Trudeau Government To Import 1,081,000 Immigrants In 2022-2023

Drilling down on these numbers reveals that 208,000 will qualify for Canada’s family reunification category. Under Canadian immigration policy, “family” refers to the following:

Spouses, same sex partners, common law partners, conjugal partners, children. parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces, grand-daughters, grand-sons.

A further 121,500 will enter Canada as refugees. The Resettlement Assistance Program provides these services during the first four to six weeks after clients get to Canada.

So proud of you, Canada. An example to the world.

Conrad Black: With America in decline, this is Canada’s time to shine

This is the time Canada has awaited for 350 years: the United States has momentarily subsided into a state of juvenilism and self-flagellation. Instead of wallowing in our own tears every time unmarked graves are discovered and prancing around gas-lighting and virtue-signalling over nebulous questions of climate change, and claiming to be a post-national state, we should take advantage of the first time in our history when we are not preoccupied with the Americans. We should resume the upward rise of Canada in the world, not out of any spite for the U.S., but to fulfill our long-perceived destiny and serve the common interests of the West.

Cruel Canada! The immigrants are lonely!

Calls for action, more data after Statistics Canada reports increased loneliness for immigrants

A new report by Statistics Canada about increased instances of self-reported loneliness among immigrants is sparking calls for additional data and action to address the issue.

In a recently released article by the federal agency, researchers examined data gathered during the 2018 general social survey as well as information through other sources to assess the loneliness among immigrants and those who were born in Canada.

“Recent and long-term immigrants reported higher levels of loneliness than the Canadian-born. Moreover, loneliness did not appear to be alleviated by the length of stay in Canada,” researchers noted in the document.

I blame white supremacy and the patriarchy.

Canadian church faces $85,000 in fines for breaking COVID rules

A Christian church in Canada, whose doors were locked by health officials for breaking COVID rules, is facing $85,000 in new fines, but a judge agreed Tuesday to allow them to open so long as they post a COVID safety “plan” inside their building.

“The other elders owe $7,500 each, and the church itself owes $35,000. The judge will review the Ministry of the Attorney General’s legal costs and then order us to pay legal costs at a later date. So in total we owe $85,000 plus legal costs,” wrote Pastor Jacob Reaume of Trinity Bible Chapel located in Waterloo, Ontario, in a July 27 note.

Rhode Island legalizes heroin injection sites based on failed Canadian models

As cities across the US reject legalized heroin injection sites and needle exchanges, the Rhode Island General Assembly has passed legislation to open the first injection sites in the US. The bill would authorize a two-year pilot program to create harm reduction centers, which is another term for heroin injection sites.

Liberals will extend COVID aid programs to October due to uneven rebound

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says the government is extending pandemic aid programs by an extra month beyond the previously planned end date.

The decision means that wage and rent subsidies for businesses, and income support for workers out of a job or who need to take time off to care for family or stay home sick, will last until Oct. 23.

Douglas Todd: Vancouver still suffering fallout from ‘students’ buying mansions

One of the more shocking examples was the University of B.C. “student” who bought a $31-million house a few years ago in Vancouver.

There were also the nine different international students who snagged $57 million in mortgage money from Canadian banks to buy posh dwellings across Metro Vancouver.

This is not to mention the countless other proxies who somehow obtained gigantic mortgages from Canadian banks without having to provide evidence they earned an actual income.

Communist Chinese 5th Columnist SFU Professor Pens Propaganda Piece For China Accusing Canada Of Genocide

SFU academic assails Canada’s criticism of China on human rights

A professor at one of Canada’s major universities has written a column for a state-run newspaper in China in which she defends Beijing’s record on ethnic minorities such as the Uyghurs and argues Canadians are being thoughtless and self-righteous in accusing the Chinese government of genocide in Xinjiang.

Yuezhi Zhao holds the Canada Research Chair in Political Economy of Global Communication at Simon Fraser University. Her column, titled Canada Should Reflect On Its Struggle With Racism and dated July 29, ran in China Daily. The Beijing-based English-language media outlet describes itself as a government agency on LinkedIn, and it is a central fixture of the Chinese government’s efforts to disseminate its views abroad.

… In a similar vein, Prof. Zhao accuses Canada of genocide, saying “the genocide of the aboriginal population has been at the very core of the founding of Canada.” She argues Canadians are mistakenly assuming that Beijing is trying to assimilate the Uyghurs.

Jack M. Mintz: We’re getting too far ahead on our climate policies that kill oil and gas jobs

Is Canada moving too quickly with climate-change policies to kill oil and gas jobs? After all, while we are pushing up the carbon price to $170 per tonne by 2030, the U.S. doesn’t even have a pricing policy yet. And on top of our aggressive carbon pricing, we are also adopting important — and burdensome — new measures such as clean fuel standards, electric-vehicle substitution and building retrofits. The federal government has also declared plastics toxic and introduced aggressive environmental regulations to stop fossil-fuel development.

Seeking a Caliphate Instead of the Commons

In preparation for the National Summit on so-called Islamophobia last Thursday, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) released a series of recommendations that reveal an agenda of separation, not integration.

As its report rightly states, Canadian Muslims are not a monolithic group. However, there was little presence of any diversity that makes up the Canadian Muslim community. Voices of Kurdish, Iranian, Baloch and anti-Taliban Afghans were absent as were those of North African Francophone Muslims largely settled in Quebec.

LEVY: The activists and leftist Toronto councillors are completely out of touch

As Toronto Police clear the illegal homeless encampments, activists and leftist politicians have done everything in their power to obstruct the police from doing their jobs and enforcing the law.

The reality is Mayor John Tory and the Toronto Police are doing the right thing by clearing these encampments. The activists and leftists city councillors are completely out of touch with Torontonians.

CRTC Says Competition, Consumer Choice Not for ‘Public Good Consideration’ in Bell Fibre Wire Ruling

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) issued a ruling today in regards to access to in-building wire (IBW) in multi-dwelling units (MDUs), that favoured Bell Canada.

In a nutshell, the CRTC ruling says “access to fibre IBW is not an essential service and will not be mandated.” The decision means companies using Bell Canada’s fibre IBW will need to negotiate an agreement with the company for access.
