Government report predicts 2040 dystopia: Collapsed economy, hunting for food

OTTAWA — It’s a dystopian future where wealth and property ownership is entirely generational, post-secondary education is no longer a key to success and hungry Canadians resort to poaching wildlife to feed their families.

While this is quickly becoming a reality for more and more Canadians, an internal government report from Policy Horizons Canada warns these horrors could become everyday life in Canada as early as 2040, returning society to one based on inter-generational wealth — with land barons and an aristocracy usually found only in history books.
Entitled “Future Lives: Social mobility in question,” the report paints a picture of what life in Canada could soon be like if current economic policy stays the course.

Bloc calls for crackdown on religious hate speech after Montreal imam prays to ‘slay’ Jews … Liberal vote hardest hit

Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-François Blanchet is calling on Parliament to close what he describes as a dangerous loophole in the Criminal Code that allows hate speech to hide behind religious teachings, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.

Speaking with reporters, Blanchet said it’s time for Canada to remove any legal protections for hate-filled speech, even when it’s presented in a religious context. “If a believer of any religion whatsoever uses religion to support hate, to support radicalization of our youth, I believe this is a crime,” he said. “It has to be punished as a crime in whatever language or whatever religion.”


Canada does not monitor what goes on inside the Muslim cult’s dens.

But every once in a while the cultists make their murderous intent public.

MOBLAND: How global organized crime came to call Canada home

“It was a glorious time.” — Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), Goodfellas

“Glorious” has been a byword for mobsters in Canada over the past two decades.

Lax sentencing, little oversight, and a government that has either been a) hopelessly naive; b) stupid; c) cynically playing for ethnic votes; or d) all of the above.

“Canada has become a hub for organized crime,” Queen’s University professor and globally recognized organized crime expert Antonio Nicaso told the Toronto Sun.

Maher: Environmental Laws Have Helped China Dominate Rare Earth Market

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher said that one reason why China has control over the global rare earth minerals market is because zoning and environmental laws have made it too difficult for America to mine for rare earth minerals itself.

Watch Carney on this file, my bet is that if elected he will help ensure China maintains its dominance by feeding the “environmentalist” efforts to halt rare earths mining in Canada.

Conrad Black: Liberals, not Trump, are the true threat to Canadian sovereignty

With only a little over a week to go before the federal election, and with the debates out of the way, the wheels of the Liberal campaign for a fourth-straight term are finally starting to wobble on their axles. The providential political fantasy land in which the Liberals launched the campaign — the complete fraud that Canada’s continued existence was being threatened by the United States — has receded. U.S. President Donald Trump and his senior colleagues are now processing a queue of 130 countries filing into Washington offering concessions to contribute towards the elimination of the completely unnecessary United States trade deficit of around $1 trillion. Another resounding Trump victory is in the making and Canada is not an inordinately large part of it, although there will be challenging negotiations.

Canada PM Mark Carney ramps up anti-US rhetoric: ‘We must react with crushing force’

Canada’s new Prime Minister Mark Carney has amped up the anti-US rhetoric since swooping in to replace Justin Trudeau at the helm of the Liberal Party, saying this week the Great White North doesn’t need the US.

Carney said he’s looking to diversify trade partnerships with like-minded countries and that Canada stands to gain “far more than Donald Trump can ever take away” — a change in tone from Trudeau, who tried to get Trump to back off on tariffs by calling it “a very dumb thing to do.”

“We must react with a crushing force,” Carney said during a leaders debate in Montreal Wednesday, repeatedly calling the trade war “the most important crisis of our lives.”

Survey finds parties reject call for Canadian nuclear weapons

No major federal party supports developing Canadian nuclear weapons, according to a Ukrainian Canadian Congress survey.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the group had proposed building an independent nuclear deterrent as a safeguard against threats from Russia and future instability in the United States.

“Russia presents a serious and growing threat to Canada’s sovereignty in the Arctic and to our NATO allies in Europe,” the UCC Survey Of Party Leaders stated.

RCMP members who called for resignation of nine cabinet ministers explain motivations

Two RCMP members who openly called for the resignation of nine cabinet ministers in a letter say they are motivated by patriotism, not politics.

