With less than two weeks until Election Day on April 28, a palpable sense of hope and momentum is sweeping back across Canada. After a decade of Liberal mismanagement, voters are ready to reclaim their Canadian dream.
At the National Citizens Coalition, we’re witnessing a groundswell of support for a shared vision that prioritizes prosperity, integrity, and a proud, self-respecting future — a vision starkly at odds with a faltering, embittered, gerontocratic Liberal campaign.
MONTREAL — Liberal leader Mark Carney says pipelines are “not necessarily” the large projects his government would prioritize to deal with the “crisis” of the trade war with the United States.
On Sunday, both Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre were interviewed on Tout le monde en parle, a very popular televised Quebec talk show on Radio-Canada.
By elevating Mark Carney during a prorogued Parliament, the Liberal Party once again reveals its uneasy relationship with democratic transparency. This was not a moment of open debate or public contest but rather a stage-managed affair, choreographed behind closed doors while the people’s forum remained still and silent.
One is reminded of a previous Liberal pageant: the quiet return of Michael Ignatieff, summoned — by his own admission — by ‘the men in black’ to rescue the nation. Like Carney, he was neither elected nor tested in the crucible of open contest; instead, he was installed and anointed in the shadows. One emerged under the cover of prorogation, while the other did so through the discreet rituals of Liberal backroom diplomacy.

Barring a reversal of fortune, Liberal Leader Mark Carney saved the bacon of Canada’s natural broadcasting corporation when he announced that, should he remain prime minister after April 28, his government would not only keep the Crown corporation alive, it would raise its allowance until it reaches levels similar to those in Britain, Germany and France.
The federal Liberal government is belatedly trying to fix a housing affordability crisis it created though immigration policies which caused population growth to far exceed Canada’s capacity to build new homes to accommodate it, according to a new Fraser Institute study.
“Despite unprecedented levels of immigration-driven population growth following the COVID-19 pandemic, Canada has failed to ramp up homebuilding sufficiently to meet housing demand,” said Steven Globerman, co-author of the study, “The Crisis in Housing Affordability: Population Growth and Housing Starts 1972-2024.”
Demand for the services of local food banks has never been higher, and Carolyn McLeod-McCarthy of the Guelph Food Bank says she’s worried about the impact U.S. tariffs will have on the local economy and workers.
“We’re quite nervous about what that’s going to mean for being able to provide food to people in need,” McLeod-McCarthy told CBC News.
She said the southern Ontario food bank is seeing more people needing help than ever before.
Earlier this month, former Reform Party leader Preston Manning sparked controversy with a Globe and Mail op-ed warning that electing a Liberal government headed by Mark Carney would pose a serious threat to Canada’s national unity.
“Voters, particularly in central and Atlantic Canada, need to recognize that a vote for the Carney Liberals is a vote for Western secession—a vote for the breakup of Canada as we know it,” he wrote. “The next prime minister of Canada, if it remains Mark Carney, would then be identified in the history books, tragically and needlessly, as the last prime minister of a united Canada.”
Canada’s new immigration curbs have slowed increases in population, but government projections of near-zero growth over the next two years are likely “off the mark,” said an economist with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.
“The housing crisis of the last decade was in many ways a planning issue as under-counting of population growth has resulted in a suboptimal increase in housing supply,” he said in the report. “We fear that we are in a process of repeating past mistakes.”
The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation has formally severed its relationship with the Trudeau family, concluding a chapter marked by controversy over foreign donations.
Blacklock’s Reporter says while a 15-month federal audit found no wrongdoing in the handling of a $140,000 gift linked to Beijing interests, the foundation announced it has completely restructured its leadership and governance to preserve its independence.

If the Liberals’ basic campaign strategy was to transfer Justin Trudeau’s politics into a new, less objectionable host — less objectionable to some, anyway — then they can only be said to be knocking it out of the park.
Nothing has noticeably changed back at HQ with respect to their communications strategy: Trump, abortion, gun control, all the greatest hits are on shuffle. Carney spouts nonsense somewhat differently than Justin Trudeau did, but the nonsense comes just and thick and fast: About whom he’s met in the past , about the name of the Montreal school where 14 women were slaughtered in December 1989 , about his involvement with Brookfield when it relocated its headquarters to the United States .
OTTAWA — Canadian intelligence reported in 2021 that Beijing planned to interfere in Canada’s next federal election with disinformation suggesting the Conservatives “will follow the path of … Donald Trump”—a narrative now echoed in a clandestine dirty tricks operation exposed inside Prime Minister Mark Carney’s campaign.
The warning comes from a classified CSIS bulletin dated December 20, 2021 and marked Secret, distributed to Canadian departments including Global Affairs Canada, the Privy Council Office, the Communications Security Establishment, and Five Eyes intelligence partners. The report was based on information from Chinese consular officials in Canada.

Are the Liberals seriously trying to win over convicted criminals by targeting Conservative crime policies?

As the U.S. goes head-to-head with China in an unforeseen trade battle that will raise the cost of almost everything south of the border, many Canadians are wondering what it means for their wallets.
While experts worry about the Canadian economy slowing down, and many predict global costs are headed up due to Donald Trump’s tariffs, some argue Canadian prices on electronics, clothing, food, appliances and other consumer products will not immediately skyrocket as a result.
In fact, RBC is currently predicting that inflation at the end of 2025 will remain close to the Bank of Canada’s target of two per cent.
OTTAWA — Liberal Leader Mark Carney said on Monday he was “unaware” that Liberal staffers had planted some fake Trump-style buttons at a conservative conference last week but nonetheless apologized for this “unreservedly” on behalf on his campaign.
This statement reads like a caricature of Liberal arrogance.
All they needed to say was: "The actions carried out by a couple of our staffers were clearly unacceptable and our party has since severed ties with them. We could like to apologize to the attendees of the CSFN" https://t.co/v0MHnvykir

Nepean Conservative candidate Barbara Bal has filed a report with Ottawa police about the alleged destruction and theft of hundreds of her election signs.
In an online post, Bal accuses Liberal Party campaign workers of using her marked wooden stakes on signs for Liberal candidate Mark Carney, the party leader who’s contesting his first-ever election in Nepean.
