If past performance indicates future results, then Canadians need to be worried about the Trudeau government handling the Trump tariff threat properly.
Many Canadians will remember that we went through the tariff issue with Trump in his first term and it didn’t go well.
Trudeau is less popular than Trump in Canada so don’t be surprised if Junior goes scorched earth on us.
On Monday, Chrystia Freeland, the finance minister and deputy prime minister, will present her much-delayed fall economic statement just in time for the holidays. And the government has promised that it will address the issue that preoccupied politicians this week: how to respond to President-elect Donald J. Trump’s threat to impose potentially devastating 25 percent tariffs on exports to the United States from Canada and Mexico unless the two nations tighten their borders.
40 Canadian cities, towns and villages are now recognizing December as Christian Heritage Month.
According to an updated list from the Christian Heritage Month initiative, 40 Municipalities, 2 regions and 1 province in Canada have proclaimed December as Christian Heritage Month as Canadian Christians move to reclaim their country’s heritage.
“The Christian Heritage Month Initiative is a dynamic, multi-denominational movement dedicated to celebrating the vibrant cultural, social, and artistic contributions of Canada’s Christian community,” the website explains.
Canada is lurching toward a trade war with the United States unlike any it has endured before. While President-elect Donald Trump threatens tariffs as high as 25% on Canadian goods, Prime Minister Trudeau appears determined to inflame the situation by implying American bigotry is the reason Kamala Harris lost the presidential election. Trudeau has treated the situation seriously enough to travel to meet Trump in person on short notice, but the meeting doesn’t appear to have been productive.
A Canadian man died the day after he gave up on a lengthy hospital wait last week, sparking debate about Canada’s universal healthcare as debate rages in the U.S. over the state of the American for-profit system.
Adam Burgoyne, a 39-year-old resident of Montreal, Quebec, died on December 6 after suffering an aneurysm, according to an online obituary.
Let it never be said that Canada went unnoticed on the world stage during Trudeau’s reign.
Earlier this month an Ontario Liberal fundraiser, leader Bonnie Crombie charted out a plan to become more centrist and create distance between her party and their federal counterparts, who are struggling in the polls.
In a speech prepared for delivery at the Metro Convention Centre, Crombie said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is “wrong” on the carbon tax.
As part of her speech, she made another remark that evening that later caught my ear and is garnering some traction on social media.
She asserted that if the results of the U.S. election teach us anything, it’s that “identity politics is dead and buried.”
It is odd to find myself in agreement with a Star editor but I believe Trudeau has poisoned the well in Canada with mass immigration from incompatible cultures.
Identity politics are sadly here to stay.
A Scouts Canada survey found that most Canadians are concerned that children aged 10 to 21 are too soft and have not been taught appropriate coping skills to navigate their future.
The survey, which included 1,000 Canadians, uncovered that social media channels, screens and lack of development, social/peer pressure, video games and helicopter parenting are the biggest dangers to kids today.
How proud are you to be Canadian?
Canadians’ pride in our country has taken a dramatic dive in recent years, a new poll from the Angus Reid Institute suggests, accompanying a loss of emotional attachment to this country.
Take a look at the data, and why this might be happening.
Not a surprise given the Trudeau Liberals have done all they can to shit on Canada and Canadians.
We don’t hate Trudeau enough.
A new study has found that the number of Canadians donating to charity, measured as a percentage of all tax filers, has declined to the lowest point in 20 years.
The Fraser Institute released this year’s Generosity Index, which measures the proportion of Canadians filing donations to charities in their taxes and the amount that Canadians donate as a portion of their income. The index shows that Canada’s rate of charitable giving is on a continued decline.
A Canadian doctor who was censored for discussing Covid topics during the pandemic is taking her legal battle to the country’s Supreme Court, in a bid to have free speech restrictions imposed on her finally removed.
Dr. Kulvinder Kaur Gill made the decision after the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled to uphold three “cautions” she received for tweets opposing what she considered to be harmful Covid lockdowns, published in August 2020.
These cautions were issued by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) in February 2021. The state’s medical regulator in 2020 warned medical professionals that the opinions they express should be in line with whatever the government or public health institutions decide is the correct information.
That included lockdowns, which Gill openly criticized early on, and continues to believe were ineffective in dealing with the pandemic. Besides her opinion, Gill also offered what her legal counsel says is “ample evidence” to CPSO to support her stance on the ineffectiveness of lockdowns.
Toronto police homicide detectives failed to ask most of the people connected to Barry and Honey Sherman where they were at the time of the billionaire couple’s high-profile murders, documents unsealed by a court reveal. Seeking alibis is a crucial part of a murder investigation — it’s not fiction that it’s one of the first questions a detective on television or in a murder mystery asks of anyone close to the victim: Where were you when they were killed?
But in the days following the discovery of the Sherman bodies, police didn’t ask that question of family members, nor most business associates and others connected to the couple. Investigative sources say the lack of alibis is likely why Toronto homicide detectives have been unable to clear any of the many “persons of interest” suspected of having a hand in the killings.
This stinks so bad.
Michael Higgins: Liberal government hate crime report pretends antisemitism doesn’t exist
“Hate persists when apathy prevails,” reads a new report on hate crimes by a federal government ombudsman who is supposed to be the “voice of the victim.”
Hate also persists if you just ignore it. For example, the report by the victims’ ombudsman specifically does not mention any attacks on Jews, Jewish institutions, or the alarming number of antisemitic protests in this country.
The Office of the Federal Ombudsperson for Victims of Crime reports that there was a 32 per cent increase in 2023 in the number of hate crimes reported to police but ignores the fact that attacks on Jews increased 71 per cent that year.
This report is the product of an Elite which seeks to exonerate itself. Trudeau’s Liberals and the NDP support Islamist immigration, anti-zionist universities, schools and unions. Not to mention the demonetization of White Canadians under racist DEI and affirmative action programs. They kowtow to our enemies for their votes. They are criminals. Stupidly groups such as B’nai Brith embrace DEI as a means of working within the system. The system that assigns White people the role of perpetual villain as the apex oppressor of all humanity. Uh Huh.
Fourteen months after Hamas’s October 7 pogrom in southern Israel, many Quebecers share with many other Canadians a weariness — if not stronger emotions — over anti-Israel protesters blocking streets, bellowing through megaphones, and harassing Jewish businesses and neighbourhoods. Some of us, for various reasons, are particularly put-off by the sight of the protesters kneeling in prayer in the streets en masse.
Donald Trump waited just three weeks after his election victory last month to restart one of his favourite hobbies during his first administration: trolling Justin Trudeau.
On Nov 26, he pledged to impose tariffs of 25 per cent on Canada, alongside Mexico the US’s largest trading partner, unless the country agreed to crack down on border security.
Cue panic in Ottawa. Mr Trudeau was at Mar-a-Lago three days later to discuss the issue with the president-elect and put on a brave face to tell the media the two men had an “excellent conversation”.
Labour Minister Steve MacKinnon made the announcement on Friday morning, citing limited progress to reach a negotiated settlement between both sides. Mr. MacKinnon said a federal mediator appointed by the government informed him that negotiations were at an impasse and Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers were unable to reach an agreement.
