To reduce the deficit, Canadians want increased taxes on the wealthy and large corporations

In mid-July, the Broadbent Institute and the Professional Institute for the Public Service of Canada commissioned Abacus Data to conduct a national public opinion survey to explore attitudes and opinions about the federal deficit and the post-pandemic recovery.

Taxing the rich will allow the Liberals to send more money overseas.

Canadian Universities Promote Anti-Anglophone Critical Race Theory

Originating in the mid-1970s, Critical Race Theory is liberal academic ideology which espouses that white supremacy “exists and maintains power through law.”

Within CRT theory, the term “whiteness”is defined as “specific dimensions of racism that serves to elevate white people over people of colour.”

It should be of no surprise that this form of prejudice against Anglo-European citizens is quietly working its way into Canadian universities. Nor should it appear shocking that our Liberal government has integrated critical race theory ideology into their training materials.

WE Charity awarded multiple government contracts without competition: new report

Ombudsman Alexander Jeglic found a number of contracts exhibiting a troubling pattern of favouritism towards WE. These contracts were dated prior to the government’s controversial decision to award the charity a $43.5 million pandemic grant to oversee the $912 million federal Summer Student Service Grant, which was ultimately axed following public outcry.

GUNTER: Latest WE Charity report is bad news for Liberals

“… In some instances, the department giving out the contract would contact WE in advance of the project being made public and outline just what the department was looking for. This could have given the Kielburgers a competitive advantage over other organizations that might also be interested in bidding.

On at least one occasion, Jeglic found, department officials suggested to WE an amount it might bid that could beat out any rivals.

And on another occasion, the ombudsman appears to have found that the cost of a contract awarded to WE was established after the charity had been given the deal.”

3 Liberal MPs say they will not run in the next federal election

Liberal MPs Karen McCrimmon, Adam Vaughan and Will Amos said Sunday they will not run again in the next federal election.

McCrimmon has served as parliamentary secretary to several ministers since her election in Kanata—Carleton in 2015, and is the chair of the parliamentary committee on national defence.

I’m sure Justin has plenty of stiffs left in the closet.

Terence Corcoran: Canada’s first ‘net-zero’ carbon fiasco

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s pre-election bailout of Newfoundland and Labrador’s Muskrat Follies hydroelectric mega-boondoggle was announced last week with preposterous “build-back-better” claims about creating “a healthier and more prosperous future” that will help achieve a clean and decarbonized energy system for the province and the country.

B.C. privacy watchdog investigating federal Liberals over facial recognition software

OTTAWA — British Columbia’s privacy watchdog is launching an investigation into the federal Liberal party’s use of facial recognition technology to pick candidates for the next election.

B.C. information and privacy commissioner Michael McEvoy’s office confirmed the investigation today following a complaint from the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.

The Liberals have been using the technology to verify the identity of those eligible to vote in meetings to nominate candidates who will run for the party in the next federal campaign.

Those nomination meetings are normally held in person, but have moved online this summer because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Government of Canada announces funding to address gender-based violence and advance gender equality

Everyone has the right to live free from violence. Unacceptably, too many people in Canada continue to experience violence every day because of their gender, gender expression, gender identity or perceived gender. This issue has only been magnified by the COVID-19 pandemic in communities across the country. That’s why the Government of Canada is collaborating with partners to address and prevent gender-based violence in all its forms.

From the start of the pandemic, the Government of Canada has taken swift measures to support front-line organizations providing essential supports and services to women and their families experiencing gender-based violence through COVID-19 emergency funding.

LEVY: Government-subsidized “affordable” housing is not the least bit affordable

In the past six months, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has handed over hundreds of millions of dollars in affordable housing money to Toronto with no checks and balances.

The two announcements – Jan. 15 and July 29 – gave Toronto $335-million in Rapid Housing Initiative money for 773 “affordable homes.”

In reality, they will be mostly tiny modular housing units of 325-square-feet lumped together in a multi-residential building.
