If anyone believes this is a success for Carney and the Liberals, you really don't understand what just transpired. Then again, these are (mostly) the same people who thought countertariffs against the U.S. was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

"Canada should become more like Alberta." Sounds good to me! A short, well-written column - with a vitally important message - by National Post Comment editor and colleague Carson Jerema.

My God. If I was a liberal (or Liberal), I would be displeased that she represented my political brand for even a nanosecond.

Argos beat Lions 52-24. Best performance of the season. Wandered through the CNE for a spell. Watched the local wrestling show and saw…from a distance…Jimmy Hart (Real Jimmy Hart)!

FWIW, I'm not surprised by this poll. Briefly... Carney won the federal election largely because of Trump/tariffs. He has swiped ideas from the CPC and NDP, and has barely proposed anything original. His negotiations with the U.S. have been abysmal. The PM's political

I'm sorry, but this is just bizarre. If parents in Vancouver want to teach their young children a few basic swimming skills in a public pool, they should be allowed to do so. These aren't "lessons," for heaven's sakes!

Brooke Henderson wins the CPKC Women's Open by one stroke over Minjee Lee. It's the second time she's won her home tournament. Well done!

Say what you want about this decision, but there's plenty of logic to this. (Bukele's presidency is something I haven't written about, other than his government's decision to use Bitcoin. Agree with him on some main issues, disagree with him on others.) abcnews.go.com/International/…
