Ottawa’s operating spending — not capital — driving deeper deficits: PBO

OTTAWA – The parliamentary budget officer projects Ottawa will blow past the new fiscal anchors set out in last week’s 2025 federal budget.

Interim budget officer Jason Jacques says in a new analysis of the budget that Ottawa is set to run an average deficit of $64.3 billion over the next five years — double the level set out in the federal government’s last fiscal update in late 2024.

Despite Prime Minister Mark Carney’s talk of shifting government spending to capital investment rather than operating costs, Jacques says the deeper deficits are being driven by new day-to-day program spending.

‘It’s a bloodbath out there:’ Tech workers forced to take ‘survival jobs’ as AI cuts swath through workforce

The technology sector was supposed to supply Vancouver’s jobs of the future. But fresh graduates and laid-off workers say job searches now take months, even years, forcing some to walk dogs or stock shelves to pay the bills

Throngs of 20-somethings dressed in blazer-jean combos and armed with paper résumes were asking senior tech leaders about how to break into the industry during a brunch networking meeting in October at the KPMG LLC office in downtown Vancouver.

It was yet another technology-focused event — from networking brunches to mentorship walks to artificial intelligence (AI) workshops — in the city that has attracted sold-out crowds of fresh graduates and young tech workers pursuing their first jobs in the age of AI.

CORPORATE CANADA’S RESPONSE: Recruit more foreign workers, especially the one’s Trump is denying visas to!

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney says he sees an opening for Canada to attract global tech talent now that the United States is introducing a $100,000 fee for temporary visas for workers with specialized skills.

… According to Pew Research, about 60 per cent of H-1B visas issued since 2012 were held by people in computer-related fields.

That article quoting Carney is from a month ago. No matter what the question the answer is always “More foreign workers”.

An unanswered question is how many foreign students are among the unemployed “tech workers” discussed in the FP piece.

Old Liberal Hack says Canada’s reputation on welcoming refugees is at risk

Former immigration minister says Canada’s reputation on welcoming refugees is at risk

OTTAWA — Former immigration minister Lloyd Axworthy, a prominent global champion for refugees, said he believes Canada is putting its reputation as a welcoming place for refugees at risk through recent federal policy shifts.

Those shifts, he said, include the Carney government’s new border security bill, C-12, which would limit the ability of individuals who have been in Canada for more than a year to claim asylum.

It also would give the government new authority to cancel or suspend some immigration documents, including permanent resident visas and immigration applications, in what the legislation calls the “public interest.”

I am sick of these clowns.

Ontario and Quebec are poorer than Louisiana and 42 other states: Report

The per capita purchasing power of most American states far exceeds that of Canadian provinces, with Ontario and Quebec ranking near the bottom of the list, well behind Tennessee, Georgia, Wyoming, and North Dakota.

Ontarians are poorer on average than Americans from 43 states, including those from New Mexico, Montana, South Carolina, Louisiana, Nebraska, and Missouri, according to new Statistics Canada data and the U.S. Bureau of Economics. The data was compiled by Hub contributor and University of Calgary economist Trevor Tombe, who looked at GDP per capita in 2024 for all states and provinces. Ontario ranked 48th out of the 60 states and provinces.

Be angry with Trump all you want but he didn’t land us here. The Liberal Party and their Corporate Crony’s did.

Top soldier has second thoughts about recruiting public servants for reserves

Canada’s top soldier appears to be having second thoughts about recruiting public servants to augment reserve forces, adding they are already doing enough for defence.

Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Jennie Carignan and defence deputy minister Stefanie Beck signed a document on May 30, 2025, launching a plan to boost both the reserves and what is known as the Supplementary Reserve.

Ottawa must be fearing a Nepal style insurrection one reader suggested.

Carney bets on more critical minerals mining, electricity and liquified natural gas in latest batch of major projects

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney announced Thursday that his government is sending more critical minerals mining, clean electricity, and a liquefied natural gas project to a new federal office designed to streamline the regulatory approvals process.

