These were definitely signs of the times.
Sign, sign everywhere a sign – except no longer at the corner of Keele St. and Wilson Ave.
Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
CCP-Liberal MP apologizes for suggesting people claim China’s bounty on Conservative
A Liberal candidate running for re-election in a battleground GTA riding is apologizing after suggesting people attempt to claim a Chinese bounty on a local Conservative candidate.
Paul Chiang — the Liberal candidate for Markham-Unionville — suggested during a local Chinese-language media news conference in January that people should claim the bounty on Joe Tay — currently running for the Conservatives in the Toronto riding of Don Valley North.
“To everyone here, you can claim the one-million-dollar bounty if you bring him to Toronto’s Chinese consulate,” Chiang said, according to the Toronto Association for Democracy in China (TADC).
A normal party would kick this traitor’s butt to the curb on grounds of foreign interference but the LPC is a CCP subsidiary.
Mark Carney promises plan to ‘reform’ the CBC in coming days
OTTAWA — Liberal Leader Mark Carney says he wants to reform the CBC/Radio-Canada to ensure the public broadcaster is viable.
During a campaign stop in Montreal Friday, Carney said that the “only” way to make the public broadcaster “viable” and “vibrant” was through reforms that he promised to announce in the coming days.
Mark Carney accused of plagiarism in Oxford thesis
Mark Carney has been accused of plagiarising his University of Oxford thesis.
On Friday, the Canadian prime minister and former governor of the Bank of England was forced to deny allegations he copied 10 passages of text for his 1995 doctorate.
The allegations are a blow to his election campaign. He faces a knife-edge vote on April 28 after calling a snap election against the backdrop of an aggressive trade war with Donald Trump.
Brampton Man
No leads on trucker charged in deaths of mom, daughter
More than four months after a semi-truck driver was charged in a collision that killed a Manitoba mother and daughter and then fled, police say they are no closer to finding the Ontario man.
Navjeet Singh, 25, of Brampton, is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant. He was charged Nov. 20 with two counts of dangerous driving causing death and a single count of obstructing a peace officer

CHARLEBOIS: Canola, pork and seafood burn while feds worship auto sector
In the shadow of endless headlines about Donald Trump and the American political circus, another crisis is quietly unfolding on Canadian soil — this one in our fields, barns and fishing boats.
As of March 17, China has imposed crippling tariffs on key Canadian agri-food exports: 100% on grains and canola, and 25% on pork, lobster and seafood. These aren’t abstract threats. These are real, immediate penalties on farmers, fishers and harvesters — Canada’s food producers.
WENZEL: Carney’s net-zero ideology would undoubtedly force home prices
With Mark Carney in the prime minister’s chair, it’s safe to assume his brand of climate-focused policy would drive the next wave of federal priorities. On the surface, that might sound appealing to those pushing net zero emissions.
But, when you peel back the layers, especially on the topic of net-zero housing, what you’re left with is an agenda that threatens to make housing even more unaffordable than is currently believed by the average Canadian. On the campaign trail he talks about building ‘millions of homes’ with no experience or real knowledge of what it would take to build these homes.
Lorne Gunter: Carney must commit to tie federal transfers to Quebec to pipeline access
Quebec’s provincial government released its 2025-26 budget on Tuesday.
“Wow, Lorne, please tell us more!”
OK, it might seem a bit of a stretch to start a column for Albertans with news about Quebec’s provincial budget, but the Quebec budget has implications for Alberta.
Bell: Looks like Carney could be set to screw over Alberta with oil tax
You don’t need a read-between-the-lines dictionary to figure out where Prime Minister Mark Carney could well be heading.
On Thursday, Carney is talking about U.S. President Donald Trump and how the Americans are hitting the Canadian auto industry with tariffs.
Carney is talking about April 2 when Trump is scheduled to take other swings at Canada.
My son and I live with the constant threat of being homeless. Housing is my election priority
Last summer, as I lay awake awaiting a forecasted storm, I left my windows open to feel the warm breeze.
As the first lightning strike lit up the night sky, I heard the boom of thunder. Then, like an echo, I heard screams from the homeless encampment on the river bank — the terror of those without shelter who were exposed to the storm and its potential dangers.
That terror hit me close to my heart, aching with the memory of how close my eight-year-old child and I had been to living on the streets ourselves.
Terry Newman: Carney is a walking conflict of interest
Canadians have a right to know before election day how Mark Carney’s past work life could intersect with his role as prime minister, and not four months from now, when the ethics commissioner finishes his report.
There are several potential issues that could arise under a Mark Carney government. Most are connected to his time at Brookfield Asset Management. These include potential conflicts of interest with investments tied to the firm’s performance, his former business relationship with China, and his net-zero work, which calls into question his commitment to Canadian energy. These could be potential issues for any government leader, regardless of party.
Mark Carney faces plagiarism accusations for 1995 Oxford doctoral thesis
OTTAWA — Liberal Leader Mark Carney has been accused of taking other people’s ideas as his own in the federal election campaign.
It isn’t new.
The National Post obtained a copy of Carney’s 1995 thesis for his doctorate in economics from Oxford University titled “The Dynamic Advantage of Competition.” It shows 10 instances of apparent plagiarism, according to the judgment of three university academics who reviewed the material.
BROWN: It’s class warfare in Election 2025
The battle lines have been drawn and based on the polls, policy, and the eye test, each side’s foot soldiers have been made clear.
For the Conservatives, who have opened with high energy, a message of “hope and change,” the power of happy-warrior positivity, and the highlighting of very real threats to Canada’s recovery and the reclamation of the Canadian Dream, their packed halls and overflow rooms are made up of a younger support base than ever before.
Jamie Sarkonak: Mark Carney’s boomer campaign
Mark Carney’s campaign is something out of a time machine. Thin on actual substance, he’s opted to emanate vibes instead, with cultural references to 1950s hockey, 1960s music and 1980s CBC programming, and imitations of nationalism by cheering on the stereotype of Canadian niceness. It’s quaint — but impossible to relate to.

In Canada’s most Conservative-voting province, Liberals’ rising fortunes stir anger
As punishing Chinese and American tariffs threaten Canada’s exports, Sask. farmers expressed anger and frustration over what they called U.S. President Donald Trump’s “stupidity.”
But for all the vitriol they have toward the U.S. leader, they also showed disdain for former prime minister Justin Trudeau and his successor, Mark Carney.
“Everything is for the east,” said Carl Jensen, who farms in Invermay, Sask., about 250 kilometres east of Saskatoon, during Canada’s Farm Show last week.
