Canada to provide C$250 mln to U.N. to address global food crisis, says Trudeau

June 23 (Reuters) – Canada will provide C$250 million ($193 million) to the United Nations to address a food crisis exacerbated by supply chain constraints and high inflation after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Thursday.

“We provided half a billion dollars at the beginning of the year (to the United Nations’ World Food Program), and this is an additional C$250 million to address this serious crisis,” Trudeau told reporters at the Commonwealth summit in Kigali, Rwanda.

I am convinced Trudeau cares only about sticking it to Canadians who disagree with his lunatic governance. Announcements like this are deliberate insults to citizens who go hungry due to his insane green policies which are in fact a form of eco-terrorism.

Five critical steps that Canada must take to combat the climate crisis

We are 18 months into a global pandemic, three weeks into a federal-election campaign — and at least 26 years into a climate crisis.

Scientists have been warning for decades that increased average temperatures would lead to such extreme weather events as massive flooding and out-of-control wildfires.

We now are witnessing these events almost every week. In the past few days, we saw devastating flooding across the United States. In New York City, the financial centre of the most powerful country in the world, flood waters rose so rapidly that some residents couldn’t leave their homes, and drowned. This isn’t normal; it’s like 100-year storms happening monthly. Just the latest horror on a long list: the destruction of Lytton, British Columbia, by an out-of-control wildfire. And, unless we act now, it will get immeasurably worse.
