Effective August 1st, we’re cutting tolls on the Confederation Bridge from $50 to $20 — and cutting fares on all interprovincial ferries in half in Atlantic Canada.

Canada’s new government is bringing down costs and building one strong, Canadian economy.

Poilievre & Smith’s spin is falling flat — and CBC is covering what others won’t.

• Viral Coldplay moment
• Surveillance debate
• U.S.-style tactics creeping in

Who, exactly, are these immigrants that have made Danielle so angry? Filipino nurses who provide our healthcare? American computer scientists who make Edmonton an AI centre of excellence? Ukrainian refugees who've opened new restaurants? West Africans who have revitalized our francophone community?

“TRUMP HAS COMPLETELY WRECKED AMERICA’S BRAND”

“For decades, the greatest cross-border threats to Canada have come from the south: guns, drugs, weak beer, idiotic wars, reactionary politics, reality TV,idiotic wars,and now epically stupid tariffs and the deranged lunge for annexation”

Embarrassing
Trump Has Completely Wrecked America's Brand
In Canada, crossing over to America is not just taboo now — it’s a kind of betrayal, even borderline treasonous.

Albertans have good reason to be angry: their real wages are down 10%, their minimum wage is frozen, their inflation is worst in Canada, their health care's at risk. None of that was caused by the rest of Canada. My take in today's @TorontoStar: www.thestar.com/business/opi.... #cdnecon

Danielle Smith said the quiet part out loud:

She is putting our country at risk because she is chasing clout with extremists to stay in power.

Albertans deserve so much better than this selfish, separatist, power-hungry Premier.

The fight we face is with President Trump, not Ottawa, and certainly not each other.

Danielle Smith is dividing our country and picking fights in a moment that calls for national unity.
