B.C. Conservative MLA Bruce Banman Leaves Party, Will Sit as Independent

B.C. Conservative MLA for Abbotsford-South Bruce Banman has left the party and announced that he will sit as an independent member in the legislature.

Quebec Election Campaign Heats Up as Trump and Trade War Take Centre Stage

Quebec’s provincial election campaign has officially heated up ahead of the October 5 vote, with U.S. President Donald Trump and the ongoing Canada-U.S. trade war emerging as major campaign issues. The focus on international economic tensions has, at least for now, pushed traditional provincial issues and the independence referendum debate further into the background. Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) Leader and Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette launched her campaign by portraying Trump as her party’s “real adversary.” She argued that Trump’s tariffs and economic policies pose a seri

Canada’s economy grew at an annualized rate of 3.3% in the second quarter of 2026, marking its strongest quarterly expansion since early 2023 and easing concerns that the country could slip into a technical recession.
