Freeland Took Part in Private WEF Davos Session on Ukraine Financing

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland participated in an undisclosed session on the financing of Ukraine during her visit to the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos earlier this year, an official document shows.

The information was revealed in an Inquiry of Ministry tabled by the government on March 29 in response to an order paper from Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis.

The private session attended by Freeland was not listed in her public itinerary and neither did it appear in the public program of the WEF.

It’s important that Canadians not know what the hell Chrystia is up to.

Tom Mulcair: Trudeau Liberals have become the Phoenix pay system of Canadian governments

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault had to admit the obvious during a recent interview. Appearing Sunday on CTV’s Question Period with Vassy Kapelos, Guilbeault explained that there will indeed be a cost to families for the carbon tax.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wore a bright green tie to last week’s budget announcement. It was supposed to be a nod to his big new vision for a green economy of the future. While there are worthwhile initiatives in the budget, everything Trudeau and the Liberals say on the environment and the economy has to be measured against their past performance. It’s been empty promise after empty promise, with no results.

I hope he just pretends to pursue the EV folly. We may save some money if he follows his usual suck and blow routine.

Why Chinese interference is an everyday problem for many Canadians: ‘They brainwash people’

Dan Hao was once a wealthy entrepreneur in China. Now, he’s in self-imposed exile in Vancouver working as a contractor — with an international warrant out for his arrest.

Hao fled to Vancouver in 2019 after, he says, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) forcibly took over the securities brokerage firm he was running. In the years since, Hao has become a vocal protester of the CCP and is now the leader of the Vancouver branch of the Democratic Party of China — activities, he says, that have made him and his group the target of harassment campaigns.

Growing number of Canadians believe big grocery chains are profiteering from food inflation, survey finds

A growing number of Canadians believe big grocery chains are profiteering from food inflation and unnecessarily pushing prices higher according to a new survey released Tuesday.

The survey, conducted by Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University, found that 30 per cent of Canadians think grocery chain price gouging is the main reason food prices have been rising in Canada. In Ontario, 31.7 per cent of respondents believed grocery chain price gouging was the main cause of high grocery bills.

Trudeau government continues using Communist Chinese steel in new navy patrol ships

Canadian government doesn’t scale back on Chinese steel in new navy patrol ships

Canada has yet to determine how much Chinese steel and equipment will go into its new naval warships, but it didn’t scale back on such products for its Arctic and offshore patrol vessels even though concerns were raised in 2018.

You have to admit that China and its assets have got very good value for their donations to Trudeau’s foundation and election campaigns.

Ex-bureaucrat pleads guilty to stealing $47.4M from Ontario government, gets measly10 years in prison

… While he had been initially charged with the theft of COVID-19 relief funds, he also admitted to stealing an additional $36.6 million as part of an elaborate “fee-for-service” computer scheme dating back to 2010.

… “I am very deeply sorry for my misconduct for a very long time,” said Madan, who earned $176,608-a-year as the Ministry of Education’s information technology leader on the Support for Families program until he was terminated in October 2020.

“I am very, very sorry to the taxpayers of Ontario. I know that nobody trusts me anymore. I am ready to face the consequences of my wrongdoing,” he said, appearing gaunt and sporting rumpled clothing.

 

10 years? It’s Canada so he’ll be drinking margaritas in Hyderabad in less than 4.

Ottawa bends to U.S. push to purchase strategic hangar in Arctic sought by Chinese buyer

They made Justin cry.

The U.S. military has been prodding Ottawa to buy a privately owned hangar adjacent to a NORAD airbase in the Arctic community of Inuvik, after a Chinese buyer expressed interest in taking over the facility.

For nearly a year, Ottawa resisted American pressure over the property, located near a strategic piece of the continent’s air-defence infrastructure that would make a prime target for foreign surveillance. The Canadian government had previously leased the hangar to shelter military aircraft, but argued it no longer had need of it.

Canadian troops in Poland not being reimbursed for meals

Canadian troops in Poland are having to buy their own food but aren’t being reimbursed, causing hardships for their families back home.

The Canadian soldiers are in Poland to train Ukrainian military personnel but since Canada did not send military cooks on the mission, the troops were told to eat at local restaurants.