Speaking in Terrance, B.C., he announced that six more projects would be forwarded to the Major Projects Office, saying they met the government’s criteria of what constituted “nation-building” efforts to spur development and attract billions more in private investment, which the prime minister said would lead to new jobs.

McTEAGUE: Liberal’s green spending putting Canada on a road to ruin

Once upon a time, Canadians were known for our prudence and good sense to such an extent that even our Liberal Party wore the mantle of fiscal responsibility.

Whatever else you might want to say about the party in the era of Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin, it recognized the country’s dire financial situation — back when The Wall Street Journal was referring to Canada as “an honorary member of the Third World” — as a national crisis.

Relative of Muammar Gaddafi given a new chance to stay in Canada due to uncle’s close bond with dead Libyan dictator

A relative of former Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi has been given another chance to remain in Canada by arguing he was much closer to the brutal authoritarian regime than immigration officials thought he was.

Seraj Essaadi El Ferjani Ahmed, a citizen of Libya, has been in Canada since 2017 and appears to be the nephew of a notorious member of Gaddafi’s inner circle, a man so loyal he was fleeing with Gaddafi when the leader was caught by rebels in 2011 and killed.

Our recent past …

Internal Emails Show Immigration Officials Cautioned Against Mentioning ‘Free’ Health Care in Controversial Post

Immigration department staff have been cautioned against describing Canada’s health-care system as “free” in social media posts encouraging people to immigrate to Canada, according to internal emails.

October social media posts from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) read, “Thinking about moving to Canada? Did you know Canada has public health care? Learn how it works, who can get it and what services are covered.”

Geoff Russ: Canada desperately needs to find its ‘we’ again

The classical liberal John Stuart Mill once warned that “free institutions are next to impossible in a country made up of different nationalities.” He wrote that, without a “united public opinion,” representative government lacked the common sympathies and culture required for it to work properly. He added that even entities like the army would cease to identify with the people and become another branch of the state.

Liberty’s better theorists have always presumed a “we,” and Canada needs to find its “we” again.

There can be no “we” in a nation subjected to the abuse of it’s culture, values and heritage by the heinous immigration scam orchestrated by Canada’s so called “elites”.

Creating a Youth Climate Corps could be Carney’s FDR moment … or not

Being raised in Canada taught me two enduring lessons: To care for the environment, and to contribute meaningfully to public life.

That’s why in 2023, when an unexpected call from the White House came in, I stepped forward. I was appointed by president Joe Biden, and within months began work on the historic American Climate Corps program.

In his first budget, Prime Minister Mark Carney has proposed a similar climate corps for Canada – a bold, consequential, nation-building program with deep roots and a rich legacy dating back nearly 100 years. This is exactly the kind of generational investment that young people need.

Sounds like a job application.

Carney gov’t committed to Trudeau’s economy killing eco-loon policies

These children were jailed for coal scavenging under the Carney government’s eco-laws.

Canada’s new environment minister and Environment and Climate Change officials confirmed that the federal government is standing by the national climate targets previously set under Justin Trudeau.

On several occasions, Environment and Climate Change Minister Julie Dabrusin was asked about whether the current Liberal government was still committed to working toward the near-term targets set under the previous prime minister, particularly the 2035 emissions target.

Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by a minimum of 45 per cent below 2005 by that timeline.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Don’t fall for Carney’s ‘Buy Canadian’ fallacy

Protectionists, start your engines. On Monday, Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a “Buy Canadian” procurement policy that prioritizes Canadian suppliers for all manner of federal spending, including a second set of national “major projects” he’s announcing on Thursday. “We will build Canadian, by becoming our own best customer,” Carney intoned. Ottawa will allocate nearly $186 million in new funding to the policy, including “streamlined support for Canadian small and medium-sized businesses trying to break into the federal market.”
