Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Government spent $570 million on foreign-made sanitizer while Canadian companies produced for free
According to CBC, companies across Canada answered Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s plea to help meet the hand sanitizer shortage in the spring. However, as these companies produced sanitizer at no-cost, they later learned that the government opted to purchase from foreign companies instead.
Of the $570 million, $252 million went to BYD Canada Co., a Chinese company with only a handful of employees in Canada.
FERNANDO: The ‘Great Reset’ Is No Conspiracy, It’s Happening Now
“An opportunity for a reset.” – Justin Trudeau
“A ‘great reset’ of capitalism.” – Klaus Schwab, World Economic Forum
“I want ideas on how the government can ‘unlock’ your savings.” – Chrystia Freeland
‘The Great Reset’ – literally a presentation from the Bank of Canada on their website.
You can see a common theme here: Using this crisis to promote and discuss how to expand the power of an already overbearing government, reshaping the world in the political image of the elites, and imposing an agenda they couldn’t get support for otherwise.
Churches “make an easy target” for COVID fines
Recently in Manitoba, things have gotten a bit out of hand, as Premier/Grinch Brian Pallister’s enforcement of new restrictions has seen more than $180,000 in fines dished out in a week. A popular target for Pallister’s charges has been a church in Steinbach, where a pastor was recently charged for organizing a protest.
Trudeau government won’t say who got billions of dollars in aid
While the government has made available high-level aggregate spending statistics, or estimates of the net fiscal impact, for the more than 100 programs it has launched since the pandemic began, only a few departments have released details about which individuals, groups or companies have received government money.
KNIGHT: Governments need to govern, not dictate
Last week, Canadians witnessed the arrest of Adam Skelly – a restaurant owner in Toronto who dared to disobey John Tory’s draconian edicts. Dozens of Toronto police officers surrounded the restaurant and police put up barricades around the perimeter to prevent any customer from going in to get a BBQ sandwich.
Non-Firearm Owners Should Care About Trudeau Grabbing Guns
One of the things law-abiding Canadian firearms owners find most frustrating about the Liberal federal government attempting to take away their property is the non-gun owning publics’ naive approval of the whole situation.

Protest erupts in Senate after Justin Trudeau The Bribetaker Was called a Bribetaker in reference to the We Charity scandal
Them’s fighting words.
Quebec Senator Leo Housakos called Prime Minister Justin Trudeau a bribe taker in the We Charity scandal, prompting a chorus of “Shame! Shame!” from other senators in the chamber, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
The accusation came while they were debating a motion to investigate federal funding for the organization.
Rex Murphy: A 237-page fiscal update but still no budget?
Finance Canada’s Top Bureaucrat Announces Departure A Day After The Government’s Fall Economic Update, screamed a headline on the National Post’s website. Ya, he probably resigned after actually reading the document.
With $400 billion to play with, one would think that Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s communications team could find at least one person to touch up her speech on Monday about the “Fall Economic Statement” who isn’t running an active vendetta against the English language.
GUNTER: Is Trudeau pushing Canada into a unitary state, instead of a federation?
The most obvious aspect of Monday’s federal fiscal update is that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau clearly doesn’t understand economics any better than when he was a precocious, trust-fund baby in sophomore poli sci at McGill.
He seems, truly, to believe money is created through some magical process it is unnecessary to understand or respect.
FUREY: Trudeau’s economic statement is all about the Great Reset
My guess is the news coverage about Monday’s economic statement will inform Canadians about the record deficit planned and the extra funding initiatives now on offer courtesy of the feds.
But there’s something else Canadians need to know about the plan that charts the government’s fiscal path for the coming months and even years. And that’s the troubling ideology running through the whole thing.
GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau turns Canada into deficit-ridden, nanny state
When the history of the COVID-19 pandemic is written, it should include a chapter about how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau engineered “The Great Reset” of the role government plays in our lives, without even bringing in a budget.
How it wasn’t done in secret, but out in the open.
Criminalizing Everything
A pastor, a politician and a restaurateur are among those charged for their protests against government lockdowns in the past week under the guise of public health, revealing the criminalization of everything and everyone who dares to stand up for their civil liberties.
Liberals to spend $100B to jolt post-pandemic economy after posting record $381B deficit
The Liberal government is preparing to spend up to $100 billion to kick start the post-pandemic economy as it stares down a record-high deficit projection of more than $381 billion for this fiscal year.
In a long-awaited economic statement, tabled today, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said the government’s immediate priority is to do “whatever it takes” to help Canadians and businesses stay safe and solvent.
The short-term stimulus package is valued at $70 billion to $100 billion over roughly three years. The government says the stimulus spending — intended to build a greener, more inclusive, more innovative and competitive economy — will launch after a vaccine is distributed and life begins to return to normal.
More from CTV… Federal deficit on track to exceed $381B, as spending increases in wake of second COVID-19 wave
OTTAWA — The federal government is unveiling a new round of financial supports to respond to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, as the latest projections show the national deficit is projected to hit a new high: at least $381.6 billion this fiscal year.
The deficit is growing for several reasons: ongoing pandemic supports, $25.1 billion in newly-announced programs aimed at getting badly-hit businesses through the next few months, as well as the early allocations being made to help rebuild the economy once the urgent health crisis passes. The Liberals are also making moves towards boosting transfer payments to the provinces.
Many Liberals will benefit.
But… Opposition parties signal they will not support the Liberals’ spending plans. Is an election next?
OTTAWA—The federal Opposition parties greeted the long-awaited economic update with a big collective thumbs down.
The initial reactions of Opposition leaders signal new spending measures, totaling $25 billion, may not find support across the aisle, which could trigger another crisis of confidence in the minority Trudeau government.
This is BS, it’s the opening gambit for taxpayer extortion by the Bloc and NDP, Trudeau will buy them off and survive.
