Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s willingness to cut a trade deal with the U.S. alone came as a betrayal, says Mexico’s lead trade negotiator, adding that it has already proven to be a mistake.
Any desire by Canada to divert blame toward Mexico for U.S. problems with illegal immigration and imported narcotics was “erroneous,” Luis Rosendo Gutiérrez Romano said in an interview this week.
In-house research by the Department of Immigration says 47% of Canadians feel there are too many immigrants coming into Canada, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
The 2024 IRCC Online Tracking Survey, conducted over a two-week period in November 2023 that coincided with street protests and antisemitic crimes following the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel, found the anti-immigration stance as high as 58% in Saskatchewan, 56% in Prince Edward Island, 52% in Ontario and 48% in Alberta.
It was in a high school gymnasium in Missouri that Winston Churchill first warned of an “iron curtain” descending across Europe. If peace were to prevail, he said, the Western alliance must be strong and the newly-founded United Nations must be “a force for action and not merely a frothing of words.”
Sitting in a well-appointed hotel ballroom in Halifax last weekend, chess grandmaster and Russian dissident Garry Kasparov quoted Churchill’s prescient warning. Russia has prosecuted a nearly three-year-long war against its neighbour, he said, and the U.N. has only frothed words. “So,” Kasparov said. “Forget the United Nations.”
It was then that Canada’s foreign minister, Mélanie Joly, interrupted. “We must never forget the United Nations,” she said. I cringed. “We need the United Nations,” Joly insisted.
Avi Benlolo: Canada betrays itself by letting antisemitism thrive
A nation’s moral character is defined by how it treats its minorities. By this measure, Canada’s treatment of its Jewish population today raises grave concerns. Over the past decade, our national identity and the values we once upheld have eroded. Who are we as Canadians? This loss of identity has created a void, exploited by Canada’s detractors to instill values that clash with the country we once knew.
Across government, schools, unions, and the media, a toxic environment has emerged, fuelling hostility against Jewish Canadians. When political leaders fail to stand with Israel, it gives permission for hatred to fester at home. Actions like Mélanie Joly’s visit to Ramallah, legitimizing the Palestinian Authority despite its ties to terrorism, betray Jewish Canadians and their homeland.
The article touches on issues we’ve discussed on this blog but to my view fails by not acknowledging that the “success” of Elite approved anti-White racism is responsible for the vehemence of Canada’s current outbreak of antisemitism. Hating Whites, even white children, is perfectly acceptable in Canada and that “victory” has emboldened the antisemites.
The antisemitism we currently witness is not the result of ordinary Canadians going rogue.
It is our elites who created Canada’s toxic immigration stew.
The elites imported masses from incompatible cultures that have little connection to our western heritage and values, Jews are simply an after thought for these groups.
It was the elites not ordinary citizens who encouraged Muslim settlement, a primary source of Canada’s antisemitism.
The elites teach immigrants that Canadians are merely White skinned settler-oppressors who have no claim to the nation built and defended by our ancestors.
The elites encouraged ethnic and religious balkanization by deliberately abandoning any requirement of immigrants to assimilate into Canadian culture.
The elites deliberately impoverished Canadians simply to ensure a pool of cheap labour and future ethnic vote blocs without care for the economic and cultural wreckage that has ensued.
The elites bludgeoned ordinary Canadians who opposed their divisive immigration policy by slandering us as racists and Islamophobes.
The elites demonize and discriminate against ordinary Canadians by racist affirmative action laws and DEI witch hunts. As a longtime fellow warrior notes; “DEI weakened the white, European, Judeo-Christian majority culture so much that people no longer have an authoritative basis for determining between right and wrong and thousands of years of history were thrown out in favour of “fairness.”
Muslims aside the worst incidents of antisemitism spring from our privileged elite culture, our universities & schools, our political class, media and public service.
This morning a friend and I were musing about how good Canada was when we were children. That Canada was destroyed by our elites.
Few speak up for us, for our stolen birthright. Our voices are ignored and suppressed.
