Canada’s Opposition Leader, Pierre Poilievre, has urged the Trudeau government to address recent threats from former US President Donald Trump. Poilievre condemned Trump’s remarks targeting Canada’s steel and aluminum industries, calling them intolerable and demanding a firm government response.

Responding to Trump’s suggestion of making Canada the 51st state, Poilievre declared, “Canada is a proud, sovereign, and independent country and always will be.”

The Conservative leader criticized Trudeau and former Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney, asserting that Canadians are strong and will not bow to external pressure. Poilievre emphasized that a Conservative government under his leadership would prioritize Canada’s interests above all.

Former PM Harper blasts Liberal leadership candidate Carney's economic record

Former prime minister Stephen Harper is taking shots at Liberal leadership frontrunner Mark Carney's economic record. Harper accuses Carney of taking unearned credit for steering the Canadian economy out of the global financial crisis more than 15 years ago. While Harper appointed Carney to run the Bank of Canada at the beginning of the 2008 financial crisis, he says it was then-finance minister Jim Flaherty who made the "hard calls." Harper makes the attacks in a letter attached to a Conservative Party fundraising email. He argues that Carney does not have experience with managing the Canadia

The budget will also serve as a major test for Premier David Eby, who made ambitious campaign promises during the election. Eby pledged that his BC NDP government would build new hospitals, expand rapid transit, and invest in schools if re-elected. However, the looming tariffs and the pressure to address the province’s $9.4 billion deficit suggest that these promises may not feature prominentl
