Addiction can change the course of a young person’s life, but it should never define their future. Bill C-231 is about compassion, hope and giving youth struggling with addiction another chance. The bill would give youth justice courts greater ability to delay sentencing so a young person can participate in a substance-use treatment program, and […]
Canada has the resources the world needs, but we continue to put roadblocks in the way of getting them to market. The war in the Middle East and disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz have exposed just how vulnerable global energy markets are. Expanding our energy exports would strengthen our economy, support the Canadian dollar, […]
Grocery prices are up nearly 35% since 2019, with the average family now spending around $10,000 a year on groceries. Meanwhile, severely food-insecure households have doubled to over half a million, and food banks are seeing record demand. Instead of delivering relief to farmers, the Liberals have added more bureaucracy, increased deficits, and driven up […]
Everyone deserves a path forward. Recovery is possible, and every Canadian deserves the opportunity to break the cycle of addiction and build a better future. That’s the goal behind Bill C-240. This bill would give judges the ability to include rehabilitative measures as part of a sentence, helping address the root causes of addiction, mental […]
The $750 million gun confiscation program is targeting the wrong people. While law-abiding, licensed firearms owners are targeted, most firearms used in violent crime are illegally smuggled across the border and used by repeat violent offenders. After years of Liberal policies, violent gun crime has risen while mandatory jail time for serious gun offences has […]
Canada’s immigration system was once the gold standard under the Harper government. It was fair, secure, and built on enforcing the rules. After a decade of mismanagement, that reputation has been eroded. The Auditor General uncovered more than 153,000 suspected cases of international student permit fraud, yet the Liberals still can’t explain how many of […]
It was about giving the Liberals more power to police what Canadians could say. Existing laws already made it illegal to promote hatred and incite violence. Instead of enforcing them, the government removed longstanding protections for religious expression, expanded vague definitions, and even shut down debate in Parliament to force the bill through. Conservatives will […]
Instead of providing clear and consistent protection for private property rights, they have created confusion through shifting legal positions, closed-door agreements, and a failure to give homeowners and investors confidence in the security of their land. When property rights become unclear, the consequences are real: financing dries up, investment slows, and families begin to question […]
Disturbing reports show baggage tag-switching schemes, RCMP arrests at Pearson, and innocent travellers allegedly caught up in drug smuggling operations without even knowing it. At least 17 innocent travellers have already been detained, and more cases may still be undetected. Yet despite repeated warnings, arrests, and victims coming forward, the current government doesn’t seem particularly […]
The Liberals claimed the streaming tax was “imaginary” and “fake.” They said we were wrong and insisted there was nothing Cabinet could do. Now? They’re scrambling to reverse course after getting caught. The government’s streaming tax was always going to mean higher costs for everyone, less investment, fewer jobs, and more trade headaches with the […]
