Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre today questioned the federal government on how it will respond to Beijing’s reported crackdown on protests that have been breaking out across the country in response to restrictive COVID-19 measures.
“There’s a wave of protests across China right now, and there are now reports of government crackdowns against those protests,” Poilievre said during question period in the House of Commons on Nov. 28.
OTTAWA – Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino accuses the Conservatives of “whipping up fear” that the Liberal government is outlawing ordinary long guns and hunting rifles.
In an interview, Mendicino says the government only wants to reinforce a regulatory ban on assault-style firearms like the AR-15 by enshrining a definition in legislation, and it is prepared to work with MPs to get it right.
He insists the government has no intention whatsoever of going after everyday long guns and hunting rifles, calling the notion “Conservative fearmongering.”

… Consider that over the past year, fewer than 200,000 housing units were completed. There were 3.6 new residents for every home added, the highest ratio since at least 1991. Affordability is deteriorating in most places. There is a fundamental mismatch between home supply and demand – and the population boom is contributing to the divide.
At the same time, Canadian governments are struggling to deliver basic services. Surgeries are getting cancelled in crammed hospitals. Canadians can’t find family doctors, let alone newcomers trying to navigate an ailing health care system. Cash-strapped cities can’t refurbish their infrastructure as fast as it’s falling into disrepair.
Do we need mass immigration? No. The Corporate class wants slaves.
Trudeau government unveils long-awaited plan to confront an ‘increasingly disruptive’ China
Canada’s long-awaited Indo-Pacific Strategy describes China as “an increasingly disruptive global power” on the world stage — a social and economic force that’s too big to ignore but is also increasingly focused on bending international rules to suit its own interests.
Using some surprisingly blunt language, the strategy says the Canadian government needs to be “clear-eyed” about China’s objectives in the Far East and elsewhere. It promises to spend almost half a billion dollars over five years on improving military and intelligence cooperation with allies in the region.
“China’s rise, enabled by the same international rules and norms that it now increasingly disregards, has had an enormous impact on the Indo-Pacific, and it has ambitions to become the leading power in the region,” says the 26-page document, which was provided to the media in advance of its formal release in Vancouver on Sunday.
Junior refuses to divulge which Candidates received ChiCom funding last election, my guess is the majority were LPC 5th Columnists.
This is all just smoke and mirrors, it’ll be business as usual for Canada’s China class.

No redactions have evoked as much frustration as the government’s claim of solicitor-client privilege, which it used to hide legal advice it received before invoking the Act
OTTAWA — After six weeks and 76 witnesses, including the prime minister and much of his cabinet, public hearings on the use of the Emergencies Act are done, but some crucial questions remain.
What did the government hide behind document redactions, and what was the key legal advice cabinet leaned on to invoke the act?
Amid the media praise for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s performance as the final witness at the public inquiry into his invocation of the Emergencies Act, keep in mind his government refused to give the inquiry a key piece of evidence Justice Paul Rouleau wanted to see.
The government has four bills before Parliament to reign in tech giants at a time when the industry is retrenching.
Back in the spring my colleague Cade Metz, who covers artificial intelligence, driverless cars, robotics, virtual reality and other new technologies for The New York Times, declared Toronto to be “the third-largest tech hub in North America.”
Toronto moved into that position, he reported, because of investments by global technology giants including Google, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft, which all have offices in the city. During the pandemic, he found, a rapidly rising number of people were working from home for Meta, formerly Facebook. Days after Cade’s article appeared, Meta announced that it, too, was formally joining the rush to Toronto and would open an engineering center with 2,500 people.
Following the publication of worrisome information regarding a Chinese secret campaign to interfere with the 2019 federal elections, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has chosen to stonewall and make this a partisan issue. Considering the importance of what was first reported by Global News, Canadians have the right to honest and thorough answers.
There are growing concerns from Iranian-Canadians who say they are being threatened, monitored and even followed at protests and outside their homes by affiliates of the Iranian regime who are here in Canada.
“They know the view out of my apartment. They said it was a school. That I have three cats. They knew the friends that have come to my house,” said Maryam Shafipour, an Iranian activist who now lives in Canada and who is speaking out against the regime despite the dangers.
Could it have something to do with our political class liking to suck Mullah dick?
Canada Criticized For Welcoming The Rich Linked To Iranian Regime
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau falsely denied Friday he ever called unvaccinated Canadians “names.”
He was either lying or unable to remember his own words. In fact, he called them “racists and misogynistic.”
If there is one thing investors like before committing funds to projects, it’s a sense of stability. They want to know circumstances won’t unexpectedly change and sour their investment. This is particularly true with foreign investors who entrust their capital to a nation over which they have no control. That makes them more skittish and inclined to close their wallets at any sign of political instability or lack of trustworthiness within the government.
The inquiry into the use of the Emergencies Act is in its sixth week, which, it may be useful to note, is about five times longer than the act itself was in force.
Hold in mind that the act was actually only half-passed. It got through the Singh-Trudeau House of Commons. How could it not, Jagmeet Singh and Justin Trudeau having exchanged the political equivalent of lovers’ vows — in greeting card lingo pledging “to be there for each other” any time scandal or Pierre Poilievre’s troops got close to presenting a real challenge.
On the face of it, the fledgling organization’s goals seem innocuous enough — to encourage Chinese-Canadians to run for elected office and vote in elections.
The Chinese Council for Western Ontario Elections says it wants to be an “incubator” for candidates who support the community’s interests and educate newcomers about Canadian democracy.
We are here because Junior eagerly licked Xi Jinping’s arse on behalf of Canada’s China class.
