OTTAWA — Conservative media personality Jordan Peterson says he’s looking into legal action after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said this week that Peterson is receiving funding from Russian state-owned media outlet RT.
Trudeau made the comments under oath during his lengthy testimony on Wednesday at the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference and did not provide any evidence for them.
From October 3 to 9, 2024, Abacus Data conducted a national survey of 1,915 Canadian adults (18+) to gauge their perspectives on immigration and its perceived impacts.
The results reveal a significant shift in sentiment, with a majority now viewing immigration negatively, largely influenced by political affiliations and age.
Concerns extend beyond newcomers, as many Canadians also express concern about domestic migration exacerbating housing shortages and straining public resources and services.
Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has missed this year’s deficit target by 17%, according to a report by the Budget Office, with debt servicing costs becoming the fastest-growing expense in the federal budget.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the report, Economic and Fiscal Outlook October 2024, revealed that last year’s deficit, initially estimated by Freeland at $40 billion, is actually closer to $46.8 billion.
OTTAWA — One of Jean Chrétien’s closest advisors is making the case for Justin Trudeau to leave politics to embrace a bigger cause — the unity of his country.
Eddie Goldenberg, who was Chrétien’s right-hand man for decades and served as chief of staff and senior policy advisor during his years in power, penned a piece called “Justin Trudeau’s Obligation to Canada” on Friday in which he argues that an undefeated Trudeau could be more useful in leading the fight against separatists in Quebec.
Concerns of ‘hateful racism’ after Ontario man’s video of woman ranting about people from India goes viral
A Waterloo, Ont., man is speaking out after his video of a woman ranting about the South Asian community went viral.
Ashwin Annamalai said he used his cellphone to record the woman after she gave him the middle finger, an action he said was unprovoked, while he was out for a walk on Tuesday evening.
Annamalai said that after he confronted the woman to ask what he had done to deserve the gesture, she went on about how Indian people are invading Canada.
The once welcoming community of Kitchener-Waterloo has seen a disturbing rise in hate, particularly against people of colour. Here’s a personal account of what I experienced today: A random woman gave me the finger & spewed hate while I was out for a walk at Erb/Avondale 1/n pic.twitter.com/TxvXeXW3Yd

He is a former “international student” who seems locked on to the diversity gravy train.

If Justin Trudeau had his way, Canadians would never know about foreign interference in this country, never mind the names of those involved. Trudeau made that abundantly clear in his highly partisan appearance at the Foreign Interference Commission on Wednesday.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made waves Wednesday by turning what started as an examination of his government’s response to foreign interference into a pointed criticism of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.
“I’m getting a little more partisan than I tried to in this case, but it is so egregious to me that the leader of the Official Opposition, who is certainly trying very hard to become prime minister, is choosing to play partisan games with foreign interference,” Trudeau told the public inquiry into foreign interference on Wednesday.
Clear majority of Canadians now say there’s too much immigration
For the first time in a quarter-century, a long-term tracking poll has found a clear majority of Canadians believe the country has accepted too many immigrants.
According to the results of the survey released on Thursday, 58 per cent Canadians said there’s too much immigration, up from 44 per cent in 2023 and 27 per cent in 2022.
The responses continue a trend since 2022, after years of a pro-immigration consensus.
We did not “accept” anything. The Trudeau government and the Business class dumped them on us so they could benefit from the economic and social chaos that has ensued.
Zionism made Yahya Sinwar. He lived EVERY DAY of his life under brutal occupation: His people killed, land & resources stolen & the thieves call HIM the savage for having the audacity to fight back.
He had every right to resist, and did so till his last breath.

Just before I shot this last video, I overhead two women attending a conference from out of town say that they would "never return to this crazy shit hole".
They have been chanting "From the river to the sea", "no 2 state solution" and "take us back to 48". All calls for the… pic.twitter.com/832E7lLQae

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said under oath that Tucker Carlson is funded by a Russian state-owned media outlet, without providing evidence for the claim.
Trudeau made the allegation about Carlson and fellow conservative media personality Jordan Peterson while testifying at a public inquiry into foreign interference on Wednesday.
The Canadian prime minister was addressing alleged Russian influence in spreading anti-vaccine messaging in the media and on social media during the “Freedom Convoy,” a protest against COVID-19 vaccines and restrictions in Canada in early 2022.
No way to sue Junior I suppose.
At this point, everyone in Canada has heard about the Carbon Tax and had a chance to experience its negative effects. But less has been said about another harmful policy dreamed up by the Trudeau government — the Emissions Cap on the oil and gas sector. Just like the Carbon Tax, the Emissions Cap is part of Trudeau’s larger program to try and achieve “Net Zero” greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, which will have no positive impact on the environment, but which will be ruinous to Canada’s natural resource sector and to the national economy.
When former Alberta premier Jason Kenney was but a lowly minister of state for multiculturalism in Stephen Harper’s Ottawa, he used to be known as the “minister for curry in a hurry.”
The moniker was a nod to Kenney’s punishing weekend schedules: it wasn’t unusual for the minister, despite his work obligations in Ottawa, to wrack up 30 visits in a weekend of campaigning in multicultural hotspots such as Toronto and Vancouver. Kenney would dip into this temple and that, from this cultural celebration to another, sampling the culinary delights of each community as he went.
Love him or hate him, you’ve got to give Justin Trudeau credit. He is the political equivalent of a cockroach. You can spray him with invective, stomp on him with slogans, drown him in bad polls, and still he scuttles along, fighting to survive. And not only survive, but attack, accusing his opponents of the greatest sin in politics: being traitors to their country.
The Justin Trudeau loyalists are digging in. There’s a “considerable cadre who want him to move on,” long-time Liberal MP John McKay told me. “But he’s stared them down before and he’s staring them down now.”
Some of the voices of dissent are not getting through to Mr. Trudeau, Senator Percy Downe, one of the first to call for his ouster, said in an e-mail. They’re being blocked, he said, by his chief of staff, the all-powerful Katie Telford.
Once again, Justin Trudeau showed there is no issue so serious that he wouldn’t use it for his own political advantage.
While testifying before the Foreign Interference Commission, Trudeau accused the Conservatives of harbouring people involved in foreign interference and Leader Pierre Poilievre of looking the other way.
Four more federal cabinet ministers will not run for re-election, Radio-Canada has learned, meaning Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will reshuffle his cabinet at a time when his leadership is increasingly fragile.
Marie-Claude Bibeau (National Revenue), Carla Qualtrough (Sports), Filomena Tassi (Economic Development for Southern Ontario) and Dan Vandal (Northern Affairs) have informed the prime minister they won’t be running in the next federal election.
… According to Radio-Canada’s count, 24 elected members of the Liberal caucus don’t intend to seek re-election. That’s not counting the seven MPs who have resigned since the last election, including former ministers Marc Garneau, David Lametti and Carolyn Bennett.
A slow motion ouster.
