Mélanie Joly says war has broken out in Middle East — and ‘all parties’ must agree to ceasefire

OTTAWA — After Iran’s stunning missile attacks on Israel and Israel-led ground operations into Lebanon, Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly said Tuesday war has broken out in the Middle East and called on “all parties” to agree to a ceasefire to avoid devastating civilian casualties.

Joly said Canada “unequivocally” condemns Iran’s missile attacks on Israel which “will only serve to further destabilize the region, and it must stop,” as she issued another urgent warning to Canadians to leave Lebanon — warnings she admitted have not been widely heeded. On the contrary, another cabinet minister said some Lebanese-Canadians are taking a risk and “actually going to Lebanon” against the government’s advice.

Derek Burney: A wake-up call from RBC’s Dave McKay

Years ago, it was customary for Canadian bank CEOs and other senior business executives to opine candidly to shareholders and clients on public policy challenges facing Canada. As public attitudes and moods evolved, and because of deference to political correctness and woke trends or business prudence, executives became more circumspect, and interventions diminished in frequency and depth. Speeches adopted the word salad approach of many politicians, tilting to prevailing winds of likes and dislikes, while avoiding messages that might be construed as controversial or insensitive. Refreshingly, RBC’s CEO Dave McKay broke the conventional cone of silence recently in remarks to the Canadian Club in Toronto when he declared flatly that Canada is “definitely on the wrong path” and “we’ve got to make fundamental change to get back on the (right) track.” He cited specifically the need for a more competitive tax regime and a tighter relationship with the U.S.

It’s going to be very difficult to reverse the damage Trudeau has done, we are nearly a 3rd world country thanks to mass immigration from incompatible cultures, ruinous economic, environmental and social policy.

Canada’s New Young Conservatives

“Young people will change the world,” we often hear. And the implied change is always the same: a leftward shift. Youth are naturally rebellious, we’re told, and they’re bound to cast aside hidebound conservative ways. This has generally been true for Western and Central European youth, who have tended to lean left. The French coalition of far-left parties known as the New Popular Front got nearly half the 18- to 24-year-old vote and 38 percent of the 25- to 34-year-old vote in the last election, and the German Green Party would hold a majority today if only 18- to 34-year-olds voted. But now youth voting patterns seem to be changing. The surge of right-wing parties in recent European elections won significant support from people of all ages. And we can expect the proportion of right-wing youth to grow as liberal and left-wing parties get crazier. Indeed, this is what has happened in Canada.

The ‘task force’ Mark Carney was hired to lead has no members but him

Ignatieff but without the charm.

OTTAWA — Weeks after Mark Carney’s appointment as chair of the prime minister’s special new task force on economic growth, his outfit appears to have no firm deadline for its findings, no scheduled events and no other members except Carney.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that the former governor of Canada’s and England’s central banks and a rumoured Liberal leadership contender would be chair of the new “Leader’s Task Force on Economic Growth,” at the Liberal caucus retreat in early September. Carney’s role means he will be working for the Liberal party and not the government.

Is Trudeau sabotaging this guy?

Immigration hitting sour note in Canada’s biggest cities

Residents in some of Canada’s biggest cities want the Trudeau government to clamp down on immigration. A poll conducted by Maru Public Opinion for CityNews finds that a strong majority either wants immigration stopped for the foreseeable future or to have numbers reduced for the next two years.

Chinese-language media in Canada ‘dominated’ by Communist Party narratives: Report

Chinese-language media in this country are “dominated” by CCP “narratives and censorship of pro-democracy voices,” according to a top secret federal memo disclosed by the Commission on Foreign Interference.

The four-page memo from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service said CCP agents used “economic incentives” and other tactics to influence coverage by Chinese-language media in Canada. CSIS counted one million Canadian followers on the Chinese-language WeChat platform alone.

Buying a home out of reach for many Canadians for the foreseeable future

Buying a house may remain out of reach for many Canadians for the foreseeable future, with mortgage costs unlikely to fall enough to offset lofty home prices and weak spending power, economists and real estate agents say.

Even with expectations that the Bank of Canada will keep cutting interest rates in the coming months, the issue of home affordability — which has strangled Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s poll numbers — is unlikely to fade before the next election.

The mandate for the Liberal minority government ends at the end of October 2025, but an election could come well before then, with the Conservative opposition spoiling to end Trudeau’s nine-year run at the top.

No Prime Minister in Canada’s history even approaches the harm done by Trudeau.

