Thank you to Premier Li, for the warm welcome to Beijing.

Our countries align in many areas, such as clean energy, agriculture, and finance. We focused on how Canada and China can work together to build stronger, more sustainable economies for both our nations.

We've proposed major reforms to the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation to make sustainable finance clearer, simpler, and more reliable — giving investors usable information to make informed choices.

@propublica.org provided receipts that Susan Collins campaign conspired with a felon/donor to commit campaign finance crimes; Collins maintains her team did nothing wrong but hasn't spoken to the specifics; and the staffer still works for Collins.

How is this sustainable? #MEpolitics
One week after this was published: Is Amy Abbott continuing to serve as the finance director on Susan Collins 2026 campaign? If so why hasn't she been dismissed? Has anyone asked? #MEpolitics
