Commie Lunatic Guilbeault vows to destroy oil sector

Suncor’s revised focus on oil production proof of need for emissions cap: Guilbeault

OTTAWA – Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says he is more convinced than ever of the need to regulate emissions in the oil and gas industry, following a prominent CEO’s comments about refocusing his company on oil production.

Suncor CEO Rich Kruger told investors in a conference call on Aug. 15 that the company had a “disproportionate” focus on the longer-term energy transition to low-emitting and renewable fuels.

Everything the Trudeau government does is a threat to our physical and economic security.

China has been using a Trudeau government funded Canadian think tank to bolster its green image for the last 4 years, critics say

China is using Canadian think tank to fund and bolster its green image, critics say

Funded by the federal government, a Canadian think tank has for four years been acting as the international secretariat for a Chinese environmental agency headed by one of Beijing’s most powerful Communist Party leaders.

Its little-known role adds to an unusual, longstanding and controversial collaboration between Canada and the Chinese government-founded agency. Touted as an advisory body for policy makers in Beijing, the council is accused by critics of being part of China’s vast global influence machine.

$133 Million Climate-Change Program Failed to Reduce Diesel Emissions in Canada’s North

A $133.7 million climate-change program failed to reduce diesel emissions in Canada’s northern communities, but did result in “trusting and respectful relationships” with indigenous people, according to the Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations.

Trudeau says you should live in crappy boxes stacked high

Trudeau says ‘densification’ is key to fix housing crisis. Is it enough?

When Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet went into a huddle at this year’s cabinet retreat in Charlottetown, it was clear that housing was top of mind. When Trudeau emerged from the retreat last week, he told reporters some of the measures Canada most needs.

Among those was the need for densification, a growing topic dominating conversations at the municipal, provincial and federal levels.

Is the game up for Justin Trudeau?

In the dog days of summer, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Liberal government are skating on thin ice once more.

An August 18-23 national survey by Abacus Data of 2,189 adults revealed that 56 per cent of respondents believed he ‘should step down’ rather than run again for re-election. Only 27 per cent felt he should stay, and 17 per cent were unsure.

This number is in line with recent polling data in Canada. Pierre Poilievre and the opposition Conservatives have led in almost every opinion poll conducted since he became party leader on September 10, 2022. Moreover, the federal government has largely slipped into the 26-29 per cent range in national popularity – and, in several cases, is behind by either close to or above double digits. In the most recent example, the Conservatives lead the Liberals by 38-26 per cent in an August 23 poll by Abacus Data.

ChiCom infiltrators posing as students frustrated by lengthy security checks as school year nears

Some Chinese international students say their study permits have been tied up in security screenings, leaving them in the lurch for months after being admitted to Canadian universities.

Yunze Lu, a master’s student in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Ottawa, has already completed a year of coursework online and successfully applied to the school’s co-op program.

“I have a very simple and clear background. It’s OK to be checked, but I don’t think it needs to be checked for so long,” he said.

Climate Stupidity Canadian Style

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau doubles down on carbon taxes, hammering Canadian farms and raising prices for everyone.

Competition is high between nations to see who can implement the silliest climate policies. President Biden is far in the lead, but other nations want to catch up.

Please consider Destroying Canada’s Farms, for What?

High-level judges may have paid to meet Trudeau before their appointments

At least six current superior court justices may have paid to meet with the prime minister or the deputy prime minister at Liberal Party fundraisers shortly before being appointed.

These findings come in the wake of an earlier analysis by the National Post and the Investigative Journalism Foundation (IJF), which found that over three times as many Liberal party donors have been appointed to judicial office than Conservative donors since 2016.

More proof carbon taxes make life more expensive

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claims he’s “making life more affordable” but his own government agencies continue to prove his carbon tax makes life more expensive.

“Nova Scotians saw prices at the pump increase by 14% in July compared with June,” Statistics Canada reported . “The introduction of the federal carbon levy in the province and higher wholesale prices contributed to higher gasoline prices.”

It’s not just Statistics Canada. Canada Revenue Agency shows the carbon tax currently increases the price of gasoline by 14¢ per litre, the price of diesel and home heating oil by 17¢ per litre and the price of natural gas by 12¢ per cubic metre.

GOLDSTEIN: Liberals talk tough on climate change – but not to China

Lunatic

While Prime Minister Justin Trudeau rags the puck on holding a public inquiry on China’s interference into Canadian democracy, which he’s never wanted, Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault is in China seeking its cooperation on climate change.

Guilbeault’s trip isn’t surprising – U.S. climate envoy John Kerry was in Beijing last month seeking the same thing – nor will it will result in any breakthroughs.

This is what happens when Justin Trudeau neglects issues that really matter to Canadians

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau acknowledged this week that: “It’s not an easy time to be a politician.” He wasn’t referring to fears for his — and others’ — safety, rather he was responding to the backlash he and his government have received from Canadians angry with the Liberals’ outlook, their actions, or lack of actions, on several files.

Some of that outrage is misplaced, spurred by misinformation and opposition rhetoric. This month, in P.E.I., for example, I got an earful from a taxi driver in Montague, upset with Trudeau for “wanting to take all our guns away” and “funding wars overseas” (wars in plural).
