Justin Trudeau

The federal government has announced new support measures for communities impacted by B.C. wildfires, but some residents wonder whether federal action should have come much sooner.

Justin Trudeau's twin objectives to reduce Canada's carbon emissions and build a pipeline to carry oilsands bitumen to the coast collided Wednesday in a province ravaged by wildfires that the prime minister's own government attributes to climate change.

The Conservative Party’s immigration critic said Wednesday that she drew attention to some of the views of a far-right activist who used intolerant language — without hearing what the woman had actually shouted during a testy exchange last week with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Given that she belonged to a social media group that openly discussed plans to attend last week's event, it is unlikely the prime minister's security detail or PMO officials were taken by surprise, he added.

Transparent would not be the word to describe the Trudeau government's decision to water down its carbon tax. The changes were posted on a ministry website as a “technical backgrounder.” Oh, come on, the fate of the earth deserves better.

Justin Trudeau will run again in the 2019 federal election.

After a week of internal caucus squabbles, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer will try to refocus the spotlight on trying to convince Canadians his party is a government-in-waiting.

"Wildfire smoke is so thick in Prince George, it looks like night, after the sun has risen." That's a quote from Global News. Evacuations, damaged health, Beijing-like fog, nightmarish infernos. Welcome to the new normal.

Maxime Bernier's immigrant bashing wouldn’t be so offensive and worrisome if it were coming from some marginal political figure, but this isn’t some random, fringe member of the Conservative Party. He has been a long-standing member of Parliament, representing the Quebec riding of Beauce, has served in Harper’s administration for years, and came in a close second in the party's leadership race.

Little more than a year before the next federal election, Justin Trudeau's Liberals are hoping to remind Canadians about the benefits derived from one of their signature promises from the last election: investing billions in infrastructure.

The early cash-out of millions of dollars in stock options is being offered on top of about $3.9 million in bonuses offered to three of the top executives from Kinder Morgan Canada, the company said in a proxy document submitted to the U.S. securities regulator.

The secret overtures offering a financial backstop to Kinder Morgan began in March, even though the Canadian government had made it clear, during its early negotiations with the Texas multinational, that it didn't want to buy the pipeline expansion project, says a new document filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Justin Trudeau celebrated the B.C. Day holiday on Monday, Aug. 6, 2018, at a summer picnic in a park with about 3,000 people in Penticton, of whom many wanted to pose for a selfie with the prime minister, while others held placards opposed to the Trans Mountain pipeline.

Drum beats and chanting followed Justin Trudeau to Delta, B.C., on Sunday, August 5, 2018,as anti-pipeline protesters attempted to disrupt the prime minister's speech at a Liberal Party of Canada community barbecue.

Federal public servants never analyzed the full impact of a national price on carbon in Canada's most populous province, and are now holding additional meetings as a result of Ontario Premier Doug Ford's election and his subsequent decision to abandon a carbon trading market, a senior federal official revealed Thursday.
