truepundit--2020-10-14--After NAFTA, A Dam Bad Deal With Canada Remains

How does this sound for a deal : Get another country to pay for dams you build , generate electricity on those dams , and then sell it back to the country that paid for you to generate it .
Then , keep collecting payments from that country nearly two decades after they ’ ve paid for building the dams .
That would be a pretty sweet deal , right ?
Well , that is exactly the deal that Canada has gotten with the United States in the Columbia River Treaty .
Signed in 1961 , the United States agreed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Columbia River Basin ( which is roughly the size of Texas ) that Canada would manage to prevent flooding in the Pacific Northwest ( including in Canada ) .
Further , the United States provides Canada with roughly $ 150 - $ 300 million worth of carbon-free hydro-power per year , depending on electricity prices .
By 2002 , however , the U.S. payments had fully covered the construction cost of the Canadian dams .
Yet the annual payments have persisted for nearly another two decades .
Canada now sells much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. under this treaty to , you guessed it , the U.S .
This of course drives up costs – unnecessarily – for American ratepayers in states such as Washington and Oregon .
If the status quo remains a couple more decades , the U.S. will have paid for the dams twice !
This is not fair , and raises the question , why is this being allowed to happen ?
The problem has long been foreseen and recognized .
The treaty itself has provisions for renegotiation , including a requirement that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ termination or change to the treaty — creating a sense of urgency to act swiftly if there ever was one .
In 2013 , a wide array of Pacific Northwest entities submitted recommendations for a new agreement to the U.S. State Department to be reached by 2015 .
It took the State Department five years to consider the six whole pages of recommendations , only to ask for more time to negotiate a new treaty with Canada .
Today , there is still no new treaty .
In 2024 , Canada ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flood risk in the U.S. expires .
This is a dangerous and unacceptable situation that must be remedied right away .
The State Department can not be allowed to slow walk Americans right into a flood of water and high electricity bills .
Time is of the essence .
Regardless of who is president next year , the Columbia River Treaty must be scrapped and a new agreement with Canada must be reached .
With President Donald Trump , we ’ ve witnessed his ability to renegotiate NAFTA to set better terms for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his willingness to stand up to Joe Biden ’ s friends at the State Department .
I am confident a second Trump administration will take this matter head on for the American people—even for people in states that did not vote for him .
With a Biden administration , start filling sandbags .

How does this sound for a deal: Get another country to pay for dams you build, generate electricity on those dams, and then sell it back to the country that paid for you to generate it. Then, keep collecting payments from that country nearly two decades after they’ve paid for building the dams. That would be a pretty sweet deal, right?
Well, that is exactly the deal that Canada has gotten with the United States in the Columbia River Treaty. Signed in 1961, the United States agreed to pay for the building of dams in the Columbia River Basin (which is roughly the size of Texas) that Canada would manage to prevent flooding in the Pacific Northwest (including in Canada). Further, the United States provides Canada with roughly $150 -$300 million worth of carbon-free hydro-power per year, depending on electricity prices.
By 2002, however, the U.S. payments had fully covered the construction cost of the Canadian dams. Yet the annual payments have persisted for nearly another two decades. Canada now sells much of the electricity it receives from the U.S. under this treaty to, you guessed it, the U.S. This of course drives up costs – unnecessarily – for American ratepayers in states such as Washington and Oregon. If the status quo remains a couple more decades, the U.S. will have paid for the dams twice!
This is not fair, and raises the question, why is this being allowed to happen? The problem has long been foreseen and recognized. The treaty itself has provisions for renegotiation, including a requirement that the U.S. continue payments for 10 years following termination or change to the treaty — creating a sense of urgency to act swiftly if there ever was one.
In 2013, a wide array of Pacific Northwest entities submitted recommendations for a new agreement to the U.S. State Department to be reached by 2015. It took the State Department five years to consider the six whole pages of recommendations, only to ask for more time to negotiate a new treaty with Canada.
Today, there is still no new treaty. In 2024, Canada’s obligation under the existing treaty to mitigate flood risk in the U.S. expires. This is a dangerous and unacceptable situation that must be remedied right away.
The State Department cannot be allowed to slow walk Americans right into a flood of water and high electricity bills. Time is of the essence. Regardless of who is president next year, the Columbia River Treaty must be scrapped and a new agreement with Canada must be reached. With President Donald Trump, we’ve witnessed his ability to renegotiate NAFTA to set better terms for Americans. We’ve also witnessed his willingness to stand up to Joe Biden’s friends at the State Department.
I am confident a second Trump administration will take this matter head on for the American people—even for people in states that did not vote for him. With a Biden administration, start filling sandbags.

Democratic Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse warned Americans to “ look for power in the shadows ” regarding the conservative groups backing Judge Amy Coney Barrett ’ s nomination to the Supreme Court .
The senator spoke Tuesday at Barrett ’ s confirmation hearings on Capitol Hill where he used numerous visual aids to detail his concerns about the Federalist Society , Judicial Crisis Network , and other groups backing the nomination of conservative justices .
Whitehouse compared the committee hearing to a “ puppet theater.
” “ If you only look at what is going on in the puppet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ understand the whole story , you are not going to understand the real dynamic of what is going on here , ” Whitehouse said .
“ You are certainly not going to understand forces outside of this room who are pulling strings and pushing sticks and causing the puppet theater to react.

Whitehouse proceeded to draw on the posters with a marker , circle names , and draw lines between circles as he spoke .
Whitehouse has previously come under fire for his own ties to dark money groups and refused to respond to questions on these ties before a House Judiciary subcommittee in September .
The Wall Street Journal editorial board denounced his silence on his ties to dark money groups in early September .
“ Mr .
Whitehouse ’ s silence about his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goal isn ’ t to clean up politics .
He wants to silence those who disagree with him , ” the WSJ editorial board wrote .
“ If Mr. Whitehouse holds power in the Senate majority next year , do not expect what Joe Biden says will be a new era of comity and fair play .

Elizabeth Warren Lashes Out At Disney For 28,000 Layoffs That Happened As A Result Of Gov’t-Mandated Shutdowns

Senator Elizabeth Warren , once again displaying her exceptional business acumen , has lashed out at Disney for the company ’ s recent layoffs which , ironically , occurred to due government forcing its theme parks to close in jurisdictions like California .
Disney ’ s theme parks employed more than 100,000 people prior to the crisis .

She wrote in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Chief Executive Officer Bob Chapek on Tuesday : “ I would like to know whether Disney ’ s financial decisions have impacted the company ’ s decision to lay off workers .

But hey , how dare a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest of its shareholders ?
We wonder if Warren , who was revealed to own stock in companies like IBM back in 2019 , would urge companies of stock she held to make decisions that were bad for shareholders .
