Mark Carney’s Pseudo-Faith-Based War on CO2

The Canadian prime minister invokes the language of faith to silence critics of Net Zero policies.

Tariffs delivered a big blow to Canada’s economy this year, but they would be less of a problem if Canada weren’t squandering billions of dollars on Net Zero, which will not stop climate change.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Budget 2025 passed first reading on Nov. 18 by a vote of 170-168, which spared Canadians a snap election. The second reading is in progress, and as of Nov. 28, the third reading had not yet been scheduled.

MP outraged after man who raped an Ontario girl given time to consider how guilty plea would affect immigration status

A leading Conservative MP is calling for change after the accused rapist of a 13-year-old Ontario girl was given time to weigh how a guilty plea would affect his immigration status.

The case involves a 47-year-old Bradford resident, and non-citizen, who pleaded guilty last week to “two counts of sexual interference, one charge of child luring and another to breaching his release conditions,” local news outlet BarrieToday reported.

Alberta energy deal was ‘the last straw,’ says Guilbeault after cabinet resignation

Canada will not be able to achieve the climate change targets it has set given recent decisions by Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government, warns former Liberal minister Steven Guilbeault.

Speaking on Radio-Canada’s Tout le monde en parle, Guilbeault said recent decisions by Carney’s government, such as last week’s memorandum of understanding with Alberta, will make reaching the targets impossible.

“Prime Minister Carney has a different view from mine on this,” he said during the show which aired Sunday evening.

So long eco-wanker!

HUNTER: Gun-toting Trudeau Tourist atop extortion racket given bail

Somewhere in the sewer that is the Canadian justice system, someone thought it a grand idea to spring Trudeau Tourist Bandhumaan Sekhon.

That he was the recipient of the largesse at a Peel Region courthouse should come as no surprise. The region northwest of Toronto has become the favoured dumping ground for a small army of woke, wildly unqualified judges.

Problem with our feminist foreign policy was that we never really had a feminist foreign policy, we just called it that

TORONTO—It seems like a million years ago now, but do you remember the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership? It was signed between Canada and some Pacific nations plus the United Kingdom way back in that long-ago time of 2018. I remember being amused by it—not because of what was in the deal, but because of some of the reporting that emerged around the negotiations. Apparently, some of the other nations were irritated that the Canadian delegation insisted on inserting the word “progressive” into the title. It felt performative, tacked on, and kind of meaningless.

Nearly half of immigrants say temporary foreign workers fill the jobs Canadians don’t want: OMNI-Leger poll

Diana Donat looks at the construction site where her house once stood, across the street from her restaurant.

She’s not sure whether some of the construction workers she sees are here on temporary visas.

“I think some of them are. The ones that are helping the contractors.”


Bullshit. There is no labour shortage.

Canada’s business community simply prefers low wage foreign labour to employing citizens.

Canada clinches deal to join Europe’s €150B defense scheme

Canada has reached a final agreement to join the EU’s €150 billion Security Action for Europe program, two EU diplomats told POLITICO, marking the first time a third country will formally participate in the bloc’s flagship joint procurement initiative.

The breakthrough follows months of technically complex negotiations and was communicated directly to ministers taking part in Monday’s Foreign Affairs Council; Defense Commissioner Andrius Kubilius informed delegations that negotiations with Ottawa had concluded.


Who would come to our aid if invaded even if the motive was pure self interest? The EU? The USA?

Why Canada risks Trump’s ire if it chooses Gripen gamesmanship over F-35 stealth

Canada Recycles to save on military expenditures – The Sherman Air Superiority Ground Attack Tank Thingy

WASHINGTON, D.C. — It’s a high-flying tale of carrots, sticks and political flip-flops.

American leaders have been urging Canada to boost its military spending and NATO contributions since the alliance’s founding, back in 1949. Some, like former U.S. president Barack Obama, have been polite about it, encouraging Ottawa that “the world needs more Canada,” while others, especially U.S. President Donald Trump, have been more blunt, referring to Canadians as “freeloaders” who are “delinquent” on military contributions.

