Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Tuesday the first federal budget in two years, which will be presented on April 19, would offer the support that is needed to those struggling during the pandemic, plus a plan to boost growth.
Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Alberta’s Petrostate Propaganda Has Turned Conspiratorial
All the powers of North America and Europe have entered into an unholy alliance: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. President Joe Biden, eco-socialists and industrial heavyweights. They have conspired to enact a “fundamental paradigm shift,” or a Great Transformation, “to a new energy economy that will halt fossil fuel use and development,” all with the secret goal of establishing “a new global low-carbon, net-zero civilization.”
Canada Must Reject Capital Gains Tax On Homes, & Crack Down On Foreign Speculation In Our Housing Market Instead
Why would we impose more taxes on Canadians when we could instead put limits on foreign speculation?
Diane Francis: New study finds delaying second doses of COVID vaccine could put lives at risk
The Liberal government’s failure to procure enough COVID-19 vaccines is hurting the economy, which is why many provinces have opted to delay the second dose in order to get as many people partially vaccinated as possible in short order. But a new study out of the United Kingdom suggests this strategy could be putting lives at risk.
Pfizer and Moderna recommend that their two doses be given around 21 days apart, but Health Canada and the National Advisory Council on Immunization have agreed to stretch it out to 105 days, solely because of Ottawa’s procurement bungling.
Trudeau’s gun-control legislation all smoke and mirrors
I have been a legal, responsible gun owner since my early teens.
I’m a hunter, not a criminal, and certainly not the cause of gun crime.
Corbella: Trudeau’s blaming of Mulroney on vaccine problems delusional, say experts
For months now, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has blamed everyone for Canada’s trickle of COVID-19 vaccines but himself.
Trudeau and his ministers have gone so far as to blame former Progressive Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney — who was prime minister from 1984 to 1993 — for the privatization, or “the selling off“, of Connaught Laboratories. What he fails to mention is that Connaught Labs didn’t go anywhere. It’s now part of Sanofi Pasteur, the world’s largest manufacturer of vaccines. The Connaught Campus in Toronto accounts for one-fifth of the company’s global vaccine sales.

DETAILS: Trudeau Liberals proposed expanding authority under Emergencies Act
Trudeau’s staff detailed potential changes to the Emergencies Act last year to force price caps on manufacturers and “expand” the authority of the procurement minister, Anita Anand, while the prime minister publicly rejected the need for such amendments.
Why does Canada’s foreign aid policy keep stumbling?
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s last overseas trip before the pandemic struck was to Africa.
His first stop was Ethiopia, the top recipient of Canadian aid in the world. There he praised Nobel Peace Prize winner President Abiy Ahmed, citing his “leadership,” the reforms he had brought forward and the way the PM saw the president “pulling Ethiopians together.”
This month, Foreign Affairs Minister Marc Garneau had to call his Ethiopian counterpart to express “Canada’s deep concern regarding credible reports of human rights violations and abuses” in the Tigray region.
Why does Canada’s foreign aid policy keep stumbling? Because it’s a bad idea.
Majority of Canadians oppose government censorship of speech online
According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the study, which gauged Canadians’ reactions to combating misinformation and hate speech, revealed that over half of respondents opposed government regulation.
GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau’s carbon tax to increase 33% on April 1
When Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in December that now is not the time to raise taxes on Canadians because of the COVID-19 pandemic, he excluded his carbon tax.
That’s because the carbon tax is scheduled to increase by 33% on April 1, up from its current level of $30 per tonne of industrial greenhouse gas emissions to $40 per tonne.
Rex Murphy: This isn’t just ‘a political scandal.’ It’s a WE scandal
‘This is a political scandal for the government, not for WE Charity.’ — Marc Kielburger at Monday’s House of Commons ethics committee hearing.
So, Marc, it’s a scandal you say, but just for the government, not for WE. I presume you mean the present government led by Justin Trudeau. A scandal for the Liberal government.
Trudeau Government Funds Toronto Based Communist China Mouthpiece
Canadian group echoes China’s party line on Uyghurs after getting $160,000 in public funds
A Toronto-based community group that has received more than $160,000 in federal funding has again issued a statement echoing China’s official line on a contentious issue, this time condemning Parliament’s recent Uyghur-genocide motion.
A prominent Canadian advocate for the Uyghur people noted that his own group has sought for years to obtain Ottawa’s financial help, with no success.
Canada’s China class at work.
GUNTER: Is Justin Trudeau the lost Kielburger triplet?
Is it possible our prime minister, Justin Trudeau, is in reality the lost Kielburger triplet?
From time to time on Monday, during the Commons Ethics committee testimony of WE Charity pitchmen, Marc and Craig Kielburger, I’ll admit I wondered whether maybe Craig Kielburger and Justin Trudeau were the same person.
More than the Second World War: Here’s the eyewatering debt Canada is racking up
Remember when, in the 2015 Canadian general election, candidate Justin Trudeau made the controversial pledge to run up a $10 billion deficit? The Conservatives hated it, of course, but even the NDP accused the Liberals of spending on the “shoulders of future generations.”
Fast forward six years, and Canada’s deficit for fiscal year 2021 is projected to top out at an eyewatering $381.6 billion. We’ve all gotten used to massive quantities of borrowed money being thrown around during COVID-19 (particularly when the Americans keep approving trillion-dollar spending bills) but Canada is currently burning through borrowed money at a rate that is unprecedented in our history.
