Can Canada become a global power?

Under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canada is one of the only countries in the world, in the history of the world, to routinely sacrifices its own national interest to virtue signal. Instead of focusing on a vision for Canada in the future, the Trudeau government is focused on social justice, climate change, mass redistribution of wealth and equity.

Canada’s top soldier says the military is on the ‘cusp’ of rapid change

Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre says the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) is facing many new challenges and will need to move quickly to cope.

In a speech delivered to one of Ottawa’s “Mayor’s Breakfast” networking events, Eyre said the military will need to adapt swiftly to changes in technology, geopolitics and culture to be effective.

He didn’t mince words when speaking about the CAF’s need to modernize.

“Overall, the armed forces that we have today is not the armed forces we need for the future,” he said.

“We are on the cusp of so much change that has to come.”

Trudeau Trying to Shut Down Independent Journalism in Canada, Says Rebel News Founder

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is trying to silence journalists who challenge his policies while giving special privileges to those who toe the line, an independent Canadian journalist told Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson Tuesday.

Ezra Levant, founder and CEO of Rebel News, said the Trudeau government has instituted a “Qualified Canadian Journalism Organization license” that gives licensed journalists tax subsidies and other favorable treatment.

“It’s not yet illegal to do journalism without the license,” Levant said, but he fears that “the worst is yet to come.”

Ted Morton: After 40 years, the charter is still one of the worst bargains in Canadian history

The 40th anniversary of the Charter of Rights is an appropriate time to assess how it has changed the way Canada is governed. Have there been winners and losers? And if so, why?

The biggest losers have been provincial governments, and those of us (both in Quebec and in the West) who would prefer to be governed by legislators who live in our neighbourhoods, share our concerns, and are elected and accountable to us, rather than by distant, unaccountable judges in Ottawa.

Systemic Racism Against Anglophones Comes To Canada

According to training materials authorized by Canada’s Liberal Government, “systemic racism includes the policies and practices entrenched in established institutions which result in the exclusion or promotion of designated groups.”

Sensible Canadians would believe this form of prejudice applies to all identifiable communities. They are wrong– an exemption exists among Canada’s Anglophone, Francophone, and European-derived communities.

Can Canada really ban gas cars by 2030?

Canada’s federal government has announced it will ban the sale of Internal Combustion Engine vehicles beginning in 2030. That’s less than eight years from today. What if they do?

Canadians bought 1.5 million new motor vehicles in 2020. It was a down year during the pandemic. Who’s going to make 1.5 million new Electric Vehicles for sale in Canada in 2030? Who’s going to buy them? Those are market-making questions.

A far more important question is how are they going to power these EVs?

‘Absolutely right’ to call Russia’s actions in Ukraine genocide says Jackass who thinks it’s understandable to burn churches over false mass grave claims

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters he thinks it’s “absolutely right” more people are using the word genocide to describe Russia’s actions in Ukraine, but stopped short of using the word himself.

“There are official processes around determinations of genocide, but I think it’s absolutely right that more people be talking and using the word genocide in terms of what Russia is doing, what Vladimir Putin has done,” Trudeau said at a news conference in Laval, Que.

National Muslim charity launching legal challenge of CRA audit, calling it Islamophobic

A national charity that describes itself as Canada’s largest grassroots Muslim organization is launching a Charter of Rights challenge against the Canada Revenue Agency, claiming that a years-long audit of the charity has been tainted by bias and Islamophobia.

The Muslim Association of Canada (MAC) plans to serve the government with its formal legal challenge today.

MAC said the audit, which began in 2015, poses an “existential threat” to the organization because it threatens to revoke its charitable status and raises the possibility of damaging sanctions.

“An unfair decision by the CRA will affect the lives of thousands of Canadians overnight,” MAC chairperson Nabil Sultan told CBC News.

MAC is the Muslim Brotherhood.

Bank of Canada hikes benchmark interest rate to 1%

The Bank of Canada hiked its benchmark interest rate by half a percentage point to one per cent on Wednesday in its latest move to rein in high inflation.

The bank’s rate impacts Canadian businesses and consumers by influencing the rates they pay and receive on things like mortgages, GICs and savings accounts.

The bank slashed its rate to barely above zero in March of 2020 when the pandemic began.

While the move helped the economy to weather the unprecedented uncertainty of COVID-19, in recent months, inflation has come roaring back to its highest level in decades, prompting the central bank to start unwinding all that cheap credit.

Manufactured Discontent: Canada Named Second Best Country For Racial Equality

Within contemporary Canada, persecution makes for strange bedfellows. Certain community affinities stand as a testament. Time was when racism against “minorities” stood as a singular category of social oppression. That was all so “2014.” Within post-modern society, sexual bigotry has progressed toward a social standard.

Today, we have racism, bigotry, xenophobia, homophobia and transphobia. Such “diversity” is not without purpose. Expand the qualifying categories, and the so-called anti-hate movement grows in power and influence. In PM Justin Trudeau’s Canada, lack of racial and sexual equality has come to underline all social maladies.
