From Whitby’s soccer fields to the world’s biggest stage, Olivia Smith is rewriting the playbook for what’s possible. Nine goals. Player of the Year. Twenty years old. One unstoppable force.

She’s not just playing the game — she’s elevating it.

Their proposals align with our shared goals of modernizing policing, reducing red tape, and improving public safety outcomes in every community.

Thank you to the NPF for their continued partnership and advocacy for RCMP Members nationwide. #Public Safety #NPF

We had a constructive conversation about supporting RCMP Members with the tools, training, and mental health resources they need to keep Canadians safe.

We remember their lives and stand with Jewish Canadians against hate. Every person in Canada deserves to feel safe, valued, and free from fear. Canada continues to call for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages and will always stand firmly against antisemitism in all its forms.

Today, we remember the Canadians who were murdered in the October 7th attacks:
• Ms. Vivian Silver
• Ms. Judi Weinstein
• Mr. Netta Epstein
• Ms. Shir Hana Georgy
• Mr. Alexandre Look
• Mr. Ben Mizrachi
• Ms. Adi Vital-Kaploun
• Ms. Tifferet Lapidot

Since that day, Jewish Canadians have faced a deeply troubling rise in antisemitism. In 2024, nearly 70% of all police-reported religious hate crimes in Canada targeted Jewish communities.

Hamas murdered more than 1,200 people, including eight Canadians, injuried thousands, abducted over 200 hostages, and committed unspeakable atrocities against innocent civilians, including acts of sexual violence.

Two years ago today, Jewish Canadians — and people around the world — woke up to the horrifying images of the October 7th Hamas terrorist attacks.

Canadians fight to make every dollar count and that’s why our government is helping them save money.

Why do Conservatives get “weak in the knees” when it comes time to stand up for Canadians?

Affordability isn’t a slogan. It’s about higher incomes, productivity and economic growth. That’s what we’re delivering for every Canadian!

The agency will cut red tape, strengthen supply chains, create good jobs in aerospace, shipbuilding, and advanced manufacturing, and align Canada more closely with key allies like the U.K., Australia, France, and the EU’s Readiness 2030 plan.
