What we know about William Majcher, the retired RCMP officer charged with conducting foreign interference for China

In 2014, as Beijing was ramping up Operation Fox Hunt, a sprawling campaign to go after corrupt politicians and economic criminals hiding overseas, a representative of the Chinese government approached William Majcher.

A retired former undercover officer with the RCMP, Mr. Majcher had been living in Hong Kong for seven years, working as a corporate investigator and advising banks on money laundering. According to Mr. Majcher, he was invited to meet someone “very close to senior state security,” who asked him whether he would be able to help track down money stolen by corrupt officials.

Nearly 60 per cent of Canadian parents fear for their child’s financial future: survey

A new survey conducted by TD Bank Group shows that nearly 60 per cent of Canadian parents are concerned about their children’s financial future, primarily due to the impact of inflation and the prevailing economic uncertainties in the country.

According to the survey published on Wednesday, an overwhelming majority of surveyed parents (89 per cent) believe that their confidence in their children’s financial future would improve if their kids gained better financial knowledge before their teenage years.

The survey also found that 66 per cent of parents are not highly confident in their children’s current financial knowledge.

Concern is what parents do but we do not live in ordinary times.

Our government is run by sanctimonius idiots who believe destroying the wealth of our nation will bend the planet to their will.

Our education system is overrun by perverts and no longer fit for purpose.

Few can afford rent let alone dream of purchasing a home yet the political class insist mass immigration is the answer to all ills.

It isn’t, it is the ill.

John Robson: Governor General has come to embody the extravagant hypocrisy of our Liberal elite

Watching Canadian “leaders” commit blunder after blunder reminds me of an old jibe about Philip II of Spain that, “No experience of the failure of his policy could shake his belief in its essential excellence.” And of what Marie Antoinette famously did not say about brioches, because it’s less about policies than a sublime sense of personal excellence. Hence our high-flying Governor General just racked up $71,000 in limousine services alone during her four-day trip to Iceland last October. Where do they get this sense of entitlement, and how can we make it stop?

Canada’s ‘Guest of Honour’ Sponsorship of 2021 German Book Fair Cost Over $18 Million: Audit

The federal government paid over $18 million in 2021 for it’s “guest of honour” sponsorship of that year’s Frankfurt Book Fair, according to a newly disclosed federal audit. Gov. Gen. Mary Simon attended the fair with over 30 guests.

“The Department of Canadian Heritage incurred costs of approximately $17.5 million in connection with its responsibilities,” said the department’s “Audit Of Frankfurt Book Fair Controls,” as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.

Sources say Justin Trudeau wants to transform the RCMP. Will he turn the Mounties into Canada’s version of FBI agents?

OTTAWA — The Royal Canadian Mounted Police could one day transform into a federal police agency that operates more like the FBI under an ambitious but controversial concept that has gained new traction in the nation’s capital, the Star has learned.

The idea that the RCMP should get out of the business of front-line, day-to-day policing — duties the Mounties now carry out under contracts to provinces — and shift its focus to challenges like national security, terrorism, financial crimes, cybercrime or organized crime, is not a new one.

Given the Trudeau government’s anti-democratic record to date I would not be surprised to see the RCMP formally politicized as an entity primarily concerned with criminalizing dissent.

Given CSIS is waging a civil war against Trudeau and his China Class cronies it may be Trudeau hopes to set up his own version of the Ton Ton Macoute to undermine efforts at exposing the corruption of our political and corporate class. The demonic laughter you hear in the background is Freezer of Bank Accounts Freeland cackling like a Nazi once removed.

Jack Mintz: Forget the ‘just transition.’ It’s the Boondoggle Transition

Forget “energy transition” and “just transition” to describe the transformation of our energy systems. Call it the “boondoggle transition” because that’s what it is turning into.

