What former Facebook data scientist Frances Haugen said was far less surprising than the fact she said it at all. The whistleblower made headlines when she testified before U.S. senators that Facebook knowingly operates products that “harm children, stoke division and weaken our democracy.”
Not so sure about that, Haugen’s totalitarian leanings match nicely with the Trudeau Liberals desire for censorship.
The Chinese military on Sunday condemned Canada and the United States for each sending a warship through the Taiwan Strait last week, saying they were threatening peace and stability in the region.
China claims democratically ruled Taiwan as its own territory and has mounted repeated air force missions into Taiwan’s air defence identification zone (ADIZ) over the past year, provoking anger in Taipei.
China sent about 150 aircraft into the zone over a four-day period beginning on Oct. 1 in a further heightening of tensions between Beijing and Taipei that has sparked concern internationally.
This is simultaneously a dumb & clever move by the politicians. Dumb, because it weakens the system, clever because it will keep the atmosphere of fear and crisis going on even longer.
New Brunswick police arrested associate pastor Cody Butler on Sunday at His Tabernacle Family Church after holding a worship service that exceeded the “health limit” arbitrarily set by the government. Authorities literally padlocked the church.
As Canadians are facing unprecedented spikes in the price of gasoline at the pump, Ontario Premier Doug Ford told reporters that the carbon tax will only compound the high prices even further.
SecondStreet.org recently asked governments across the country a simple question – when was the last time you cut pay for your employees?

OTTAWA — Military police say they are investigating “historic” allegations of sexual misconduct involving yet another senior commander, this time the officer responsible for human resources in the Canadian Armed Forces.
The Canadian Forces National Investigation Service revealed the investigation involving Lt.-Gen. Steven Whelan on Friday night, five months after he was installed as the head of military personnel command, which is responsible for everything from recruitment to promotions to health care.
They need more cross dressers.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s can’t-delay campaign for historic change has produced a sloth-speed government with a cabinet yet to be named, an idled bureaucracy waiting for orders and no date for Parliament’s return in sight.
A letter sent by Adm. Art McDonald to senior military officials claiming he has been exonerated on an allegation of sexual assault and should be immediately reinstated is “shocking,” says Canada’s acting top soldier.
In a letter sent by Gen. Wayne Eyre to senior staff and shared with Global News, the acting chief of the defence staff responded to the letter sent by McDonald, who was placed on indefinite leave by the government amid an increasingly public battle to return to the top post.
As the Trudeau Liberals continue to be rightly criticized by conservatives for leading Canada into socialism, an American professor who was once a Marxist now says after travelling the globe that socialism doesn’t work.
For months now, a legislative proposal inching its way through the U.S. Congress has been stoking consternation across the border.
Canadian policy-makers and businesses have been warily eyeing Buy American proposals designed to shift auto production to the U.S.

According to the Liberal government’s own data, Canada’s foreign aid budgets involve transferring funds to the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and African Development Bank.
From 2003 to 2020, the World Bank’s Doing Business Report(DBR) was generally seen as a trusted measure of how business is conducted around the globe. Yet, according to former World Bank senior manager Paul Cadario, there has been controversy about the DBR’s methodology since its inception. China is a major shareholder of the World Bank and therefore has considerable financial leverage over it.
“The DBR was discontinued this year , after data irregularities in its 2018 and 2020 editions suggested that China, as well as a few other autocracies, were given unfair bumps.”
In other words, a discovery of corruption within the ranks. It is within this context that Cultural Action Party review Liberal government foreign aid policy.
A former governor of the Bank of Canada is bracing for the inflationary trends that central bankers are wrestling with around the world to last a little longer than some people might think.
Canada was the first “woke nation” on the planet.
If you missed Canada’s election late last month, you can be forgiven. It ended just like the last two before it: with Justin Trudeau’s left-wing Liberal Party handedly beating out the Conservative opposition just as most predicted. Being the perennial party of choice for the financial and media elite in Toronto and Montreal, the Liberals have won a whopping 75 percent of Canada’s elections since 1900, making the country resemble a kind of one-party-state of sorts.