Sgt. Peter Merrifield and retired Detective Paul McNamara blew the whistle on what they describe as a catastrophic breakdown in Canada’s national security infrastructure and shared their reflections on the YouTube podcast Northern Perspective.

Trump is demanding universities change policies or face defunding. Would Poilievre do the same?

U.S. President Donald Trump has been threatening to cancel funding for some universities unless they accede to his demands to change ideological policy, similar to a pledge Pierre Poilievre has made for Canadian post-secondary schools.

But so far, the Conservative leader has been sparse on details of exactly what kind of action he might take.

Trump’s demands, which have sparked condemnation about interference in academic freedom, made headlines this week after the White House said it’s freezing more than $2.2 billion US in grants and $60 million in contracts to Harvard University.


Trump is simply refusing to fund whacko academics propagating whacko ideas.

That’s not a threat to academic integrity it’s common sense.

The whackos remain free to be whackos just not on the public dime but of course Carney’s CBC paints this as a conservative attack on academic freedom.

The Silver Lining in Trump’s Tariff Chaos

Behind all the drama of President Donald Trump’s tariffs lies the hope that they serve some clear purpose for American and global trade. But Trump’s signature inscrutability makes it hard to discern what that purpose is—or whether one even exists.

Either way, his actions threaten to unravel the global trading system that has been in place for the past 80 years. That unraveling would bring economic and financial pain—but also potential upside, given that the current system is ultimately unsustainable.

John Robson: Is It 1938 Out There?

Since the Hamas invasion of Israel to massacre Jews on Oct. 7, 2023, there has been an eruption of public Jew-hatred in Canada. The most recent example occurred this past weekend, at the start of Passover, when “pro-Palestinian” demonstrations took place on Parliament Hill during which an officer was spat upon, in Edmonton blocking a bridge, while in Montreal, just ahead of Passover, “demonstrators” vandalized Concordia University’s Azrieli Institute of Israel Studies.

Despite the flimsy excuses of apologists that such displays and protests are “merely” anti-Zionism, they have led numerous commentators to draw explicit, horrified, baffled comparisons to the 1930s that, while legitimate to a point, actually fail to express the far greater seriousness of the situation today.

Canada has the critical minerals Donald Trump wants. So what should we do with them?

An ongoing trade war and U.S. President Donald Trump’s hunger for critical minerals have brought Canada’s rich mineral deposits into the spotlight, with federal and provincial politicians promising to accelerate natural resource projects.

Interest in the country’s critical minerals surged after Trump started musing about annexing Canada, experts say, and grew as the president’s global trade war intensified.


Surprise China! Here’s some good background on why Canada’s rare earth minerals remain in the ground.

‘You don’t control your destiny’: Why Canada’s rare earth deposits are staying in the ground

Somewhere on the outskirts of Montreal, Kiril Mugerman, chief executive of Geomega Resources Inc., aims to build a recycling plant that can produce rare earth oxides — the obscure set of elements that recently emerged as a flash point in the U.S.-China trade war.

Turning to recycling marks an about-face from the original game plan for his company, which spent millions of dollars trying to prove it could mine rare earths from a patch of land in northern Quebec.

Canadian Future Party calls for firing of Islamophobia advisor, scrapping $5.4M budget

The Canadian Future Party is calling for the immediate dismissal of Amira Elghawaby, cabinet’s $191,000-a-year Special Representative on Combating Islamophobia, and the elimination of her office entirely.

Blacklock’s Reporter says in a platform released this week, the party proposed folding her responsibilities into existing government agencies.

‘My home is worth millions – but my own kids are priced out of this city’

Before Donald Trump imposed tariffs on Canada and threatened its sovereignty, the Canadian psyche was consumed with another major issue: housing affordability. With an election on the horizon, voters are wondering if any party has a plan to fix what has become a generational problem.

Willow Yamauchi says she was just a “regular” person when she and her husband bought their family home in Vancouver 25 years ago for a modest sum of C$275,000 – around C$435,000 ($312,000; £236,400) in today’s dollars.

That same property is now worth several million.

In the city in Canada’s pacific northwest, Ms Yamauchi’s story is as common as the rainy weather. The average price of a detached home in Vancouver in 2000 was around C$350,000. Now, it is more than C$2m.
