“Climate action can’t wait. Since 2015, Canada has been a committed partner in the fight against climate change, and as we move to a net-zero future, we will continue to do our part to cut pollution and build a cleaner future for everyone.”
After which Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau flew somewhere in the area of 400,000 kilometres in private jets over a six-year period. As reported by the National Post in April, 2022, Trudeau has flown nearly 128,000 km in the past 10 months.
Our message is ‘Do not come around us suggesting euthanasia’ when we are in a vulnerable, defenseless position.
Two of Canada’s men’s world junior hockey teams are being investigated by police following alleged group sexual assaults in 2003 and 2018.
Halifax Regional Police confirmed on Friday that they are investigating a historic assault at the world junior hockey championships in 2003 and shortly afterwards the force in London, Ont., announced that it is re-opening its investigation into an incident involving members of the 2018 team.
RCAF to ‘protect Canadian interests in space’ with new division
The Royal Canadian Air Force’s newest division is focused on extraterrestrial matters.
A reorganization of the existing space-focused team will now be known as 3 Canadian Space Division, with Brig.-Gen. Mike Adamson in command.
Defence Minister Anita Anand calls space a “critical domain for national security,” and says the division is part of building a military that can respond to “tomorrow’s threats.”
(CNN) — Anyone who’s been to an airport recently can see that demand for travel is back in a big way. What’s not back with a vengeance are the resources needed to handle the crush of air travelers.
Add summer weather to staffing issues at airports and airlines and you have a perfect storm of delays and cancellations.
At one North American airport — Toronto Pearson International Airport in Canada — more than half of the scheduled flights between May 26 and July 19 were delayed, according to data compiled for CNN Travel by flight tracking site FlightAware.
Allegations that former Unifor head Jerry Dias received a $50,000 kickback from a rapid test supplier he promoted to employers have left Canada’s largest private-sector union reeling.
Dias allegedly offered half of that money to his assistant Chris MacDonald, who reported the breach to Unifor and filed a formal complaint.
The Star has obtained the summary of an independent workplace investigation commissioned by Unifor, as well as 1,600 pages of minutes detailing how the union’s senior leadership dealt with the fallout. The investigation found that Dias tried to impede the probe into the alleged kickback scandal by pressuring the whistleblower to drop their complaint, a breach of the union’s ethics.
As most adults recognize, human relationships can take on many forms. A similar principle can be applied to relations between government and its citizens. Some are healthy and productive, while others are steeped in toxicity.
In an authentic democracy, government are mandated to maximize benefits to the general public. Their purpose is one of management– to optimize well being in key categories– socially, economically, culturally. Stability is based on relative affinity between government and the people.
Authoritarian states are founded on different principles. The goal of government is one of social conformity. To control not only behaviour, but human thought, is an ideal within totalitarian societies.
Police in Windsor, Ont., have charged two people alleged to have been organizers of the convoy blockade at the Ambassador Bridge international border crossing more than five months ago.
“During the course of the protest, the Windsor Police Service along with partnering policing agencies worked together to identify participants and the organizers/leaders involved,” a WPS release Thursday says.
Nycole Dicredico, 42, and William Laframboise, 41, of Windsor are both charged with mischief.
Germany’s foreign minister said Berlin warned Ottawa it could be forced to suspend military and economic aid to Ukraine if a Russian gas pipeline turbine stranded in Montreal, a result of Canadian economic sanctions, isn’t returned.
Annalena Baerbock said the German government told Canada if the missing turbine led to a stoppage of natural gas from Russia, it could spark popular uprisings and force Berlin to halt support for Ukraine. The Ukrainian government is largely dependent on Western aid as it fights off a military assault by Russia that began in late February.
Play that tape to the end – Germany halts support and a weak alliance supporting Ukraine crumbles.
Unrest forces the repeal and or cancellation of green-scam legislation in Germany and elsewhere.
Where does that leave Junior? Without cover to implement his green-scam plans.
When I survey the current roster of those who have been empowered to govern Canada, it is hard to avoid the onset of severe depression. None are serious people, none even remotely competent, all are driven by the ideological drivel of the day, and they are to a man and woman decoupled from the ordinary folk who make — or made — this country run.
Moreover, beginning with the prime minister and descending to the least member of cabinet, these are people who seem to have no idea what real work and economic survival consist of. Passing legislation on climate change, health policies, agriculture, energy, and supply-and-manufacturing sectors that almost inevitably tend to harm the prospects of the actual people affected while the legislators themselves are protected from the ravages of their virtue comprises the trademark of the parasitic class, which disqualifies the present bunch from serving in their official capacity. (It is only fair to mention parenthetically an astronaut and a hockey goaltender, but neither now serves in cabinet, and neither was especially distinguished.)
Justin Trudeau can take solace from the fact that inflation probably won’t get much worse than June’s reading of 8.1%. The Canadian leader’s political problems, however, are just beginning.
Statistics Canada said Wednesday that annual consumer price gains hit their highest since January 1983, a week after the Bank of Canada surprised markets by hiking interest rates by a full percentage point to beat down inflationary pressures.
Those back-to-back signals make clear that the overheating economy no longer needs the large budget deficits that have characterized Trudeau’s reign as prime minister.
Canadians have shifted their views dramatically when it comes to vaccine passports.
According to a new Angus Reid survey, just 25% of Canadians want vaccine passports to continue.
To get a sense of the shift, 70% supported them in September of 2021.
Support for mask mandates has also dropped dramatically.
Canadian bookstore giant Indigo is refusing to sell The Freedom Convoy: The Inside Story of Three Weeks that Shook the World in its stores – despite the book being a best-seller.
Written by True North senior journalist Andrew Lawton, the book combines Lawton’s reporting and exclusive interviews with organizers and strives to tell the whole story of what happened in Ottawa during the convoy.
In a statement to the National Post, Indigo said it is not selling the book in its stores because they have limited shelf space for books.
According to reports, government’s implementation of the ArriveCan application is functioning like a plague upon Canadian travellers, as well as the travel industry in general.
