Canada’s COVID-19 border restrictions will end on Sept. 30, alongside the mandatory use of the ArriveCAN app, the federal government says.
The Liberal government officially announced the changes on Monday after Global News and other media reported last week Prime Minister Justin Trudeau signed off on them. They include mandatory vaccinations, testing and quarantine of international travellers.
A little late no?

Military sounding alarm over recruiting problems as Canadians steer clear
OTTAWA — The Canadian Armed Forces is sounding the alarm over a severe shortage of recruits to fill thousands of vacant positions, with the shortfall so bad that senior officers are now calling it a crisis.
… Brodie was unable to say whether the push for diversity is hurting more than helping, at least in terms of sheer numbers, by turning off the military’s traditional recruiting pool: young, white men.
“We can’t measure the impact of that right now. It’s too early,” she said. “But to be very, very clear ⦠we want suitable candidates, and suitable candidates are those that first and foremost reflect the values of the Canadian Armed Forces.”
A shortage of white males volunteering to serve? Why could that be?
Maybe the government and schools should stop denigrating their heritage and calling them genocidal racists for starters. After all their forebears have done most of the building, fighting and dying for this country since 1867.
Does anyone recall the reluctance of Quebecers to fight in “English” wars?
Well now Canada has many little Quebec’s.
I believe the government’s reckless mass immigration policy has succeeded in turning Canada into a balkanized hodgepodge of disconnected tribes with greater loyalty to their “homelands” than Canada. Khalistan anyone? China anyone? Tamil Tigers anyone? Palestine anyone? I can’t see much incentive for a white male to risk his life for that.
We are not as Trudeau claimed the world’s first “Post – National State”, we are the world’s first “Fifth Columnist State.”
If they’re looking for recruits that reflect the values of the Canadian Armed Forces I hear a teacher in Oakville may be looking for a new career. Does CAF do custom uniform fittings?
Communities in southwestern Newfoundland are grappling with significant damage, including lost homes, flooding and road washouts due to post-tropical storm Fiona.
Everything east of town hall in Port aux Basques is under an emergency evacuation order as the town is pounded by severe winds and storm surge.
“What’s actually happening here is total devastation,” said Mayor Brian Button.
Some amazing video of the ocean pummeling the shorelines of Port aux Basques earlier today. This was taken by @NTVNewsNL reporter @DonBradshawNTV who is covering the area for us. We are being as safe as possible given the conditions. #nlwx #Fiona pic.twitter.com/rxTWjdFboI

When a cache of weapons was found in a tiny Canadian village that has become a symbol of the far right, it didn’t take long for new conspiracy theories to start circulating.
COUTTS, Alberta — The village’s only restaurant offers smiles and two pamphlets, one denouncing Covid-19 vaccines for children, the other saying the United Nations’ mission includes creating a “microchipped society” for “tracking and controlling.”
So pervasive is the belief here that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a dictator-in-the-making that even a top official in the village admits she “may have” a flag telling Canada’s leader where to go — rudely.
The head of a group with ties to the Freedom Convoy says they are planning to leave an Ottawa church after a judge ordered the group can be evicted.
Ontario Superior Court Justice Sally Gomery granted an application on Friday by the owners of St. Brigid’s in Lowertown to evict The United People of Canada from the property.
Things are getting interesting as regards our neighbor to the north. They suffer the same creeping tyranny that America does, but handle it a bit differently.
We all remember — or should remember — the preacher Artur Pawlowski, of Calgary’s street church. He fearlessly called out the police who invaded his church over ridiculous COVID regulations, calling them Nazis.
A B.C. nurse is facing a disciplinary hearing after the province’s regulator for nurses and midwives alleged that her remarks about “sex-based rights” were “discriminatory” to transgender people.
The hearing, which began on Sept. 21, raises concerns that Canadian regulatory bodies are “policing the speech” of professionals, a legal advocacy group says.
The Government of India has issued a warning to Indian nationals and students living in Canada about an increase in “hate crimes, sectarian violence, and anti-India activities” in the country, urging their citizens to exercise caution.
In a statement published Friday, India’s Ministry of External Affairs said officials have “taken up these incidents” with Canadian authorities and have asked for investigations into “said crimes.” The statement also claims hate crimes against Indian nationals have increased in Canada.
Oakville teacher’s attire warrants professional standards review: Lecce
The Ontario College of Teachers has been asked to review its standards for professionalism in light of an Oakville teacher’s controversial appearance in classrooms, Education Minister Stephen Lecce says.
Waste of time and money. The Ontario College Of Teachers approve of this crap.
On the evening of Feb. 7, a Chinese woman studying in Canada called a police hotline in a panic.
“Hello, is this the Fuzhou Public Security Bureau? I’ve been scammed,” the woman, surnamed Wang, told the operator. She described how she had been defrauded of about $400 by someone calling themselves a “love-life mentor.”
In Fuzhou, the capital of southeast China’s Fujian province, police tracked the fraudster to the city’s Taijiang district. The man, surnamed Lin, eventually confessed to scamming nine victims out of more than $3,700.
3 in the GTA? Shouldn’t they be shut down? Let’s ask Xi’s lickspittle Trudeau.
The first big showdown between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre has come and gone and the best both leaders can boast is that they walked away with a draw.
While much sound and fury was expected on Thursday when the prime minister faced off for the first time against the new leader of the opposition, the spectacle was not all that noisy or furious.
In fact, you’d have to go back to that rainy, sodden Canada Day in 2017 — the country’s 150th birthday party — to find a fireworks show that similarly fizzled.
Pierre Poilievre’s Big Tent: How Pierre Poilievre won the battle for the soul of the Conservative party
OTTAWA – Federal agencies are trying to boost efforts to trace the origins of guns used in crimes, but it appears jurisdictional hurdles could prevent the measures from going as far as some would like.
The federal government says the RCMP has introduced a new mandatory tracing policy, meaning that in places where the Mounties are the police of jurisdiction, seized illegal guns will automatically be sent to the force’s national firearms tracing centre.
They want your gun.
“It will come out the truth and you don’t want to be on that side of the fence when you have killed or actually murdered innocent people,” Ladislas Kenderesi said at an anti-lockdown protest in 2020.
A Canadian Armed Forces reservist was fined $4,200 and will receive a “severe reprimand” after pleading guilty on Thursday to a misconduct charge for urging military personnel not to distribute COVID-19 vaccines, which he linked to murder.
The charge of “conduct to the prejudice of good order and discipline” against Officer Cadet Ladislas Kenderesi, 60, relates to comments he made to the crowd at an anti-lockdown protest in downtown Toronto in December 2020 while in full uniform. The comments were captured on videos posted to the internet.
… Laith Marouf — the antisemitic, anti-racist, pro-decolonization activist who received federal funding to make a socially just broadcasting strategy for the country — isn’t exercising it. Instead, in a statement released Monday, he doubled down on his antisemitic talking points that caused his funding to be revoked. Perhaps he should have stayed silent, because he isn’t a very sympathetic character.
