‘Delay in loan sanctions…’: Indian banks go wary of student loans for Canada

https://breaking-news.ca/delay-in-loan-sanctions-indian-banks-go-wary-of-student-loans-for-canada/

But they say that application volumes haven’t dropped just yet, though it is expected to be impacted going ahead

Lenders are a bit cautious when processing loan applications.

Indian banks are taking a cautious approach while reviewing loan applications from students looking to pursue education in Canada, given the recent diplomatic tensions between the two nations. Worries concerning visa opportunities and a less hospitable environment might prompt certain students to rethink their educational choices, said Ankit Mehra, Co-founder and CEO, GyanDhan, Delhi-based education financing marketplace.

The diplomatic tension escalated when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of involvement in the assassination of a Khalistani terrorist. India vehemently denied the allegation and temporarily suspended visa services for Canadians.

“In view of growing anti-India activities and politically condoned hate crimes and criminal violence in Canada, all Indian nationals there and those contemplating travel are urged to exercise utmost caution,” the external affairs ministry said in a statement on September 20.

An Abbotsford school board meeting was forced to end early Tuesday evening after hundreds of protestors showed up to oppose the teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) in schools.

@pierre_barns

SOGI was initially created… I mean marketed as an anti-bullying program meant to be integrated into policies and procedures, fostering an “inclusive environment” and providing teacher resources.

However, in practice, SOGI has been used to undermine parental rights, intimidate parents and educators who raise questions about SOGI and other ideological/political matters, introduce gender ideologies into educational curricula, and rationalize the inclusion of sexually explicit materials in academic settings.

Why does an anti-bullying initiative bear the title SOGI, which stands for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity?

B.C. construction companies offered cash incentive for hiring non-white males

https://tnc.news/2023/09/28/b-c-construction-companies-offered-cash-incentive1/

A cash incentive available to British Columbia construction companies for hiring new workers doubles if a worker “self-identifies” as anything other than an able-bodied, heterosexual, white male.

On Wednesday, the British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) announced a new $10 million Apprenticeship Services Program that will give cash incentives to small and medium scale construction companies that hire and register first year apprentices for 39 Red Seal Trades.

The per-employee incentive is $5,000, but if an applicant self-identifies as a person of colour, woman, sexual minority, or person with a disability, it doubles to $10,000, according to the Western Investor. Continue...

Toronto’s Humber College is encouraging its Caucasian employees to join a “diversity, equity and inclusion” (DEI) group designed to help them “unlearn” and “dismantle” their “whiteness.”

The “Unlearning Circle” group, which was founded in 2021, also seeks to help staff “build an anti-racist practice.” It’s open to any employee who “identifies” as white and/or as “having white skin privilege.”

Canada: The Great Replacement

Canada’s population grew by more than one million in 2022. This increase was equivalent to 2.7%. Such a rate would double Canada’s population in 26 years.

When I moved to Canada in 2003, its population was 32 million. Today, it is 40 million, an increase of 25%.

Had immigration not occurred, the Canadian population would have fallen, given its fertility rate of 1.47, which itself would have been lower had immigration not occurred. But let us not get into the nitty-gritty when there is an 800-pound gorilla in the room.

For those who don’t have a sense of numbers, more than one out of every four people in Canada arrived after my arrival twenty years back. As it stands today, 26% of Canadians are first-generation immigrants. 18% are second-generation. 32% of children under fifteen in 2021 were second-generation immigrants.

My interest is not to get into statistical nuances but to show that nearly 50% of Canadians are first or second-generation immigrants. And immigration continues to ramp up, most of whom come from the Third World. Continue...

The New Abnormal: Authoritarian Control Freaks Want to Micromanage Our Lives

https://www.truth11.com/the-new-abnormal-authoritarian-control-freaks-want-to-micromanage-our-lives/

“Man is born free but everywhere is in chains.”—Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Authoritarian control freaks out to micromanage our lives have become the new normal or, to be more accurate, the new abnormal when it comes to how the government relates to the citizenry.

This overbearing despotism, which pre-dates the COVID-19 hysteria, is the very definition of a Nanny State, where government representatives (those elected and appointed to work for us) adopt the authoritarian notion that the government knows best and therefore must control, regulate and dictate almost everything about the citizenry’s public, private and professional lives.

Indeed, it’s a dangerous time for anyone who still clings to the idea that freedom means the right to think for yourself and act responsibly according to your best judgment.

This tug-of-war for control and sovereignty over our selves impacts almost every aspect of our lives, whether you’re talking about decisions relating to our health, our homes, how we raise our children, what we consume, what we drive, what we wear, how we spend our money, how we protect ourselves and our loved ones, and even who we associate with and what we think.

Canada must face up to Nazi legacy – minister

https://www.rt.com/news/583714-canada-nazi-immigrant-past/

It was “easier” for an SS member to enter the country than a Jew, Immigration Minister Marc Miller told the National Post

Canada may declassify records of Nazi war criminals admitted to the country after the Second World War, Immigration Minister Marc Miller said on Wednesday. Ottowa’s liberal government is currently mired in controversy over the veneration of a Ukrainian veteran of the Waffen SS in parliament last week.

“Canada has a really dark history with Nazis,” Miller told the National Post. “There was a point in our history where it was easier to get in as a Nazi than it was as a Jewish person. I think that’s a history we have to reconcile.”

A report commissioned by the Canadian government in 1985 found that there were almost 900 Nazi soldiers, scientists, and their associates living in Canada at the time, including around 600 members of the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS. Also known as the First Ukrainian or First Galician Division, this unit was formed in 1943 and staffed by Ukrainian volunteers, and is known to have committed atrocities against Jews and Poles during its campaign against the Soviet Union.

Waterloo adopts amended bylaw banning communications that make people “feel harassed”

https://tnc.news/2023/09/29/waterloo-harassed-bylaw-2/

Waterloo Region councillors voted unanimously to approve an amended bylaw that bans any communication that makes people “feel harassed” on regional properties, after hearing from nearly 20 delegations at a tense meeting Wednesday night.

The bylaw, which purports to protect people from harassment based on protected grounds such as race, religion, gender identity and sexual orientation, was opposed by some residents who claimed it would violate their freedom of speech.

One of the key concerns was that the way the bylaw was written was open to subjective interpretation as to what constituted “being harassed.”

As originally written, the bylaw amendment added “communicating, causing or permitting communication, with any person in a way that causes the person, reasonably in all the circumstances, to feel harassed” to a list of “prohibited activites.”

It defined being “harassed” as “feeling tormented, troubled, worried, plagued or badgered.” Upon the final vote, the bylaw was amended to remove the above definition of harassment and a provision was added to insist that the amendment would not “prevent or limit a lawful protest.” Continue...

Russian Mystery Plane That Landed In Pyongyang Making Washington Nervous

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russian-mystery-plane-landed-pyongyang-making-washington-nervous

A Russian 'mystery plane' spotted in North Korea is making Washington nervous, after Kim Jong Un visited Russia to meet with President Vladimir Putin this moth. The two leaders, deemed 'rogue' actors by the West, are believed to have discussed and possibly inked a weapons deal at a moment Moscow needs more ammunition for military operations in Ukraine.

Citing aviation tracking site FlightRadar24, Bloomberg described it as an an unscheduled Russian military VIP plane that landed in Pyongyang earlier this week.

The aircraft was in the North Korean capital for two days, however, both countries have kept mum as to its purpose. It could have been transporting another high-level Russian defense delegation.

"The tail number on the plane indicates it was the same aircraft Russia sent to North Korea in August, just days after Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu traveled to Pyongyang and was guided by Kim through a collection of his country’s latest weaponry," Bloomberg noted.

The West fears that that this was part of furthering agreements for technology and weapons transfers between the two countries, which are both heavily sanctioned by the US, also amid efforts to isolate them on the world stage. Continue...

COVID-19 Vaccine Found In The Hearts Of Dead People: Study

https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/covid-19-vaccine-found-hearts-dead-people-study

COVID-19 vaccine was detected in patients who died within a month of vaccination, according to a new study.

U.S. researchers analyzed tissue samples from the autopsies of 25 people, including 20 who were vaccinated.

Samples from the hearts of three patients, all of whom died within 30 days of a Pfizer shot, tested positive for messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA).

Eight bilateral axillary lymph node samples, from people who died within 30 days of a Moderna or Pfizer vaccine, also tested positive. The companies' shots utilize mRNA.

The research shows "the vaccine can persist for up to 30 days, including in the heart," Dr. James Stone, with the departments of pathology at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, told The Epoch Times via email.

The study was published by npj Vaccines. Authors declared no conflicts of interest. They said the research was supported by Massachusetts General Hospital, which is in Boston.

In testing of heart and bilateral axillary lymph node tissues from other vaccinated people who died, no vaccine was detected.

