“… Anyone who makes even a notional effort to check the origins of the stuff they grab off the shelves of any big-box store understands that China is the dominant supplier. The less expensive it is, the more likely it is to have been made in a factory in Guangdong, or Jiangsu or Zhejiang. “
The China Class sold us out.
After weeks of criticism from scientists and global health experts, Canada has dropped a travel rule that had rejected COVID-19 tests from South Africa and had required Canadian travellers to get tests from third countries.
But Guy Saint-Jacques added he is not concerned about the athletes’ safety due to the worldwide backlash he says China would face if it made such a move.
The federal government introduced legislation Tuesday to repeal mandatory minimum penalties for drug offences, and Health Canada decided last year to allow some palliative patients to use psilocybin — the chemical compound in magic mushrooms — to relieve end-of-life suffering. Toronto and Vancouver have also called for the decriminalization of the possession of small amounts of drugs.
Regardless of the names of the parties that continue to assault freedom, they are pushing a socialist authoritarian agenda.
The editors have invited me to write about the 90th anniversary of the proclamation of the Statute of Westminster on Dec. 11, 1931, which effectively made Canada and other comparable British Empire jurisdictions autonomous of British laws. The so-called Dominions that were declared to be of equal sovereignty to the United Kingdom were Canada, Australia, what was then known as the Irish Free State and which became the Republic of Ireland, Newfoundland, New Zealand, and South Africa. These were the founding members of the British Commonwealth of Nations, which eventually became just the Commonwealth of Nations.
Canadians should “prepare for the worst” if U.S. lawmakers decide to greenlight President Joe Biden’s protectionist Build Back Better Act with the inclusion of the contentious electric vehicle tax credit, says International Trade Minister Mary Ng.
In an interview on CTV’s Question Period with Evan Solomon airing Sunday, Ng spoke to a letter she co-signed with Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, which threatens retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. if the tax credit isn’t amended.
“What my hope is, is that we are not going to have to do this at all but what is really important is that Canada prepares for the worst,” she said.
Canada is facing alcohol shortages ahead of the holidays due to supply chain issues, a situation prompting some provincial liquor authorities to urge customers to shop early — or be prepared to try a new libation.
Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault is now saying the country needs a national mandate to force auto dealers to sell a certain number of electric vehicles. He hopes the policy will be put in place by the end of next year.
This is not a good idea. It’s not in the best interests of Canadians.
We look at our Liberal government, and those of us not blindly in love with our pretty bobblehead of a prime minister will be unhappy for the long and unexplained delay in the line-by-line account of where the money went from the $600 billion first fired down the hole to beat the pandemic.
The annual Corruption Perceptions Index (the CPI) ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption, according to experts and business people. Since its inception in 1995, the CPI has become the leading global indicator of public sector corruption. The CPI is an annual snapshot of the relative degree of corruption by ranking countries and territories from all over the globe. The 2019 CPI draws on 13 surveys and expert assessments to measure public sector corruption, giving a score from zero (highly corrupt) to one hundred (very clean).
Canada finally joined the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Britain in their “diplomatic” boycott of China’s Winter Olympics.
Also welcome is the departure of Canadian ambassador to China, Dominic Barton, whose closeness to China’s political and economic elite should have disqualified him from ever becoming ambassador in the first place. He, along with Canada’s powerful business elite that does business with China, gave Canada a geopolitical black eye by convincing the hapless Liberals to say or do nothing in retaliation for the kidnapping of two innocent Canadian businessmen and loss of billions in contracts.
A diplomatic boycott is a garbage cop-out man!
Canada is threatening a retaliatory barrage of punitive tariffs and to reverse a number of dairy-related trade concessions if the United States goes through with its controversial plan to encourage the development and sale of U.S.-made electric vehicles.
In a stern letter dated Friday to key members of the Senate leadership, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland and Trade Minister Mary Ng promised to impose tariffs on a raft of U.S.-made products if President Joe Biden’s tax credit proposal becomes law.
They said the proposal amounts to a 34 per cent tariff on electric vehicles assembled in Canada and violates the terms of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA.
I think Biden’s handlers hate Justin. Who doesn’t? Perhaps a lecture on the need to legislate mandatory transgender EV Battery assembly would help open US eyes. Looks like the Dairy cartel stands to gain, so there’s that.
The Conservatives have lost their bid to resurrect a House of Commons order demanding the release of secret documents related to the firing of two scientists at Canada’s highest security laboratory.
Commons Speaker Anthony Rota ruled Thursday that the order expired, along with all other business before the House, when Parliament was dissolved in August for a federal election.
A Toronto man known as the voice of ISIS pleaded guilty to terrorism on Friday, admitting in a U.S. court he executed two Syrian soldiers.
Mohammed Khalifa faces a possible life sentence after pleading guilty to providing material resources to a foreign terrorist organization.
In a statement, the U.S. Department of Justice said the 38-year-old Canadian had confessed to conducting executions for ISIS on two occasions.
Rest assured Justin will spring this fine young Mohammedan.
And remember – you’re a racist!
