The Frontier Centre provided 8 questions that British Columbians should ask during the election, and also made policy recommendations. This remains relevant today as the new provincial government sets its direction. youtu.be/oYbz1pBPTrU #BCpoli

Fixed election dates are routinely ignored. Would it be more honest for governments to remove fixed election date legislation? #cdnpoli #election

Premier Wab Kinew's refusal to criminalize residential school denialism protects public debate and keeps the Crown out of a historical dispute that Bill C-254 would ask it to settle.

Like Justin Trudeau, Mark Carney continues excessive deficits, restrictive speech policies, media subsidies, and selective regulatory exemptions, limiting Canada’s recovery and renewal. #cdnpoli #Carney #Trudeau #freespeech #defiit

Former MP Dorothy Dobbie reports on the Winnipeg conference's vision of Churchill and an Indigenous-owned Port Nelson as complementary Hudson Bay gateways, which together could expand Prairie market access, shipping security and northern economic development. youtu.be/maPb-vWvQJ8

Carney improves on Trudeau by reducing immigration, bureaucracy, and climate restrictions while promoting development. #cdnpoli #Carney #immigration #netzero

The Pacific Link #pipeline has a few expensive components required to make it work, much of it reliant on taxpayers. Canada should be creating conditions that attract private capital, not repeatedly putting taxpayers in the position of assuming risks private investors cannot quantify. #cdnpoli

Alberta’s separation referendum has moved from the political fringe to mainstream debate, drawing responses in Ottawa and across the country, ranging from alarm to dismissal. Whether one supports, opposes, or remains undecided on separation, how Canada’s federal system accommodates legitimate provincial grievances has become impossible to ignore.  Should Ottawa be required to negotiate formally with provinces that raise constitutional grievances, rather than dismissing or delegitimizing those concerns?

The pressure to allow medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for individuals whose sole condition is mental illness should make us question, is their request always rooted in a desire to die? Or could it be a veiled ask for help to live? #MAiD

Typical health union claims that they have good patient care in mind are being put to the test in a contract dispute in Saskatchewan between #SAHO and #CUPE Local 5430. Workers don't want to drive farther than usual on necessary occasions. #SKpoli

Susan Martinuk says the pressure to allow MAiD (medical assistance in dying) for individuals whose sole condition is mental illness raises key questions: is the request for MAiD always a desire to die? Or could it be a veiled ask for help to live? youtu.be/GQppQB-D2dU #MAiD #euthanasia

As a non-partisan think tank, Frontier Centre welcomes a variety of perspectives on the policy landscape related to Alberta’s future.

Let us know below!  #Alberta #cdnpoli

Many Albertans want independence and the new Quebec premier has promised a referendum on separation. Meanwhile, Eurosceptic parties are gaining support in Spain, Italy, France, and Germany. Shouldn't Canada focus on healing its divisions instead of seeking to join the European Union? #EU #cdnpoli

Decisions about Alberta's constitutional future must be made without undisclosed foreign influence. Transparency about political financing, foreign relationships and commercial interests is essential. #ABpoli #ABindependence

Riley Donovan says Canada should cap permanent immigration from each country to diversify admissions, limit ethnic enclaves, reduce imported conflicts, and strengthen integration. The US has had a similar approach for three decades. #cdnpoli #immigration #diversity youtu.be/G5CALzswpw0

Frontier Centre President David Leis argues that Canada’s greatest challenges are largely self-inflicted, including interprovincial trade barriers, regulatory uncertainty and federal-provincial disputes that weaken investment, prosperity and national unity. youtu.be/2yWqbjoahUU #cdnpoli
