Elections Canada says more than 19.2M voters cast a ballot in federal election

Elections Canada says more than 67 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot in the federal election more than 19.2 million people. While this election was widely expected to see increased turnout, it did not surpass the record set in March 1958, when 79.4 per cent of eligible electors voted. But turnout was higher than in the last federal election, when 62.6 per cent of eligible voters headed to the polls. With votes still being counted, voter turnout still has some room to climb. The Liberal party is currently leading with 43.6 per cent of the total vote and is set to hold 168 seats, while t

British Columbia Premier David Eby says his government will launch an independent commission into the Vancouver festival attack that killed 11 people and a public inquiry if the criminal case doesn't provide answers the public is looking for. Eby says the commission will have a "quick turn around" to get full answers for organizers of events and festivals in the province by June. He says he wants the public to be able to "gather and celebrate" over the summer without feeling unsafe. The premier says if it weren't for the police investigation and upcoming criminal trial, his government would al

Alberta Premier Smith congratulates Carney, warns him against future 'hostile acts'

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has delivered a note of congratulations along with a sharply worded warning and a blanket condemnation to Prime Minister Mark Carney and his new Liberal government.

Smith says she will see about steps to shield Alberta from what she calls “hostile acts” from Ottawa, adding the Liberals and NDP have “demeaned and demonized Albertans” for political gain. The Liberals were returned to power in M

Trump says that between 1870-1913, America's revenue mainly came from tariffs and during this time the country was very rich. He claims that America is earning 2 to 3 billion dollars daily due to tariffs. It is also being said that Trump may red

Quebec sovereigntist party cheers on possible referendum in Alberta

The leader of the sovereigntist Parti Québécois is throwing his support behind a possible referendum in Alberta, saying Premier Danielle Smith is standing up for her province. Paul St-Pierre Plamondon says Smith has used the possibility of a referendum to give her province leverage as she makes demands of the federal government. He says Smith has done more to defend her province's autonomy than Quebec Premier François Legault, who promised not to hold a referendum on sovereignty before he was first elected in 2018. Plamondon says provinces have the right to consult their population on the q
