Did Ottawa meddle with an RCMP murder probe? ‘There’s a whole lot of smoke here’

Did the federal government interfere in the police investigation of the deadliest shooting in Canadian history?

That’s the central question that will be at the heart of a much-anticipated probe on Monday, looking at allegations of pressure on the RCMP during its investigation of the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shooting.

The House of Commons standing committee on public safety will be hearing from RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki and Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair, as well as current and former top RCMP officials from Nova Scotia.

Catalano Travelers: The Canadian Ruling Elite

When I survey the current roster of those who have been empowered to govern Canada, it is hard to avoid the onset of severe depression. None are serious people, none even remotely competent, all are driven by the ideological drivel of the day, and they are to a man and woman decoupled from the ordinary folk who make — or made — this country run.

Moreover, beginning with the prime minister and descending to the least member of cabinet, these are people who seem to have no idea what real work and economic survival consist of. Passing legislation on climate change, health policies, agriculture, energy, and supply-and-manufacturing sectors that almost inevitably tend to harm the prospects of the actual people affected while the legislators themselves are protected from the ravages of their virtue comprises the trademark of the parasitic class, which disqualifies the present bunch from serving in their official capacity. (It is only fair to mention parenthetically an astronaut and a hockey goaltender, but neither now serves in cabinet, and neither was especially distinguished.)

Gwyn Morgan: The disastrous consequences of the green movement

Action: Seventeen Canadian Liquified Natural Gas projects that would have eliminated the need for Germany to import Russian gas were stymied by impossible-to-meet government rules that required emissions resulting from their construction and operation be “net zero.” The Canadian government’s delusionary “net zero” target also drives policies that stymie exports from this country’s oil reserves, the third largest in the world.

Consequences: Germany faces the Hobson’s choice of continuing to fund Russia’s brutal invasion or face disastrous natural gas shortages. Russia becomes the world oil market’s “swing producer.” Oil prices skyrocket, raising the cost of transportation for both industry and individuals. Inflation wreaks havoc across the globe.

Jesse Kline: Jagmeet Singh’s phony plea for competition after Rogers outage

If there’s one positive benefit of the massive nationwide outage that affected Rogers Communications customers on Friday, it’s that there now seems to be broad support for increased competition in the telecommunications sector. Unfortunately, many on the left seem intent on punishing the telecom giant for being too successful, and are focused almost exclusively on the company’s proposed $20-billion takeover of Shaw Communications.

Canada’s public service is collapsing. Let us count the ways

**Justin Trudeau meets adoring Civil Servants – What happens when civil servants get partisan?**

If you’ve needed a new passport within the last few months, good luck.

Those whose essential travel document expired within the last two years of the COVID-19 pandemic are now facing a harsh new reality when it comes to getting a renewed passport. Long lines, camping overnight outside passport offices, desperation, tears, flared tempers and the occasional fist fight.

That is if they weren’t willing to pony up hundreds of dollars, at a rate of $25 to $50 per hour, to pay someone to wait in line at the passport office for them.

But they’ll all get pay raises and increased benefits at your expense. Our politicians and predatory civil service unions have created a new ruling class. They hate us.

Shorter Freeland: DIE PEASANTS

Surging energy prices harmful to families, should drive green transition: Freeland

OTTAWA — Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said the federal government is absolutely concerned about inflation, but dismissed critics who called her callous and out of touch for suggesting the high cost of gas is a reminder of why we need to transition to greener energy solutions.

The Liberals are fanatics.

They are more than willing to sacrifice the economic well being, health and welfare of you and your family to their green-scam masters.

They will of course be comfortably cushioned from the new world order’s harsh realities.

They are no different than the people who ran the Gulags.

Stalin may as well be their mentor – “a single death is a tragedy, a million deaths are a statistic.”

Because that’s what you are to them a nameless number on a list.

When you’re convinced of doing the “Lord’s Work” there is no depravity too great.

Our government is censoring us, and with Bill C-11 it will get worse

The recent contretemps between the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission and Radio-Canada about the use of the n-word during a radio segment reminds us that the CRTC is all about the control of speech. Usually, the commission farms out its censorship to a specialized agency, but this time it did the dirty work itself. Two commissioners dissented, arguing that the CRTC was engaging in censorship without regard to the right to freedom of expression set forth in the Constitution.

