The bid for a major federal submarine contract that could have provided Algoma Steel in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., with additional infrastructure and hundreds of new jobs was unsuccessful.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to announce this afternoon that German shipbuilder ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) has won the right to build a multibillion-dollar fleet of 12 submarines for Canada’s defence.

Tyler Robinson, the man accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, is scheduled to appear in court on Monday for a preliminary hearing, where prosecutors will present their evidence to a judge over the course of five days. The judge will then determine whether there is sufficient cause for the case to advance to trial, a process similar to a grand jury indictment.

OTTAWA — Days before a parliamentary committee decides whether to investigate the Carney government’s multibillion-dollar Vancouver condo bailout, the market-intelligence unit of Bob Rennie, the Carney fundraiser at the center of the controversy, has published data suggesting Ottawa and Victoria would be catching a falling knife with public money — or, in the view of critics, halting a correction that would benefit generations of young homebuyers, before Vancouver’s market is allowed to approach standard measures of affordability.
In the 2015 film Look Who’s Back, Adolf Hitler, upon shooting himself, finds that he is not dead but transported 70 years into the future. As the Führer explores the new Germany, he becomes a popular sensation with everyone believing him to be a man trying to make a statement. When asked which of the current parties he would support, Hitler replies that it would be the Green Party, much to the audience’s amusement.
After a closely fought battle between Germany’s TKMS and South Korea’s Hanwha Ocean to build the next generation of submarines for Canada, the federal government has selected a preferred bidder.
Ottawa has chosen TKMS, The Globe and Mail reported on Monday. Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to make the official announcement later in the day in Halifax.
The furious Palestinian reaction to the recent declaration by the so-called “Board of Peace” — that the United Nations Relief and Work Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) “has no place in the new Gaza Strip” — has once again exposed a fundamental truth that many in the international community continue to ignore: for the Palestinians, UNRWA is not just a humanitarian agency. It is a political institution that keeps alive the dream of the so-called “right of return” — a demand that, by overwhelming Israel’s population of roughly 10 million with millions of supposed “refugees” — would effectively bring about the end of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people.
Jason Stanley, left-wing professor and author of How Fascism Works, fled to Canada to escape President Trump, yet somehow feels compelled to appear on TV to bash his abandoned home. He made another appearance on PBS on Amanpour & Co just in time to mark America’s 250th anniversary, in order to declare his previous home is a Nazi state under Trump and Republican control.
Donald Trump said on Monday that he personally asked Fifa president Gianni Infantino to review the red card shown to USA striker Folarin Balogun, saying he believed the dismissal was unfair but insisting he did not pressure football’s governing body to overturn the suspension.
The intervention by the president of a World Cup host nation has thrust Fifa’s disciplinary process into the spotlight and prompted an angry response from Belgium, who face the USA on Monday night for a place in the quarter-finals.
Jan Maracewicz says he wanted to express his frustrations about the exorbitant costs of the World Cup this year. As he was carrying a sign at Exhibition Place commenting on FIFA’s “greed,” the retiree was arrested and charged with trespassing.
“I think I had the right to express my opinion. It wasn’t vulgar, it was peaceful, it wasn’t inciting any violence,” Maracewicz told CTV News Toronto in an interview.
FIFA is a scam.
Marine Le Pen will find out on Tuesday whether or not she can run for the French presidency in next year’s elections, when a Paris appeal court decides at 13:30 (11:30 GMT) whether to uphold an embezzlement conviction against her.
Le Pen, the 57-year-old leader of National Rally, has already run for president three times and came second to Emmanuel Macron in 2022 and 2017.
With under 10 months to go before the vote, she leads in the polls. If she does not run, her young lieutenant, Jordan Bardella, will stand in her place, so the verdict could have far-reaching consequences for France.
Donald Trump knows the game. When a New York Times, RealClearPolling aggregate of twelve independent polls shows his approval at 39 per cent, he doesn’t hesitate. He dismisses the ones he doesn’t like as fake, and insists the real numbers are fantastic, spectacular: “MY REAL POLL NUMBERS ARE THE HIGHEST THEY HAVE EVER BEEN. THANK YOU!!! President DJT.”
It’s a coherent fiction, implausible but coherent.
Doug Ford can’t even do that.
Frequently, a holiday can save a movie. After a slow start, a three or four-day weekend can swoop in and rescue a title that faltered out of the gate. We see this a lot around Christmas. More people are off from work, so more people go to the movies. This isn’t rocket science.
I see this film working if it’s rejigged as a 70’s porn flick.
U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra says the Trump administration has not met with Alberta separatists, nor discussed any potential financial support for an independent Alberta, directly contradicting claims made by prominent separatists.
“No, we’re not meeting with the separatists and strategizing this at all,” Hoekstra told Global News.
