Canada dithers over participation in ‘top secret’ data cloud as allies push ahead with intelligence-sharing plans

Canada ponders ‘top secret’ data cloud as allies push ahead with intelligence-sharing plans

Australia is joining the United States and the United Kingdom in developing top-secret cloud networks to exchange highly classified defence, national security and intelligence data with each other — a concept Canada has just begun to think about.

Experts say that, unless the gap is closed quickly, Canada’s lack of such digital infrastructure will have a profound impact on new military hardware the federal government has committed to purchasing, such as F-35 stealth fighters, MQ-9 Reaper drones and long-range P-8 surveillance planes.

I don’t think Canada is dithering so much as not being invited to participate.

I suspect we are considered both a piker and a genuine security risk.

Vivian Bercovici: On Oct. 7, terrorists invaded Israel — and their sympathizers took over Canadian streets

Every time I drive on Road 232, a main artery through southern Israel, I see phantoms.

Since moving to a kibbutz in southern Israel in July, Road 232 has become my lifeline, as it is for all residents of a region that is dotted with small towns and villages. This beautiful, pastoral area is where much of Israel’s fresh produce is grown.

And who are the guilty parties.

Canada’s decline is due to the machinations of a corrupt elite.

They are the people who encouraged mass Islamist immigration and surrendered our institutions to the radical liberal-left.

They called us racists and Islamophobes while flooding the nation with incompatible cultures which they in turn championed as equal or  better to our own. 

The made us poor by depressing wages and profiting from the shortages created by their mass immigration scheme.

They made laws to silence dissent and co-opted the news media to further their agenda.

They hate us. Once you accept that it all makes sense.

GIESBRECHT: Staggering number of churches burned, more than thought

Blacklocks reports that since 2010, when the Truth and Reconciliation (TRC) commissioners began making the claim in interviews and in interim reports that thousands of indigenous children had died at residential schools under suspicious circumstances, more than 400 Christian churches have burned in Canada.

Those allegations were false, and based on a conspiracy theory.

Are Canada’s Jews at a tipping point? Most are anxious, many are fearful, and some have moved away

The soaring brick façade and sparce windows of Congregation Machzikei Hadas are easily mistaken for a school or a prison, its faddish 1970s architecture masking the Ottawa synagogue’s century-old roots. Inside, Rabbi Idan Scher tends a congregation of about 350 Jewish families cycling through their religious calendar and life’s unstoppable milestones.

Michael Higgins: Liberals have turned Canada into a country that rewards terrorism

As the anniversary of October 7 approaches, Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have decided to escalate their anti-Israel messaging while also adopting the ludicrous position of overtly supporting terrorists.

It’s a strange way for Canada to treat an ally — but not surprising considering the facile and simplistic response of the Liberals to events in the Middle East.

You’re kidding, you expected them to integrate? Windsor mosque honours slain Hezbollah leader, sparking online outrage

A well-attended gathering at a Windsor mosque on Sunday to celebrate the slain leader of Hezbollah — listed by Canada and other countries as a terrorist group — has sparked online outrage.

“We don’t believe Hassan Nasrallah is a terrorist,” said Hussein Dabaja, a co-organizer of the Windsor gathering and a Lebanese-born Hezbollah supporter.

Canada to US Immigration Hits Ten-Year High

Recent data from the US Census Bureau has revealed that more than 126,340 people emigrated from Canada to the US in 2022 – a 70 percent increase from 2012 in a move many have attributed to the country’s increasingly high cost of living. However, as a nation that granted permanent residency to 2.5 million people in just eight years and thousands more expected to settle south of the border in the coming years, it’s an alarming trend that has the potential to undermine the country’s robust immigration policy.

Canada’s Racist Society To Blame For Black’s Shooting One Another Says Expert

To prevent homicide in Toronto, we must start with addressing grief in Black communities

Homicide grief among Black communities in Canada has reached pandemic proportions — and it requires an urgent, co-ordinated public health response.

… Make no mistake, though. This isn’t a disease of Black communities. It’s a societal problem that will continue to worsen if not addressed. As with the inequitable spread of COVID-19, racism and inequalities embedded in our social structures and systems underlie homicide’s disproportionate pervasiveness.

Quebec separatist leader holds Trudeau to ransom: ‘We saw an opportunity’

The leader of the Quebec independence party propping up the government of Justin Trudeau has insisted that the political lifeline depends on the quick passage of two pieces of legislation, and warned Canada’s embattled prime minister that he remains “very vulnerable”.

The Bloc Québécois leader, Yves-François Blanchet, told the Guardian the Liberals must act swiftly to enshrine protections for dairy farmers and boost payments to seniors to stave off a fatal vote of non-confidence. He warned that unless both pieces of legislation are passed into law by 29 October, his party would begin discussions with other parties to trigger a federal election.

Delusional Trudeau dishes on where he went wrong, what he did right and why he’s the one to beat Pierre Poilievre

Justin Trudeau dishes with Liberal MP on where he went wrong, what he did right and why he’s the one to beat Pierre Poilievre

OTTAWA—Under siege in the polls but fighting for a shot at a fourth term, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took to a backbench MP’s podcast to riff on why he thinks he deserves it.

In a nearly hour-long interview recorded Friday and published Tuesday, Trudeau gave more revealing answers to fellow political traveller Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith than he has to any journalist in months.

The prime minister conceded a few mistakes. But only a few. And he expressed little regret.

I think an intervention may be called for.

Canada’s many many Nazis as likely as Danishes to attack Jewish community over Gaza conflict anniversary intelligence report says

Extremist attack on Jewish community ‘realistic possibility,’ intelligence report says

… The government’s Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre wrote in a June 24 memo that it was monitoring “the rising tide of antisemitism and violent rhetoric associated with the conflict in Gaza with concern.”

“A lone actor attack—inspired by a range of ideological or religious extremism such as neo-Nazism or DAESH [ISIS] (Ed. Danishes)—targeting Jewish interests in Canada is a realistic possibility,” said a July 10 memo.

… The de-classified materials on the Canadian national security implications of the Hamas-Israel conflict were disclosed to Global News under the Access to Information Act.

Danishes are bad, evil and mean but Canada’s Nazis are a far greater risk.

Will the Bloc pull the plug on Trudeau if it’s pension and agriculture cartel demands aren’t met?

There’s a battle brewing over generational fairness as Bloc Québécois demands a pension hike

A debate over how Ottawa chooses to divide its spending among age cohorts is ramping up as the Bloc Québécois pushes the Liberal minority government to boost Old Age Security (OAS) payments.

Bloc Leader Yves-François Blanchet put forward a motion Tuesday demanding that the government move forward with legislation that would hike OAS payouts for seniors between the ages of 65 and 74.

The Bloc has said it will only continue supporting the Liberal government on future non-confidence votes if it gets an OAS hike before the end of this month. It also wants stronger trade protections for supply-managed farm sectors.

Blanchet has Junior by the short ones.

Geoff Russ: Only clowns label Canadians ‘settlers’

The division of this country into modernized factions of cowboys and Indians is fully embraced by public sector unions. This practice, however, does not resonate with the average Canadian — not by a long shot, according to the results of a Leger poll released last Friday.

Just 23 per cent of Canadians identify themselves as a “settler” or a “colonist.” Roughly half — 47 per cent — reject the label, while 30 per cent have no opinion or do not care.
