While shared democratic values and a vibrant Indian diaspora in Canada provide a strong foundation, recent events have exposed serious fault lines, challenging the partnership and raising questions about its future […]

For decades, Canada’s approach to national defence has been characterized by a careful, often cautious, balancing act. However, the rapidly shifting global landscape—marked by rising geopolitical tensions, climate-driven security threats, and accelerating technological change—is forcing a long-overdue reckoning. The central question is no longer if Canada needs to modernize its military, but how it can

A new international study has cast a critical light on Canada’s systems for holding its military to account, revealing significant gaps when compared to other democracies.

The social contract between the governed and their representatives is built on a foundation of trust. When that trust is eroded by demonstrable falsehoods,

For decades, a delicate balance has existed in Canadian law between the fundamental right to religious freedom and the imperative to protect vulnerable groups from hatred. That balance has now been decisively shifted. With the passage of Bill C-63, the *Online Harms Act*, the Liberal government, supported by the Bloc Québécois, has fundamentally altered Canada’s

The political landscape in Ottawa has undergone a seismic shift. In his first major act of governance, Prime Minister Mark Carney has unveiled a sweeping cabinet shuffle, a move defined as much by a high-profile departure as by strategic new appointments.
