I thought federal Housing Minister Ahmed Hussen’s “just trust the mayors” and “housing isn’t political” screed was a shoe-in for worst housing take of the summer, but it only took one week for NDP leader Jagmeet Singh to outdo even him.

TERRAZZANO: Taxpayers can’t afford Trudeau’s government globe trotters
Politicians and bureaucrats are going out of their way to stay in the fanciest hotels, take the sweetest rides, feast on the most exquisite cuisine and spend the highest amount of money possible.
Unsold electric vehicles are piling up – people like the idea but are not buying them
Some auto-industry observers are calling it a “field of dreams” moment, but if electric-vehicle makers can’t figure out how to bridge the gap between consumers’ curiosity in the products and their willingness to buy them, it may become a nightmare on Main Street.
The supply of unsold EVs on U.S. dealer lots has swelled 350 per cent so far this year, to more than 92,000 units in June. That’s about three months’ worth of inventory and nearly twice the industry average, according to a new report from Cox Automotive, the people behind the Kelley Blue Book auto-pricing guides.
Pierre Poilievre makeover can’t hide the meanness says Heather Mallick
Pierre Poilievre wants to look like a hot, strapping man of the people. He won’t. It can’t be done. But the advisers of the federal Conservative Party leader demanded a makeover and events unfolded.
They got rid of his glasses — whether due to contacts or surgery we don’t know — and gave him T-shirts to wear under unstructured (stretchy, unlined) blazers, jeans, and summertime Tom Cruise-style aviators.
Now he looks like a man who forgot his glasses and had to assemble a vacation wardrobe after the airline lost his luggage.
Not a good look …
A video is being shared widely on social media that depicts a protester in Belleville yelling "you're a pathetic Jew" at least twice to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Probably Sophie. Just Kidding.
It must be asked. Is it “Pathetic Jew” or “Pathetic Puke.”
I think the latter frankly.
German Climate Extremists Escape Criminal Organisation Classification
‘Letzte Generation’—or ‘the Last Generation’—Germany’s leading extremist climate alarmist group, will not be classified as a criminal organisation despite having engaged in as many as 580 criminal offences since 2022.
On Wednesday, July 19th, the Berlin Senate Justice Department announced the result of its reviews into the activity of the group and stated that it did not believe it was needed to classify Last Generation as a criminal organisation, according to a report in Die Welt.
Justin Trudeau is Canada’s least-liked prime minister in 55 years
Justin Trudeau has been voted Canada’s worst prime minister in the past 55 years by three out of 10 respondents in a new public opinion survey from Research Co.
Published Friday, the opinion survey also found that Trudeau’s father Pierre was preferred as Canada’s best leader, attracting 20 per cent of the vote.
The morally broken David Frum thinks there should be no penalty for murdering a 30-week-old fetus and burning the body.Screaming man chases and attacks TTC passenger for asking to turn down music
A shocking video emerged on social media showing an altercation that left a TTC passenger shaken and in tears, all because they asked another rider to turn down their music.
Sam Bankman-Fried funding defense with $10M of stolen Alameda money gifted to his father: lawsuit
Sam Bankman-Fried paid his legal defense team $10 million using funds that were stolen from FTX’s sister hedge fund, Alameda Research — and which had been gifted to the 31-year-old crypto crook’s father, a new lawsuit alleges.
The complaint — filed in Delaware bankruptcy court on Thursday — divulged that a so-called “Bankman Gift Transfer” for $10 million was made from Bankman-Fried’s FTX account “to his father’s personal account on the FTX US exchange.”
“On information and belief, Bankman-Fried’s father has been using this ‘gift’ to finance Bankman-Fried’s criminal defense,” the documents stated.
‘No choice’ but to retaliate against Canadian digital tax, U.S. ambassador says
OTTAWA — The United States could target digital trade if it decides on retaliatory measures against a proposed Canadian digital services tax, U.S. ambassador to Canada David Cohen said.
The Liberal government confirmed this week it plans to go ahead with the tax targeting Big Tech in 2024, despite 138 other countries and jurisdictions agreeing last week to delay similar measures.
Tamara Lich’s case not a trial of ’Freedom Convoy,’ her lawyer says
OTTAWA — The lawyer for “Freedom Convoy” organizer Tamara Lich warned the court Tuesday that the upcoming trial on her criminal charges should not put the entire convoy on trial.
Lich was a figurehead of the demonstrations that gridlocked downtown Ottawa for three weeks in early 2022 in protest against COVID-19 public health restrictions and the federal Liberal government.
“Green Energy” Will Be Powered by Taliban Lithium
One of the sales pitches for electric cars and assorted green energy projects was that we’d at least be able to unplug from Middle Eastern oil. But instead, we’ve become dependent on the Saudis anyway (the Saudis own 5% of Tesla) and, more crucially on China which sells us the junk solar panels and the rare earth metals (obtained through incredibly dirty mining processes that have devastated lakes and poisoned entire villages) to power the ‘clean’ revolution of ‘green energy’.
Can Spain defuse its depopulation bomb?
Over the past 40 years, no party has dominated the Spanish political landscape like the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party, or PSOE, now headed by Pedro Sánchez. Yet frustration over its handling of key issues — from the economy to immigration to regional separatist movements — has provided an opening for the centre-right People’s Party (PP) to win a plurality in national elections this Sunday. Were this to happen, it would likely enter into a governing coalition with the hard-Right Vox party.
