Donald Trump

Canadian political leaders expressed shock and dismay at events Wednesday in Washington, D.C., as a violent mob loyal to U.S. President Donald Trump paraded through the Capitol building, stealing items and vandalizing property.

If the least surprising thing in the world is that a mob of Trump extremists would storm the U.S. House and Senate as they met to confirm the president-elect, the most shocking was that it would be so easy, writes Sandy Garossino.

What was supposed to be a historic day in the U.S. capital lived up to that billing for all the wrong reasons Wednesday as an angry throng of Donald Trump supporters managed to overpower police and lay siege to Capitol Hill. 

The battle for control of Capitol Hill came down to the wire on Tuesday, January 5, 20201, as a late surge of votes from Atlanta's suburban outskirts put Democrats within shouting distance of the two remaining seats in the U.S. Senate.

Elections Canada watched as social media posts from Canadians began wondering if the last federal election had been rigged by dubious voting machines.

If Donald Trump has anything in common with Canada, it might be this: a shared craving for the attention of the American people that at times can border on the pathological. 

As America is ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. President Donald Trump squats with his eyes glued to his phone, tweeting. A petulant grin on his face, he seems oblivious to the virus spilling out all around him in this cartoon by Michael de Adder.

Conspiracy theories, including those propagated by the once-fringe QAnon movement, have gained traction as the COVID-19 pandemic fuels fear, social and economic insecurity, and mistrust in authorities, experts in Canada say.

In conversation with Canada’s National Observer on Thursday evening, Mother Jones CEO Monika Bauerlein flagged a tangential result of the past four years of Donald Trump: a deluge of hard-hitting, gobsmacking investigative journalism, Luke Ottenhof writes.

The United States will "work with the world" to distribute COVID-19 vaccines, President Donald Trump vowed on Tuesday, December 8, 2020, even as he signed an order aimed at putting Americans at the head of the line.

Critics of Canada's most controversial cross-border pipeline projects aren't taking their demise for granted under president-elect Joe Biden.

President-elect Joe Biden's new climate envoy may be the same person who nixed the Keystone XL pipeline expansion in 2015, but the project itself has evolved significantly since then, Canada's U.S. ambassador said on Tuesday, November 24, 2020.

To the atmosphere, this year’s “return to nature” — a silver lining for some amid a deadly virus — was virtually meaningless.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will pitch the economic benefits of fighting climate change and doing business with Canada as he meets with counterparts from both sides of the Pacific during today’s, November 20, 2020, Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation leaders’ summit.

U.S. president-elect Joe Biden’s win gives the globe a better chance of averting climate catastrophe, but major obstacles remain.
