Canada’s polite Trumpism

“Are we a country that looks out for each other … or do you go down a path of amplifying anger, division and fear?”

That’s how Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described the stakes in his country’s upcoming election in an interview with Vox’s Today, Explained this week — outlining the 2025 contest as no ordinary election but a referendum on the very soul of Canada.

Mortality in Gaza: lies and statistics

The Indomitable Mr. FAFO

The UN, UNWRA, WHO, numerous NGOs, senior British and American politicians and all the British mainstream news networks, including their flagship programmes, have all been consistently misleading people about the number of deaths in Gaza. But in the last month a series of articles in various publications have started to question this consensus. It is not clear why it has taken so long for this fightback, but what is clear is that the tide is turning.

One of the first major articles questioning the anti-Israel consensus was by Abrahm Wyner, an American mathematical statistician, and Professor of Statistics and Data Science at The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Published in the American magazine Tablet on 7 March, his piece was called, “How the Gaza Ministry of Health Fakes Casualty Numbers”.

Russia has found the critical vulnerability in Nato’s American tanks

The arrival of the US M1A1 Abrams tanks in Ukraine was hailed as a turning point in the war. Coming in at roughly $10 million a unit, the Nato stalwart was supposed to provide the armoured fist that would punch through the Russian lines. But tactics evolve quickly in warfare, and Russia’s use of surveillance and hunter-killer drones has led to heavy casualties for Ukraine’s tank fleets. This is alarming for NATO. If Russia has found critical vulnerabilities in our armour, our borders are beginning to look very vulnerable.

OPP reviewing actions of officer who provided protester with security info of Prime Minister

Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is reviewing the actions of one of their officers who gave security information about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to a protester and expressed his support for the demonstrators.

In a video that has surfaced online, an officer tells the protester which route Trudeau’s motorcade is taking and agrees with the protestor’s comments describing the federal government’s bail policies as “catch and release.”

He should be promoted.

Everyone Point and Laugh at Team Biden Hating the NYT for Not Being Liberal Enough

In need of a laugh? Check out this unintentionally comical story running 3,850 words from Thursday in Politico about the Biden regime’s apparently disgust with The New York Times: “The Petty Feud Between the NYT and the White House; Biden’s people think they’re ‘entitled.’ The Times says ‘they’re not being realistic.’”

In short, Politico’s Eli Stokols revealed the Biden campaign and White House are up in arms with The Times for being what they’ve come to believe are insufficiently loyal to The Cause of liberalism and not antagonistic enough toward Donald Trump given democracy supposedly being on the line in November.

Pallie Perv?

Raza got off light because the Goat wore suggestive clothing.

Anyone know if records like this can be obtained by a member of the public legally?

Is tweeting, publishing or otherwise making them public legal?

Randall Denley: Unions see to it that Ontario students don’t have enough teachers

Having a qualified teacher in every class, every day, would seem the most basic thing one could expect from a public education system. Ontario is failing to meet this standard in spectacular fashion.

A March report by the advocacy group People for Education found that 24 per cent of Ontario elementary schools and 35 per cent of secondary schools have daily teacher shortages. The information comes from a survey that included principals from 70 of Ontario’s 72 school boards. The survey included 21 per cent of publicly funded schools.

Forget the Matchup Polls. This Number Is What Should Terrify Team Biden.

When it comes to elections, polls are the most common tools we have to assess the state of the race, and there is no shortage of polls to look at and pick apart. National polls, state polls, direction-of-the-country polls, generic ballot polls, etc., etc. Based on the bulk of national and battleground state polls, it’s easy to see why Trump is clearly favored to win the 2024 election.

Home ownership is only for the rich in Trudeau’s Canada say 80% in new poll

Is home ownership only for the rich now? 80% say yes in new poll

The cost-of-living crisis facing Canadians is only getting more bleak, according to new polling that shows everything from buying a first home to affording groceries has gotten harder in the past year.

On Friday, Ipsos polling conducted exclusively for Global News showed that four in five Canadians (80 per cent) now feel that owning a home is only for the rich. That’s 11 points higher than a similar poll from just over a year ago in March 2023.

EV sales have slowed. Do massive ̷s̷u̷b̷s̷i̷d̷i̷e̷s̷ corporate welfare payouts still make sense?

Enormous investments in EV technology shook the automotive industry in both Canada and the U.S. this week. Honda promised to spend $15 billion in Ontario on Thursday morning. Toyota unveiled new investments in Indiana that afternoon, bringing its total spending on EVs in that state to $8 billion US.

“In Canada, our target is that 100 per cent of all light duty cars and passenger truck sales be zero emission by 2035,” said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the Honda announcement in Alliston, Ont. “As a great Canadian once said, that is where the puck is going and that is where we’re going to be.”

But the surge in investment comes as the underlying EV industry remains at a crossroads. Growth forecasts have plateaued, charging infrastructure has not kept pace and electric vehicle prices have pushed the cars out of reach of many consumers.

This is a CBC PROPAGANDA piece for the Liberals.
