But November 2025’s federal budget formalized this, and doubled down on the flip flop, slashing the cap on temporary residents from 675,000 to 385,000. And more people than ever seem to approve, to view immigration broadly as a problem rather than a solution. Public attitudes that had been overall positive on immigration since the 1990s now have settled firmly into the negative. After the pandemic, immigration numbers “ratcheted up a lot,” Banerjee said, particularly for temporary residents such as foreign students and people with work permits. Much of the drop in temporary residents is coming from reduced numbers of foreign students.

As America levies consequences on the United Kingdom for its free speech transgressions, Canada must see this as a cautionary tale. The current White House has made it clear — most famously via Vice-President JD Vance’s February 2025 address in Munich — that it resents Europe’s slow rejection of personal liberties like free speech. On the free speech issue, thankfully Canada has not yet implemented its own online safety legislation. That draft legislation was broadly similar to the U.K.’s Online Safety Act, containing provisions that imposed significant fines and criminal liability for posting material online. It’s also crucial Canada remains supportive of free speech for its own sake — as it is an essential ingredient for an open, prosperous society.

In 2025, the department estimated there were 547,300 spawning striped bass in the southern gulf, up from 340,300 from 2024. David Roth, program director at the Atlantic Salmon Federation, said Atlantic salmon stocks continue to plummet in the region, with one of the major factors being the increasing number of striped bass. “The main reason for the low survival rates is predation by striped bass.”David Roth, program director at the Atlantic Salmon Federation, said consumption of salmon by striped bass is a reason salmon stocks have declined. (CBC)By listing striped bass in a cautious zone, DFO is suggesting, according to its presentation, that any decisions about the fishery “should promote growth.”But Roth said striped bass fishery limits are too conservative and should increase to help Atlantic salmon. “But now Atlantic salmon in the Miramichi and southern gulf are kind of where striped bass used to be.”
