Canada's acceptance of refugee claims has ballooned in last 6 years — more for some countries than others

The number of refugee claimants granted asylum in Canada was close to 37,000 in 2023, up from just over 14,000 in 2018.

The most asylum seekers allowed to stay in Canada came from two countries where more than 95 per cent of decisions were positive: Iran and Turkey. This was true regardless of the type of persecution the person was fleeing.

🇺🇸Alberta Premier Danielle Smith visits Trump in Mar-a-Lago

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith visited U.S. president-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday evening and again Sunday morning.

We had a friendly and constructive conversation during which I emphasized the mutual importance of the U.S. – Canadian energy relationship, and specifically, how hundreds of thousands of American jobs are supported by energy exports from Alberta. On behalf of Albertans, I will continue to engage in constructive dialogue and diplomacy with the incoming administration and elected federal and state officials from both parties, and will do all I can to further Alberta’s and Canada’s interests.

Smith wrote on X.

Mark Carney expected to launch Liberal leadership bid next week, backed by 30 MPs

Former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney is expected to formally announce his bid to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau late next week, according to a source close to his campaign.

Carney has more than 30 MPs backing him. The source suggested he picked up support after Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc closed the door on leadership earlier this week.

Transport Minister Anita Anand and Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly have also previously confirmed that they would not be running to replace Trudeau as leader of the party.

Liberals will choose their next leader — and Canada's next prime minister — on March 9.

This gives Trudeau two more months of power he doesn't deserve.

The party is raising the entry fee for potential candidates to $350,000 — a substantial increase from the $75,000 fee required in the previous leadership race.

🇺🇸Canada energy minister warns Trump against an oil trade war

Donald Trump’s claim that the US doesn’t need anything from Canada is “simply false,” said Jonathan Wilkinson, Canada’s energy minister and a potential candidate in the contest to replace Justin Trudeau as prime minister.

The US doesn’t have easy alternatives to Canadian crude oil, uranium, potash and other critical minerals, Wilkinson said. And he warned that nothing is off the table when it comes to potential Canadian trade retaliation, including export taxes.

Wilkinson will be in Washington next week and is working on lining up meetings with American lawmakers.

Experts say the next few months are going to be rough for the Canadian dollar as it appears set to continue its downward trend.

Karl Schamotta, chief market strategist at Corpay, predicts the coming months will be "a very turbulent period for Canada" as uncertainty stemming from incoming U.S. president Donald Trump's policy proposals weigh on business investment and consumer confidence - which means a weaker loonie in the short term.

Court hits pause on global streamers’ upcoming Canadian content payments

The Federal Court of Appeal says big streaming companies won’t have to pay for Canadian content until the court hears their appeal of a CRTC decision ordering them to pay.

In June, the CRTC said that foreign streamers must contribute five per cent of their annual Canadian revenues to a fund devoted to producing Canadian content, including local TV and radio news.

Big global streamers like Netflix and Disney Plus launched court challenges of that order, which the regulator made under the Online Streaming Act.
