Ottawa-imposed ‘airport rent’ is driving up cost of plane tickets, think tank finds

OTTAWA — A leading free-market think tank is calling on Ottawa to stop playing landlord to major airports, arguing that exorbitant land rental fees are driving up the cost of domestic air travel.

“Using airports as cash cows instead of treating them as critical infrastructure hurts families, workers, and patients who depend on reliable air service for treatment access,” says Samantha Dagres, the communications manager at the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI).

They really do not want you to travel.

Half of young Canadians spending more than 50% of earnings on rent

Roughly half of young renters and a third of tenants at all ages are spending the majority of their after-tax income on rent, according to a new report.

Experts say the survey, which was published by Rentals.ca this week, shows that the adage of limiting your rental expenses to one-third of your income is simply no longer possible for many Canadians – a situation that could threaten the ability of renters to adequately save for retirement.

I find it sickening that the Globe which advocates for continued mass immigration pretends to give a damn about anyone squeezed out of housing by corporate Canada’s imported scabs.

Stick a fork in ‘Elbows Up’

“Elbows Up” hasn’t been Prime Minister Mark Carney’s approach to dealing with U.S. President Donald Trump on tariffs ever since he won the April election and it’s time to consign the phrase to the dustbin of history.

While Carney advocated dollar-for-dollar tariffs against the U.S. during the Liberal leadership race, he quickly jettisoned the idea on becoming prime minister.

Sharren Haskel: I am Israel’s Canadian-born deputy foreign minister. Mark Carney is rewarding terrorist monsters

This week, the Toronto International Film Festival attempted to cancel, then reinstated, the screening of The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue, a documentary on a retired Israeli general’s successful attempt to rescue his family during the October 7, 2023, terror attacks by Hamas.

The organizers of TIFF reportedly claimed they needed Hamas’s permission to show the footage of the extreme violence from October 7 found on the GoPros of Hamas terrorists.

How absurd.

Muslim hate will not be stopped by recognizing a Pallie State and it won’t be stopped even if Israel were were wiped off the map.

Islam is a murder cult and they will eventually come for you.

GOLDSTEIN: Canada’s targets for cutting greenhouse gases fit the definition of insanity

After almost four decades of Canadian governments setting and failing to hit eight consecutive targets for reducing Canada’s industrial greenhouse gas emissions, surely it’s time to admit the targets are meaningless.

Far from being “aspirational” as supporters claim, they in fact deceive Canadians about the effectiveness of federal spending of more than $200 billion of taxpayers’ money on climate change (as of 2023) on 149 federal programs administered by 13 government departments, since the Liberal government came to power in 2015.

RUBENSTEIN: Is indigenous approval now mandatory?

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Prime Minister Mark Carney “revised” his first major Parliamentary bill as Canada’s leader on August 8, by mandating that industrial projects deemed fit for speedy approval “must” serve the interests of indigenous peoples.

This unilateral reinvention repudiates the legal text of Bill C-5, passed into law on June 26, which only states that indigenous interests “may” or “can” be considered.

Conservatives Urge Parliamentary Probe Into Government Spending on Repatriating Canadian ISIS Women

The Conservative Party is calling for the parliamentary public safety committee to investigate the federal government’s expenditure of at least $170,000 on repatriating from Syria Canadian women who had joined the ISIS terrorist group.

The letter signed by Conservative MPs asks the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security to convene immediately and investigate Global News’ reporting showing that Ottawa spent more than $170,000 for returning the eight women who had previously travelled to Syria to join ISIS.

Can the ZEV mandate survive political pressure and industry objections?

With the federal carbon tax dead and gone, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has found a new target among the Liberal government’s climate policies — the electric vehicle availability standard, otherwise known as the zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate.

“We will legalize, into the future, your right to drive a gas or diesel-powered truck or car by repealing the Liberal EV mandate,” Poilievre said last week, while restating his desire to see a number of Liberal policies repealed.

Decades after a PM got pied, the threat landscape in Canadian politics has changed

OTTAWA – When Prime Minister Jean Chrétien got hit in the face with a pie 25 years ago, the only thing hurt was his pride.

A quarter-century later, Canada’s security landscape has changed radically. Threats of violence against politicians have become far more common. What seemed like a harmless prank then looks more like a warning now.

“There is this view that you’re a politician, it’s all fair game,” said Catherine McKenna — who was herself the target of multiple threats of violence while she served as a federal minister.

The Trudeau regime was the most vile Canada has ever endured so it should be no wonder that they found themselves the target of a justifiably intense public anger.

Michael Taube: Of course globally focused Carney hasn’t opened his constituency office yet

Mark Carney has been Canada’s Prime Minister for slightly over 100 days. Yet, he still hasn’t done the one thing his predecessors did in short order: open a constituency office.

MPs of different parties often don’t have constituency offices for short periods of time. The reasons are usually straightforward and completely understandable, including moving locations and hiring new staff members. The matter is typically resolved quickly.

Liberal EV mandate is akin to ‘banning rural way of life,’ Poilievre says

OTTAWA — Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said the Liberal government’s electric vehicle sales mandate is akin to “banning rural life” as he promised a nationwide pressure campaign to scrap the policy.

Poilievre took a pause from his Albertan byelection campaign Thursday for a press event in Saskatchewan in which he lambasted the Liberal policy — colloquially known as the EV mandate — as an attack on farmers and rural Canada.

41 per cent of Canadians support Mark Carney’s move to recognize Palestinian state: poll

A plurality of Canadians believe Canada’s move to recognize a Palestinian state is a good idea, while nearly one-third of Canadians are against it, according to recent polling.

The polling by Leger for Postmedia found that 41 per cent of poll respondents support Prime Minister Mark Carney’s decision to recognize a state of Palestine. In late July, Carney’s office announced that if certain conditions were met, Canada would recognize such a state at the United Nations General Assembly in September.

It was an online survey.

GUNTER: Pure folly for Liberals to try to force electric vehicles on Canadians

The Liberals’ devotion to their EV (electric vehicle) mandate borders on the cultish. They are certain, as all True Believers are, that if only they believe passionately enough (and spend enough taxpayers’ money), they will be able to convince all Canadians to buy EVs.

Or they’ll force us to.

‘They’re increasingly skeptical’: Canadians say EV sales mandate ‘unrealistic,’ survey suggests

OTTAWA — An increasing majority of Canadians view the federal government’s goal of seeing all new vehicle sales be zero-emission by 2035 as “unrealistic” and believe the rule ought to the scrapped, a new survey suggests.

The polling firm Leger surveyed 1,617 respondents on their thoughts about the federal sales mandate for electric vehicles at the same time as Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government faces pressure from industry to abandon the policy.

Poilievre launches campaign to stop Carney’s gas car ban

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is launching a national campaign to stop what he calls Prime Minister Mark Carney’s law to end gas and diesel powered cars in Canada, warning it will drive up costs and end rural life.

Speaking at a Prairie farm today, Poilievre said Conservatives will table motions in Parliament, stage events at dealerships, pressure Liberal MPs in their ridings, and circulate petitions.
