Canada News Today

Canada's news, and your city's: from Victoria to St. John's, Iqaluit to Windsor. NOT A GOVERNMENT APP: Canada News is independent. It does not represent the Government of Canada, any province, Parliament or any government agency, and is not affiliated with them. Every source is listed under SOURCES. NEWS By topic (politics, Canada and the US, money and housing, immigration, Indigenous, wildfires, hockey, basketball and more) and by city, with paywalled stories marked. A notification at most once a day for what you follow, never at night. Tap a term under a headline (TFSA, riding) to see what it means. TODAY For your city, on its clock: Environment Canada's warnings, with alerts; the weather; air quality (AQHI) and wildfire smoke, with an alert at high risk; tonight's northern lights; wildfires near you; border waits both ways; the loonie and the Bank of Canada; earthquakes nearby; the next long weekend. OTTAWA Whether the House sits today, the bills moving through Parliament with their official summaries, and the latest votes with how each party voted. CALENDAR AND LEARN Your province's holidays, benefit payment dates (CCB, GST/HST credit, CPP and OAS), tax day, rate decisions, with reminders. A French phrase a day, and "Canada explained": 130 terms.

Alerts come minutes after the source issues them: in an emergency call 911. Next year's benefit dates are expected until published. Free, with a single banner ad. A one-time purchase removes it.

A completely revamped app. Canada's news and your city's, with notifications for what you follow; Environment Canada alerts, air quality and wildfire smoke; the northern lights; border waits; the loonie and the Bank of Canada; an Ottawa tab with Parliament's bills and votes; holidays and benefit dates by province with reminders; and a French phrase a day.