The $30 billion to be paid by the federal and Ontario governments to just two electric-vehicle battery companies — Volkswagen and Stellantis-LG Energy Solution — is just the tip of the iceberg. It’s expected that together the two projects will “create” 5,500 jobs (though most of the workers likely will come from other jobs) at an eye-popping ten-year cost of $5.5 million per worker. Even if you spread the earnings over 10 years, that’s $550,000 a year, nine times the average Canadian’s annual earnings of $61,000.

Trudeau government snubs global LNG conference in Vancouver

Imagine being the federal minister in charge of the energy file and skipping a major world conference on a lower carbon that was happening in your own backyard.

This isn’t an imaginary scenario, the minister who did this is Jonathan Wilkinson, Justin Trudeau’s minister of natural resources.

Fighting Foreign Influence: Beijing Exploits Gaps in Canadian Law; David Matas Proposes Remedies

Beijing and other tyrannical regimes exploit gaps in Canadian law to advance their transnational repression in Canada, and a prominent international human rights lawyer says this is a problem that calls for comprehensive legislation to combat their foreign interference.

Winnipeg-based lawyer David Matas, senior legal counsel for B’nai Brith Canada, said repressive states like China, Russia, and Iran have been exploiting organizations such as the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) to harass and intimidate their own nationals even after they’ve fled abroad to escape persecution back home. He said malign state actors are also abusing conventional mechanisms for international cooperation on criminal matters.

Bank of Canada staff received $26.7 million in bonuses and raises in 2022 – after Macklem told his corporate cronies to deny raises to working people

We really need to resurrect Tarring & Feathering

Bank of Canada staff received $26.7 million in bonuses and raises in 2022.

According to documents released through access to information requests and published by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, employees at Canada’s central bank received $20.2 million in bonuses and $6.5 million in raises in 2022, a 13 per cent increase over 2021. More than 80 per cent of staff received a bonus or raise in 2022 at a time when the Bank of Canada sought to discourage consumer spending through interest rate hikes.

What sort of evil pencil necked sociopath makes decisions like that? We need to delouse Ottawa.

GTA regions join outcry over funding to shelter Trudeau’s so called asylum seekers

Caution. Some evidence of tampering but”Truthiness” apparent.

A growing number of GTA regions are accusing higher governments of stranding them with the costs of sheltering refugees and asylum seekers — with some announcing shelter closures in response.

The cries for help come as Toronto has been locked in its own funding clash with the federal government, a dispute that has left a crowd of newcomers sleeping outside a street outreach referral centre. On Friday morning, representatives of social services such as refugee centres, hospitals and drop-in centres are expected to gather there to press elected officials to take action.

Why does everything Trudeau puts his hand to seem designed to make Canada a shithole state?

Trudeau government increased federal employees 40% since election in 2015

OTTAWA — Another 21,000 federal workers hired since last year has brought the total added to the federal public service since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was first elected to 98,268, according to information published online by the Treasury Board of Canada.

The federal public service, now at 357,247 employees, is nearly 40 per cent larger than it was in 2015, when the Liberals took power, when it counted 257,034 employees.

Trudeau is creating a vote bloc.

Canada’s secret service is fighting a hidden civil war

The smart money is on the spooks. They have the public on their side

The Canada of our allies’ imagination is a peaceable land of winter, hockey and exquisite politeness. The winter and the hockey haven’t changed. But peaceable and polite? Not since the civil war broke out.

This civil war doesn’t pit Quebec nationalists against English Canada, but centres instead on China. The two sides are a political elite that yearns for the days when China was an economic opportunity, and a national security community aware of Beijing’s ambition to deindustrialize the West economically and neuter it geostrategically.

‘We had no choice’: The inside story of how Doug Ford finally blinked and spent billions of dollars to save an EV battery plant in Ontario

Carlos Tavares, the canny top executive of auto giant Stellantis, says weeks of crisis talks to salvage a Windsor EV battery plant taught him one thing: Canada’s negotiators move way too slowly in a global green industrial race that’s accelerating at warp speed.

“It was difficult to get this agreement inked at the end of the day,” Tavares said in an exclusive interview with the Star from Portugal, “but it was rewarding.”

Rewarding, no question.
