On a strip of grass dividing a busy east-end Montreal thoroughfare from a block of residences in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district stand about two dozen tents, a reflection of a housing market that can’t provide enough affordable homes.
Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Don’t expect Trudeau to follow in his father’s footsteps and take a walk in the snow this week
OTTAWA—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dodged a bullet from his own party last week.
A document signed by 24 caucus members set out the reasons why they think he should resign. One surprise element in the document was the deadline for his decision.
He has been told in no uncertain terms that he must make his future known one way or the other by Monday, Oct. 28.

Trudeau should listen to the dissidents who want change. But there’s a reason why the message isn’t getting through
… It’s not an easy thing to stand in front of a party leader — a prime minister — and tell him he should resign. It’s not an easy thing when that prime minister doesn’t like criticism and surrounds himself with people who tend to protect him from advice he doesn’t want to hear. It’s not an easy thing when cabinet and parliamentary secretary positions — and the perks and future income potential that go along with them — are being dangled to colleagues. It’s not an easy thing when one’s nomination papers — to run as a Liberal in the next election — haven’t been signed.
And it is not an easy thing when there is no obvious plan B.
Monthly food bank use in Trudeau’s Canada soars to record 2 million: report
Canada’s reliance on food banks has soared to a grim new milestone, according to data from Food Banks Canada.
The organization says it recorded more than two million visits in March 2024 – nearly double the monthly visits five years ago in March 2019, and six per cent above last year’s record-breaking figure.
THOMSON: Liberal dissidents blinked, as we knew they would
For days now Canada’s political commentariat have been writing feverishly about the drama surrounding this weeks failed Liberal caucus revolt. The general consensus attributes the botched coup to the Liberal party constitution which robs caucus of the power to force their leader to resign.
But what they lacked wasn’t power, it was conviction and courage.
That whiny punk Trudeau who has caused misery to millions says he thinks about how angry messages affect his family
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a podcast that he thinks about the angry messages some Canadians send his way and what impacts they — and his job overall — will have on his children.
Trudeau appeared on an episode of Inside the Village that was released Friday. On top of discussing his children, the prime minister also spoke about what comes next for him and his embattled Liberal Party and the recently announced cuts to immigration targets.
Sorry Justin but you don’t get to play victim you self-centered prick.
Justin Trudeau’s immigration U-turn is too little, too late
After surviving an abortive party revolt this week and with his personal popularity ratings in free fall, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is looking for ways to regain control of the narrative. And he may have just found one in the form of a major policy U-turn pledging to cut the country’s immigration targets. Flanked by immigration minister Marc Miller, Trudeau announced a 21% cut to next year’s permanent resident arrivals, from 500,000 to 395,000. This is to be followed by further cuts to 380,000 in 2026 and 365,000 in 2027.

‘A devastating blow’: What Danielle Smith fears Justin Trudeau might do
The Liberals’ hunger for eco-activists’ approval has left them ‘tone-deaf to what is happening in the real lives of real people,’ says Alberta’s premier
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is fighting for his political life but that hasn’t dampened his government’s zeal to push forward yet another scheme to slay climate change. In what appears to be an unprecedented move of economic self-sabotage by a national government, Trudeau aims to impose a ceiling on oil and gas emissions in Canada.
Trudeau is willing to sacrifice Canada on the altar of his ideology
The prime minister arrived home from liberating Southeast Asia from itself last week to be confronted with a raft of problems, from disloyal caucus members to India’s wrath over Khalistan. His opponents relished the consequences as he testified under oath before the Foreign Interference Commission on Wednesday.
But Justin Trudeau has entered his Sir Lancelot phase, where he rides about the countryside with a pure heart, his lance pointed at enemies of the PMO Round Table, hoping to make suburban damsels swoon again.
GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau sounds like the captain of the Titanic
Pity the federal Liberal caucus in Ottawa these days.
The must feel like the crew of the doomed Titanic, trapped on board and speeding toward the iceberg under the command of Captain Edward Smith – who would eventually drown along with 1,500 others in that infamous maritime disaster.
Oh No! Greater Vancouver Food Bank won’t serve first year international students
A Greater Vancouver Food Bank policy prevents international students experiencing food insecurity during their first year in Canada from receiving free food while they adjust to an unfamiliar country and community.
Emma Nelson, communications manager at the GVFB, said in an email the policy exists because the federal government requires international students to have “substantial savings” before coming to Canada.
Federal rules require international students to have $20,635 saved up, in addition to tuition and travel costs, in order to come to study in Canada.
Trudeau’s immigration scam makes the most vulnerable Canadian citizens compete with his foreigners for food.
Liberal revolt against Trudeau ‘lose-lose situation’ for all sides: expert
The revolt by some Liberal MPs against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s leadership may not have led to his ouster, but one political analyst says tensions within the party will last for some time — and may further hurt the Liberals’ electoral prospects.
GUNTER: Billions spent on EVs with little to show for it
In the past six years, the federal government alone has spent or committed to spend over $50 billion on electric vehicle (EV) production and sales. Provincial governments (mostly Ontario and Quebec) have committed another $20 billion-plus.
That’s not just for ultra-expensive EV battery plants, but also subsidies to EV buyers, plus money for EV infrastructure, such as charging stations and home chargers.
Canada is disintegrating: ‘There is no core identity, there is no mainstream’
What happens in a country without cultural conservatism? Look no further than Canada, where the national identity is disintegrating.
In 2015, soon after taking office, the new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gushed to a fawning New York Times that, “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada. There are shared values – openness, respect, compassion, willingness to work hard, to be there for each other – but there is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.”
This was Trudeau’s plan – destroying Canada was his WEF Wet Dream.
Anyone advocating for mass immigration, multiculturalism, or diversity should be in shackles.

Next steps in Trudeau’s caucus revolt up to each MP, says Liberal backbencher
A group of Liberal MPs have demanded that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau decide his future as party leader by Monday and that what happens after is “up to each individual MP,” according to one backbencher who’s part of the group.
In an interview airing Sunday on Rosemary Barton Live, New Brunswick MP Wayne Long said that “every MP is in their own kind of space” and that when it comes to next steps after the deadline, “a lot of it is up to each individual MP.”
