It’s probably far too late and likely just useless anyway, given the current state of Canadian governance, but could someone question where the federal government, or Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, get the authority to do so many of the things they have lately taken to doing?
The Liberal government’s proposal to force online platforms to monitor all user content and take down posts they judge to be illegal “will result in the blocking of legitimate content,” says Google.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently chose to mock and ignore the fact almost two-thirds of Albertans voted in favour of scrapping federal equalization payments to the provinces as unfair to Alberta.
I’ve written a variation on this theme before, but after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Glasgow declaration, it is worth restating: if oil and gas were Quebec’s main industry, defending it, promoting it and declaring it as being in Canada’s national interest would be sacramental imperatives.
After announcing a cap on Canada’s oil and gas sector that will see net zero emissions by 2050, and pledging to ban coal exports by 2030, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday that countries will continue to push each other to be “even more ambitious” on their fight against climate change.
In 2018, an Ekos Research Poll reported that less than 50% of Canadians identify as members of the middle class — a steep drop from nearly 70% in 2002.
“The whole notion of a middle-class dream — I work hard, build a better mousetrap, do better than my parents, my kids do better than me, I get a house, a car, retire in comfort — that has all been shattered.”
That was then, and this is now. The Canadian middle class is shrinking. A distinction between mainstream media and Cultural Action Party theory lies in the balance. For us, the transformation is intentional. It is a systemic “hollowing out” of Canada’s middle class.
When broken down, it cost taxpayers $481 per employee per day when counting wages and benefits. Overall employees received an average $9,547 in furloughs.
The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today announced Canada’s plans to support the global phase-out of thermal coal, help developing countries transition to clean fuel alternatives as quickly as possible, and reduce pollution in the oil and gas sector.
Before she delivered her budget, Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland was so interested in what voters might think that she spent $53,445 on a survey to poll 34 people — eight seniors, eight Quebecers, nine parents, and seven unemployed — on what their instant reactions would be.
Canada will put a cap on oil and gas sector emissions, Trudeau tells COP26 summit
Canada will impose a hard cap on emissions from the oil and gas sector, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday at the COP26 summit in Glasgow.
Calling the promise “a major commitment” that should inspire other resource-rich countries to dramatically curb their own emissions, Trudeau said Canada is prepared to limit the growth of one of the country’s largest industries to help the world hold the global average temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
“We’ll cap oil and gas sector emissions today and ensure they decrease tomorrow at a pace and scale needed to reach net-zero by 2050,” Trudeau said during his two-minute speech in front of other world leaders gathered in Scotland.
Sane people did not vote for Trudeau or for his silly “global warming” fantasy.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will don the mantle of a global warming crusader at a massive United Nations conference on climate change starting in Glasgow, Scotland, on Monday.
He signalled that at the wind-up to a G20 meeting in Rome, Italy, Sunday — a lead-in to the Glasgow summit — which produced a wishy-washy final statement on climate change that will not satisfy anyone who believes it is the existential crisis of our time.
Steven Guilbeault’s first environmental protest took place when he was around five years old, in his hometown of La Tuque, Que.
He lived in a house that backed onto a forest where he used to play, and one day he saw developers removing trees. Panicked, he ran inside to his mother and asked what he should do; she responded that if he climbed a tree, they couldn’t cut it down.
Disinformation, extremism threatening democracies, global economies: Trudeau
… “We cannot pretend that China isn’t there, just cross our arms and ignore it,” he said. “It is too important a player in our economies right now.”
Trudeau added that countries like Canada and the Netherlands have to engage China constructively on trade, on climate change, while challenging it on human rights, the situation in Hong Kong, the Uyghurs, Taiwan and the South China Sea.
Don’t worry slaves, Justin is thinking of you.
The reaction to the most recent cabinet shuffle from a number of current and former Liberal caucus members was visceral.
“They (the current leadership) are vandalizing the economy,” said one senior Liberal (a shopworn phrase that in this case is justified.) “Business-oriented Liberals are apoplectic,” he said.
