People should take some time & listen to Mark Carney addressing the Australian parliament just to see a world leader speak eloquently and in a coherent manner. Very much the opposite of the buffoon who's in the White House right now.

Listening to Trump and Hegseth is like listening to maladjusted teenage boys playing a video game.

The Fifth Column: How MAGA Is Using Alberta Separatism to Break Canada Apart Alberta’s separatist movement is not what it appears to be. Behind the cowboy hats and grievance speeches about equalization payments lies…

Behind the cowboy hats and grievance about equalization lies something far more serious: foreign influence, backed by the Trump government, aimed to use legitimate frustrations as a crowbar to split Canada and hand our oil, water, and minerals to the USA.

Ivermectin is making a post-pandemic comeback, among cancer patients The anti-parasitic drug became a household name during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is now being embraced as an alternative treatment for cancer. It is as politically polarizing as ever.

Reality: harmful BS. An ideological flag.

Ivermectin is making a post-pandemic comeback, among cancer patients www.npr.org/2026/03/02/n...

"It became really a symbol of this sort of alternative right-wing movement..."

"...no good evidence that ivermectin is an effective cancer treatment"

Danielle Smith is now blaming immigrants for her own decision.

How can she point the finger at overcrowding and unsustainable population growth while she's still paying people to move here?

ANALYSIS | Danielle Smith says court 'skewed' to Liberal donors, but UCP picks have political ties just as often | CBC News CBC analysis suggests about one-fifth of federally named judges match with Liberal donor lists. About as many judges picked by the province likely gave to UCP.

When Danielle Smith claimed 80% of federally picked judges had donated to Liberals, that was way higher than any figure I'd researched.
I dug into it. Could confidently write here:
"It is not true. The single media source Smith got that fact from has since corrected it."

UCP Spends So Much and Delivers So Little in Budget 2026 After sevenΒ years under the UCP, life isΒ demonstrablyΒ harder for Albertans. This budget makes life even harder.

The UCP government has spent so much money to deliver so little for Albertans.

After seven years under the UCP, life is demonstrably harder for Albertans, and this budget does not help in any way.

I’m not surprised. The more the US descends into chaos the more Canada supports PM Carney and thoughtful decent and competent governance.

Surgeon General Nominee Sidesteps Questions on Vaccines at Senate Hearing

This a quack. A wellness woo grifter.

She has ZERO scientific credibility.

Like so many MAHA influencers, she mixes very obvious health advice (stuff we’ve all been pushing for decades) with pseudoscience & fearmongering BS.

Sum: horrifying.

Conservatives calling for probe into asylum seekers' access to health… National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views.

A mom seeking refuge from the Ukraine or Sudan war takes her child to the emergency ward and Poilievre wants to make sure her child is turned away.
He's running on the MAGA playbook of making race blaming great again.

I would like to believe that the courts have put a check on a tyrant's power.
My gut feeling is that we are going to witness more unhinged behaviour.

Danielle Smith keeps feeding the beast If there’s a Pandora’s Box that Alberta's premier hasn’t opened yet, it’s not for a lack of trying.

My latest: because one national unity crisis wasn't enough, Danielle Smith has decided to provoke another one β€”all, of course, in the name of placating the separatists that run her party.

The new Defence Investment Agency will speed up procurement, cut red tape, and expand domestic production.

We’ll protect our sovereignty, strengthen our defence industry, and create thousands of new careers.
