Mark Carney made ‘terrible mistake’ by parroting Donald Trump’s justification for war on Iran, says historian and security expert
Prime Minister Mark Carney made “a terrible mistake” with his immediate full-throated support of U.S. President Donald Trump’s war of choice in Iran, Canadian historian and security-intelligence expert Wesley Wark said yesterday. Professor Wesley Wark, author of the National Security and Intelligence Newsletter on Substack (Photo: Balsillie School of International Affairs). Lest readers have not heard of him, Dr. Wark is not some naive peacenik. A professor, author and former advisor to the public safety minister on national security policy, he has served on the Canadian Advisory Council on National Security and the advisory council to the Canada Border Services Agency. “It seems we still struggle to unhook ourselves from thought and policy dependency on the United States, despite a brave speech in Davos,” Dr. Wark observed.

Central Alberta town faces uncertain future as it drowns in debt and faces potential insolvency
TLDRThe Town of Gibbons in central Alberta faces an uncertain future due to a multimillion-dollar financial crisis, potentially leading to insolvency. The town's mayor and council have acknowledged the severity of the situation, which has resulted from years of poor financial decisions. The Alberta government has appointed an official administrator to oversee the municipality's governance and finances. Efforts are underway to address the crisis, including discussions with the Alberta Ministry of Municipal Affairs, layoffs, and the exploration of service transfers to Sturgeon County. A viability review will examine the town's governance and financial state, with potential outcomes including downgrading its status to a hamlet.

The rise of singlehood could impact everything from housing to taxes
"People, especially women, are prioritizing their education, careers and personal growth over settling down, which means they are marrying later." Singlehood is "absolutely" on the rise, says Geoff MacDonald, a professor of psychology who studies the well-being of singles at the University of Toronto. Justin Frost says high expectations among women and unrealistic standards pushed by social media have put a 'dark cloud' over dating. It will have an impact on housing because they need smaller housing, cheaper housing, because these days housing is supported by two people, not one." For Bow, she says she will continue to spread the word on the benefits of singlehood through her content on social media.

Canada poised to become 'one of the largest suppliers of LNG in the world': energy minister
Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson says Canada could eventually export 100 million tonnes of LNG per year. The country's first and only export terminal, LNG Canada, began operating in June in Kitimat, B.C. Another five million tonnes could be added through the Woodfibre and Cedar LNG projects, both also under construction in B.C. According to the International Institute for Sustainable Development, LNG Canada Phase 1 burns natural gas to power equipment. The LNG Canada export terminal in Kitimat's next phase was referred to the new federal Major Projects Office.

Explosion shakes Iran's capital as Israel launches fresh attack
Earlier, Iran fired missiles at targets in Israel and Gulf Arab states in retaliation, while Israel pledged "non-stop" strikes against Iran's leaders and military. In the 12-day war in June, Israeli and American strikes greatly weakened Iran's air defences, military leadership and nuclear program. Araghchi, Iran's foreign affairs minister, blamed such strikes on the U.S. and Israel for starting the war. Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said on Sunday that Israel will have "a non-stop air train" of strikes against military and leadership targets in Iran. Some Iranians celebrate indoors, in carsAs supreme leader, Khamenei had the final say on all major policies since 1989.

Why were toxic drug deaths in B.C. down 21% in 2025?
New research using drug-checking results could provide an insight into why toxic drug death tolls have been on a downward trend for two years now in B.C. But scientists and officials say there are likely multiple factors behind exactly why the number of drug-related deaths in B.C. The drug supply is still as toxic and unpredictable as ever, if not more so," said Samuel Tobias, a researcher at the B.C. Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementThe research found that the samples at drug checking sites became less concentrated in fentanyl over the years, which was associated with a drop in toxic drug deaths. 'Many lives were lost'Tobias notes, however, that lowered fentanyl concentration alone isn't the sole factor behind the provincewide, and continent-wide, drop in toxic drug deaths.

Mayhem after killing of cartel leader unlikely to end at Mexico's borders
Trouble on the borderAmong the countries most at risk from the fallout of El Mencho’s killing is Guatemala, according to analysts. While the CJNG managed to largely establish dominance in the region, the Sinaloa cartel still maintains a presence in Chiapas. This contest is inexorably linked to Mexican organized crime, with Los Lobos backed by CJNG and Los Choneros tied to the Sinaloa cartel. In the case of an internal struggle over El Mencho’s succession or a split in the Jalisco cartel, Los Lobos could lose backing from their key benefactor. While the CJNG’s succession process remains opaque, authorities across Latin America will be closely monitoring the cartel’s next steps after El Mencho’s death.

Opinion: There's Independent Jewish Voices, and then there’s the other 99 per cent of Canadian Jews
While the IJV cites a survey indicating that only 51 per cent of Jewish Canadian identify as Zionists, a 2025 survey found that only 1 per cent of Canadian Jews identify as anti-Zionists. Throughout history, tokenized voices have been elevated to legitimize broader campaigns against the communities they come from. While minority views can be valuable for an inclusive discussion, tokenized voices are harmful to any discussion, particularly when those tokenized voices push a radical ideology. Presenting such fringe voices as authoritative representatives of Jewish opinion distorts public understanding and misleads audiences about the breadth of Jewish perspectives. Legitimizing those who distort Jewish identity to attack Jewish existence aren’t Canadian values — they are someone else’s values.
