Quebec separatist leader holds Trudeau to ransom: ‘We saw an opportunity’

The leader of the Quebec independence party propping up the government of Justin Trudeau has insisted that the political lifeline depends on the quick passage of two pieces of legislation, and warned Canada’s embattled prime minister that he remains “very vulnerable”.

The Bloc Québécois leader, Yves-François Blanchet, told the Guardian the Liberals must act swiftly to enshrine protections for dairy farmers and boost payments to seniors to stave off a fatal vote of non-confidence. He warned that unless both pieces of legislation are passed into law by 29 October, his party would begin discussions with other parties to trigger a federal election.

Delusional Trudeau dishes on where he went wrong, what he did right and why he’s the one to beat Pierre Poilievre

Justin Trudeau dishes with Liberal MP on where he went wrong, what he did right and why he’s the one to beat Pierre Poilievre

OTTAWA—Under siege in the polls but fighting for a shot at a fourth term, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took to a backbench MP’s podcast to riff on why he thinks he deserves it.

In a nearly hour-long interview recorded Friday and published Tuesday, Trudeau gave more revealing answers to fellow political traveller Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith than he has to any journalist in months.

The prime minister conceded a few mistakes. But only a few. And he expressed little regret.

I think an intervention may be called for.

Canada’s many many Nazis as likely as Danishes to attack Jewish community over Gaza conflict anniversary intelligence report says

Extremist attack on Jewish community ‘realistic possibility,’ intelligence report says

… The government’s Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre wrote in a June 24 memo that it was monitoring “the rising tide of antisemitism and violent rhetoric associated with the conflict in Gaza with concern.”

“A lone actor attack—inspired by a range of ideological or religious extremism such as neo-Nazism or DAESH [ISIS] (Ed. Danishes)—targeting Jewish interests in Canada is a realistic possibility,” said a July 10 memo.

… The de-classified materials on the Canadian national security implications of the Hamas-Israel conflict were disclosed to Global News under the Access to Information Act.

Danishes are bad, evil and mean but Canada’s Nazis are a far greater risk.

Will the Bloc pull the plug on Trudeau if it’s pension and agriculture cartel demands aren’t met?

There’s a battle brewing over generational fairness as Bloc Québécois demands a pension hike

A debate over how Ottawa chooses to divide its spending among age cohorts is ramping up as the Bloc Québécois pushes the Liberal minority government to boost Old Age Security (OAS) payments.

Bloc Leader Yves-François Blanchet put forward a motion Tuesday demanding that the government move forward with legislation that would hike OAS payouts for seniors between the ages of 65 and 74.

The Bloc has said it will only continue supporting the Liberal government on future non-confidence votes if it gets an OAS hike before the end of this month. It also wants stronger trade protections for supply-managed farm sectors.

Blanchet has Junior by the short ones.

Geoff Russ: Only clowns label Canadians ‘settlers’

The division of this country into modernized factions of cowboys and Indians is fully embraced by public sector unions. This practice, however, does not resonate with the average Canadian — not by a long shot, according to the results of a Leger poll released last Friday.

Just 23 per cent of Canadians identify themselves as a “settler” or a “colonist.” Roughly half — 47 per cent — reject the label, while 30 per cent have no opinion or do not care.

Trudeau’s 3rd World Economy: Canadian Tire store in Toronto accused of exploiting temporary foreign workers

Trudeau’s Legacy: Indentured servitude and depressed wages for all.

The owner of a Canadian Tire store in Toronto is being investigated by the provincial and federal governments for allegedly mistreating and financially exploiting employees hired through Ottawa’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program.

At least 13 of those employees resigned or were fired by the store late last year, according to documents reviewed by The Globe and Mail and conversations with several of the workers.

… A spokesperson with Ontario’s Ministry of Labour, Training, Immigration and Skills Development confirmed to The Globe that the province is investigating Ezhil Natarajan, who owns and operates a Canadian Tire store in Etobicoke, which comprises Toronto’s west end.

Is it right for white people to condemn the dealer for simply living his culture?

The 2023 GSI estimates that on any given day in 2021, there were 11 million people living in modern slavery in India, the highest number of any country.

