Public divided on Bill 5 but say Indigenous rights are more important than speed: poll
Public sentiment is divided on the Ford government's controversial new mining law, according to fresh polling, which indicates people are in favour of speeding up projects but not at the expense of First Nation rights or labour laws. New polling from Liason Strategies for the National Ethnic Press and Media Council of Canada gauged the mood of Ontarians as the government passed Bill 5 into law. The legislation makes a number of changes, among them is the power for the government to create so-called special economic zones, where municipal, environmental or labour laws could be bypassed. The government has indicated the Ring of Fire will be one such area, potentially along with Highway 401 and Ontario's fleet of nuclear power stations. The law's passage at Queen's Park last week sparked a storm of protests and backlash from First Nations leaders, who fear it will infringe on their rights and labour unions, who worry about workers' rights. Story continues below advertisement First Nations groups, in particular, have promised a summer of disruption in response to the legislation — potentially blocking railways, highways and mines in the north.

Sign up for breaking National newsletter Sign Up By providing your email address, you have read and agree to Global News' Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy Liaison's polling shows public opinion on the legislation itself is evenly split. About half of those polled (49 per cent) said they were following the legislation somewhat or very closely as it passed through the legislature. Opinion of its value was also split. Forty-four per cent of those polled said they were in favour of it, while 41 per cent said they were opposed. Fifteen per cent of people said they were unsure. 'Given the poll's margin of error, this is a pretty close result,' David Valentin, principal at Liason Strategies, said in an interview on Focus Ontario. 'It's not probably where the premier wants to see it, which is somewhere closer to 60 or 65 per cent, but it's also not where the opposition would like to see it, with overwhelming opposition. So, we've got a sort of mixed result.' The poll also asked people to rank various issues against the importance of fast-tracking key construction projects. Sixty-three per cent of respondents said fast-tracking was more important than municipal bylaws, and 58 per cent favoured speeding up projects over following environmental regulations. Story continues below advertisement On the other hand, 64 per cent of people said respecting Indigenous rights was more important than speeding up projects, and 56 per cent of those polled said it was more important to follow labour laws than to speed up projects. The polling points to public opinion sitting behind two groups who have been most vocal in their opposition to Bill 5. 'It shows you that when it comes to Indigenous leaders and labour leaders, they've gotten their message out, their message has resonated, and Ontarians agree with them: Yeah, you can speed up the process, but you're not going to suspend labour laws,' Valentin said. Last week, Bill 5 received Royal Assent and became law, with Ontario Premier Doug Ford saying he wants to designate the Ring of Fire as a special economic zone 'as quickly as possible.' At the same time, the government is promising to consult with First Nations leaders before any major changes are made using the new powers. Valentin said the lack of examples for what a special economic zone will be was potentially making it harder for people to form a strong opinion in favour or against the legislation. 'What does it actually mean? Which regulations, which laws are going to be suspended? Which groups are ultimately going to be impacted?' he said. 'They've written the law so they can do a lot of things — OK, what are the specifics of that going to be? I think that might be why people perhaps have a hard time understanding what the ultimate effects of the bill are.'

Tories support Liberal defence spending hike, but still want a budget
"All of this will require a budget," Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre told reporters Conversative Leader Pierre Poilievre addresses reporters on Donald Trump's tariffs in the foyer of West Block in Ottawa, Ont. on Tuesday, March 4 2025. Photo by Bryan Passifiume / TORONTO SUN OTTAWA — While the Tories support the PM's plans to greatly bolster Canada's defence spending, they still want figures in black and white.

Create Account Speaking to reporters ahead of Question Period on Monday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre renewed his calls for the Mark Carney Liberals to release a budget sooner rather than later. 'All of this will require a budget,' Poilievre said. 'A budget that not only puts this money forward, clearly identifies where it comes from, but cuts waste and bureaucracy, consultants, foreign aid, corporate welfare and other areas so that the necessary increase in the military does not come as an inflationary burden on the backs of Canadian taxpayers.' Intense backlash to the government's decision to forego a budget this year prompted the PM to walk back his previous assertions, promising one in the fall. The Conservatives have said they prefer to see one tabled before the House of Commons rises for the summer next week — tabling a motion in the House of Commons on Monday calling for exactly that.

'This prime minister says that he wants to be held to account based on what Canadians are paying for their groceries,' Tory MP Michael Barrett said during Monday's Question Period. 'But instead of putting forward a budget, or bringing down grocery prices, he's introduced a half-trillion dollars in what we can only assume is more inflationary spending.' Quietly released last month during the visit of King Charles, the federal government's main estimates outlined a spending plan worth $487 billion.

'After another lost decade of Liberals cuts and mismanagement and back-office bureaucracy, of boondoggles and wasted money on bungled projects, our military has never been weaker.' Poilievre reaffirmed his party's calls for a strong Canadian military with a tangible presence in the north — including at least one permanent base, new fighter jets and surveillance aircraft, and new ships including icebreakers. Filling CAF's massive recruitment gaps is also a priority, he said. bpassifiume@ X: @bryanpassifiume RECOMMENDED VIDEO Olympics Columnists Celebrity Olympics Canada

EDITORIAL: Meeting NATO's 2% target the right move
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney walks as he greets Canadian troops of the 4th Canadian Division as he attends a tour of the Fort York Armoury in Toronto on June 9, 2025 in Toronto. Carney has pledged to meet NATO's 2% spending pledge this year. Photo by Cole Burston / GETTY IMAGES Provided it is done competently, we agree with Prime Minister Mark Carney's announcement Monday that Canada, at long last, will meet its NATO commitment to increase military spending to 2% of gross domestic product (GDP) in this fiscal year.

Create Account That's five years ahead of Carney's previous promise to meet the 2% target by 2030. We're so far behind — Canada currently spends 1.4% of GDP on defence annually — that NATO is already considering a new target for member nations to spend 5% of GDP on defence. Canada's failure to meet the 2% target, set by NATO in 2006, has been a long-standing national embarrassment. It has eaten away at our credibility and our effectiveness on issues of global security and international conflicts. It has justifiably upset many of our NATO allies for not pulling our own weight and, most recently, angered U.S. President Donald Trump who, on this issue, has a valid point. At the end of the Second World War, Canada had the world's fourth-largest navy after the U.S., U.K and former Soviet Union. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. At the end of the Korean War, Canada was spending 7% of GDP on defence. Today, we have members of our military relying on food donations to make ends meet while being sent into armed conflicts — where they continue to serve honourably — with aging and obsolete equipment. This is a national disgrace. Canada's submarines, ships, aircraft, military vehicles and artillery are all in desperate need of upgrading, as is our military presence in the Arctic, given the growing interest in its mineral resources by hostile countries such as Russia and China. No country can claim to be a sovereign nation unless it has the ability to monitor and, where necessary, counter incursions into its territory. Our concern is with Carney's pledge to 'ensure that every dollar is invested wisely, including by prioritizing made-in-Canada manufacturing and supply chains.' Read More That's not because of the intent — we agree with it — but because there are so many examples of military spending that have turned into fiascoes and boondoggles by previous governments. We're also concerned that Carney is making this major announcement on defence spending in advance of this year's federal budget and how the increased spending on defence will impact the government's overall finances.
