Freeland’s Disney+ comment made her a villain, records show

Once upon a time, Chrystia Freeland attempted to relate to Canadians’ cost-of-living concerns with a personal anecdote — and it didn’t produce a fairy-tale ending.

“I personally, as a mother and wife, look carefully at my credit card bill once a month, and last Sunday I said to the kids, ‘You’re older now. You don’t watch Disney anymore. Let’s cut that Disney+ subscription,”‘ Freeland told Global News in an interview that aired on Nov. 6.

She went on to say: “I believe that I need to take exactly the same approach with the federal government’s finances, because that’s the money of Canadians.”

The real case for defunding the CBC isn’t the one Pierre Poilievre is making

The case for reforming medicare is not so that we can get even with the doctors. Yet that – reform as vengeance – is essentially the basis of Pierre Poilievre’s campaign to defund the CBC. The CBC says things that conflict with Conservative Party dogma. Therefore, a Conservative government will take away its funding. It isn’t a lot more complicated than that.

Canadians Skeptical of Climate Change Policies, Concerned About Added Financial Burdens: Report

Canadians who took part in a federal focus-group research study were skeptical about the government’s climate change policies, saying they would add financial burdens to households but do little to reduce emissions.

“It was felt that many federal actions such as the introduction of a federal price on carbon had placed too much of a financial burden on the individual and that not enough focus was being devoted to reducing the emissions of large businesses and corporations,” said the resulting report, titled “Continuous Qualitative Data Collection Of Canadians’ Views.”

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Twitter has quietly removed a policy against the “targeted misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals,” raising concerns that the Elon Musk-owned platform is becoming less safe for marginalized groups.

Twitter enacted the policy against deadnaming, or using a transgender person’s name before they transitioned, as well as purposefully using the wrong gender for someone as a form of harassment, in 2018.

The Trudeau family loves its holidays.

Of course, we all do. But most of us aren’t taking holidays that land us in the soup.

The most recent one, according to a CBC report published Monday, was that Justin Trudeau and his family — plus the assorted cadre of staff and bodyguards — travelled to Jamaica last year to stay at a luxurious resort owned by Peter Green, who also happens to be a donor to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.

Policies and promises have done nothing to make housing affordable

Opinion: We also learned last month that Canada’s five biggest banks are helping to keep house listings at record lows.

Back in 2015 and 2016, home prices in Vancouver and Toronto skyrocketed to record highs. Much of the attention was on foreign wealth being parked in real estate. Housewives and students were buying multi-million-dollar homes in Vancouver.