Want your DNA profile from the RCMP’s DNA bank? You can’t have it, a new ruling finds

OTTAWA – A person’s DNA profile may dictate who they are but, if it’s in the RCMP’s DNA bank, they aren’t allowed to have it.

That’s according to a first-of-its-kind decision published this summer by Information Commissioner Caroline Maynard. The ruling is an example of how the government can sometimes legally withhold even extremely personal data like one’s DNA profile in certain cases.

Liberal Canada’s lax immigration policies behind a plot to kill Jews in NYC, ‘largest attack since 9/11’

Americans are well aware of the security disaster of the Biden-Harris open southern border — including 400 illegal crossers who were flagged on the FBI terrorism watch list.

But an alarming new terrorism prosecution in New York now demands American attention and diplomatic pressure be turned on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s unprecedented mass immigration policies.

Liberals fall to third place in new poll — Trudeau forecast to lose his own riding

The latest poll by Nanos Research shows the Liberals have plummeted in popularity equivalent to that of the NDP — each party has 22% support, while the Conservatives have 42%.

Election modeller Charestiste based on the Nanos poll projects the Conservatives at 223 seats, the NDP at 47 seats and the Liberals at 38 seats. Bloc would have 32 seats, the Greens three and the PPC zero.

Justin losing his seat? That would be sweet.

Derek Burney: A wake-up call from RBC’s Dave McKay

Years ago, it was customary for Canadian bank CEOs and other senior business executives to opine candidly to shareholders and clients on public policy challenges facing Canada. As public attitudes and moods evolved, and because of deference to political correctness and woke trends or business prudence, executives became more circumspect, and interventions diminished in frequency and depth. Speeches adopted the word salad approach of many politicians, tilting to prevailing winds of likes and dislikes, while avoiding messages that might be construed as controversial or insensitive. Refreshingly, RBC’s CEO Dave McKay broke the conventional cone of silence recently in remarks to the Canadian Club in Toronto when he declared flatly that Canada is “definitely on the wrong path” and “we’ve got to make fundamental change to get back on the (right) track.” He cited specifically the need for a more competitive tax regime and a tighter relationship with the U.S.

It’s going to be very difficult to reverse the damage Trudeau has done, we are nearly a 3rd world country thanks to mass immigration from incompatible cultures, ruinous economic, environmental and social policy.

Canada’s New Young Conservatives

“Young people will change the world,” we often hear. And the implied change is always the same: a leftward shift. Youth are naturally rebellious, we’re told, and they’re bound to cast aside hidebound conservative ways. This has generally been true for Western and Central European youth, who have tended to lean left. The French coalition of far-left parties known as the New Popular Front got nearly half the 18- to 24-year-old vote and 38 percent of the 25- to 34-year-old vote in the last election, and the German Green Party would hold a majority today if only 18- to 34-year-olds voted. But now youth voting patterns seem to be changing. The surge of right-wing parties in recent European elections won significant support from people of all ages. And we can expect the proportion of right-wing youth to grow as liberal and left-wing parties get crazier. Indeed, this is what has happened in Canada.

Chinese-made EVs are now subject to a 100% tariff. What does this mean for Canadians?

Canada’s new tariff on electric vehicles from China will reverberate through a multitude of industries and could lead to repercussions well beyond the electric vehicle market, according to analysts.

The 100 per cent tariff on imports of Chinese-made EVs (and some hybrids), including cars, buses, trucks and delivery vehicles, takes effect on Tuesday after a 30-day consultation period over the summer. A 25 per cent surtax on steel and aluminum imports from China will kick in on Oct. 15.

Chinese-language media in Canada ‘dominated’ by Communist Party narratives: Report

Chinese-language media in this country are “dominated” by CCP “narratives and censorship of pro-democracy voices,” according to a top secret federal memo disclosed by the Commission on Foreign Interference.

The four-page memo from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service said CCP agents used “economic incentives” and other tactics to influence coverage by Chinese-language media in Canada. CSIS counted one million Canadian followers on the Chinese-language WeChat platform alone.
