Pierre Poilievre’s solution for a ‘broken’ Canada is to break more things — including the CBC

Pierre Poilievre appears to have divided this country into two nations. There’s the Canada that Justin Trudeau broke, and then there is the Canada that the Conservative leader himself wants to break.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation definitely falls into the want-to-break category. As Trudeau put it on Monday, Poilievre despises the CBC so much that he’s willing to join forces with Twitter’s mercurial new owner, Elon Musk.

“The fact that he has to run to American billionaires for support to attack Canadians says a lot about Mr. Poilievre and his values,” Trudeau said at a morning press conference.

Spoken by a tone deaf idiot whose circle line their pockets courtesy Communist China’s “Billionaires.”

Military cemeteries need more funding to keep them from falling into disrepair

An internal report by Veterans Affairs Canada is raising red flags over the country’s military graves and cemeteries, warning that more permanent funding is needed to keep them from falling into disrepair.

The report is the result of an internal audit following up on a similar review six years ago. At that time, nearly 45,000 out of the estimated 207,000 graves of Canada’s veterans were in a state of disrepair because of a lack of resources.

Meet the Chinese billionaire who donated to the Trudeau Foundation

Useful Idiot Justin Trudeau with Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin, a wealthy Chinese businessman, finds himself in the middle of a controversial 2016 donation to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation that The Globe and Mail has reported was linked to the Chinese government, allegedly part of Beijing’s meddling in Canadian democratic processes.

A Chinese citizen with a home in Quebec, Mr. Zhang is president of the China Cultural Industry Association, a government-backed body that promotes Chinese soft power around the world. He is also a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, an advisory body, and, according to a now-deleted profile of him on the industry association website, a member of the ruling Communist Party.

Grappling with foreign interference allegations at home, MPs look to Taiwan for ideas

As a multi-party delegation of Canadian politicians returns home from Taiwan, MPs say Canada can learn lessons from the island when it comes to dealing with the threat of foreign interference from China.

Speaking to CBC’s The House from Taiwan as they prepared to depart, Conservative foreign affairs critic Michael Chong and Liberal MP John McKay — who chairs the parliamentary committee on national defence — said they had been impressed by the Taiwanese approach to resisting disinformation campaigns.

“I think there’s a lot of lessons that Canada can learn about foreign interference and how society and government should respond to harden Canadian society against this meddling that we’re experiencing from Beijing,” Chong told host Catherine Cullen.

Report Finds ‘Growing Mismatch’ Between Demand and Supply in Type of Housing in Canada

The report, published by the Fraser Institute on April 13, found that real estate markets Canada-wide experienced significant price increases since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, with home prices being 28 percent higher in February 2023 than in March 2020.

What is the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation and what does it do?

The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation has been mired in a political controversy that pushed the organization’s president and board to resign last week.

At the centre of the controversy is a 2016 donation from two donors with links to the Chinese government. The donors pledged $200,000 to the foundation at the time.

While the donation spurred an initial controversy in 2016, interest in the story revived in the wake of recent media reports stating Beijing interfered in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections. The foundation said it would reimburse the funds but apparently ran into administrative roadblocks. (Radio-Canada has confirmed the donation has since been returned.)

‘Canadians are buckling up for the worst’: Jobs, economy concerns catching up to health care in Nanos tracking

Concern over jobs and the economy is closing in on health care as the top issue on Canadians’ minds, according to weekly national tracking by Nanos Research.

Health care began trending steadily up as the number one issue for Canadians beginning in the fall of 2022, before rising dramatically as winter arrived and hospital rooms were buckling under the strain of flu, RSV and COVID-19 cases. In late November, it hit a two-year high on Nanos’ weekly issues tracking.