Additionally, no vaccine was detected in the liver, spleen, or mediastinal lymph nodes—vaccine was detected in the liver and spleen in preclinical rodent studies before—nor was any detected in tissues from the unvaccinated patients.

The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are known to cause myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation that can result in death.

The people who had mRNA detected in the heart did not have myocarditis, though they did have detectable heart injuries, researchers found.

The researchers said they believed the heart injuries stemmed from underlying diseases and not the vaccines.

"There is no indication as yet that the vaccine in the heart is causing any problems in these patients; neither the causes of death nor the causes of the myocardial injury were linked to the vaccines in that study," said Dr. Stone, one of the authors of the paper.

That position was challenged by Dr. Clare Craig, a British pathologist who reviewed the research.

"The vaccine should not have been there. There was evidence of heart damage. Those three people are now dead," Dr. Craig told The Epoch Times in a message.

She said the researchers were setting too high of a bar for causality.

"At postmortem if there is significant narrowing of the coronary arteries then heart damage is attributed to it on the balance of probabilities. Here this is a clear cut association, an unusual picture of myocardial injury, and a failure to call it out for what it is," Dr. Craig said. Continue...

Have some in the corporate press given up on their Twitter X attacks?

MOSCOW (Sputnik) Ukrainian Nazi veteran Yaroslav Hunka and his family are in hiding amid a scandal in the Canadian parliament, US TV channel reported, citing family friend Barb Bonenfant.

On September 22, Hunka, a 98-year-old former volunteer with the 14th Waffen SS Grenadier Division, a Nazi military unit declared a criminal organization during the Nuremberg trials in 1946, was invited to the Canadian parliament by Speaker Anthony Rota and lauded as a "hero" who fought against the Russians in World War Two. Rota resigned over the backlash that followed the exposure of Hunka's role in the notorious SS.

"Afraid to show their faces," Bonenfant said.

She said she had been unaware that Hunka had been an SS man.

WEF Pushes Criminalizing “climate inaction”

https://www.activistpost.com/2023/09/wef-pushes-criminalizing-climate-inaction.html

The World Economic Forum (WEF) is pushing for the criminalization of “climate inaction,” according to a recent article that was written by the unelected organization.

“Is climate inaction a human rights violation?” the headline read.

In it, the author suggested there will be an increasing number of climate-related lawsuits in the coming years.

“Climate-related litigation generally seems poised for expansion,” the article states.

According to the Global Climate Change Litigation database, there have been over 130 cases worldwide that have brought human rights-based claims against governments.

Furthermore, a legal advocate for climate litigation, Clémentine Baldon, told the WEF last year that there is a strong expectation that human rights-related climate claims “will continue to increase.”

On Wednesday, a lawsuit went to the European Court of Human Rights, brought forth by six young individuals against 32 European countries. The six individuals are alleging that the countries’ have failed to address the “climate crisis” caused by human activities.

“It’s being described as “unprecedented” in terms of potential impact,” the WEF stated.

“A win could push some of the wealthiest countries in the world to ramp up their responses to a changing climate; a loss could affect the numerous other legal efforts now underway to target inaction.”

Expect “Pain”

Last year, Norwegian Finance CEO and WEF speaker Kjerstin Braathen said that people should expect “pain,” inflation, and “energy shortages” due to the World Economic Forum and the UN’s climate change agenda.

“We need to accept that there will be some pain in the process,” Braathen said.

“The pace that we need [to end climate change] will open up for missteps. It will open up for shortages of energy. It will create inflationary pressures, and maybe we need to start talking about that — that that pain is actually worth it.”

The anti-COVID lockdown advocate contends that 'the Crown failed to prove that there was an absence of legal justification for his speech.'

Anti-COVID lockdown Canadian Christian pastor Artur Pawlowski is appealing two convictions against him for giving a sermon to truckers participating in a border blockade in early 2022.

The Democracy Fund (TDF) said in a press release that it has retained Sarah Miller of JSS Barristers to assist Pawlowski in appealing a conviction of counseling mischief as well as another for breaching a release condition, which mandated that he “keep the peace” and behave.

The TDF noted that a Notice of Criminal Appeal was filed in an Alberta court on Monday.

According to the TDF, Pawlowski’s appeal will focus on a “matter of law.”

“Specifically, he is claiming that the trial judge erred in her interpretation of the Criminal Code and that the Crown failed to prove that he did not attend Coutts for the purpose of communicating information, which can be a defence to the crime of mischief,” the TDF said.

In the court documents, Pawlowski states that “the Crown failed to prove that there was an absence of legal justification for his speech, namely freedom of expression as enshrined in the Charter of Rights and Freedom.” Continue...

The professor's testimony before a House of Commons committee appears to confirm concerns about China's meddling in Canadian affairs.

A leading Canadian computer scientist said agents from China offered him a six-figure bribe if he agreed to become a stooge for the Communist Chinese Party (CCP).

McGill University professor Benjamin Fung said during testimony at the House of Commons science committee that the CCP tactic was an obvious “recruitment strategy” designed to target Canadian academics.

As per Blacklock’s Reporter, Fung recently said that he asked the agents, “What do you want me to do?’” to which they replied, “You just need to reply to our emails.”

Putin calls for global economic change

https://www.rt.com/business/583790-global-economic-change-putin/

The modern financial system only serves the interest of the elites, according to the Russian president

The global economic system is structured to serve the interests of the Western elite, while developing countries are forced to borrow money at exorbitant interest rates, Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated.

Speaking at the Russia-Latin America Parliamentary Conference on Friday, Putin said global elites are exploiting almost all other countries, particularly in the areas of technology, information, and finance.

The Russian president claimed that loan obligations for developing markets are already akin to feudal “quitrents,” calling for an end to the practice.

“Therefore, we all have to work together to change the rules of the global (financial) system,” Putin urged.

The Russian leader previously proclaimed that the “myth of the Western welfare state, of the so-called ‘golden billion’, is crumbling.” According to Putin, the latest sanctions imposed on Russia by the US and its allies mark the end of an era.

A shocking new report reveals that hundreds of underaged Canadian girls have had their breasts surgically removed as part of so-called “gender affirming care” to accommodate their preferred gender identities.

The numbers were crunched by the Canadian Institute for Health Information and first reported by the National Post.

As of 2018, healthcare statistics show that 602 patients under the age of 18 were recorded as receiving a double-mastectomy. Nearly half, (303) were kids under the age of 17 with the lowest recorded age being 14-years-old.

The actual number of minors who have undergone life-changing surgeries to accommodate their gender identities is likely larger as private clinics that cater to transgender clients were not included. Additionally, Quebec hospital data were unavailable.

A doctor familiar who chose to remain anonymous to protect their professional reputation told the National Post that it’s concerning that the full data is unavailable.

“The fact that you can’t get the numbers from private clinics…. It’s very cloak-and-dagger,” said the physician.

“They’re still billing OHIP. That’s tax dollars. That should be publicly accessible information. We need to see these numbers and ask questions.”

The involvement of public funds and medical practice should concern the general public, the doctor added. Continue...

Food Banks Canada releases scathing report on poverty in Canada

https://tnc.news/2023/09/30/food-banks-canada-poverty/

Food Banks Canada has published its first ever national report card on poverty and it’s not looking good for all levels of government.

According to the organization’s poverty index, Canada scored a D+ overall when it comes to the elimination of poverty and food insecurity.

“All governments in Canada are proving quite frankly inadequate in their approach to poverty reduction across the board,” Food Banks Canada CEO Kristin Beardsley told CTV News.

“We need to see more action everywhere.”

To achieve its score, the organization relied on data and surveys that gauged Canadians’ experiences, poverty measurements, standard of living and levels of progress on eliminating poverty.

Overall Canada’s poor score stood out when it came to how many people said they were paying over 30% of their income on housing and Canadians expressing that they experience an inadequate standard of living.

“Housing has been among the top issues in Canada for several years. As the cost of housing skyrocketed through the pandemic, the situation went from bad to worse. Average rent prices in Canada are now over $2000 a month, representing an increase of more than 20% in the last two years,” wrote Food Banks Canada. Continue...

Over half of Canadians don't want to pay a carbon tax: poll

https://www.rebelnews.com/over_half_of_canadians_dont_want_to_pay_carbon_tax_poll

Though Alberta is typically the most anti-carbon tax province in Canada, the Maritimes usurped the conservative stronghold with 48% of respondents supporting its abolition.

Most Canadians don't want to pay a carbon tax — period. They want it reduced or eliminated entirely, says a new Leger poll.

Of respondents, over half (55%) wanted the carbon tax reduced (18%) or abolished (37%), while a quarter (27%) are content with the status quo, reported the National Post.

Less than one in five (18%) Canadians want to pay annual tax hikes until 2030, when all except Québec will pay $170 per tonne of carbon emissions.

