Michael Barutciski: The Trudeau government claims it will reduce immigration, but how serious is it really?

The beleaguered Trudeau government recently released its annual report on immigration and it features a surprising about-turn—a pledge to significantly reduce immigration after years of touting it as a catalyst for Canada’s economic prosperity.

A proposed “temporary” reduction in “permanent resident” admissions—highlighted during an important press conference at the end of October—is getting the most media attention. However, the startling post-pandemic increase in the much larger “temporary resident” category is what ultimately destabilized the immigration system.

It isn’t serious in the least just more lies.

Cost of living, unemployment factors in record-breaking Canadian consumer debt

TORONTO – Consumer debt rose to a record $2.5 trillion in the third quarter as many Canadians continue to struggle with high living costs and rising unemployment, new surveys from two credit bureaus say.

Newcomers and consumers who borrowed money for the first time in the past 12 to 36 months saw the biggest rise in missed payments, compared with the same consumer group last year, Equifax’s report published Tuesday, showed.

The U.S. and Europe May Be Headed for a Divorce

Among the more childishly enjoyable fruits of Donald Trump’s election victory has been watching the spectacular gymnastic contortions of political leaders in Europe, where I have spent time recently, as they try to reconcile their previously expressed revulsion toward him with the political reality of his renewed status as the most powerful man on the planet.

Gold medal for the back flip with full twist and 180-degree turn goes to David Lammy, the British foreign secretary, who congratulated Mr. Trump and said he looked forward to finding “common ground” with the newly re-elected president. “I felt in my bones that there could be a Trump presidency,” he cheerily told the BBC the day after the election.

Anticipating Populist Nationalism in Russia and China

At this moment, when we can hope that the era of our U.S. educated class has been consigned to the dustbin of history, it’s time to get nostalgic. Remember the WWII Vera Lynn song?

When the lefty hate is gone, all over the world

And the wokey drains are flushed, all over the world

Oh wait, I guess that’s the Taylor Swift Era version.

Just About Everyone Outside Washington D.C. Supports Trump’s Plan To ‘Wreck’ The Bureaucracy

In a recent “PBS NewsHour” panel discussion, Washington Post Associate Editor Jonathan Capehart criticized President-elect Donald Trump for selecting cabinet nominees designed to “wreck Washington.” Underlying Capehart’s critique is his assumption that Washington in its present form doesn’t need “wrecking.” The majority of Americans disagree with that assumption.

In Canada we also work to support a bloated and entitled liberal-left vote bloc called the public service.

Open Borders Tripled Child Prostitution

“Children, boys and girls, are being sold for sex,” Tara Rodas, a whistleblower from the Department of Health and Human Services, told Congress. “Just last month I spoke with a care provider in Florida who told me about cases of migrant children as young as 8 with sexually transmitted diseases.”

Rodas, a former deputy to the director of the Federal Case Management Team at the Department of Health and Human Services, had been working on spotting red flags for child trafficking among the underage migrants who were being wrongly released to sponsors.

Record non-crime hate incidents even if ‘victim’ does not think it is one, police officers told

Police officers were instructed by bosses to record non-crime hate incidents, even in cases where the supposed victim did not believe a hate incident had taken place.

Lancashire Constabulary briefed officers in April 2019 that any interaction could be recorded as an incident if any one person “perceived” it as “motivated by prejudice or hostility”.

The internal briefing – released under freedom of information (FOI) laws – said this could be a relative, a neighbour or the “attending officer”.

The sexist rage against Nancy Mace

A prominent woman in American public life was openly threatened with death last week. A man posted a sick video on Instagram in which he fantasised about grabbing her by her ‘ratty looking fucking hair’ and repeatedly bashing her face into the floor until ‘the blood’s everywhere and you’re dead’. How did the right-on respond to this vile act of misogynist rage? Did they offer the woman in question their solidarity, damn the man who menaced her, promise to stand firm against the scourge of violence against women? Nope. They went after the woman herself. They called her a bully, a ‘cunt’, ‘hormonal’, a pox on the republic and ‘one of the worst people in the country’. I guess #MeToo’s over then?

John Ivison: Another wake-up call to ready for war as Canada slumbers on

On the day that Vladimir Putin said NATO members are now directly involved in the war in Ukraine because they have supplied missiles being used to bomb Russia, Justin Trudeau was announcing a yuletide $6.3-billion GST holiday on Christmas trees, beer and popcorn.

Canada, remember, is the country that can’t afford to hit its NATO spending target of two per cent of GDP for another eight years.

Could Montreal riots bring down Justin Trudeau?

The fallout from a riot in Montreal on Friday afternoon has reverberated across the Canadian news landscape in the days since, with citizens and politicians reacting to the chaos and disturbing signs of overt antisemitism from the event. Though the violence was speedily quelled and widely condemned, questions remain about the state of Canada’s multicultural society and whether it can withstand the mounting internal and external pressures on its integrity and cohesion.

I wish.
