The election must be held on or before October 20 but could be brought forward any day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trudeau took the Liberals to power in 2015, promising \u201csunny ways\u201d for Canada. He championed progressive issues like combating climate change and addressing historic abuses against Indigenous peoples, but the latter years of his premiership have been marked by rising economic discontent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A viral confrontation with a steelworker, who criticized Trudeau for not addressing the high cost of living, captured the growing discontent among Canadians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re not really doing anything for us, Justin,\u201d the worker remarked, highlighting a sentiment that resonated widely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are watching Petroleum Carloads<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>The four-week rolling average of petroleum carloads carried on the six largest North American railroads fell to 29,256 from 29,609, which was a loss of 353 rail cars week-over-week.<\/strong>&nbsp; <strong>Canadian volumes were down<\/strong><\/span><strong>.<\/strong> CPKC\u2019s shipments were lower by -8.1% week over week, CN\u2019s volumes were lower by -6.7% week-over-week. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">U.S. shipments were lower across the board<\/span>.<\/strong>&nbsp; The UP had the largest percentage decrease and was down by -18.8%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>We are watching the Whitehouse&nbsp; &#8211; Biden is set to block offshore drilling before Trump arrives<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Well, if it\u2019s not handing out last-minute grants for the Green New Deal the Whitehouse is trying to make it difficult to \u201c<em>drill baby drill<\/em>.\u201d<\/span> <\/strong>&nbsp;President Joe Biden is preparing to issue a decree permanently banning new offshore oil and gas development in some U.S. coastal waters during his final weeks in the White House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Biden is set within days to issue the executive order barring the sale of new drilling rights in portions of the country\u2019s outer continental shelf.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The move is certain to complicate President-elect Donald Trump\u2019s ambitions to drive more domestic energy production. Unlike other executive actions that can be easily undone, Biden\u2019s planned declaration is rooted in a 72-year-old law that gives the White House wide discretion to permanently protect U.S. waters from oil and gas leasing without explicitly empowering presidents to revoke the designations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Trump is expected to order a reversal of the protections, but it\u2019s not clear if he will be successful.<\/strong> <\/span>During his first term in office, Trump sought to revoke former President Barack Obama\u2019s order to protect more than 125 million acres (50.6 million hectares) of the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, which was rejected by a federal district court in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supporters of the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, which governs offshore oil and gas development, note that Congress gave presidents wide discretion to permanently protect waters from leasing, but it didn\u2019t explicitly grant them the authority to undo those designations. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Biden has already curtailed new offshore oil and gas development opportunities in the short term<\/span>.<\/strong> His administration created a program for selling offshore leases that allows just three auctions over the next five years, a record low. However, Trump is expected to rewrite that leasing plan using an administrative process that could take at least a year, and Republican lawmakers are considering ways to expand offshore oil lease sales as a way to raise revenue to offset the cost of extending tax cuts.&nbsp; Stay tuned to PFL, we are watching this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>We are watching Economic Indicators<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Purchasing Managers Index (PMI)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The Institute for Supply Management releases two PMI reports \u2013 one covering manufacturing and the other covering services.
