CSIS says India is a continued foreign interference threat as Canada renews diplomacy

The latest annual report of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service says Indian officials and their proxy agents in Canada, engage in a range of activities that seek to influence Canadian communities and politicians.

Last year both former prime minister Justin Trudeau and the RCMP linked agents of the Indian government to the 2023 murder of Canadian Sikh-activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. That murder happened two ye

Canadian population growth continued to slow with almost no increase in Q1: StatCan

Statistics Canada says population growth stalled in the first quarter. The agency says the Canadian population rose by 20,107 people from Jan. 1 to April 1 to 41,548,787, the smallest increase since the third quarter of 2020 when it contracted by 1,232 people. It was the sixth consecutive quarter of slower population growth after a decision by the federal government in 2024 to lower the levels of both temporary and permanent immigration. However, immigration still accounted for all of the population growth in the quarter as there were 5,628 more deaths than births in Canada. Canada admitted 10

Panthers beat Oilers, again, to repeat as Stanley Cup champions

Canada may be the home of hockey, but the Stanley Cup is maintaining its residence in the Sunshine State. For the second straight season, the Florida Panthers have extended Canada's Cup drought. And once again, it has come at the expense of the Edmonton Oilers. Sam Reinhart of North Vancouver, B.C., scored four goals, including two into an empty net, as the Panthers claimed their second straight Cup on Tuesday night with a 5-1 win over Edmonton in Game 6 of the NHL's championship series. Either the Panthers or the state-rival Tampa Bay Lightning have appeared in the last six Cup finals, with e

Canada, India agree to name new high commissioners at G7 meeting

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of the G-7 summit today. During the discussion, both countries decided to appoint new High Commissioners. Along with this, regular diplomatic services will be restored for citizens of both countries. Canada expelled six Indian diplomats and consular officials last fall. This decision was taken after law enforcement reported that Indian government agents were involved in a targeted campaign against Canadian citizens. Chinmoy Naik is currently serving as the Acting High Commissioner of India to Canada.

Panthers can clinch a 2nd consecutive Stanley Cup championship by beating the Oilers in Game 6

The Florida Panthers can win the Stanley Cup for the second year in a row by beating the Edmonton Oilers in Game 6 of the final. Their first chance to clinch the franchise's second championship comes at home after a dominant performance in Game 5 at Edmonton. Players say they learned important lessons from failing to close out the Oilers three timesin the final a year ago. Still, the Stanley Cup being in the building is enough to rile up the nerves in what could be the final game of the NHL season.

Prime Minister Mark Carney has said he will call a byelection in the riding as soon as possible.

Indian national wanted in murder case arrested after being refused entry at Canada–U.S. border

U.S. border officials say a 22-year-old Indian national was taken into custody at the Peace Bridge crossing at Fort Erie after Canadian officers refused him entry over the weekend. The case is drawing renewed attention to cross-border screening practices that affect travel between Ontario and Western New York, a corridor frequently used by travellers from Ontario’s South Asian communities. According to a statement from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the man – identified as Vishat Kumar – had previously entered the United States without authorization in 2024 and did not appear for a

Rain and Snow Alerts in Effect as Coastal and Northern B.C. Brace for Strong Weather System

Environment and Climate Change Canada has issued a pair of weather alerts for communities along British Columbia’s north and central coast, warning that a strong frontal system could bring significant rain and heavy mountain snow through the end of the week. The agency says areas from Bella Coola through Kitimat may receive as much as 70 millimetres of rain, raising the risk of water pooling on roads and possible washouts near rivers and creeks. The system is expected to weaken by Friday, but officials caution that changing conditions may still affect travel across coastal corridors. While t

Senate approves citizenship reform for ‘Lost Canadians’ as advocates raise adoption concerns

Federal legislation designed to address long-standing gaps in Canada’s citizenship rules has cleared the Senate and is expected to become law before a court-imposed deadline early next year. The bill aims to resolve cases involving so-called Lost Canadians – individuals born abroad to Canadian parents who were themselves born outside the country and who lost access to citizenship because of restrictive rules adopted in 2009. The changes come after the Ontario Superior Court ruled last year that the previous one-generation limit on citizenship by descent was unconstitutional. Under the upda