As of April 1, Québec pays 9 cents per litre of gas. It will rise to 22.5 cents per litre of gas by 2030.

The carbon tax currently costs Albertans 14.4 cents per litre of gas — up from 8.8 cents in 2021. That is expected to rise to 37.6 cents in 2030.

"It's become quite clear that the price the federal government has set is not the same in every province," Alberta Premier Danielle Smith told reporters on May 26.

"Québec is going to have a much lower carbon tax price than Alberta, and I suppose if the federal government were going to interfere in this matter, the courts would frown on differential pricing."

On December 9, the UCP leader told reporters she would look at using the Alberta Sovereignty Act to investigate this discrepancy. The party has yet to confirm if or when that motion would be tabled.

Though Alberta is typically the most anti-carbon tax province in Canada, the Maritimes usurped the conservative stronghold with 48% of respondents supporting its abolition, according to the poll. Continue...

Justin Trudeau Moves to Regulate Podcasts and to Analyze and Track Content and Subscribers

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/justin-trudeau-moves-regulate-podcasts-analyze-track-content/

Canadian tyrant Justin Trudeau’s government recently moved to its next phase of controlling the population. The Trudeau government will now regulate podcasts and track content and subscribers. This tyrannical order comes after Trudeau restricted access to news in Canada last August.

This should come as no surprise, Trudeau previously froze the bank accounts of protesting truckers in Canada. The Trudeau government announced that being “pro-Trump” was a factor they would use to freeze accounts.

Infamous international podcaster Jordan Paterson responded to the the recent move.

The Smer party of former Prime Minister Robert Fico is the winner of Slovakian elections, in a very negative turn of events for Ukraine.

Smer maintained a wide lead from the beginning of the counting, despite a fake exit poll predicting the narrow victory of the PS party.

With 97,57% counted, results show the Smer with 23,44%, and the centrist, EU friendly PS in second with 16,67%, ahead of a host of other parties.

Russia's Military Budget Set To Rise By 70%

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russias-military-budget-set-rise-70

Russian military spending is set to rise by almost 70 percent — to €106 billion — by 2024, according to a Russian Finance Ministry document published Thursday, an increase that illustrates Moscow’s determination to continue its military intervention in Ukraine despite the human and economic costs.

According to the document, Russian defense spending will increase by 68 percent in 2024 compared to this year and will reach 10.8 trillion rubles (€106 billion).

As a result, the amount allocated to defense will represent about 30 percent of total federal spending in 2024 and 6 percent of GDP — a first in Russia’s modern history.

The budget for internal security is set to rise to 3.4 trillion rubles (€33 billion), almost 10 percent of annual federal spending.

The priorities for this budget are outlined as “strengthening the country’s defense capacity” and “integrating the new regions” of Ukraine whose annexation Moscow has demanded, as well as “social aid for the most vulnerable citizens,” just months ahead of the Russian presidential elections in spring 2024.

Conversely, total spending on education, healthcare and environmental protection accounts for barely a third of the defense budget, according to ministry figures. Overall, federal spending will total 36.7 trillion rubles (€359 billion), a dramatic 20 percent increase over 2023. Continue...

https://www.rt.com/india/583828-canada-india-sikh-extremism/

Canada, with US support, provides cover for Sikh separatists while launching unfounded accusations at New Delhi

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered a grave blow to his country’s ties with India last week by stating on the floor of his parliament that there were “credible allegations” that the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a local Sikh extremist, had “potential links” with India. He had raised the matter with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said, during the September 9-10 G20 summit in “no uncertain terms,” language that borders on diplomatic effrontery.

“Credible allegations” do not constitute evidence, and the connection with India being “potential” is an acknowledgment that no definitive conclusions have been reached, as the investigation is not complete. To recklessly accuse a friendly government of complicity on such shaky grounds indicates some political compulsion and personality flaws. Continue...

A Quebec resident was issued a $6250 ticket for violating Canada’s travel and quarantine laws 16 months after the incident.

Jacob Malcer was issued a ticket in August 2023 for allegedly violating Canada’s post-travel quarantine requirements in May 2022.

Malcer, a Canadian immigrant from Poland, visited his home country in May 2022 to attend his mother’s funeral.

In May 2022, the Canadian government was allowing unvaccinated travellers to enter into Canada with the caveat that they must provide a negative Covid-19 test upon entry along with a self-imposed quarantine for 14 days.

In grief over his mother’s recent death, Malcer said, he left his home on the ninth day of his quarantine to drive around the city. However, he was stopped by a police officer who instructed him to return home. He was not issued a ticket at the time. Continue...

The Mad Propaganda Push To Normalize War-Profiteering In Ukraine

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/mad-propaganda-push-normalize-war-profiteering-ukraine

There’s been an astonishingly brazen propaganda push to normalize war profiteering in Ukraine as Kyiv coordinates with the arms industry and western governments to convert the war-ravaged nation into a major domestic weapons manufacturer, thereby turning Ukrainians into proxies of the military industrial complex as well as the Pentagon.

At an event in Kyiv which hosted 250 “defense” industry corporations from 30 different countries on Friday, President Zelensky gave a speech urging war profiteers to open factories in Ukraine to cut out the middleman of securing and delivering so many weapons from abroad. This is an investment that the arms industry would ostensibly have plenty of time to set up, given that western officials are now going out of their way to communicate to the public that this war will stretch on for many more years to come.

Zelensky’s speech twice made use of the phrase “defense-industrial complex”, and used the phrase “arsenal of the free world” no fewer than three times.

“Ukraine is developing a special economic regime for the defense-industrial complex,” Zelensky said. “To give all the opportunities to realize their potential to every company that works for the sake of defense — in Ukraine and with Ukraine or that wants to come to Ukraine.”

“Right now, the most powerful military-industrial complexes are being determined, as are their priorities and the global standard of defense. All of this is being determined in Ukraine,” Zelensky tweeted with photos from the event. Continue...

Musk slams Trudeau’s ‘shameful’ censorship campaign: ‘Trying to crush free speech in Canada’

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/musk-slams-trudeaus-shameful-censorship-campaign-trying-to-crush-free-speech-in-canada/

The billionaire X owner has repeatedly blasted the Trudeau government’s aggressive censorship efforts, which he called ‘shameful.’

Free speech advocate and entrepreneur Elon Musk has once again criticized Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for his ongoing censorship campaign.

On Sunday, Musk posted on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter, “Trudeau is trying to crush free speech in Canada,” calling it “shameful.”

Musk’s comments were in response to a September 29 announcement from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) that laid out “its regulatory plan to modernize Canada’s broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content.”

In its first two decisions since opening the regulations for “public consultations” in May, the CRTC declared that “online streaming services need to provide information about their activities in Canada,” including submitting a registration form and adhering to certain “conditions” set by the government agency.

The announcement is the latest effort in Trudeau’s ongoing campaign to limit free speech in Canada and comes months after the notorious internet censorship Bill C-11 and Bill C-18 became the law of the land.

As the censorship campaign unraveled, Musk repeatedly voiced opposition to the efforts, citing unjust restriction of free speech. In 2022, he claimed the internet censorship legislation could become an attempt to “muzzle the voice” of Canadians. During the summer of 2023, the billionaire went as far as to suggest that Trudeau’s government should be replaced, if an election opportunity arises, with leaders who will defend the free speech rights of their citizens.

Musk also promoted the voice of the public during the Canadian Million Person March – a nationwide protest of LGBT indoctrination in schools – by sharing a video of the event that reached more than 115 million views on X.

Canadian military members undeterred after Crown attempts to dismiss lawsuit over COVID jab mandates

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/canadian-military-members-undeterred-after-crown-attempts-to-dismiss-lawsuit-over-covid-jab-mandates/

Catherine Christensen of Valour Law told LifeSiteNews that she has over 200,000 pages of evidence to counter the Crown's claims, including witness testimony, photographs, and memos to the Chief of the Defense Staff, General Wayne Eyre.

The attorney representing hundreds of current and former Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members in a $500 million class action lawsuit against military leaders over the imposition of “unlawful” COVID jab mandates is calling for the court to summarily rule in their favor following the Crown urging the court to dismiss the case.

In June more than 300 individuals who have served in the CAF filed a claim in Canada’s Federal Court arguing that Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS) General Wayne Eyre “issued an unlawful order on October 25, 2021, in violation of established law and constitutional rights” by requiring members of the armed forces to get the experimental COVID-19 shot or face removal from the service.

Earlier this month the Crown filed a statement of defense with the court arguing that the lawsuit should be dismissed “with costs against the plaintiffs,” and describing the lawsuit as “scandalous, frivolous and vexatious.”

The lawsuit is seeking monetary damages of roughly $1,000,000 per plaintiff and well over $1,000,000 more in other damages, coming to around $500,000,000 total.

