Carney set to speak with reporters following spring parliamentary sitting

June 25, 2026

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney will speak with reporters at a press conference on Parliament Hill on Thursday, following the conclusion of the spring sitting.

The Liberal government rammed through several pieces of legislation before the House of Commons rose last Thursday. Among them was Bill C-22, the government’s police search powers legislation, and Bill C-9, the Liberals’ anti-hate bill, both which have been the subject of contentious debate with opposition parties.

Carney has also faced criticism for his lack of attendance at question period, a daily 45-minute segment in the House of Commons that allows opposition MPs to hold the prime minister and his cabinet members to account on key issues.

The Liberal government currently holds a majority of seats, but with the departures of several MPs, the House of Commons will be short six seats this fall.

Some of the main issues Carney faces over the summer months include the review of the Canada-United-States-Mexico-Agreement (CUSMA), the Alberta referendum and proposed pipeline to British Columbia’s coast and Canada’s economy.

The press conference begins at 11:15 a.m. ET.

More to come.

Wednesday, July 1, is not only Canada Day 2026, it marks the sixth anniversary of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Free Trade Agreement (CUSMA). It’s also the date set for a trilateral review of the agreement, providing the three participating countries with two options: first, choosing a 16-year extension that would keep the agreement in place; second, choosing not to extend and triggering annual reviews of the deal, without a concluding point, unless the three nations eventually reach a deal. Prime Minister Mark Carney told National Post during a recent press conference that non-renewal on...

The issue of the finished-but-not-yet-opened Gordie Howe International Bridge continues to create ripples on both sides of the U.S.-Canada border, and far from the Michigan-Ontario crossing that is its epicentre. Among the more recent statements comes from Mike Levin, the Democratic incumbent from California’s 49th congressional district, serving in the U.S. House of Representatives since 2019. In a video posted to social media, Levin says: “There’s a brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada that is finished, it’s ready, and it’s sitting there empty because Donald Trump will not...
