Europe must support Canada against Trump

Jornal de Negócios31 August 2026 at 19:56

The article argues that Europe must support Canada against Donald Trump's policy. The central message is a call to the European Union to position itself alongside Canada at a time of tension with the United States.

The former governor of the Bank of Canada, Mark Carney, is the central figure referenced in the text. Carney argued that in a world marked by rivalry between great powers, middle powers face a fundamental choice: compete with each other for the great powers' favor, or unite to create a third way with significant geopolitical weight.

According to the article, Canada has already made its decision, choosing to follow the path of unity among middle powers instead of competing for American influence. This position of Ottawa serves as an example for Europe.

The text calls on the EU to respond positively to this Canadian choice, reinforcing the transatlantic alliance between medium-sized countries as a way to counter the pressure exerted by the United States under Trump's leadership.

Government reserves R$ 44.8 billion for parliamentary amendments in 2027

The Lula government reserved R$ 44.8 billion for parliamentary amendments in the 2027 Annual Budget Bill (PLOA), an increase of R$ 4 billion compared to the proposal for 2026. The amount is expected to be higher after Congressional approval, since in 2026, R$ 40.8 billion was reserved, but the approved amount reached R$ 50 billion. Mandatory amendments are those the government is obligated to pay, while non-mandatory ones depend on available space in the Budget. There are three types of amendments: individual, from state delegations, and from committees, each with its own rules for distribution and application.
