The Liberal government wants to regulate natural health products like pharmaceutical drugs. Items you may have in your cupboard—like calcium, vitamin D, folic acid, probiotics, and others—are increasingly being swept up in the robust regulatory regime applied to pharmaceuticals. This means extraordinary additional costs that will harm Canadian health companies, and a reduction in the products regulated and sold in Canada. Ultimately, these changes will limit Canadians’ ability to manage their health as they choose. It will also push consumers to order products from U.S.—much to the benefit of their economy, and to the detriment of ours. On the basis of risk and proportionality, freedom to choose, and business viability in Canada, the Liberal approach is misinformed, and another nail in the coffin for natural health products in Canada. Bill C-224–which we’re debating this week at health committee— aims to change that. Follow along here:

Cohere, a Canadian AI company, received $240M in taxpayer funding. Much of it reportedly went to a data centre built and operated by a U.S. firm. Now, Cohere is reportedly in talks to merge with a German company. I asked if they’re committed to remaining Canadian-controlled. Their response was not definitive. Did the Liberals include sovereignty guarantees in the $240M contract?

Steven Guilbeault: "we still have an industrial price on pollution… We still have clean fuel standards... We still have (strict emissions) targets for vehicles.“ A pertinent reminder from the former environment minister that despite the bluster, all of these de-facto taxes remain—and continue to drive up the cost of essentials for Canadians.

Honda is flagging U.S tariffs, the Liberals’ emissions regulations—an EV mandate by another name—and the Chinese EV deal as driving questions on its future in Canada. I have been sounding this alarm for months. Unfortunately, it seems the government is incapable of listening to reason, and our auto workers will pay the price. Watch:

Industry Minister Joly made several false and misleading claims tonight on Power and Politics—some so fanciful that you couldn’t make them up. When asked by the CBC if the deal signed with Germany "is a phony declaration that is unenforceable with no money attached", she just starts making things up. Check out the clip here, and then let’s dig into the claims🧵

On November 30, the PM said he had never been briefed on federal candidates receiving campaign donations from Communist China. Today the Globe & Mail reported that CSIS documents confirm "Chinese diplomats and their proxies backed the re-election of Justin Trudeau’s Liberals."

The 49,000 Chinese EVs the Liberals will allow into Canada present serious national security, economic, and forced labour concerns. The Liberal government’s own surtax order in 2024 that imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs stated exactly that. Min. Joly herself issued that order. Today, I asked her how she reconciles that.

In response to this, Conservatives introduced a very simple motion that read: “That the committee unequivocally condemn forced labour practices in China.” The Liberals responded by attempting to replace “in China” with “globally.” When asked to demonstrate the most basic concern for China’s human rights record, Liberals cannot bring themselves to do it.

Nearly two years ago, following the admission of two suspected terrorists into Canada, I pushed then immigration minister Miller to require police background checks for newcomers. Today, applicants can still be approved “even where there are real concerns about their… links to organized crime,” says a professor at Mount Royal who previously worked with the CBSA.

The Prime Minister calls Canada’s forced labour protections “the most rigorous.” But we’ve blocked just ONE shipment. The U.S. has stopped over 4,000. With this record—and ongoing reluctance to acknowledge forced labour in China—there’s little reason to believe Liberals will stop Chinese EVs made with forced labour from entering Canada.
