The ‘task force’ Mark Carney was hired to lead has no members but him

Ignatieff but without the charm.

OTTAWA — Weeks after Mark Carney’s appointment as chair of the prime minister’s special new task force on economic growth, his outfit appears to have no firm deadline for its findings, no scheduled events and no other members except Carney.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that the former governor of Canada’s and England’s central banks and a rumoured Liberal leadership contender would be chair of the new “Leader’s Task Force on Economic Growth,” at the Liberal caucus retreat in early September. Carney’s role means he will be working for the Liberal party and not the government.

Is Trudeau sabotaging this guy?

Delicate TTC tracks mean slow subways are ‘new normal,’ advocacy group worries

Advocates are raising concerns that a web of restricted speed zones across Toronto’s transit network is making slow subways the city’s “new normal” as the rail system shows its age.

The TTC has introduced restricted speed zones for trains in places where “certain defects have been documented” in order to reduce the wear and tear suffered by older portions of the track.

There will come a day when no one will be left who can recall when TO wasn’t a shithole.

Hostin Claims Trump Is Like a Nazi Literally Planning a Second Kristallnacht

Sunny Hostin – shit for brains

Less than a month after the second assassination attempt on former President Trump’s life, staunchly racist and anti-Semitic co-host Sunny Hostin (the descendant of slave owners) spewed dangerous, incendiary rhetoric against him on the Monday episode of ABC’s The View. According to her, Trump was a Nazi who was literally planning a second Kristallnacht but against “black and brown communities,” if he was to get elected again.

Joly warns UN about Trudeau government

‘They claim freedom as an excuse to do as they wish:’ Mélanie Joly warns UN about leaders who undermine democracy

OTTAWA—Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly took aim Monday at divisive political leaders who “weaponize” the word freedom in a speech to the United Nations that was one-part foreign policy, one-part domestic politics, and one-part personal positioning.

Joly delivered Canada’s formal address to the 79th UN general assembly in New York just days after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended a series of meetings there. In it she underscored the Liberal government’s oft-stated commitment to peacemaking efforts in Afghanistan, Haiti, the Middle East and Ukraine.

Project much? The woman has zero self-awareness.

Are we living in a simulation?

Scientist claims we’re simply characters in an advanced AI world – and says the proof is hidden in the BIBLE

If you feel like you’re living in a convincing virtual reality akin to The Matrix, a scientist thinks you may well be right.

Melvin Vopson, an associate professor in physics at the University of Portsmouth, claims our entire universe may be an advanced computer simulation.

And the proof that this so-called simulation hypothesis is correct may be hiding in plain sight in the Bible.

He’s not the first to advance the simulation theory. I’m still confused by the multiverse stuff.

Residential school survivors press Ottawa for more money to find more fake graves

A group of residential school survivors and their supporters are asking the federal government to reverse what they’re calling a funding cut and come up with more money to help find the unmarked graves of students who went to these institutions.

The request comes the same day Canada marks the fourth annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, established in 2021 to honour the survivors of residential schools, and the children who never came home from them.

The Survivors’ Secretariat, which is parsing through decades-old records and searching the grounds of the former Mohawk Institute near Brantford, Ont., is leading the charge against a series of changes that Ottawa announced earlier this year that it says will reduce the total pool of money available to Indigenous communities to document residential school atrocities and deaths.
