Trudeau Vote Whoring: Federal gov’t sparks outrage for giving newcomers free access to Canada’s parks

 

However, people on social media were angry that all Canadians don’t get free admission.

“Why do we even pay taxes?” one person asked. “What is the benefit to living in Canada?”


New Canadians Get Free Admission to Parks

Newcomers to Canada and new citizens can explore the country’s national parks for free this year.

According to Parks Canada, national sites including the Canadian Rockies, parts of the Maritimes, and everywhere in between, can be accessed for free for those new to the country.

Free admission applies to Canada’s national historic sites, national parks, and marine conservation areas and can be claimed through the Institute for Canadian Citizenship’s Canoo mobile app.

Oh that’s great nothing like a little ethnic vote buying.

Court Denies Hunter Biden’s Federal Gun Charges Appeal, Setting Stage for Trial

A federal appeals court on Thursday rejected Hunter Biden’s attempt to appeal his federal gun charges ahead of his scheduled June trial.

The U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals denied Biden’s appeal of Delaware judge Maryellen Noreika’s denial of his three motions to dismiss the gun charges. The panel ruled that Biden lacked jurisdiction and failed to prove the orders are appealable, according to a court filing.

Did Federal Agencies Plant Classified Documents To Frame Trump?

On May 7, Florida Judge Aileen Cannon postponed former President Donald Trump’s classified documents trial after explosive information dropped late Friday afternoon. Several new pieces of evidence indicate it’s even possible federal employees planted classified documents to frame Trump.

Even if what happened isn’t that nefarious — although exactly that scenario has already been deployed against Trump several times — not only could the case be thrown out of court, but some federal lawyers may have risked their licenses for mishandling evidence.

On the Border Crisis Over Illegal Aliens, ‘I Like Ike’

For several months, the Washington rumor was that President Biden was going to come out with some strong executive orders to stop the southern border immigration catastrophe.

After denying it for three years, Mr. Biden finally came out and acknowledged that he has Presidential authority to do something about the border.

President Trump used that authority to develop programs such as “Remain in Mexico” and Title 42.

The West is proving that Islamist terrorism works

What would be the worst foreign policy message imaginable? There are many contenders, but the frontrunner has to be simply that “terrorism works”. Once this lesson has been learnt, the door will be open to years of violence against us. It’s called appeasement, and history has taught us where it leads.

If you, like me, are concerned by the rise of Islamist extremism around the world, the danger it poses to Jewish communities everywhere, and the way it threatens both the firmness of liberal values and our national security, the inconstancy of Western support for Israel in its mission to destroy Hamas – including here in Britain – should fill you with dread.

The entitlement and intolerance of the campus Gaza camps

From the first moment students in the US pitched tents on campus and spouted their hostility towards Israel, it was inevitable that their counterparts in the UK would follow suit. As expected, from Aberdeen to Bristol, from Oxford to Cambridge, British students have set up their own ‘Gaza solidarity’ camps and are donning the uniform of the anti-Israel protester – the keffiyeh and Covid mask combo.

Is the World Better With Women in Charge?

I know a lot of Daily Sceptic, Spectator and Telegraph readers never go anywhere near the Guardian. I, however, read it: one has to know what the enemy is up to. Today there is a characteristically celebratory piece about the Garrick vote to admit women as members. It is by one Jemima Olchawski. Instead of just enjoying the result she tries to make an argument, and it is a terrible one…

Defiant Stormy Daniels spars with ex-prez’s lawyer, riveting jurors at Trump’s ‘hush money’ trial

A defiant Stormy Daniels batted back attempts by Donald Trump’s lawyers to poke holes in her story about a 2006 sex tryst with the ex-president — in a fiery clash that riveted jurors in Manhattan court Thursday.

The 12 Manhattanites serving on the jury at Trump’s hush money trial tried to keep a poker face during the often racy and entertaining testimony, looking back and forth at the attorney and the former porn star trading blows as if watching a tennis match.

Cancelling Joan of Arc?

Every year, the city of Orléans celebrates with pomp and circumstance the liberation of the city from the English yoke during the Hundred Years’ War, thanks to the victorious intervention of Saint Joan of Arc at the head of the French armies. For the occasion, a young girl from the town lends her features to the valiant fighter and is flanked by two young boys as her pages. This year, the town rejected one of the two selected candidates on the grounds that he had frequented the Action Française movement and espoused values “contrary to the Republic”. A kind of paradox: after all, didn’t Jeanne herself fight for her God and her king?

Ignore the Shocking Number of Rapes Committed by ‘Newcomers’ or You’ll Be Punished, You Bigot

As I’ve written before, the globalists have spent decades indoctrinating Westerners to believe that legitimate criticism of people with darker skin is a sign of racism, if not “proof” of so-called “white supremacy.” That includes speaking out against the epidemic of illegal immigrants, or asylum-seekers — call them what you will — committing unspeakable levels of sexual assault against Western women.

Matthew Lau: Electric vehicle mandates mean misery all round

News of slowing demand for electric vehicles highlights the hazards of the federal government’s Soviet-style mandate that 100 per cent of new light-duty vehicles sold must be electric or plug-in hybrid by 2035 (with interim targets of 20 per cent by 2026 and 60 per cent by 2030 and steep penalties for dealers missing these targets).
