Half of all Canadians say there are too many immigrants: poll

High immigration levels have traditionally enjoyed multi-partisan support in Canada, but half of all people now say that there are too many newcomers, according to a new poll.

The survey conducted for the Association for Canadian Studies and the Metropolis Institute found 50 per cent of Canadians agree that there are too many immigrants coming into Canada — a number that has more than doubled since January 2023 but has remained consistent across polls conducted in the past six months.

“Concerns over immigration are primarily about the economy rather than fears about immigrants changing the social fabric of Canada, the poll suggests.”

I find this statement misleading as it is only natural that economic concerns would be ranked first which in no way diminishes the worry people have about Canada being remade by mass immigration from incompatible cultures especially given the extent of Hamas support recently revealed. Not to mention the rising tide of anti-white discrimination endorsed by governments at all levels in Canada.

The organization responsible for conducting this poll seems suspiciously Liberal left & multicultural receiving funding from Heritage Canada and coming complete with a land acknowledgement.

Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry resigns after gangs warned of civil war and ‘genocide’ if he did not step down

Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry has resigned, following an emergency summit called to address gang-led violence currently occurring in the country.

The 74-year-old head of state tendered his resignation Monday, a week after the growing coalition of gangs warned of civil war if he did not step down.

His resignation was swiftly confirmed by Guyana’s president Mohamed Irfaan Ali, the current chair of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).

Father asks court to stop 27-year-old Autistic daughter’s MAID death, review doctors’ sign-off

The father of a 27-year-old woman who has been approved for Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) has asked a Calgary judge to dig into the circumstances that led to two of three doctors approving his daughter’s application.

A publication ban protects the identities of the parties and the medical professionals. CBC News will identify the daughter as M.V. and the father as W.V.

At issue is whether the courts can step in when family members, with no legal standing, have concerns about the MAID approval process.

Were those warehouses at Auschwitz called “Kanada” as a warning?

India’s new citizenship law excludes Muslims. Why asks the Star?

NEW DELHI (AP) — India has implemented a controversial citizenship law that has been widely criticized for excluding Muslims, a minority community whose concerns have heightened under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Hindu nationalist government.

The rules for the law were announced Monday. It establishes a religious test for migrants from every major South Asian faith other than Islam. Critics argue that the law is further evidence that Modi’s government is trying to reshape the country into a Hindu state and marginalize its 200 million Muslims.

The small-town opioid crisis hidden in the big-city shadow

One afternoon in early February, an alarming number of people started dropping on the sidewalks of Belleville, Ont. When the overdoses piled up to 13 in just two hours, police warned residents to stay away from downtown, the way you might cordon off a mass accident scene, so emergency responders could rush in to help.

Belleville hugs the Bay of Quinte, its downtown watched over by a clock tower above City Hall that looks like it’s made of gingerbread. The city of 55,000 is home to a profusion of good manufacturing jobs and hosts a big walleye fishing derby as a Kiwanis fundraiser every spring.

Greta Thunberg removed from blocking Swedish parliament

Swedish police on Tuesday removed Greta Thunberg and other climate activists who were blocking the entrance to Sweden’s parliament for a second day.

Two police officers were said to have lifted Thunberg and dragged her some 20 meters from the door she had been obstructing.

Thunberg and dozens of other environmental campaigners started blocking the main entrances to Sweden’s parliament on Monday in a sit-down protest against the effects of climate change.

I wonder if she blames climate change on Jews?

The same folks that abuse Canada’s ruinous mass immigration policy to your detriment cost taxpayers over $50 billion a year in Corporate welfare

Corporate welfare costing taxpayers over $50 billion a year: Report

Canada’s federal, provincial and municipal governments spent $52 billion on corporate welfare in 2022 — the latest data available —according to a new study by the Fraser Institute released Tuesday.

“These subsidies for businesses — also known as corporate welfare — come with huge costs to government budgets and taxpayers, while doing little if anything to stimulate economic growth,” said Tegan Hill, co-author of “The Cost of Business Subsidies in Canada: Updated Edition,” by the fiscally conservative think tank.