The attorney representing the plaintiffs, Catherine Christensen of Valour Law, told LifeSiteNews that the Crown’s move to dismiss the lawsuit was to be expected. Continue...

The bloc has promised Kiev more money despite the ongoing opposition from Budapest

The EU will consider a €5 billion military aid package for Ukraine for 2024, the bloc’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said in Kiev on Monday. Hungary’s veto on the existing €500 million “European Peace Facility” fund has not yet been withdrawn, however.

“I have proposed a new multi-annual bilateral allocation of the European Peace Facility, up to five billion for next year,” Borrell said at a joint press conference with the Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba. “I hope we can reach an agreement before the end of the year.”

He did not mention the fate of the current EPF funds, which Hungary has been holding up since May. According to EuroNews, Borrell made no reference to Budapest’s position, saying only that the EU support for Kiev would continue “in all dimensions.”

Hungary’s Peter Szijjarto was conspicuously absent as 26 other members of the bloc sent foreign ministers for a surprise meeting in Kiev, intended as a show of support for Ukraine in the conflict with Russia. A deputy represented Budapest, according to EuroNews. Continue...

11,000 Ontario patients died on surgical waiting lists last year

https://tnc.news/2023/10/02/patients-died-waiting/

Thousands of Ontarians died waiting for healthcare last year, according to a new report.

The report from CUPE’s Ontario Council of Hospital Unions (OCHU) found that 11,000 Ontarians died last year while on waiting lists for surgeries, CT scans and MRIs over the course of 2022.

Currently, there are over 200,000 Ontarians still on the province’s surgical waitlist.

“I’m medically burnt out. It’s a fight. I have a little son, he’s five years old, and I promised him I would be at his wedding,” said 38-year old Jordanne Bialo, an Ontario patient who has been waiting for answers and treatment after falling ill in October 2020.

“That’s why I fight – for my family. It’s a full time job. It’s a full time job to be a patient right now.” Bialo told CityNews Toronto.

Bialo said that it took three years before she received a diagnosis from a doctor about her rare genetic tumour syndrome, known as Cowden syndrome. She will require a double mastectomy, which currently has a minimum wait time of one-year.

Her experience of long wait times is becoming all too common.

“I am full of these tumours that can turn any minute – it’s like Russian roulette and I just have to continue to keep pushing,” she said.

Bialo had a hysterectomy in July, after spending a year and a half waiting to see a gynecologist. Once she was able to see a doctor, they discovered four additional tumours on her back. Continue...

CBC rewrites headline accusing NB premier of opposing LGBTQ rights

https://www.rebelnews.com/cbc_rewrites_headline_accusing_nb_premier_of_opposing_lgbtq_rights

According to CBC Ombudsman Jack Nagler, 'CBC editors agreed the headline was imprecise, Editors changed the word.'

The headline by the state broadcaster about Conservative leader Blaine Higgs quietly changed the word "rights" to "policies."

The CBC Fredericton first wrote “Higgs Greets Marchers Opposing LGBTQ Rights" on September 20, 2023, before changing it to read “LGBTQ Policies” following complaints.

According to CBC Ombudsman Jack Nagler, “CBC editors agreed the headline was imprecise, Editors changed the word.”

The story about CBC's headline do-over first broke Monday morning in the independent publication, Blacklock's Reporter.

The complaints noted the problems with labelling Higgs' opposition to gender theory in the province's classrooms as anti-LGBTQ.

"This title is inaccurate and paints a completely untrue picture of what the people were marching for.”

“There were no ‘rights’ being opposed. Teaching gender ideology in schools was being opposed, and protesting this does not remove any rights from any groups or classes of people.”

Premier Higgs' new policy, adopted July 1, mandates informed consent for parents of children presenting as transgender in public schools.

Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on Friday denounced the “climate of violence” and “atmosphere of intimidation” against Indian diplomats in Canada, which he said was created by Canada’s indulgence of Sikh separatists, such as Hardeep Singh Nijar, whom Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau recently accused the Indian government of murdering.

“Because there is freedom of speech, to make threats and intimidate diplomats, I don’t think that’s acceptable,” Jaishankar said.

“We have had an ongoing problem with Canada and the Canadian government for some years now,” he said. “The ongoing problem really revolves around the permissiveness to terrorism, extremism, and violence.”

“This permissiveness is also reflected in the fact that some important extradition requests have not been responded to from their side,” he added. Continue...

India has told Canada to recall around 40 diplomats from the country by October 10, amid a deepening diplomatic row between the two nations, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday. New Delhi has also warned it will revoke diplomatic immunity for those who remain in India after the deadline, the report claimed.

An unnamed source told the outlet that Ottawa has over 60 diplomats posted in India, which is significantly higher than the Indian presence in Canada. A large consular section is required in India to cater to the relatives of the roughly 1.3 million Canadians who claim Indian heritage, the source suggested.

India has been seeking a reduction in the number of Canadian diplomats in the country ever since Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau triggered a diplomatic row by linking “agents of the Indian government” to the killing of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Continue...

Women's rights talk cancelled by British Columbia community centre for 'promoting discrimination, contempt, or hatred' against trans people

https://thepostmillennial.com/womens-rights-talk-cancelled-by-british-columbia-community-centre-for-promoting-discrimination-contempt-or-hatred-against-trans-people

Meghan Murphy called the accusation "provably untrue," and "baseless."

Women's rights activist Meghan Murphy was slated to hold an event at the Cowichan Community Centre in Duncan, British Columbia on Wednesday. But after pressure from far-left trans activists, the venue cancelled the event, claiming the purpose of the talk was in "promoting discrimination, contempt, or hatred" against people who identify as transgender.

Murphy, whose event in Ladysmith on Sunday sold out, slammed the CCC over its decision, accusing administrators of discriminating against her and those who stand up for the rights of women in Canada. Murphy is an outspoken Canadian woman who stands up for the rights of women and girls to have sex-segregated spaces. She also speaks against the inclusion of males who claim to be women among natural born women. Her account was banned from Twitter in 2018 after she identified a trans-identified male who demanded that female aestheticians wax his testicles as "him."

In an email to a member of Murphy's team, the CCC's administrative and facility booking coordinator Maaike McCooey explained why the event was cancelled.

"As a public facility we are required to follow policy under the BC Human Rights Code," she said. "Given the likelihood that the purpose of this event is to promote, or would have the effect of promoting discrimination, contempt or hatred for any group or person on the basis of sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, or any other similar factor, it is determined this rental must be cancelled."

Liberal Greg Fergus elected as new Speaker of the House of Commons

https://tnc.news/2023/10/03/liberal-greg-fergus-elected-as-new-speaker/

Members of Parliament have elected Greg Fergus as the new Speaker of the House of Commons. Fergus is the 38th Speaker of the House.

The abnormal mid-session Speaker election follows the resignation of Anthony Rota, who stepped down after inviting and recognizing former Nazi soldier Yarsalov Hunka as a “war hero” during a visit to Parliament by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Fergus is a Liberal MP, though the role of Speaker is to preside over House of Commons proceedings in a nonpartisan fashion.

Fergus said “respect and decorum” will be his goal. Continue...

Dissenting views CRIMINALIZED in the U.K. under new Online Safety Act, which gets you ARRESTED if government doesn’t like what you say

https://www.naturalnews.com/2023-10-03-speech-criminalized-uk-online-safety-act-arrest.html

An independent journalist based out of England has been arrested for sharing "malinformation" about Ukraine.

In accordance with the new Online Safety Act, also known as the United Kingdom's censorship law, Warren Thornton, who runs the podcast "The Real Truth," was in the midst of streaming on September 24 when police officers in Bristol showed up at his door and demanded entry in order to speak with him.

For the apparent crime of spreading "misinformation" about the situation in Ukraine, Thornton was hauled off by the cops and will presumably now be charged with some kind of "crime" for his disobedient speech.

"Thornton is a critic of NATO's escalation of the war in Ukraine and has posted several videos about Ukrainian attacks on Russian civilians and the secret existence of biolabs in Ukraine," reported Human Events about the incident.

"He was also quick to report how a former Waffen-SS Nazi soldier was allowed to sit in the Canadian House of Commons Gallery during a speech by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy."

Canada is similarly drafting its own censorship bill to do the same thing there

Scarily, our neighbors to the north are planning on unleashing a similar bill. Canada's left-wing government is preparing nearly identical legislation as the U.K.'s Online Safety Act that will punish as a crime the spread of "disinformation" on the internet.

The Canadian bill, as it currently stands, is arguably worse than the U.K.'s Online Safety Bill in that it does not even define what "disinformation" actually is. In other words, Justin Trudeau's regime will simply make up the rules along the way. Continue...

Canada weighs leading UN military intervention in Haiti as it slashes defence budget

https://tnc.news/2023/10/04/canada-weighs-leading-un-military-intervention-in-haiti/

The Liberal government is debating whether Canada should lead a United Nations military intervention aimed at restoring order and stability in Haiti as the Caribbean country faces a humanitarian crisis.

Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly told reporters on Tuesday that she has been in discussions with the UN and Kenya, which has expressed a willingness to spearhead the operation if Canada doesn’t set up to the plate.

Joly’s comments come at a time when the Liberal government looks to pull $1 billion in funding from the defence budget and military leaders are warning that Canada simply doesn’t have the resources to take on such a critical mission.

“Canada has always been involved in issues related to Haiti. We will continue to be,” said Joly. Continue...

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/hungarian-pm-viktor-orban-calls-kievs-quick-ascension/

Once again, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is putting his national interests ahead of the plans of the EU.

This time, it involves the prospects of Ukrainian ascension to the European Union.

Orbán publicly cast doubt on the prospect of the European Union beginning negotiations any time soon for Ukraine to join the bloc, adding that it was ‘unrealistic’ to launch the process with a country that’s at war.

Ukraine was granted EU candidate status last year, in a rapid decision for the EU, known for its slow approach to expansion.

The European Council expects to begin negotiations on Ukraine’s accession in December.

Orbán reminded that an unanimity among the EU’s 27 members is required in order to admit a new country into the bloc.

The Hungarian parliament would also have to give the green light to Ukraine, which has ambitions to join the EU within two years.

Swiss Writer Sentenced To 60 Days In Jail For Calling Journalist A "Fat Lesbian"

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/swiss-writer-sentenced-60-days-jail-calling-journalist-fat-lesbian

With Switzerland being the home of the technocratic vanguard tasked with ushering in new world order totalitarianism in the World Economic Forum, the recent sentencing of a Swiss-French writer for what could best be described as a thought crime should come as no surprise. Writer and social commentator Alain Soral was handed a 60-day jail sentence for chastising a critic of his after he took aim at their body image and sexual orientation. Soral lashed out at the journalist by calling them a "fat lesbian" among berating them with more vitriolic criticism. A Swiss court in Lausanne determined that Soral's scornful remarks constituted criminal acts of defamation, discrimination and incitement of hatred. The sentenced ultimately handed down to Soral was a cruel irony even more surreal than any satirical polemic social commentary he could have written. Continue...

Ontario judge rules against dad who resisted COVID shots for his kids, allows mom to get them jabbed

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ontario-judge-rules-against-dad-who-resisted-covid-shots-for-his-kids-allows-mom-to-get-them-jabbed/

A divisional court justice overruled a previous decision siding with the father, who challenged vaccine effectiveness and safety.

A Canadian judge ruled against a father who did not want his kids to get the COVID shots and has instead given the children’s mother, who is in favor of the shots for her kids, full “decision-making authority regarding the injections.

Ontario Divisional Court Justice Shaun O’Brien issued the ruling last Thursday that overturned a previous court judgment by Superior Court Justice Richard Bennett from early this year that sided in favor of the father.

As reported by LifeSiteNews in February, Bennett ruled in favor of the divorced father of the three kids, known as J.W.T., siding with the dad who challenged vaccine effectiveness and safety in a fight to keep his children from getting the experimental shots.

Via a 67-page ruling, Bennett agreed that the father had a right to cite “expert evidence” during his court case concerning COVID-19 safety. This allowed the case to proceed to trial.

The kids’ mother, identified as S.E.G, appealed the ruling.

O’Brien’s nine-page ruling of the appeal, which came about on behalf of a three-judge panel, stated that Bennett, in his ruling, had given “inapt” comments as well as “inflammatory rhetoric.” The ruling also claimed that Bennett did not acknowledge an obligation to follow an earlier court decision that said judges should accept the federal government’s approval of the jabs as “a strong indicator of safety and effectiveness.” Continue...

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/canadian-govt-paid-nearly-500k-for-a-report-to-support-imposing-carbon-tax-on-citizens-records-show/

The Environment and Climate Change department helped fund a report by the World Economic Forum to make a strong business case for extreme environmental rules such as a carbon tax.

Disclosed records show the Canadian government’s Environment and Climate Change Department (ECCC) helped pay the World Economic Forum (WEF) to produce a report that praised and tried to justify the implementation of a radical environmental agenda on citizens, including increasing the punishing carbon tax.

According to documents obtained by The Epoch Times, Canada’s then-Environment and Climate Change Minister Catherine McKenna in August 2019 had allotted $493,937 of taxpayer money to the WEF to produce the carbon tax-friendly “New Nature Economy Report.”

The goal was to make a strong business case to key business and government decision-makers for extreme environmental rules such as a carbon tax.

The ECCC said its report “will be directed at senior decision-makers in governments and businesses who have the influence and ability to shift business-as-usual approach.”

The disclosed documents became known via Order Paper questions requested by Conservative Party of Canada MP Leslyn Lewis in June 2023. Lewis had asked for a full disclosure of all “contracts, transfer payments, memoranda of understanding, letters of intent, charters, accords, projects and associations between the government and the WEF since November 4, 2015.”

The outcomes from the Order Paper resulted in a 127-page response that was tabled in the House of Commons on September 18. Continue...

New Canadian Nazi scandal forces Viceroy to apologize – media

https://www.rt.com/news/584009-order-canada-nazi-veteran/

The country’s second-highest order was bestowed in 1987 on a former member of a Ukrainian Waffen-SS unit

Canadian Governor General Mary Simon has reportedly apologized and expressed “regret” that her office awarded the second-highest merit in the country in 1987 to a Ukrainian-Canadian who formerly served in a Nazi unit.

The statement was reported on Tuesday by Forward, a Jewish news outlet that previously helped expose the dark past of Yaroslav Hunka. The Ukrainian-Canadian Waffen-SS veteran received a standing ovation at the Canadian parliament last month, sparking international outrage. Peter Savaryn, whose decoration more than three decades ago has now been deemed inappropriate, served in the same 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS as Hunka.

Savaryn was already mentioned in connection in the Hunka scandal due to his tenure as the 12th chancellor of the University of Alberta from 1982 to 1986. Last month, the university announced it was shutting down an endowment named after Hunka. The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (FSWC), a Jewish advocacy group, urged the university to acknowledge Savaryn’s past as well. Continue...

Ex-RCMP intelligence director allegedly sold ‘secret police information’ to man under criminal investigation

https://www.rebelnews.com/ex_rcmp_intelligence_director_allegedly_sold_secret_police_information_to_man_under_criminal_investigation

Cameron Ortis had ‘unrestricted’ access to both Canadian and allied intelligence and is bound to secrecy for life on the information he accessed.

A former intelligence director with the RCMP pleaded not guilty Tuesday to accusations he disclosed secret information to a suspect with ties to organized crime.

In her opening statement, Crown prosecutor Judy Kliewer told a 12-person jury that the case against Cameron Ortis is “highly unusual.”

In 2018, the RCMP learned of a potential intelligence leaker following the arrest of Vincent Ramos, a tech entrepreneur who sold hyper-encrypted phones to a Mexican cartel.

The federal police service uncovered an anonymous email dated April 29, 2015 that contained 10 attachments on their “Project Saturation” investigation against Ramos, the Crown told the court.

After an 18-month investigation, they uncovered an email thread to Ramos by the same individual, with partial attachments on “the identity of an undercover operator that had been asked to approach Mr. Ramos and his associates.”

“The thing you are being asked to decide in this file is one that is very unique and, in some respects, quite important, because this in fact is the first occasion on which someone has been charged under Section 14 of the Security of Information Act in Canada that has been in place since 2001,” Kliewer said to the jury.

For a $20,000 fee, the Crown alleged Ortis offered Ramos the complete documents, reported the Ottawa Citizen.

The prosecutor told the court that Ortis allegedly sent the complete files to Ramos but did not confirm if the latter paid the fee. Continue...

RCMP probes alleged misconduct into $55 million ArriveCAN boondoggle

https://www.rebelnews.com/rcmp_probes_alleged_misconduct_into_55_million_arrivecan_boondoggle

CBSA launched an internal review last fall on ArriveCAN, prompting weeks of turmoil and finger-pointing between government agencies. As of March 3, Procurement Canada pegged the costs for the app at $55 million.

The ArriveCAN conundrum fostered a blatant disregard for government bureaucrats and contractors to abuse taxpayer dues — so much so that the RCMP is launching an investigation into the matter.

The federal police service is investigating allegations of misconduct concerning ArriveCAN after two tech entrepreneurs warned the federal government of their ‘cozy relationships’ with private firms.

The allegations concern a $500,000 contract that came from a $21.2 million pool of money designated for general services by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).

On October 6, The Globe and Mail first reported the project’s costs totalled $54 million — more than double the initial projections. Continue...

https://tnc.news/2023/10/05/over-350-per-tonne-carbon-tax-needed-to-reach-federal-net-0/

A research report prepared for New Brunswick’s Climate Change Secretariat concluded that to reach federal and provincial net-zero emission reduction targets by 2050, a “compulsory” carbon price of over $350 per tonne would be required.

