    The Alberta premier explains to Rob Breakenridge why she's putting the separation-relation question to a referendum

    The stakes have been raised ahead of Alberta's scheduled referendum, as the ballot will now include a question on the province's relationship with Canada and future in Confederation. In this interview with Rob Breakenridge, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith defends her decision to put this question on the ballot as well as her efforts to make the case for Canada and to give Albertans hope that the status quo can be improved. Despite that, though, the Alberta government is challenging the court decision that blocked separatist efforts to trigger a binding separation question — a move Smith says is a necessary defence of some important legal and constitutional principles. We'll hear more from Smith about where things stand with the pipeline MOU with the federal government and how close we are to a formal proposal being submitted to the Major Projects Office, all of which is central to her message that a better relationship with Ottawa is possible. Plus, the premier details her recent announcement of a panel to examine the costs of Alberta separation. Watch the full video directly below. Read More

    Iranian claims of achieving a moral victory are not to be believed

    The anti-Trump view of world affairs, dictated this week by the Iranian mullahs, will hold that U.S. President Donald Trump has surrendered. It is worth remembering that when Hamas invaded Israel and massacred 1,200 people and kidnapped about 250 others on Oct. 7, 2023, Iran was well on its way toward developing nuclear weapons, hoped that the Hamas invasion of Israel would raise a general revolt in the West Bank and that a flying column would threaten Jerusalem, and stood ready to activate a powerful Hezbollah that had an estimated 150,000 rockets ready to fire at Israel. Hamas had 20,000 to 30,000 armed and trained terrorists in Gaza to conduct the war that had been unleashed. Read More

    Jesse Kline lays out some of the problems with the Liberals' digital safety act

    Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberals introduced a new version of their online harms bill last week that will attempt to regulate the social media use of people under 16 years of age. It will also force Canadians to send sensitive personal information to sketchy websites in order to view adult content or even to connect with one another on Facebook, which raises serious privacy and censorship concerns. Yet as the Post's Jesse Kline notes in this NP Comment video, similar legislation in Australia has not stopped kids from accessing these sites. And while social media can be harmful for young people, experts generally don't recommend banning it entirely, which raises the question: is this just another example of the nanny state thinking it knows what's best for you and your family?
