Poilievre is gonna be mean to Justin and CBC warns CBC

He made Justin cry.

In Poilievre, Liberals face a leader who gets under his opponents’ skin

A few days before he stepped into a boxing ring with Senator Patrick Brazeau in 2012, Justin Trudeau rose in the House of Commons and asked the Conservative government about its support for young people.

James Moore, the heritage minister at the time, stood to respond.

“My colleague will have to wait for the budget tomorrow but I know that he is very anxious to please Canadians,” Moore teased.

That’s a great kick-off – Hey remember when Justin beat up the drug and booze addicted Indian?

Inflation likely much higher than Statscan says

Now more than ever, Statscan needs to re-examine how it measures inflation

… A new paper from MEI director of research Valentin Petkantchin and senior economist Nathalie Elgrably-Lévy argues that the year-over-year change in the consumer price index, or CPI – the figure we commonly call the inflation rate, which sat at 7.6 per cent in July – has routinely understated the pace of consumer inflation this year.

They calculated that based on a more timely “speedometer” for prices, the annualized inflation pace exceeded 10 per cent from March through June, topping out at a massive 12.5 per cent in May – nearly five percentage points higher than the official inflation rate reported by Statistics Canada that month.

Shame on me for suggesting a politicized public service would finagle the numbers to help Trudeau!

Most Canadians indifferent to British monarchy, untouched by Queen’s death … says online survey

OTTAWA – A new poll suggests that while many Canadians plan to watch Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral next week, the vast majority have not been personally impacted by her passing and feel no attachment to the monarchy.

The poll from Leger and the Association of Canadian Studies also found that while some Canadians are happy about King Charles III taking the throne and others are not, most are largely indifferent to Canada’s new head of state.

The results, which are based on an online survey of 1,565 Canadians polled between Sept. 9 and 11, are among the first to assess how Canadians feel about the monarchy since the 96-year-old Queen died last week.

Canadians’ wealth suffers biggest drop on record as markets, real estate swoon

Canadians saw their collective net worth fall by the most on record in the second quarter as financial markets and residential real estate hit a rough patch, ending a streak of massive wealth generation during the previous two years of the pandemic.

Household net worth fell by $990-billion in the second quarter to $15.2-trillion, a decline of 6.1 per cent from the first quarter, Statistics Canada said Monday in a report. Despite the drop, household wealth was still nearly $3-trillion higher than before the pandemic.

‘We have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation’: Kamala Harris claims southern border is sealed in yet another word salad… despite crossings closing in on TWO MILLION

Vice President Kamala Harris insisted the U.S.-Mexico border is secure in a jumble of words on her ‘Meet the Press’ interview Sunday.

Harris blamed the Trump administration for a ‘broken’ immigration system.

‘I think that there is no question that we have to do what the president and I asked Congress to do, the first request we made: pass a bill to create a pathway to citizenship,’ Harris said. ‘The border is secure, but we also have a broken immigration system, in particular, over the last four years before we came in, and it needs to be fixed.’

The Sordid Saga of Hunter Biden’s Laptop

The most invasive data breach imaginable is a political scandal Democrats can’t just wish away.

Imagine the entirety of your digital existence plotted out before you: your accounts and passwords; your avatars; your contacts; every exchange of written dialogue; the full history of your logged interests, banal and forgettable and closely held; the note where you scrawled once-urgent word fragments that now make zero sense to you; the rabbit holes you fell down or the minor obsession or the thing that connected to the thing that led you to decide to do another thing that became a part of a part of a part of who you are, or a part of who you are to some people, or a part of who you are only to yourself, barely recognizable in the light of day. Your selfies. Your sexts. Your emails. Your calendar. Your to-do list. Your playlists. Your tabs.

Why Ukraine’s counter-offensive is working

The Kremlin is being fed fake news from the front

A Lawsuit Exposes the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Lies

The SPLC “shows reckless disregard for the truth and does not appear to perform any fact finding at all”.

Twenty-one years ago, Dustin Inman, a sixteen year old boy, lost his life to a Mexican illegal alien. That alien is still a wanted fugitive. Under the Trump administration, the ICE VOICE office was established to help victims of illegal aliens and Dustin’s killer appear on its most wanted list. In one of his numerous acts of calculated cruelty, Biden shut down ICE VOICE.

And two decades later Dustin’s killer is still out there.
