There has been an earthquake in politics after the arrest of Aam Aadmi Party supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Minister Harjot Singh Bains, who is protesting in Delhi, has been detained by the police.

While talking to the journalists earlier, Harjot Bains said that if the assembly elections and parliament elections can be contested sitting in jail, then the government can also be run.

Harjot Singh Bains said that he is also a lawyer. The constitution of this country provides that every citizen, even if he is in jail but the punishment is not severe, he can be elected as MLA and M.P. allows contesting elections, then the government can be run from jail. Bains said that state religion can be practiced even while sitting in jail.

B.C. Conservatives Promise $1,000 Annual Tax Cut for Low- and Middle-Income Families

B.C. Conservative Leader Lorne Doerkson has announced a proposed $1,000 annual provincial income-tax cut for low- and middle-income families. Speaking at a grocery store in Surrey, Doerkson said that if elected premier, his government would raise the provincial basic personal income-tax exemption to $32,000. He said this would mean British Columbians would pay no provincial income tax on their first $32,000 of income. Doerkson said a two-income household could save up to $2,000 a year under the proposal, with the money remaining in families’ pockets rather than going to the government. He al

Bill C-39 Faces Vote in House of Commons Amid Strike Powers Controversy

Canada’s House of Commons is set to vote today on the federal government’s controversial Bill C-39, which aims to fast-track approvals for major projects.

NDP parliamentary leader Don Davies has called the bill an attack on workers’ and Indigenous rights, as well as environmental protections. He said he is concerned about a growing trend of power being concentrated in the hands of cabi
