The Liberals will spend 5% of Canada's GDP on defence. That's a greater share than the US spends to maintain over 800 military bases and engage in foreign wars. The PBO estimates this target will cost Canadian taxpayers $159 billion a year. How do the Liberals plan to pay for it?

Don and the NDP once again secure funding for a Filipino Community and Cultural Centre in Vancouver.
The Liberals’ decision to repeal the Underused Housing Tax makes no sense. This measure was meant to curb foreign speculation in Canada's housing market and raise nearly $700M for public priorities. Scrapping it means giving up an important tool for addressing the housing crisis.
The Liberals' AI strategy proposes massive expansion of AI with no concern for the consequences it will have on workers, youth, privacy, and our water and energy supply. The NDP is calling for a humans-first AI strategy that protects Canadian jobs, data and natural resources.
New Democrats have outlined clear priorities ahead of the Nov. 4 budget. Canada needs substantial investment to create good jobs, build affordable housing, and strengthen public healthcare. Now is not the time for austerity—the NDP won’t support a budget that takes that approach.
The Carney Liberals are selling off Canada’s ports and airports. After Heathrow was privatized, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and China gained major stakes in the airport. Canadians deserve a full national security review before foreign state-owned entities are given control of our strategic infrastructure.
Canadians are struggling with the sky-high cost of daily essentials—and the situation is getting worse. The latest inflation data shows grocery prices up 4%, rent up 4.8% nationally and 9.6% in Quebec. The upcoming federal budget must deliver real solutions to Canada's cost-of-living crisis.
Most Canadians agree that we should ban surveillance pricing, and the rest want it strictly regulated. Yet the Liberal government doesn’t even acknowledge the problem. In fact, they’ve doubled down on AI, letting corporations use your personal data to charge you more.
Budgets reveal values. Mark Carney's budget demands sacrifices from working families—by slashing services and cutting frontline jobs—while giving the ultra-wealthy a tax break on luxury yachts and private jets. What value(s) does that represent?
Canadians are struggling to make ends meet — yet this budget offers no real relief. Families can’t wait for promises. They need help now. #cdnpoli #Budget2025
Canadians voted for an elbows-up approach to deal with the US. But since the election, the Liberals have repeatedly caved in to Trump’s demands. Canadians deserve a government that keeps their promises.
Jen Gerson: "The momentum here right now is on the side of people who treat the idea of the Republic of Alberta as a kind of religious movement. It's a millenarian movement ... heavily influenced by the kind of nihilism that infects a lot of the broader MAGA movement."

We are cleaning up the e-bike mess. 🧹 Hundreds of people have written to me about dockless e-bikes clogging pavements. Badly parked e-bikes like these are a real nuisance for pedestrians and cyclists, and for people with disabilities or additional mobility needs, they can block homes and streets.
