My sentence will be served January 21, 2027 and then it’ll be back to court to start this process all over again. By the time this is over, if it ever truly is, the Ontario taxpayers will be on the hook for around $15M for the prosecution of our case alone.

OTTAWA – As Prime Minister Mark Carney attempts to make Canada an energy superpower, he is conceding for the first time that the country’s greenhouse gas emissions will be “higher in the next few years” than projected under the previous government’s plan. The admission came in his second “Forward Guidance” video address to Canadians released on Tuesday.
Everything he says is a lie.
CALGARY — The federal government is preparing to defend billions of dollars in spending on housing and hotel accommodations for illegal immigrants and asylum claimants amid growing media scrutiny and opposition criticism, according to internal documents obtained through Access to Information legislation.
As first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter, officials at the Department of Immigration acknowledged concerns over public attention focused on the cost of shelter programs and whether taxpayer-funded supports are producing measurable results.
Heritage Minister Marc Miller said Monday the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg has erred in how it curated an exhibit about displaced Palestinians.
The federal cabinet minister said in an interview with The Canadian Press on Monday that the museum should change how it portrays the current conflict between Israel and Palestinians and update the museum’s oversight.
Spoken like a true weasel.
Toss in some Korean BBQ and I’m in.[/caption]OTTAWA — Choosing the winning bid for Canada’s next generation submarine fleet is coming down to the wire. Analysts say the race between the two contenders, German-Norwegian consortium ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) and South Korea’s Hanwha, is too close to call.
Prime Minister Mark Carney has previously said that a decision would be made before the end of June, but sources tell CTV News that the announcement will be delayed a few days. It will likely come before Carney leaves for the July 7 NATO leaders’ summit in Ankara, Türkiye.
According to data collected by Ratehub, the average Toronto condo price in March 2022 was $831,351, requiring a household income of $156,320. As of May 2026, the average condo price has dropped by roughly 19 per cent, to $673,841, requiring a household income of $139,000.
BUT … The Star is omitting pertinent facts about income figures.
The average household income in the City of Toronto is approximately $121,200 to $129,000 before taxes, while the median household income is roughly $84,000 to $97,000. The higher average compared to the median is typically skewed by a larger share of upper-income households.
In Ontario, the average household total income is approximately $116,000 before taxes, and the average after-tax income is about $95,300. For median household income (the midpoint), the figure sits at roughly $81,000 before taxes and $79,500 after taxes
The backlash came fast and furious, and with greater velocity than perhaps at any other moment in Mark Carney‘s tenure as prime minister.
The Liberals’ proposal last week — to put up 10 per cent of roughly $1.45 billion for the acquisition of unsold B.C. condos which in turn would be sold at affordable rates on a rent-to-buy basis — was rapidly condemned by critics as a “bailout” — evidence not only of political perfidy, but also ideological gymnastics on the part of a former central banker who, once upon a time, cautioned against this kind of moral hazard. (Carney himself acknowledged the reveal was a case study in miscommunication)
Businesses and labour groups are watching with a mix of anxiety and hope as a key trade moment arrives on Wednesday, as Premier Doug Ford sets off on his third trip in less than a month to meet with U.S. lawmakers.
The Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement on trade officially comes up for review on July 1 after an 18-month trade war sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
Groups representing both large and small Canadian businesses and one of the country’s most prominent labour unions say they’ll be watching the official opening of the review on Wednesday.
While acknowledging his Liberal government overshot post-pandemic admissions to Canada, Justin Trudeau defended immigration as essential and said successful integration depends not on common ancestry, but “shared values.”
The former prime minister shared his thoughts on immigration during a fireside-style chat with Finnish journalist Jaako Loikanna at the Sumoi Areena, an annual public debate and societal discussion forum in Pori, Finland, last Thursday.
I’ve been waiting to use “cockwomble”.
WINNIPEG — Our government is officially failing Jews and Palestinians. That’s what I came away with thinking after touring the Canadian Museum for Human Rights’ newest exhibit, Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present.
A growing gap is emerging between financially secure Canadians benefiting from rising asset values and those struggling to keep up with everyday expenses, according to a new Angus Reid Institute survey.
The poll found 70% of Canadians describe their household finances as either “good” or “very good,” but more than one-quarter (27%) say they are in poor or very poor financial condition.
HE Canadian parliament has passed Bill C-9, known as the Combating Hate Act; it received Royal Assent on June 18 and the provisions come into force on July 18. Mark Carney, the liberal Prime Minister, considers that the legislation is ‘a huge step forward in our mission to build a stronger, safer country’.
Bill C-9 will usher in a ‘dark day’ for Canadians of faith. Conservative MP Brad Redekopp described the Bill as ‘a tool to enforce liberal DEI ideology while leaving fundamental freedoms dangerously exposed’. Such is the danger to the church that the legislation been dubbed the ‘Bible Ban’ Bill.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling on Parliament to probe Ottawa’s proposal to convert unsold condominium units in British Columbia into affordable housing.
In a letter to the House ethics committee, Poilievre says a program to possibly help finance the purchase of 2,200 vacant condos amounts to a “condo bailout” for developers, bankers and investors.
OTTAWA — China keeps finding inventive ways to burrow into the West, and Canada’s new appetite for Chinese electric vehicles may be the most consequential opening yet.
That is the warning at the center of a report published this week by the Macdonald-Laurier Institute and written by Brenda Shaffer, an energy and national-security specialist who teaches at the United States Naval Postgraduate School.
Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke at Holy Blossom Temple in Toronto several weeks ago and denounced antisemitism and stated that, “Unity is not uniformity … our differences are strengths to be nurtured, not risks to be managed.” All Canadians of at least the age of seven have heard similar remarks by public figures, but they do not address the requirement of the comprehensive defence of minorities, and in particular the Jewish population. Carney flattered himself and his government for introducing Bill C-9, the Combating Hate Act, which has been described in this column before and has raised more concerns about the curtailment of freedom of expression than comfort for threatened minorities.
