The Liberal government’s approach to foreign interference? No transparency, no accountability, and a whole lot of inaction

Wednesday is caucus day on Parliament Hill and this week’s meetings must have been like no other. This time, it seems, the call is coming from inside the house.

Earlier this week, we learned that some Parliamentarians are believed to have been helping hostile foreign actors interfere in Canadian electoral affairs. MPs and Senators appear to have been willingly and knowingly working with foreign governments and actors, most notably China and India, in relationships that can benefit both the parliamentarians and the foreign governments. Information, it is alleged, has been exchanged to benefit the elected member and representatives of the foreign government. In cozy quid pro quo arrangements, vital information shared with a foreign government was supposedly traded for help from agents of that country in mobilizing its diaspora or offering other aid in electoral campaigns.

John Ivison: Behold the shattered wasteland of Liberal government credibility

The political spirit of the times under a three-term Liberal government was encapsulated in an exchange in question period earlier this week.

In response to opposition fury at the auditor general’s report into Sustainable Development Technology Canada — which found 90 violations of conflict-of-interest policies; $59 million in contracts awarded to 10 projects that were not eligible; and frequent overstatement of environmental benefits — the industry minister was animated, repeatedly in both official languages: “We are going to restore governance. We are going to restore confidence,” said François-Philippe Champagne.

Deputy Conservative leader Melissa Lantsman expressed her exasperation . “While millions eat in food banks, young people can’t buy homes, families can’t take a summer vacation, that minister is giving millions of dollars to his friends under the guise of his climate change ideology … When will anyone over there face a single consequence?”

GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau’s carbon tax makes 80% of us better off? Prove it

The Trudeau government has a simple way to bolster its claim eight out of 10 Canadian households paying the federal carbon tax end up better off financially because of quarterly climate action incentive payments.

PBO releases letter showing government provided carbon tax data for ‘internal purposes only’

The letter seemingly backs Yves Giroux’s suggestion that the government put a gag on him to not talk about its internal numbers

OTTAWA — Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault’s office sent extensive amounts of data about the federal carbon pricing’s economic impacts to the Parliamentary Budget Officer (PBO), with an explicit directive for it to be used for “internal purposes only.”

The letter sent on May 14, which is available on the PBO’s website, shows that Deputy Minister Jean-François Tremblay responded to a query from the budget watchdog’s office on April 30 requesting additional information to update its analysis of the measure.

Conservative leader calls on Liberal government to release names of MPs accused of helping foreign states

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says that Canadians have a right to know the names of the MPs accused in an explosive new intelligence report of “wittingly” working on behalf of foreign state actors.

On Monday, the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP), a cross-party committee of MPs and senators with top security clearances, released a heavily redacted document alleging some parliamentarians have actively helped foreign governments like China and India meddle in Canadian politics.

John Ivison: Freeland claimed deficits were under control. We’re now discovering the truth

Chrystia Freeland put out the bunting after her April 16th budget.

The fiscal plan had three targets or “guideposts”: keeping the deficit below $40 billion in 2023/24; lowering the debt-to-GDP ratio in the current fiscal year, compared to last fall’s financial statement; and keeping deficits below one per cent of GDP in 2026/27.

With the stroke of her pen, Freeland proclaimed victory.

“In this budget, every single one of these objectives is met,” she said.

“Never Investigate Liberals” RCMP to decide whether charges can be laid against still unnamed Traitors

NSICOP chair says it’s up to the RCMP to probe allegations of foreign interference

The chair of an intelligence review body that released an explosive report earlier this week alleging some Canadian parliamentarians “wittingly” helped foreign state actors says it’s now up to RCMP to decide whether it can pursue charges.

On Monday, the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP), a cross-party committee of MPs and senators with top security clearances, released a long-anticipated report that looked at foreign political interference in Canada.

The heavily redacted document alleges some parliamentarians have actively helped foreign governments like China and India meddle in Canadian politics.

Jesse Kline: ‘Independent’ senators give themselves cover to block Poilievre’s agenda

Talk about whether the Senate would thwart the will of the elected House whenever a change of government is expected in Ottawa is almost a right of passage in Canadian politics. And even though Prime Minister Justin Trudeau packed the upper chamber with ostensibly independent senators, the debate remains the same this time around.

TREASON SCANDAL: MPs uneasy over unnamed spies operating on Parliament Hill

MPs expressed unease Tuesday in the aftermath of the bombshell revelation there are unnamed spies reporting to foreign governments operating within the Canadian elected government.

One unnamed public office holder was suspected of “providing information learned in confidence from the government to a known intelligence officer of a foreign state,” per Blacklock’s Reporter.

Canada Begins Real Estate Developer Bail Out With 55 Year Loans

Canada’s record population growth combined with slowing new home construction might seem paradoxical at first. The Government of Canada (GoC) claims it’s because housing is “illegal” but a confidential memo sent to lenders indicates it’s an issue of leverage. The CMHC quietly notified lenders they’ll be extending the maximum amortization, or length of repayment. The developer bailout will help borrowers repay their loan over two generations, with projects at risk of default now able to extend their repayment term up to 55 years.

Canada’s failure to block forced-labour imports draws U.S. scrutiny

Canada made a promise to block imports of products made by forced labour, to keep those goods from entering this continent as part of the new North American trade agreement.

Now a U.S. senator heavily involved in the issue offers a blunt answer when asked by CBC News whether Canada is keeping that promise.

“No, not yet,” Sen. Jeff Merkley, an Oregon Democrat who co-wrote his own country’s legislation on the topic, said, followed by a dead silence.

‘Canada turned its back on Israel,’ says visiting Israeli legislator

OTTAWA — As Israel continues to both recover from and deal with the aftermath of the October 7 terror attacks, a visiting member of the country’s legislature is calling Canada out for turning its back on its longtime ally.

Sitting down with the National Post during a visit to Ottawa this week, Knesset member Sharren Haskel expressed concerns over Canada’s lack of support for Israel after the October 7 massacre.

Votes matter, nothing else comes close for Trudeau.

Leaving Canada: Housing Costs, Falling Living Standards, and Politics Prompt Outflow of Canadians

An increasing number of Canadians can’t afford a house or find a decent-paying job. Some can’t find a date or are fed up with the bitter politics, while others are in search of adventure, are sick of the cold winters, or simply miss home. The solution they seek? Leave Canada.

The rising cost of living, record-high immigration, a stagnating economy, and political tensions are prompting rising numbers of Canadians—both native and naturalized—to leave the country.

It isn’t ‘foreign interference’ if the culprits are willing MPs

Among and between each of the scandalous revelations in the 84-page report the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians released Monday, there is an unmistakable tone of exasperation, frustration, and something even approaching despair.

Scandalous is not too strong a word to describe what the report reveals, which is a state of affairs that calls into question whether the term “foreign interference” gets at the dilemma that has transfixed Canada since November 2022, or whether what this report discloses is evidence of collusion between leading Canadian politicians and hostile foreign powers.

90 Cases of Conflict of Interest: AG Finds ‘Significant Lapses’ in Governance at Trudeau Green Fund

The federal auditor general has found 90 conflict of interest rule breaches and money going to dozens of ineligible projects in her review of the embattled federal green fund.

Auditor General Karen Hogan released three reports on June 4, one of which pertains to Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC), a federal foundation supporting green projects with investments.

The Office of the Auditor General (OAG) says it found “significant lapses” in the governance and stewardship of public funds at SDTC.
