Brookfield’s Deep Ties to Chinese Land, Loans, and Green Deals—And a Real Estate Tycoon With CCP Links—Raise Questions as Carney Takes Over from Trudeau

OTTAWA, Canada — A review of corporate documents reveals that Brookfield—the influential $900 billion Canadian investment fund from which Liberal Prime Minister-to-be Mark Carney stepped away from in order to replace Justin Trudeau as Canada’s leader—maintains over $3 billion in politically sensitive investments with Chinese state-linked real estate and energy companies, along with a substantial offshore banking presence. One of its major real estate ventures, a $750 million entry into high-end Shanghai commercial property in 2013, involved a Hong Kong tycoon affiliated with the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC)—which the CIA labels a central “united front” entity of Beijing.

Carney will ensure Canada remains a CCP branch plant.

The Liberal party is still courting China — and wondering why Trump isn’t happy

There’s such a thing as cutting off your nose to spite your face, and the tariff war between Canada and the US is starting to look like a prime example.

On Monday, Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced a 25 percent surcharge on electricity exports to the US, affecting an estimated 1.5 million households and businesses in New York, Michigan, and Minnesota.

Trump responded with all-caps outrage, raising the March 12 tariff on steel and aluminum imports from Canada from 25 to 50 percent — a move that would be devastating for Ontario’s auto sector. How, the President asked, could Canada stoop so low as to use electricity — a resource that impacts the daily lives of innocent people — as a bargaining chip and a threat?

Chinese Narco Suspect Caught in Private Meeting with Trudeau, Investigated by DEA, Linked to Panama, Caribbean, Mexico – Police Sources

VANCOUVER — Shocking new details are emerging about a major Chinese organized crime suspect who met privately with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, according to a police source who confirmed recent reporting from The Globe and Mail. The individual, Paul King Jin, is allegedly implicated in money laundering operations spanning the Western Hemisphere and has been a target of multiple failed major investigations in British Columbia. These investigations sought to unravel the complex interrelations of underground casinos and real estate investment, fentanyl and methamphetamine trafficking, and financial crimes that allegedly funnel drug proceeds from diaspora community underground banks throughout North America and Latin America, with connections to Chinese and Hong Kong financial institutions.

Why a former CSIS official says the U.S. is positioned for ‘another 9/11’

A former Canadian intelligence official is warning recent cuts by the new U.S. administration to its intelligence agencies could position the country for “another 9/11.”

Dan Stanton, a former executive manager for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), said in an interview with The West Block’s Mercedes Stephenson that cuts are “degrading the efficiency” of the U.S. intelligence community, which could have a much bigger impact than just America’s borders.


The Deep State had such a surplus of staff that 5000 FBI agents were assigned to hunt down the Jan 6 protesters.

How many others across the multiple US intelligence services were hard at work on undermining President Trump?

The borders were wide open under President Dementia’s tenure.

The barbarians are not only inside the gates they occupied the White House the last 4 years.

LA Times Says Blame Orange Man! Housing crisis, economic woes and Trump – How Canada turned against immigrants

 Canada long sold itself as a beacon for immigrants, who were widely viewed as key to economic growth in a vast nation with a small and rapidly aging workforce.

“Study, work and stay” was the slogan of a government campaign to lure international students, part of a broader push that included recruiting temporary workers and resettling refugees. After President Trump banned travel to the U.S. from several Muslim-majority countries in 2017, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that Canada’s doors were open.

“To those fleeing persecution, terror and war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith,” he wrote on the platform now known as X. “Diversity is our strength.”

But in recent months, Canada has changed course.

Don’t harsh my mellow man!

Diane Francis: Trudeau dropped the ball on national security

The Trudeau government has neglected the country’s military, but its immigration policies, and student visa system, represent another serious security lapse.

“As we have all observed, our current government has not been heeding national security advice and has not been vigilant on these issues over the past nine years,” said former Conservative immigration minister Chris Alexander, in an interview with blogger Brad Salzberg.

Terry Glavin: Mélanie Joly can’t wait to make up with China’s dictators

It’s a circle that can’t be easily squared.

