EXCLUSIVE: The Black Hawk is the most used firefighting helicopter in the world. Except Canada. Transport Canada banned it here in 2024. Then banned US operators from bringing them in in 2025. The most used heavy firefighting helicopter in the world is operated with a near perfect safety record in: - The United States - Australia - Europe - New Zealand - South America - Asia - South Africa But Transport Canada banned it. Twice. The RCMP is exempted for border patrol. It’s the same aircraft type, but different rules Alberta’s next water bombers don’t arrive until 2031 The country that manufactures the world’s best water bombers can’t use the world’s best firefighting helicopters. Because Transport Canada says they are unsafe here, but are remarkably fine everywhere in the world. Every reason cited for the ban is contradicted by the safety record in every other country. Every year we lose more forest. Every year we lose more homes. Every year Transport Canada blocks the fleet that could help. So yes, the federal government is partially to blame. Canadians deserves to know the truth

‼️ BREAKING: The Trump administration is holding hearings this week on 10% tariffs against Canadian goods. Every serious country sent delegations to Washington to make their case. Canada sent nobody. Not a minister. Not an ambassador. Not a trade official. A Canadian citizen paid his own airfare to Washington to defend Canadian jobs. He testified in front of the US Trade Representative because his own government would not. CANADA WAS ELECTED A PRIME MINISTER BECAUSE HE WAS THE ONLY PERSON WHO COULD HANDLE TRUMP. Trump held a hearing on tariffs against Canada. Carney sent a nobody. A private Canadian did the Prime Minister’s job.
