Opposition strives to brew outcry against federal budget bill
Canada’s opposition parties plan to make life difficult for the Harper government and its wide-ranging budget bill, throwing up procedural roadblocks with the hope of splitting up the massive document and drawing public attention to some of its more controversial … Continue reading
Plan to cut inmates’ pay will accomplish nothing
Last week Vic Toews, minister of public safety, announced that the Harper government intends to “restore balance” to the criminal justice system and increase “offender accountability,” by taking measures to reduce the amount of income prisoners can earn while incarcerated. … Continue reading
Plamondon: Harper is the anti-Trudeau
It seems every Canadian political columnist passed judgment on the one-year anniversary of Harper’s majority government. But, oddly enough, the punditry on the man and his vision were all over the map. To some he is an authoritarian with a … Continue reading
McParland: Ottawa’s anti-riot law needs a mask to hide its flaws
The federal Conservatives have developed a disturbingly reflexive tic. They awake in the morning, read something in news that annoys them, and race off to pass a quick law banning or punishing it. They discover Clifford Olsen is receiving pension plan payments, … Continue reading
Coren: NDP unfriendly to Israel
It was only fitting that Israeli president and elder statesman, Shimon Peres, should visit Canada and thank this country for its support of the Jewish state, and by extension its support for democracy and decency in the Middle East. He … Continue reading

New Democrat Party Leader Thomas Mulcair recently showed the true colours of his divisive politics when he compared the impact of the oilsands to the “Dutch disease.” He was referring to the collapse of employment in the Netherlands in the … Continue reading

Ivison: Conservatives risk backlash over inaction on environment
The Harper government sees politics as a constant battle of “sword” and “shield” issues. The Prime Minister wields them like a great lord in Game of Thrones – going on the offensive on “sword” issues; parrying on “shield” issues, where … Continue reading
Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall goes after Mulcair’s oilsands comments on Twitter
REGINA – Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall used Twitter Monday to poke at Thomas Mulcair and comments the federal NDP leader made about resources and the high Canadian dollar. Wall took issue with comments Mulcair made over the weekend while discussing … Continue reading
