BC Ferries should not be allowed to go through with its plans to build new ships in China, after China hit Canada with a fresh round of tariffs, says Canada’s Opposition leader.

Pierre Poilievre is touting his by-election win in Alberta this week as a sign of political resilience, saying he will go on to hold the government accountable on such issues as crime, the economy and its commitment to electric-vehicle mandates.
