The government of Canada has a questionnaire about it's new budget. Most of the given options are conservative (because this is a conservative government) but there are some that aren't, and you can write in your own responses.

Trump: "They (Canada) have charged our Farmers as much as 400% Tariffs, for years, on Dairy Products"
Fact check: ❌ FALSE
High dairy tariffs kick in if a maximum tier (Tariff Rate Quota) is reached but in reality it's never been reached, so U.S. dairy exports to Canada have remained tariff-free.

In four days of swimming, Summer McIntosh has broken two world records and nearly broken two of the most unbreakable records in the sport, with one likely world record left to go. This isn’t just an incredible meet: it’s a statement of limitless intent. www.thestar.com/sports/amate...
Bruce Arthur: Toronto’s Summer McIntosh threatens the most unbreakable record in women’s swimming at 18. Nothing is out of reach
That Toronto's McIntosh can even approach the sport’s most untouchable marks at this age is astonishing; that she might yet break them tells you who she is.

Reminder as we watch measles rates climb in Canada that *this* is Poilievre's attitude towards vaccination during a public health emergency.
MMR vaccination has long been mandated for health care workers.
Would a Poilievre govt ban the MMR mandate in health care during a huge measles outbreak?
