Maxime Bernier: Canada’s Conservative Party has been ‘infiltrated’ by ‘globalist and woke far left’
Leader of the People’s Party of Canada Maxime Bernier said the Conservative Party of Canada is “infiltrated” by the “woke far left,” after blasting the party’s President for using so-called “trans-inclusive” pronouns in his Twitter bio.
“This woke guy with pronouns in his bio is the president of the Conservative Party of Canada. Still wondering why I left this morally and intellectually corrupt party?,” tweeted Bernier yesterday.
The president of the CPC Rob Batherson’s Twitter bio reads, “Business person, community volunteer, husband, father, son (he/him).”
Well that’s settles it not voting the CPC next election.

The director of the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab says spyware is “like a wiretap on steroids,” and it requires more oversight and a much higher threshold for use than traditional wiretaps.

Former President Donald Trump said Monday evening his home had been raided by a “large group of FBI agents.”

Let us see secret information about Ottawa’s response to the ‘Freedom Convoy,’ civil liberties groups ask court
OTTAWA — Canada’s Federal Court needs information the government claims is secret to properly review whether the first use of the Emergencies Act — to end the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests this winter — violated constitutional rights, civil liberties groups say.
The groups made their case before Justice Richard Mosley on Monday, while the federal government responded that the information they seek falls under the established principle of cabinet confidentiality. A government lawyer described one group’s efforts to obtain documents as a “classic fishing expedition” based on speculation.
Germany braces for social unrest over energy prices
German officials have expressed fears that a worst-case winter of energy problems could prompt an extremist backlash. How bad things get may depend on how well they manage the crisis — in policy and perception.
Canada races ahead of US on current lithium project pipeline
Canada’s federal government has been strategically positioning to capitalize on the energy transition.
There isn’t going to be an energy transition. There’s going to be an energy reduction along with a standard of living reduction. The lithium mining is a red herring.
Unpleasant truths about the Moneypox vaccine
1) there is no evidence to support using this vaccine in pregnancy, lactation or children. There is no information on male (as well as female) fertility effects or carcinogenicity.
2) About 2% of recipients had a serious adverse event
3) According to the label, between 1.3% and 2.1% of recipients had a cardiac event of special interest, compared to 0.2% of placebo subjects. According to the FDA review document, not mentioned here, there were 10% and 18% of subjects with troponin elevations in two sub-studies. This suggests that somewhere between 1 in 90 and 1 in 6 people will have a troponin elevation or EKG abnormality, indicating some degree of cardiac damage due to the shot.
4) The monkeypox virus against which the vaccine was tested is probably quite different from the monkeypox virus currently circulating.
5) Now, if you want a scarier picture of what the vaccine does to recipients, it is found in the FDA review of the documents and studies that led to Jynneos’ 2019 license, but was not included in the label.
Jean Charest proposes to implement BC carbon tax nationwide
Conservative leadership candidate Jean Charest has pledged to implement a “low carbon fuel standard” – a policy that would tax the excess carbon emissions from fossil fuels.
In Charest’s environmental plan, Charest opposes the Trudeau government’s consumer carbon tax but pledges to “replace it with an industrial carbon price to slash emissions while giving provinces the flexibility to choose their path to emission reductions.”
It doesn’t matter. All costs will be paid by consumers. They think we’re stupid.

Liberals plan temporary solution to dental care program, sources say
Sources close to the government’s proposed $5.3 billion dental care program say the Liberals are planning a temporary solution that involves giving money directly to patients in order to keep their promise to the NDP while they work on a more permanent answer.
The Liberals promised the NDP a new dental care program for low- and middle-income families in March as part of a supply and confidence agreement to prevent an election before 2025.

Hoards of angry Donald Trump supporters descended on his Mar-a-Lago home last night shortly after it emerged that the FBI was searching the former President’s estate as part of an investigation into whether he took classified records from the White House to the Florida residence.
