Canada Is Headed For A Recession, Economists Say

Brace yourself, Canadians. As if soaring inflation, rising interest rates, a pandemic and a war in Ukraine weren’t enough, pretty soon we could be adding a recession to our list of troubles.

Ontario Liberals Pledge Action On Anti-Racism, Including More Diverse Police Hiring

Leader Steven Del Duca says if his party is elected June 2 he would ensure regular police training on de-escalation, anti-racism, cultural sensitivity and mental health, and require police services to disclose diversity statistics.

Control-Obsessed Liberal Government Unwilling To End Mandates Even As World Moves On

“For now, there is no change in our regulation,” said Transport Minister Omar Alghabra in response to events in the US:

“We constantly consult our experts, and whenever the advice that we receive changes because the circumstances change, we will change our regulation. But for now, it is what it is,” he added.

The World Catastrophe Wrought by Covid Lockdowns

The latest index of world food prices was released by the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on April 8th. The FAO’s Food Price Index climbed to 159.3 in March, which in real terms is roughly double its level in 2000, about 80% above its 2019 level, and the highest since records began in 1961.

New Documents Suggest Democrats Sicced The CIA On Their Domestic Enemy, The President

Newly released CIA memoranda suggest the tech gurus behind the Alfa Bank hoax also tracked Donald Trump’s movements to devise another collusion conspiracy theory. While smaller in scale than other aspects of Spygate, the Yotaphone hoax represents an equally serious scandal because it involved both the mining of proprietary information and sensitive data from the Executive Office of the President (EOP) and the apparent surveillance of Trump’s physical movements.

Trans Activists Funded By Big Pharma Push Biased Research Promoting Medical Transitions For Children

Researchers are churning out biased studies promoting medical gender transitions for children, often supported by pharmaceutical companies and activist organizations, and the media frequently promotes the conclusions uncritically.

Municipal politicians continue their war to keep housing prices high

Canada’s municipal politicians have spent a generation blocking the construction of new homes, contributing to a catastrophic housing shortage that has rendered homeownership unaffordable for many Canadians. There has been growing political momentum to disempower municipal politicians so they can stop sabotaging younger Canadians’ futures — but these politicians are now fighting back, eager to protect the powers that they have so irresponsibly abused.

We’re Beyond the Point of No Return on Food Shortages

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we’re in the middle of a perfect storm of events that will lead to even higher prices and extreme food scarcity. The stage was set by Pandemic Panic Theater. The Ukraine-Russia war made things much worse as fertilizer and grain exports from the region have dried up. Add in the bird flu, the Biden regime’s destructive economic policies, supply chain issues that existed long before the Russian invasion, drought across farmland on the west coast, and fewer workers engaged in producing food in America and all of a sudden it seems as if widespread food shortages could come as soon as later this year.

Populism vs. Davos Man during COVID

“We are living in a world designed by Davos Man to direct ever-greater fortune towards Davos Man.

The billionaires have financed politicians who champion the uplifting of the already stratospherically uplifted. They have deployed lobbyists to eviscerate financial regulations, permitting banks to lend and gamble relentlessly, while depending on public largesse to cover their losses. They have defenestrated antitrust authorities, clearing the way for mergers that have enriched investment banks and shareholders, while bestowing oligarchic control upon large companies. They have squashed the power of labor movements, shrinking paychecks and handing the savings to shareholders.”….

A new newsletter! And a $15 billion mystery

After all the dust settled from Chrystia Freeland’s latest federal budget, I still had questions about the Canada Growth Fund.

Described (on Page 60 of the budget document) as a means “to attract substantial private sector investment” to “help meet important national economic policy goals,” the Canada Growth Fund was announced as something that would be “initially capitalized at $15 billion over the next five years.”

Fifteen billion is big. The budget’s entire chapter on housing, for instance, allocates a total of $10.1 billion in new spending over five years. The military gets a total of $9.4 billion in new spending. Health care, $7.1 billion. But the Canada Growth Fund (let’s just call it the Fund) is bigger than all of those. And for each dollar of the $15 billion it will spend, it will “aim to attract at least three dollars of private capital.”

Stephen Foote and Marissa Silvestri allege that Ludlow Public Schools had a “protocol and practice of concealing from parents information related to their children’s gender identity and efforts to affirm a discordant student gender identity” while their children attended Baird Middle School, according to the suit filed last week in a Massachusetts federal district court.

“Canada Is Moving In The Right Direction,” Guilbeault Lauds Lockdowns For Cutting Emissions

Government-imposed lockdowns and travel bans cut Canada’s greenhouse emissions and Environment minister Steven Guilbault couldn’t be happier.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, a Department of Environment report acknowledged the government’s climate targets benefited from public health restrictions.

How International Corporations Control Trudeau’s Woke Revolution

The term “stakeholder capitalism” is the economic buzzword of our time. It’s premise represents a shift away from what is known as shareholder capitalism. Within corporate business models, the former speaks of dedication to social justice; the latter to singular pursuit of shareholder profits.

Beneath the approach is found a world of subterfuge. It is a story of power-politics yet to be understood by general society. Unprecedented in nature– therefore positioned as “progressive”— the goal is transformation in perception of corporate business models.

Where’s The Covid-19 Data? Canada Facing The Most Uncertain Wave Yet As Provinces Scale Back On Reporting, Experts Say

The decision by provincial and territorial governments to scale back COVID-19 data collection and reporting has left Canadians to navigate what some experts are calling the most uncertain wave of the pandemic to date.

Even The Left Is Beginning To Admit It Has Pushed Transgenderism Too Far

Transgender orthodoxy has moved so far past the bounds of sanity that any attempt to question its effects is quickly discouraged and punished. We are expected to shut up and accept that public schools are passing policies to keep students’ gender identity transitions from parents, that medical professionals can file to remove children from their parents’ custody if parents oppose physical and chemical transition efforts, that a young man competed on a women’s swimming team and took home a women’s championship title, and that a man who claimed to identify as a woman was allowed into a women’s prison where he impregnated two of his fellow prisoners .

None of this is normal or even remotely defensible, and everyone, including many on the Left, know it.

Elon Musk Induces Woke Panic

The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has triggered a hysterical outburst among the “woke” progressive Twitterati after he tendered an offer to buy Twitter and turn it into a private company. For years Twitter has been the “woke” Dems most important enforcer of ideological orthodoxy and “cancel culture.” No wonder, then, that Musk’s offer, coming after his frequent criticisms of Twitter’s one-sided censorship of conservatives and defense of free speech, has induced such panic.
