Every year millions of dollars are lost to scams, from the more well-known ones, such as investment fraud or phishing emails, to new sophisticated AI tactics. Wes Lafortune with the Better Business Bureau shared some of the top scams of 2025 and how to stay safe.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre came after the Liberals and Prime Minister Mark Carney on Tuesday during question period ahead of a vote on a Conservative motion to force the Liberal government to reaffirm its commitment to a new pipeline to the West Coast. The motion also seeks to get a commitment from the Liberals to override the north British Columbia tanker ban if necessary in order to get that pipeline built. “Canada needs a pipeline to the Pacific to sell $30 billion of our energy overseas, outside of the U.S. market,” Poilievre said. He added that Carney “experienced a massive rebellion in his own caucus, but if he’s going to vote against his own words, how can Canadians believe his words?” “I would like to welcome the fact to my hearing, the fact for the first time ever in this house, the leader of the opposition has acknowledged the constitutional right of Indigenous people to full, free and fair consultation… the role of provinces in pipelines, but he hasn’t yet acknowledged the need for an industrial carbon price,” Carney shot back.
