Canada the ‘laggard’ needs to step up at NATO

Imagine how much she’ll bill for a tutor … Quebec Superior Court can hear case calling on removal of Gov. Gen. due to lack of French

Quebec Superior Court has the jurisdiction to hear a case calling on Gov. Gen. Mary Simon to be removed from her post because she cannot speak French, according to a Quebec Superior Court judge.

The Attorney General of Canada had tried to argue that only the federal court could look into such a case, but Judge Catherine Piché rejected the claim in June.

Without genuine political courage, we’ll get more of the same on housing

… So what we’ll get is more of the same demand-side tweaking, like a TFSA that lets first-time homeowners save money for down payments on absurdly priced homes. Governments at all levels will throw nominal amounts of cash around for the odd affordable townhouse or apartment block; these will provide more opportunities for more photo-ops with yet more blunt press conferences.

Meanwhile, the dwindling pool of solvent young people who wish to get on the property ladder without massive infusions of intergenerational wealth will fight for these spots like food rations thrown to the impoverished districts in The Hunger Games. Perhaps we can get the poors to compete for their affordable homes with a reality television show, while we’re at it.

And with all of this happening at a moment of worsening social trust, declining quality of life, an exploding opioid crisis and the growth of slums and tent cities around the country, Mr. Trudeau would like to remind us that these are all provincial responsibilities, actually, as he retreats slowly back into the shrubbery.

Mothers of Marines killed in Kabul blast says Biden administration keeps lying to them

Biden is in charge of tapioca

Mothers of Marines killed in a suicide blast in Kabul during the final chaotic days of the Afghan withdrawal say they have been lied to by the Pentagon and that officers kept some items belonging to their sons.

The mother of Marine Cpl. Hunter Lopez said her sons comrades who were wounded in the attack were even told not to discuss what had happened.

It comes as the Biden administration faced fresh calls on Monday for an explanation of what went wrong in August 2021, when a suicide bomber was able to detonate his deadly payload at Kabul airport, killing 13 Americans and at least 170 Afghans.

Canadians pay a high price when governments ignore common sense

Shack for rent

Due to a dearth of common sense in government policy across the country, but particularly in Ottawa, Canadians are paying a high price in terms of living standards, an increased burden of government and diminished economic prospects for the future. To reverse these trends, governments must make a dramatic U-turn based on common sense and real-world evidence.

Consider, for instance, one of the top issues worrying Canadians right now — housing affordability. Every politician from coast to coast pays lip service to the need to improve housing affordability. And yet some of the actions being taken not only will fail to increase affordability but will worsen it markedly.

Liberals Ignore the Voter Anger against Climate-Change Extremism at Their Peril

Europe’s climate-change policies are at risk of failure because its governments have ignored the costs they impose on voting blocs that urban elites don’t understand or have contempt for.

The perceptive newsletter EuroIntelligence, edited by former Financial Times columnist Wolfgang Münchau, says, “One of the mistakes policy analysts keep on repeating with growing enthusiasm is to view the world” from an urban perspective that ignores the interests of farmers, rural homeowners, and commuters.

How the US weaponised the war on Covid

ON June 17 Sasha Latypova, a retired pharmaceutical industry executive, gave an interview to Jan Jekielek, a senior editor of the Epoch Times, about the military machinery behind the global Covid-19 response. Latypova told him: ‘So right from the start there was a huge deception going on. They’re treating it as war and they’re telling people it’s a health event. They’re covering up military activity with this representation of health event and a response to a health threat.’

Elites attacking agriculture again: Let them eat bugs!

John Kerry – Lunatic

Special presidential envoy for climate John (“Effing”) Kerry recently took time out from flying around the globe in his private jet to warn the world that climate change cannot be conquered without first dramatically reducing the agriculture sector’s emissions. Kerry asserted that agriculture production alone creates roughly 33% of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions and argued that reducing those emissions must be “front and center” in the quest to defeat global warming.
