Pre-construction condo buyers face steep losses as Toronto prices slide

Homebuyers who gambled that buying a home before it was built could get them an early foothold in an expensive market are discovering what happens when values drop.

A growing number of Canadians — especially in condominium markets such as Toronto’s — are learning the hard way that when property values fall, developers and lenders aren’t willing to absorb the loss without a fight.

The End of Artificial Employment

The real scandal of our time is not that artificial intelligence is replacing human labor. The scandal is that so much of that labor was misallocated to begin with. AI is not the killer—it is the coroner.

For decades, vast portions of the workforce have been diverted away from productive enterprise into roles sustained not by consumer demand, but by the state: artificial credit, regulatory protection, state contracts, and legal coercion. Entire departments and job functions endured not because they created value, but because they were politically entrenched and institutionally shielded from market forces.

Hmmm … More than 1 in 5 Canadians now works for government—and the share is rising

Poilievre Labels $750K Fine for Former BC Trustee’s Gender Ideology Comments ‘Insane’

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling a recent ruling by a B.C. tribunal “insane and Orwellian” after a former school board trustee was ordered to pay $750,000 for speaking out against sexual orientation and gender identity curriculum.

The B.C. Human Rights Tribunal ordered former Chilliwack school trustee Barry Neufeld to pay $750,000 to the Chilliwack Teachers’ Association after ruling last week that he had violated the Human Rights Code by publishing content that it deemed “discriminatory” and exposed LGBT people “to hatred or contempt.”

John Ivison: Trump’s tariffs on Canada are about to get worse

The 6-3 majority U.S. Supreme Court decision on the unlawful nature of President Donald Trump’s emergency act tariffs suggests democracy is still alive in the Great Republic.

Friday’s decision reaffirmed the basic constitutional principle about the separation of powers between Congress and the president, clarifying that Trump has no authority on his own to impose tariffs using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) because the Constitution gives that power to Congress.

The ruling drops the average “posted” tariff rate to around seven per cent from 16 per cent.

As Carney heads to India, Canada seeks to revoke citizenship of 2008 Mumbai attack ‘mastermind’

The Canadian government is pushing to revoke the citizenship of a Pakistan-born businessman accused of playing a key role in the 2008 terrorist attack in Mumbai, India that left 166 dead.

Documents obtained by Global News show that immigration officials have notified Tahawwur Rana Hussain that they intend to strip him of the Canadian citizenship he acquired in 2001.

The 65-year-old immigrated to Canada in 1997, and was later convicted in the United States of plotting to attack staff at a Danish newspaper that printed cartoons depicting the Muslim prophet Mohamed.

Minnesota Democrats’ Priorities: Owning AR-15 Gets You More Jail Time Than Attempted Rape

I’m not making this one up. Minnesota’s Democrats, called the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party because we are weird here, have proposed a law to make owning an AR-15, the most popular rifle in America, selling 3-4 million copies a year, a felony with a sentence of up to five years.

Attempting to rape somebody in the presence of a child is, in Minnesota statutes, a lessor crime than owning one if this law passes.

Canada seeks answers from OpenAI for failing to alert police after suspending school shooter’s account

Canada’s artificial intelligence minister says he has summoned representatives from the technology company OpenAI after the company declined to alert police after suspending the account of a user who became the perpetrator of one of the country’s worst-ever school shootings.

Evan Solomon says he is “deeply disturbed” by reports that the company, which operates the popular ChatGPT chatbot, suspended the account of Jesse Van Rootselaar over the “furtherance of violent activities” in June 2025 but did not reach out to Canadian law enforcement.

Tory MP Vows Daily Reminders on Confidential Police Deal With China Until Ottawa Discloses Details

Conservative MP and public safety critic Frank Caputo says he will keep asking the federal government to release its agreement with China on law enforcement cooperation until it discloses the document that so far has been kept confidential to the public.

Caputo sent a letter to Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree on Feb. 9, requesting a copy of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on cooperation in combating crimes between the RCMP and China’s ministry of public security, which Ottawa signed during Prime Minister Mark Carney’s visit to China in January.

Trump threatens ‘obnoxious’ tariffs as UK and EU seek clarity on trade deals

Donald Trump has declared that he can use tariffs in a “much more powerful and obnoxious way”, as the UK and the EU said they were seeking urgent clarity on the US trade deals they struck last summer.

Trump threatened to escalate his global tariff war on Monday, after a supreme court ruling last week that he had overstepped his legal authority to impose his “liberation day” measures last year.

Keir Starmer’s spokesperson said he did not expect Trump’s new 15% global tariff – announced on Saturday – to affect the majority of a UK-US economic deal that was agreed last year.
