It's a 120-kilometre drive between Valemount, B.C., and Jasper, Alta. — but business owners in the B.C. village say the ripple effects of the wildfire that devastated the Alberta town last summer have many of them struggling to stay open.

“The Tories, in office, prepared a trap for Labour … the Conservatives had committed themselves to fiscal plans which implied spending cuts far exceeding those the coalition government had imposed in the name of ‘austerity’. The trap Labour fell into was to commit to the same fiscal targets and to promise that they wouldn’t raise general taxation … to get out of the straitjacket into which they had voluntarily strapped themselves.”

The jet…was one of several 737 MAX jets waiting at #Boeing's Zhoushan completion center for final work & delivery to a Chinese carrier.

#Trump this month raised baseline #tariffs on Chinese imports to 145%. In retaliation, #China has imposed a 125% tariff on #US goods. A Chinese airline taking delivery of a Boeing jet could be crippled by the tariffs, given that a new 737 MAX has a market value of ~$55M….

“One of the biggest problems with the China tariffs is enforcement.

If companies based in China cheat and get caught, they lose a shipment.

If Americans cheat and get caught, they lose a shipment, pay big fines, and can go to prison.

So who do you think is going to cheat more?”

#Boeing jet returns to #US from #China, a victim of #Trump's #tariff war

A Boeing jet intended for use by a Chinese airline landed back at the planemaker's US production hub on Sunday, a victim of the tit-for-tat bilateral #tariffs launched by Trump in his global #trade offensive.

The 737 MAX, which was meant for China's Xiamen Airlines, landed at Seattle's Boeing Field…It was painted w/Xiamen livery.

Nobody's above being wrong, and if the ceasefire doesn't lead to the collapse of the #Russian #WarMachine #economy, then so be it - which is probably prevented by proper planning anyway.

I'm at least happy that #Ukrainians can get some respite and try to enjoy some days when the bombs aren't flying. But there are those who will never let their guard down.
