It is with profound sadness that the Canadian Armed Forces confirms the death of a fifth soldier who was receiving medical care in Ontario following the tragic incident that occurred at CFB Wainwright on October 17, 2026. canada.ca/en/department-nati…

What a goof. Quebec is not a country and all of those letters #PSPP sent to foreign politicians are rightfully going to be filed into the garbage bin upon receipt.

Updated World Rankings following wins by @TeamMDunstone and Team Isabella Wrana at this past weekend's Grand Slam event.
A lot of negativity around this but I actually think this can be positive. There is a giant opportunity for Roshel to scale and to partner with other companies to produce world class military hardware, equipment and vehicles. Dont mourn Stellantis, look at the opportunity ahead.

The United States coordinated this action closely with Canada, including Canada’s financial intelligence unit, FINTRAC. It reflects our shared commitment to protecting the North American financial system from abuse. Several of the designated businesses also laundered proceeds from drug trafficking, which shows how the same illicit networks serve both Iran and criminal organizations that threaten the safety of our communities. We will keep working with Canada and other international partners to expose these networks, shut them down, and make sure no country becomes a refuge for people who finance terrorism and evade sanctions.

Good conversation with President @realDonaldTrump on the future of Canada-U.S. trade.
This builds on our recent constructive discussions on the outlines of a mutually beneficial trade deal that would create jobs for our workers, boost affordability for families, and fully respect Canada’s languages, culture, and sovereignty.
Our teams will now be working in the coming weeks to deliver that outcome.
Si Lucien Bouchard est à la table mais que PSPP ne l'est pas, nous savons qu'il ne s'agit que de politique et non d'un véritable grief.
If Lucien Bouchard is at the table but PSPP is not, we know it’s just politics not a real grievance. #Quebec

Solution. No more foreign visits to Quebec.
Solution. Plus de visites à l'étranger au Québec.
@BlocQuebecois @partiquebecois
Mark Carney est en désaccord complet avec TOUS les partis de l’Assemblée nationale du Québec. Il doit immédiatement se raviser et permettre au premier ministre du Québec de s’adresser aux personnes qui visitent le Québec

When the G7 was held in Alberta last year, Smith was invited to the events but was not given a platform to speak. That platform rests rightfully with the PM who is the representative of Canada for all foreign relations. PSPP needs to remember his place as a provincial Premier.

Independence Referendums in Canadian History:
1980 Quebec: 60% No, 40% Yes
1995 Quebec: 50.58% No, 49.42% Yes
2026 Alberta: 76% No, 24% Yes (as of this writing)
Referendums To Join Canada:
1948 Newfoundland: 52.34% Yes, 47.66% No.
76% is a decisive result. Alberta will remain in Canada. Now the work must continue to repair the damaged relationship that caused this referendum to happen in the first place. 24% lost hope. We need to prove to all Albertans that Canada can work so this never happens again.
Much of Alberta has rejected holding a second, formal referendum on separatism and would rather remain part of Canada.
