“Pete Hegseth … announcement: Donald Trump has renamed the region from Mexico to Greenland as “Greater North America.” …
It was the same strategy employed by Russia in Ukraine prior to the February 2022 invasion. Trump claimed that Ukraine was just part of Greater Russia. …
It is the same with Trump’s claim that Canada is part of his “Greater North America.” …
In early 2026… found that 57.9% of Canadians believed that an American invasion of #Canada was likely.”

Today, the Carney government joined the Conservatives and the Bloc to defeat Jenny Kwan’s No More Loopholes Bill — legislation that would have stopped Canadian weapons sent to the U.S. from being used to fuel the genocide in Gaza.
It’s a deeply shameful vote that suggests they would rather appease Trump than protect vulnerable civilians.
But this moment also shows why voices like Jenny Kwan and her colleagues in the NDP caucus matter so much. They continue to champion human rights, peace, and international justice with courage and persistence, even when few others in Parliament will.
Millions of Canadians share that vision. They want Canada to be a force for peace, not a junior arms dealer.
This is exactly why our country needs the NDP.
