Word of wisdom that we’re slightly ahead of their time Unfortunately, infatuated Canadians would still support the Party that’s brought them to their financial knees - as long as they can be conned into asserting it’s all Trump’s fault
Since we are on the subject of 'affordability' allow me to repeat what I said when Trudeau was prime minister. We live in a time when a Canadian family stops at a gas station and a grocery store on the same day and can't afford to fill up at either.

Was at St Jo Ham hospital today. 'Do you have one of those wheelchairs?' (you see at the entrance of hospitals to wheel in a patient). 'No' says attendant. Stolen!' Had 75, now only 13 left. What kind of hell have we become? Canada??? #HamOnt

Congratulations Hamilton on your choice for Mayor! Finally, one step forward, NOT followed by two steps backward! Whether municipally, provincially, or federally, Cdns are done with visionless socialism that leaves everyone vulnerable. Can't have programs without prosperity!!!

Pereceived bias at the Supreme Court How can Chief Justice Richard Wagner be objective about whether the govt's use of the Emergencies Act was constitutional, when he's already used the same rhetoric condemning the trucker protests as the government did? torontosun.com/opinion/edito…

Meanwhile Canadians w Cancer are being denied life saving treatment because of costs. Our systems are openly grifted. Gov does nothing to stop it. Honest people pay the price.
Minister @MarjoriePLC waives repayment of $434.8 million by people who falsely claimed free dentistry under Canada Dental Care Plan. @GovCanHealth reports it covered dentistry for ineligible claimants who already had private coverage. blacklocks.ca/bogus-claims-c… @CdnDentalAssoc #cdnpoli

"The losers are the Ukrainians, above all," The Atlantics David Frum tells Vassy Kapelos, breaking down why Donald Trump would choose a "useless" Russian energy deal over a minor increase in Canadian diesel.

Read Joe's column and decide if Canadians are owed an explanation by the Carney government. Is this what all the Mark Carney travel and international trade talk may be leading to? Toronto Sun torontosun.com/news/national…

EDITORIAL Canada's greenhouse gas emissions up again The numbers confirm yet again that the Trudeau Liberals had little understanding of the realities of energy generation, when they earmarked more than $200 billion of taxpayers’ money to lower emissions torontosun.com/opinion/edito…

It only took…11 yrs.
HUGE achievement by the Conservative Party! They got the Liberals to finally take action and make sure Canadians aren't being euthanized due to sole reason of mental illness. Minister of Justice Sean Fraser: "Canada has made a decision not to move forward with the expansion that is scheduled in the Criminal Code of medical assistance in dying in circumstances where mental illness is the sole basis. The government will be tabling legislation this fall that will maintain that exclusion on an indefinite basis." 👏👏👏

COLUMN: With new pipeline, Mark Carney admits the economy trumps climate change After a decade of Trudeau's policies, even the Liberals now admit climate change (or more accurately, human-induced climate change) is not an existential threat to humanity torontosun.com/opinion/colum…

If you were one of the people that laughed at Doug Ford calling them Chinese spy cars, you might want to think again. Don't take Ford's word for it, listen to the Dutch, the Brits, the Germans and Norwegians. torontosun.com/opinion/colum…

COLUMN: Wasteful & ineffective, federal spending on Indigenous issues out of control During the Trudeau era, inflation-adjusted spending rose from $10.3 billion in 2015 to $40.8 billion in 2025 while living standards remained far below Canadian norm torontosun.com/opinion/colum… 🧵

Trump expects Canada to say ‘Sir, we are sorry,’ and to ask for trade deal within weeks ctvnews.ca/world/trumps-tari… #cdnpoli As PM, JT took great pride in arrogantly insulting the U.S (especially Trump) every chance he got. Today, Canada is paying the price of vengence. Thx again JT!

One observation. David Eby's snap and self-serving BC provincial election call for October 24 evokes memories of Justin Trudeau's similarly cynical 2021 federal vote which cost Canada's taxpayers more tha $600 million and left occupancy of Ottawa government benches essentially unchanged. Eby, stirring the Donald Trump fear pot and spending millions of public dollars chasing increased job security should persuade every voter in British Columbia to question whether October 24 is nothing more than a political hustle.