GUNTER: Lich being persecuted, not prosecuted

I argued the re-arrest of Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich by Ottawa police and Ontario Crown attorneys, while ridiculous on its face, was justifiable because the rule of law rests on people obeying the courts by abiding by bail conditions.

Federally funded Canadian group used by China to spread propaganda on Uyghurs: report

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

Two Canadian community organizations — one of which has received thousands of dollars in federal funding — are prime examples of how the Chinese government has tried to covertly shape opinions worldwide about human rights abuses in Xinjiang province, says a new report by Australian academics.

Unifor to release full investigation into former president Jerry Dias

Unifor is set to release the full investigation into its former president Jerry Dias, the Star has learned, amid the fallout of an alleged kickback scandal shaking Canada’s largest private sector union.

The documents will be “released to local unions as soon as possible,” said Unifor national secretary-treasurer Lana Payne in response to questions from the Star.

Dias was allegedly given $50,000 by a rapid test supplier who he promoted to Unifor employers, according to an external report commissioned by the union earlier this year.

GUNTER: A handbook for schoolkids Liberals are funding is propaganda

According to the website Blacklock’s Reporter, on Wednesday the federal cabinet approved a quarter of a million dollars for a group called the Canadian Anti-Hate Network to produce propaganda for school children that seeks to demonize Conservative parties in Canada as hotbeds for white nationalists and other racists.

Ex-Mounties say Lucki scandal highlights politicized RCMP

Allegations of political interference in the investigation of the mass shooting in Nova Scotia highlight continuing problems with politicization of the RCMP, say former Mounties.

Rob Creasser was an RCMP officer in British Columbia from 1992 to 2010 and helped spearhead efforts to form the Mounted Police Professional Association of Canada (MPPAC). In an interview with Western Standard, Creasser said the revelations are only the latest indication of continuing problems.

“What I would gently call dysfunction within the organization — that hasn’t changed, despite me being out for now, over a decade,” Creasser said.

NBA player calls out Trudeau for Canada’s inaction on Uighur ‘genocide’

NBA star and human rights campaigner Enes Kanter Freedom says he is frustrated with what he calls a lacklustre response from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to his calls for more action to help Uighur Muslims in China.

The basketball player, who is currently a free agent after being cut by the Houston Rockets earlier year, said he wrote to Trudeau last month to encourage the Liberal government to take a harder line on China at a time when the country is allegedly committing a genocide against a Turkic minority in the country’s Xinjiang province.

Here’s what to know as Ottawa braces for Canada Day protests amid ‘lingering trauma’

The nation’s capital is bracing for a Canada Day set to draw large crowds after two years of virtual celebrations — just months after an unprecedented illegal demonstration that police say is still causing “lingering trauma” among Ottawa residents.

In normal years, Canada Day festivities draw thousands to the lawns and streets around Parliament Hill for concerts, fireworks and parties. COVID-19 forced celebrations to be virtual instead, in 2020 and 2021.

… official celebrations will be based at LeBreton Flats, the festival grounds roughly a 20-minute walk west of Parliament Hill, as the parliamentary precinct battens down.

The public’s disdain for Junior and his fellow LPC grifters is well deserved. No wonder they’re afraid and so quick to criminalize the citizen’s they allegedly serve.

Some of Canada’s entitled politicians blame you for the public’s low regard of their sacrifice

Politicians say their jobs are loathsome. But they’re part of the reason why

It’s probably a good thing Canada is avoiding a federal election for the next few years. It might take that long to find people willing to run for office.

All of the political news of late seems like a repeated warning label against the toxicity of a career in public life.

On Monday, it was B.C. Premier John Horgan who hopped on the exit ramp, announcing he no longer had the energy required to stay long-term in office. Though Horgan has emerged cancer-free from punishing radiation therapy earlier this year, the premier took a long hard look at his life and decided it needed to be politics-free as well.

Currently the goal of our put upon elected representatives seems our impoverishment. Few but they are better off since the Liberals were elected. Our mainstream political parties are an indistinguishable blob of entitlement hurt at the very suggestion they are not the objects of our unwavering admiration.

We need term limits. The bureaucracy has to be gutted and it’s predatory unions crushed, automation can easily handle the work most do anyway. That would be a great start.
