In-house research by the federal government found that some participants in an online focus group thought the budget speech delivered by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland was “self-congratulatory.”
The study was conducted by market research firm Leger on behalf of the Department of Finance, to gauge public opinion on the Mar. 28 budget speech, as first covered by Blacklock’s Reporter. The findings were released on Mar. 31.
You’ll find your self nodding in agreement.
It has been a very bad couple of weeks for social cohesion in Trudeau’s Canada.
But I am pleased to witness Trudeau’s weaponized use of identity politics blowing up in his face.
To recap…
Junior tossed a hand grenade into the middle of relations with India over his support of resident Sikh separatists.
He offended parents in general by defaming them as bigots because they stood up for parental rights. Now members of the Muslim diaspora are demanding a formal apology.
Then came the topper, his government invited a Ukrainian man with an indisputable association with the Waffen SS to be honored in parliament.
Backed into a corner Trudeau offered his usual mealy mouthed non-apology to all who were offended.
All of this obscuring this week’s upcoming “National Day for Truth and Reconciliation” a celebration of the anti-Christian church burnings Trudeau triggered by supporting the fake graves mania.
No one wins in Trudeau’s genocidal nation of Canada.
We are being deliberately manipulated into a permanent state of racial and sectarian tension.
And that’s how they want us, scared and malleable.
Liberal party policies have resulted in large swaths of society conditioned to believe they possess a permanent entitled victimhood.
Our history and heritage are trampled, our institutions made hollow and our social and economic security crushed under a wave of mass immigration that benefits only the Corporate class and their minion politicos.
This is not the Canada I grew up in. It is not the Canada any of us deserve.
I have never seen the comments section of this blog as inflamed as it was this week.
Reader has been pitted against reader all of it tied to Trudeau’s Photo-Op gone wrong.
My view remains unchanged.
There were no easy choices in that time and place.
The Waffen-SS Galicia Division did commit war crimes.
Poles and Jews are rightfully indignant that a member of the Waffen SS was honored in parliament.
Not every man who volunteered for what came to be known as the 1st Ukrainian Division was a Nazi or personally committed war crimes.
We have not heard the last of it.
There are calls for new inquiries and for old reports to be re-opened with all information withheld to be made public.
No doubt new wounds will be inflicted and old ones re-opened.
But we should not forget our history good or bad.
Operation Keelhaul is one example: The repatriation of Russian POWs turned out to be a ghastly and grisly process. Some of the men simply committed suicide rather than return. The world hardly knew what was happening, though details managed to trickle out here and there.
Let them eat scallops!
Make that seared and crusted scallops, poached shrimp, pulled beef barbacoa and, of course, lamb meatballs.
The homeless will be eating well in Ottawa Friday. Or maybe, more accurately, they are enjoying the spoils of Canada’s parliamentarians.
Canada assassination claim sparks rare consensus in India’s polarised politics and media
When Justin Trudeau stood up in Canadian parliament last week to announce there were “credible allegations” that agents linked to the Indian government had been involved in the assassination of a Sikh activist in a suburb of Vancouver, it sent reverberations across the world.
Countries from the US to the UK expressed concern at the allegations, urging India to cooperate with the investigation. Inside India, the response was defiant. The government called the allegations “absurd” and politically motivated and attempted to turn the tables, accusing Canada of being a rogue state that is a “safe haven for terrorists”.
Things somehow managed to go from bad to worse for the flailing Justin Trudeau on Monday when he was slapped with a stinging rebuke from the Muslim Association of Canada.
In a sharply worded statement, the 55,000-member faith-based organization condemned the prime minister (among other politicians and groups) for making statements that it claimed mischaracterized last week’s 1 Million March 4 Children and, implicitly, the involvement of members of the Muslim community in the protests. (Muslim organizers like Calgary’s Mahmood Mourra were highly visible in the protest’s leadership).
Justin Trudeau’s apology for the Nazi controversy is a start — but it’s not enough
… Trudeau, after issuing the apology on behalf of Parliament, revealed that Canada had already said sorry to Ukraine privately for marring what should have been a great day for Zelenskyy and his visit to Ottawa.
It was only last week that Canada’s relations with India, the world’s largest democracy, went downhill fast. The drama became a big international story and when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the United Nations in New York last week, the India affair was pretty much all he was asked about.
Trudeau publicly accused the Indian government of participating in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil—a Sikh independence activist born in India who has been accused of terrorism, a charge he had denied. Trudeau produced no meaningful evidence and India was not happy, creating a chill in relations that included the stopping of all visas for Canadian citizens.

