Can We Trust Experts?
Commentary Experts have squandered their credibility in recent public failures. The repeated misjudgments by public health experts over the past year have demonstrated that they didn’t know how to deal with the pandemic.

Budget Officer Says Liberals’ Gun Buyback Could Cost up to $756 Million
OTTAWA—The parliamentary budget officer says it could cost the government $756 million to buy back guns now prohibited in the country, depending on how many there are in Canada and how the Liberals structure the program.

Victims’ Rights Advocates Weigh in on Ottawa’s Plan to Axe Minimum Sentences

Confiscating Firearms From Law-Abiding Owners Won’t Solve Gun Violence
