Good morning, it’s Wednesday, October 8th. In today’s news, Cautious optimism in Washington as Canada and US seek to “quickly land deals,” $100 million in grant funding traced to lobbyists with ties to the Ontario Premier, Canada’s Freedom Convoy leaders sentenced to house arrest, Biden blocked a CIA report highlighting Ukrainian concerns over family corruption, and much more.
I’m confused about Ezra Lavant’s statement that the convoy prosecutions were provincial in nature rather than federal as I clearly remember Danielle Smith getting her hand slapped early in her administration because she talked to a prosecutor about Arthur Pawlowski. It was clear she couldn’t in any way, interfere or influence any prosecution so how can Lich, Barber and Coutts be laid at the feet of the provinces and not the federal government?

Not optimistic here, you don't insult a person multiple times and expect a good reaction
Cautious optimism?