The report, titled Pathways to Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions in New Brunswick, was prepared by Navius Research as a guide to policy makers.

“Both New Brunswick and the federal government have established a target of achieving net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050. Such a target implies reducing emissions to as close to zero as possible while counter-balancing any remaining emissions through carbon dioxide removals from the atmosphere,” wrote analysts.

Under a scenario that includes the federal emissions reduction plan (ERP), researchers conclude that crossing the net zero gap would require “strong and compulsory policies.” Continue...

According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF), Rideau Hall spent more than $1,800 a month on dry-cleaning services since 2018 — equivalent to dry cleaning 13,831 blouses during that period.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) continues to grill Rideau Hall for disrespecting taxpayer dues as Canada’s Governor General has racked up a six-figure dry cleaning tab since 2018.

According to records tabled by Conservative MP Kelly McCauley in response to an Order Paper Question, Governor General Mary Simon and her predecessor Julie Payette spent $117,566 on professional dry-cleaning services.

The records note, “traditional laundering is done in-house,” but Rideau Hall outsourced everything from personal clothing, tablecloths, napkins and assorted linens for professional dry cleaning.

“When I spill half the Pizza Hut lunch buffet on my white work shirt, I don’t stick the company I work for with the dry-cleaning bill and neither should the governor general,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director.

“This is another perk the governor general enjoys that struggling Canadians can’t afford,” he added. Continue...

The lawsuit claims Dr. Donald Ewen Cameron performed unlawful experiments at the Allan Memorial Institute between 1948 and 1964 as part of the CIA’s attempt at covert mind-control.

A bizarre class-action lawsuit against the U.S. government may not proceed after the Québec Court of Appeal said the country cannot be sued in Canada for its alleged role in brainwashing psychiatric patients.

The lawsuit — which has not been authorized by a judge — claims Dr. Donald Ewen Cameron performed unlawful experiments at the Allan Memorial Institute between 1948 and 1964 as part of the CIA’s MK-ULTRA program on covert mind-control.

The program allegedly received joint funding from the Canadian government and the CIA during that period for experiments at the Institute in conjunction with McGill University.

But a 3-0 decision rendered on October 2 contends a 1982 Canadian law on suing foreign states cannot be used retroactively.

As many as 300 families could have participated in the class action if approved.

The January 2019 class-action application against McGill, the Royal Victoria Hospital and the Canadian and U.S. governments alleged Montrealers had their memories erased by the experiments.

Despite staying the appeal, the plaintiffs said the trial judge should not have granted the U.S. immunity on the matter, as they believe they can be sued retroactively under Canada’s 1982 State Immunity Act. Continue...

St. Theresa’s Eregi Girls High School in Kakamega County, Kenya, has been temporarily closed following an outbreak of a mysterious illness that has left more than 95 students hospitalized.

The disease is characterized by paralysis in the limbs, rendering most of the students unable to walk. The school administration, in consultation with government officials, has decided to send Form One (Grade 7), Form Two (Grade 8), and Form Three (Grade 9) students home until further assessments are made. Blood samples from the affected students have been sent to the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) for analysis, according to Kenyan news outlet Tuko.

Based on the videos circulating on social media, most of the students are suffering from some sort of mystery illness that causes paralysis in their legs, making it difficult for them to walk. Some reports have attributed the incident to “mass hysteria.”

Canada Wildfires Send Another Toxic Smoke Plume Across America from Seattle to Miami

https://www.breitbart.com/environment/2023/10/04/canada-wildfires-send-toxic-smoke-plume-america-seattle-miami/

Smoke from Canada’s still-burning wildfires once again drifted across the border into the northern United States this week, prompting smoke and haze advisories until Wednesday, although the air quality remained much higher than it was during Canadian wildfire smoke plumes this summer.

“The smoke and haze will likely stay much higher up in the air than it was in June and July, meaning the impacts won’t be nearly as severe for those on the ground. As compared to the summer, when air quality reached hazardous levels, this week will be far less severe,” NBC News in New York explained on Monday.

Those high-altitude winds and high-pressure zones helped the wildfire smoke travel all the way to Florida, where milky hazes were observed as far south as Miami on Tuesday. The sky in Orlando was visibly tinged orange on Monday evening, triggering “moderate” air quality ratings across the Tampa-Orlando area.

On Tuesday, some surprisingly heavy concentrations of imported Canadian smoke gave parts of Florida the worst air-quality ratings in the country. Continue...

Canada allowing companies to bypass Russia sanctions – media

https://www.rt.com/business/584078-canada-sanctions-evasion-permits-russia/

The government has tacitly authorized trade with Moscow in a number of sensitive sectors, news outlet Le Devoir reports

Canada has issued more than a dozen special permits allowing companies to circumvent sanctions imposed on Russia over the Ukraine conflict, news outlet Le Devoir reported on Tuesday, citing federal data on international trade.

A number of transactions took place in the first seven months of this year “on the sidelines of the Ukrainian counteroffensive,” the outlet claimed.

The Canadian Foreign Ministry has confirmed the existence of the permits but refused to specify their exact number, according to Le Devoir. The ministry also declined to give the reasons which led to their issuance or the beneficiaries, citing “commercial confidentiality.”

According to the outlet, the permits allow sanctions imposed by Ottawa to be bypassed in areas considered “delicate for Ukraine’s allies,” such as exports of materials and equipment linked to weapons manufacturing as well as oil and mining exploration.

The total value of oil and mining deals authorized by Ottawa has reached $2 million (Can$2.8 million) since March 2022. In addition, Canadian companies have exported drilling machines for soil probes to Russia along with spare parts worth about $1.4 million. The most recent transaction was in February 2023.

Highest-earning foreign companies operating in Russia revealed

As part of trade placed outside Canada’s sanctions regime, companies have also supplied Russia with several-thousand dollars’ worth of aluminum parts, static electrical converters, X-ray machines, and devices using alpha, beta, gamma or other ionizing radiation, according to Le Devoir. The outlet noted that this equipment is listed in Canada’s sanctions regulations due to its possible use in weapons production.

Several Canadian companies were allowed to bypass sanctions on imports of Russian iron, cast iron, and steel products. That includes $13.1 million worth of iron and steel tubes, which can be used in the mining and oil sectors, data compiled by Le Devoir revealed.

Government permits have also maintained supplies of items described as “luxury” and goods targeted by Canadian restrictions such as fresh fish, shellfish, and other seafood products, as well as vodka, for a total amount exceeding $12.3 million since the beginning of the Ukraine conflict.

Canada mulls releasing names of Ukrainian Nazis

https://www.rt.com/news/584060-canada-deschenes-commission-nazis/

Calls were renewed to declassify findings from the 1980s Deschenes Commission after a former Waffen SS soldier was applauded in parliament

The Canadian government is looking again at the contentious issue of the classified sections of a 1980s report on former-Nazi fighters then living in the country, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. It follows the scandal around a standing ovation given to a Ukrainian Waffen SS veteran in the country's parliament.

“We have made sure that there are top public servants who are looking very carefully into the issue, including digging into the archives, and they’re going to make recommendations to the relevant ministers,” Trudeau told reporters on Wednesday.

He was referring to the contents of the Commission of Inquiry on War Criminals, headed by Justice Jules Deschenes. Convened in 1985, the panel was responsible for investigating the presence of war criminals taking refuge in Canada, and released its findings the following year. Continue...

Trudeau billed taxpayers $200K more for Easter vacation than originally disclosed

https://tnc.news/2023/10/06/trudeau-billed-taxpayers-200k-more-than-disclosed1/

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Easter vacation cost taxpayers more than $228,839, parliamentary filings show.

Two weeks prior to the final receipts being reported, the government claimed only $23,846 in spending on the trip, a discrepancy of over $200,000.

The vacation cost more than $228,839 when accounting for the expenses covered by the Canadian Armed Forces, the Privy Council Office, and the RCMP.

Conservative MP Luc Berthold filed a Question on the Order Paper in the House of Commons regarding the Montana trips expenditures, such as a breakdown of different expenses.

In their response, the government disclosed $23,846, which included spending by the Canadian Armed Forces and the Privy Council. The prior disclosure failed to report the $204,993 the RCMP spent on overtime and costs such as accommodations, meals, incidentals, and travel associated with the Prime Minister’s holiday.

Conservative Member of Parliament, Michael Barrett said that “Justin Trudeau charges another luxury getaway to Canadians who can’t afford to live.” Others are curious why there is such a discrepancy. Continue...

Hungary PM Orbán: Brussels Is Creating An Orwellian World In Front Of Our Eyes

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/pm-orban-brussels-creating-orwellian-world-front-our-eyes

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán took to platform X to point out what he says is the “Orwellian world” the European Union is creating, including promoting war via a facility meant for peace and attempting to curtail media as a form of freedom.

