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.

Foreign Student Scam: Canada unveils new restrictions on work permits for international students, spouses

The federal government has announced new measures to limit and curb the abuse of Canada’s international student program.

Starting on Sept. 1, Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced Monday, the federal government will stop issuing postgraduate work permits to international students who graduate from programs provided under so-called Public College-Private Partnerships.

Furthermore, for most of the international students who are not studying in graduate schools or in a professional program such as medicine or law, their spouses will no longer receive a work permit to work in Canada.


WTF! The Liberals were letting the spouses in too?

It’s only a 2 year cap and the number of permits is being reduced to 364K, a reduction of only 35% that’s still too many as this was just a Liberal party scam to begin with.

Executive Pay for Federal Employees Has Increased $571 Million Since 2015

Pay for executives working in the federal government increased over half a billion dollars in less than 10 years, according to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF).

Compensation for executives across federal departments and agencies increased from $1.38 billion in 2015 to $1.95 billion in 2022, an increase of 41 percent, according to a CTF federal commentary published Jan. 17, citing data obtained from access-to-information records.

The organization also found that, over that seven-year period, the number of federal executives increased 31 percent, from 7,138 to 9,371, while inflation, based on Statistics Canada data, increased 19.4 percent.

The public service is an LPC vote bloc cultivated at our expense.

The spectre of another Trump presidency looms as Trudeau’s cabinet gathers to start a new year

In August 2016, when the current government was less than a year old, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet gathered at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ont. for a two-day retreat. The ministers bunked in the student dorms. The big story of the week concerned a $1,700 bill for car service incurred by Jane Philpott, health minister at the time.

Among their special guests were Michael Barber, the British guru behind “deliverology,” and David MacNaughton, the experienced Liberal adviser who was serving as Canada’s ambassador to the United States.

Trudeau cabinet to hear from experts on middle class, Canada-U.S., and housing during pre-Parliament retreat in Montreal

MONTREAL—Against a backdrop of a double-digit deficit in the national public polls, Justin Trudeau and his cabinet are huddling in Montreal to plot strategy for the high stakes winter sitting of Parliament in which the next federal budget will be delivered.

The retreat begins today and will wrap up Tuesday.

Justin is that stupid.

GUNTER: The harsh realities of electric vehicles in Canada

When it comes to electric vehicles (EVs), the Trudeau government and Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault are putting the policy cart before the technology horse.

If last week’s extreme cold temperatures over most of the country taught us anything, it’s that EVs just aren’t practical (yet) for a country this big and this cold.

Number of international students now exceeds one million, official figures show

Vicious idiots run Canada

The number of international students in Canada now exceeds one million, according to official figures that show an increase that has escalated far faster than the government’s own internal forecasts.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada told The Globe and Mail that at the end of December, there were 1,028,850 study permit holders, with just over half of them in Ontario.

Trudeau threatens to pull support for a Jewish state

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Israel’s “short-term” actions could result in the withdrawal of “support for a Jewish state” from Canada and other allied nations.

Trudeau’s Liberal government voted in favour of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, an Islamic extremist terrorist group leading the Palestinian government that holds the doctrine all Jews must be destroyed.

Trudeau government’s policies are undercutting Canada’s economy, business group charges

OTTAWA — One of Canada’s leading business groups has accused the federal government of eroding the country’s economic standing through its failure to constrain spending and more quickly adopt policies to cash in on the global transition away from fossil fuels.

The Business Council of Canada, a lobby group based in Ottawa, sent that message in a letter addressed to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday.

In the letter, which the group provided to the Star, council president and chief executive Goldy Hyder warned that government inaction in areas like spending restraint and reforms to the process to approve major projects is undercutting the Canadian economy.


Recognize this: This article is written to suggest the “Business Council of Canada” representing Canada’s corporate welfare class gives a damn about the so called transition away from fossil fuels and supports Trudeau’s lunatic climate policies.

In fact the BCC only want Trudeau to make it easier for them to cash in on his Net Zero fraud before the public kicks that nonsense to curb.

The BCC in their insatiable greed heartily supports Trudeau’s destructive mass immigration scam. They do not hold your best interests at heart.

THOMSON: Bernier was right on immigration, wasn’t he?

Finally.

In the lead up to the 2019 federal election, People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier was uncannily prophetic on immigration.

Right now immigration, and its impact on housing, jobs and affordability becomes a successively bigger topic each week.

More and more columnists, journalists, economists and politicians are talking about it. Yet none of them has given even a grudging acknowledgement to Maxime Bernier’s 2019 platform on this issue.

Trudeau careening out of control on a Kathleen Wynne like trajectory to oblivion

Mad at Justin Trudeau? Tuning him out? The prime minister says he hears you — and he gets it

Justin Trudeau gets a lot of advice. It goes with the job of being prime minister.
But who does Trudeau seek out when times get tough, as they have so often over the past year?

“Define ‘tough times,’ because that sounds like Monday to me,” Trudeau said when he sat down with me for a wide-ranging, one-on-one interview last week. “Every day is tough. We’re running a country in a really, really complex time.”


Only Blackie’s Star has the gall to paint the public’s intense and growing disdain for Trudeau as if it were a mere glitch quickly remedied by a selfie or special socks.

During Wynne’s last run for office it became evident that not only the public but the media had tuned her out. I suspect Wynne tuned Wynne out.

She became an afterthought and deservedly so. People were interested in one thing – seeing the back of her.

Trudeau and his ministers desperately hope to reverse his faded fortunes and are spinning tall tales about how they’re solving the housing, affordability and mass immigration crisis while building a fabulous economic future under their lunatic Net-Zero tyranny.

But it’s all lies these problems were inflicted upon us through the malevolent incompetence of Trudeau’s Liberals. Canadians know that.

Our nation’s social and economic security has been deeply harmed by Trudeau’s policies and it will take years to fix the mess Junior created.

It is the common people who are suffering from his incompetence not Junior’s insulated Liberal cabal and the most vulnerable will continue to bear the brunt of Trudeau’s malfeasance for years to come.

Besides our new status as a naturally wealthy nation made deliberately poor Canada’s other claim to fame is as a World Class Laughing Stock. Thank Trudeau for that. I bet his cronies steal the tampons from Parliament’s men’s washrooms.

No amount of spin will lie the Liberals out of that legacy.
