Operation Economic Outcast Sanctions Eight Canadian Money Services Businesses Enabling Iranian Regime

WASHINGTON—Today, as part of Operation Economic Outcast, the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated eight money services businesses based in Canada that enable the Iranian regime, sanctioned entities associated with the regime, and other illicit actors that move assets into and out of Iran. These companies facilitate the exchange of Iranian rials and other currencies for digital assets to enable international transactions involving Iran. Many of these businesses have facilitated transactions with sanctioned Iranian digital asset exchanges, as well as with digital asset addresses associated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

“Canada cannot be a safe haven for illicit financial facilitators that provide sanctions evasion services to the Iranian regime and its proxies,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent. “Treasury will pursue and disrupt the Iranian regime’s financial channels anywhere in the world.”


Carney wants Canada balkanized by mass immigration so a united front cannot be mounted against his pals China, Iran, India  and the drug cartels.

Conservatives accuse Carney of hiding record immigration numbers

Conservatives accuse Carney of hiding record immigration numbers

OTTAWA — Conservative immigration critic Michelle Rempel Garner accused Prime Minister Mark Carney on Friday of concealing plans that could allow as many as 654,000 people to obtain permanent residency in Canada next year, well above the government’s official target of 380,000.

In a statement released a day after the Liberals tabled their 2026 federal budget, Rempel Garner said the government’s immigration plan contains additional measures that could push admissions beyond the previous record of roughly 484,000 set in 2024.

Carney’s bet on economic growth — and the risks that come with it

Mark Carney is making a bet.

He believes massive public investing now will position the Canadian economy to grow in spite of the trade war and the shifting winds of global geopolitics.

By the 2030-31 fiscal year, the federal government will shoulder $85.5 billion in annual public debt charges. By then, Carney hopes the bet will have paid off and the economy will have undergone a transformation.

Budget 2026: Ottawa eases off defence spending increases despite NATO commitments

The federal government is reducing the scale of its defence spending increases in its 2026 budget, which also projects no further progress toward meeting Canada’s NATO military expenditure targets beyond the next fiscal year.

Ottawa’s math suggests that even by 2030, Canada will still be roughly $37-billion short of the annual military-spending level needed to reach its commitment to bring core military spending to 3.5 per cent of GDP by 2035.

Canada’s ambassador to the European Union is playing down the rise of far-right groups in Europe amid Ottawa’s push for closer ties with the 27-member bloc.

“I think people need to be a bit cautious about getting overly concerned about some of the developments with respect to stronger parties on the right,” the ambassador, Jonathan Wilkinson, told the Senate committee on foreign affairs and international trade during a virtual appearance on Thursday.

Just 8.4 per cent said Canada should accept more, while 5.9 per cent were unsure.

Remember, remember the fifth of November: the day Prime Minister Mark Carney turned Canada’s finances to ember.

It would not surprise me if Carney, the former governor of the Bank of England and a British citizen from 2018-2025, chose Nov. 5 to release his second budget. It is the date on which the United Kingdom commemorates Bonfire Night, a celebration of the monarchy’s survival after Guy Fawkes’ plot to blow up Parliament in 1605 was foiled.

Guess who will pay for high-speed rail cost overruns?

Guess who will pay for high-speed rail cost overruns?

The federal government’s proposed Alto high-speed rail line to connect Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City is still in the early stages of planning. Taxpayers want to know: What’s it going to cost? Alto’s preliminary estimate is $60-$90 billion. The Parliamentary Budget Officer recently estimated Alto’s construction costs at $75-$113 billion.

Evidence from high-speed rail projects around the world suggests the ultimate cost could be considerably higher. Bent Flyvbjerg of Oxford University has documented a tendency toward “optimism bias.” His research on transport megaprojects covers more than 1,000 infrastructure projects from the late 1920s to the present. He finds that rail costs are typically underestimated, and ridership and fare revenues greatly overestimated. In sum, 86 per cent of the projects he looked at exceeded their initial budgets.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s “values-based realism” — business first, human rights second — has suffered a reality check by the Chinese government, as it hounds and persecutes a Tibetan activist and Canadian citizen in Toronto.

Gyal Lo, an expert on China’s assimilation policies in Tibet and an eyewitness to its “residential schools,” fled China in 2020, fearing for his life.

China has now served him legal documents in Canada in connection with a civil suit in China.

Mark Carney’s big-spending budget certain to impoverish Canadians as he opens immigration floodgates

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney’s 2026 budget aims to show an economy-obsessed government has put Canada’s long-standing social gaps near the top of the priority list with an $11.2-billion fund to “end” homelessness, billions in new funding for Indigenous infrastructure and supports, and a boost in tax benefits for low-income workers and families.

But the spectre of the trade war with the U.S. that has stalked Carney’s time in office still looms large in the new fiscal blueprint.

Booking $151.5 billion in new spending over the next five years, the government is pressing forth with massive business tax breaks designed to reduce Canada’s dependence on its largest commercial partner and increase profits for private investment inside this country.
