As Canada's April 28 federal election nears, both leading candidates for the next Prime Minister, Liberal Party leader Mark Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilevre, are campaigning on promises to fast-track commodity <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/canada" rel="noreferrer noopener">projects of national interest</a>.
Speaking at a campaign stop in Calgary, Carney vowed to transform Canada into" the world's leading energy superpower, "highlighting a strategy based on energy security, trade diversification, and long-term competitiveness.
"We are going to aggressively develop projects that are in the national interest in order to protect Canada's energy security, diversify our trade, and enhance our long-term competitiveness — all while reducing emissions," he <a target="_blank" href="https://liberal.ca/mark-carneys-liberals-to-make-canada-the-worlds-leading-energy-superpower/" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> in a statement.
Carney's platform includes forming a Major Federal Projects Office and centralizing large-scale infrastructure and energy development oversight. The office would operate under a "one project, one review "model to eliminate duplication in environmental assessments between federal and provincial governments, delivering decisions within two years.
He also proposed a C$5 billion ($3.55 billion) Trade Diversification Corridor Fund to improve infrastructure and access to export markets and expanded tax credits for critical minerals exploration.
Meanwhile, Conservative leader Poilievre has framed the past decade under Liberal leadership as a period of economic stagnation.
"After the Lost Liberal decade, Canada is poorer, weaker, and more dependent on the United States than ever before, especially as a market for our natural resources," he <a target="_blank" href="https://liberal.ca/mark-carneys-liberals-to-make-canada-the-worlds-leading-energy-superpower/" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> in a statement.
He blamed excessive regulations for stifling investment and, if elected, has vowed to approve 10 stalled projects immediately, including Suncor's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SU#NYSE">SU</a>) Base Mine Extension and LNG Canada's Phase II expansion.
Poilievre's "One-and-Done" policy would create a Rapid Resource Project Office to consolidate federal and provincial approvals under a single authority. He promised one application process, one environmental review, and a strict one-year deadline for decisions—with a target of six months. Additionally, he has pledged to repeal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.parl.ca/documentviewer/en/42-1/bill/c-69/first-reading" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bill C-69</a>, which critics call the "No Pipelines Law," and lift Ottawa's emissions cap on oil and gas production.
Regardless of the election's victor, both leading candidates believe that natural resources are essential to Canada's economic sovereignty and a key defense against President Donald Trump's aggressive trade policies. CBC News <a target="_blank" href="https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/poll-tracker/canada/" rel="noreferrer noopener">polls</a> currently have Carney in the lead at 44%, while Poilievre trails at 37.2%.
The 2025 uncertainty has already influenced Canada's investment climate, as domestically-listed firms raised just $2 billion in Q1, down from $2.9 billion in the same period last year, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-01/trade-war-saps-canadian-share-sale-market-despite-metals-deals" rel="noreferrer noopener">per</a> Bloomberg.
"Whatever thesis you have for making your investment today could be very different from a month, an hour, a year from now," said Grant Kernaghan, CEO of Citigroup Global Markets Canada. "This is not, for the most part, a positive backdrop just because there's too much volatility."