Housing affordability, the destruction of Canadian society from the LPC’S evil mass immigration scam, the criminalization of citizens, the unmitigated anti-white racism of its woke policies, Soviet style 5 Year Plan economy ruining green scams and of course the lies, the constant stream of lies about any matter large or small.

Canada was slightly richer than Montana in 2019. Now it is poorer than Alabama

CANADA AND America’s economies are joined at the hip. Some $2bn of trade and 400,000 people cross their 9,000km of shared border every day. Canadians on the west coast do more day trips to nearby Seattle than to distant Toronto. No wonder, then, that the two economies have largely moved in lockstep in recent decades: between 2009 and 2019 America’s GDP grew by 27%; Canada’s expanded by 25%.

Joly warns UN about Trudeau government

‘They claim freedom as an excuse to do as they wish:’ Mélanie Joly warns UN about leaders who undermine democracy

OTTAWA—Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly took aim Monday at divisive political leaders who “weaponize” the word freedom in a speech to the United Nations that was one-part foreign policy, one-part domestic politics, and one-part personal positioning.

Joly delivered Canada’s formal address to the 79th UN general assembly in New York just days after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended a series of meetings there. In it she underscored the Liberal government’s oft-stated commitment to peacemaking efforts in Afghanistan, Haiti, the Middle East and Ukraine.

Project much? The woman has zero self-awareness.

Justin Trudeau is in Deep, Deep Do-Do as Polls Put Liberals in Fourth Place

One of the last Covid thugs of the democratic world is in deep, deep do-do. I refer to Canada’s Justin Trudeau and his Liberal Party. (Note to readers: in Canada the Liberal Party is and has always been a Left-of-centre party, these days a lot Left-of-centre. Here in Australia the Liberal Party has historically been Right-of-centre, though a fair few current Liberal Party MPs of the Black Hand Gang persuasion – I’m looking at you Simon Birmingham and most all of the remaining partyroom MPs who voted to defenestrate Tony Abbott in favour of Malcolm Turnbull – would much prefer the name ‘Liberal Party’ to be pronounced with a heavy Canadian accent. That’s one of the key underlying difficulties for Peter Dutton, the many, too-many wets in caucus who are incredibly out-of-step with the party base. We saw how that worked out for the Tories in Britain, didn’t we?)

Records submitted to the Commission on Foreign Interference suggest Defence Minister Bill Blair misled investigators while testifying under oath.

Documents disclosed by lawyers marked the second time Blair’s explanation for the mishandling of security matters was contradicted, per Blacklock’s Reporter.

Canada–China Ties Moving From Elite Control to ‘State Capture,’ Former Canadian Diplomat Warns

China’s influence on Canada is evolving from influencing political and economic elites to a more dangerous form of “state capture,” says a former diplomat posted to Canada’s embassy in China.

Charles Burton, a sinologist who is now a senior fellow at the think tank Sinopsis, made the remark during a Sept. 26 event in Ottawa for the launch of investigative journalist Sam Cooper’s third edition of “Wilful Blindness,” a book that examines China’s influence in Canada.

Neil Sharma: Liberals big government has left Canadians struggling for the basics

The federal Liberals are proving that big government does indeed impoverish the populations they govern.

Canada’s in the throes of a seemingly endless cost of living crisis, and while it’s doubtless a consequence of federal policies like mass immigration and the increasingly punitive carbon tax, the country’s over-inflated civil service is an outsized factor.

‘Salad bar extremism’ has come to Canada, intelligence report says

A new kind of violence known as “salad bar extremism” has come to Canada, warns an internal government report obtained by Global News.

The term refers to attacks fuelled by a mix of views rather than a coherent ideology, said the report, which cited the recent Edmonton city hall shooting.

“While some extremists are assessed to have a primary motivation, others are influenced by a combination of beliefs,” said the Strategic Threat Assessment.

“Salad Bar Extremism” is just the latest PC effort designed to avoid offending Muslims or Sikhs etc.

Terror on the home front?

…Closer to home, Canadians are increasingly concerned about the threat of rising jihadist-inspired terrorism.

Prior to ongoing Hamas-Israel war, Canadian authorities had charged only a handful of individuals for jihadist-motivated terrorism. Recent cases include a knife attack by an ISIL adherent in British Columbia and an instance of incitement/recruitment in support of terrorism in Montreal (both events happened in 2023). But within the past two months alone, there have been five separate incidents where Canadians or people with domicile in Canada have either launched jihadist-motivated attacks or been involved in their planning.
