A Political Trial Unfolds in Canada—and the Coutts Four Are Exonerated

Justin Trudeau’s political prisoners have officially been exonerated. A jury in Lethbridge, Alberta found the remaining two defendants of the Coutts Four, Tony Olienick and Chris Carbert, not guilty. The men had been charged with conspiracy to murder charges as a result of their participation in the non-violent Truckers Freedom Convoy in February 2022, and they had been held in custody ever since, denied bail in spite of no history of violence or criminal records.

Their 30-month incarceration and subsequent legal victory are not just the tale of authoritarian overreach by the Trudeau administration. They tell the story of the wider political battle between the professional managerial class throughout the West and the working class over whom they rule—and the cost to four working-class men of fighting back.

Joe Oliver: Four critical endgames are looming that could change the world

Around the world, endgames are looming in four high-stakes political, environmental and military disputes. The results will resonate well beyond the immediate protagonists.

Here at home, a Liberal government in its death throes is engaged in cringeworthy acts of desperation. The prime minister used his officials to publicly chastise his deputy PM for failing to prettify his economic and fiscal debacles. Then, predictably, he failed to persuade Mark Carney to board a foundering vessel with no lifeboats. Unless Trudeau jumps ship early to avoid electoral obliteration, long-suffering Canadians will have to wait 15 months for liberation from: high prices, unaffordable housing, profligate spending, rising taxes, massive deficits, intrusive regulations, divisive identity politics, alienating woke ideology, regional tensions, international humiliation and the absence of moral leadership. Whenever exactly he takes over, Pierre Poilievre will face a monumental task to undo the damage.

Michael Higgins: Shoplifting rates show how tough life has become in Trudeau’s Canada

Canada is turning into a nation of shoplifters, which is less an indictment of the criminal and more a sad reflection on our government.

Shoplifting increased 18 per cent in 2023, with 155,280 reported incidents, according to Statistics Canada. And that increase built on 2022, which saw a 31 per cent rise from the previous year.

Every crime tells a story, but some generalizations can be made about certain categories of offences.

Trudeau’s EV mandate will break the bank

We don’t know all the inevitable costs for Trudeau’s EV mandate, but everything we do know shows we can’t afford it

Alberta’s energy regulator recently warned people to stop using kitchen appliances because the electricity grid was at risk of blacking out.

Albertans were told to stop cooking on stoves and washing clothes in warm water.

You know, modern life, circa 1955.

The government also told us to not charge electric cars.

If we’re being told to stop using toasters, how are we going to charge our government-mandated EVs?

FINLAYSON: Corporate head offices are fleeing Canada

Canada is losing corporate head offices.

Between 2012 and 2022, one-in-20 head offices closed or merged with other companies, according to Statistics Canada data, which tracks the number of large and mid-sized Canadian-based companies over time. Head office employment has also dwindled, dropping by around 6% since 2012.

The LPC’s lunatics are often in cahoots with our corporate welfare loons.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Liberal immigration policy risks turning Canada into terrorist haven

The federal Liberal government has a lot of policy failures to answer for: a sluggish economy, ballooning debt and numerous foreign policy fiascoes. But its biggest failure is on the most crucial of files: immigration.

Immigration is crucial because Canada depends on newcomers to fuel both population and economic growth: with a fertility rate of 1.33 children per woman, we are simply not replacing ourselves. Yet improperly managed immigration contributes to a host of social problems, including our current housing shortage and, even more disturbingly, the security of the country itself.

Tories reject allegation they are behind bot posts after Poilievre rally

OTTAWA – The Conservatives say they have no connection to a rash of conspicuously similar social-media posts that flooded the X platform following a Pierre Poilievre event in northern Ontario last week.

The Conservative leader held a rally at a conference centre in Kirkland Lake on July 31, to what appears in a video to be a packed room of several hundred people.

“No public events scheduled” – The PM is on a national campaign tour. He lies about it every day.

Here’s Justin Trudeau at the Saldenah Mas Camp in Toronto on July 18. Volunteers spend months making costumes every year for the Toronto Caribbean Festival. It’s a fantastic tradition. My father, who lived in Barbados for a while, used to drive us up from Sarnia every year for the parade.

The prime minister’s public itinerary, which is emailed daily to members of the Parliamentary Press Gallery and posted on his website, said that on July 18 he’d be in Ottawa for the Change of Command ceremony. It acknowledged no other public event.

