Vivian Bercovici: By backing arrest of Netanyahu, Trudeau aligns with Iran’s terror network

TEL AVIV — In May, 2024, International Criminal Court Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan, K.C., abruptly cancelled a planned trip to Israel. Khan and ICC staff were meant to meet with Israeli officials in government, the military and NGO sectors.

Instead, on the same day he cancelled, Khan appeared before a panel of ICC judges asking them to consider issuing arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, then Minister of Defence Yoav Gallant as well as Hamas senior leaders Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh and Mohammed Deif.

WARMINGTON: Prime Minister rocks with Swifties in Toronto as rioters roll on Montreal

Justin – Faggotry Afoot

Justin Trudeau Par-Tayed in Toronto while Montreal burned Friday night.

It was far too easy of a pun to play off of as videos posted to social media showed the Prime Minister dancing at the Rogers Centre with fellow Swifties during the fifth of six Taylor Swift concerts.

And many on social media have been doing just that.

US senator says Trump would laugh at Canada’s military spending as Canadian security forum begins

HALIFAX, Nova Scotia (AP) — A U.S. senator and supporter of Donald Trump said Friday the president-elect would laugh at Canada’s current military spending plans and said the country must do more.

Idaho Republican Sen. Jim Risch, ranking member of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, made the remarks at the start of the annual Halifax International Security Forum which attracts defense and security officials from Western democracies.

According to NATO figures, Canada was estimated to be spending 1.33% of GDP on its military budget in 2023, below the 2% target that NATO countries have set for themselves.

Canada Fears Trump’s Mass Deportations Will Push Migrants North

At 5,525 miles, it is the longest border between any two countries. And that border — separating the United States and Canada — seems set to become a flashpoint between the close allies as President-elect Donald J. Trump prepares to take power.

The Canadian authorities fear that Mr. Trump’s promised mass deportations will push migrants north, while allies of the incoming president headed for key roles in his administration have raised alarms over a recent spike in undocumented migrants crossing from Canada to the United States.

Canadian officials are drawing up plans to add patrols, buy new vehicles and set up emergency reception facilities at the border between New York State and the province of Quebec to prepare for what they expect to be a surge in migrants because of Mr. Trump’s hard line on deportations.

LILLEY: Trudeau’s reckless refugee policy bankrupting Canada

The explosion in refugee claims in Canada over the past few years is costing Canadian taxpayers billions in mostly unseen costs.

On Friday, CBC broke the news of the federal health program for refugees now costing $411 million per year, but that is just the tip of the iceberg shocking as it is.

Justin Trudeau’s shameless giveaway plan is incoherent, unnecessary and frankly embarrassing

Quick, someone tell Doug Ford: Now’s your chance to secure federal billions for a tunnel under Highway 401.

I kid, I kid. But it is hard not to escape the extremely Fordian air of the emergency policies announced on Thursday afternoon by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. A $250 one-time vote-buying cheque? Liberals were mocking the Ontario Premier’s plan for $200 handouts, right up until they decided to steal the idea. Instead of its euphemistic title of Working Canadians Rebate, they might as well have called it Our Last Shred of Dignity.

Jamie Sarkonak: Trudeau’s cynical GST ‘holiday’ that no one asked for

At this point, the taxpayer experience is a bit like that of a seagull being thrown fries in the McDonald’s parking lot. The Liberals behind the wheel get to throw delicious chunks of potato out the window, delight at the sound of the masses squawking in thanks and drive off when the urge to be generous has been satisfied. They’re out of money for more combo meals but it doesn’t matter — they can just put it on the credit card, anyway.

WARMINGTON: Trudeau saying ICC can arrest Netanyahu is music to Hamas supporters’ ears

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was just putting on the record what was already abundantly clear.

Canada is with Hamas.

The key thing Trudeau did with his declaration that Canada would not stand in the way of the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is send the message to Hamas supporters that they have full backing to do what they want.

Trudeau’s ‘GST holiday’ doubles federal budget hole

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday outlined pre-election perks for taxpayers that open a budget hole worth $5 billion to $10 billion, figures show, per Blacklock’s Reporter.

The finance department declined comment on the impact on this year’s deficit that is already 17% over estimate.

“Everybody had to tighten their belts a little bit,” Trudeau told reporters.

GUNTER: Trudeau Liberals’ latest vote-buying attempt laughable

Just about 20 years ago, a Liberal named Scott Reid, who was party leader Paul Martin’s communications director, sneered at a campaign promise from Conservative Leader Stephen Harper. The Conservatives had proposed to give Canadian families $1,200 a year to spend on the child care of their choice — day homes, family members and friends or formal daycare.

Reid sneered during a CBC panel discussion that the payments would just turn out to be “25 bucks a week to blow on beer and popcorn.”

Trudeau gov’t wants $411 million more to cover health care as the number of replacement migrants soars

Feds want $411 million to cover refugee health care as the number of new arrivals soars

The federal government is asking Parliament to approve hundreds of millions of dollars in new spending to cover the health-care costs of eligible refugees and asylum seekers — a budget line item that has soared in recent years as the number of these newcomers reached record highs.

The Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) is designed to cover migrants who don’t yet qualify for provincial or territorial medicare. By removing some barriers to health care, the program makes it easier for refugees — many of them fleeing conflict or persecution abroad — to get the care they need on arrival.

Trudeau funds this with your tax dollars: UNRWA Student Calls for Jews To Be ‘Wiped From All of Palestine’ in Video

Video of 14-Year-Old Unrwa Student Calling for Jews To Be ‘Wiped From All of Palestine’ Among New ‘Trove of Evidence’ About UN Agency

Palestinian children enrolled in schools operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East are reportedly being taught to “fight back and resist” so that “Palestine will be liberated and our lands will return to us by the good grace of Allah.”

That’s a direct quote from a 14-year-old student studying at an Unrwa school at Ein Arik, who is featured in a harrowing interview released by a United Nations monitoring group, UN Watch, on Wednesday. The video is just one of the documents that UN Watch — a strident critic of the agency — has pulled out from its “massive new trove of evidence” that put on display Unrwa’s “complicity with terror.”

Justin Trudeau’s amazingly unsubtle pre-election giveaway

In case Justin Trudeau’s new policy is too subtle, let this detail draw the picture: His government is lifting the GST on Christmas trees.

In the New Year, the trees will be dumped on the curb, the dead needles will be swept up, and soon afterward, by Feb. 15, the GST holiday will be over too.

But an election will soon be at hand.

No ‘Trump Bump’ for Canadian Liberals after U.S. election, poll shows

One of the first politic polls of Canadians since the latest U.S. presidential election has found no evidence of a so-called “Trump Bump” for Canada’s governing Liberal party. What’s more, for the first time since the Liberals were elected in 2015, they are tied in second place with the New Democratic Party, far behind the opposition Conservatives.

Over the period from Nov. 14 to Nov. 19, Abacus Data conducted a national survey of 1,915 Canadian adults exploring several topics related to Canadian politics and current events, one of the pollster’s regular national omnibus surveys.
