Why are 15 times more Canadians than Californians choosing assisted death?

As a Calgary father’s legal battle to block his autistic daughter’s assisted death ignites debate over whether Canada’s euthanasia regime is expanding beyond what Canadians may be comfortable with, a new study suggests MAID deaths in Canada could continue to expand for another decade, until one in 10 deaths involve a doctor-administered lethal injection.

For Jews in Canada, every day feels like Al-Quds Day

Once upon a time, Jews in Toronto could expect only one public antisemitic hate-fest every year when enemies of Israel would gather downtown to mark the annual Al-Quds Day. How almost strangely quaint that now seems in view of today’s reality.

For Jews in 2024, amid a staggering rise in antisemitism, almost every day is starting to feel like Al-Quds Day, given the increasingly frequent and toxic anti-Israel and anti-Jewish incitement playing out on the streets and university campuses of Canada’s major cities.

It will not get better.

On Chinese interference, Trudeau sounds like someone with something to hide

The plausible explanation is that the prime minister does not want a light shone on his party’s mutually beneficial association with China

The crux of the foreign interference inquiry is to discover whether Justin Trudeau danced with the devil in the pale moonlight.

In other words, did the prime minister put partisan interest ahead of the national interest by turning a blind eye — or worse, encouraging — China’s meddling in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections to benefit the Liberal party’s electoral fortunes.

‘I’m not paying it’: Family furious over $400/day hospital fine for not moving to LTC

A few weeks ago, Michele Campeau faced what seemed like an impossible decision: move her mom from a hospital bed to a long-term care home the family hated or pay $400 a day to remain at the health-care facility.

Campeau chose neither – the family has been racking up a monster bill since March 11 that remains unpaid while her mother has stayed on at a Windsor, Ont., hospital.

Campeau’s mother is among those caught up in a law that allows hospitals to place discharged patients into long-term care homes not of their choosing in order to free up beds. Should patients refuse the move, they face a $400 per day charge to remain at the hospital.

We could make life a lot better for seniors but our politicians would rather subsidize graft, waste & perversion.

Trudeau government paying $84M to firm employing Katie Telford’s husband to manage rent assistance aid program

OTTAWA – The Trudeau government is paying up to $84 million to a company that employs Chief of Staff Katie Telford’s husband as a senior executive to administer its COVID-19 emergency commercial rent assistance program for small businesses.

Due to the ties between Telford and her husband, Robert Silver, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) assures that their chief of staff has recused herself from any decisions that may involve MCAP, Silver’s employer.

Sleaze thrives when Liberals are power.

As AUKUS looks to collaborate with other allies, why is Canada not mentioned?

Canada has once again found itself on the outside looking in after some of its closest allies — the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia — announced the next phase of their new AUKUS security pact this week.

AUKUS, formed by the three countries in 2021, is part of efforts to push back against China’s growing power in the Indo-Pacific region by focusing on military modernization through new technologies. The trio announced Monday it will begin consultations this year on collaborating with “prospective partners” around the world as part of its second phase, specifically mentioning Japan as an ally it is considering working with.

I suspect our allies no longer trust Canada, perhaps Justin should ask China to put in a good word for us.

Canadians Pay Higher Income Tax Than Workers in Most Other OECD Countries: Report

Canadians at all levels of income pay more tax than residents in most other OECD countries around the world, according to a new report.

The study, “Canada’s Rising Personal Tax Rates and Falling Tax Competitiveness,” published by the Fraser Institute, said personal income tax rate increases at both the federal and provincial levels have made Canada less competitive compared with other countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

HWDSB trustee says she’s banned from private meetings because of Pro Hamas social media post

A Hamilton public school board trustee says she’s banned from participating in private board and committee meetings after refusing to delete a November social media post about being under investigation for other social media posts in support of Palestinians.

Sabreina Dahab, Ward 2 trustee for the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB), posted to X on Monday morning with the update, saying she is appealing her ban.


This is the crap she’s currently posting, outright false accusations of war crimes.

It was a great idea to invite Satan to settle here.

PM didn’t accept CSIS warnings about MP Dong and possible Chinese interference in Don Valley North riding in 2019

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accepted the advice of his campaign manager in the 2019 election that no action should be taken against Liberal Han Dong despite concerns raised by Canada’s spy service about possible China-directed interference activities, the public inquiry into foreign meddling heard Tuesday.

The Foreign Interference Commission has heard testimony that CSIS provided a classified briefing in Sept. 28, 2019, to Liberal Party officials, who received national-security clearances, about alleged irregularities in the Don Valley North nomination that Mr. Dong won.

No surprise Trudeau works for China.

Gen. Rick Hillier: Ideology masking as leadership killed the Canadian dream

“This is not Canada,” is a phrase we hear far too often. It seems to come from every politician, from all levels. It’s exclaimed after every illegal demonstration, hate crime, blocked street, gang shooting, home invasion, car theft and emergency room horror story.

Those exclamations ring hollow as food bank lines stretch longer and as hopeless thousand-yard stares of good men and women grow more prevalent. While dreams of home ownership fade, shantytowns grow and our confidence in the future plummets. We hear the official inflation rate, but it bears little resemblance to our real-life experience. “This is not Canada” grates, harshly, especially when it comes from those who seem so out of touch with reality.

HARRIS: Conservative leaders must stop promoting climate scare

At the Canada Strong and Free Networking Conference this week in Ottawa, grassroots conservatives must insist that party leaders stop supporting the climate scare. It is not enough to “axe the tax” or “spike the hike,” as Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) Leader Pierre Poilievre, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and other provincial leaders demand. The “carbon tax” is merely a symptom of the climate change disease threatening Canada’s prosperity and energy security.

Poilievre wants Trudeau to have carbon price meeting on TV with premiers

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to have a “publicly televised” meeting with the premiers to talk about the carbon price increase.

“I think he’s too scared,” Poilievre said Monday morning when asked if he thinks Trudeau would meet with the premiers on TV.

Prime Minister’s Office received 34 briefings on foreign interference since 2018, CSIS says

A top-secret Canadian Security Intelligence Service briefing prepared for the Prime Minister’s Office in February last year said Beijing had “clandestinely and deceptively interfered in both the 2019 and 2021 general elections.”

The classified document, dated Feb. 21, 2023, was drafted in response to media stories, including one in The Globe and Mail, that outlined a sophisticated campaign by China and its proxies to interfere in the 2021 election. The document was made public on Monday, when it was tabled at the Commission of Inquiry into Foreign Interference.


I can’t help but notice that few bother to comment on posts about the Liberal Party’s corrupt relationship with the PRC.

Personally I am resigned to the fact that nothing will change regardless of the commission’s findings which I suspect is the reason for the lack of interest from readers.

Our political class looks after their own.

No one will be charged, no one will go to jail and no one will lose their job.

Leaving Canada is becoming a serious consideration.

Chairman Chow Stands With Hamas Supporters

Mayor Olivia Chow has no plans to condemn some city councillors for supporting Torontonians’ right to protest following a pro-Palestinian demonstration that included clashes with police officers.

”Whether they are councillors, a deputy mayor or ordinary citizens, they have the right, under the Charter of Freedoms, to assemble, to have their voice heard,” Chow told reporters Monday, responding to a question about the police officers’ union demand that she criticizes the councillors’ actions.