I will end with this: Batya Ungar-Sargon on antisemitism & the demonization of the working class by Jewish leadership: “The American working class is our bulwark against becoming like Canada, becoming like Europe.”
This clip will begin at roughly the 34 minute mark.
I maintain my belief that the “silence” of previously reliable support noted by the Jewish community stems at least in part from the foolish embrace of racist policies like DEI and CRT by Jewish leadership.
One residential construction worker would have to produce nearly three-quarters of a home each year to meet the federal government’s 2031 housing goal, a number of homes-per-worker nearly two-times higher than today’s average, given major challenges around innovation and supply chains.
Last April, the Trudeau government announced its new housing plan, which included the promise of 3.87 million new homes by 2031.
Being Canadian used to be a profound source of pride for us in the Jewish community. Growing up in Toronto meant living in one of the most ethnically and racially integrated cities in the world, a true mosaic of diversity and coexistence, built on the backbone of countless immigrants.
Support for Canada’s record-high immigration levels has plummeted, according to new polling by the Department of Immigration.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the decline in approval comes as Canadians express concerns over the strain on housing, social services, and societal integration, coinciding with heightened tensions following anti-Israel protests and incidents of antisemitic violence.
OTTAWA — The Canadian military’s infrastructure in the Arctic is “limited and deteriorating” and will soon reach a “rust-out” stage unless action is taken to stop it from getting worse, according to a new first-of-its-kind evaluation of the armed forces’ operations in the region.
The report from the Department of National Defence raises concerns about a lack of strategic direction for the military in the Arctic that could hamper future planning. It describes shortages of personnel and resources that require the Canadian Armed Forces to rely heavily on contractors for planes and over-the-snow vehicles for its largest annual exercise in the region. It also highlights how aging northern radar stations leave gaps for detecting potential threats that aren’t set to be addressed until new infrastructure is ready in the early 2030s.
Donald Trump is threatening steep tariffs on all goods entering the U.S. from Canada, Mexico and China.
They’ll be in place until the countries stop the flow of migrants and drugs illegally entering the U.S., Trump said. Mexico and China have threatened to respond in kind.
Businesses, economists and policymakers are trying to figure out how much of this is threat, how much is bluff and how much is real.
Warning CBC ahead.
After Joe Biden’s disastrous TV debate with Donald Trump, when the president’s reelection prospects began unravelling, Vancouver immigration lawyer Randall Cohn started getting calls from Americans.
It was the first “panic period” among people anxious about another Trump administration and interested in moving to Canada.

On a late Saturday afternoon, two days before U.S. president-elect Donald Trump threatened tariffs on Canadian goods over migrants and fentanyl, the RCMP alerted U.S. Border Patrol about a group of people crossing illegally from Quebec into an area near Chateaugay, N.Y.
Border Patrol agents initially spotted the group, but then lost them in the forests along these borderlands. Then, at about 7 p.m. ET, they found a white Acura with New Jersey plates parked on a dirt road near the border. The driver told the agents he was looking for a hotel before driving off.
Canada could make a good start by declaring a moratorium on all immigration, that includes closing the door on benefit shopping “asylum” seekers.
While the homicide rate in the U.S. markedly exceeds Canada’s, a new study by Lakehead University economics professor Livio Di Matteo, done for the Fraser Institute, says both property crime rates and overall violent crime rates are now higher in Canada than in the U.S.

Montana’s Attorney General Austin Knudsen said he has received a request from the RCMP seeking to conduct surveillance at two upcoming gun shows in his state—a request that he strongly opposes.
Knudsen said the Division of Criminal Investigation in the Montana Department of Justice recently received the RCMP request regarding gun shows in Bozeman and Kalispell. Knudsen said he will try to prevent the RCMP from coming.
It is time for an election.
On 20th January, the Government of Canada will go nose-to-nose with the incoming Trump administration over the president-elect’s announcement that both Canada and Mexico will face a 25% tariff on their exports to the US.
The problem is that here in Canada, and especially in Alberta, we don’t trust the leadership of the federal government to do the job.