Frankly the Liberal party’s corporate cronies don’t just abuse Canada’s nation destroying mass immigration policy they dictate it.

Gaza medics tell BBC that Israeli troops beat and humiliated them after hospital raid

Palestinian medical staff in Gaza have told the BBC they were blindfolded, detained, forced to strip and repeatedly beaten by Israeli troops after a raid at their hospital last month.

Ahmed Abu Sabha, a doctor at Nasser hospital, described being held for a week in detention, where, he said, muzzled dogs were set upon him and his hand was broken by an Israeli soldier.

His account closely matches those of two other medics who wanted to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals.

Margaret Atwood calls online harms bill ‘Orwellian,’ notes potential for abuse

I can’t remember why I put a rodent in her hair. Perhaps she was going to San Francisco.

Acclaimed author Margaret Atwood has warned that the federal government’s online harms bill is “Orwellian” and its definitions of punishable hate speech are vague and could invite abuse, such as unwarranted complaints under the Canadian Human Rights Act.

Ms. Atwood said she has been the frequent target of “hate speech, online vilification, lies, threats and doxxing” and is “no fan of this kind of online behaviour.” But, in an e-mail exchange with The Globe and Mail, she said she is “also no fan of unsupervised authority acting under vague laws, without any oversight.”

Electric car ranges ‘fall by a third in real-world conditions’

Tests to find out the range of electric cars are flawed and give a misleading indication of battery life, motorists have been warned.

Steve Huntingford, the editor of What Car? magazine, said official laboratory tests have “inadequacies” and need overhauling so that drivers have “realistic information and won’t be left disappointed” after buying an electric vehicle (EV).

In real-world winter conditions, EV ranges have been found to fall by more than a third compared with official test results.

Man says his rights violated by B.C.’s demand he explain source of money to buy house

A B.C. man says his constitutional rights will be violated by the province’s use of a new law to demand he detail the source of $1 million to buy a house on Salt Spring Island.

Skye Lee was named by the province in the first so-called unexplained wealth order action filed in B.C. Supreme Court last year as part of a case to have the home forfeited as proceeds of crime.

Boeing whistleblower John Barnett is found dead just days after testifying against the aviation giant

A former Boeing staffer who once raised concerns about the company’s production standards has been found dead in the US.

John Barnett, 62, was found dead in his truck in a hotel parking lot in South Carolina, cops said Monday – seven years after he retired following a 32-year career.

The ex-quality manager at Boeing’s North Charleston plant died from a ‘self-inflicted’ wound, cops in Charleston said, adding that they were still investigating.

Spate of Nationwide Rallies Warn Canadians About WHO Pandemic Treaty

VANCOUVER—In 11 chilly cities stretching from Ottawa to Whitehorse on March 9, the Stand United freedom movement held rallies focused on warning Canadians about potential fallout from the World Health Organization’s Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness and Response Accord, expected to be voted on in May.

Stand United founder James Davison of Abbotsford, B.C., has organized nationwide rallies for more than two years to bring awareness about what he feels have been abusive government policies and infringements on citizen freedoms. He also hopes to inspire people to respond, saying if Canada agrees to the final draft of the WHO treaty, rights and freedoms are ripe to be taken away by people Canadians didn’t elect.

UK Government Climate Watchdog Tried To “Kill” Negative Net Zero Story

An advisory body that spends its time urging the UK government to do even more to get to carbon net zero tried to “kill” a negative newspaper story with “technical language.”

The story, which follows a Freedom of Information (FoI) request by The Daily Telegraph, has prompted calls for the government’s climate watchdog to be dissolved. Socially conservative commentator and editor of the similarly placed TCW website Kathy Gyngell said it was “high time” the body was “disbanded completely,” while author Steve Milloy described the disclosure as further proof that “honesty is the death of the climate hoax.”

While Jewish advocacy groups celebrate, however, the cemetery where it was located said the stone marker is being repaired rather than destroyed.
