Federal nuclear strategy aims to have 10 new large-scale reactors built in Canada

Federal nuclear strategy aims to have 10 new large-scale reactors built in Canada

The federal government wants to dramatically scale up the use of nuclear power and the export of Canadian-owned reactor technology through a new strategy that sets a goal of increasing by more than 50 per cent the number of large-scale reactors in Canada.

In a policy document to be released on Monday by Energy Minister Tim Hodgson, and obtained by The Globe and Mail, the government positions nuclear power as a triple threat for Canada’s economy, energy transition and sovereignty.


10 nuclear reactors? In Canada? BS.

GOLDSTEIN: No accountability for record federal spending on Indigenous issues

GOLDSTEIN: No accountability for record federal spending on Indigenous issues

When Federal Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty announced $4.6 billion in new funding to eliminate all long-term unsafe drinking water advisories on reserves, she refused to set a deadline for when that will happen.

“The deadline goal is not part of my narrative,” she told the Globe and Mail.

That’s the problem with the Liberals’ approach to Indigenous spending.

Poilievre slams federal-B.C. plan to buy vacant condos, calling it a ‘bailout’ for developers

Poilievre slams federal-B.C. plan to buy vacant condos, calling it a ‘bailout’ for developers

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is slamming a plan by the federal and B.C. governments to buy vacant condo units in the province and turn them into affordable housing — a move he describes as a “bailout” that should be immediately cancelled.

“Where is your bailout?” Poilievre told reporters in Vancouver on Sunday afternoon. He further argued that Prime Minister Mark Carney “seems to have a bailout for anyone who’s part of the Liberal club of power brokers.”

On Thursday, Carney and B.C. Premier David Eby announced that over the next 10 years, the federal government would invest more than $5 billion in British Columbia’s local infrastructure through the Build Communities Strong Fund.


People can’ afford food but Carney’s breed of slime can always find an excuse for lavish Corporate welfare bail outs.

‘This is nuts’: The hard-fought race to build Canada’s next submarine fleet

‘This is nuts’: The hard-fought race to build Canada’s next submarine fleet

OTTAWA — From a massive ad blitz featuring Canadian broadcast icon Peter Mansbridge to a cabinet minister calling on shipbuilders to cough up a car plant, the brief race to replace Canada’s aging submarine fleet turned heads in more ways than one.

The unusually short competition to build the navy’s next submarine fleet seemed to focus on everything but the boats themselves — even though the two vessels in the running are, in some ways, very different.

At no point during the two-year-long procurement competition did the federal government ever really talk about the boats’ capabilities. The navy made it clear very early on that either model would do just fine.


My guess is Germany, more room for graft in Europe.

Tyrannical legislation drives thousands of Canadians to flee Canada

Tyrannical legislation drives thousands of Canadians to flee Canada

According to recently released data from Statistics Canada, a record 120,640 Canadians left Canada and emigrated to other countries in 2025, surpassing the previous high from the year prior. Notice a trend? Wonder why?

Possibly because the Liberal government under Prime Minister Mark Carney is desperately attempting to ram through a dystopian internet censorship bill which would demand that people’s data be kept for possible police review.


We may be forced to flee in the near future but currently I think the reason to do so is primarily economic self interest.

Mark Carney is building a surveillance state online.

What else can you call a government that’s working to outlaw online anonymity? That plans to ID internet users as if going online is the same as entering a bar? That plans to create the equivalent of a human rights tribunal for offensive speech online?


We will soon mirror the UK. One day you may be thanking Trump.

‘Bloodbath for sellers’: Tales from the frontlines of Toronto’s condopocalypse

‘Bloodbath for sellers’: Tales from the frontlines of Toronto’s condopocalypse

Davelle Morrison listed her client’s 650-square-foot condo in downtown Toronto’s Corktown neighbourhood for $558,000 at the beginning of March 2026 — then reduced the price by $38,000 in a hopeful effort to get more bites. When the bites didn’t materialize, Morrison relisted the property for $399,000 on May 4 with an offer night slated for a week later.

Not that long ago, such a price point and sales strategy would have guaranteed a frenzy of activity.


Vancouver’s shoe box builders just got bailed by Carney.

I wonder if his ChiCom pals can convince him to do the same for Toronto?