“Brussels is creating an Orwellian world in front of our eyes. They buy and supply weapons through the #EuropeanPeaceFacility. They want to control the media through the #MediaFreedomAct. We didn’t fight the communists to end up in 1984!” wrote Orban.

Orbán is referring to the European Peace Facility, which is responsible for transferring billions in weapons to Ukrainian forces, a move that Orbán argues has only prolonged the war and cost thousands of Ukrainian lives.

According to the European Peace Facility’s own website (bold text added by original authors),

“On 26 June 2023, the Council adopted a decision to increase the overall financial ceiling of the European Peace Facility (EPF) by €4.061 billion (in current prices, or €3.5 billion in 2018 prices). The overall financial ceiling now totals more than €12 billion (in current prices).

On 20 March 2023, in a joint session gathering EU foreign affairs and defense ministers, the Council agreed on the three-track proposal put forward by the High Representative and Commissioner Breton. This proposal outlines how to urgently provide Ukraine with artillery ammunition, either coming from existing stocks or jointly procured.“

Orbán is referring to specific terms developed by Orwell in his most famous novel, “1984,” which describes how a fictional dystopian regime uses words to mislead the people into accepting the power of the party. Continue...

Despite the attempts of the LGBT mob, Dr. Gillies revealed that both pro-family events were 'huge successes.'

SWIFT CURRENT, Saskatchewan — Despite successfully getting police to open an investigation into the matter, LGBT activist groups failed to cancel a series of two pro-family events in Saskatchewan opposing the gender mutilation of children.

Earlier this week, LGBT activists reportedly spoke to local Saskatchewan media and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in an attempt to have two pro-family events featuring Dr. Ann Gillies, a retired psychotherapist and trauma specialist, canceled. In spite of their efforts, the events occurred as planned with Gillies calling them resounding “successes.”

“After receiving multiple reports of concern from citizens, the Swift Current City RCMP shared officers are currently investigating the function,” an article published last Friday in the Swift Current Online attested.

The two-day event, called “A Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity Public Forum – Protect All Children,” featured Gillies and speaker and author Wilna van Beek. The events took place in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, and Swift Current, Saskatchewan, and were arranged by the Freedom Patriots of Saskatchewan. Continue...

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/10/05/migrant-apprehensions-in-one-canadian-border-sector-surpass-prior-11-years/

Swanton Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 6,800 migrants during the recently ended Fiscal Year 23. This is more than the total apprehensions during the past 11 years, according to the sector chief.

Swanton Sector Chief Patrol Agent Robert Garcia posted on X, formerly Twitter, that his agents apprehended more than 6,700 migrants in less than a year. Unofficial numbers reviewed by Breitbart Texas indicated that the number rose to more than 6,800 by September 30. Garcia stated this is more apprehensions than during the past 11 years combined.

During September, Swanton Sector agents took approximately 860 migrnts into custody. This compared to 236 during the same month in 2022, according to the Nationwide Encounters Report from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The official report shows the apprehension of 5,970 migrants during the first 11 months of the fiscal year. Of those, 2,937 (49 percent) were Mexican nationals who crossed the Canadian border into northeast New York, Vermont, or New Hampshire.

Approximately 2,600 of the Mexican nationals apprehended were classified as single adults. The agents also apprehended 316 family units and three unaccompanied minors.

Define ‘Nazi’: Western media muddies history to cover up Canada’s SS scandal

https://www.rt.com/news/584101-western-media-nazi-canada/

“Fighting against the USSR didn’t necessarily make you a Nazi,” Politico says. Maybe. But Yaroslav Hunka definitely was one

Historical revisionists are now trying to argue that actual Nazi soldiers were just anti-Soviet resisters.

We knew that it was coming. It was only a matter of time. And now attempts to whitewash the actions of actual Nazis from WWII have begun – all because a bunch of ignoramuses in the Canadian parliament cheered one alongside Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, and it all just makes Ukraine and its Western supporters look bad.

It also makes Western lawmakers look like they have no clue when it comes to Nazism in Ukraine – either past or present. So instead of asking questions about their judgment, it’s time to ask whether you’ve just misunderstood Nazis.

The newly-resigned Canadian House Speaker introduced Ukrainian one-time Waffen-SS soldier Yaroslav Hunka as a Ukrainian (and naturalized Canadian) who fought Russians back in the day, yet apparently no one bothered to do the math. The Soviet Union was allied with the West against Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany was who fought against the Russians. Okay, it wasn’t the only one – there were others, like the Polish Home Army, which fought against both the Soviets and the Germans. So maybe Hunka was part of that? That’s the theoretical explanation the German Foreign Office offered when it emerged that the German ambassador to Canada was also present at the standing ovation in parliament. Yeah, that must have been it. A Ukrainian going to war to protect Ukraine from the Soviet Union by joining the Polish Home Army. Sounds plausible.

Oh, no, wait, he was actually in the Waffen SS, namely the First Galician Division – a unit that mostly consisted of Ukrainians and killed Poles and Jews. He joined it voluntarily and later described his decision in an essay published by an American online magazine. And now Poland wants him extradited for alleged war crimes. Continue...

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that former House of Commons speaker Anthony Rota was either an “idiot” or a “villain” and parliament was “disgusting” for applauding a former Nazi.

“If the speaker of the Canadian parliament says that during World War II this Canadian-Ukrainian or Ukrainian-Canadian Nazi fought against the Russians, he cannot help but understand that he fought on the side of Hitler,” Putin said at a Thursday meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club in Sochi, Russia.

“I in no way want to offend the feelings of the Canadian people. We relate to Canada no matter what, with respect especially to the people. But if he doesn’t know that Hitler and his minions fought against Russia during the war, then he’s an idiot,” Putin said, to chuckles and applause from the audience.

“It means he just didn’t go to school, has no basic knowledge. But if he knows that this man fought on Hitler’s side and calls him a hero of Ukraine and a hero of Canada, then he is a villain. Either this or that.” Continue...

Jeftovic: Canada's Multi-Generational Gold Gaffe

https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/jeftovic-canadas-multi-generational-gold-gaffe

Canadian leaders don’t just hate gold. They must hate prosperity itself.

After looking poised to rack up fresh all-time-highs (in USD terms) earlier this year, the gold price has experienced somewhat of a dump lately. It’s possible the market believes the likes of Paul Krugman – who is taking victory laps because inflation has been supposedly been defeated without bringing on a recession (he calls it a win for “Team long transitory”, whatever that‘s supposed to mean).

We can debate whether we’re in a recession now, as the likes of Marc Faber opine, (“I believe that the US economy is in properly measured ‘real terms’ already in recession” – GBD, October ’23) – or that the Fed has deftly maneuvered a soft landing with nary a recession in sight.

However you anybody watching the rate at which central banks around the world are hoovering up the yellow metal, would think they’re positioning for something and it isn’t a soft landing. Central bank bullion purchases set a fresh record over the first half of 2023 at over 200 tonnes.

So who is backing up the truck?

Not many surprises there, (except maybe the ECB) and the Q2 net numbers were dampened because Turkey – who has been in a slow motion firefight with high inflation for over twenty years had to sell off a boatload to support the Lira. The takeaway from that is they had gold reserves to support their financial system.

Fourth largest gold producer in the world.

Of the top gold producing nations in the world, Canada is number four.

Canada stands out contrary to all the other top gold producing nations, as it is the only top ten producers where the central bank’s FX reserves holds no gold. Zero, nada.

Even Ghana, the sixth top producing nation, whose national GDP is about the same size as Oakville, Ontario has 8 tonnes of gold squirrelled away.

After steadily selling down its gold reserves since the 60’s Continue...

Oil production to reach record high in two years, upon completion of Trans Mountain pipeline

https://tnc.news/2023/10/07/oil-production-tmx/

A recent report from Deloitte Canada predicts that production of oil in Canada is set to reach a record high by 2025, largely thanks to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.

The report says that the pipeline, connecting Alberta’s oil sands to the West Coast, will add approximately 375,000 barrels of oil per day to Canada’s production output.

Current projections indicate that the Trans Mountain Expansion will be completed by 2024 and enter into operation.

The completed pipeline will increase Canada’s oil production by 8% compared to its previous peak in November 2022 and nearly nine percent compared to June 2023.

The growth is more than what Canada’s oil production has increased in the past five years combined.

“The increase in volume is notable: it’s greater than the total amount added to Canada’s production levels over the past five years combined,” analysts wrote.

The pipeline expansion will also help Canada sell its oil to more places beyond the United States.

Right now, most of Canada’s oil goes to the U.S., but this expansion will reduce that dependency.

In 2018, the Trans Mountain Expansion was purchased by the federal government for $4.5 billion. To date, the government has considered selling the project to Indigenous groups.

