A report from the United Nations International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released this week suggests extreme weather events, from wildfires to floods to extreme heat, are the direct result of a climate that has already changed, and it will result in more unpredictable weather.
Despite a dramatic drop in government revenues last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the average Canadian family still paid more in total taxes than for the basic necessities of food, clothing and shelter, according to a new study by the Fraser Institute.
The ennobling and promotion of a vast increase in the numbers of suicides in the guise of health-care reform is a secular and ecclesiastical heresy.

The Liberal Party appears to be losing its momentum and now faces the prospect of eking out another minority government as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to trigger an election on Sunday, according to a new poll.
The poll by Nanos Research, completed Friday, shows the Liberals with only 33.4-per-cent voter support, a drop of 5.9 percentage points from four weeks ago when the party appeared headed for a majority government.
Cons at 28.4 says something.
A variant-fuelled fourth wave of the pandemic is pushing COVID-19 case counts to their highest levels in months.
Extreme heat and wildfires are threatening the lives and homes of people in British Columbia.
All of which has Canadians wondering — why exactly are we having an election right now?
Could it be we have a narcissist as PM?

As #ReinstatementDay trends, Twitter rushes to inform its users that Trump cannot be reinstated
The ‘reality czars’ at Reuters and USA Today were quick on the scene to pour cold water on the notion that Friday would see the return of former president Donald Trump to the White House. QAnon was blamed – or was it trolls?
Here’s how the federal leaders will pitch voters as an election campaign kicks off
OTTAWA – The lines of attack have been traced for months, but now federal parties’ battle plans are poised to go into effect with an election campaign set to kick off Sunday.
The Liberals hope to tout their record of steering the country through a global pandemic that threatened Canadians’ health and economic stability, and can be expected to keep casting doubt on Conservatives’ commitment to green efforts and LGBTQ rights.

Rift with US grows as UK minister voices fears over Afghanistan exit
Joe Biden’s decision to rapidly withdraw from Afghanistan is threatening to turn into one of the biggest Anglo-American foreign policy rifts in decades, with potentially dangerous political consequences if the UK government’s warnings about a return of terrorism and mass movement of refugees to Europe eventually prove correct.

Pictures reveal the dramatic moment a suspected British spy was led away in handcuffs by police outside his home near Berlin after being accused of selling secrets to Russia.
David Smith, 57, who worked as a guard at the British embassy in the German capital, was arrested at his flat in Potsdam after a long running investigation by security services in Germany and the UK.

If the politics whisperers are correct, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will call for an election Sunday, or Monday at the latest.
Newly-minted Governor General Mary Simon is now dusting off Rideau Hall’s finest bone china for some crowberry tea.
Enough is enough. The Jewish community is tired of the silence by Canadians over calls of genocide from pro-Palestinian groups. Quite frankly, as a peace activist, this sickens me more today than in the past two decades when these calls were confined to university campuses.
The silence of Canadians?
Silent because they have voluntarily or otherwise left the social media swamp of dictated correct opinion?
Could it be that these “silent Canadians” have elected to “self-censor” due to the Liberal Party’s impending internet cleansing?
Silent because the “news” is bought and paid for government propaganda?
And what of it? It’s likely they’re all Islamophobes anyway, just as our PM says.
Who needs to hear from transphobic cis-gendered white supremacists who stand against all that is holy in our progressive multicultural rainbow of diversity!
You know the type. So really what loss is their silence?
The voice of the progressive liberal-left is the only voice we need!

A campaign by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) hopes to make Canadians aware of how much debt the Liberal government has accrued on their behalf.
The cross-country initiative will include physical billboards and social media ads that seek to warn Canadians about the country’s growing debt.
Canada’s Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam says the country is amidst a fourth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic as variants of the virus continue to spread, namely among the unvaccinated.
According to a source speaking to multiple legacy media companies, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is planning on visiting Rideau Hall this weekend and will be asking the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and for a new election to be held on September 20.
Local police and the RCMP have made few arrests since domestic terrorists went on a non-stop church burning and vandalism spree throughout Canada earlier this year.
As far as The Counter Signal can tell, fewer people have been arrested for burning down churches in Canada than pastors have been arrested for simply trying to practice their religion during COVID-19.
