Canada’s economy looked like it was booming. Then slower immigration made it difficult to maintain that illusion. Economists at BMO Capital Markets challenged the narrative that population growth fuels economic growth. Looking at over 50 years of data, the bank warned investors there’s zero correlation between population and economic growth. The manufactured boom briefly provided a distraction from a weak economy, pairing it with a housing crisis that’s now in full correction mode.
The feds are bringing attention back to their rural immigration programs — this time to their Francophone Community Immigration Pilot (FCIP) in particular.
In a social media post, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) revisited its pilot, first announced back in early 2025, reaffirming its commitment to the francophone program in mid-2026.
There is a pattern to building a respectable business.
Small family businesses mark milestones along a growth trajectory that builds over time into a mature, stable and sometimes profitable business.
Our little trucking business was like that. The first new truck. A bigger rented yard and shop. The first big company party. And finally, our first, heavily mortgaged and built-to-spec. truck yard.
Members of Ontario’s trucking industry say they understand why Quebec will require inexperienced drivers from Ontario to take practical exams, citing concerns over insufficient training.
“I don’t blame them. It’s unfortunate,” said Gus Rahim, president of Ontario Truck Driving School.
Some schools that offer training in Ontario — the first province to introduce mandatory entry-level training for truckers — have been found by Ontario’s auditor general to be cutting corners, and Rahim says that’s been a serious concern for the reputation of all schools and for road safety.

A non-citizen with a manslaughter conviction was under court-ordered supervision when police found a loaded handgun, cocaine and fentanyl in his car.
David Jajua, 34, was sentenced to six-and-a-half years last month in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.
Another day, another example of Canada continuing its downward spiral.
This time we’ve got machete-wielding thugs slashing at women at Beacon Hill Park in Victoria, BC.
Look at photos from the incident and, surprise, it’s the usual suspects.
A lot of “elite” people should be jailed for a very long time.
After months of protesting outside Queen’s Park, hundreds of applicants who say they were wrongly caught up in Ontario’s crackdown on immigration fraud are taking their fight to court.
A panel of three judges is scheduled to hear a judicial review on July 8 involving applicants whose Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) applications were returned last year. The applicants argue the province unfairly grouped legitimate workers with fraudulent applications by returning thousands of files without individually assessing them.
We have been abused by our elite scammers.
I waste far too much of my valuable time on X, but this post caught my attention, as I notice the exact same thing every time I return from the US…
When I’m describing my early years to my children it often feels like I’m talking about a journey made by time machine. At the age of 12 — a child myself — I was babysitting other people’s children. I should not have been trusted to look after a peanut butter sandwich, but concepts like safety were more fluid in those days.
I worked three part-time jobs to put myself through university. One of them was at the fur-coat storage department at Eaton’s, and just try explaining that to young people. “Fur storage” and “Eaton’s” are concepts equally lost in the mists of time.
Only at the Star would a columnist gaslight their own kid.
I am not sure why the authors of the study failed to mention mass immigration’s role in youth joblessness but I have my suspicions.
Hundreds of children and teens already attending Alberta schools could be ineligible to enroll for free in September as their families’ immigration status hangs in limbo.
Of the nearly 46,000 students in Alberta schools who are temporarily in Canada, data provided to CBC News by some school boards shows that potentially thousands of children and youths’ study permits will expire by Sept. 30, 2026 — the day after Alberta Education takes a headcount to determine each school’s funding.
CBC: Let’s shortchange Canadian kids in favour of foreigners because vibes.
The debate over governments purchasing unsold condominiums is asking the wrong question.
Critics are right to warn against governments becoming the buyer of last resort for failed condominium projects. That would socialize private losses, reward speculation and encourage developers and lenders to take greater risks, knowing taxpayers may absorb them.
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.
OTTAWA — For a fifth consecutive record-breaking year, the number of new immigration cases pouring into Canada’s Federal Court has surged and may exceed 30,000 files in 2026 — nearly five times the volume handled before the pandemic. Among the steepest increases is one that exposes the systemic crisis and illuminates a legal backlash against border enforcement efforts.
Urgent motions to halt deportations have jumped 54 percent in a single year, the court says.
Carney is flooding the zone with crisis after crisis.
Healthcare, food insecurity, the housing shortage, absence of official accountability, policing, foreign influence, Islamist entryism, the unwillingness to protect our borders, with almost all having their root cause linked in whole or in part to the LPC’s criminally exploitive mass immigration scam.
Immigration is supposed to benefit the host nation, in Canada it is used as a weapon by Carney and his profiteers to keep us under heel.
A new book examining far-right extremism in Canada argues the movement has evolved dramatically in the past decade, shifting from small, organized groups to a broader network fuelled by social media, conspiracy theories and political grievances.
In For Blood and Soil: Far-Right Extremism in Canada, researchers Stephanie Carvin and Amarnath Amarasingam trace the movement’s development through some of the country’s most significant violent incidents, including the 2017 Quebec City mosque shooting and the 2021 attack on a Muslim family in London, Ont.
Bad timing to release a race-baiting tome given the Nazi Funding SPLC expose.
The usual suspects are pushing the same racist crap. Anti-immigration? You’re a racist etc.
Then again they probably hoped it would ride the coattails of Carneys attack on free speech.
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.
