Justin Trudeau’s ‘carbon tax’ is losing more allies as Pierre Poilievre’s relentless assault continues

OTTAWA — When it comes to its national carbon pricing regime, the Liberal government is getting lonelier and lonelier.

First it was the opposition New Democrats who raised questions about their support for a policy they had unambiguously championed in the past two federal election campaigns. Earlier this spring, and again this week, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh suggested his party is looking at other carbon pricing options as it designs a new climate plan for the next campaign. Whatever they come up with, Singh claimed, would not impose a burden on everyday Canadians.

In Bid for Global Dominance, Beijing Builds EV Factories in Africa

JOHANNESBURG—China has started to build factories across Africa to manufacture electric vehicles, a strategy market analysts say will likely flood the world with cheap EVs and allow Chinese companies to dominate the global automobile industry far into the future.

Automakers under the communist regime are already benefiting from huge subsidies, resulting in dramatic increases in production and allowing China to severely undercut prices of EVs made elsewhere, including in the United States.

One study shows Beijing has given China’s EV manufacturers at least $231 billion in state aid over 15 years, from 2009 until the end of 2023.

Meghan Markle is a Bitch

Why Hollywood Keeps Quitting on Harry and Meghan

Looks like Harry and Meghan have done it again — they’ve chewed up yet another American adviser.

Josh Kettler, the Santa Barbara-based consultant who’d been serving as chief of staff to the Duke and Duchess, reportedly resigned in August — after just three months on the job — becoming the latest member of the ever-expanding “Sussex Survivors Club,” as some former employees have taken to calling themselves. Before Kettler, there was Toya Holness, who was their global press secretary until 2022, and Christine Weil Schirmer, the onetime Pinterest communications director who quit as Harry and Meghan’s PR head in 2021. Samantha Cohen, Markle’s top aide and private secretary, departed the same year.

It’s not just Trudeau: The Liberals’ days as the natural governing party are done

Canada is likely on track for a significant milestone. If there were a federal election tomorrow, and Canadians vote as they say they would, there would be more elected NDP politicians at both the federal and provincial levels than Liberals.

According to the latest projection from poll aggregator 338Canada.com, the Conservatives would win 212 seats in a federal election, up from the 119 they won in 2021. The Liberals would have 77 MPs, down from 160 in 2021, and the NDP would have 16 seats, down from 25. In the short term, the NDP, tarnished by a governing deal with the unpopular Liberals, would look like they are losing momentum.

To Stop Hamas, Confront Qatar and Iran

It is almost unimaginable that in the 21st century, such horrors would still take place. The brutal acts of Hamas remind us of the darkest periods in history, such as the atrocities committed by Hitler’s Germany. Yet, the Iranian regime and its proxies — particularly terrorist groups like Hamas — continue to bring new levels of barbarity into the modern world.

The recent recovery of six executed Israeli hostages, including Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, from a tunnel in Rafah highlights the extent of this cruelty. These hostages, four of whom were scheduled to be released in a draft ceasefire deal, were murdered by Hamas before Israeli Defense Forces could reach them — a reminder of the inhumanity and savagery of Hamas, emboldened by their Iranian backers.

Temporary foreign workers’ class-action suit over Canada’s closed work permits clears hurdle

Migrant workers are one step closer to getting their day in court to challenge part of Canada’s temporary foreign worker program as unconstitutional for restricting them to working only for their sponsoring employers.

On Friday, a Quebec court gave the green light to a class-action lawsuit initiated by a Guatemalan worker, who alleges that the closed work permit system, in place since 1966, was rooted in direct discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin and colour, violating the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

It makes you wonder if Justin or his backers are coaching this behind the scenes.

MSNBC Tries Scolding Young People Unpersuaded By Harris, Taylor Swift

When Jimmy Kimmel eventually retires, maybe MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle could take his place. On Friday, Ruhle was not happy with young Republicans who are unpersuaded by Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris because they care more about economic issues than social one because she could not “remember the last time I heard Kamala Harris talk about anything like that.” Meanwhile, RiskReversal Media co-founder Dan Nathan unironically replied by hyping that Harris is supposedly “destroying” Donald Trump on abortion.

LILLEY: Trudeau has broken every aspect of our immigration system

If it wasn’t clear already, this past week showed there isn’t a single facet of the immigration system the Liberals haven’t broken.

A man on a student visa was in court on terrorism charges, a TD bank report showed temporary workers are harming the economy, and the Trudeau government started talking about moving tens of thousands of asylum seekers across the country.

“We could open a hotel in any particular province and ship people there,” Immigration Minister Marc Miller said at the Liberal caucus retreat.

West emboldening Putin, says Zelensky, as US delays missile approval

Volodymyr Zelensky accused the West of emboldening Vladimir Putin as the United States put off a decision to arm Ukraine with long-range missiles amid escalating tensions.

The Ukrainian president questioned Britain and America’s commitment to supporting Ukraine’s defence against Russia, expressing frustration at the time it was taking for them to authorise the use of western-supplied missiles to strike targets across the border.

Cabinet minister tells Liberals to ‘change their attitude’ as MPs return to Commons

A cabinet minister who serves as the federal Liberals’ national campaign co-chair told MPs at the party’s recent caucus retreat that they need to “change their attitudes” if they want to turn around their dismal polling numbers, sources tell CBC News.

More than half-a-dozen Liberal MPs asked CBC News for confidentiality in order to offer a behind-the-scenes look at the recent two-day caucus retreat in Nanaimo, B.C.

Free speech storm embroils church after vicar sacked over ‘anti-woke’ YouTube channel

A church is embroiled in a free speech row after sacking a vicar who ran an anti-woke YouTube channel.

Breakaway Anglican denomination, the Free Church of England (FCE), dismissed the Rev Brett Murphy last month after ruling that the “nature and tone” of videos he posted online had brought the church “into disrepute”.

The FCE took issue with the vicar using the term “witch” to refer to female priests.