Liberal deal with Bloc means hate-speech laws will lose exemption for ‘sincerely held’ religious belief

OTTAWA — The Liberals have agreed to remove religious exemptions from Canada’s hate-speech laws to secure Bloc Québécois support to help pass its bill targeting hate and terror symbols, National Post has learned through a source close to the talks.

Currently, the law exempts hateful or antisemitic speech if it based in good faith on the interpretation of a religious text, but that immunity is set to be removed. Additionally, the Liberals are expected to back off plans to eliminate the need for a provincial attorney general’s sign-off to pursue a hate-propaganda prosecution.


Fearless Prediction: Christians will bear the overwhelming brunt of prosecutions and Islamists will face few if any.

Environment minister disputes Guilbeault’s claim that Canada is cutting climate policies

Environment and Climate Change Minister Julie Dabrusin is pushing back against claims from Steven Guilbeault, who resigned from cabinet this week over Ottawa’s memorandum of understanding with Alberta and said Canada is dismantling several pieces of its climate plan.

“I really respectfully disagree with [Guilbeault] on his characterization of this memorandum of understanding,” Dabrusin said in an interview on CBC’s Rosemary Barton Live. “I don’t see it as backsliding, and I don’t see it as cancelling programs.”

Alberta to Bar Police From Enforcing Federal Gun Buyback

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her government will table a motion next week under the Alberta Sovereignty Act that would instruct all provincial entities to refuse to enforce or prosecute matters under the federal gun buyback program.

Smith made the comments on Nov. 29 during a keynote address at her United Conservative Party’s annual convention, where she outlined her government’s priorities and next steps. She said the proposed motion would apply to all provincial entities, including municipalities and law-enforcement agencies, and would include provisions to prevent them from prosecuting Albertans “defending their homes and families from intruders.”

Carney government leans on ‘rounding difference’ to claim NATO spending target

The Carney government may meet its NATO defence promise this year only by relying on a “rounding difference,” according to the Parliamentary Budget Office, raising fresh doubts about Ottawa’s claims it is hitting key military spending goals.

Appearing before the Senate national finance committee, Interim Budget Officer Jason Jacques said Canada is only “close” to the NATO benchmark of spending 2% of GDP on defence by December 31 — a target Prime Minister Mark Carney has repeatedly touted as a done deal.

It should be obvious by now that the world order that has sustained prosperity in the northern hemisphere in a mostly uninterrupted epoch of peace over the past 80 years is dramatically unravelling. It just might take a while yet before we can definitively pinpoint the moment or the event that caused everything to finally fall apart.

Do Mark Carney’s pipeline politics change the calculus of future confidence votes?

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s agreement with Alberta toward a new oil pipeline to the Pacific coast has angered the few opposition MPs who saved his Liberal government from falling in a recent confidence vote, increasing the prospect of a snap election.

On Thursday, Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that outlined the conditions needed for Ottawa to back a new pipeline proposal, which included strengthening the province’s industrial carbon pricing system and supporting a carbon capture and storage project advanced by the Pathways Alliance — a consortium of Canada’s six largest oilsands companies.

In exchange, the federal government will scrap the long-promised oil and gas emissions cap, and exempt Alberta from regulations pressing provinces to decarbonize their electricity grid.

Advocates fear Liberals have abandoned election pledges on animal welfare

My brothers, well 3 of them. I am the youngest. Two more to follow. No date and I don’t recognize the location or the kitten.

MPs and animal-welfare groups fear the federal government has put on hold an election promise to bring forward bills designed to alleviate animal suffering, and that they are no longer a priority for Prime Minister Mark Carney.

The Liberals promised to bring forward two animal welfare bills if they won the election: One to ban the export of live horses overseas for slaughter, and a second to outlaw elephants and great apes in zoos and circuses. But neither bill has been introduced since Mr. Carney’s election win.


The Liberal Party Hates Kittens and Puppies.
