Crazy Crazy Trump | America vs Europe | India - UAE Pact | EU Trade Deal | Abhijit Iyer Mitra

Nothing short of an absolute brawl at Davos. President Trump storms the globalist stronghold with a nationalist message that leaves the UN, NATO, and Europe reeling. From Greenland to Ukraine, China to Russia, this speech rips the mask off the so-called “international order.” Seats left empty. Deals ripped up. And a world order on the brink of collapse. This wasn't diplomacy — it was a warning shot.

As part of Canada's new trade deal with China, 49,000 Chinese-manufactured electric vehicles will be allowed to be sold in the Canadian market this year. It's a big change from our previous 100 per cent tariff on Chinese-made cars. Auto leaders and Ontario Premier Doug Ford have criticized the deal, saying it puts the country's auto sector at risk when it's already facing pressure from the U.S. and Donald Trump's tariffs.Dimitry Anastakis is a professor at the University of Toronto in the Department of History and the Rotman School of Management, and his research focuses on the development of the Canadian auto industry. He analyzes what this deal means for jobs in the auto sector, how it could affect Canadians looking to buy EVs and what it could mean for renegotiating the USMCA.Questions? Comments? Ideas?

In this week's episode of China Insider, Miles Yu breaks down China's arctic strategy and regional ambition despite its geographic inconsistency as a non-arctic state, and how this relates to US security interests in Greenland. Second, Miles covers the recent trade agreement between the US and Taiwan following months of negotiations, the terms involved, and the significance of this deal for the semiconductor and AI sectors. Finally, Miles reviews Prime Minister Mark Carney's state visit to Beijing last week and the various outcomes including the preliminary trade deal and economic cooperation framework. China Insider is a weekly podcast project from Hudson Institute's China Center, hosted by China Center Director and Senior Fellow, Dr. Miles Yu, who provides weekly news that mainstream American outlets often miss, as well as in-depth commentary and analysis on the China challenge and the free world's future.

Fishing is at the heart of our east coast provinces — but Atlantic Canadians have been struggling for months amidst a global trade war and high tariffs on Canadian seafood from China. Now that China has dropped some of those heavy hitting tariffs on Canadian seafood, Atlantic Canadians are hopeful this will relieve some of that pressure — but many say more needs to be done to diversify our trading partners to create a more resilient economy for future generations of fishers.

After 25 years of negotiations, the European Union has signed the Mercosur trade deal. Farmers across Europe have been out on the streets protesting against it and farming unions in the UK warn that it could threaten the future of family farms. The free trade deal between the EU and Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay gives European businesses access to a market of more than 250 million people and is seen as a way of offsetting business lost because of US tariffs. However it will also open the door to tariff-free imports of food, particularly beef, which European farmers argue is not produced to the same standards. The deal was not approved by all EU countries, France and Ireland were among those voting against, and it will have to be ratified by the European Parliament. All week we're focusing on what farm animals are eating this winter, from grains to soy and silage: it is a mixture of forage, things grown on the farm like hay or silage; and feed that's bought in from the UK or abroad. A combination of geopolitical events, a challenging UK harvest, and an exceptionally dry summer in some areas has put pressure on the supplies of feed. The Agricultural Industries Confederation (AIC) says the UK needs a national protein strategy to safeguard feed security because that impacts food securityPresenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

This is an excerpt from my podcast This Week in Geopolitics. I record new episodes every Monday so give me a follow if you would like to see more!

The January 19 episode of the AgNet News Hour kicked off with plenty of energy as hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill mixed farm talk, policy, and global trade into a show that felt like a preview of what 2026 could bring for California agriculture. Early in the episode, Papagni and McGill reacted to Governor Gavin Newsom's newly announced $348.9 billion California budget, noting it's grown dramatically since he took office. The hosts raised concerns about what that kind of spending means for small businesses and agriculture in the most heavily regulated state in the country. Papagni pointed out that the budget has increased by more than 70% and warned that California “has no idea how to spend money” while farmers and rural communities keep feeling squeezed. From state politics, the show shifted into soil health and crop efficiency with Russell Taylor of Live Earth, a company mining humate deposits in Utah and turning them into soil amendments designed to help farmers make better use of fertilizer and water. Taylor explained humates as an ancient plant deposit—essentially “really old compost”—that can improve soil structure, nutrient retention, and water holding capacity, especially in tough California conditions like high salt and low organic matter. Taylor also noted that California's evolving regulations around soil amendments and biostimulant labeling could actually be favorable for growers and manufacturers in 2026. He stressed that products like humic and fulvic acids aren't “fancy chemicals,” but natural tools that help form soil aggregates—reducing compaction, improving infiltration, and keeping fertilizer in the root zone longer. For farmers trying to stretch every dollar, Taylor said the goal isn't necessarily “use less fertilizer,” but to get more yield out of the same inputs through better efficiency. One of the most memorable parts of the interview was Taylor's backstory. He shared how Live Earth began as a family operation after his father left coal mining following a tragic mine fire. What started with shovels, bathroom scales, and hand-sewn bags has grown into a product now widely recognized across the Central Valley. As Papagni put it, “That could be a movie.” Later in the show, listeners got a major international update from Cowboy Dale's interview with USDA Undersecretary Luke Lindberg, who had just returned from a trade mission in Malaysia. Lindberg explained that the agreement is designed to reduce barriers by having Malaysia formally recognize the U.S. food system as safe—something he said could unlock broad new opportunities for American agriculture, including California tree nuts, apples, wine, and more. Lindberg also highlighted efforts to improve access for halal-certified U.S. beef and dairy, noting strong demand in Malaysia and a big jump in exports like cheese. He emphasized that the administration is focused on shrinking the trade deficit and creating more reciprocal agreements, saying the U.S. is forecasted to improve its trade deficit by roughly $13 billion compared to last year. The bottom line from this episode: California farmers are dealing with major pressures at home, but new tools in the soil and new markets overseas could provide real momentum in 2026—if the state can stop getting in its own way.

Mercosur has achieved a historic trade deal with the European Union, potentially offsetting U.S.economic pressure and deepening ties with China.
