01 📉🇨🇳🇮🇳Most Canadians have a negative view of China and India
New data from the non-profit Angus Reid Institute finds Canadians offering strongly negative assessments of two of the countries accused of meddling in Canadian elections.
🔹Four-in-five (79%) Canadians say they have an unfavourable view of China as favourability towards that country remains at a historic nadir.
🔹Further, positive appraisal of India has declined by 11-points in Canada since March 2023; a minority of one-third (33%) who say they view the country favourably are outnumbered by the majority (54%) who do not.

02 🏠 Every new home built requires $100,000 in infrastructure spending
The report, funded by the Canada Infrastructure Bank, estimated the average cost of infrastructure needed to support housing likely exceeds $100,000 for each newly built home. That includes funding for resources such as public transit, roads, water lines, schools, fire halls or recreational facilities.
Now the question. Where to get the money when the budget deficit is off the charts and there is a housing crisis already?

Two climate activists charged in a series of disruptive protests on Vancouver Island cannot use a "necessity defence" to avoid punishment, a B.C. judge has ruled.
Protesters Howard Breen and Melanie Murray argued in provincial court that the increasingly urgent threat of catastrophic consequences related to climate change should make their alleged criminal behaviour excusable.

13 Poilievre is the sole party leader forgoing access to classified report on foreign interference
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is the only federal party leader foregoing access to a classified national security and intelligence watchdog’s report that says the country’s intelligence services believe some parliamentarians are “semi-witting or witting” participants in foreign-interference efforts.
Initially, Mr. Poilievre and Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet both rejected offers for the access to classified reports because they said it would muzzle their public efforts to hold the government to account. However, in the last week, top intelligence officials have said that secrecy rules would not prevent leaders from acting on the information they receive.

14 Marc Miller says he's tired of people 'blaming immigrants for absolutely everything'
Federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller said Tuesday he was “quite tired of the fact that people are always blaming immigrants for absolutely everything,” after Quebec Premier François Legault attributed “100 per cent of the housing problem” to the increase in the number of people arriving on a temporary basis.
The increase in mortgages, in mortgage prices, has nothing to do with immigrants.
he said.
Is he saying it's all the government's fault?

18 Marc Miller defends $750M in immigration funding for Quebec, says B.C. premier was 'confused'
B.C. Premier David Eby was "confused" about the facts when he criticized the federal government this week for giving Quebec $750 million to manage asylum seekers, Immigration Minister Marc Miller said Tuesday.
I think perhaps there is some confusion on the premier's behalf as to what this money was for. The suggestion was it was for temporary residents. That is absolutely not the case.
[The funding is ] to compensate Quebec for two fiscal years of costs they've incurred for the disproportionate flow of asylum seekers. I think perhaps he was confused about what the money was for.

20 💰'Frustrated' B.C. premier says Quebec gets immigration money 'at the expense' of Western Canada
Federal immigration money is being “showered down” on Ontario and Quebec “at the expense” of Western Canada, British Columbia Premier David Eby said.
Eby said that Ottawa’s offer of $750 million to Quebec to help pay for a surge in temporary residents there is frustrating, and B.C. should also get a share.
According to Eby, there are 10,000 people coming to British Columbia every 37 days, refugees have to stay in homeless shelters and international students don’t have support.
