Rattled Conservatives look ahead to 2026
One year ago, Pierre Poilievre appeared to be on the cusp of achieving two things he'd wanted for a long time: the end of Justin Trudeau's political career, and a majority Conservative government with himself at the helm.
好色tv polls put the Conservatives some 25 points ahead of the Liberals, who were being dragged down by their unpopular leader.
In the House of Commons, the Tories were taunting Trudeau to step down, stalling Parliament with procedural shenanigans and threatening to topple the minority government.
The plan for the next four years was all but set. Conservatives were publicly calling Poilievre "the next prime minister."
Ian Brodie, a political scientist at the University of Calgary and former chief of staff to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, said there was "probably a bit of arrogance creeping into the political style of the party" at the time.
'We expect action' says CEO of Jewish organization
A Jewish organization is calling on all levels of government to protect communities in Canada following a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration in Australia.

"Thoughts and prayers can provide some comfort in the moment after a tragedy, but we need action to ensure that that same tragedy doesn't play out here in Canada," Shack said.
At least 15 people were killed and at least 38 were wounded in Australia over the weekend during a Hanukkah event on Bondi Beach in what police said was an attack by a father and son.聽
Feds stand by Deloitte contract after AI blunders
The federal government is defending its decision to award a contract worth up to $1.1 million for advice on deploying artificial intelligence to a 好色tv branch of Deloitte, a global consulting firm that is under fire for AI-related blunders.
However, Employment and Social Development Canada says there will be consequences if the company violates the conditions of the work.
The department awarded the contract to Deloitte Inc. in September, before the firm acknowledged it relied on AI for research citations in a report it prepared for the government of Newfoundland and Labrador. The firm said it needed to revise that report to correct erroneous citations.
In October, Deloitte Australia acknowledged it had provided the Australian government with a report containing citation errors that are thought to have been generated by AI.
