CBC says … Chinese Canadians worry foreign interference probe could stigmatize politicians, candidates
Chinese Canadians in public office and academia are warning the recent claims China interfered in Canadian politics could stigmatize an entire community and dissuade them from running for public office or taking on public-facing roles.
“There is a lot of fear,” said Keren Tang, a city councillor in Edmonton.
Tang and others in the Chinese community are worried racism resulting from the federal investigations into the alleged Chinese government interference could roll back years of progress of getting more diverse voices in all levels of government.
Just the CBC running interference for Trudeau and his ChiCom allies.
General Mark Milley Admits US Oversight Of Weapons Going To Ukraine Is ‘Not As Rigorous As You Might Think’
The United States has a limited ability to ensure the billions in weapons sent to Ukraine stays out of the wrong hands, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley told Congress on Tuesday.
The Pentagon has previously acknowledged the difficulty of guaranteeing the final destination of more than $30 billion in weapons aid delivered so far to Ukraine. An ability to maintain only a small contingent of non-combat personnel dedicated to oversight at the embassy in Kyiv means it relies mostly on Ukrainian soldiers to inspect aid at destinations closer to the front lines and upload photos of weapons to a secure software for confirmation
The whiff of Katie Telford: ‘This is very bad for them’ – months of leaks rattle Canada’s low-profile spy agency
Most Canadians have no idea where the country’s spy agency is located, nor do they know much about its daily operations. This is not because the Canadian Security Intelligence Service operates in a particularly clandestine fashion, it’s because most Canadians don’t care.
The CSIS, a civilian-run organisation based in a triangular structure of concrete and glass on the outskirts of Ottawa, lacks the intrigue of Britain’s MI5 and the notoriety of America’s Central Intelligence Agency.
“I look nothing like Daniel Craig, and I did not arrive here in an Aston Martin. I’m just as disappointed as you are – on both fronts,” its director, David Vigneault, said in a speech in 2018, poking fun at the service’s largely uncharismatic reputation. “Most of you remember the movie Fight Club. And you will know that the first rule of Fight Club is ‘don’t talk about Fight Club’. Well, the first rule of CSIS has always been ‘don’t talk’. Period.”
During the SNC Lavalin Scandal Katie Telford is said to have told Jody Wilson-Raybould’s chief of staff that she could arrange for her connections to ‘Write op-eds saying that what she is doing is proper.’ This piece fits the bill for narrative control.
I don’t know of anyone who thinks ill of CSIS for these leaks, other than the CCP compromised Liberal Party. In fact most of us are grateful for having this criminal chicanery exposed.
Elon Musk among experts urging a halt to AI training
Key figures in artificial intelligence want training of powerful AI systems to be suspended amid fears of a threat to humanity.
They have signed an open letter warning of potential risks, and say the race to develop AI systems is out of control.
Twitter chief Elon Musk is among those who want training of AIs above a certain capacity to be halted for at least six months.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and some researchers at DeepMind also signed.
If the government wanted to strangle economic growth, this is the budget it would produce
The most arresting chart in last year’s budget was the one showing projected economic growth rates in the member countries of the OECD over the next 40 years. In last place: Canada.
At last, we all thought: the Trudeau government had belatedly recognized Canada has a growth problem. Having fixated almost exclusively throughout its first seven years on redistributing income, perhaps it had now been persuaded of the importance of making some. True, Budget 2022 offered little in the way of new ideas to that end, but give it time. Rome wasn’t rethought in a day.
Trudeau and Freeland up the ante on a clean economy
Justin Trudeau’s basic argument is that Canada and the world face both historic challenges and unique opportunities — and the Liberals are better suited than the Conservatives to overcoming those challenges and seizing those opportunities.
Mind you, the two parties don’t entirely agree on which issues are most deserving of attention right now. But there is no bigger challenge than climate change and the transition to a low-carbon future it requires. And Tuesday’s federal budget — described by the Canadian Climate Institute as “the most consequential budget in recent history for accelerating clean growth in Canada” — could be a pivotal piece of the Liberal response.
‘Hate has consequences’: Trans support group blames GOP ‘anti-trans legislation’ for Tennessee school shooting
A radical transgender activist group has claimed that the Nashville school shooter was driven to murder six people by an ‘avalanche’ of anti-trans policies and sentiment, adding: ‘Hate has consequences’.
The Trans Resistance Network, a fringe group whose tweets are protected except for their 3,300 followers, issued a statement on Tuesday in the wake of the shooting.
