There is a motley crew of Canadian cretins who still insist that if you don't toe the GOP line, you're somehow carrying water for Beijing.
Maybe I want nothing to do with a foreign faction trying to undermine my own country's territorial integrity.
A Michigan delegation travelled to Calgary to sell separatists on software developed for Republicans to get out the vote – and how it could be used to wrench Alberta from Confederation.
For David Parker, an organizer for Alberta separation, the software was the path to victory – one that ultimately resulted in a massive privacy breach involving the sensitive personal data of nearly three million Albertans.
But Parker’s embrace of the Michigan delegation is evidence of a pattern: separatist factions in Alberta eager to engage the U.S. in their plans for secession, and American actors willing to assist, either privately or openly.
Through interviews with The Globe on both sides of the border, people involved in politics, the corporate sector and Alberta’s pursuit of separatism have described persistent efforts by figures in the U.S. administration and conservative political establishment to support groups seeking American expansionism and independence for Alberta.

In this article, Geoffrey S. Moyse, KC, a retired senior B.C. lawyer who advised six successive provincial governments on Aboriginal law opines that B.C.’s implementation of UNDRIP and DRIPA is moving beyond consultation toward Indigenous consent, co-governance and financial participation over vast areas of the province—often through agreements negotiated behind closed doors. He raises some important questions about where Aboriginal title ends and claimed “traditional territory” begins, and what legal authority the province is actually transferring.
Geoffrey Moyse: What lurks behind the ‘rent-seeking’ reconciliation industry?
"It is past time that the B.C. public looks into the ideological agenda being foisted upon them by their government."

Not surprising.
Some things in Canada never change, such as Prairie residents being reluctant or unable to terminate cross-border commerce.
This was the case in Laurier's Liberal Party, and continues today with whichever party has their base in the West.
% of Canadians who are avoiding American products (by Vote in 2025):
New Democratic Party (NDP) – 76%
Liberal Party – 71%
Conservative Party – 46%

Just so you know, @CTVVancouver deliberately chose three stories for the three parties.
There were plenty of policy announcements from the Conservatives to highlight. Instead, they chose this tertiary, inside baseball.
Never change CTV.

Local workers, local business, local traditions.
Local, local, local.
I am more in favour of diversity that the capital-m Multiculturalists, who want everything to look like, sound and act like mini-Torontos.
And again, I don't dislike Toronto.

If you find yourself having to choose between Tim Hortons and Starbucks, consider the following,
1) Tim Hortons is a Brazilian-American enterprise serving coffee so weak or rancid that it requires two creams and two sugars just to make it palatable. A significant proportion of their branches are staffed overwhelmingly by temporary foreign workers.
They do all of this while wrapping themselves in Canadian iconography, trying to dupe you into believing that buying a substandard product is an act of culinary patriotism.
2) Starbucks is an American chain serving bitter but perfectly drinkable coffee that can be enjoyed black without immediate regret. The vast majority of their Canadian branches are staffed by local teenagers and university students.
Crucially, they don't pretend to be 'Elbows Up'.
One of these multinational corporations clearly does more for Canadians.
Choose wisely, though, naturally, your local independent cafe should always come first.

Reasonable Yank.
I am ensconced in Toronto. My French-Canadian brothers need to shed the drivel of the Quiet Revolution, and regain the “amour save du trone et de l’autel” spoken of in the original lyrics of “O Canada;” The Anglo-Canadians need to regain their sense of self; Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK need CANZUK if they are to survive; and CANZUK needs a strong Monarch at the centre of it if it is to be effective - or they can just all relax and enjoy longterm absorption by their neighbours.

There's a couple of good ones left, but the BC Press Gallery is mostly gone. That makes it much easier for the incumbent, and has locked in some NDP sympathetic over-the-hill reporters who would have naturally been pushed out.
Change can't come soon enough.
Predictable dross from the @globeandmail's BC columnist.
An entire column not on the BC NDP's meltdown, or on the BC Conservatives amazing turnaround, but on what *could* go wrong for the Conservative campaign.
"I can't yet find an angle on which to attack to the Conservatives, but if they screwup, here's what I'll say."
Some first rate analysis there.
