The Surrey Police Union has slammed Justin Trudeau over his claim that the Liberals’ gun ban achieved its intended goal.
They argued that the policy did little to prevent firearms from making their way into Canada from the United States.
Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Voting to topple the government not out of the question, says Liberal MP Ken McDonald
A Liberal Newfoundland and Labrador MP who has signed a letter calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign says going against the government on a non-confidence vote isn’t out of the realm of possibility.
Ken McDonald is one of a reported 24 MPs who signed the document calling for Trudeau’s resignation, following a sharp drop in leader and party popularity.
The letter was presented to Trudeau at the party’s national caucus meeting on Wednesday.
Something’s gotta give.
Trudeau government claims it’s going to slash immigration levels …
OTTAWA — The Trudeau government will announce a dramatic immigration cut Thursday, reducing new permanent resident numbers by almost 100,000 in 2025 after years of consecutive increases to the country’s immigration targets.
Barring any last-minute changes, information obtained by National Post shows the government is planning to decrease permanent resident intake from 485,000 this year to 395,000 in 2025. It is then expecting to further cut intake to 380,000 in 2026 and 365,000 in 2027.
These so called cuts are Bullshit given the damage done and the numbers here already.
They’ll find some other program to juice migrant intake and pretend it accidentally got away when found out.
China could not dream of a better ally than Justin Trudeau
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau continues to suffer diplomatic and political fallout for accusing India, without solid evidence, of complicity in the murder of Sikh militant Hardeep Singh Nijjar, whose extradition India repeatedly requested. Nijjar immigrated illegally to Canada using a false passport and then used his Canadian perch to establish a terrorist training camp, blow up a crowded cinema in India, and seek targeted killings of rivals and Indian government officials.
Even if India had ordered the hit on its own Osama bin Laden, and there is no conclusive evidence it did so, Nijjar seems a curious sword on which Trudeau should fall.

Tom Mulcair: What’s Justin Trudeau’s track record on Quebec separatism?
With the old threat of Quebec separatism rearing its head with the Parti Quebecois on the rise in the polls and its leader promising a referendum on Quebec sovereignty if he’s elected, thoughtful commentators have been fretting of late about the possibility of a third referendum(opens in a new tab).
I’ve got good news for them: it’s not going to happen.
That’s not to say that separatism is dead. It ain’t. What is worth noting, though, is that it’s still stuck in the 33% range(opens in a new tab) where it’s been for decades.
Trudeau says Liberals ‘strong and united’ despite caucus dissent
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the Liberal party is “strong and united,” despite efforts from within his caucus to oust him as leader.
While he wouldn’t stop to take questions from reporters, Trudeau made the comment as caucus members made their way out of an exceptionally long and high-stakes meeting Wednesday, during which many of them were set to confront the prime minister and ask him to step down.
I doubt things are as rosy as described.
Some Liberal MPs issue an ultimatum to Trudeau: make up your mind to stay or go by Oct. 28
Some Liberal MPs issued an ultimatum to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Wednesday: decide in the next few days if you want to stay on as leader or face some unspecified consequences.
For weeks, anti-Trudeau MPs have been meeting in secret to convince caucus members to band together and push Trudeau out of the top job to save the party from electoral ruin.
‘Code Red’ petition from Liberals urges secret ballot on Justin Trudeau’s leadership
OTTAWA—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was all smiles as he walked into a Liberal caucus meeting Wednesday morning, where dissidents in his own ranks were prepared to challenge his leadership while his supporters harshly condemned the damaging show of disunity.
At the same time, a grassroots petition describing an “existential crisis” in the Liberal party was demanding an urgent secret ballot vote — both inside the caucus room and at the party’s national executive — on whether Trudeau really should stay on in the face of months of bad polls that place his party well behind Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives.
#BREAKING: The letter signed by 40 of my MP’s (named the Code Red Petition) demanding my resignation, has leaked.
That’s why I’m disbanding the Liberal Party, proroguing Parliament, and suspending the next election indefinitely.

Someone will be shown the door when Justin Trudeau meets his caucus
Ten years ago this week, Justin Trudeau was assembling all the pieces that would make him prime minister within a year.
He had turned his landslide 2013 Liberal leadership victory into what his team liked to call a “movement,” fuelled by Trudeau’s popularity and crowd-drawing appeal.
To feed Canadians’ curiosity about a man who many already thought they knew, Trudeau released his autobiography, “Common Ground.” The official Ottawa launch was set for mid-October.
Battery electric vehicles make up just 1% of Canadian fleet amid feasibility concerns over 2035 gas ban
New data from Statistics Canada reveals that battery electric vehicles (BEVs) account for only 1.3% of the 25.7 million road vehicles in the country, casting doubt on the federal government’s ambitious mandate to eliminate new gasoline and diesel vehicle sales by 2035.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the Vehicle Registrations 2023 report, released Monday, shows that gasoline-powered light-duty vehicles still dominate the roads, representing 93% of the national fleet.
U.S. Republican says Trudeau, not Trump, is NATO threat on defence spending
A U.S. Republican congressman is calling Prime Minister Justin Trudeau a “threat” to NATO’s stability and success, saying Canada’s defence spending and military contributions aren’t enough.
U.S. Rep. Mike Turner made the comments in an op-ed in Newsweek suggesting “Trudeau, not (Donald) Trump, is a threat to the stability and success of NATO” because of the country’s long-standing lag on a plan to hit the agreed upon target for members to spend two per cent of their GDP on defence.
Trudeau’s zero hour: Liberals gear up for high-stakes showdown Wednesday
OTTAWA — Liberal MPs are gearing up for a high stakes caucus meeting on Wednesday that could see multiple calls for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign, but it is unclear what, if anything, will come of the internal revolt or if it will simply fizzle out.
Before the cabinet meeting, Liberal ministers on Tuesday were reaffirming their confidence in Trudeau in droves while downplaying the idea that dozens of MPs had added their signatures to a letter to ask the prime minister to step down for the good of the country.

In a letter sent to the House of Commons on Monday, Karen Hogan confirmed that her office will look at all government contracts awarded to GC Strategies, its predecessor Coredal and other companies incorporated by the two co-founders. She will also examine related subcontracts.

The embattled prime minister will face his party Wednesday at a caucus meeting. The letter is expected to be delivered to him at that time.
Tasha Kheiriddin: The sharks are circling Trudeau. There’s blood in the water
The sharks are circling the tank.
Yesterday, former BC Premier Christy Clark made headlines for eyeing the Liberal leadership, when it eventually opens up. Clark is taking French lessons, and according to sources who spoke to the National Post, several Chrétien and Martin-era Liberal organizers are supporting her potential candidacy. Clark tempered the speculation on X, writing that “The Prime Minister has earned the right to make any decision about his leadership on his own — the position of leader is not open.” For now.
Matthew Lau: Government-run daycare is a disaster. Is anyone surprised?
The government takeover of child care is reaching a crisis point in Ontario. This week, child-care operators are participating in rolling closures to protest the provincial funding formula and the inflexibility of the federal program. Daycare operator and industry group leader Jacky Sheppard of Peel Region estimates 30 or more daycare centres are taking part. Krystal Churcher of AACE National, a national committee of child-care operators, said she didn’t know exactly how many Ontario centres would be closed but “it’s a lot.” AACE National is organizing two protests of its own this week, one at Queen’s Park on Tuesday and another at Parliament Hill on Thursday, where it says “hundreds of child-care providers, parents and supporters will gather to make their voices heard.”
