Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Seniors are the largest, fastest-growing homeless population in Canada. It’s a collective shame upon our country
The belief that mental illnesses are the main driver of rising homelessness is noticeably widespread, and is prompting governments across Canada to expand involuntary commitment as a purported “solution.”
This belief, though, is not promoted by experts on homelessness so much as by influential proponents of more funding for mental health services and involuntary commitment, such as the British Columbia Schizophrenia Society, and by governments themselves, dodging responsibility for failed economic policies. In fact, the belief is heavily based on misleading claims and dubious data. Worse, it’s hindering us from fully recognizing and discussing – let alone helping – the people who are actually the fastest-growing demographic of unhoused Canadians. And if we don’t start seeing more clearly and investing in real solutions, this latter group could soon overwhelm the country’s already stretched support systems.
Bryan Brulotte: China’s economic and demographic crunch has massive implications for Canada
Much has been written about China’s rise. Far less attention has been paid to a more important question: whether China’s economic model can sustain it.
For more than three decades, China achieved one of the most remarkable economic expansions in modern history, lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty and transforming itself into the manufacturing centre of the world. Yet beneath that success lies a growing structural weakness that Canadian policymakers should watch closely: debt.
GOLDSTEIN: C’mon Liberals, admit the Trudeau climate policy doesn’t work
Rather than blaming Prime Minister Mark Carney for backsliding on climate change, why don’t the Liberals simply admit their policies under former prime minister Justin Trudeau were misguided, ineffective and ruinously expensive for Canadian taxpayers?
Toronto group calls to release alleged Iran proxy who coordinated waves of attacks on Jewish sites
A Toronto activist group called for the US to release the Iranian regime proxy group commander who allegedly helped orchestrate attacks on Jewish, Israeli, and dissident sites and individuals across Europe and North America in the name of Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia (HAYI), in a Thursday statement.
Al-Ahrar Palestinian Prisoner Support called for the immediate release of Kataib Hezbollah commander Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, who had been extradited and charged by the US Department of Justice on May 15 for various terrorism offenses related to 18 attacks.
The Canada-based organization called on activists and organizations to act against the “violent move” by the US, rejecting his criminalization and describing his attacks as legitimate wartime actions.
Honda just issued a warning about its future in Canada. That could inadvertently hand a win to Chinese EV makers
One of Ontario’s biggest and most reliable automakers is warning Canadians not to take its presence here for granted.
“Companies don’t automatically keep building vehicles in the same country just because it’s always been that way,” Honda Canada president Dave Jamieson told an industry summit convened by the Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association in Vaughan this week.
It wasn’t a throwaway line. Jamieson spent almost his entire speech — one of his first since taking the job last year — making the case that Canada is at a policy crossroads that could determine whether his company keeps investing in its manufacturing base in Alliston, Ont.
Liberal MP defends his Somali Heritage Month bill amid online backlash
OTTAWA — Liberal MP Yvan Baker says his proposal to create a Somali Heritage Month in Canada is intended to recognize contributions made by immigrant communities, responding to criticism that emerged after the bill was introduced in Parliament.
Baker’s Bill C-283, which received first reading this week, would designate July as Somali Heritage Month.
Russia calls Canada a ‘warmonger’ for new drone deal with Ukraine
OTTAWA — Moscow is calling Canada a “warmonger” for signing a drone-production deal with Ukraine and is vowing to publish the address of a Canadian company working with Kyiv.
Two weeks ago, Ottawa announced a corporate partnership between Canadian and Ukrainian drone makers that could see drones made in Canada deployed to Ukraine’s front line.
The deal involves Ukrainian company Airlogix and Canadian drone maker Sentinel R&D, which is based in Hamilton, Ont.
I blame Grifty!
