Supreme Court’s 8-1 ruling on May 1, 2026, confirms that Pierre Poilievre was factually correct about the legal constraints of the NSICOP process. For over a year, Poilievre has maintained that accepting the top-secret briefings through this committee would effectively gag him.
Northern Perspective@NorthrnPrspectv

🚨THEY LIED🚨 For years, Liberals claimed Poilievre “refused” a security clearance. The Supreme Court just exposed the truth. It came with a gag order. And he was right to refuse it. Credit to @vesperdigital for the compilation

The deadline for an agreement is now one month overdue, and a pipeline has been downgraded to “more likely than not” and the PM is Euro hobnobbing. What are we missing about generational speeds?

Heather Exner Pirot "We have an opportunity to be an energy superpower, but instead we're choosing to be an energy colony of the United States again." Poilievre "We're never going to cut our American allies off of our energy." Tasker "The Trump administration is warning Canada against using energy as leverage in the CUSMA Review. But with the president's tariffs pummeling Canadian steel, autos and lumber, that's exactly what the government is preparing to do." @ExnerPirot @JPTasker

@hollyanndoan @WiretapMediaCa @OurCommons Government is already tracking what they call "misogynistic" speech in their files. Under Bill C-9, they’ve removed the "good faith" religious defence and lowered the bar for hate charges. If you’re in the file, you’re already in their sights. Scary times for free speech in 🇨🇦

.@OurCommons administration is keeping “robust” files on what Canadians say about MPs. “We have different categories, if they are misogynistic, etcetera… We can extract that information.” — Deputy Sergeant-at-Arms Paul Mellon blacklocks.ca/keep-files-on-… #cdnpoli

Glad to know my tax dollars are going toward a "robust" database of what I think of MPs. 🙄 How about we use that effort to track where our money is actually going instead? Fix the mismanagement, stop the monitoring. #cdnpoli #accountability

The Supreme Court has ruled 8-1 that the PM can limit MP free speech within the NSICOP security committee. While the court calls it a "narrow limitation," many Canadians are still asking, where is the line between national security and the transparency we deserve? 🇨🇦 #CdnPoli
VictoriaL59@Victoria59L

Interesting. ⬇️ This is the security clearance that Poilievre wouldn't get, because of the free speech limits. Most people seemed to think he had no security clearance at all, they still don't understand it. Canadians needs transparency

Canada’s oil industry is sounding the alarm, higher carbon taxes during a global energy crisis is a recipe for disaster. If the U.S. can walk away from unrealistic Net Zero goals to protect their economy, why is Ottawa still doubling down on making life more expensive for Canada
Bloomberg@business

Canada’s oil industry is pushing back hard on proposals to impose a higher carbon tax, arguing the policy adds costs at a time when the world needs more secure and affordable sources of energy bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

CSIS warns about Chinese spy rings targeting MPs, yet the government pivots to "strategic partnership" and "cooperation". This has been going on for years—it’s high time people woke up to what’s happening in Ottawa. #cdnpoli #ChinaInterference
Blacklock's Reporter@mindingottawa

China spy rings are cultivating "relationships" with unnamed MPs says @CSISCanada. Warning follows @AnitaAnandMP announcement of "new policy" of cooperation with Beijing.  #cdnpoli" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">blacklocks.ca/china-spy-ring… @GAC_Corporate

@nationalpost We’ve reached a point where the law seems to favor certain groups over others based on "pretending." How can we have a fair society when the truth is treated as optional in court? Truly ridiculous!

Regardless of anyone’s feelings of Poilievre, the math here is hard to ignore. A pipeline to the Pacific would move $30B in oil annually, surpassing our total exports to China.If the project is "more probable than possible," then why is PM Mark Carney still standing in the way?!!
cbcwatcher@cbcwatcher

CP pumping the Carney CP interview "And in an interview with the Canadian press, the Prime Minister said that a new pipeline is more probable than possible. How optimistic are you that this will happen?" Poilievre "...A pipeline to the Pacific would move $30 billion of oil every year. That's more than our total annual exports to China. So why is Mark Carney still blocking it? " @PierrePoilievre @MarkJCarney

@hollyanndoan @DirtyHarry8080 @MarkJCarney @PSPC_SPAC So you can be 100% foreign-owned and still be "Canadian" enough for the government's Buy Canadian Policy?!! 😳 At this rate, my sourdough starter is more Canadian than some of these corporations.

Definition of "Canadian" under the new Buy Canadian Policy: ❌ Owned by Canadians ✅ Just needs a storefront Even 100% foreign-owned corporations qualify. How does this help our actual local businesses? #cdnpoli #Canada
Holly Doan@hollyanndoan

Companies 100% foreign owned still qualify as “Canadian” under PM @MarkJCarney ‘Buy Canadian Policy’, says @PSPC_SPAC. Definition of “Canadian” is so broad it would apply to foreign-owned corporations with storefront branches here like Bank of China. blacklocks.ca/buy-canadian-n… #cdnpoli

I’ll have some exciting news to share this week. As many of you now know, after 25 years of writing for La Presse—entirely on a volunteer basis—the newspaper decided to “pause” our relationship last month following comments I made about how government tax credits may be fostering editorial bias in parts of the media landscape, often favouring the governing Liberals. Just agreed to write for a new outlet, with my first piece coming out this Wednesday. More details to come—stay tuned.

I think he meant “Canada continues to subsidize an increasingly govt-dependent press.” A free press doesn’t take money from people it regularly reports upon.” (I know that’s unfashionable)
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney

Journalism empowers us with the truth and protects our democracy. In a world where it’s increasingly under threat, Canada continues to support a free and open press — and we are stronger for it. #WorldPressFreedomDay

Another day, another government announcement about "potential" projects. We don’t need more offices, committees, or "referrals", we need shovels in the ground. You can’t build a nation on press releases and "spring updates." Stop talking about speed and start actually building.
Finance Canada@FinanceCanada

The #SpringUpdate outlines progress the government has made in advancing major projects that will connect and transform our nation. -15 projects -60,000+ jobs -$125 billion in new investments ow.ly/a7LP50YTx10