Audrey Hale, a 28-year-old former student at Covenant School, wrote a ‘manifesto’ before attacking the private Christian academy on Monday morning. She was killed by police within 15 minutes.
Press secretary for Arizona Dem Governor Katie Hobbs is slammed for saying she wants to SHOOT transphobes, hours after trans killer massacred three children, two teachers and custodian at Nashville school
Four Out of Five Canadians Against Upcoming MP Pay Raise: Poll
On April 1, Canadian MPs and the prime minister will get a raise, and a new poll shows 80 percent of Canadians are opposed to it.
A backbench MP now receives an annual salary of $189,500, according to the Leger poll commissioned by the Canadian Taxpayer Federation (CTF). Such an MP is due to receive a raise of $5,100 annually, the fourth raise since the onset of the pandemic. The three previous MP raises totalled $10,600.
AOC, LeBron James, Ben Shapiro get VIP treatment from Twitter: report
Twitter has a list of some three dozen “VIP users” that includes Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), basketball superstar LeBron James and Daily Wire founder Ben Shapiro, according to a report.
Elon Musk, the site’s new owner, who grew unhappy that his tweets were generating less engagement, ordered his software engineers to carve out a special category of “power users” whose tweets consistently remain visible, according to the Platformer tech news site (pay wall).
Twitter isn’t shittier just not much better.
Federal budget 2023: Canada to create foreign-interference office to combat meddling from China, Russia
The federal government is establishing an office to counter foreign interference and giving nearly $50-million to the RCMP to combat harassment of Canadians by powers such as China and Russia.
The government said in the 2023 budget that it will spend more than $16-million to create a National Counter-Foreign Interference Office in the Department of Public Safety, citing the threat of espionage.
The Great Food Reset has begun
We all lose from the global war on farmers
France is in flames. Israel is erupting. America is facing a second January 6. In the Netherlands, however, the political establishment is reeling from an entirely different type of protest — one that, perhaps more than any other raging today, threatens to destabilise the global order. The victory of the Farmer-Citizen Movement (BBB) in the recent provincial elections represents an extraordinary result for an anti-establishment party that was formed just over three years ago. But then again, these are not ordinary times.
Nearly 30% of Canada’s Leopard 2 Tank Fleet Will Be Out of Commission Between 2023 and 2026: Federal Records
Nearly 30 percent of the Canadian Army’s fleet of Leopard 2 main battle tanks, which number 74 in total, will be out of commission due to required maintenance for about three years starting this May, according to newly released federal records.
All 20 of the Canadian Army’s Leopard 2A6M fleet are set to undergo a “planned repair, overhaul, and turret conversion” in New Brunswick that the Department of National Defence (DND) says will not be completed until 2026, according to an Inquiry of Ministry tabled by cabinet in the House of Commons on March 20.
3 Years Of Required Maintenance? What if this was the middle of a war?
JK Rowling says her family have received ‘threats’ because of her outspoken views on gender issues
JK Rowling has said her stance on women’s rights has led people who disagree with her to threaten her family.
The Harry Potter author, who has been outspoken in her views on gender and single-sex spaces, said she doesn’t regret vocalising her position despite the abuse she’s received.
However, she added she was disappointed at the lack of support from the literary world including publishers who ‘should stand for the plurality of views’.
She’s wealthy, with all the crazy Trannies out there security will not be an issue.
Calgary’s authoritarian crackdown on free speech
Waris Dirie is a Somali-born author, model, actress and activist who was forced to undergo female genital mutilation (FGM) at age five and fled her home country at age 13 to escape an arranged marriage.
She is a powerful advocate against FGM, a religious-cultural practice that involves the partial or total removal of the external female genitals for non-medical reasons. After fleeing Somalia, Dirie went on to become a supermodel. Her autobiography, “Desert Flower,” is a remarkable story of courage that was made into a film in 2009.
Mexico’s President Attacks U.S. on Human Rights
Mexican President Lopez Obrador has responded to a U.S. State Department report on the Central American country’s Human Rights record.
The U.S. report mentions corruption and the violation of people’s rights by members of the security forces, as well as the failure on the part of Mexico’s judiciary to prosecute certain crimes.
“What if we evaluate their [the USA’s] record on human rights?” asked the President during a speech delivered to members of the press, referring to the high-profile case of Julian Assange by way of example: “Why don’t you free Assange? If you’re talking about journalism and freedom, why do you keep Assange in prison?”
