Canada’s annual inflation rate hit 7.7 per cent for the month of May, according to data released by Statistics Canada on Wednesday, the highest level of growth seen in nearly 40 years. With inflation reaching astronomical levels, some Canadians may be concerned that rising costs will lead to a decline in economic activity and eventually trigger a recession.
While appeared virtually at the World Economic Forum, Biden’s top Covid adviser was asked if the SARS-CoV-2 virus would become endemic in 2022. Fauci said it’s too early to tell and the world appears to be in phase one of a five-phase pandemic, The New York Times reported.
The Liberals and RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki are denying they colluded to release have the RCMP release information about their investigation into the Portapique, Nova Scotia massacre to support the government’s gun control efforts, despite a report from the inquiry into the shooting revealing that Lucki promised Bill Blair and the Prime Minister’s Office that the police would do exactly what.
The bill, which is the product of negotiations between Democrats and Republicans who want to be seen as doing something to prevent mass shootings and other kinds of gun violence, purports to achieve that goal without sacrificing Second Amendment rights. But the bill’s details raise serious questions about its effectiveness and fairness. It pays lip service to civil liberties while canceling the gun rights of adults based on juvenile records, and it subsidizes state laws that suspend those rights without due process.
As the federal government announced long-awaited details of its ban on some single-use plastics Monday — including bags and takeout containers — restaurant and grocery industry executives warn that there just aren’t enough replacements around.
“Trudeau needs to follow Biden’s lead and provide gas tax relief immediately,” said CTF federal director Franco Terrazzano in a statement on Wednesday. “Today, Trudeau could save an average Canadian family about $20 every single time they fuel up their minivan by cutting federal fuel taxes.”
More Quebecers believe they are seen as inferior than at any other time in two decades as debate about Bill 21 and Bill 96 intensifies in Canada.

Stealing an election by fraud is not the only way to rig an outcome. Elections are rigged when systemic violations of election law occur.
The trick, it would appear, is to ignore your own guidelines and never even look for it.
Black Californians could enjoy child support forgiveness, free college, free health care, fewer police, and a long-term “truth and reconciliation commission” should Golden State lawmakers pass the proposals outlined this week by the state’s Reparations Task Force.
Cali won’t be majority-Mexican if this passes.
Here’s the latest video from the CDC that, for the very first time, acknowledges that you might not want to vaccinate your kids.
Toronto isn’t yet Chicago, but our city tried its very best to be over the Father’s Day weekend.
“Six shooting incidents that commenced on Friday — 11 persons struck in these incidents … two of them being homicides,” said Toronto Police Supt. Steve Watts.
He then took the time to provide details about the gun violence. It was quite a list.
A look at the history of revolutionary China evokes parallels with present-day Canadian society. In specific terms, this relates to China’s Cultural Revolution, a socio-political movement spanning from 1966 until founder Chairman Mao Tse Tung’s death in 1976.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson has used the rhetoric of Democrats against them as he spoke about the Stephen Colbert staff invasion of the Capitol last week.
He began his show Monday with the same type of rhetoric used against the January 6 protesters against the Colbert staff who were arrested for being in the Capitol sans permission.
The annual report on our inglorious Canada Infrastructure Bank has been released. General operating costs for the Bank for the 2020-2021 fiscal year, which employs 95 people, were over $48.4 million. To my knowledge, no projects have been completed.

It’s the summer of 2022 — and where are all those Durham indictments you were promised? And where’s that much-discussed Durham report? Do you know that you’ve been played for a fool yet — or are you still watching Fox News? Maybe you need another year to figure out the entire game. Maybe you still believe Bill Barr! Didn’t that legendary windbag tell us that the wheels of justice grind very slow but justice is coming?
Let’s turn back the clock two years — in case you forgot what AG Bagpipes promised the American public.
Over the past two years, Canadians have been stripped of their Charter rights. Unvaccinated Canadians have been locked away from leaving the country and from seeing family members, people were forced to stay home in order to “save lives”, businesses were forced to shut their doors, church gatherings were limited by order of the state and now the government is seeking power to control what you and can and cannot see and say on the internet.
Superb investigative journalism as ever from @sonia_elijah.
Half the mRNA was truncated such that no-one knows what proteins are being coded for.

A large trucker convoy, calling itself the “Canada Day Convoy,” has plans to come to Ottawa on Canada Day for a “peaceful protest.” The group is looking for the government to lift the remaining mandates and to award back-pay to fired Federal workers.
Ontario’s police watchdog has cleared two Vancouver police officers who fired non-lethal rounds at two protesters in Ottawa during the ‘Freedom Convoy’ protests.
The officers were part of the police operation that helped clear the downtown core of the occupation, which lasted for weeks and led the federal government to invoke the Emergencies Act.
Canada may not have seen the last of the mandatory COVID-19 vaccine passports. Proposed restrictions could even be harsher than before, likely to require three to four inoculations in order to travel.
It’s worth noting that the mandate is not set in stone, but the government is preparing for the possibility of introducing the measures in the Fall. Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos made the announcement during a press conference. The vaccine passport mandate for federal employees and other travelers might be over for now, but Duclos made it clear that it’s likely to return this fall.
Pay close attention to this, because it happens every time.
In the wake of government’s DISASTROUS reaction to Covid, they want to…
Give. More. Power. To. The. Government.
Absolute insanity. https://t.co/BZTYbDddU8

That is quite the promise from Washington’s governor.
And rather astounding considering Jay Inslee’s state is the leader in green energy. This is not exactly an endorsement for his policies.
In Virginia, the Fairfax County School Board has decided that suspension is the appropriate punishment for “malicious misgendering” and “malicious deadnaming.” In classrooms as early as the fourth grade, if students use the wrong pronoun or wrong name when referring to a classmate, they will be forced to miss valuable school days by a school board that thinks it has the right to control what students say.
This is not an issue limited to northern Virginia. In Kiel, Wisconsin, a school district opened up a sexual harassment investigation into three eighth graders who “misgendered” a classmate. Those students referred to a classmate as a girl rather than the grammatically incorrect “they/them” pronouns the student demanded to be referred to with. The school district sought to destroy those three students for not speaking the way the district demanded.
The bad news is that the Biden administration’s notorious Disinformation Governance Board, a flagrantly unconstitutional effort to restrict the freedom of speech that was “paused” in May after an avalanche of criticism, is back (although its Orwellian name is still on ice). The good news is that heading up Biden’s handlers’ new foray into authoritarianism is none other than Vice President Kamala Harris. This is good news because Harris has handled the previous jobs she has been given with spectacular ineptitude. If she stays true to form this time, she may end up actually strengthening speech protections, rather than destroying them as she has been tasked to do.
