At a recent skilled trades announcement in Ottawa, Pierre Poilievre was asked about Mark Carney’s decision to add Century Initiative co-founder Mark Wiseman to his list of advisors on Canada-U.S. relations. Poilievre responded by condemning what he described as the “radical, globalist ideology of uncontrolled population growth” driven by “corporate elites” to suppress wages. He […]
In the midst of what I like to call the “faux patriotism” sweeping across the country in response to President Trump’s admittedly ridiculous tariffs on Canada, Hudson’s Bay – the single most iconic Canadian business, well…ever – is almost certainly about to become nothing but a memory in the minds of Canadians, barring a miracle.
