Trudeau’s Canada: Baby born in Hamilton homeless encampment shows extent of ‘desperate’ housing crisis

A Hamilton councillor’s recent experience witnessing a baby born in an encampment in the city demonstrates the “unacceptable” housing crisis residents face and “eye opening” situations paramedics and police officers are currently responding to, he says.

Coun. Matt Francis (Ward 5) told CBC Hamilton he was doing a ride along with police on a cold morning in late November when they were called to a medical emergency at an encampment tucked away in an industrial area in the east end.

Canadians never imagined that a man so criminally stupid, so self righteously indifferent to the genuine suffering of citizens as Justin Trudeau could ever be elected PM.

A verdict on Trudeau’s biggest call, and a millstone around his neck

It didn’t take long for Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland to troop out to say the federal government will appeal. Justin Trudeau’s Liberals know what Tuesday’s court decision is: A millstone around their necks.

Invoking the Emergencies Act to shut down convoy protests in February, 2022, had been a popular decision at the time, and one of the biggest calls Mr. Trudeau ever made. Now the Federal Court of Canada has ruled it was illegal. Justice Richard Mosley concluded there was no national emergency, as defined by the law.

In 2024, now that Mr. Trudeau is much less popular, it’s a stiff blow to his credibility, and a kick at a government’s that’s already down.

John Ivison: Emergencies Act karma comes back to bite the Liberals

It is not surprising that judges often disagree after witnessing the same evidence. They are, after all, simply lawyers in robes.

Federal Court Justice Richard Moseley ruled on Tuesday that the Liberal government did not have reasonable grounds to use the Emergencies Act to clear Freedom Convoy protestors in 2022, and doing so was an unreasonable overreach that infringed Canadians’ Charter rights

Michael Higgins: How can Canadians trust Trudeau and Joly when they don’t trust you?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly claim to know Canadians, but what they don’t do is trust the very people they serve.

In the last two days, neither Trudeau nor Joly when asked about a specific issue or a matter of vitally important policy would give an honest answer.

They both think that expressing faux sympathy with Canadians is a better alternative.

Trudeau gov’t ‘green’ heat pump scam to cost nearly quadruple initial estimate

An ideologically charged Canadian federal government “green” program to try and get homeowners to switch their reliable heating oil furnaces for less reliable electric heat pumps via a large grant has been blasted by a taxpayer advocacy group as yet more government waste after it was revealed the program is set to cost nearly four times as much as originally thought.

Christine Van Geyn: Emergencies Act was clearly unjustified — Liberals face steep path to appeal

Two years to the day of the beginning of the 2022 Freedom Convoy, the Federal Court has declared the Trudeau government’s response to that protest unreasonable and unconstitutional. On Tuesday, Justice Richard Mosley of the Federal Court issued a decision in a group of cases challenging the invocation of the Emergencies Act in response to the convoy. The cases were brought by public interest organizations, including the Canadian Constitution Foundation and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, as well as individual protesters who had been directly impacted by the emergency orders.

Trudeau announces ‘Team Canada’ approach to U.S. election

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Tuesday that he has assigned two cabinet ministers to lead a new “Team Canada” engagement to ensure Canada and his government are prepared for all possible outcomes from this fall’s United States presidential election.

“Canada-U.S. relations are fundamental for the prosperity and well-being of Canadians,” Trudeau told reporters in Montreal, where he is wrapping up two days of meetings with his cabinet.

No one pays serious attention to Trudeau at home or abroad.

Justin Trudeau fends off dire warnings, says he won’t slash federal spending

MONTREAL — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he doesn’t believe in slashing federal spending to please business groups or opposition Conservatives, raising questions about how his Liberal government would meet its own goal to cap annual budget deficits in the coming years.

Speaking to reporters on the final day of the Liberal cabinet retreat ahead of the winter sitting of Parliament, Trudeau brushed aside a recent statement from a prominent corporate lobby group that concludes meeting the goal could require $12 billion in annual spending cuts or increased taxes — far more than the reduction of $15.4 billion the Liberals have pledged to make over the next five years.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Liberals put all their bets on campaigning against … Donald Trump

It’s retreat week for two of Canada’s top three political parties. The Liberal cabinet is hunkered down in Montreal, talking housing, cost of living, and Donald Trump. The NDP caucus is assembled in Edmonton, strategizing on how to squeeze their priorities into the Liberals’ upcoming spring budget.

And the Conservatives? They’re just sitting pretty at the top of the polls, to the consternation of their rivals, who are staring down the barrel of a 2025 election with very few options for turning the tide.

B.C., Ontario vow to crack down on diploma mill schools exploiting Trudeau’s mass immigration scam

B.C. and Ontario are vowing to crack down on private post-secondary institutions that are accused of exploiting international students, after the federal government announced Monday it will cap the number of student permits issued in the next two years.

Federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced the government will reduce the number of student visas by 35 per cent for 2024, stating the goal is in part to target private institutions he described as “the diploma equivalent of puppy mills.”

I don’t believe this for a minute.

A very good explanation of the housing crisis and why the Liberals can’t fix it doing what they’re doing.

Federal government’s decision to invoke Emergencies Act against convoy protests was unreasonable, court rules

A federal judge says the Liberal government’s use of the Emergencies Act in early 2022 to clear convoy protesters was unreasonable.

The case was brought forward by the Canadian Civil Liberties Association and the Canadian Constitution Foundation and individuals who argued Ottawa did not meet the legal threshold when it invoked the legislation, which had never been used before.

The two groups shared copies of the decision online.

Trudeau still got away with it.

Of course they send out the Nazi to announce the appeal.

The problem is us, not him, Trudeau patiently explains

It has been two months since the Prime Minister’s Office announced branding guru Max Valiquette would become executive director of communications, bringing with him his expertise in “understanding millennials and generation Z.” Early in the new year, the PMO also added broadcaster, strategist and pundit Supriya Dwivedi as a senior adviser. In a Toronto Star op-ed, Dwivedi said she signed on in hopes of tackling online misinformation that’s being algorithmically forced down our throats by “giant, for-profit, foreign companies.”

Battered in the polls, Justin Trudeau’s Liberals look for a boost from … Donald Trump?

MONTREAL — The federal Liberals are turning their minds to how they can strategically benefit from the looming shadow of Donald Trump, as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet are set to hold sessions on Canada’s relations with the United States ahead of this year’s presidential election.

The discussion is slated for Tuesday, before Trudeau and his front bench of cabinet ministers wrap up three days of strategizing and policy debate ahead of the winter sitting of Parliament. It also happens to occur as Trump tries to tighten his grip on the Republican Party nomination for president with Tuesday’s primary vote in New Hampshire.

Ottawa is putting all our eggs in an EV battery basket

Ever since the federal government signalled an open bar for subsidies for the electric vehicle industry, the list of companies wanting to set up shop in this country in exchange for taxpayer cash just keeps growing. We learned recently that both Honda and Toyota have added their names to it. If the past is any guide, there’s a good chance Ottawa will give each of them a wad of Canadian taxpayers’ money.
