Dominic LeBlanc wants his close friend Justin Trudeau’s job

Behind the scenes, the plot thickens in regards to the future leadership of the Liberal Party. We need only to consider what Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc, a very close friend of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is up to.

A former Liberal cabinet minister met with Mr. LeBlanc recently and they discussed plans, I’m told, for Mr. LeBlanc to run to succeed Mr. Trudeau as party leader and become prime minister, should he step down.

Is this more than just wishful thinking?

Will Trudeau run in next election? Mulcair says no

Housing plans’ impact on Canada’s fertility rate would strain economy, increase social tensions

Modern apartment living.

The federal government’s new budget is largely dedicated to building more homes, faster, so that young workers can afford to own one. The Conservative housing plan claims to do the same, only better.

There is one problem: These plans would further force down Canada’s fertility rate, straining our economy and increasing social tensions.

Here’s what a ‘fairness for every generation’ budget would have actually included

Canada’s “Fairness For Every Generation” budget was quite clearly designed to promote the perception of fairness, rather than its realization. It’s a marketing document, as federal budgets are, through which a government with a certain degree of gall can claim that “it would be irresponsible and unfair to pass on more debt to the next generations,” while also introducing $52.9-billion in new spending, with the cost to service the national debt ($54.1-billion) now surpassing health transfers to the provinces ($52.1-billion).

Despite best efforts, Justin Trudeau can’t direct attention away from the carbon tax

Governments often use budgets to change the channel from what their opponents want to talk about to what they want to talk about.

The Trudeau government is no exception. It clearly hopes this week’s federal budget will dampen all the negative chatter about carbon pricing and get people focused on the great plans it has for solving the housing crisis and making life “fairer” for young Canadians.

But here’s a snag: changing the channel is a lot harder when your buddy on the couch grabs the remote and insists on switching back to the programming you want to get away from.

Trudeau has a solution to the housing crisis he created? Bullshit.

Lunatic Guilbeault to force banks to call carbon rebate a carbon rebate in direct deposits

OTTAWA – Canadian banks that refuse to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits are forcing the government to change the law to make them do it, says Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault.

Guilbeault is taking the stand after Tuesday’s federal budget promised to amend the Financial Administration Act so government payments accepted for deposit at Canadian banks will carry whatever title the government wants.

John Ivison: The blowback to Trudeau’s investment tax hike could be bigger than he thinks

“99.87 per cent of Canadians will not pay a cent more,” the prime minister said this week, in reference to the budget announcement that his government will raise the inclusion rate on capital gains tax in June.

The move will be limited to 40,000 wealthy taxpayers. “We’re going to make them pay a little bit more,” Justin Trudeau said.

But it’s hard to see how that number can be true when the budget document also says 307,000 corporations will also be caught in the dragnet that raises the inclusion rate on capital gains to 66 per cent from 50 per cent.

Minister Says He Was Taken Aback After Learning Deadly Viruses Were Shipped From Winnipeg Lab to Wuhan

After learning that samples of deadly Ebola and Nipah viruses had been sent from Canada’s top-security lab in Winnipeg to China, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc said his reaction was similar to that of an MP who expressed incredulity upon learning of the move.

“I’m really concerned about the March 2019 incident where [Winnipeg lab scientists Xiangguo Qiu and Keding Cheng] were implicated in a shipment of live Ebola in Hanipah [Nipah] viruses on a commercial Air Canada flight. How the hell did that happen?” NDP MP Charlie Angus asked during a House of Commons Canada-China committee meeting on April 15.

Recent immigrants think Canada’s immigration targets are too high, prefer Tories to Liberals: poll

Among people who immigrated to Canada in the last decade, more think Canada’s latest immigration targets will bring in too many people, a newly released Leger poll suggests, while fewer recent newcomers think the plan will bring in the right amount of people or not enough.

Jamie Sarkonak: Liberals, again, use federal budget to advance demographic favoritism

Public spending should support the general public. But in Budget 2024, released Tuesday, the Liberals continued to opt for identity-based programs narrowly targeted to demographics of preference.

On affirmative action, the budget heralded the expansion of the Employment Equity Act, which currently sets employment “targets” for women, visible minorities, Indigenous people and the disabled in the federal public sector. In the fall, Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan announced that Black people and LGBT people will each get their own target (quota), so this isn’t new, but we can still expect it coming down the pipeline.

Trudeau’s use of Emergencies Act has cost taxpayers $73 million thus far

The Liberal government’s use of the Emergencies Act against the 2022 Freedom Convoy has cost Canadian taxpayers over $73 million thus far.

According to newly released records obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s enactment of the Emergencies Act, the use of which has since been ruled “not justified” by a federal court, to drive out Freedom Convoy protestors from Ottawa in 2022, cost the Department of Public Safety $73,550,568.

Anger, pessimism towards federal government reach six-year high: Nanos survey

Most Canadians in March reported feeling angry or pessimistic towards the federal government than at any point in the last six years, according to a survey by Nanos Research(opens in a new tab).

Nanos has been measuring Canadians’ feelings of optimism, satisfaction, disinterest, anger, pessimism and uncertainty toward the federal government since November 2018.

The latest survey found that optimism had crept up slightly to 10 per cent since hitting an all-time low of eight per cent in September 2023.

CHARLEBOIS: The Trudeau paradox of more spending and more hunger

There are numerous metrics to gauge a nation’s wealth, and one revealing measure is how much its citizens spend on food relative to their disposable income.

The Trudeau government has expressed a commitment to aid the impoverished and disadvantaged. However, new data from Statistics Canada indicates that, since the onset of the pandemic four years ago, their plight has worsened rather than improved.

Joel Kotkin: Aggressive Canadian progressivism is descending the country into crazy

Like most Americans, I always tended to believe Canada was our more sensible, if less intense, neighbour. It was a country that respected liberal traditions derived originally from England, embracing values such as free speech and assembly along with tolerance for opposing views.

This is no longer the case. As authoritarian regimes are expanding all around the world, notes Freedom House, Canada and other western nations seem to be tilting in that awful direction. Some Canadians may fear the future of democracy under a new Donald Trump administration in the United States, but they would do well to look closer to home.
