Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss how the relationship between the two levels of government is unfolding. Ontario's budget is being delivered on May 15th, but, unlike in the past, announcements on the province's spending aren't tightly guarded secrets.

The Ontario Liberals have official party status, which gives them privileges at Queen's Park that they haven't had for a while. It's a big change for them, but they're still limited in what they can do faced by a majority government.

Prime Minister Mark Carney looks for parliamentary partners ahead of in-person meeting with US President Donald Trump. Green Party co-leader Jonathan Pedneault resigns. Canada's Gross Domestic Product is down 0.2% in February. Ontario Premier Doug Ford tees off on what he calls "bleeding heart judges," and accuses some of being ideologically-driven. US official testifies in support of Israel at the International Court of Justice. Today marks 50 years since the end of the Vietnam war. The Kremlin says Russia has a duty to win the war in Ukraine, as it intensifies attacks on Dnipro and Kharkiv. King Frederik of Denmark is visiting Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory US President Trump says he wants to annex.
The results from the most consequential election in Canada's history are in, revealing a political landscape fraught with uncertainty and potential upheaval. Is Pierre Poilievre finished as Leader of the Conservatives after shockingly losing a 20-point lead, particularly after Bruce Fanjoy's stunning victory in Carleton? With tensions rising and his team embroiled in public disputes with Ontario Premier Doug Ford, can he weather the storm, or will he succumb to the pressures from within his party?Moreover, what does this mean for the future of the Liberal Party? Does Carney have the strategic prowess to secure the three seats needed for a majority by forging sound alliances with the NDP or Elizabeth May? Or is he in such a commanding position that he doesn't even need their support, as the Bloc, NDP, and Green MPS staunchly oppose the Conservatives?Let's not overlook the ramifications of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's escalating threats to separate from Canada unless Prime Minister Carney meets her demands. Will the implications of this be monumental, shaking the very foundations of our federation? Or is it just a bitter response to Carney's victory? As we look ahead to upcoming elections in cities like Hamilton, we must ask: What will happen now that high-profile candidates are without a political platform? Will they seek open council seats or run in the mayoral races?Join our panel, Mark Cripps, Keith Leslie, and host Laura Babcock as they dive deep into these pressing questions, providing insightful analysis that you won't want to miss.

Premier David Eby's partial retreat on the Economic Stabilization Tariff Response Act marks a significant moment in BC's response to US tariff threats. While the government has agreed to remove Part 4 of Bill 7—the section granting powers to amend legislation without parliamentary approval—legal expert Michael Mulligan reveals why serious concerns remain.The bill still contains provisions allowing the government to unilaterally cancel contracts, change procurement practices, and impose taxes without legislative debate. Particularly troubling is language that prevents affected parties from seeking judicial review of government actions—a fundamental protection in democratic systems. "Protection against legal proceedings" suggests the government wants to shield itself from court challenges, raising serious questions about accountability.Mulligan's analysis cuts to the heart of democratic governance: should we empower executives with unilateral authority, even during international disputes? He draws a striking parallel between the chaos of Trump's tariff decisions and the risks of BC's proposed response: "Left-wing populism is not a good response to right-wing populism." The comparison to Ontario Premier Doug Ford's hasty electricity tariff—quickly announced, then withdrawn—serves as a cautionary tale about reactive governance without deliberation.The remaining sections of Bill 7 grant more extensive powers than were used during the COVID-19 pandemic, despite facing only economic threats rather than a public health emergency. As Mulligan notes, "We are not at war with the United States." Want to understand the delicate balance between government authority and democratic safeguards? Listen to this essential breakdown of how emergency powers can fundamentally reshape governance when we're not looking closely enough.Follow this link for links to the legislation discussed.

