🇨🇦🇺🇸 These U.S. companies moved to Canada. Will there be others?
A few years ago, the story was one-way traffic: U.S. companies pulling investment out of Canada. Now, in the middle of a messy trade war and shifting political winds in Washington, a few American firms are quietly heading north — each for different reasons, but all pointing to the same trend: instability south of the border is starting to reshape business decisions.
The oldest brewing school in the Americas — the Siebel Institute, founded in 1872 — is leaving Chicago after 154 years and relocating to Montreal. The school says U.S. visa restrictions and research cuts have made it far harder for its majority-international student base to study in person. Canada isn’t exactly issuing student visas like it used to either, but the contrast with U.S. policy was enough to push the move. One official put it bluntly: foreign students don’t want to risk being “rounded up in the street by ICE.” The shift to Montreal is an attempt to protect their pipeline of talent from U.S. volatility.
A Minnesota-based liqueur maker, Phillips Distilling — the company behind Sour Puss — has also shifted production to Montreal. With roughly 98% of its sales coming from Canada and several provinces pulling U.S.-made alcohol from shelves during the tariff fight, the company decided it no longer made sense to manufacture in the States. Now its bottles are produced in the city’s east end, closer to its real market.
Meanwhile in Alberta, a major U.S. carbon-capture project quietly abandoned its Arizona plans after the U.S. Energy Department shut down billions in clean-energy incentives earlier this year. The firm behind the technology has rebooted the project in Innisfail, partnering with a Canadian company and pointing directly to “political instability” in Washington as the reason. Ottawa’s regulatory and financing environment for direct air capture — at least for now — is seen as more predictable.
Not all of this is about Trump. Biden’s trillion-dollar Inflation Reduction Act pulled huge investments into the U.S. too, and Trump’s tariffs are just the latest swing in a decade of U.S. economic nationalism. The structural trend — political volatility and rapid policy reversals in Washington — has been building since the 2008 financial crisis.
Will more companies follow? That’s less clear. These moves are still symbolic compared to the scale of firms that have shifted investment out of Canada. But they hint at a broader pattern forming: companies relocating closer to their customer base, or toward jurisdictions with stable energy rules, consistent visa policies, or a calmer political climate. In a world breaking away from deep globalization, proximity and stability suddenly matter again.
And Canada — sitting on one of the world’s richest natural resource endowments, deeply plugged into East Asia’s demand cycle, and still offering a more predictable regulatory environment than the U.S. — may end up pulling in more of these strategic relocations as global trade continues to fracture.

Ottawa’s Own Memo Undercuts Claims Mi’kmaw Lobster Fishing Threatens Stocks
Mi’kmaw lobster fisher Matthew Cope is fighting federal charges for doing exactly what the Supreme Court affirmed 25 years ago: exercising a treaty right to fish for a “moderate livelihood.” He wants his children to inherit that right, not a criminal record. Yet instead of clarity, Mi’kmaw fishers continue to face surveillance, seizures, and a regulatory system built around commercial norms rather than treaty obligations.
Commercial lobbyists have spent years framing rights-based fishing as a threat to lobster stocks — a claim that resurfaces every summer. But a confidential federal memo sent to the minister in June directly contradicts this narrative. The memo acknowledges some Food, Social, Ceremonial (FSC) catch and untagged lobster is being sold, but concludes that this activity is not threatening the species or the commercial fishery.
Ottawa’s science is unequivocal: lobster populations across the Maritimes remain in the healthy zone, and declines in catch-per-unit-effort in certain areas are not linked to Mi’kmaw fishing. Even in LFA 34 — the most valuable lobster zone in Canada — Mi’kmaw rights-based harvests make up a tiny fraction of total landings. Some communities are licensed for as few as five traps per day, compared to 375–400 traps for a single commercial licence.
Despite the data, commercial organizations continue to escalate. They’ve deployed drones, hidden cameras, and even private investigators to track Mi’kmaw harvesters. They insist the issue is conservation, yet insiders from the lobster trade admit the overwhelming majority of under-the-table sales historically involved non-Indigenous commercial fishers, not Mi’kmaw rights holders.
For many Mi’kmaw families, the real problem isn’t conservation — it’s the lack of a legal avenue to report and sell their catch without being treated as criminals. Cope himself says he would file every pound “on the books” if the federal system recognized the treaty framework the courts already upheld. Instead, he’s fencing his property and watching officers fly drones over his home.
At its core, this isn’t a biological issue. It’s a political one. The memo shows that Ottawa knows the stock is healthy, knows Mi’kmaw harvesting isn’t the driver of declines, and knows rights-based fishing represents a sliver of total effort. What remains unresolved is whether federal regulators are willing to share power and co-manage the fishery as the treaties envisioned.
Until that happens, fear will continue to fill the gaps where science and constitutional law should speak clearly. The lobster are healthy. The rights are real. And the path forward depends on whether Canada honours both.

🇨🇦 Federal government boosts scrutiny of businesses claiming to be Indigenous-owned.
The federal government is tightening its oversight of companies claiming Indigenous ownership, following concerns about misrepresentation. However, Minister Gull-Masty hesitates to adopt new eligibility criteria, a move that could reinforce existing disparities. Without robust verification processes, the integrity of Indigenous business representation remains at risk, undermining trust among genuine Indigenous entrepreneurs.
This indecision reflects a broader pattern in Canadian governance where meaningful action is often delayed, leaving vulnerable communities exposed to exploitation. The lack of decisive measures will likely perpetuate the cycle of skepticism surrounding Indigenous claims.

🇨🇦 Nova Scotia finally opens child and youth advocate office.
After five long years of promises, Nova Scotia is set to open its long-awaited child and youth advocate office next year. This office is crucial for addressing the deficiencies within the province's child protection system. However, a cloud of uncertainty hangs over its actual powers and budget, raising questions about its efficacy in protecting vulnerable youth.
The delay in establishing this office highlights systemic issues within provincial governance and the dire need for accountability in child welfare. Without a clearly defined mandate, the office risks becoming another bureaucratic layer instead of a robust advocate for youth rights.
The implications for Nova Scotia's children could be profound, but only if the government commits to a strong, functional framework and sufficient funding for this essential service.
