B.C. will only accept 1,100 new immigrant applications with nominations focusing on health care
The British Columbia government says the odds of new applications from immigrants looking to be accepted into its nominee program this year have dropped to near zero for anyone other than health workers or entrepreneurs after the federal government slashed the number of available slots.
The program, which help immigrants already living in Canada gain permanent residency if they fill key jobs, will accept 1,100 new applications this year, mainly for doctors, nurses and other health professionals as well as entrepreneurs.
It says most of the remaining 2,900 slots will be used to nominate some of the applications it has already received.

🔍City of Richmond under scrutiny for gift card spending
The City of Richmond faces calls for an investigation after spending nearly $450,000 in taxpayer funds on restaurant gift cards over three years.
Documents reveal significant discrepancies between reported and actual expenditures. Initially, the city stated costs were $32,800 (2022), $71,550 (2023), and $71,300 (2024), but actual figures were $156,000, $218,000, and $124,000, respectively.
The city claims the cards were for employee recognition, but an anonymous employee reported arbitrary distribution, sparking criticism amid a 6 percent tax hike planned for 2025.

🚨🗳 Conservatives left without candidate in Quebec Centre
Elections Canada has rejected Chanie Thériault, the Conservative Party’s candidate for Quebec Centre, due to incomplete nomination papers. This non-appealable decision leaves the Conservatives without a contender against former Liberal minister Jean-Yves Duclos. The Bloc Québécois is gaining momentum in the absence of a Conservative rival.
The Conservatives claim Thériault’s exclusion violates her constitutional rights, but Elections Canada insists the Canada Elections Act does not allow for appeals.

Poilievre promises tougher ethics rules, takes aim at Carney’s assets
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to tighten financial transparency rules for elected officials -- and is using that promise to take aim at Liberal Leader Mark Carney.
He said this rule would have forced Carney to register as a lobbyist when he advised former prime minister Justin Trudeau through the Liberal party.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to tighten financial transparency rules for elected officials -- and is using that promise to take aim at Liberal Leader Mark Carney.
We will eliminate the lobbying loophole and require anyone who is acting as an adviser to government officials to declare themselves and register as a lobbyist, whenever they are advising on matters that touch upon their financial interests or that of their company.
He said this rule would have forced Carney to register as a lobbyist when he advised former prime minister Justin Trudeau through the Liberal party.

🗳🇨🇳 Liberal candidate Peter Yuen, chosen to replace Paul Chiang, linked to pro-Beijing groups, events
The Liberal candidate selected by Mark Carney to replace one who dropped out over a China-related controversy is a member of a Beijing-friendly lobby organization and has given talks at events honouring a Toronto group that advocates for the annexation of Taiwan by China.
Onetime Toronto police deputy chief Peter Yuen, who is now carrying the Liberal banner in the Toronto-area riding of Markham-Unionville, succeeded Paul Chiang.
The former MP stepped down April 1 after news broke that he had talked to reporters about how someone could take a Conservative candidate and human-rights advocate to the Chinese consulate to claim a bounty put on him by Hong Kong authorities.