2 Million Draft dodgers in Ukraine do what they must to avoid the front lines

2 Million Draft dodgers in Ukraine do what they must to avoid the front lines

Volodymyr was out jogging around the lake near his home, as he did almost every morning, when he noticed a van slowly driving alongside him. He immediately understood what was going on. It was the summer of 2024, and the Ukrainian military was in the middle of a conscription drive. Volodymyr was a man of service age but wasn’t wearing a uniform. He sped up, and so did the van.

The fit, broad-shouldered 31-year-old escaped from the men he suspected were conscription officers by cutting through a park. But afterward, he stopped going for his morning jog.


The article quotes Ukraine Defence Minister Mikhailo Fedorov’s stating that there are 2 million draft evaders in Ukraine.

Some perspective.

“An estimated 570,000 men were classified as draft offenders during the Vietnam War era, with approximately 210,000 formally accused of draft violations and another 100,000+ deserting the military. Among these resisters, between 30,000 and 50,000 fled to Canada to avoid conscription.”

I feel like Country Joe: Well it’s 1,2,3 why are we funding this war? Heck you know I don’t give a damn it’s the latest version of the Afghan scam.

Canada is not a wealthy nation. We have done our share. This is Europe’s conflict to bear not ours.

On the upside Carney is ingratiating himself with the EU via our tax dollars. All the better for Brookfield.

Motor Mouth: What the hell is Melanie Joly doing?

According to Wiktionary, a “mixed message” is “communication that contains contradictory, inconsistent, or unclear information, making it difficult for the receiver to understand the sender’s true intent, thoughts, or feelings.” If that be so, then Mark Carney’s recent “hot mic” moment at this week’s G7 summit and Melanie Joly’s (almost) simultaneous announcement she was heading to China to drum up some auto business might be the very definition of getting your wires crossed.

Canadians will pay up to $3,348 this year on government debt interest, study finds

A new study from the Fraser Institute says that every Canadian this year will pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars to service the interest on federal and provincial debt, with Newfoundlanders and Manitobans paying the most, and Albertans the least.

“For more than a decade, deficit spending and growing government debt have become a trend for many Canadian governments,” says the report, authored by Jake Fuss, director of Fiscal Studies at the Fraser Institute. “In 2025/26, the federal government and all ten provinces are projected to record deficits.”

Opinion: Carney’s ‘maple MAGA’ moment rings hollow

In late May, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney had a “maple MAGA” moment. Speaking before the Economic Club of New York, Carney claimed that “Canada Strong will help make America great again,” combining his own political slogan with U.S. President Donald Trump’s.

Painting Canada as a reliable supplier of energy and critical minerals and as a partner in an integrated North American auto market, he noted that “the examples are legion where we should work together and compete with the world together.”

Immigration rates still at generational highs, even if population shrinking

Immigration rates still at generational highs, even if population shrinking

For the third consecutive quarter, the population of Canada has shrunk, capping off an unprecedented nine-month period that has seen the Canadian population go down by a combined 180,000 people.

But the phenomenon is due almost entirely to Ottawa reining in the meteoric surge of temporary migration experienced by Canada between 2022 and 2024. On multiple other immigration streams intake continues to remain at generational if not all-time highs.

There’s a lot not to like about the new anti-hate council

There’s a lot not to like about the new anti-hate council

At the opening of a national summit on antisemitism five years ago, then-senator Marc Gold told those gathered: “Antisemitism in all its forms is not a job for one summit. It’s not a job for one generation.”

But can it be the job of one council?

When Prime Minister Mark Carney gave what was supposed to be a landmark speech about antisemitism this month (which has been derided as falling far short by many, including this newspaper’s editorial board), he revealed the members of the previously announced Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality and Inclusion, and tasked the council with dealing with antisemitism as its first priority.

Geoff Russ: Sorry, Carney, but the idea that newcomers don’t bring hatreds with them is a fiction

“When you come to Canada,” Mark Carney told newcomers in a speech addressing antisemitism, “you bring your faith, your tradition, your language, your story. You leave behind your wars and your animosities.”

It’s a pleasant, even pleasing fiction for millions of Canadians who imagine that a mythical “blank slate” exists for newcomers. The hard truth is that some peoples’ stories are welded to wars, and many of their traditions are centred on a desire to settle scores.
