urging Brussels to delay the implementation of the new rules, set to come into force on December 31.
