Pierre Poilievre

A re-elected NDP government would scrap British Columbia's long-standing carbon tax and shift the burden to "big polluters" if the federal government dropped its requirement for the law, Premier David Eby said on Thursday.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh hinted his party may soon abandon support for the carbon price, setting the stage for an intense return to the House of Commons.

From his fondness for online name calling to his studied indifference to things like causality and jurisdiction, Singh has behaved far more like the Conservative Party of Canada’s leader than the prime minister.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that he "can't wait" to get back to Ottawa to get into it with Pierre Poilievre in the House of Commons as he tried to make a case to his own MPs to put up a united front against the Conservatives.

Liberal MPs will have one last chance to tell their leader how they think their party can improve their political prospects before they return to Ottawa to face off against Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre in the House of Commons.

Former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney says he'll advise the Liberal party to flip some of the challenges posed by an increasingly divided and dangerous world into an economic opportunity for Canada.

New Democrats are huddling in Montreal to strategize a new path forward ahead of the fall parliamentary session — one that doesn't include the Liberals at their hips and ideally makes them a credible alternative to the Conservatives at the next election.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may be bracing for an earful from his caucus when Liberal MPs gather in Nanaimo, B.C. today to plot their strategy for the coming election year.

New Democrats are attempting to paint themselves as a legitimate alternative to the Liberals and Conservatives ahead of the next election, but Singh acknowledged one his party's biggest challenges will be persuading Canadians it can actually form government.

Now, free from the agreement with the federal Liberals, the NDP can lean into its historic bread-and-butter roots of championing working-class people against corporate profiteering and a laissez-faire government.

With the Liberals lagging in the polls, LaSalle—Émard—Verdun could be up for grabs this time around, with one survey suggesting both the NDP and the Bloc are competitive. Voters will go to the polls on Sept. 16.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh may hold the key to trigger the next election now that he's axed his political pact with the Liberals, but strategists say that could prove to be both an asset and a liability.

Sarah Worthman, executive director of the Newfoundland and Labrador Queer Research Initiative, says she’s seriously concerned about the potential harm of a Conservative government for LGBTQ+ Canadians.

Conservatives – and centrists, for that matter – in Canada and around the world have long undermined the working class and their rights