Canada has a new prime minister and a smaller cabinet with several familiar faces. As Mark Carney takes charge amid a trade war with the U.S., his first diplomatic stop isn't Washington but France and the UK. Meanwhile, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Ontario Premier Doug Ford clash over whether to use oil exports as leverage. With an election looming, tensions rise between Carney and Pierre Poilievre, setting the stage for a heated campaign. Host Kathleen Petty returns to break it all down with former Conservative MP Monte Solberg, Liberal strategist Sabrina Grover, and economist Kent Fellows, exploring the new cabinet, Canada's trade and energy challenges, and what "standing up to Trump" really means.
Today, we're looking at a group of Canadian leaders, including Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc and Ontario Premier Doug Ford, travelling to the Washington to meet with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick over tariffs and trade tensions. Plus, Mark Carney is assuming control over the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada before he's sworn in as prime minister, adding Marco Mendicino as his chief of staff, shuffling Steven Guilbeault to a different department and bringing back former attorney general David Lametti. And finally, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio along with the foreign ministers of other G7 nations are in Quebec for a summit ahead of the G7 leaders' meeting in Alberta in June. Topics at the meeting include support for Ukraine, the situation in the Middle East, stability in the Indo-Pacific region, ongoing crises in Haiti, Venezuela and security challenges in Africa.
Mark Carney will be sworn in as prime minister tomorrow in Ottawa. So will his cabinet – which will be slimmed down from the 37 ministers current Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has. We'll have the details of what we know so far… who's in, who's out, and when the next election might be called.

Other premiers are designing their own plans for how to combat tariffs, and they aren't only worried about ones from the U.S. – Chinese tariffs on some Canadian goods come into effect next week.Also: Ceasefire or no? The messages coming out of Russia are mixed, at best. Russian President Vladimir Putin says he is open to a ceasefire, but has laid out a long list of things that should be on the table.Plus: Ontario measles cases jump more than 100 per cent in two weeks, small businesses navigate tariffs and countertariffs, and more.
CBC's Rosemary Barton and Radio-Canada's Louis Blouin report the latest on who prime minister-designate Mark Carney is keeping and kicking from cabinet in his new government on Friday, with sources saying cabinet could drop from 37 to fewer than 20 members after the swearing-in. Plus, Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc and Ontario Premier Doug Ford meet with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington.
On Tuesday, President Donald Trump threatened to double his planned tariffs on all Canadian steel and aluminum imports from 25% to 50%. Trump's announcement followed Ontario Premier Doug Ford's decision to impose a 25% surcharge on electricity the province supplies to 1.5 million American homes and businesses in response to Trump's tariff threats. However, on Wednesday, Ford announced he would suspend the electricity surcharge after agreeing with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick to discuss a renewed United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) on trade. The announcement prompted Trump to rescind his threat to double tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum.

By the end of Tuesday, day eight of the Canada-U.S. trade war, Ontario Premier Doug Ford had backed down on a 25 per cent surcharge on electricity going to the U.S. that was supposed to go into effect that day. It came after a "productive conversation" between Ford and U.S. commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, who agreed to meet Ford on Thursday. Lutnick has been making the rounds on U.S. cable networks selling Trump's tariffs and ripping into Canada's response. He was also on the call last week between Prime Minister Trudeau and Trump, and has been in constant communication with Finance Minister Dominic Leblanc.So, who is Howard Lutnick? What kind of negotiator is he? What does he believe?Dan Alexander is a senior editor at Forbes Magazine. He recently wrote a profile on Lutnick titled "The most hated guy on Wall Street: the unspoken story around Howard Lutnick, Trump's pick for commerce secretary".

President Trump now says that he will not double tariffs on certain Canadian imports after Ontario Premier Doug Ford agrees to suspend a propose 25% surcharge on Canadian energy sent to the US.
Hosts: Rusty Cannon and Erin Rider The talk of tariffs and a possible recession have thrown the market into a free-fall over the past few days. Today, President Trump is doubling down -- announcing 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum from Canada. But just a short time ago, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said the province would not impose additional surcharges on electricity.

President Donald Trump has stirred up more trade tension with Canada by announcing a 50 percent tariff increase on steel and aluminum imports. The move comes after Ontario Premier Doug Ford imposed a new tax on electricity supplied to three U.S. states. However, Ford quickly backtracked on his decision after discussions with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Trump initially attributed the tariff increase to the tax and stated that the new measure would take effect on Wednesday, March 12. The back-and-forth escalated market concerns, causing a drop in the stock market as investors grew uneasy about the potential economic fallout. Trump also hinted at declaring a national emergency over electricity, while the Canadian government pushed back, calling the tariffs an attack on its workers.
