    Jan 22 2026

    “We are Canadian.” Days after taking aim at the Trump Administration in Davos, Prime Minister Mark Carney tries to rally his cabinet in Quebec ahead of a new session of parliament, as they work on plans to address the complex U.S. trade issue, as well as a host of other foreign and domestic concerns.

Many say they are unsure about the board’s long-term goals, and the $1 billion price tag for permanent membership.


    And: Ontario’s beleaguered Marineland amusement park tells Ottawa there are only two choices for its captive whales and dolphins: a future in the U.S., or death.

  • Gun buy back program, 'Hands off Greenland' protests, Drift logs threatening ocean species, and more
    Jan 17 2026

    The federal government has unveiled the next steps in its national gun buyback program. Since 2020, Ottawa has banned about 2,500 models of what it calls "assault-style" firearms, offering Canadians compensation to hand them in. But the program is under fire from some gun owners, and not all parts of the country are co-operating.


    Also: In Greenland, Denmark, and Iqaluit - thousands of protesters came together with a unified message: "Hands off Greenland". U.S. President Donald Trump is escalating his efforts to annex the territory by threatening tariffs on European countries that try to stand in his way.
