Don't you dare you fucking idiot, I voted for you and I don't want us getting involved at all.

State-owned German energy group Uniper is holding talks with Canada to expand its ‌liquefied natural gas purchases, three people familiar with the matter said, as part of Berlin's plans to strike a broad economic partnership and cut reliance on U.S. supplies.

The discussions, which the sources said are taking place on ​a corporate and political level, are happening as Germany pitches for a Canadian submarine tender that ​is likely to involve deals in other areas, including rare earths, batteries and ⁠energy.

...

Canada has been ​seeking alternative offtakers to reduce its gas export dependency on the United ​States, including Japan, India ⁠and Malaysia.

Germany's economy ministry said there was an expectation that any submarine tender award would generate added value in the client's country as part of a so-called offset agreement, adding it was supporting such efforts.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) detected and tracked two Russian TU-142 military aircraft operating in the Alaskan and Canadian Air Defense Identification Zones (ADIZ) on March 4, 2026.

NORAD launched two U.S. Air Force F-35 fighter aircraft, two F-22 fighter aircraft, four KC-135 tankers, one E-3 AWACS, two Canadian CF-18 fighter aircraft, and one CC-150 tanker to positively identify, monitor, and intercept the Russian aircraft in the American and Canadian Air Defense Identification Zones.

The Russian aircraft remained in international airspace and did not enter American or Canadian sovereign airspace. This Russian activity in the Alaskan and Canadian ADIZ occurs regularly and is not seen as a threat.

...

An ADIZ begins where sovereign airspace ends and is a defined stretch of international airspace that requires the ready identification of all aircraft in the interest of national security.

Australia and Canada on Thursday signed a series of new agreements on critical ​minerals, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said, including Australia ‌joining the G7 minerals alliance.

Western nations have been attempting to diversify their supply chains away from China, which still controls the majority of production and ​processing of critical minerals, essential for semiconductors and defence applications.

...

The two countries [Canada and Australia] produce around a third of global ​lithium and uranium, as well as over 40% of global iron ​ore.

Canada believes that the best way to address the issue of concentrated supply ‌of ⁠critical minerals is through a production alliance or a buyers' club rather than just a price floor, Energy and Mining Minister Tim Hodgson [said].

...

As well as critical minerals, Australia and Canada are also expected to deepen cooperation in areas including defence ⁠and ​maritime security, trade and artificial intelligence, ​Carney's office said ahead of the visit.
