Voyons is for the moment between seeing a claim and deciding what to believe.
How we work: We do not label something misinformation simply because it is partisan, controversial, or wrong in tone. We fact check claims shaping the Canadian information space, preserve factual kernels, distinguish uncertainty from falsity, and show the evidence behind each verdict.

All ClaimsCanada is deeply integrated with U.S. trade and protects some sectors heavily, but claims that it does 95% of its business with the U.S., blocks most U.S. farm goods, or is one of the world's highest-tariff countries materially overstate the evidence.
The proposal was real, but polling showed overwhelming Canadian opposition to joining the United States.
The U.S. can use “Lake America” for its own federal naming purposes, but that does not rename the lake for Canada or create new sovereignty. Historical U.S. claims to the lake also do not establish special ownership over the Canadian portion.
There is no evidence that Alberta's government is secretly preventing a referendum while pretending otherwise.
That was the federal rule, but it is being repealed. In August 2026 Ottawa formally proposed removing the 100%-by-2035 EV sales requirement and replacing it with a policy direction targeting 75% EV sales by 2035 and 90% by 2040.
Canada did take longer to validate several Gulfstream models, but available evidence does not show that Transport Canada blocked them to protect Bombardier. Technical airworthiness issues were part of the certification process, and all four disputed models were approved in February 2026.
Canada has a standing military and conducts domestic, NORAD, NATO and overseas operations. Its force is smaller than the U.S. military and has real readiness and procurement problems, but saying Canada has no military is an exaggeration.
A weak Canadian dollar can help exporters. But Canada does not target a low exchange rate: the loonie floats, and the Bank of Canada says it has not intervened to affect its value since 1998.
No. A viral video reused footage from Carney's real trade speech but fabricated his words to promote World Water Reserve.
Yes by a strict population-share benchmark, in both the House and especially the Senate. But the two chambers use different constitutional rules, and neither guarantees exact representation by population.
Aboriginal-title rulings can affect overlapping land interests, but the Cowichan decision did not order private homes seized or handed to a First Nation.
Some negotiating demands were real, but the full viral list was never officially released or verified.
A clear majority could trigger negotiations, but 50%+1 does not automatically make Alberta independent.
