Think Again – Pro-Canadian shouldn’t mean anti-American

President Donald Trump just imposed 25 percent tariffs on steel and aluminum and may soon place similar tariffs on all other products entering the United States.

These tariffs will devastate our economy. In fact, they may throw us into a recession. It’s imperative we do everything we can to stop these tariffs from happening.

However, it’s interesting to see so many Liberal and NDP politicians suddenly beating the drum of Canadian patriotism. These are the same politicians who, until just a couple weeks ago, often referred to our country as “so-called” Canada and denounced it as a genocidal state.

Donald Trump’s 51st state threats a ‘wake-up call’ for Canada’s European allies, seasoned diplomat Melanie Joly says

OTTAWA—U. S. President Donald Trump’s 51st state annexation threats are a “wake-up call” to many of Canada’s European allies who have remained publicly silent and oblivious, says Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly.

Although Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was captured on hot mic 10 days ago telling Canadian business and union leaders that Trump’s desire to subsume Canada into the United States is “a real thing,” Joly said even now U.S. senators and representatives she met in Paris, Munich and Brussels continue to joke about it, while allies appeared unaware.

Joly changed her mind upon realizing she could shop with US dollars and never pay duty again once annexation was accomplished.

It’s a beautiful Western multicultural world, full of love and hope

The love and hope of multiculturalism was especially obvious on the faces of the two Australian Arab nurses who vowed to murder Jewish patients. Also on the face of the Syrian murderer of a 14 year old in Austria.

Villach, Austria is a city proud of being multicultural with its mix of German, Slavic and Romanesque identities, delightful to visit on the waters of the Drava River and already appreciated by the Romans for its thermal springs. A Syrian, shouting “Allahu Akbar”, lunges at passers-by with a knife and kills a 14-year-old boy. Then he sits down, smiles and waits to be arrested. They also call this multiculturalism.

The German-Syrian journalist and blogger Manaf Hassan publishes the photo on and writes: “The blood and tears have not dried. And now we move on to the next assassination attempt. A Syrian man accidentally stabs passersby in Villach. A 14-year-old is dead. And the perpetrator? He laughs and raises his finger. He laughs in our faces and is not afraid. Incredible.”

Musk Goes for the Gold

Asking the most obvious questions about the U.S. gold supply in Fort Knox: What’s there and how much is it worth?

Auric Goldfinger.

For James Bond fans, Goldfinger’s obsessed-with-gold villain in the Bond movie that bore his name way back in 1964 was, to say the least, memorable.

Life magazine memorably ran an immutable image from the film of a “Bond girl” (as such were called in the day) stretched out on a bed quite naked and dead, painted, from head to toe, in gold paint. Dead at the hands of Goldfinger, of course.

Opinion: Patients dying on waitlists are finally getting political attention

In the past four months, politicians from across the political spectrum have started talking about something really important — patients dying on waiting lists. It’s about time.

In Alberta, the NDP’s health critic raised concerns about SecondStreet.org research that found the provincial government has stopped tracking data on patients dying while waiting for health services. During B.C.’s fall election, the Conservative Party campaigned on carefully tracking and disclosing data on waiting-list deaths.

How USAID Shipped Bags of Hundred Dollar Bills to the Taliban

In 2022, the DAB Afghanistan Bank showed off photos of $40 million in stacks of hundred dollar bills sitting on the tarmac at Kabul International Airport. The Taliban-controlled central bank described this as one of three shipments of “humanitarian aid” amounting to over $100 million.

DAB, Afghanistan’s central bank, was headed by Noor Ahmad Agha, a “specially designated terrorist” who had been named as the “financier of bomb-making”, including the IEDs which had killed over 1,000 American soldiers, and sending money to a sanctioned figure was illegal.

Despite that, someone had sent a massive fortune in U.S. cash to the Taliban’s terror bank.

Ottawa spent record amount on outsourcing despite vow to rein in practice

Federal spending on outsourcing reached a record high of $17.8-billion last year, despite the Liberal government’s vow to cut back on the use of outside help.

It’s an increase of 13.5 per cent over the previous fiscal year. Spending in the broad category of professional and special services – which includes contracted work in categories such as lawyers, architects, training and maintenance, as well as various types of consultants – has more than doubled since the Liberals formed government in 2015.

Sounds like parting favours.

Like Poilievre, Freeland is pitching a housing plan that would limit immigration

OTTAWA — Liberal leadership candidate Chrystia Freeland’s plan to fix the housing shortage would tie the number of newcomers Canada admits to housing availability.

The former finance minister made the promise in a 10-point policy document her campaign issued Monday morning. Freeland said the move would slow down population growth until housing affordability stabilizes.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has been promising for some time now to tie immigration numbers to housing starts.

Oh yea that’ll turn the race around.

Trump’s musings on ‘very large faucet’ in Canada part of looming water crisis, say researchers

Water sharing between Canada and the United States has long been a contentious issue.

In 2005, former Alberta premier Peter Lougheed warned against sharing Canada’s water supply with the United States, suggesting Alberta’s most important resource was water, not oil and gas.

“We should communicate to the United States very quickly how firm we are about it,” Lougheed said.
