David Knight Legg: Chrystia Freeland — our soft-on-terror deputy PM

On Jan. 8, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland evaded a question about why Canada hasn’t designated the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IGRC) as a terrorist organization. The question was being asked on the fourth anniversary of the IRGC’s murder of 55 Canadians aboard Flight PS752, and in the middle of a war the IRGC is facilitating across the Middle East. Before the journalist could ask again, he was arrested, which was caught on film and quickly became an international incident with millions of views.

Amid confusion from Canadians, Trudeau’s government is considering rebrand of carbon pricing: source

OTTAWA—The federal government is considering a rebrand of the rebate program for its carbon pricing system in an attempt to tackle what it calls confusion and misconceptions about the scheme, the Star has learned.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have admitted they are losing the communications battle over carbon pricing in the face of a campaign from Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives to undermine the government’s flagship climate policy.

Why is Canada so vulnerable to foreign meddling?

Any strong words Trudeau may mouth about China are to be taken with a very large grain of salt.

The allegations kept mounting in Canada: Election-meddling by China, an Indian-backed assassination on home soil, and a campaign to harass Iranian dissidents. Is Canada especially vulnerable to foreign interference?

Michael Chong said it did not take long for him to become a target of Beijing.

In testimony before US lawmakers on Capitol Hill last year, the Canadian Conservative politician described how an alleged intimidation campaign against him was born after he spoke out against China’s human rights record in parliament.

How Canadian Universities Collaborated With Chinese Institutes Now Declared a Risk

Before Canada’s recent designation of 85 Chinese academic institutions as potential threats to national security, several Canadian universities had engaged in extensive interactions with some of those institutions.

The list of Named Research Organizations released Jan. 16 is part of Ottawa’s Policy on Sensitive Technology Research and Affiliations of Concern, introduced to bolster Canadian universities’ research security.

Iran’s growing influence may be missed as inquiry begins, experts warn

Trudeau’s brother Alexandre worked for Iran.

The highly anticipated public inquiry into foreign election interference is set to begin Monday, examining how countries like China, Russia and India may have tried to meddle in Canadian democracy.

But some national security experts warn Iran’s growing influence may be missed, despite how far the regime has “spread its tentacles” in Canada.

Justin Trudeau is stuck in his own Rolling Stones moment

There’s a weekend now ensconced in Liberal lore that happened in 2012, when Justin Trudeau was a second-term MP contemplating a run for the Liberal leadership. He had gotten beyond whispering about the idea with his closest advisers, Gerald Butts and Katie Telford, and gathered a broader group of friends and helpers – together with their families and his own – at some rented cottages in Mont Tremblant.

Justin Trudeau ripped for smug response to pricey vacation question: ‘He is laughing at us’

Days after Globe and Mail reporter Marieke Walsh asked Justin Trudeau about the optics of accepting a pricey holiday vacation as many Canadians struggle to put food on the table, the Canadian prime minister is still being jeered online for his robotic response in which he defended his decision to accept a free Jamaican getaway.

There Must Be Some Redress for the Emergencies Act Mistake

Justin Trudeau and Chrystia Freeland tried to make Freedom Convoy participants into villains. Whenever they spoke about the convoy, during those fateful days in January 2022, they did their best to twist the facts and make the protesters look terrible. But by invoking the heavy-handed Emergencies Act, they instead made the convoy members the victims of government overreach.

Liberals think Donald Trump comparisons hurt Pierre Poilievre. Canadians aren’t so sure they’re the same, poll suggests

A new Abacus Data poll suggests that many voters don’t see similarities between the former president and the Conservative leader.

OTTAWA — It was an attack ad that had Liberals buzzing: video clips of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s comments juxtaposed with those of former U.S. president Donald Trump.

It wasn’t meant as a compliment: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made no secret of the fact he views Trump as a risk to Canada and thinks Poilievre is cut from the same cloth.

The Liberals are unable to run on their dismal record so their media has been told to go the “Worse than Hitler” route.

Are Canadians still willing to give Justin Trudeau a second look asks hallucinatory CBC?

Whatever Ken McDonald, the Liberal MP for Avalon, said or meant to say about Justin Trudeau’s leadership, the most cutting assessment of the prime minister published this week might have come from Jeanette Dyke, a patron of Tiny’s Bar and Grill in Paradise, N.L.

“I just cannot take Justin Trudeau anymore,” she told Radio-Canada. “He has charisma … but to me he’s annoying.”

Those comments speak to the most basic challenge of political leadership. The TV cameras that watch politicians daily magnify every facet and quirk of their personalities. And like a houseguest — one who can be blamed for every grievance about the economy, or the real estate market, or the price of gas — a political leader’s odds of overstaying their welcome grow with each passing day.

This article by CBC paints Canadians as shallow idiots who no longer like Justin Trudeau’s hair hence their enduring disdain for the PM.

CBC hints socks and selfies may yet resurrect Trudeau’s political fortunes and in the process protect their paychecks.

Only superficial references are made to the economic ruin his asinine high-school quality policies have caused Canadians.

CBC’s reputation is irreparably harmed and needs to be defunded.

Jagmeet Singh has a problem: ‘If the NDP are supporting the Liberals, I can’t support the NDP’

EDMONTON—On the surface, it was a dream canvassing scenario.

As the NDP’s Jagmeet Singh and a group of MPs and supporters knocked on doors in the highly sought-after riding of Edmonton Centre, a middle-aged man and his young adult son spotted the leader from afar and hurried across a strip mall parking lot to say hello.

… “Unfortunately, I just think the country, in the state it’s in right now, means I can’t support the Liberals,” he told the Star.

“And if the NDP are supporting the Liberals, I can’t support the NDP either.”

Canada takes no clear position on ICJ interim ruling in Gaza genocide case

Canada will continue to closely follow the case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said Friday following an interim ruling that ordered Israel to do all it can to prevent death, destruction and any acts of genocide in Gaza.

The ruling did not order a ceasefire. It also called on Hamas to release hostages taken in its deadly Oct. 7 attack on Israel and represents a closely watched step in a legal process that could take years to fully play out.

The Liberal government must stop using tax policy as a behavioural-influence tool

The current federal government has embraced an activist approach to tax policy, using it as a social engineering tool to influence behaviour and advance the Liberals’ progressive agenda. But the downsides of this interventionist strategy to our tax system are becoming increasingly apparent.

Ottawa’s approach has resulted in confounding complexity, rising compliance and administrative burdens, and a global view that Canada is not a very welcoming place to do business. We should instead pursue tax reforms that improve our business climate and make this country a more compelling destination for investment.
