An Israel-based charity watchdog is accusing several charities included in the Canadian government’s recent donation-matching program for Palestinian relief of having links to proscribed terror organizations.
Announced Oct. 27, the program facilitated by Global Affairs Canada, matched donations to the Humanitarian Coalition’s Gaza Humanitarian Emergency Appeal made between Oct. 7 to Nov. 12, up to a maximum of $10 million. The coalition is a group comprising 12 separate Canadian aid agencies.
OTTAWA — One name could dominate Canada’s next election: Donald Trump.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Liberal lawmakers are shifting into full-on attack mode, trying to use former President Trump’s MAGA brand to bludgeon his popular rival, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, as a hard-right populist out of sync with Canadian values.
Chanting “MAGA” will not help a corrupt, incompetent Trudeau government which has achieved near universal disdain for the harms done to Canadians.
Two Chretien-era Liberals say the NDP will be “decimated” in the next election for supporting a “corrupt” Trudeau government.
Former Liberal Party president Stephen LeDrew and former Ontario MP Dan McTeague shared their thoughts in videos on the former’s YouTube Channel, The Ledrew Three Minute Interview.
In a segment provocatively entitled, Will The NDP Be Decimated In The Next Election For Keeping A Corrupt Liberal Government In Power? LeDrew suggested they would.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing increasing discontent as a new poll reveals that 72 percent of Canadians believe he should step down from his role.
The Ipsos survey, released this week, shows a significant decline in support for Trudeau, who has been in power since 2015. He still has two years to go before the next Canadian elections.
You can tell the federal Liberals are desperate. They have entered full scaremonger mode in an effort to boost their crumbling poll numbers. If they can’t win voters over with their policies then, by George, they’re going to frighten them away from the Conservatives with extreme allegations.
Canada’s labor market is stronger than expected, but most weren’t expecting much. Today’s Statistics Canada (Stat Can) Labor Force Survey (LFS) update shows the economy added more jobs than expected in November. However, the data also revealed more laborers were added than work, boosting unemployment. The trend is seen continuing near-term, with recent immigrants bearing the brunt. Most were struggling to find the relevant work they were sold on at record low unemployment. It doesn’t get easier as competition rises for roles in a downturn.
We are a Banana Republic.
A Canadian rapporteur said there was “well-grounded suspicion” that Han Dong, a member of Parliament from Toronto, may have benefited from support from the Chinese Consulate.
The newcomer landed in a district of northern Toronto and announced his bid for Canada’s Parliament. Though few knew him, an important factor helped offset his lack of name recognition — the backing of prominent local Chinese-Canadians.
“I’m very happy that I feel very well supported, surrounded by friends,” the candidate, Han Dong, said at a news conference.
But a government-appointed special rapporteur said there was “well-grounded suspicion” Mr. Dong also had help from a hidden source as he vied for the Liberal Party’s nomination: the Chinese Consulate.
Almost 40 years ago, the Canadian prime minister was facing intense pressure to stand down. Miles behind his Conservative opponent in the polls, bitterly unpopular among even some of his own supporters, Pierre Trudeau announced he would not run again after going for a “walk in the snow” to consider his political future.
Ottawa may be freezing at this time of year, but so far there is little snow on the ground for Justin Trudeau to crunch through as he considers his own options.
Pharmacare, it seems, is doomed. For a while, it appeared that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s minority Liberal government, backed by Jagmeet Singh’s New Democrats, might create a national drug scheme that was both universal and public.
Indeed, creation of a real pharmacare program was the NDP’s price for keeping the Trudeau minority government alive. The party’s rank and file made that clear, most recently at their national convention held in Hamilton in October.
This will be as close as Singh ever gets to real power. He’s going to enjoy the ride and qualify for his pension.
The Trudeau government is flip-flopping like a hooked flounder as it tries to escape the net of its own contradictions.
Years of favouring one group over another now proves disastrous for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and especially his Environment Minister, Steven Guilbeault.
An Abacus poll this week showed the Liberals 15 points behind the Conservatives, and barely ahead of the NDP.
Nearly two months after the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel, Canada is still failing to take even the most basic steps in the fight against Islamofascism and the growing tide of extremism both inside and outside our borders.
On that day, innocent civilians were tortured, raped, murdered and desecrated as part of a mission to eradicate Jews. Since then, Hamas has succeeded in convincing too many westerners that it’s not a genocidal organization whose inherent motive is violence, but a righteous band of rebels and a legitimate government.
The LPC take Islamofascism seriously? Now why would they want to alienate their core constituency?
After nations agreed to a landmark deal to create a global climate damage fund on the first day of climate talks at COP28, Canada pledged its own support on Friday and joined the list of developed countries to back the new deal.
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault announced an initial commitment of $16 million toward the loss and damage fund.
“We think this is a significant step forward,” Guilbeault said to reporters shortly after the opening of the Canadian pavilion at COP28 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Two Chinese community centres in the Montreal area are threatening to launch a $2.5 million lawsuit against the RCMP after being accused by the police force of hosting “alleged Chinese police stations.”
The RCMP confirmed in March(opens in a new tab) it had opened an investigation into the Service à la Famille Chinoise du Grand Montréal, in Montreal’s Chinatown, and the Centre Sino-Québec de la Rive-Sud, in Brossard, on the South Shore of Montreal.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau defended his government’s economic performance Thursday by touting investments in housing and dental care when asked about new data that shows the economy actually contracted in the last quarter.
Statistics Canada reported this morning that the Canadian economy shrank at an annualized pace of 1.1 per cent in the third quarter — a performance much worse than what some forecasters expected for the July through September period.
A recently unsealed U.S. criminal indictment alleging a plot connected to the Indian government to carry out multiple assassinations in North America has rattled Canadian and American relations with the world’s most populous democracy.
The court document, made public Wednesday, lays out U.S. prosecutors’ case against Indian national Nikhil Gupta. U.S. authorities allege Gupta was planning to kill an American Sikh political activist before he was arrested.
The indictment landed months after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shocked the House of Commons by accusing India of being behind the killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia.
