While other countries have changed course in their approach to "gender medicine" for minors, Canada forges on. Countless reports have shown that the “science” behind “gender medicine” for youth is bunk, and that these treatments are destructive, experimental, and cause permanent harm—leading to sterilization and numerous other health impacts. This all continues to be ignored by the media...

On April 16, the UK Supreme Court handed down a judgement determining that the terms “man," “woman,” and “sex” in the Equality Act 2010 refer to biological sex (not gender identity).

Why didn’t Pierre Poilievre lean into a populist, Trump-style campaign? Why do Canadians have such short memories? Is voting for the People’s Party of Canada splitting the vote, thereby giving the Liberal Party an advantage? Could a Liberal win mean a fracturing of the country?

In the winter of 2022, working class Canadians stood up to ongoing and worsening government tyranny. The Trucker Convoy brought not only their convictions, but joy, hugs, dogs, hot dogs, and bouncy castles to Ottawa.

The PPC more closely resembles the populist, freedom-oriented option many Canadians are desperate for, in a sea...

Free speech hasn’t been at the forefront of debate in Canada, but it should be. Unlike our neighbours in the United States, many Canadians have either taken free expression for granted, or simply don’t see it as very important. Only recently have some of us woken up to the limitations our government can place on our speech if we don’t make free expression a priority, and fast. Lisa Bildy is execut...
