Canada-U.S. Relations
Canada-U.S. Relations Updated February 10, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov 96-397 SUMMARY 96-397 Canada-U.S. Relations February 10, 2021 The United States and Canada typically enjoy close relations. The two countries are bound together by a common 5,525-mile border—“the longest undefended border in the world”—as Peter J. Meyer well as by shared history and values. They have extensive trade and investment ties and long- Specialist in Latin standing mutual security commitments under NATO and North American Aerospace Defense American and Canadian Command (NORAD). Canada and the United States also cooperate closely on intelligence and Affairs law enforcement matters, placing a particular focus on border security and cybersecurity initiatives in recent years. Ian F. Fergusson Specialist in International Although Canada’s foreign and defense policies usually are aligned with those of the United Trade and Finance States, disagreements arise from time to time. Canada’s Liberal Party government, led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, has prioritized multilateral efforts to renew and strengthen the rules- based international order since coming to power in November 2015. It expressed disappointment with former President Donald Trump’s decisions to withdraw from international organizations and accords, and it questioned whether the United States was abandoning its global leadership role. Cooperation on international issues may improve under President Joe Biden, who spoke with Prime Minister Trudeau in his first call to a foreign leader and expressed interest in working with Canada to address climate change and other global challenges. The United States and Canada have a deep economic partnership, with approximately $1.4 billion of goods crossing the border each day in 2020. -

PRESIDENT BIDEN’S ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT CARD SEMESTER ONE C- July 2021 C- “Needs Improvement” January 2022 July 2022 January 2023 July 2023 Biden photo by Gage Skidmore, CC-BY-SA Skidmore, Gage by photo Biden January 2024 FINAL GRADE In July 2020 Joe Biden said: “If I have the honor of being elected president, we’re not just going to tinker around the edges….We’re going to lock in progress that no future president can roll back or undercut to take us backwards again.”1 One month later, when he accepted the nomination of his party, Biden had set forth the most ambitious climate and environmental agenda of any nominee for a major political party. Acknowledging that the Green New Deal provided a “crucial framework,” Biden’s campaign promised to embrace “greater ambition on an epic scale” to meet the scope of the climate crisis and other environmental challenges.2 And during the final presidential debate, Biden vowed that he would push the United States to “transition away from the oil industry.”3 The Biden campaign released two environmental policy platforms: the Plan to Secure Environmental Justice and Equitable Economic Opportunity and the Plan for a Clean Energy Revolution and Environmental Justice. In addition, shortly before Biden accepted the Democratic nomination, the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force strengthened the environmental positions of the Biden campaign, releasing a comprehensive set of policy recommendations to address the climate crisis.4 We identified and reviewed the 25 most important, specific and achievable environmental promises President Biden made during the campaign as set forth in these three key policy documents. -

Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) ) ) )
Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC In the matter of: ) ) Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) MB Docket 13-249 ) ) COMMENTS OF REC NETWORKS One of the primary goals of REC Networks (“REC”)1 is to assure a citizen’s access to the airwaves. Over the years, we have supported various aspects of non-commercial micro- broadcast efforts including Low Power FM (LPFM), proposals for a Low Power AM radio service as well as other creative concepts to use spectrum for one way communications. REC feels that as many organizations as possible should be able to enjoy spreading their message to their local community. It is our desire to see a diverse selection of voices on the dial spanning race, culture, language, sexual orientation and gender identity. This includes a mix of faith-based and secular voices. While REC lacks the technical knowledge to form an opinion on various aspects of AM broadcast engineering such as the “ratchet rule”, daytime and nighttime coverage standards and antenna efficiency, we will comment on various issues which are in the realm of citizen’s access to the airwaves and in the interests of listeners to AM broadcast band stations. REC supports a limited offering of translators to certain AM stations REC feels that there is a segment of “stand-alone” AM broadcast owners. These owners normally fall under the category of minority, women or GLBT/T2. These owners are likely to own a single AM station or a small group of AM stations and are most likely to only own stations with inferior nighttime service, such as Class-D stations.
