12 Policy Ideas for a Renewed Canada
As Canada readies for a transformational election, the following are some of the key policy ideas that Canadians should consider their government adopting to propel the country forward.
Constitutional jurisdictions
The Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE) called on the next federal government to establish a Pan-Canadian International Education Council, which can “preserve the country’s reputation as a top destination for international students and research talent.”...

The Net-Zero Dream Is Unravelling And The Consequences Are Global
The grand climate-finance experiment is crumbling, but the progressive partisans won’t admit it.
The Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) was intended to steer global finance toward green projects, but major banks are withdrawing, citing economic and legal risks. As the world moves on, Canada faces a choice: market-driven pragmatism or stubborn adherence to a failing ideology.
Federal Clean Power Plan Risks Blackouts And Higher Bills
AI-fuelled data centres are pushing Canada’s grid to the brink, warns Maureen McCall. Provinces scramble to keep up while Ottawa’s Clean Electricity Regulations (CER) pile on risk and trigger constitutional fights. Hydropower’s tapped out, renewables can’t close the gap. McCall demands urgent action: scrap the CER, slash red tape on transmission projects, and supercharge investment in new power infrastructure. Without it, Canada faces soaring costs, blackouts and a blow to its global competitiveness.
Trump’s Tariffs And Alberta’s Demands Could Strengthen Canada
U.S. tariffs and Alberta’s rising demands may feel like threats, but Lee Harding sees opportunity. Trump’s pressure is spurring long-overdue reforms: stronger borders, military renewal, and growing calls for pipelines and freer internal trade. Alberta’s ultimatum to Ottawa could lead to changes in energy policy and equalization, ultimately benefiting all of Canada. If handled wisely, today’s tensions could drive economic renewal and a more unified, self-reliant country. Canada’s reckoning might be its revival.
Public Health Got COVID-19 Wrong But Won’t Admit It
A new paper by four Canadian doctors challenges the official COVID-19 response, arguing it wasn’t as evidence-based as authorities claimed. As Lee Harding explains, so-called “misinformation” wasn’t just coming from dissenting voices—it was also coming from public health officials themselves. Lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and mask policies failed to deliver, yet accountability remains elusive. If health authorities want trust, they must earn it back. Read more

What A Forgotten Warship Says About The West’s Decline
When HMS Bristol—a Cold War-era British warship with a storied past—was quietly scrapped in 2024, Senior Fellow William Brooks saw more than just a naval relic lost. In this personal reflection, Brooks traces the ensign he inherited from his U.S. Navy uncle back to a time of true Western solidarity—through war, alliance, and shared values. Today, he laments the erosion of that unity, as identity politics, weakened militaries, and fractured alliances leave the West adrift in uncertain waters.
Canada’s Patriotism Is Fading As Civic Literacy Declines
Canadian patriotism is fading—not for lack of pride, but for lack of understanding. Political scientist John von Heyking argues that without civic literacy, national sentiment becomes hollow performance. Too few Canadians know how their democratic arrangement works, leaving them vulnerable to misinformation, manipulation and disengagement. As identity politics and superficial self-criticism gain prominence, a deeper “constitutional patriotism” rooted in civic education becomes necessary. If Canada is to remain a distinct, democratic community, its citizens must first learn what that truly means.