He’s campaigning on your dime – Conservatives 42, Liberals 25, NDP 17 > Concern about economy on the rise

Conservatives demand government explain how terror suspects immigrated to Canada

Conservative House Leader Andrew Scheer says Canadians have a right to know how a man with links to a foreign terror group evaded Canada’s screening process to immigrate to Canada and become a citizen.

Sixty-two-year-old Ahmed Fouad Mostafa Eldidi and his adult son, Mostafa Eldidi, were arrested in Richmond Hill, Ont. last week and face nine different terrorism charges, including conspiracy to commit murder on behalf of the terror group Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

Federal government announces crackdown on temporary foreign worker program misuse

Canadian Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault announced Tuesday that the government is cracking down on Canada’s temporary foreign worker program in a bid to curb fraud.

The temporary foreign worker (TFW) program has ballooned over the years, with much higher use by non-agricultural sectors, such as fast food restaurants and health care providers. With the increased use, there have been mounting allegations that the program is being misused by some employers.

FORSETH: Too many, too soon… half the country calls for immigration slow down

Canadians are divided over record-high immigration numbers. Despite growing community resentment, the NDP-Liberal government plans to admit 485,000 in 2024, 500,000 in 2025, and then stabilize at the 500,000 level. This policy is irresponsible.

The community experience is that these levels must be lowered to achieve social integration, job market balance, and reasonable housing. Historically, 250,000 immigrants and 20,000 refugees worked and this was supported by Canadians.

Peter Menzies: Canada’s Gamble With the Digital Services Tax May End Badly

Canada seems to be having difficulty understanding and regulating the internet.

That’s an easy conclusion to reach given the track record and negative responses so far to the Online News Act, the Online Streaming Act, and the Digital Services Tax.

When did the Trudeau gov’t do anything right?

Google Violated Antitrust Laws in Online Search, Judge Rules

Google acted illegally to maintain a monopoly in online search, a federal judge ruled on Monday, a landmark decision that strikes at the power of tech giants in the modern internet era and that may fundamentally alter the way they do business.

Judge Amit P. Mehta of U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia said in a 277-page ruling that Google had abused a monopoly over the search business. The Justice Department and states had sued Google, accusing it of illegally cementing its dominance, in part, by paying other companies, like Apple and Samsung, billions of dollars a year to have Google automatically handle search queries on their smartphones and web browsers.

“Google is a monopolist, and it has acted as one to maintain its monopoly,” Judge Mehta said in his ruling.

Kill a fallacy to save immigration

… Above all, it’s time to discard the misguided notion that the purpose of immigration is to fill labour shortages and build a bigger work force. That idea has been promoted by Canada’s business associations and adopted by the Liberal government.

More immigration doesn’t necessarily reduce labour shortages. A bigger labour force won’t necessarily make Canada richer. But a better labour force will.

Canada is run by greedy stupid people. It is entirely possible that the continued mass import of incompatible cultures will result in our own UK style anti-immigration riots.

Batya Ungar-Sargon on antisemitism & the demonization of the working class by Jewish leadership: “The American working class is our bulwark against becoming like Canada, becoming like Europe”

Batya Ungar-Sargon on antisemitism & the demonization of the working class by Jewish leadership: “The American working class is our bulwark against becoming like Canada, becoming like Europe”

This clip will begin at roughly the 34 minute mark.

The segment I posted yesterday was edited to exclude the reference to the antisemitism of Canada and Europe.

I maintain my belief that the “silence” of previously reliable support noted by the Jewish community stems at least in part from the foolish embrace of racist policies like DEI and CRT by Jewish leadership.

Batya Ungar-Sargon is the first from the Jewish community to speak out about the folly of that choice that I am aware of.

I don’t believe she has a Canadian counterpart but I would love to be introduced to one if such a person exists.

As she notes of America’s leadership I suspect our Swells are wondering why the Trannies and BLM get a spot on the DEI hierarchy of victimhood and they don’t.

It’s a coveted designation as it allows “Open Season On Whitey” without repercussions.

She is not wrong in her assessment of Canada given our streets are daily given over to the Muslim mob and their useful idiots on the left.

How many of you have been labelled “islamophobes” or “racists” or “white supremacists” by the so called “anti-racists”, “Thought leaders” and journalists of the Jewish community and their allies?

Over the years all those types have taken their shots at me for having the audacity to speak out against Islam and mass immigration.
