Pierre Poilievre wants to be PM — but still refuses the security clearance needed to access classified intelligence.

You can’t lead a country when you’re not cleared to know what it’s facing.

CBC breaks down why that matters:

We are in a time of frightening darkness but people are still stepping up and doing the right thing.
We must keep kicking at the authoritarian darkness until it bleeds daylight.

CBC is digging into the future of AI in Canada — and who really controls it.

From OpenAI’s new data centres 🇨🇦 to calls for stronger AI regulation, CBC is connecting the dots on tech, law, and sovereignty.

It is clear that Trump is not going to stop in his attack on Canadian manufacturing. The PM is going to have to put a strong plan in place to support our auto, lumber, steel, aluminum sectors.
