Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government
Another Liberal minister contracted foodie firm with ties to senior staffer
A second Liberal minister gave thousands in contracts to a foodie firm with family ties to a senior staffer in Housing Minister Ahmed Hussen’s office, Global News has learned.
Marci Ien, the minister of women and gender equality, gave $10,000 in constituency contracts to Munch More Media, a Toronto-based public relations firm specializing in promoting the restaurant and food services industry.
Corporate Canada has been protected from competition for too long. It’s time to put consumers first
Maybe you saw that report by the CBC’s Marketplace the other day on the cost of wireless telephone service in Canada. If so, maybe your fists have not yet unclenched from the little balls of rage that formed as you watched.
Quoting a recent study by the Finnish research firm Rewheel, the report found the cost per gigabyte of wireless data transmission in Canada is “seven times more expensive than Australia, 25 times more than Ireland and France, and 1,000 times more than Finland.”
John Ivison: The $15 billion experiment Ottawa can’t afford to mess up
OTTAWA — The old joke is that at roll call, senators don’t know whether to shout “present” or “not guilty.” Very little happens in that sleepy sinecure that reaches the outside world.
Yet over Christmas, a clip from the Senate finance committee started circulating of Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland being grilled by Conservative Sen. Elizabeth Marshall, a former provincial auditor general in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Hussen’s office gave $93k in PR work to senior staffer’s sister’s foodie firm
Housing Minister Ahmed Hussen’s office admitted Thursday night that his senior staffer is the sister of the director of a foodie communications firm that received $93,050 in constituency funds.
Hussen’s office confirmed that his director of policy, Tia Tariq, is sisters with Hiba Tariq, the director of Munch More Media, the company that has been receiving lucrative contracts to help the York South—Weston MP reach out to constituents.
I have never seen a government that has the unmitigated hatred and contempt of it citizens as Trudeau’s Liberals.
Someone tell Trudeau: For the rest of the world, energy security, not climate change, is now paramount
Energy is now about security
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, energy security has replaced climate change as most countries’ number one concern, especially the countries we count as friends and allies. No matter how much Justin Trudeau may long for it, the world is not going back to the kumbaya days of the Kyoto and Paris climate accords.
Trudeau is not fit to be in charge of anything beyond costume selection. Canada is becoming an economic basket case thanks to Junior’s Greta envy.
Trudeau denies natural gas to another ally in favour of fictive agenda
Trudeau’s natural gas snubbing of Japan and Germany is really bad policy for Canadians
Having shown Germany the back of his hand in August when Chancellor Olaf Scholz asked to buy some of Canada’s abundant natural gas, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau repeated the performance only two weeks into 2023 — this time snubbing the people of Japan.
Trudeau views the world much like a not very bright teenager. Magic thinking is no way to run a country. Canadians will pay and pay and pay for this madness.
Hussen spent $93k constituency funds on PR help from foodie firm Munch More Media
Housing Minister Ahmed Hussen used $93,050 in constituency funds for public relations help from a foodie communications firm with a connection to a former senior staffer, public records show.
House of Commons rules permit MPs to use constituency funds for professional communications work, but Hussen is one of just a handful of cabinet ministers who spent a significant amount on public relations contracts over the past three years.
Because Canada needed an MP for Mogadishu.
Chinese Consulate Asked BC to Surrender Chinese Drivers’ Licences to Vancouver-Based NGO
The Chinese Consulate in Vancouver asked the province in 2014 to give to a Vancouver-based NGO the driver’s licences of Chinese nationals who had surrendered them in exchange for B.C. licences, according to internal government documents.
The revelation comes amid heightened scrutiny of China’s overseas operations after reports emerged that the communist regime is operating unofficial police service stations abroad.
Singh may complain but he’s sticking by Trudeau in coalition of the clueless
The NDP, meeting in Ottawa, say they will hold the Trudeau Liberals to account. Quick, tell me another one before I stop laughing!
He believes his own Bullshit … NDP leader says Liberal government is waging war against the working class
Federal committee will probe government contracts with McKinsey
OTTAWA – A federal committee overseeing government operations is launching a parliamentary inquiry into contracts awarded to consulting firm McKinsey & Company.
The firm recently came into the spotlight after news reports highlighted the rapid growth of the company’s work with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government.
The government says it has awarded 23 contracts to McKinsey since 2015 that are together worth $101.4 million.
Rex Murphy: Liberals’ ‘just transition’ a fist to the mouth of Canada
What’s really, finally, at the heart of radical environmentalism?
An insatiable urge, an unslakeable lust to govern the lives, habits and choices of everyone — everyone — who does not think like them, who chooses not to see the world as they prefer them to see it, who questions their furious dogmas and resists their sprawling imperatives into every corner of every person’s real life.
They’ve ‘outdone even their wildest dreams’: Canadian billionaires saw wealth jump 51% during pandemic
While many Canadians struggled and saw their financial health deteriorate during the pandemic, the rich got richer.
A new report by Britain’s Oxfam International found that Canadian billionaires saw their wealth grow by a staggering 51 per cent since the pandemic began.
“This accelerated a trend that was already driving wealth inequality in Canada over the past decade,” Oxfam Canada reported.
Bearing in mind that this is a report from the very rapey folks at Oxfam there is no question we are in a new era of the Robber Baron.
Canada is looking more like a crony capitalist kleptocracy every day under Junior.
Quebec taking dwindling share of immigrants to Canada, according to new data
OTTAWA – Quebec is taking a dwindling share of Canada’s new immigrants, and significantly less than its proportional national share, as it maintains tight caps on newcomers, even as the Trudeau government continues to open the floodgates to more immigration nationally.
… But Quebec brought in 68,820 people, roughly 15.7 per cent of the immigrants to Canada, despite the province representing nearly 23 per cent of Canada’s population.
By contrast, Ontario took 184,000 newcomers in 2022, 42 per cent of the total who came to Canada, even though Ontario represents 38 per cent of Canada’s population. And British Columbia welcomed more than 61,000 people, almost as many as Quebec did, despite B.C. having a population that is 3.5-million people fewer than Quebec.
The government is never your friend but in Canada they are an outright enemy. Canada’s immigration policy is designed to benefit the Corporate class.
That you and your family may suffer due to shortages in housing, medical care and economic insecurity is brushed aside assuming it was even taken into consideration.
Our mainstream political parties, the LPC, CPC and NDP are all in on the scam hoping to harvest ethnic vote blocs.
The Liberals outsourced Canada’s immigration policy to Dominic Barton and McKinsey & Company.
They just don’t care about you or the havoc mass immigration has on our society.
Quebec noticed. Good for them.
Zeihan’s comments on Canadian immigration are interesting, basically we’re probably fecked.
GUNTER: Don’t believe promises of ‘well-paying jobs’ from Trudeau’s Just Transition plan
Well, here’s some good news from the federal Liberal government and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson. If you’re an energy-sector worker who was laid off by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s upcoming Just Transition program, you can always get a job as a “janitor” or a delivery driver.
