Justin Trudeau announced on Monday that he’s headed for Washington next week. What will he and President Joe Biden be talking about, behind the scenes at the NATO summit?
Endurance might be one topic. It’s been a bad week for Trudeau and Biden — arguably their worst weeks — with increasingly open questions of whether either leader should be hanging on.
Ottawa is considering buying hotels to house the growing number of asylum seekers and to cut the cost of block-booking hotel rooms to accommodate them, Immigration Minister Marc Miller says.
The federal government has in the last few years taken out long leases on hotels to help provinces house thousands of refugee claimants. This year, Ottawa has been footing the bill for approximately 4,000 hotel rooms for 7,300 asylum seekers, many of whom have transferred from provincial shelters and churches, according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
That’s a great idea.
Create a hotel room shortage that kills off tourism and business travel with jacked up rates while providing fake refugees shelter at the expense of our own homeless.
This is a period of Liberal reflection, we are now told by Justin Trudeau himself. That is naturally needed to digest his party’s gut-punch by-election loss in Toronto-St. Paul’s.
And there’s another thing he didn’t mention: The drumbeat of Liberals calling for the Prime Minister to go.
Directors of a charitable foundation that struck a deal with Ottawa to sponsor the immigration of Afghan Sikhs to Canada made political donations to then-defence minister Harjit Sajjan’s Vancouver South Liberal riding association around the same time as Canadian special forces soldiers were instructed to rescue and airlift the group from Kabul.
Elections Canada records show that between them, these directors made thousands of dollars of personal donations to the Liberal Vancouver South Liberal riding association in August 2021. Canada was in the midst of a general election campaign that had begun August 16 and Mr. Sajjan was seeking re-election in the Vancouver South riding.
Fuck diversity.
If you want a preview of the next election campaign, just watch the Canada Day messages from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre. They were a study in contrast in style, tone, content and vision. They also illustrate why the Conservatives are 20 points ahead of the Liberals in the polls, and likely to remain so.
According to a public opinion survey conducted by Ipsos (on behalf of BILD), 90 per cent of people in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) agree there is a housing affordability issue in the GTA and 72 per cent of agree that there is not enough being done to address it. In addition, approximately half of renters and young people in the GTA say they plan to move out of the province or to the suburbs in order to buy a home. Such shifts and the loss of these younger demographics would have a significant, and dire, impact on the GTA’s social and economic landscape.
The fault for this lies squarely with Trudeau and his destructive mass immigration scam.

OTTAWA — Just four out of 10 Canadians think the deal between the Liberals and the NDP to keep the Trudeau government in power has been a good thing, with even 40 per cent of New Democrats unconvinced of the value of the agreement, a new poll suggests.
5 more alleged senior members of Iranian regime face deportation from Canada
Immigration officials have launched deportation proceedings against five more suspected members of the Iranian regime found in Canada, according to newly released figures.
The Canada Border Services Agency has alleged they held senior positions in Iran’s repressive government and has asked the Immigration and Refugee Board to hold hearings.
A federal program launched to increase hiring of black employees has failed to deliver, according to a Treasury Board report.
Blacklock’s Reporter says The Centre on Diversity and Inclusion, established in response to the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, has made little progress in four years, despite employee efforts.
A whopping 38 per cent now see Canada with the most extreme level of inequality, a 19 percentage point increase in five years
Hundreds rallied in northwest Winnipeg to call on the federal and provincial governments to allow more international workers to remain in Manitoba.
Protesters gathered at the city’s Adsum Park in The Maples on Sunday afternoon to demand that more people get their expiring work permits extended, among other things.
The federal government announced late last year it would stop offering an 18-month extension to post-graduate work permits, which began during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Students can’t find jobs? Gee how did that happen?
Especially difficult summer ahead for young people looking for jobs, economist says
Isabelle Burzese started looking for a summer job in February. Now, after finishing her first year of studies at Concordia University in Montreal, she’s back home with her family and she’s still looking. With expenses piling up, her search is becoming more and more urgent.
“I’m not looking to get a job for spending money or money to have fun, even though I would love to,” the 18-year-old from Toronto says. “It’s really for tuition and rent and groceries and things like that for next year.”
Do not believe a word that the business community or the government says about the need for mass immigration to offset labour shortages. They are evil liars.

The front-page headline demanded action: “Time to Close the Gates.” It was March 26, 1908. Centred on the page, a list of three recently murdered men and their four “supposed slayers” – their non-Anglo-Saxon, ethnic names unmissable in all-caps. “The Goth is at our own gates,” The Globe editorial warned.
“One has only to glance at this list to see that the Slav and the Italian are swelling the statistics of crime in this country.” The only effective cure for the “invasion” would be “the closing of the gates on the offscourings of the Slav and Latin races.”
This Globe piece is one of a small flurry of articles that have recently appeared expressing concern about Canadian attitudes toward immigration and or identity politics.
It’s not surprising that the paper of record for Canada’s Corporate cronies will have published 3 such pieces in that last week.
The elite have have sold Canadians a “patriotic myth” that immigration is always beneficial and that to oppose it is racist.
Someone is getting worried about their supply of cheap foreign labour hence the push to remind Canadians to know their place in the run-up to Canada Day.

Trudeau says he is ‘committed’ to staying as PM after byelection loss
Justin Trudeau says Monday he is “committed” to staying on as prime minister after the Liberals’ shocking Toronto-St. Paul’s byelection loss exactly one week ago.
“There’s always going to be lots of reflection after a tough loss, but there’s also so much to do,” Trudeau told CBC’s Heather Hiscox, answering questions about his future for the first time since the upset.
Before last week’s vote, a Conservative candidate hadn’t been competitive in the federal riding of Toronto-St. Paul’s since the 1980s. The party hadn’t won a seat in urban Toronto since the 2011 federal election.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s office declined to comment Sunday on a letter signed by several MPs calling for an immediate in-person national caucus meeting to discuss the party’s surprising by-election loss in Toronto-St. Paul’s.
A small group of MPs sent the letter to Liberal caucus chair Brenda Shanahan on Friday requesting the immediate meeting to discuss what they call the “extremely concerning” by-election results.
While Canada conducts studies to figure out how to resuscitate our domestic production of military ammunition, our allies are aggressively moving forward, modernizing their munitions facilities and ramping up outputs in support of Ukraine.
In the U.S., the Pentagon committed $6 billion to this drive for self-sufficiency in the production of critical ammunition. In just one year — combining Turkish technology with General Dynamics’ leadership and innovation — the Americans have built a greenfield ammunition factory in Mesquite, Texas, that will produce 30,000 to 40,000 rounds a month.
