The Charter protects our freedoms — from a Hutterite community’s right to live by faith to a trans child’s right to be safe and seen. Our new law ensures any use of the notwithstanding clause goes before the courts — and the people. That’s democracy in action. 🇨🇦

It’s not only impractical to impose indecipherable street names on residents. Why erase Trutch from our history? He wanted indigenous people to participate fully in society rather than being excluded on isolated Indian reserves. We should embrace that same spirit. We are stronger together!

Iran’s nuclear program has long been a cause of grave concern, and its missile attacks across Israel threaten regional peace. Today, I convened our National Security Council to receive an update on the situation and to ensure that all necessary steps will be taken to protect our nationals and our diplomatic missions in the region. Canada reaffirms Israel’s right to defend itself and to ensure its security. We call on all parties to exercise maximum restraint and move towards a diplomatic resolution.
