‘A perfect example of what not to do’: Former U.S. envoy on Trudeau’s reported NATO comments

A former U.S. envoy to Ottawa says he’s concerned about what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reportedly said about Canadian defence spending.

David Jacobson, who served as Barack Obama’s ambassador from 2009 to 2013, says a recent Washington Post report could prove to be a setback for future U.S.-Canada relations.

The Post says Trudeau privately told NATO officials that Canada would never meet the military alliance’s spending target of two per cent of GDP.

Trudeau freeloads on Canadians, on his rich friends for vacations and foundation donations, it’s his lifestyle so its no wonder his neglectful governance reflects that.

He and his woke wrecking crew are destroying the CAF. That desecration will likely end up his legacy.

Trudeau Lies About Report Saying He Told NATO Canada Will Never Meet Military Spending Target

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has responded to an American media report alleging that he privately told NATO officials that Canada will never meet the military alliance’s defence-spending target for its member countries.

The prime minister was asked by reporters on April 19, after leaving question period in the House of Commons, to confirm or deny the comments attributed to him in a report by The Washington Post published the same day.

Who’s to blame for the ethics commissioner quitting? Pierre Poilievre’s MPs, say the Liberals

OTTAWA—Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives are the reason the interim ethics commissioner quit, Liberal House Leader Mark Holland said Thursday as the government remained on the defensive over its ethical track record.

Martine Richard’s appointment to the post drew criticism late last month after it was revealed she’s the sister-in-law of Liberal cabinet minister Dominic Leblanc.

Still, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau defended the choice, noting she joined the office under the previous Conservative government, was second-in-command and there are procedures in place to guard from conflicts.

Team Trudeau has learned nothing from Aga Khan debacle

At seven-and-a-half years in office with no short- or medium-term prospect of removal, Justin Trudeau can already safely claim a reasonably impressive tenure as prime minister of Canada. At this point it’s entirely possible he could win a fourth consecutive election, which would put him in rare company indeed. That would be all the more remarkable due to his unique combination of terrible political instincts and limitless confidence to follow those instincts wherever they lead him.

Feds can’t say which regulations to cut greenhouse gas emissions are working: audit

The federal government needs to start taking stock of whether its climate-change regulations are actually cutting greenhouse-gas emissions or not, Environment Commissioner Jerry DeMarco said Thursday

DeMarco published the results of a new audit looking at the impact of five specific climate change policies, which found that Canada doesn’t know how much those regulations are contributing to any reduction in emissions.

Freeland says Ottawa’s offer to public sector workers is a fair one that won’t burden taxpayers

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said Thursday that the federal government’s offer to striking public sector workers is a fair one that wouldn’t burden the treasury with unnecessarily high wage costs at a time of economic uncertainty.

Speaking to reporters at a nuclear power plant in Pickering, Ont., Freeland said the federal government has to remember the “hardworking people of Canada” who pay public sector wages.

Glavin: The Liberals’ weird fixation with the CBC is the real problem

“A house divided against itself cannot stand” is a banality we’re all familiar with, but what too many Canadians can’t seem to get their heads around is that a national broadcaster supported overwhelmingly by the governing Liberals but bitterly opposed by Conservatives cannot stand, either, and probably shouldn’t. You can blame Pierre Poilievre for this state of affairs if you like. But Justin Trudeau’s Liberals are every bit as guilty.

Canada offering more than C$13 bln over decade for Volkswagen battery plant, govt source says

OTTAWA, April 20 (Reuters) – Canada agreed to provide subsidies of up to C$13 billion ($9.7 billion) over a decade plus a C$700 million grant to lure Volkswagen AG into building its North American battery plant in the country, a government source said confirming an earlier report by Bloomberg News.

The total Canadian investment, which could include funds from the Ontario government also, will largely match what Volkswagen would have got from the United States through the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the source said.

The Bank of Canada instructed Corporate Canada to fight inflation by denying wage increases to mostly non-unionized working people now Public service unions stoke inflation’s fires with wage demands

If striking bureaucrats get their pay raises, inflation might never end

When 155,000 federal government workers walked off the job this week, they tested more than the resolve of the government and the patience of Canadian taxpayers. They also tested Newton’s third law, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

There is no question that the cost of living has been rising and that people need relief. But that does not come from simply giving everyone more money.

Very shortly the Trudeau government and Canada’s public service unions, a critical component of the Liberal Party’s electoral success, will rub shit in your face and tell you to like it.

They will get virtually all they ask for. Trudeau is in need of their support and like the CBC the unions were never non-partisan.

Justin Trudeau, Pierre Poilievre and Jagmeet Singh all crave the labour vote. Here’s why the federal strike complicates that

OTTAWA—When NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh turned up in front of Parliament Hill Wednesday to join thousands of striking federal workers, the picket line all but turned into a party line.

After all, Singh has noted repeatedly in recent days, his party has always stood on the side of unions.

The Public Service is not the “labour vote”. Labour in Canada is mostly non-unionized.

The unionization rate for private sector employees fell from 19.0% in 1997 to 13.8% in 2021. In contrast, 74.1% of public sector employees were union members in 2021, 4.3 percentage points higher than in 1997.

‘Highly Unusual’ That Government Can Appoint Directors to Trudeau Foundation Board: Charity Expert

The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation is governed by a board of up to 18 directors, and Canada’s industry minister has the power to appoint two of those directors, something charity expert Kate Bahen says she has never seen before.

It’s “highly unusual” for the government to have this influence on a charity, even when the government gives an endowment, Bahen told The Epoch Times.

That’s a very blurred line.

Why is Justin Trudeau sowing confusion about a foreign influence registry?

Asked this week about the need for Ottawa to create a foreign influence registry, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the internment of Japanese-Canadians in the Second World War and warned against the dangers of creating “registries of foreigners in Canada.”

The one thing has nothing to do with the other, as we will show. So the question becomes, why is Mr. Trudeau sowing confusion about a registry that exists in the United States and Australia, and which, somehow, has not led to the mass incarceration of citizens in those countries?

Race baiting is what Trudeau does.

Freeland’s Disney+ comment made her a villain, records show

Once upon a time, Chrystia Freeland attempted to relate to Canadians’ cost-of-living concerns with a personal anecdote — and it didn’t produce a fairy-tale ending.

“I personally, as a mother and wife, look carefully at my credit card bill once a month, and last Sunday I said to the kids, ‘You’re older now. You don’t watch Disney anymore. Let’s cut that Disney+ subscription,”‘ Freeland told Global News in an interview that aired on Nov. 6.

She went on to say: “I believe that I need to take exactly the same approach with the federal government’s finances, because that’s the money of Canadians.”

Justin Trudeau and a list of vacations that got him in trouble

The Trudeau family loves its holidays.

Of course, we all do. But most of us aren’t taking holidays that land us in the soup.

The most recent one, according to a CBC report published Monday, was that Justin Trudeau and his family — plus the assorted cadre of staff and bodyguards — travelled to Jamaica last year to stay at a luxurious resort owned by Peter Green, who also happens to be a donor to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.

Trudeau’s Jamaica vacation shows ‘lack of judgment,’ opposition leaders say

Opposition leaders slammed what they called Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s “lack of judgment” Tuesday after it was revealed he spent his Christmas vacation at the Jamaica home of a wealthy donor to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation.

Radio-Canada reported that Trudeau vacationed at Prospect, a “luxurious estate” with seaside villas owned by the Green family. Alexander and Andrew Green made a large donation to the foundation in 2021 to establish a scholarship in memory of their mother.