A Uyghur Advocate’s Warning to Mark Carney: Canada Is on “a Suicide Mission,” and Beijing’s Hidden Hand Reaches Into Western Media
OTTAWA/ISTANBUL — On June 12, Dr. Gulshan Abbas turns 64. She will mark the birthday, as she has marked the last seven, inside a Chinese prison — serving a 20-year sentence her family says was manufactured to punish her sister for speaking out.
That sister, Rushan Abbas, co-founder and executive director of the Campaign for Uyghurs, joined the Bureau Podcast from Istanbul this week to discuss her memoir, Unbroken, and to deliver a blunt warning to Prime Minister Mark Carney: Canada is walking the same road the United States walked decades ago and only really corrected course over the past decade.
Podcast – “I Wonder How Many People Mark Carney Has Around Him That’s Actually Working for China”: Rushan Abbas, author of Unbroken.
OTTAWA — Rushan Abbas, co-founder and executive director of the Campaign for Uyghurs and author of the memoir Unbroken, joined The Bureau Podcast from Istanbul, in the middle of a tour that has carried her from the Oslo Freedom Forum to the halls of the U.S. Congress — where, she says, countering Beijing is now one of the only things uniting Republicans and Democrats.
Michael Taube: Carney underplays U.S. cancellation of 86-year defence partnership with Canada
Canada-U.S. relations have reached the lowest point in our collective lifetime. Frustrations with U.S. President Donald Trump and tariffs largely changed the course of last year’s federal election. There’s been a staggering rise in Canadian nationalism and anti-American sentiments in the Great White North. Unfounded fears about annexation ran wild for a spell. Cross-border business and tourism, retail and supply chain issues have been affected, too.
Defence contractor linked to deputy minister’s brother secured meeting with Carney
A Canadian defence technology startup whose chief lobbyist is the brother of Deputy National Defence Minister Christiane Fox was granted a private meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney to discuss military drone technology, according to newly disclosed government records.
Blacklock’s Reporter says documents obtained through Access to Information show Ottawa-based Dominion Dynamics met with the prime minister as the company seeks to expand its role in Canada’s defence sector.

Scrap China EV deal, auto group says in push to focus on U.S.
Diversification beyond the U.S. automobile market is “not an option” for Canada and Ottawa should scrap a trade deal with China that is seeing Chinese electric vehicles enter the Canadian market, a group representing three of the biggest U.S. automakers in Canada said on Tuesday.
The standing committee on international trade in the House of Commons heard from Brian Kingston, the president of the Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers Association, a group that represents the operations of Ford, General Motors and Stellantis in Canada.
This ought to go over well in Washington.

Arbour’s fantasy vision of Canada
Much like Prime Minister Mark Carney’s speech to the Jewish community last week, Governor General Louise Arbour described an idealized Canada that doesn’t exist in her installation speech on Monday.
They share the enduring view of the Laurentian Elite — the political, legal, financial and cultural gatekeepers of Canada in the Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto corridor — of which Arbour, as a former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and Supreme Court justice, is a charter member.
Under the Liberals GG appointments are treated as opportunity to insult Canadians.
LILLEY: Canada’s failed covenant is leading to quiet Jewish exodus
We are witnessing the beginning stages of a new Jewish exodus, not from Egypt and slavery, but from Canada’s rising antisemitism. There are the high-profile cases like bestselling author and professor Gad Saad or Dr. Emmanuel Moss, the chief heart surgeon at the Montreal Jewish General Hospital.
As Allies Tie China’s Police Ministry to Overseas Repression, RCMP Refuses to Name Its Partner Agency
OTTAWA — In January 2026, the RCMP signed a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Public Security (MPS), renewing a framework for police cooperation with the same arm of the Chinese state that prosecutors in two democracies have now tied, in open court, to the surveillance and intimidation of dissidents on foreign soil — and, in one of those jurisdictions, to a notorious triad. It is a development that corroborates recent United States Treasury sanctions and Washington Post reporting pointing to deepening ties between Beijing’s security services and transnational Chinese mafia proxies.
