Jordan Peterson will soon find out if the courts will stop the College of Psychologists of Ontario from requiring him to undergo social media training, which was ordered in response to public complaints about his online conduct.
In January, Peterson posted a document on social media that detailed a number of complaints that had been made to the college, which raised concerns about how Peterson, who’s a regular media commentator on current affairs, was comporting himself online.
Ottawa Police Service (OPS) leadership singled out a detective because she opposed Covid mandates and was critical of the vaccine, and even forbid her from discussing Covid at work, according to evidence and testimony provided during Detective Helen Grus’ discreditable conduct tribunal, which recessed Friday.
OTTAWA—An audio recording played at the pre-trial for Helen Grus—an Ottawa Police Service (OPS) detective being charged with disorderly conduct for investigating the vaccination status of the mothers of deceased infants—showed she sent two emails to then-Police Chief Peter Sloly to discuss a spike in infant deaths and a number of police officers with COVID-19 vaccine-related heart problems.
The intake of newcomers is rising rapidly and straining housing, healthcare and transportation
Canada is known for its embrace of immigrants and hasn’t experienced the same backlash that has been seen recently in countries such as the U.S. and the Netherlands. But new polling released last month from Ottawa-based Abacus Data reflects skepticism, with 61% of citizens saying the government’s plans are too ambitious because of the negative impact on housing and healthcare. The Canadian Medical Association said the country’s population-to-physician ratio ranks 29th out of 36 developed-world economies, while data from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development show Canada’s hospital-bed capacity is one of the lowest on a per-capita basis among rich-world economies.
Canada is known for its embrace of immigrants?
Submission to mass immigration is more like it. Romanticized views of immigration in Canada are the domain of politicians selling snake oil nowadays.
No one signed on for an inundation of incompatible cultures or to have their own government dismiss their heritage and nation as so much racist garbage.
Multiculturalism was weaponized and the smear of racism was used as a bludgeon to smash dissent and ensure Canadians clapped like trained seals in approval whenever the topic of immigration was raised.
Ethnic disaporas possessed of little in common with Canadian values are catered to by our political class who tolerate the intolerable for votes.
Who asked that hiring decisions be made on the basis of government ordained victim status?
Who asked that being white be considered a virtual hate crime and Canada be turned into a low trust society?
Who asked for “racialized sentencing guidelines” for criminals as if the average Joe who just wants to be left alone is somehow responsible for the alleged historic oppression of predators?
No one asked for a balkanized society where foreign ethnic conflicts spill out into our streets.
Who asked for an immigration policy that does not benefit citizens?
No one asked because it was imposed upon us and its true purpose is to benefit the corporate and political classes at our expense.
No one asked because divide and conquer works best when its victims are forbidden to talk about it until it’s too late.
This so called “embrace of immigration” is better described as a choke hold.
The outrage at the Coutts/NatWest debanking scandal in the United Kingdom does not align with the complete disinterest in Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s debanking of an entire political caste.
It was entirely appropriate for people to express their horror upon discovering banks were routinely passing moral judgment on the politics of their customers. It was correct for the British government to panic and swear to fix the problem (even though they low-key endorsed ESG practices for years). If restrictions are placed on banks in the future, especially relating to their licences, this will mark progress in the protection of citizen rights.
As the court trial continues for four men arrested in Coutts, Alberta, for allegedly conspiring to kill RCMP officers during the 2022 convoy protests, some law enforcement and legal experts claim that the denial of bail to the men is unusual, suggesting that the case is being “politically influenced.”
The echelons of power within the government, the media, and throughout society appear to be wittingly or unwittingly nurturing the seeds of another Timothy McVeigh as they continue to target their political opponents. They are crafting the playbook for the very forces they claim to counter.
“The wiretap was calculated to intimidate Detective Grus and her family – but all these ‘Urgent Emergency’ wiretaps during the Freedom Convoy backfired.
The wiretaps served only to galvanize Canadians and strengthen the legitimacy of protest against governments that overstepped their authority and power.”

THE truckers lost the battle but not the war. The senseless Covid-19 regime and the authoritarian and often nasty misrule by Justin Trudeau will have lasting impact on Canadian society. Unlike other prominent pandemic performers including Mark Rutte, Boris Johnson, Nicola Sturgeon, Jacinda Ardern and Sanna Marin, Trudeau remains in post, but he is heckled whenever seen in public. His days are surely numbered.
Pastor Artur Pawlowski’s troubles with the Canadian authorities began long before his sermon to commercial truckers encouraging their peaceful defiance against what he thought were “oppressive” public health mandates for COVID-19.
In 2005, he began serving and ministering to downtown Calgary—Alberta’s poor and downtrodden. “In other words, feeding the homeless and praying for them, which is now illegal,” he described to The Epoch Times in a telephone interview while under house arrest in Calgary following his court conviction in May for inciting mischief and violating his release conditions.
The people facing a $300 million class-action lawsuit for organizing the 2022 convoy protests in Ottawa are attempting to have the case quashed altogether, or moved out of Canada’s capital.
Lawyers representing convoy organizers Tamara Lich, Chris Barber and 10 other parties are preparing to argue the lawsuit should be dismissed because the legal action against them unduly limits their freedom of expression in a matter of public interest.
The lawyer representing Pat King, another convoy organizer, in the proceedings is intending on supporting the motion to have the case tossed.
Corporate behemoths have given up on the pretence of neutrality
The debanking of Nigel Farage demonstrates the power of a law that is already being enforced without having been formalised. Found guilty of crimes by state censors, secret committees of bureaucrats, or inscrutable algorithms, individuals can be disconnected and de-personed by institutions that they didn’t realise possessed such powers. Today it is banks terminating customers for their beliefs; tomorrow it may be primary schools and hospitals. The powerful consensus that once upheld the neutrality of key institutions as essential to maintaining peace in liberal societies is collapsing.
The COVID-19 public health crisis may be over, but a stay-at-home mom who organized two large anti-restriction protests in Aylmer in 2020 found out there’s still a hefty cost to thumbing her nose at pandemic emergency measures.
On Tuesday, the FBI handed over requested documents on its efforts to target Catholic Americans after another threat from Congress to hold director Christopher Wray in contempt.
As reported by the New York Post, Congressman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, had subpoenaed the files in question and threatened to hold Wray in contempt of Congress if the documents were not delivered by the deadline of July 25th.
The charity organizing Tamara Lich’s criminal defence has won the first round, albeit a procedural one, in the ongoing charges Mrs. Lich faces for her participation in the Freedom Convoy protests in 2022.
The lawyer representing Mrs. Lich on various mischief-related charges was in the Ontario Court of Justice to obtain evidence and a witness list the Crown prosecutors intend to present at her three-week trial, scheduled to begin on Ottawa on Sept. 5. The trial was originally scheduled to run for four weeks, but that was dependent on the number of witnesses.
