Toronto could spend $68M to house refugees in hotel — weeks after scathing AG report on shelter costs

And you know as I do that most of the “benefit shoppers” will end up in Toronto.

City of Toronto staff have unveiled a plan to lease a North York hotel for more than $68 million and convert it into a temporary home for refugees — just weeks after an auditor’s report slammed the city’s handling of contracts with local hotels it uses as shelters.

Coun. John Filion, who represents the area and is also vice chair of the city’s audit committee, said he only found out about the plan to lease the 17-storey Hotel Novotel from city staff less than two weeks ago. Even so, he said he’s committed to ensuring the red flags pointed out by Auditor General Beverly Romeo-Beehler last month are addressed.

“I’m all over the contract,” said Filion, who represents Ward 18, Willowdale. “I want to know everything that’s going on here.”

This Is What Happens If You Criticize Justin Trudeau in the Press


Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to New York Post writer and independent journalist Rav Arora. Rav discusses his op-ed criticizing the authoritarian policies of Justin Trudeau. The op-ed lambasted Trudeau for policies like the vaccine mandates that trapped unvaccinated Canadians in their country and the shutting down of bank accounts of protesters who participated in the Freedom Convoy under the Emergencies Act. Rav did not expect Justin Trudeau’s administration to respond in the way that it did. Rav explains why an independent free press is difficult to sustain in Canada and the threats of Western authoritarianism.

On passports and airports, public patience with Liberals is running out

Here’s a number the federal government would like you to know.

Between February and June of this year, the amount of Canadians travelling by air shot up 280 per cent. In the United States, the increase was just 25 per cent.

The number comes from Transport Canada, and the reason federal Liberals want us all to know about it is because they argue it’s why families are camped out at Canadian airports and why police have had to intervene in unruly passport lineups that stretch around the block.

Rex Murphy: The Liberals are out to lunch on high gas prices

Does Chrystia Freeland, can Chrystia Freeland, actually think that this is what goes through the minds of people when they see gas costing more than eight bucks a gallon? That they are glad, they are grateful, that emptying their wallets or fattening their credit-card debt is “reminding” them of “why climate action is so important?”

Freeland Fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree.

The Federal Government’s Little Secret: Internet Prices Are Soaring

Unlike the costs of other essential goods such as gas and groceries, Canada’s internet price hikes are not driven by inflation. These rising costs come courtesy of the CRTC and federal government, who have handed pricing power to large telecom companies including Bell and Rogers by refusing to implement lower wholesale rates that smaller firms such as TekSavvy rely on to deliver competitive services to customers.

Shorter Freeland: DIE PEASANTS

Surging energy prices harmful to families, should drive green transition: Freeland

OTTAWA — Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said the federal government is absolutely concerned about inflation, but dismissed critics who called her callous and out of touch for suggesting the high cost of gas is a reminder of why we need to transition to greener energy solutions.


The Liberals are fanatics.

They are more than willing to sacrifice the economic well being, health and welfare of you and your family to their green-scam masters.

They will of course be comfortably cushioned from the new world order’s harsh realities.

They are no different than the people who ran the Gulags.

Stalin may as well be their mentor – “a single death is a tragedy, a million deaths are a statistic.”

Because that’s what you are to them a nameless number on a list.

When you’re convinced of doing the “Lord’s Work” there is no depravity too great.

Lich crown prosecutor donated $17K to Liberals, attended Trudeau fundraiser

On Tuesday, Karimjee appeared before an Ottawa court to argue that Lich had breached her bail conditions and deserves to be seen behind bars again after being photographed with fellow organizer Tom Marazzo at a Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedom’s award gala.

As a result of the hearing, the overseeing Justice of the Peace ordered that Lich will remain in jail until Friday afternoon while he makes a decision on her bail hearing.

In a prior heated bail hearing that saw Lich released, Karimjee demanded that the overseeing judge stepped down from the trial.

Our government is censoring us, and with Bill C-11 it will get worse

The recent contretemps between the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission and Radio-Canada about the use of the n-word during a radio segment reminds us that the CRTC is all about the control of speech. Usually, the commission farms out its censorship to a specialized agency, but this time it did the dirty work itself. Two commissioners dissented, arguing that the CRTC was engaging in censorship without regard to the right to freedom of expression set forth in the Constitution.

Passengers come up empty in search for luggage at Pearson

Some frustrated passengers who arrived at Pearson International days ago have returned to the airport repeatedly to try to find their lost luggage — without success.

“I have absolutely no idea why a developed country like this cannot figure out luggage. For me, it’s just unacceptable. It’s a disaster,” said Daniel Baheta, of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, who’s visiting family in Toronto for a month.

How Banning Alberta Oil Benefits Saudi Arabia, And Possibly Justin Trudeau

As federal Canadian politicians pat themselves on the back regarding climate change leadership, tanker-loads of foreign oil are delivered regularly to Eastern Canadian refineries, including increasing volumes from Saudi Arabia.

As published by the Financial Post, the Saudis have conducted a “not-so-subtle campaign of economic warfare against Canada and others to permanently cripple their respective oil industries.”

“Strangely enough, Canada is helping them do it.”
