The funeral home workers carried the modest poplar casket to a freshly dug grave. There, two cemetery staff paused for a few moments before lowering the box to its final resting place.
“This is someone whose life has ended and we take a moment to just think about that,” said Scott Miller, one of the cemetery workers.
What else can you expect when the Trudeau government actively works to impoverish its citizens.
The shocking Islamic State-inspired mass casualty terror plot targeting Toronto has scores of loose ends.
Foremost among them: How did the alleged father-son terror tag team get into Canada? When did they arrive? Under what circumstances? And were they vetted?
On Wednesday, law enforcement announced that they had thwarted what RCMP Supt. James Parr described a targeted attack in its “advanced” stages.
Canada’s government is preparing to unveil a suite of measures to clamp down on temporary immigration and has no plans to follow through right now on a broad program offering status to undocumented residents, the country’s immigration minister told Reuters.
“The era of uncapped programs to come into this country is quickly coming to an end. This is a big shift. You can’t just slam on the brakes and expect it to stop immediately,” Marc Miller said in an interview with Reuters on Thursday.

A Canadian warship was deployed to the Bering Strait in July to keep an eye on a Chinese polar research vessel as it navigated the passage between Russia and Alaska, underscoring Beijing’s growing interest in the region.
The HMCS Regina shadowed the Chinese Research Vessel Xue Long 2 sometime between July 7 when it left its home port of Esquimalt, B.C., and July 25 when it returned.
The Trudeau Liberals have abruptly scrubbed dozens of Government of Canada web pages detailing more than $24 billion in payments to COVID-19 contractors, per Blacklock’s Reporter.
The publicly-accessible database was deleted only weeks after Treasury Board President Anita Anand promised to “make sure we have transparency in government contracting.”
A new poll shows the share of Canadians feeling pessimistic about the federal government has reached a new high.
This should come as no surprise. Years of poor policies have left Canadians with a stagnant economy and declining living standards. Despite the Trudeau government’s recent focus on younger generations, young people appear to be the most pessimistic of all.
“Thoughtful, determined and focused.”
That’s how Liberal Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson described China’s climate policies at a press conference in Nova Scotia on Wednesday.
Worse than Soviet era Pravda.
Reality is teaching some important lessons to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about flirting with the ideal of virtually open borders. So are Canada’s premiers and the public.
Particularly in regard to asylum seekers.
For months B.C. Premier David Eby and Quebec Premier François Legault have been almost frantically trying to send a message to Trudeau and his childhood friend, Immigration Minister Marc Miller, that they should no longer indulge in their romantic rhetoric of the past.
It’s been about a year since Immigration Minister Marc Miller took up his post at Canada’s gates with promises to bring the flow of newcomers down to manageable levels, and the situation has only gotten worse.
In 2023 alone, 1.3 million people came to the country, growing the population by 3.2 per cent — that’s more than three times as seen in the United States. It’s a rate that would have been hard to fathom years ago: temporary foreign workers are up sevenfold since 2000, as is the international student population. Once on a gentle rise, the numbers took off in 2015, and became especially steep after the COVID pandemic.

OTTAWA — An advocate for ending violence against women is calling on a Liberal MP to apologize after shutting down her testimony during a parliamentary committee Wednesday by turning the committee’s discussion into a partisan debate over abortion.
It is time for Canadians to confront Poilievre’s assault on decency
“Have you no sense of decency, sir?”
This dramatic rebuke by lawyer Joseph Welch to U.S. Sen. Joseph McCarthy during a televised hearing in 1954 turned public opinion decisively against the senator’s infamous campaign to persecute his opponents with baseless accusations.
As Americans struggle to overcome a new political threat, it is time for Canadians to confront the assault on decency happening in our own country.
We live in a country where our Prime Minister in pure Maduro fashion freezes bank accounts to criminalize dissent.
A country where our PM declares us racist for questioning his society destroying mass immigration scam.
A nation where our PM taxes us to death and decrees in Great Leap Forward style ludicrous EV Mandates in the name of climate change.
We live in a Canada where our PM condones foreign interference so long as it benefits his party.
A state where our PM uses identity politics to divide and conquer so he might curry favor with ethnic vote blocs.
I have no idea what alternate reality the Star writer lives in because Trudeau’s Liberal government is the assault on decency.
Canada’s refugee system has been the envy of the world. It’s recognized as being orderly, fair and efficient when compared to any other western country.
But as the number of asylum seekers keeps surging here — and with the queue and processing times getting longer, the beleaguered system is in desperate need of a rethink to save it from spiraling out of control and being clogged up in endless backlogs.
It’s “overwhelmed” because Trudeau treats it as just another branch of the mass immigration scam.

Global Affairs Canada is warning more than 20,000 Canadians in Lebanon that they can’t rely on government evacuation flights if war engulfs that country.
The department says 21,399 Canadians have officially registered as being in Lebanon, though it expects many more are present in the country.
There should be no evacuation period.
OTTAWA—It’s the sort of race that ordinarily wouldn’t garner too much attention.
It’s a byelection. It’s not in highly-coveted Toronto. And it involves a riding that has been won by the same party since it first appeared on the ballot in 2015.
But in Montreal’s LaSalle-Émard-Verdun, the question of whether a Liberal stronghold is still a Liberal stronghold will soon be put to the test.
Twaddle. It is not a referendum on Trudeau’s destructive tenure as PM.
That hammer will fall election day.
Poll after poll for the past year has shown the majority of Canadian citizens despise Junior.
