When questioned by reporters about the Conservative Party’s decline in polls—falling behind the Liberals and Mark Carney in most surveys—Poilievre stated that it is up to Canadians to decide. He urged voters to choose

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has announced a significant policy proposal regarding Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs). Under a Conservative government, Poilievre plans to allow Canadians to contribute an additional $5,000 per year beyond the current TFSA limit, provided the additional funds are invested exclusively in Canadian companies. The current TFSA contribution limit is $7,000, adjusted annually to account for inflation. Canadians can hold a variety of assets in their TFSAs, including cash, guaranteed investment certificates (GICs), stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and exchange-trade

Trump threatens EU and Canada with more tariffs if they work together to harm U.S.

U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening large tariffs on the European Union and Canada if they work together to do economic harm to the U.S. In a post on social media, Trump says the tariffs would be "far larger than currently planned. " The comments follow Trump's move to impose 25 per cent tariffs on all automobile imports to the U.S. starting next week. A fact sheet provided by the White House says automobiles imported under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement will only be tariffed on the value of content not made in the United States. Prime Minister Mark Carney has called the auto tariffs

Alberta Premier Smith rejects criticism U.S. meetings amount to treason

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is channelling Winston Churchill to categorically reject accusations she is turning her back on Canada by meeting and talking to U.S. officials and influencers who wish her country harm. It comes as Smith prepares to fly to Florida today to join an event with an American podcaster who has mocked Canada as a ``silly country'' and spoken about it being annexed as the 51st state. Smith, in a speech to the house, says it is now apparently, in her words, ``treason'' to talk to American media personalities whom we disagree with. And she says she is being unjustly

Poilievre unveils action plan to combat extortion during Surrey visit

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre unveiled a three-point action plan to combat extortion-related crime during a press conference held today at the Royal King Banquet Hall in Surrey -the same location where a shooting incident took place on July 21, 2025. Flanked by Abbotsford–South Langley MP Sukhman Gill, and candidates Sukh Pandher and Jassie Sahota (a police officer), Poilievre said extortion-related crimes have surged by 330% under Liberal rule. He attributed this rise to the repeal of mandatory jail terms for gun-related extortion under Bills C-5 and C-75. “Extortion-related

Police say man charged after Alberta youth launch 'catch a predator' scheme

Alberta RCMP say they have arrested and charged a Calgary man who, it was later determined, had been the focus of a ``catch a predator'' sting operation hatched by a group of youngsters. Mounties say the situation came to light in Airdrie on Monday night when a 12-year-old boy was abducted in a car only to escape at a stoplight and call police. The suspect, a 37-year-old, refused to stop for police and was later arrested at a Calgary residence. Subsequently, police said they learned the suspect had been targeted by at least seven youths in a ``catch a predator'' scheme. The you

Costs of Manitoba’s extreme wildfire season start to take shape, evacuations ongoing

The Manitoba government has signed a 30-million-dollar contract with the Canadian Red Cross for evacuee support and other services related to this year's wildfires. The recently disclosed contract is the first glimpse into the cost of this year's wildfire season, which provincial officials say is the most severe in at least 30 years. Finance Minister Adrien Sala (SAH'-lah) says it's still too early to estimate a final cost, and the government is committed to supporting people who need help. The Red Cross contract alone is worth more than half of the 50-million dollars the N-D-P gover
