[Chorus] 
 
This is my nation, my pride, 
My Temasek, my shining guide, 
My Singapura, my heart's core, 
My Singapore, the nation we adore..... 
 
[Verse 1] 
 
This land we shall cherish stands so grand, 
Our home of dreams, on this sand, 
Our country’s strong, sovereignty sure, 
Here we thrive, pure and secure. 
 
 
[Pre-chorus] 
This is me, this is we, this is us, 
Families and friends we bond, without fuss, 
In this land, our spirits soar, 
This is our country, our nation, our pride, now and more.

Small in size, yet hearts unfurled, 
Unshaken, unbroken, in the world, 
With every step, together we stride, 
With unwavering will, we won't be denied.

Our tiny island, where we belong, 
A nation of joy, integrity's roar, 
Prosperity's wave, on our shore.

Not Alone - Benjamin Kheng (NDP 2024 Dance Remix)

With Justin Trudeau stepping down as Prime Minister and the very real possibility of an federal election, Premier Doug Ford mulling over a snap provincial election, and President-elect Trump threatening a trade war, it's almost impossible to predict what 2025 will hold.

And yet, Toronto and other municipalities in Canada must muddle through as best they can and create an annual budget. That process has already started in Toronto.

To rate Trudeau's legacy (for better or worse) in Toronto, and to identify possible pitfalls and goals for the megacity's newest budget, we've put together a panel discussion featuring CivicAction CEO Leslie Woo and Spacing Senior Editor John Lorinc.

Episode 85: City Accounting for Global Chaos

Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - After trailing far behind in the polls for the better part of two years, the Liberal party’s propects appear to be on the rise nationally, and the gap between the Conservatives and NDP is narrowing in our riding. Canada’s two leading political forecasting websites, 338Canada and CBC’s poll tracker,  still show the Conservatives in the front, but no longer predict a Conservative majority. Last week Ipsos and EKOS both released polls showing the Liberal party edging into the lead. However Innovative Reseach,  Abacus Data, Leger, and Nanos all reported the Conservatives were still ahead.  

On Thursday, CBC’s Poll Tracker reported the weighed average of all these polls showing the Conservatives still had 40% of the popular vote, the Liberals trailing with 31%, NDP with 14% and Greens had only 4%.

338Canada’s projection, released Sunday, March 2, showed the gap narrowing. The Conservatives were still leading, but with 39% of the popular vote to the Liberals 33%. The NDP and Greens remained unchanged.

A special feature of 338Canada’s projections is they give breakdowns for every riding. 

North Island-Powell River is still regarded as a safe Conservative seat, but the gap between the two leading parties shrank 5% during the past week. The Conservatives now have 47%, NDP 29% and Greens 6%. If there was a Liberal candidate, 15% of the population may have chosen her or him. As there is no Liberal candidate, a significant number of those people would probably choose NDP. If they all did, there would only be a 3% gap between the Conservatives and NDP.   

Given the speed in which the political situation is changing, it is important to realize that none of this data was collected after Tuesday, February 25. On a National level, the gap between the two leading parties has most likely narrowed. Similarly, the NDP are probably doing better than what the projection shows for North Island-Powell River. 


Polls Suggest Gap Narrowing Nationally, And In Our Riding

Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - The election writ was dropped Sunday and the following day Cortes Currents published responses from the candidates in our riding. As they were either emails or excerpts from press releases, it is only on the web. However NDP candidate Tanille Johnston just sent in an audio clip as well. 

She’s referring to a meeting the Cortes Island Climate Action Network put on in Mansons Hall.  

“Hey everybody, just doing a little shout out. Thanks so much for having me a few weeks back. I really heard loud and clear your priorities of investing locally, especially in food sovereignty, climate mitigation, and how much investing locally really gets your best results for doing that kind of work on the ground.”

“So really excited that the writ has dropped and the campaign is launched.  On my way to qathet, and will be over in Powell River today. I have a full packed schedule and look forward to seeing you guys again soon,  bye.”

Shout Out From Tanille Johnston

Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - Bob Chamberlain, former Vice President of the Union of BC Indian Chiefs  and former elected chief of the Kwikwasut'inuxw Haxwa'mis First Nation is endorsing NDP candidate Tanille Johnson in North Island Powell River. 

“I just hope that your listeners are understanding and supportive of justice for First Nations people.” 

“I hope they'll vote for the NDP. I say that because I've been NDP my whole life. Back here I've got a sign when I ran for the NDP in Nanaimo."

"I hope that they will recognize that only the Liberals and the Conservatives have ever formed government in Canada federally. The situation we're trying to deal with and correct today is a result of red and blue. I have no faith that they'll do what's right,  from Prime Minister Trudeau's tearful acceptance of  the missing murdered indigenous women's report and the Truth and Reconciliation report - which he then did nothing with.”

“That's why I would encourage people to support Tanille. She's from here. She's got the lived experience of the North island, she understands .She's  very articulate, and has high concerns for the environment and employment. To me, she's an ideal candidate because she's First Nations, but she's not limited to that focus. Looking at what economy would make good sense, what does the environment need given the current global warming crisis, and what we need to do in our little area of the world to look after our environment.” 

Chief Bob Chamberlain endorses Tanille Johnson

Episode 87: Building Housing With Election Planks

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - The federal election in North Island–Powell River (NIPR) may be far closer than recent projections suggest, but the ‘progressive’ vote is split between three parties (Green. Liberal and NDP). Some people are urging voters to rally behind a single alternative to Conservative candidate Aaron Gunn.

The Votewell and Smart Voting websites both declared the strategic vote in our riding  is the NDP candidate Tanille Johnson. As of Thursday, April 17, Johnson became the 18th Canadian candidate officially endorsed by Lead Now. So did the participants in a recent virtual townhall meeting on Cortes Island.

Joshen’s obsession with EDM kicked off over two decades ago when eurodance and hands-up sounds grabbed his attention and refused to let go. What started as a spark quickly grew into a full-on obsession with trance music - his signature style and ultimate passion.

Hailing from Singapore, Joshen has lit up dance floors at iconic venues like Zouk Singapore, Yang, Avalon, Kyo, Mao, One Altimate & iKi, while also bringing his magic to international stages across Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. He’s also shared the spotlight with trance heavyweights like Aly & Fila, Solarstone, Indecent Noise, Sunlight State, Jordan Suckley, ReOrder, Driftmoon, Ferry Tayle, Temple One, and Max Graham - dropping melodic sounds that hit differently and keep crowds coming back for more.

Lately, Joshen’s been making waves both locally and globally, and he’s not stopping anytime soon. Never sticking to one lane, he’s been throwing down everything from Psytrance and Hardstyle to Bass House, Dubstep, EDM, and Techno - so buckle up because you never know what’s coming next. With his infectious energy, limitless creativity, and a mission to unite people through music, Joshen’s mission is simple: to bring people together, one beat at a time.