As more consumers embrace mobile apps and digital wallets, traditional banking, with its in-person visits and waiting in long lines, is gradually becoming a thing of the past. Over the past few years, we&#8217;ve witnessed a fundamental shift in how people manage their money.
In 2024,<a href="https://www.forrester.com/press-newsroom/forresters-2024-north-american-digital-experience-review/"> over 60%</a> of banking customers in the U.S. and Canada said that it's their desire to be able to complete any banking task via a mobile app. This isn't just a trend — it's a new norm. McKinsey's reports also<a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/financial-services/our-insights/the-state-of-retail-banking-profitability-and-growth-in-the-era-of-digital-and-ai#:~:text=Globally%2C%20the%20share%20of%20consumers,over%20the%20same%20time%20period"> show</a> that between 2020 and 2023, the share of consumers using mobile banking globally jumped by 18%, reaching 57%.
Digital banking is no longer an option; it's an expectation. And as we go through 2025, the digital banking landscape is poised for even more change. But with new opportunities come new challenges. The question is: are banks truly ready for this transformation?
The Key Trends Defining Digital Banking in 2025
Let's start with what's changing. Digital banking today is about more than just offering a mobile app. It's about creating seamless real-time experiences that meet evolving consumer needs and preferences.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are at the core of this evolution. Banks are increasingly exploring ways to use AI to personalise customer journeys and get ahead of their desires with tailored advice. At the same time, AI has a prominent part to play in security and operation efficiency, helping streamline many internal processes and detect fraud much faster and with greater precision than humans can manage manually. Soon enough, AI won't be just an "add-on" tool anymore — it will be a normal part of the user experience.
Then, there's the shift toward real-time banking. Consumers these days don't want to wait. Whether it's payments, account updates, or financial advice, the demand for immediacy and access to 24/7 service is shaping how banks must shape their systems and approaches. This also ties in with the previous point about AI — automating a lot of their workflows helps banks become faster in their responses so they can satisfy customers better. And the same automation allows banks themselves to scale faster by cutting costs, reducing the likelihood of errors, and allowing human workers to focus on more strategic, high-value tasks.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, we're seeing a growing number of partnerships between banks and fintech companies. For a long time, the two sides have been competitors, but by now, the smartest banks have already realised that they don't have to waste time building all the innovative solutions themselves.
If they can just build bridges with fintechs, they can get access to those products far more easily. And that, in turn, will allow them to retain their value in the rapidly digitising financial environment.
But even as the digital future looks bright, the path toward it isn't without obstacles.
The Pitfalls Banks Must Address
While great strides are being made, not all banks are moving at the same pace. One of the biggest hurdles is outdated infrastructure. Many traditional banks still rely on legacy systems that were built decades ago and weren't really meant to support modern-day solutions. They don't have the agility required for real-time digital services that are in demand today.
So adapting their strategies for the digital frontier means rethinking the tech stack from the ground up. And that is not an easy thing to do, at all. That's the main reason why I believe banks shouldn't fear fintech collaborations that we covered earlier — it's one of the smartest ways to stay relevant.
At the same time, there's the issue of digital inclusion. While digital banking works well for tech-savvy users, it can leave others behind. Populations that are less comfortable with technology — particularly the older generation — face a double challenge: navigating unfamiliar digital tools and staying safe while doing so. These individuals are more vulnerable to scams and fraud, and as physical branches of banks continue to shut down, these people find themselves in an unfavourable position.
A recent survey revealed that almost half of Americans are concerned about the loss of local bank offices. For many, these are not just places to manage money but essential touchpoints for trust and support, and now they are increasingly getting left behind.
Finally, since we already touched on fraud, cybersecurity also needs to be mentioned. A shift to fully digital operations means increased exposure to cyber threats. From data breaches to sophisticated scams and identity theft schemes, banks must invest heavily in safety measures to protect both customer data and their own reputations. Cyber risks are one of the top concerns in the banking sector, and regulatory pressure will only keep mounting. We can't expect things to become any easier.

What Comes Next?
Digital banking is no longer a futuristic concept — it's our present reality. But moving forward means more than just launching a new app or an AI-powered chatbot. It requires a strategic approach — a commitment to innovation, infrastructure upgrades, customer education, and cybersecurity.
The banks that will thrive in 2025 and beyond are those that view digital transformation not as a list of boxes to check but as a long-term journey. By embracing new technologies, forming smart partnerships, and putting customers — all customers — at the center of their strategies, they can build the kind of trust and loyalty that will define the next generation of banking.
Because at the end of the day, digital banking isn't just about tech. It's about people.

Expanded compliance now includes Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 3 Pro Cine, completing Class C5 coverage across core M3 series models
TEL AVIV, Israel, April 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ParaZero Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PRZO#NASDAQ">PRZO</a>) (the "company" or "ParaZero"), an aerospace company focused on safety systems for commercial unmanned aerial systems and counter UAS systems, today announced an extension of its European regulatory compliance under Class C5 for its SafeAir&#x2122; system designed for DJI's Mavic 3 drone series.
Following the recent inclusion of the Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 3 Pro Cine submodels, ParaZero's SafeAir system now achieves full Class C5 conformity across the following DJI Mavic 3 platforms:
<ul>
<li>Mavic 3 Enterprise (Mavic 3E)</li>
<li>Mavic 3 Thermal (Mavic 3T)</li>
<li>Mavic 3 Pro</li>
<li>Mavic 3 Pro Cine</li>
</ul>
This certification extension follows confirmation that the Mavic 3 Pro and Pro Cine units now carry Class C2 markings from DJI, making them eligible for enhanced operational permissions under the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) guidelines for urban and sensitive airspace operations.
"With this expanded certification, we are proud to complete our Class C5 coverage for the DJI Mavic 3 line," said Boaz Shetzer, CEO of ParaZero. "Our goal is to equip drone operators with advanced safety solutions that unlock greater regulatory flexibility. This is especially important for enterprise users operating in densely populated or sensitive areas."
Class C5 conformity enables drone operations under the Specific Category in Europe, particularly for missions that require flying in dense urban areas, as outlined in EASA's guidelines. ParaZero's SafeAir system provides autonomous emergency response features including real-time flight monitoring, situational awareness, and a patented ballistic parachute system.

The first one, on 1/3/2021, happened during the bear market that started in March of 2000, when the dot-com bubble popped. That bear market didn&#8217;t bottom until October 9th, 2002.&nbsp;

Did it make sense for Apple shares to rally more than 15% on news of President Trump&#8217;s 90-day pause on tariffs excluding China? 90% of Apple&#8217;s products are still made in China. That rally seemed irrational to us, so we faded it.&nbsp;
We also placed a couple of bullish bets made attractive by the liquidity drought due to the unwinding of the basis trade.&nbsp;
