Between bad trade calls and looming deficits, Canada is driving money out just when it needs it most.
Canadians voted for relative continuity in April, but investors voted with their wallets, moving $124 billion out of the country.

Mark Carney announced his “ambitious goal” to double “non-U.S. exports” on Wednesday night, but he didn’t mean it, and no one should take it as a serious government objective, no matter how many professorial hand gestures the prime minister makes.
There is a relatively straightforward way for Canada to increase non-U.S. exports — by clearing the way for the construction of pipelines to both coasts, as well as building LNG export terminals. But Carney shows little sign of being interested in what Canada actually has to offer, only in the ways he can exert greater control over the economy.

For weeks, Canadians were told, confidently, smugly, that the $15 billion handed to Stellantis and Volkswagen was protected by “job clauses” and “performance-based contracts.” That’s the line Industry Minister Mélanie Joly repeated in interviews, press releases, and on social media. It’s a lie.
Yesterday, we sat down with former Member of Parliament Rick Perkins one of the few people who actually read the unredacted contracts in question and he laid it out plainly: those job guarantees don’t exist. Not in the way you were told. Not even close.

With Canada’s auto sector already under assault from U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs, the $52.5 billion the federal and provincial governments have earmarked to create a domestic electric vehicle supply chain industry in Canada have become an albatross around taxpayers’ necks.

Before Gary Anandasangaree became Canada’s public safety minister, his riding office repeatedly asked government officials about the immigration application of a female Tamil Tigers member, according to court records.
The immigration file of Rajini Rajmanoharan shows Anandasangaree’s staff made three inquiries about her case to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) between 2019 and 2020.

Anand says Canada is in a ‘strategic partnership’ with China
OTTAWA – Just three years after Canada called China a “disruptive global power,” Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand says Canada now views Beijing as a strategic partner in a dangerous world.
Anand told The Canadian Press on Monday that a strategic partnership with China means going beyond allowing individual irritants to strain the entire relationship and permitting Canada to advance its economic and security interests.

The total number of home invasions in the Toronto area has doubled in the year to date, local police say.
Headlines about homeowners being charged with aggravated assault for defending their families against armed intruders has sparked a wave of middle class panic.
Organized crime has concluded that violent break-ins committed by hired juvenile hoodlums is a lucrative and low-risk pursuit.

Canada stinks. Concentration camp/genocide stinks. They just want you to know that. And I’m not ranting about some unhinged radicals, or communist Chinese influencers. These calls are coming from inside the house.
The invaluable Blacklock’s Reporter, which avoids “experts say” or “sources say” for “documents say” journalism, reveals that “Cabinet in a briefing note likened Chinese concentration camps to Canada’s Indian Residential School system. Diplomats privately told Chinese Communist Party officials ‘not to repeat Canada’s past mistakes,’ said the document.”

A Conservative MP says the case of a gender transition critic who was told by a co-panellist her remarks could constitute “hate” speech shows how codifying such definitions into law is creating an atmosphere that could lead to censorship.

The Grits are gunning for an election.
With the NDP leaderless, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre still facing a leadership review, and the Green Party having yet to identify Elizabeth May’s long-lost replacement, Prime Minister Mark Carney wants to jump the shark and get his majority before the tsunami of bad economic news gets even worse.
Don’t take my word for it. Just listen to what Government House Leader Steven MacKinnon is saying.

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canadians should be ready for some “challenges” and “sacrifices” in a speech outlining some of his government’s priorities for the upcoming federal budget.
Carney touted that his government is preparing to “build a stronger economy” against the backdrop of “a more dynamic, a more competitive, a more hostile world.”
“If we don’t act now, the pressures will only grow,” he said in an address to university students in Ottawa on Wednesday night.
Carney says Budget 2025 is about making life affordable, getting immigration under control and helping newcomers succeed.
Meanwhile, those of us who've lived here all our lives are getting gouged by taxes as services crumble.

Canada’s immigration department does not collect information on how many migrants are in the country illegally, Deputy Immigration Minister Harpreet Kochhar says.
“We do count through Stats Canada, the census, but we would not have any estimation of those who do not have a particular status in Canada,” Kochhar testified at the House of Commons Immigration Committee on Oct. 21, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.

Mark Carney and his finance minister, François-Philippe Champagne, have been dialling up expectations for the budget coming in less than two weeks.
So it was a surprise on Tuesday to hear another cabinet member dialling things way down — even raising the prospect that the budget might fail.
“What I’m seeing in Parliament worries me,” said Steven MacKinnon, the Government House Leader. He was talking about the growing sense he’s getting that the Conservatives and the Bloc Québécois might be willing to trigger an election to vote down the budget.
Liberal House leader Steve MacKinnon signalled Tuesday that he’s concerned the government’s budget might not get support from the opposition benches, while at the same time dismissing some demands other parties have laid out.
The Liberal government will need the co-operation of at least one other party in order to pass the budget, which is being tabled on Nov. 4. Because the budget is a confidence vote, Canadians could be facing another election if it doesn’t pass.
“When I see opposition parties ruling out the possibility of voting for the budget, that’s starting to worry me,” MacKinnon told reporters on Parliament Hill.

Does Canada need a prime minister engaged at home with his ministers to solve the myriad problems our country faces or a globe-trotting spokesmodel?
Mark Carney has spent a significant amount of time since he was sworn into office a little over seven months ago anywhere but here. He has travelled to France, U.K. twice, U.S. three times, Italy, Vatican City, Belgium, Netherlands, Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Latvia, Mexico and Egypt.
