Trump's economic pressure tactics against Canada unexpectedly unified the nation, particularly boosting patriotism in Quebec, a region that has held two independence referendums. This surge in national pride is evident in events like the Canada-US hockey game in Montreal, where the crowd passionately sang the Canadian national anthem, then booed the American one.

How do the Conservatives' inquiries into DEI spending relate to their broader political platform and stated objectives?

The Conservatives' pursuit of information on DEI spending reflects their broader platform aimed at dismantling what they term "woke ideology." This aligns with Poilievre's stated intention to replace what he views as a "woke culture" in the military with a "warrior culture." The requests for information, made via order paper questions, are a formal mechanism for parliamentary accountability, allowing the opposition party to scrutinize government actions.

How might environmental concerns and Indigenous perspectives influence the project's feasibility and timeline?

The project's economic benefits are significant, potentially unlocking gold, base metals, and diamond production. Furthermore, proponents argue its strategic importance for Arctic security and sovereignty justifies its classification as defence spending, aligning with both Liberal and Conservative party platforms. However, environmental concerns, particularly regarding caribou populations, require careful mitigation.

What are the potential long-term consequences of each party's approach on Canada's economic competitiveness, social equity, and national security?

The success of either approach remains uncertain. Conservative policies risk exacerbating housing inflation if not carefully implemented. Liberal interventionism might crowd out private investment, despite aiming to catalyze it. Both approaches require careful execution to effectively address Canada's multifaceted challenges.

What are the immediate consequences of the Green Party's exclusion from the leaders' debates, and how might this affect the Canadian election?

The Green Party of Canada is challenging the Leaders' Debates Commission's decision to exclude them from the election debates, citing procedural unfairness and an unreasonable decision-making process. The party claims that the commission's decision was based on a misunderstanding and that challenges in securing candidacies, including hostility and bullying, led to a lower number of confirmed candidates than initially anticipated. The party was officially disinvited the morning of the French-language debate, after the commission's decision was leaked to third parties.
