I Once Believed Canadians Would Demand Better. Fifty Years On, I’m Not So Sure: Clement

OTTAWA — For most of my career, I believed that if Canadians truly understood the scale of criminal infiltration, foreign interference, and systemic mismanagement within our national institutions, they would demand better. I still believe that.

But after the past several years—marked by mounting revelations, official denials, and a troubling reluctance to confront hard truths—I have come to believe something else as well: silence is no longer an option.

WAGNER: Canada’s fatal turn — the federal election of 1980

Pierre Trudeau alleged father of Canada’s worst Prime Minister

Canada faced a fork in the road in the 1980 federal election: stick with the centrist Progressive Conservative government of Joe Clark, or turn hard left with the Pierre Trudeau Liberals. Canada — or more accurately, Eastern Canada — chose Trudeau.

The die was cast, and Canada would never be the same. In his final four years in office, Trudeau would fundamentally transform Canada, and not in a good way. It’s like the country fell off a cliff, politically speaking.

Geoff Russ: Carney cozying up to China aligns us with those who would destroy us

Prime Minister Mark Carney is going to China next week to discuss trade with President Xi Jinping, just as American power is moving hard and fast to curtail or eliminate Chinese influence in the Western Hemisphere. Canada has nothing to gain from isolating itself from the United States or the West in the short term, just to stick it to Donald Trump.

UAE sees Muslim Brotherhood as a problem. Why not Canada?

The United Arab Emirates has dropped British universities from a list of schools their citizens can study at under government scholarship. The reason according to the Financial Times in London, which broke the story, is over concerns that students will become radicalized in Britain due to the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood.

OLDCORN: Liberals $200 million racist slush fund

Ottawa’s latest endowment isn’t ‘equity’ — it’s state-sanctioned discrimination against every Canadian who doesn’t fit its racial criteria.

Another week, another multi-million dollar segregation of your tax dollars by the federal government. This time, it’s a so-called “Black-led Philanthropic Endowment Fund,” which is a permanent $200 million pot of money, courtesy of Budget 2021, reserved exclusively for “Black-led and Black-serving organizations.”

Carney’s Beijing Visit Sends a ‘Deeply Troubling Signal’: China Watchers Alarmed by PM’s Trip

Chinese Canadian pro-democracy activist Sheng Xue says the timing of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s visit to China next week “sends a deeply troubling signal,” given the United States, Canada’s closest ally, is taking action to curb the regime’s reach in the Western Hemisphere.

Carney will meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Premier Li Qiang, and business leaders during his visit to China from Jan. 13 to Jan. 17, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said. Discussions are expected to revolve around trade, energy, agriculture, and international security.

Freeland resignation shakes up already fluid situation in House of Commons

Former cabinet minister Chrystia Freeland is officially vacating her seat in the House of Commons on Friday, leaving the Liberal government — which is within striking distance of a majority — one MP down for the time being.

Freeland’s resignation adds to what was an already fluid situation in the House of Commons when MPs left Ottawa in December. The Liberals had picked up an extra seat on the final sitting day when former Conservative Michael Ma crossed the floor to the governing party — joining Chris d’Entremont who defected to the Liberals in November.

Report by LPC linked Eurasia Group gins up the fear Canada could be hit hardest by U.S. political upheaval

Canada could be hit hardest by U.S. political upheaval, report warns

A new global risk assessment is warning that no country would be more “profoundly affected” by a political upheaval in the U.S. than Canada.

Published Monday, the Eurasia Group’s “Top Risks For 2026″ report cites deep economic, security and geographic ties that leave Canada especially exposed to instability south of the border.

Eurasia Group, a political risk consultancy, identifies what it calls a potential U.S. “political revolution” – driven by U.S. President Donald Trump’s efforts to consolidate power, “capture the machinery of government, and weaponize it against his enemies” – as the most significant threats to global stability this year.


Carney’s wife worked at Eurasia as does Butts.  I’m sure they are well hedged against any anticipated market downturn this report may cause.

Geoff Russ: Immigration made affordability worse. Liberals gaslighted us all

Did the Liberal government lie about the effects of mass immigration, or simply get it wrong? It is almost certainly a heady mix of both. Canadians were told not to notice what was happening right in front of them, and they have every reason to be angry about the impact it had on their lives, most notably on affordability or the sudden emergence of shady “career” colleges in strip malls.

Ottawa announces $200M for black-led organizations

The federal government has announced plans to create a $200-million endowment fund intended to provide long-term financial support to black-led, black-focused and black-serving organizations across Canada.

The announcement was made at the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia, during an event marking the launch of Black History Month.

Looks like slimy vote buying identity politics paid for with tax payer money to me.

Estimated 2,500 undeclared foreign agents operate in Canada: Ottawa

OTTAWA — The federal government estimates there are nearly 2,500 businesses or people in Canada working surreptitiously on behalf of foreign states to influence local politics and governments who will need to register publicly.

That’s according to proposed regulations for Canada’s long-awaited foreign agent registry published on Saturday.

Paying for Trudeau’s decade of neglect

It isn’t possible to hate this evil man too much.

Rapidly changing global events make clear that Canadians are now paying a steep price for the lost decade of economic growth under the government of former prime minister Justin Trudeau.

Where the previous Liberal government should have focused on making Canada an energy superpower by expanding our energy infrastructure, given our vast oil and natural gas resources, it instead downplayed them, using the ridiculous argument that the age of fossil fuels was ending.
