Harper's Built His Housing Policy On a Weak Foundation
Encouraging Canadians to enter into an exceptionally inflated housing market where two houses are being built for every new person added to the working-age population may well lead to catastrophic results once the market goes into correction -- as it did in the United States in 2008, when that country's ownership rate reached 69 per cent.

What doesn’t qualify as journalism in Canada seems a bit arbitrary – Canadian Dimension
Some media companies have been denied status by Ottawa as a so-called Qualified Canadian Journalism Organization, eligible to claim payroll tax credits from Ottawa’s $595 million news media bailout.

Silencing Dissent: The Conservative Record | CAIDP-RPCDI
Over the past five years, exercise of the fundamental freedom of speech in Canada has been curbed and discouraged by a federal government increasingly intolerant of even the mildest criticism or dissent. Particularly affected have been organizations dependent on government funding which advocate for human rights and women’s equality. Their voices have been stifled, some completely silenced, by cuts to their budgets. Also financially throttled have been individuals and groups that speak out for reproductive rights, humanitarian immigration policies, and for changes in Canada’s foreign policy in the Middle East.

With the resignation of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canadian politics is headed for a shake-up, with observers anticipating a federal election shortly after the Liberals choose their new leader in March. In the polls, Liberal support is at a low ebb with essentially all of that going to the federal Conservatives led by Pierre Poilievre.