But there is a massive backlog with the Canadian Forces reimbursing the soldiers for those costs, sending some of them thousands of dollars into debt. Their families contacted this newspaper to complain about the situation they say is causing financial stress at home.

So what’s the issue? Did they have a make-up supply emergency for the tranny Brigade and needed bucks in a hurry? Or did they go native and start embezzling funds from the military? Or did Justin need the money for his 6K a night hotel?

And the CAF wonders at their recruiting shortfalls.

Don Martin: Poilievre has a nagging problem or two he has to fix if he wants to replace Trudeau as prime minister

… Somewhere along the bumpy post-Harper road, Poilievre and his Reform-era sidekicks calcified their old-school principles and appear ready to accept a dug-in defeat over a softened-image victory.

Why? It would seem so easy for Poilievre to stick with a few economic policy essentials, advocate for inflation-whacked demographics, harp on Trudeau’s endless stream of missteps and steer clear of flirting with Freedom Convoy alumni, far-right European politicians and controversial commentator Jordan Peterson.

And yet . . . he doesn’t.

Few will change their mind about Justin, he has a stubborn base and a bought media. Poilievre can make some cosmetic changes to his line of attack but the fact remains there is little difference between the LPC and CPC on substantive issues such as mass immigration. I wonder if the ever increasing numbers of non-voters reflects the resigned acceptance of a Canada lost.

Sincere effort or ‘cover-up?’ Canadians split on interference probe intentions: poll

Canadians are split on whether the federal government’s recently-announced probes into allegations of foreign election interference are a sincere effort to get to the truth or an attempt to cover up what is alleged to have happened, a new poll suggests.

The Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News and released Tuesday found 52 per cent of those surveyed think the probes, and the appointment of a special rapporteur to oversee them, are genuine. Forty-eight per cent, meanwhile, think “the investigation is a cover-up.”

An on-line poll with an oversized sample of Beijing Fifth Columnists conducted  by a Liberal friendly pollster. That’s my story and I’m stickin to it.

Alberta Calls for Repeal of Federal Carbon Tax

As the federal carbon tax rises—costing Albertans more than others, according to a recent government report—Alberta’s finance minister says the government should “eliminate the tax all together.”

“We urge the federal government to take the affordability crisis seriously and to immediately cancel the increase to the federal carbon tax, or better yet, eliminate the tax all together,” said Minister of Finance Travis Toews in a statement released April 1, the day the carbon price on fuel rose 30 percent.

VPD deputy chief ‘appalled’ by online criticism after police allowed cross-dressers to run amok at protest

The deputy chief of the Vancouver Police Department says he is “appalled” by the “vile and abusive comments” officers have received on Twitter after a Friday rally in the city turned violent.

Deputy Chief Howard Chow took to the platform to respond to online criticism of the department’s policing tactics and for not making arrests at the International Transgender Day of Visibility rally.

Police issued a news release Saturday saying they had begun investigating “violent confrontations” that occurred when people attending the demonstration confronted a group of counter-protesters inside Vancouver’s Grandview Park.

How a Canadian judge erred in ordering the repatriation of suspected ISIS members

In a January 2023 Federal Court decision, the government of Canada was ordered to request repatriation of four suspected ISIS members currently being held in Syria.

Lawrence Greenspon, who represents three of the detainees, said the decision “covered all the bases and covered them well” and that an appeal would therefore be difficult for the government to pursue. Similarly, socialist activist Matthew Behrens described the decision as an “important ruling with global human rights implications.”

Nonetheless, the federal government is appealing the decision and oral arguments were recently held at the Federal Court of Appeal in Toronto.

Kelly McParland: Chrystia Freeland’s budget is gas for the inflation fire

The funny thing about Chrystia Freeland’s latest budget is that everyone knew what she was going to do, even as she gave speeches insisting she wasn’t going to do it.

What everyone expected was that she would announce a big plan to spend billions and billions more dollars on top of the hundreds of billions the Trudeau government has already borrowed and spent in its seven years of power. The Liberals don’t have the new billions any more than they had the previous billions. They just borrow it. Since 2015 the Trudeau Liberals have spent at least $500 billion they didn’t have, almost doubling the debt of all the prime ministers that went before them.
