OTTAWA – A federal committee overseeing government operations is launching a parliamentary inquiry into contracts awarded to consulting firm McKinsey & Company.
The firm recently came into the spotlight after news reports highlighted the rapid growth of the company’s work with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government.
The government says it has awarded 23 contracts to McKinsey since 2015 that are together worth $101.4 million.
What’s really, finally, at the heart of radical environmentalism?
An insatiable urge, an unslakeable lust to govern the lives, habits and choices of everyone — everyone — who does not think like them, who chooses not to see the world as they prefer them to see it, who questions their furious dogmas and resists their sprawling imperatives into every corner of every person’s real life.
While many Canadians struggled and saw their financial health deteriorate during the pandemic, the rich got richer.
A new report by Britain’s Oxfam International found that Canadian billionaires saw their wealth grow by a staggering 51 per cent since the pandemic began.
“This accelerated a trend that was already driving wealth inequality in Canada over the past decade,” Oxfam Canada reported.
Bearing in mind that this is a report from the very rapey folks at Oxfam there is no question we are in a new era of the Robber Baron.
Canada is looking more like a crony capitalist kleptocracy every day under Junior.
OTTAWA – Quebec is taking a dwindling share of Canada’s new immigrants, and significantly less than its proportional national share, as it maintains tight caps on newcomers, even as the Trudeau government continues to open the floodgates to more immigration nationally.
… But Quebec brought in 68,820 people, roughly 15.7 per cent of the immigrants to Canada, despite the province representing nearly 23 per cent of Canada’s population.
By contrast, Ontario took 184,000 newcomers in 2022, 42 per cent of the total who came to Canada, even though Ontario represents 38 per cent of Canada’s population. And British Columbia welcomed more than 61,000 people, almost as many as Quebec did, despite B.C. having a population that is 3.5-million people fewer than Quebec.
The government is never your friend but in Canada they are an outright enemy. Canada’s immigration policy is designed to benefit the Corporate class.
That you and your family may suffer due to shortages in housing, medical care and economic insecurity is brushed aside assuming it was even taken into consideration.
Our mainstream political parties, the LPC, CPC and NDP are all in on the scam hoping to harvest ethnic vote blocs.
The Liberals outsourced Canada’s immigration policy to Dominic Barton and McKinsey & Company.
They just don’t care about you or the havoc mass immigration has on our society.
Quebec noticed. Good for them.
Zeihan’s comments on Canadian immigration are interesting, basically we’re probably fecked.
Well, here’s some good news from the federal Liberal government and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson. If you’re an energy-sector worker who was laid off by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s upcoming Just Transition program, you can always get a job as a “janitor” or a delivery driver.
… Taxes and regulations are making it hard to put food on the table. Politicians and bureaucrats are misleading us. They’re wasting our money and not being honest about how it’s spent. And they’re showering themselves with bonuses and raises no matter how bad of a job they’re doing.
Canada’s latest Environment and Climate Change report to the United Nations, submitted at the end of December, fails Canada’s Indigenous people yet again, consigning us to poverty , wiping out our path to prosperity and blocking our ability to bring traditional knowledge and wisdom to bear on protecting the land. This is only the most recent instance in a long line of failures dating back hundreds of years. Proper consultation with Indigenous people before the report’s submission might have prevented that.
Former finance minister Bill Morneau says he disagreed with the way Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used vaccine mandates as a wedge issue during the 2021 election, arguing it further polarized the debate in Canada.
OTTAWA – An association representing Canadian defence firms is adding its voice to those concerned that Canada is not included in a security pact between Australia, Britain and the United States.
Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries president Christyn Cianfarani says one worry is that Canada won’t have access to the same technology as its closest allies.
There are also fears the arrangement will hurt Canadian defence companies by making it easier for competitors from Australia and Britain to sell to the U.S.
National defence is too Butch.
Ottawa has awarded 23 contracts to McKinsey & Company since 2015 with a total value of $101.4-million, federal officials say – a figure that is significantly higher than what has previously been revealed.
Public Services and Procurement Canada has released a statement with a new summary of federal spending with the New York-based consulting firm, just ahead of a House of Commons committee meeting Wednesday in which MPs will debate plans to hold hearings into government contracts with the company.
The money is secondary to the influence they exerted on immigration policy.
If you’re from Alberta, Saskatchewan or Newfoundland and Labrador, this plan might well strike you as madness, as a federal government that has lost all humility and common sense
The staggering scope of change that Justin Trudeau’s Liberals intend to impose on Canadians with their Just Transition program is made clear in a newly-released government document.
Such is the magnitude of the proposed change that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said she “felt sick” reading it.
Justin Trudeau is our national nightmare. I wish we could rest easy knowing Junior will be punished at the polls but NDP voters will keep the delusional jackass in power.

Canada’s annual inflation rate cooled to 6.3 per cent in December, its lowest level since February.
Statistics Canada reported Tuesday that the deceleration in the cost of living was mostly due to slower growth in prices for things like gasoline, durable goods and various shelter-related expenses.
While the costs of many goods and services are finally coming down or at least slowing their pace of increases, food prices are still going up at an impressive clip. Grocery prices inched up another 0.3 per cent during the month of December, and have increased by 11 per cent year over year. That’s a slight slowdown from the 11.4 per cent pace the previous month.
Opposition MPs are requesting a House of Commons committee meeting to examine the large increase in government contracts being awarded to the U.S. consulting firm McKinsey since the Trudeau Liberals took power in 2015.
“In the past seven years, McKinsey & Company has garnered $66 million in federal contracts, representing a 30-fold increase from the previous government according to media reporting,” reads a letter signed by all the opposition members on the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates and sent on Jan. 13 to Conservative MP Kelly McCauley, the committee’s chair.
How did it come to be that silence regarding Anglo-European Canadians became the law of the land?
… Breaking down 2021 federal election results highlights the “strength of the Liberals and NDP in visible minority majority urban ridings and the relative strength of the Conservatives in ridings with between five and twenty percent visible minorities.”
A new report from the National Opinion Centre has delivered a rarity among immigration-related communications in Canada. Among other vital statistics related to Canadian demography, the following statement speaks to the impact of immigration intake in Canada:
“The number of ridings in which visible minorities form a majority of the population has increased from one in ten (33) in 2011 to close to one in six (51), reflecting high and increasing levels of immigration.”
If the “racialized” don’t vote Conservative why does Poilievre’s CPC support mass immigration like Justin and Singh?
Peter Zeihan: Canada’s 5 Problems – Worth a watch, basically our immigration policy is fecked. Kinda funny too.

… Mexico’s market is growing. Yours is not. Your market is protected. Mexico’s is not. The Mexican labor force is complementary to ours. Yours is not. We have a deal with the country that matters, and that isn’t you. We are leaving NAFTA. You know our terms. Take them or leave them. We are moving on.
In a single searing moment of revelation, everything that had guaranteed Canada leverage over America, everything that granted Canada a place in the world, everything that had generated any meaningful international influence, had evaporated. Canada capitulated within days and signed on for NAFTA2.
A viral video of Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland explaining why she needs to spend $2 billion quickly is giving Canadians an inside look at how the Trudeau government acts first and thinks later.
