Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government

Bad economic arguments often come with a “tell” – a hand-waving catchphrase, inserted in place of reason or evidence as a means of coaxing agreement. Appeals for industrial subsidies are notorious for this.

For a long time the vogue phrase was “value-added.” Asked why a company’s fate should not be decided in the usual way – by its ability to sell a product to willing consumers or to raise capital from willing investors, rather than by its ability to lobby governments – the industrial strategy advocate had only to mumble something about the critical need to “move up the value-added ladder” to sweep away all objections.

SNC, McKinsey and now VW. Justin’s LPC seems to like doing business with corporate criminals.

What can you do if you don’t want the new government-approved internet?

If you want the internet, not TrudeauNet, find a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and you are on your way. VPNs are designed to enhance security but also to make your IP address invisible to the rest of the internet. That means you can’t be tracked by either the big platforms or governments. VPNs have been criticized because they enable you to go to “bad” places without anyone knowing what you looked at, but they are perfectly legal.

It is well to begin with an axiom. As all word-lovers know, an axiom is an agreed upon truth or principle, a proposition from which starts a chain of reasoning or argument. The framers of the U.S. Declaration of Independence began with an axiom — “We hold these truths to be self-evident” — and from those “self-evident truths” proceeded to the whole of their historic assertion.

Today’s axiom, as opposed to Thomas Jefferson’s simple assertion of “self-evident” (axioms do not need to be true, just agreed upon), has to its advantage that it accords with logic and can actually claim to be a, or the, truth.

The Liberal Party’s new online-streaming bill is yet another egregious assault on our liberties.

Canadians will soon be relieved of the stress of seeking out content they find interesting on social media. Instead they will be able to relax, while the government chooses it for them.

This is the intention of Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Act, which is currently being debated in the Canadian Senate. If passed, it will empower the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), a government agency, to filter what Canadians see in their social-media feeds and on YouTube.

OTTAWA – The Liberal government is announcing funding for women’s rights abroad, in an apparent bid to showcase the Liberals’ position on reproductive rights against that of conservatives, both in Canada and the United States.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to reaffirm the Canadian government’s commitment to supporting reproductive freedom in New York City today, where he is attending a star-studded summit.
