Trudeauscu to invoke “Emergencies Act” says state propaganda organ CBC

Update CBC says Trudeauscu invoking “Emergencies Act”

Blair described the attitude around invoking the Emergencies Act, which has never been implemented before, as “appropriate caution” rather than “reticence.”

The law gives the federal government carte blanche to cope with a crisis.

The legislation, which replaced the War Measures Act, defines a national emergency as a temporary “urgent and critical situation” that “seriously endangers the lives, health or safety of Canadians and is of such proportions or nature as to exceed the capacity or authority of a province to deal with it.”

This government is done. Canada has begun to resemble the old Soviet Union just before the wall came down. But their dictators were less egomaniacal than Junior.

The propaganda war on the Canadian truckers

By now, most Americans have heard of the truckers’ actions happening north of the border. Based on lurid descriptions of the protests from the US media, they could be forgiven for thinking these protesters are a small bunch of nasty thugs and Nazis who must be put down immediately. Indeed, it seems American reporters and commentators have decided to project all of their hatred of Trumpists and deplorable workers generally on to the Canadian truckers.

‘Where‘s Trudo‘ Comic Brutally Mocks Canadian PM Justin Trudeau

The parody of Trudeau’s authoritarian Canada was created in the “Where’s Waldo” style by artist Bob Moran and features in comic form many of the outrageously, left-wing people and events that are occurring in Canada even as the Freedom Convoy is desperately trying to put a halt to some of it.

John Ivison: Do we need a new party for the politically ‘homeless’?

Is there room in the Canadian political marketplace for a new centrist party that rejects the tribalism being embraced by the Liberals and Conservatives? I’m increasingly of the mind that there is.

Maybe it’s just the effect of February in Canada but the dismal events of recent weeks have led me to the conclusion that our major parties are beyond renewal.

The nature of politics in the age of the algorithm is that you have to be polarizing to attract attention. Both the progressive left and populist right have stoked tribal emotions and the tribes are feeding off an unhealthy silage of fear and hatred.

The CPC can hardly be described as “right” let alone “far right.”

Russia Feels The Wrath of Justin! Canadian military trainers pulled out of Ukraine

Canadian military trainers were pulled out of Ukraine this weekend ahead of anticipated Russian military action, which allied intelligence agencies suggest could come this week.

CBC News has learned that the contingent of roughly 260 soldiers has arrived in Poland, but it’s unclear whether that will be their final destination.

The decision to suspend Operation Unifier, the largest allied training mission in the embattled eastern European country, came after both the United States and the United Kingdom ordered their own military trainers out of Ukraine.

Poor Ukraine.

Biden Administration Rolls Out $3 Billion EV Battery Program Focused On Domestic Manufacture

The Biden administration will invest nearly $3 billion to fund domestic battery manufacturing projects in the coming months, the Department of Energy announced Friday.

“As electric cars and trucks continue to grow in popularity within the United States and around the world, we must seize the chance to make advanced batteries — the heart of this growing industry — right here at home,” Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm said in a statement. “With funding from Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we’re making it possible to establish a thriving battery supply chain in the United States.”

This says they want to keep it all made in America with no scraps for Canada. This is another FU from Biden to Junior. Frankly I suspect most world leaders duck down a hallway when they see Trudeau approaching, no one treats him with respect and for good reason.

Two-thirds of Canadians support military force to end Ottawa protests: poll

A new poll finds more than two-thirds of Canadians would support the use of military force to help clear out Ottawa protesters, while support for the truckers has fallen to 20 per cent – both for what they are protesting and how they are going about it.

The latest survey by Maru Public Opinion finds 64 per cent approve using the Armed Forces to clear out trucks with heavy tows while 53 per cent support the use of force by Ottawa police to remove truckers, their families and others who refuse to leave. This includes the use of tear gas and other methods, with the understanding that such measures could result in injury.

The Military already nixed any such notion as illegal.

Doug Ford Is Acting As Justin Trudeau’s Attack Dog Against the Freedom Convoy

Ford despite being a Progress Conservative politician has been quite warm with Justin Trudeau over the last couple of years, even seeming to help him win reelection in 2021 by distancing himself from Erin O’Toole and complementing the Liberals leadership during COVID.

A Plan for a Canadian Conservative Revival

It is an open secret in Canada that the Conservative Party is dead in the water or, at any rate, in total disarray. Its last two leaders, Andrew Scheer and Erin O’Toole, were political duds who would not recognize a conservative principle if it held a gun to their heads, and both had to resign in disgrace for scuttling the Party’s electoral chances. Over the last two electoral cycles, the Party itself has posed no threat to the governing Liberals or to their petulant, adolescent leader Justin Trudeau—whom Jordan Peterson aptly called a “teenager”—a prime minister who, though triply vaccinated, tested positive for Covid while hectoring others to get vaccinated. The contradictions escaped him perfectly. The Conservatives had as little to say about this glaring instance of mental scotoma as they did about the fact that the nation’s leader went into hiding rather than face the truckers’ Freedom Convoy when it arrived in Ottawa.

Carson Jerema: Border blockades show Canadian incompetence is the biggest threat, not insurrection

The ongoing blockade at the Ambassador Bridge is nothing short of a colossal failure of the Canadian state to assert its authority over one of its most basic functions: securing the border. That the federal Liberal government has so far refused to take full responsibility, declaring it a local policing issue, is an incredible embarrassment. The greatest threat to Canada right now is not insurrection or foreign interference, but the incompetency baked into the country.

Gov. Whitmer Says It’s ‘Downright Dangerous’ for Conservative Media to Be ‘Inciting’ Trucker Protest

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) told CNN on Thursday that is dangerous for conservative media to be covering the ongoing Canadian truckers protest in a light that doesn’t smear them as lawbreakers or racists.

Truckers in Canada have taken the extra step to block the Ambassador Bridge that connects Detriot, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario, where at least 25 percent of all trade between the U.S. and Canada takes place. Two other ports of entry along the U.S.-Canadian border have also been blocked by protesters calling for an end of COVID-related mandates.
