A top foreign affairs official says China’s history of lashing out means that “sensitive matters” in a long-running espionage case before Canada’s courts should be kept away from public discussion.
Federal prosecutors are seeking to seal documents and close coming courtroom hearings in the criminal case of Qing Quentin Huang, an Ontario shipbuilder who was charged in 2013 with violating the Security of Information Act by allegedly trying to communicate Canadian naval secrets to China.
Information about Canada’s winter survival military training with China has been in the public sphere for some years but only drew heightened attention after recent media coverage.
A February 2018 tweet by the Canadian Army shows Canadian soldiers participating in winter training in China with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), and Canada extending an invitation to China to take part in the same training in Petawawa, Ont., at a future date. Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan said during question period on Dec. 10 that the engagement was part of a cooperation initiative signed with China back in 2013.
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says one of the top priorities for the next commander of the Canadian Armed Forces will be tackling systemic racism and rooting extremism from the ranks.
The comments are the first from the prime minister since Gen. Jonathan Vance announced in July that he was preparing to step down after more than five years as Canada’s chief of the defence staff.
This feels a lot like Obama's office of the CVE, which Trump ended. The idea was to relabel patriots as extremists, and people ready to fight for country as Violent Extremists to be Countered.https://t.co/bJAwIO4Syt

This has nothing to do with racism but it does outline the extremist views of the Lib-Left and their determined effort to degrade Canada’s military and destroy it as an institution.
Quick, without using Google, name the superintendent of Financial Institutions. Can you do it? Could you name the president of the Public Service Commission?
You should know their names because they are among the most important public servants in Canada, among the 53 bureaucrats in Ottawa given a full-time car and driver. That’s right, they and many others, have a chauffeur on standby to shuttle them around Ottawa.
We are ruled over not governed by a corrupt, entitled permanent political class.
Last week, the Canadian government refused to tell the public whether it had granted legal immunity to COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers. Health Canada said it couldn’t release “details of its contracts due to confidentiality clauses.”
On Monday, this changed. A cabinet minister has now acknowledged that pharmaceutical companies will be protected from lawsuits in the event that Canadians are harmed.
In Ayn Rand’s most famous novel, Atlas Shrugged, thinkers and producers responded to a world of strangling state control by going on strike. As an ever hungrier government crushed enterprise while growing into an unsustainable size, producers vanished to a fictional hidden retreat called “Galt’s Gulch” where genuinely free commerce could be practiced.
In today’s world of growing state control, Alberta has the potential to become Canada’s “Galt’s Gulch”.
Announcing his new plan for getting to net-zero on carbon emissions, Justin Trudeau told Canadians: “If we trust scientists with our health, as we do, then we must also trust their research and their expertise when it comes to other existential threats. And that includes climate change. There is no vaccine against a polluted planet. It’s up to us to act. Because there is a real cost to pollution. We’re paying the price already with record storms, wildfires, floods, and heat waves, which all carry real economic costs and real risks to our health. We chose to get straight to work on cutting pollution.”
We should indeed trust scientific research and expertise, and above all data. But so far, data shows no such existential threats due to climate change.
PM invites China’s army for “cold weather training” in Canada – while China holds Canadians captive.
December 10 marked two years since China’s Communist regime seized Canadians Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor. “These two Canadians are an absolute priority for our government,” Canadian foreign minister Francois-Philippe Champagne told reporters, “and we will continue to work tirelessly to secure their immediate release and to stand up for them as a government and as Canadians.” According to another story that broke last week, the government’s true priority is to ignore the captives and stand up for China.
There used to be a term for a person who believes capitulation is the best way to negotiate with a bullying foreign government: Appeaser.
It’s time to revive that term and apply it to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his dealings with the Communist Party of China (CPC).
Speaking during question period, Senator Marc Gold said the carbon tax hike is the best way to protect the environment.
Justin Trudeau waited until the House of Commons adjourned for Christmas before announcing a plan to increase the federal carbon tax by 240 per cent and spend $15 billion on greenhouse gas reduction measures.
The evasive manoeuvre may have undermined the opposition parties but it has not pacified pockets of simmering resentment across the country.
A troop of Chinese nationals are training to become pilots at a decommissioned Canadian military base near Red Deer, Alberta. After receiving several tips suggesting that China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) was actively training military personnel at the former CFB Penhold, Rebel News visited the location to investigate.
The Pepper Wok restaurant may never be a sensation for purely culinary reasons.
It is a modest establishment tucked into a suburban plaza north of Toronto, serving traditional specialties like Hainan Chicken.
Viva f#cking diversity. I bet the Perps are all LPC members.
The problem with “The Great Reset” as espoused by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the United Nations and the World Economic Forum is not that it’s a conspiracy or a blueprint for dictatorship.
To the contrary, they’re telling us exactly what they want to do.
OTTAWA: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he will leverage COVID-19 recovery to implement a more ambitious anti-global warming plan. Trudeau made the announcement in a pre-recorded video released on December 12 to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the UN Paris Climate Accord.
The anniversary was marked by a virtual global “Climate Ambition Summit”, hosted by the United Nations, Britain and France.
