The Trudeau Liberals have done some deep thinking about why they lost the Toronto-St. Paul’s byelection and have decided it was Leslie Church’s fault. Forget the fact that the Liberals have been trailing badly in the polls for the last year, forget that the prime minister is unpopular, let’s blame the local candidate.
Canada has reached record levels of immigration in recent years — but as housing costs continue to soar, many are finding their Canadian dream has turned into a nightmare.
According to the latest poll from the Angus Reid Institute, about two-in-five recent immigrants say they’re seriously considering leaving their province of residence due to housing unaffordability.
All regions suffer to a degree but Toronto is dying. Killed by Trudeau’s mass immigration scam.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he’s talking to Liberal MPs individually following the party’s recent by-election defeat, declining to commit to an in-person national caucus meeting.
Mr. Trudeau made the comments during a news conference in his Montreal riding of Papineau. It was his first news conference since last Monday’s Toronto-St. Paul’s by-election, which saw the Liberals lose the riding to the Conservatives for the first time in decades.
Moving half a world away from her family in India, 22-year-old Radhika Raina found comfort in Brampton, where she had a cousin.
The city is a 90-minute commute to her classes in Toronto but has the cultural amenities she needed in a foreign land.
“Brampton felt like a home to me,” said Raina, who came in August for a two-year postgraduate program in addictions and mental health. The program is offered jointly by London, Ont.-based Fanshawe College and a private school.
I’m sorry but Canadians should not have to pay for what amounts to a criminal act committed by the Trudeau Government.
Newfoundland Liberal MP Ken McDonald says he thinks it would take “somewhat of a miracle” to turn the Liberals’ electoral fortunes around before the next federal election.
Speaking with CBC’s Power & Politics, McDonald said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau still enjoys a high amount of support within the Liberal caucus after the party’s surprising byelection loss in a Toronto-area riding.
“I think there’s a lot of caucus members who are nervous,” McDonald said. “Do I think a large number still stand with the prime minister? Yes I do.”
According to a recent Statistics Canada report, Canada’s population has just hit the level it was previously expected to reach in 2028. That startling finding underscores the extraordinary growth of the country’s population since the pandemic, driven by record inflows of both permanent and “temporary” immigrants.
A rapidly expanding population can bring some benefits, notably by stimulating overall economic activity and providing additional workers. But it’s not an alloyed good. The number of Canadian residents is increasing faster than economic output (gross domestic product), which has translated into an unprecedented series of declines in per-person GDP over the last several quarters. Productivity is stagnant, as newcomers struggle to find their way in the economy and job market. In addition, a significant share of new immigrants don’t seek or obtain employment, dampening immigration’s contribution to the growth of economic output.
Documents show more than $600 million in Canadian Pension Plan (CPP) funds are in China’s electric vehicle sector — which was accused by cabinet of unfair trade practices.
The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board disclosed it held $604 million in shares in the Chinese electric vehicle sector, per Blacklock’s Reporter. No reason was given.
Justin Trudeau announced on Monday that he’s headed for Washington next week. What will he and President Joe Biden be talking about, behind the scenes at the NATO summit?
Endurance might be one topic. It’s been a bad week for Trudeau and Biden — arguably their worst weeks — with increasingly open questions of whether either leader should be hanging on.
Ottawa is considering buying hotels to house the growing number of asylum seekers and to cut the cost of block-booking hotel rooms to accommodate them, Immigration Minister Marc Miller says.
The federal government has in the last few years taken out long leases on hotels to help provinces house thousands of refugee claimants. This year, Ottawa has been footing the bill for approximately 4,000 hotel rooms for 7,300 asylum seekers, many of whom have transferred from provincial shelters and churches, according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
That’s a great idea.
Create a hotel room shortage that kills off tourism and business travel with jacked up rates while providing fake refugees shelter at the expense of our own homeless.
This is a period of Liberal reflection, we are now told by Justin Trudeau himself. That is naturally needed to digest his party’s gut-punch by-election loss in Toronto-St. Paul’s.
And there’s another thing he didn’t mention: The drumbeat of Liberals calling for the Prime Minister to go.
Directors of a charitable foundation that struck a deal with Ottawa to sponsor the immigration of Afghan Sikhs to Canada made political donations to then-defence minister Harjit Sajjan’s Vancouver South Liberal riding association around the same time as Canadian special forces soldiers were instructed to rescue and airlift the group from Kabul.
Elections Canada records show that between them, these directors made thousands of dollars of personal donations to the Liberal Vancouver South Liberal riding association in August 2021. Canada was in the midst of a general election campaign that had begun August 16 and Mr. Sajjan was seeking re-election in the Vancouver South riding.
Fuck diversity.
If you want a preview of the next election campaign, just watch the Canada Day messages from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre. They were a study in contrast in style, tone, content and vision. They also illustrate why the Conservatives are 20 points ahead of the Liberals in the polls, and likely to remain so.
According to a public opinion survey conducted by Ipsos (on behalf of BILD), 90 per cent of people in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) agree there is a housing affordability issue in the GTA and 72 per cent of agree that there is not enough being done to address it. In addition, approximately half of renters and young people in the GTA say they plan to move out of the province or to the suburbs in order to buy a home. Such shifts and the loss of these younger demographics would have a significant, and dire, impact on the GTA’s social and economic landscape.
The fault for this lies squarely with Trudeau and his destructive mass immigration scam.

OTTAWA — Just four out of 10 Canadians think the deal between the Liberals and the NDP to keep the Trudeau government in power has been a good thing, with even 40 per cent of New Democrats unconvinced of the value of the agreement, a new poll suggests.
5 more alleged senior members of Iranian regime face deportation from Canada
Immigration officials have launched deportation proceedings against five more suspected members of the Iranian regime found in Canada, according to newly released figures.
The Canada Border Services Agency has alleged they held senior positions in Iran’s repressive government and has asked the Immigration and Refugee Board to hold hearings.