It is entirely appropriate that Justin Trudeau has issued a formal apology to Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Jewish communities around the world for the grave diplomatic humiliation of paying tribute to a Nazi in the House of Commons, even as the Ukrainian president struggles to kill the myth that Nazism is rampant in his nation’s politics and society.
Months after a pro-Khalistan activist was shot and killed in Surrey, B.C., a second Sikh activist was allegedly warned by law enforcement about threats to his life, according to a newly disclosed document.
The document, titled “duty to warn” is addressed to Gurmit Singh Toor and dated August 24. It was made public by pro-Khalistan activist group Sikhs For Justice.
Speaking through a translator, Toor confirmed to CBC News that Surrey RCMP and the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) came to his home and issued the warning. CBC News is working to confirm the veracity of the document with RCMP, but has not yet received a response.
Justin Trudeau’s government sees fascists everywhere, except when one is standing right under their nose. That’s the brilliant if bleak irony of the Canadian parliament’s standing ovation for Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old veteran of the Ukrainian military who, it turns out, fought under the Nazis in the Second World War.
It was the “optics” of the thing.
That’s what it’s always been about with Justin Trudeau’s government: The fancy-socks neoliberalism, the matinee-idol magazine covers, the Pride parades, the ill-advised Bollywood haberdashery. It’s always about optics.
But if you live by optics you just might perish by them, and what we’re beholding now is the “world stage” reputation of Trudeau’s Canada suddenly engulfed in a hurricane of mortifying, barely-believable global headlines. Like this one: Canadian parliament accidentally honours Nazi.
OTTAWA – Statistics Canada says immigration is almost solely responsible for the largest annual population boom Canada has seen since 1957.
The newly released data shows Canada’s population grew by more than a million people between from July 2022 to July 2023, which represents an increase of about three per cent.
Canada also saw a massive 46 per cent increase in the number of temporary residents in Canada over the same period.
The Liberal party are vicious animals.
It’s been a tough few days for the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. Nothing, it seems, is going right for him. His domestic popularity has been on a downward spiral for some time and is unlikely to rebound any time soon, if the present trends are anything to go by. His main rival, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, is gaining ground with recent polls suggesting he has the backing of 40 per cent of Canadians who see him as the best choice to be prime minister, a 5 percent increase from 2022, even as Trudeau’s popularity remains unchanged at 31 percent.
It’s good to see the foreign press taking a proper view of the Cokehead in Ottawa.
Trudeau apologizes after a Ukrainian Nazi veteran was celebrated at Zelenskyy speech
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has apologized on behalf of Canada after a veteran of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi forces was included in a parliamentary event last week honouring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
“All of us who were in this House on Friday regret deeply having stood and clapped even though we did so unaware of the context,” Trudeau said in a brief statement to reporters.
“It was a horrendous violation of the memory of the millions of people who died in the Holocaust,” he said, saying the celebration of ex-soldier Yaroslav Hunka was “deeply, deeply painful” to Jewish people, Poles, Roma, the LGBT community and other racialized people in particular — some of the groups that were targeted by the Nazi regime in the Second World War.
Canada isn’t guilty of anything. Trudeau and his Nazi party loving pals are guilty.

Greg Gutfeld SNAPS into most EPIC rant EVER after "Blackface" Castro Jr. Trudeau gives literal Ukrainian NAZI standing ovation:

The Canadian Prime Minister has met his match in refreshing Conservative opposition leader Pierre Poilievre
The latest polls in Canada have the country’s Conservative Party in a very comfortable position. If an election were held now, it’s predicted that the Tories would take 179 seats, against the governing Liberals with 103, and the socialist New Democratic Party 21. The Greens and Quebec separatists would split the rest. There are 338 MP in Ottawa’s House of Commons, so even with the country being as regional as it is, that Conservative victory would be sufficient for a working government.
OMG! Michael Coren must be changing faiths again!
