Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sometimes seems to defy political gravity. He’s held office for more than eight years, through scandal and error. He survived revelations that he wore blackface three times as a young man, along with two ethics violations handed down from Canada’s ethics commissioner for conflict of interest. He has had public spats with female parliamentarians and ministers—as well as icy relations with China and India and with Presidents Trump and Biden.
The federal government knew for several months of serious governance, conflict-of-interest and human-resources infractions at its main funding agency for green technology, but softened a report that detailed the evidence to keep senior leaders in place, the whistleblower who made the initial complaints testified on Monday.
Justin Trudeau’s government has had to weather many storms over the last eight years.
The SNC-Lavalin controversy. An old yearbook photo with the prime minister in blackface. Multiple ethics violations. The COVID-19 pandemic.
But as the governing Liberals continue to slide in the polls, the slow-moving hurricane that may actually end up blowing them away appears to be the economy.
For many, the pandemic has receded into little more than a bad memory. But the economic domino effect it touched off lingers on, wreaking electoral havoc on incumbent governments around the world.
EXPLOSIVE TESTIMONY
Whistleblower from Trudeau's $1 Billion Green Slush Fund testifies:
$150 million in taxpayer money misappropriated.
Habitual conflicts of interest violations by Liberal appointed board members.
Coordinated effort by government to coverup.

If there’s a hot political debate over why Canada has a housing crisis, it is important to talk about the proximate cause.
It’s population growth. And the temporary resident boom.
Canadian politicians have spent a lot of time dodging and ignoring this unavoidable fact.
See the Hamas support rallies in our streets? That’s another aspect of population growth our so called mainstream politicians refuse to address.
The toxins of mass immigration, multiculturalism and diversity are putting lives at risk while ripping our society apart.
Not all cultures are equal. Canada’s political class and their corporate backers has invited incompatibale cultures to settle here.
Politicians don’t care where the bodies come from, they only care about meeting the population targets set by their corporate cronies and gaining the votes of ethnic strongmen.
Canada’s wreckless and destructive immigration policy is born of cowardice and greed without a care for the harm done to citizens.
The Canadian governments Sustainable Development Technology Fund, often referred to as a “Trudeau’s green slush fund,” is under fire yet again today.
Member of Parliament Michael Barrett this morning on Twitter has revealed that yet another member of the board of directors, Guy Ouimet, is under investigation following allegations of a conflict of interest. The investigation follows the resignation of Leah Lawrence, President and CEO of the agency, whom stepped down after it was revealed that SDTC chair Annette Verschuren had received funding from the agency for her own organization. Verschuren has also stepped down from her role with the organization.
Everybody is an environmentalist. At least, they are until its time to pay the bill. Then the tune changes dramatically. The Trudeau regime is discovering this the hard way as support for their government continues its freefall in public support.
Climate change doesn’t mean a damn thing to Canadians when they can’t make the rent or fill the refrigerator. Canadians are seeing the link between economically damaging climate taxes and policies and the difficulty in making ends meet. They are rightly taking it out on the federal Liberals.
Is Judge Marie-Josée Hogue the new David Johnston? The Quebec Court of Appeals judge was appointed in early September to head the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference in Federal Electoral Processes and Democratic Institutions, months after “special rapporteur” Johnston had concluded that an inquiry wasn’t necessary.
A group of foreign ministers from the Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia and Turkey are in Ottawa today for a quietly planned meeting with Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly to discuss attempts to end the Israel-Hamas war.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also joined the talks, arranged to see how countries such as Canada can help efforts to secure peace for Palestinians and Israelis, after Hamas militants launched a deadly rampage in Israel on Oct. 7.
It appears Justin Trudeau’s government has abandoned the goal of ever balancing its budget. In her fall economic update, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland laid out her new fiscal policy. And it’s deficits all the way to the horizon.
Rather than setting forward a plan to work back to a surplus after years of red ink, Freeland indulged in sleight of hand.
An international student at Memorial University in St. John’s says federal changes to the amount of required income for international students will provide transparency on what is needed to live in Canada but will also likely reduce the number of students who choose to study in the country.
Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced new rules Thursday that will increase the amount of money that prospective international students will need to study in Canada.
As a way to cut down on fraudulent applications, Miller said, students will need to show they have access to $20,635 instead of $10,000.
This program was always a scam, nothing will change.
TORONTO, Dec 9 (Reuters) – The dream of making it big in Canada is turning into a battle for survival for many immigrants due to the high cost of living and rental shortages, as rising emigration numbers hints to newcomers being forced to turn their back on a country that they chose to make their adopted home.
Trudeau has made immigration his main weapon to blunt Canada’s big challenge of an aging and slowing population, and it has also helped fuel economic growth. That drove Canada’s population up at its fastest clip in more than six decades this year, Statistics Canada said.
… Which brings me back to the elephant in the room, which Housing hell never mentions: immigration.
In the long run, over decades and centuries, Canada can match housing supply to housing demand, regardless of whether the national population is 40 million or 400 million. But in the here and now, a surge in new arrivals, particularly since the pandemic – with one million new residents in 2022, and likely more this year – has introduced housing demand at a far faster pace than supply can be built.
It’s simple math. There’s no getting around it. And both the Prime Minister and the man after his job would rather not talk about it.
Finally.
Canada and Quebec experienced a sudden and unexpected explosion in their populations in 2022. At 2.4% and almost 1.8% respectively, this is the strongest one-year population growth in at least half a century.
The main source of this explosion is the extraordinarily high level of temporary immigration. However, political leaders tend to focus their attention purely on the number of permanent immigrants (for example, 500,000 in Canada in 2025, or 50,000 to 60,000 in Quebec in 2027) and “omit” temporary immigration.
This is a serious error of assessment.
