Listening to Mark Carney speak in clear and concise sentences with thoughtfulness and structure is my favorite of that announcement. He doesn't just sound like the adult in the room but an actual leader responding to a crisis who has a plan and or knows how to make a plan. Great reporting as always Rachel.

I went and saw him last night in Winnipeg, my first time ever to a political speech. I'm 60. Better yet, my Mom was there also, her first time, she is older than me, I'll leave it at that.

Of almost any political leader, Mark Carney sounds and seems the most prepared. Go look at the plans for his housing initiative, , not just random crap, a real plan. How to do it, and house plans as well. The full package is on the page.

I care. I subscribed, just to show it matters, to Canada. Do not stop, or quit, or back down. As strong as the hate against you, the respect for you, and what you do, will always be stronger !

Unfortunate about CTV. But, you are strong and a tenacious journalist. Keep at this. We the people need to know the facts and we trust your insight, honesty and expertise in digging into the shadows. Good work Rachel! Stay well.

I just subscribed, weather CTV sees reason or not, I want you to be free to do what you are really good at.Free speech is at a crossroads, you are on the right side of the road !

Honestly, one of my thoughts was that maybe Bell Media had grown as an institution after the LaFlamme debacle when I learned they retained you for a fact checking segment. Now I think Bell Media's integrity is just another reflection of the "late stage capitalism" trope.

I just subscribed! Do not let the bullies get you down! CTV caving was so cowardly and spineless that I hope they are embarrassed into changing their minds. You go girl!

I sent an email to CTV expressing my disappointment that they aren't willing to fight for journalists. We need quality journalism now more than ever. You are great, and I really appreciate what you do.

FYI looks like the tariff calculations are simply: (USA tariff % on X country)=(1 - (USA exports to X country ÷ USA imports from X country))

Laughable economic policy
