Liberals Make Gains in Polls as Leadership Race Gets Underway, Tories Still Lead by Double Digits

As the Liberal leadership race gets underway, support for the party has been rekindled, though the Conservatives continue to maintain a strong lead, a new survey says.

The Angus Reid Institute survey published Jan. 27, says that if Mark Carney takes the helm, the Liberals would garner 29 percent of voter support, compared to 24 percent under Chrystia Freeland. This marks an improvement for the Liberals from the low of 16 percent support recorded shortly before Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation announcement.
Interesting Nanos comment on polling – “I think a lot of that has to do with Justin Trudeau resigning and the vacancy that he has created,” Nanos said. “What happens is that when a party does not have a leader, there is nothing to repel people. … Now, once the Liberals select a leader, then we’ll actually have the real numbers in terms of whether there’s any real bounce to make the Liberals a little more competitive with the Conservatives than they have been over the last year and a half.”

Newly discovered ‘Christmas asteroid’ could collide with Earth

Rock wider than football pitch could have devastating impact if it hits our planet – which, according to Nasa scientists, is possible

An asteroid the width of a full-size football pitch could hit Earth in seven years, astronomers have warned.

A space rock between 40 and 100 metres wide was spotted on Christmas Day by a telescope in Chile, in South America, which specialises in identifying objects in space that could collide with our planet.

Analysis of the rock and its flight revealed it is moving away from Earth at around 38,000mph but its orbit will bring it into close proximity around Christmas 2032.

RUBENSTEIN: Kamloops… why wasn’t the money spent as intended?

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Canada’s premier newsroom revealing machinations our federal government leaders would rather keep hidden, “Millions paid to a British Columbia First Nation to recover suspected children’s graves at an Indian Residential School were instead budgeted for publicists and consultants.”

The Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations even tried to conceal the financial records under the Access To Information Act.

Why Can’t We Deport More White Criminal Aliens?

The race-obsessives denounce Trump’s deportations.

The progressive response to President Trump’s deportations is just getting under way, and it’s already dumb and hysterical.

Tom Homan wants to be Bull Connor, don’t you know? (So opined Princeton University’s Eddie Glaude.) According to Nicole Wallace and Joy Reid, we are potentially headed down the path of another Holocaust. “Similarities to what happened in Germany, and what’s happening now in America are just undeniable,” Reid said the other day.

Why Climate-Change Ideology Is Dying

Voters have concluded that the private jet-flying alarmists don’t really believe their own claims.

Momentous social movements begin to die the moment adherents figure out their leaders don’t believe what they say. Liberal Protestantism’s long decline started in the 1950s, when congregants began to wonder if their ministers still believed the old creeds (they didn’t). Communism dies wherever it’s tried because sooner or later the proletariat realize their self-appointed champions aren’t particularly interested in equality. Many sects and cults dwindle the moment their supposedly ascetic leaders are revealed to be libertines.

Something similar is happening to climate ideology.

Why Do These Terrorists Target Our Children?

In several unsettling attacks across Europe, lone assailants have singled out children in especially shocking acts of violence. Consider last week’s knife assault in Bavaria or the horrifying mass stabbing in Southport for which the killer has just been sentenced. Each time, authorities rush to dismiss terrorism or cite “psychological problems.” But far from having nothing to do with terrorism, these attacks suggest the emergence of a new kind of nihilistic terror, one which, although different from the ideological jihadism we might be used to, draws on a similar script. These killers express the hatred and contempt they have towards contemporary Western societies in acts of barbarism specifically targeted at children. Their choice of children is not incidental.

Leftist Smear Group Attacking RFK Jr. Led By ‘Queer Trans Activist,’ Funded By PornHub’s Parent Company

A shadowy, leftist group has targeted Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.

Fight For The Future, a tech advocacy group with leftist leadership, launched a campaign on Jan. 28 to sink the confirmation of Kennedy, whom it smeared as a “bigoted conspiracy theorist” — despite the group’s adherence to wild theories that men can be women, and that President Donald Trump is a “wannabe fascist.” The organization published a petition to pressure senators to keep Kennedy out of office, and a scorecard tracking how lawmakers plan to vote on the nomination.

Meet the ‘Black Sheep’ of the Trudeau clan: Why Justin’s MAGA brother who crashed RFK’s Senate hearing is NOT even the most cringeworthy in the Canadian first family

One seemingly unlikely supporter sat dead center in the audience of Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s Senate confirmation hearing on Wednesday.

In a shaggy beard, wire-rimmed glasses and a forest green ‘Make America Healthy Again’ hat, the man could have been mistaken for an ordinary member of the public – but he, too, is linked to a political dynasty.

Meet the least-known member of uber-progressive, outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s extended family – Justin’s half-brother, Kyle Kemper.

Brennan Backlash

Return of the Russia Hoax and the battle for the CIA.

President Trump revoked the security clearances of the 51 intel officials who signed the letter linking the Hunter Biden laptop with “Russian disinformation.” That brought a response from Obama CIA director John Brennan, who charged that Trump’s “bizarre” order misrepresented the letter. It didn’t, and there’s more to Brennan’s backlash that the people should know.

Democrats Joke About Moving to Canada Post-Trump. These People Actually Did It.

Disgusted by Donald Trump’s first presidential victory in 2016, Arkansas native Heather Fitz moved to pursue a new life in Canada.

Less than a week after arriving in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with her then-husband, she was questioning her choice.

Fitz had expected Canada to be cold, but nothing had prepared her for the freezing, 68 mile-an-hour winds that rocked their seven-story apartment building one night during a nor’easter.

“I was like, did we make the right decision?” said Fitz. “I was googling ‘building swaying is this safe.’ ”

Canada launches fentanyl crackdown to convince Trump tariffs aren’t necessary

Days before tariffs that have the potential to cripple Canada’s economy are expected to come into effect, Canadian politicians are pushing the message that the country is cracking down on one of U.S. President Donald Trump’s main concerns.

Since his re-election in November, Trump has repeatedly said he would hit Canada and others with tariffs of up to 25 per cent. On his first day back in the Oval Office, Trump suggested tariffs on Canadian goods could be coming on Saturday.

While he’s shifted back and forth on his irritants, one concern Trump has cited is drugs — such as fentanyl — entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico.
