Show Notes
Today, we're looking at the ongoing protests in Iran as reports over the weekend suggested the Islamist regime carried out widespread violence against demonstrators — an action President Trump has warned could lead to U.S. strikes on the country.
Plus, rumours have been circulating online about the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada working together to ban the Elon Musk-owned social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), a claim AI and Digital Minister Evan Solomon disputed.
And finally, a new report from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation reveals how much bloat the Liberals have added to the federal bureaucracy over the last 10 years, with government staffers expanding by 99,000 and more than a billion dollars being handed out in bonuses, despite the continued decline in Canadians' living standards.
