Tragic stories like this have become the norm, and we’ve become increasingly desensitized to the horrors of preventable death in this failing system. As a core of our Canadian identity, health care should be a beacon to the world of compassionate, timely, and accessible care. But it’s not. People die all the time waiting, others spend months in pain and uncertainty. Surely we can do better than this. My thoughts are with the family. She should still be alive. It’s wrong what happened to her.

Big get. Good news.

Uhm....saying there will be no difference in airports like Pearson and Trudeau isn't the flex they think it is.
Transport Minister Steven MacKinnon insists Canadians will "see little to no difference" as the government opens the country's four largest airports to private investment.

For over a year I have been pushing legislation to prevent this disgusting and dangerous practice of giving leniency to non citizens convicted of serious crimes to stop their deportation. The Liberals keep blocking it. End the two tier justice system. Deport this criminal.

The Prime Minister can’t seem to get his story straight about the “associate membership,” “unique alliance,” or whatever else he is negotiating with the EU. Conservatives are clear: we support the decades-old free trade & NATO defence alliance with Europe. But no EU taxes, no EU laws, and no EU open-border immigration policies should be imposed on Canadians. Canada must be independent and sovereign. Period.

A lot of questions to ask with this one. What will this mean for Canada's exorbitant airport fees - will airfares increase even more? Canada's major airports are already congested - will it get worse? Also, will foreign investors own critical Canadian infrastructure?
What does this mean for YXE and the people of Saskatoon? Just another example of Carney making major policy decisions without consulting Parliament. Decisions that always seem to benefit him and shareholders of companies like Brookfield.

I find it very comforting to find out about what our government is doing from other governments
A new chapter for the EU-Canada partnership 🇪🇺🇨🇦 Ahead of @CanadianPM @MarkJCarney's address to @Europarl_EN this Thursday, I am delighted that tonight, the European Parliament's Bureau has endorsed the establishment of an EP antenna office in Ottawa. A stronger presence that facilitates parliamentary exchanges across the Atlantic, with a regional remit reaching as far as the Arctic. Europe and Canada: old friends, still writing the next page together.

For starters, Canada potentially having to pick up obligations under the EU Pact on Migration. Canada's immigration system is already a dumpster fire. We can't afford to import any of the EU's migration system problems.

Do the terms of being an "associate member" include open borders with the EU? The EU has a massive migrant crisis, is Mark Carney positioning Canada to become part of that? Recall Parliament. He must explain what he means to Canadians, now.

To our grandchildren, on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. As you grow up, there will be continued efforts to erase the fact of what happened that day: a mass murder of innocent civilians by Islamist terrorists. In spite of what the world will try to tell you, you must know this. The extremist ideology of the Islamist terrorists that killed those people is alive and well. Those extremist beliefs are entrenched in militant theocratic death cults like the present Iranian regime, which mass murdered innocent Jews on October 7, 2023. That extremist ideology continues to be focused on ending our way of life: our democracy, gender equality, rule of secular law, pluralism, and freedom to worship without persecution.  Your grandfather spent over two decades of his life in the US army fighting against Islamist terrorism. And your Nana has in her way too - helping the survivors of their genocidal ideology, like the Yazidi people against whom Islamist terrorists committed genocide, and speaking up for the right of the Israeli people to defend themselves. We will not stop these efforts. It will eventually fall to you to take up this torch. The ideology that seeks to destroy your freedom will not quit until it has extinguished it. There will be many who seek to normalize that violence within our culture and democratic institutions. For your own sake and that of your own children, you must not let that come to pass. You are part of a family that defends freedom and pluralistic values. That includes standing against Islamist extremism and terrorism. We do not whitewash it. We are not silent when others try to do so.  There may be a cost to doing this. You may be told you should not speak of these things, made to believe they are not happening or never happened at all - or, worse, accused of being the problem yourself for daring to fight for your values and your freedom.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Ignore all of that. Too much is a stake to be spineless. Never forget what happened on 9/11, or that the evil that perpetrated it is alive and well. As the beneficiaries of living in a free and democratic nation you have the responsibility to take up the quarrel with that foe.  Stand firm, and never forget.  All our love, Nana and Grandpa.

The impact of these tariffs on the people of my city demands immediate answers from the Prime Minister. Recall Parliament. Release the full details of the deal they walked away from. Release the full costing of the tariffs, and who will have to pay. Now. My statement ⬇️
BREAKING: City of Calgary officials say there's a $315M-$466M estimated tariff risk on existing city contracts with no contingency scenarios in place. Administration says this is a point-in-time snapshot.

How much tougher can things get for the 2.2 million food bank users, the people defaulting on mortgages, the small businesses closing, and the people who can’t afford homes? What will counter tariffs cost families? Won’t say. Where is the deal he rejected? Hidden. Where is Parliament? Shut. Open Parliament. Release the deal. Reveal costs to families & small business & save jobs and money for our struggling people. Now: conservative.ca/cpc/reconven…
