Oil companies are set for $90B in windfall profits while the bottom 40% of Canadians hold just 3% of wealth.

I asked the Liberals for a "Yes or No" on a windfall tax & gas price caps to stop the gouging. They gave me a non-answer about "tools."

Canadians need relief, not "reviews." #cdnpoli

Grocery pricing in Canada is a black box. Giant chains are posting record profits while families skip meals to get by.
I’m standing up for Bill C-226 to bring transparency to the aisles and BAN "surveillance pricing"—digital price gouging. 🛒⚖️ #cdnpoli

I’ve introduced #BillC274 to create a permanent path to citizenship for children in care. We must ensure "aging out" doesn't mean facing deportation.
I urge the Govt to pass this swiftly. ⚖️ #cdnpoli

Huge thanks to 30 Liberal MPs who refused to oppose C-233. Your choice shows that the movement to close Canada's arms export loophole is growing. 🇨🇦

Govt has power to fix it. Don't let up—keep organizing and keep the pressure on. We won't stop until Canada is no longer complicit in war crimes.

Liberals are choosing corporate algorithms over Canadian families.
Yesterday, every party supported our motion to ban surveillance pricing—except Liberals. While they "review" the problem, corporations continue to squeeze family budgets.
Why won't the PM just say YES to a ban? 🛑 #CostOfLiving

Immigration minister’s office defends strict new timelines for refugee claims OTTAWA — Immigration Minister Lena Diab's office is defending new rules that may strike down thousands of refugee claims, saying difficult decisions are required to regain control of Canada's immigrat...

Liberals’ "strict new timelines" are a recipe for systemic failure.
Pushing people fleeing trauma into rushed legal processes doesn't create efficiency—it creates injustice. We need a system built on due process, not arbitrary deadlines that set people up to fail.

10 years since the toxic drug emergency, families are still enduring unimaginable loss. These aren't just stats—they are people whose lives mattered.

We need the same urgency seen in the 90s: safe supply, barrier-free treatment, and a new Vancouver Agreement. 🎗️ #cdnpoli #bcpoli #HarmReduction

Axworthy, Rock call on foreign affairs minister to do more to safeguard arms exports OTTAWA - Former senior Liberal cabinet ministers say they have "deep concern" about the federal government's decision not to pass legislation aiming to close what they consider a regulatory gap

Pressure is mounting on Liberals to stop the excuses and close the gaps in our arms export system.

As reported by CP, former Ministers Lloyd Axworthy & Allan Rock are rebutting claims that current safeguards are sufficient. Close the U.S. loophole.

Liberals claim our arms embargoes are ironclad, but former Ministers Lloyd Axworthy & Allan Rock are calling out a massive "U.S. loophole."

As long as military goods can be shipped via U.S. without permits, our laws are being bypassed. No more excuses—close the loophole. 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli #ArmsEmbargo

It is deeply troubling that Canadian public pensions are being invested in companies linked to ICE operations and migrant detention. Canadians expect their savings to be managed with human dignity—not profiting from repression.

I’m calling for an independent investigation. Accountability now. ⬇️

The RCMP’s "Native extremism program" is a jaw-dropping betrayal. Wiretaps & secret dossiers were used to target leaders fighting for their rights—not security threats.

Feds on track with immigration cuts, but policy’s long-term impacts remain unknown, say observers A PBO report shows that the government is following plans to slow population growth after a recent surge in temporary workers and foreign students, but critics say future effects are not measured, and...

"Immigration policy can't be judged by population projections alone."

PBO report on Liberal immigration cuts misses the real impact on families, healthcare and economy. We need evidence-based planning, not sudden reversals that fuel anti-immigrant sentiment.

PM Mark Carney says "the power of the less powerful starts with honesty."
If he’s honest, he’ll admit that Canada’s arms loophole is a "moral blindness." Yet today, his Minister claimed human rights oversight would “decimate” industry.

The HANSARD doesn't lie. 👇

Today, Liberals, Conservatives, & the Bloc voted to kill #C233. 🚫⚖️

They chose to keep a massive loophole open that exempts 50% of Canada’s arms exports from human rights oversight. The Carney Liberals talk about values, but their actions say otherwise. #cdnpoli #HumanRights

Regulatory oversight is not prohibition. 🛑

Today I addressed the House to clear up the misinformation on #C233. My bill doesn't stop exports; it ensures that ALL military exports—including those to the U.S.—undergo the same human rights assessment.

Conservatives introduce motion to restrict temporary health coverage - iPolitics Opposition party calls on the government to restrict federal benefits received by rejected asylum claimants to emergency life saving health care only.

Conservatives want to strip refugee health care, and Liberals are already forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for medicine.

Denying preventative care doesn't save money—it just pushes people into ERs and costs taxpayers more.

Stop scapegoating. Fix the backlogs.

Where is Canada's immigration minister? Community groups are asking | CBC News Newcomer organizations are expressing concerns about Immigration Minister Lena Diab's availability, and nine Liberal MPs are questioning her place at the cabinet table.

Even Liberal MPs are now admitting what we’ve known for months: the immigration file is in total disarray.

When the Minister is "absent" and "overwhelmed," families stay separated and backlogs grow. Canadians deserve leadership, not more Liberal excuses.

The Liberal government is hiking passport fees again—despite recent service delays. With the cost of living already biting, Canadians need essential ID to be affordable, not more expensive. 🛑

Jimmy Lai, 78, gets 20 years as a prisoner of conscience for defending democracy & press freedom. This is a grave injustice under Beijing’s NSL.
With family in Canada, we must demand his immediate release—or humanitarian medical parole here.