On the one hand, there’s the spectacle of Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly happily abasing herself at the feet of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing on Friday after being summoned to China to take instruction on how Canada should behave itself as Xi Jinping persists in flouting international trade rules, accelerates his encirclement of Taiwan and pours ever greater resources into Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

ANALYSIS: Why Foreign Minister Joly Is Visiting China at This Time

Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s visit to China comes at a time when there’s increased scrutiny of the Beijing regime’s meddling in Canada and harassment of the diaspora community, raising questions about the timing of the trip.

An ongoing public commission is currently examining China’s interference in federal elections and other areas of society. And just this month, the RCMP in Quebec took the unusual step of launching a public campaign calling for tips about Beijing’s harassment of Canada’s Chinese diaspora.

The Liberals are anti-Trump weasels and likely fear they will be stiff armed in trade by the Trump presidency, so naturally the LPC seeks out a fellow weasel regime for trade purposes.

The philosophy — and politics — behind the Liberal government’s desire to keep Canada a NATO deadbeat

There was an unscripted moment during a panel debate in Toronto last month that could go a long way toward explaining Canada’s long-term reluctance to publicly and wholeheartedly embrace NATO’s guideline for members’ defence spending.

Appearing on a panel at the Eurasia’s group’s U.S.-Canada Summit, the typically unflappable Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly was asked pointedly how Ottawa could be considered a reliable ally when it appears unable — or unwilling — to meet the western military alliance’s benchmark of spending at least two per cent of GDP on defence.

Big tranny army.

N.L. entombs its Unknown Soldier in solemn ceremony of remembrance

Newfoundland’s Unknown Soldier has been entombed at the National War Memorial following a solemn ceremony decades in the making in downtown St. John’s.

The Unknown Soldier arrived at the stage in front of the National War Memorial and, accompanied by the sound of bagpipes, pallbearers took the casket from the hearse and made their way up the steps of the memorial.

“No one can have greater love than to lay down their life for their country. We gather today to bear witness to the end of a pilgrimage which has brought the earthly remains of this Newfoundlander and Labradorian from Europe to this, his final resting place, at this National War Memorial,” said Canadian Armed Forces chaplain Lt.-Col. Shawn Samson.

Trudeau government rejects warnings of ‘diplomatic isolation’ over defence spending

OTTAWA — The federal government is pushing back against criticism that Canada is becoming a laggard on military spending within the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), with Treasury Board President Anita Anand stating Tuesday that it is “superficial” to focus on the alliance’s spending target without broader context.

The comments came after NATO published new estimates for how much its 32 member countries are spending on defence. The list placed Canada near the bottom — fifth last — in defence spending in proportion to the size of its economy, with an estimated share of 1.37 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) for 2024.

As Dictated To The Star By Katie Telford On Behalf Of Xi Jinping …

In Justin Trudeau’s paranoid Ottawa, insiders say treason allegations are being carelessly tossed around

By Justin Ling Contributor

Eighty years ago, cipher clerk Igor Gouzenko walked out of the Soviet embassy in Ottawa with a briefcase full of documents and a plan to defect. When he finally got an audience with the RCMP, he revealed the most extensive espionage and influence campaign Canada had ever seen.

Gouzenko’s defection spurred a series of investigations, a public inquiry, and a media frenzy. Revelations of how Moscow sought to steal secrets and infiltrate Ottawa gripped the nation and woke Ottawa up to new realities of the Cold War.

The gall.

TAYLOR: The truth at last… CSIS reveals story of Chinese spies who got away with it

Justin Trudeau Xiangguo Qiu Keding Cheng – Everybody say Xi

Spy novelist John Le Carré established his reputation with 1963’s The Spy Who Came in From the Cold. Set at the height of the Cold War, it describes washed-up British spy Alec Leamas’ attempt to infiltrate East German intelligence as a double agent. It’s a grim tale of hidden identities, uncertain alliances and spymasters prepared to sacrifice their own men in pursuit of bigger game. According to Le Carré — who worked for Britain’s MI6 in Germany while writing the book — the modern world of espionage is unpleasant, unglamourous and devoid of loyalty. Unhappy endings are inevitable.