According to the report, this is expected to make Canadian oil prices closer to U.S. prices, which will be good for Canadian oil producers.

Most of the new oil production will be due to oil sands development, where innovation is making it cheaper and faster to get the oil.

The report also mentions that, despite more oil being produced in Canada and the U.S., global oil prices will likely stay high in 2024.

This is not the only recent good news the oil and gas industry has heard.

Estimates reported by the Canadian Energy Centre earlier this month reveal that the oil sands sector will generate nearly half a trillion dollars in tax revenues for Canadians.

Liberal MP breaks ranks with party by voting to repeal carbon tax

https://tnc.news/2023/10/07/liberal-mp-breaks-rank-carbon-tax/

Newfoundland Liberal MP Ken McDonald has broken ranks with the Trudeau government regarding their carbon tax for the second time in the House of Commons.

McDonald also recently stated that Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault was not the right person to convey the party’s messaging to Atlantic Candians on the environmental front.

On Wednesday, McDonald, who serves the Avalon riding in Newfoundland and Labrador, voted alongside the federal Conservatives to repeal the carbon tax

He was the only member of the Liberal, NDP or Bloc Québécois caucuses to vote for a repeal.

“Everywhere I go, people come up to me and say, you know, ‘We’re losing faith in the Liberal party’,” said McDonald in an interview with CBC News.

“I think they will lose seats not just in Newfoundland, not just in Atlantic Canada, but indeed right across the country if they don’t get a grasp on this the way that I think they should.… And if an election were called today, I’m not sure if the Liberal party would actually form the government.”

Additionally, McDonald also expressed uncertainty that federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault was the right candidate to sell the idea of the carbon tax to those living in Atlantic Canada.

“He’s not, because he’s so entrenched in it,” said McDonald. “And I get it, where he came from, and his whole idea of making a big difference in climate change, but you can’t do it all overnight. You can’t make it more expensive on people than what they can handle. And that’s exactly what’s happening right now.” Continue...

Western University’s Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion is forcing its staff, faculty and students to complete a mandatory “anti-racism” learning module before November 24th.

The London, Ont. university sent an email to its staff and students Oct. 3, warning them that the “Building Inclusivity through Anti-Racism” online module is “required training,” with a passing grade of 80%.

“To make this [inclusivity] possible, it is critical that we participate in the process of learning and unlearning to dismantle the systemic barriers embedded in our societal and institutional culture,” reads the email.

Western students and staff have until Nov. 24 to complete the 45-minute program.

While Western University is mandating that all staff and students complete the module before the November deadline, the university has not made clear what the repercussions for failing to complete it are.

While the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada did not explain the account closures, the figures obtained excluded substantiated terrorism and money laundering as reasons.

Over 800 Canadians have been “de-banked” since 2018, including hundreds of Freedom Convoy supporters.

According to figures obtained through an access-to-information request, Blacklock’s Reporter learned of 837 residents whose respective banks closed their accounts over the past half-decade.

The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada said it only knew of those closures through complaints filed with regulators. While the agency did not explain the closures, the figures said it excluded substantiated terrorism and money laundering.

But among those complaints are 267 bank accounts and 170 bitcoin wallets from Freedom Convoy supporters, with an estimated $7.8 million in holdings.

“We primarily relied upon the names provided by the RCMP but there were obligations under the order separate that required banks to make their own determinations,” testified Angelina Mason, general counsel for the Bankers Association, at a March 7, 2022 hearing at the Commons finance committee.

“We did not rely on external information,” she told MPs.

“Were there accounts of individuals frozen that did not appear on a list of names submitted by banks to the RCMP?” asked New Democrat MP Daniel Blaikie.

Mason replied: “Yes.”

According to federal law, banks can only cancel account holders in cases of alleged criminality.

Section 627.18.1 of the Bank Act permits banks not to “open a retail deposit account on the request of a natural person” in cases of criminality, fraud or “physical harm, harassment or other abuse.” Continue...

Conservative MPs have been reluctant to speak on the issue publicly upon receiving a directive from party officials not to engage with the media.

The Conservative Party of Canada remains divided on the topic of gender ideology, and is no closer to banning gender transitions for minors as an official party policy.

Since the Conservative Convention last month in Québec City, Radio-Canada spoke anonymously with Conservatives on what the issue means for the party moving forward.

A source with insight into the party dynamics said "there are those who think they can use this issue to make gains with the base, and those who think the bet is too dangerous because it could lose moderate voters."

One Conservative said they expected the party to “move more quickly” on the issue, while another said Poilievre will “be clearer when it’s beneficial for him.”

Since June, Poilievre and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have gone back and forth on the issue of parental rights, with the former telling the federal government to "butt out and let provinces run schools and parents raise kids." Continue...

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland estimated debt charges at $43.9 billion this fiscal year in Budget 2023 — nearly equivalent to the $49.4 billion allocated for medicare.

Canada’s Finance Department does not know how much taxpayers are on the hook for in debt interest costs — yeah, you heard that right.

Finance department managers testified at the Senate finance committee October 3 and provided no reason why the figure eluded them.

Senator Elizabeth Marshall, a former provincial auditor, expressed disbelief over the fact, reported Blacklock’s Reporter.

“I just made that statement that you can’t give us a number for revised public debt charges,” she told the committee. “I find the government is very secretive about information.”

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland testified May 16 at the Commons finance committee that debt charges are “handleable” but did not elaborate.

“I am really opposed to fiscal fear mongering by the Conservatives,” she told MPs. “I think it’s important to put all numbers in context. Our debt service charges are absolutely handleable.”

Interest rates have risen a half point since Parliament tabled the budget March 28, segwaying to Marshall’s next question.

The senator asked finance if they had a revised estimate for public debt charges this year given that interest rates are up from 2022.

Evelyn Dancey, assistant deputy finance minister, told the senator they did not, reported Blacklock’s Reporter.

“Is it that you have the number and won’t disclose it, or you don’t have the number?” asked Marshall. She replied: “Currently we are undertaking our fall forecast.” Continue...

A recent slew of ethics violations has left the Privy Council needing 'ongoing,' 'expert' advice.

After several ethics scandals plaguing the Prime Minister, the Privy Council Office is hiring someone to provide "timely ethics advice."

According to the Merx posting for the job:

"The Privy Council Office’s Impact and Innovation Unit requires ongoing access to timely, expert research ethics advice and ethics reviews for studies conducted within its behavioural science programs of applied research."

Prime Minister Trudeau has had multiple ethics rulings against him, including one for taking a gift vacation from the Aga Khan, a religious leader whose charity receives tax dollars.

The replacement for Anthony Rota in the speaker's chair, Liberal MP Greg Fergus, was found guilty of ethics violations earlier in the year.

Fergus intervened on behalf of a TV channel that was applying for mandatory carriage with the CRTC.

Canada’s health agency is facing criticism for extensive cellphone tracking initiatives but hides behind privacy laws to evade disclosure of what data they collected.

Canada’s health agency is facing criticism for withholding thousands of pages of extensive cellphone tracking data under the Access To Information Act.

The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) hid behind “commercial confidentiality” as the reason for not disclosing weekly reports derived from cellphone towers across the country throughout the pandemic, as reported by Blacklocks.

The agency “leveraged anonymized, population-aggregated, near real-time mobile device location data to estimate dynamic changes in population mobility patterns across the country,” asserting that “data contains only a unique device ID and there is no information pertaining to users themselves.”

While the agency withheld data under section 20.1 of the Act, unredacted information details that they tracked travel to elementary schools, airports, work and “most common day home locations.”

The EU’s top diplomat on Thursday said the European bloc could not provide Ukraine with enough support without the US amid uncertainty about when Congress might authorize the next tranche of spending on the proxy war.

"Europe cannot fill the gap of the US," Josep Borrell said after arriving in Spain for a gathering of European leaders, according to POLITICO.

The EU is close to approving a new economic aid package for Ukraine worth 50 billion euros that would cover 2024-2027, although Hungary could further delay the package. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the massive aid package should be approved within the next few months but said US support still remains crucial.

Von der Leyen also said she was "confident" that the US would continue supporting Ukraine but acknowledged she wasn’t sure when new spending would be authorized.

According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, the US has another tranche of economic aid worth over $1 billion to fund the Ukrainian government through the month of October. If a new aid package isn’t authorized by Congress in the next month, the funds will dry up. Continue...

Jordan Peterson attributes Canada’s low birth rate to attack on the traditional family

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/jordan-peterson-attributes-canadas-low-birth-rate-to-attack-on-the-traditional-family/

The psychologist says the country's decline in births is not due to rising housing prices as a recent editorial suggests.

Canada’s most prominent anti-woke psychologist Jordan Peterson says the reason for the country’s low birth rates is due to a society that has “demonized family and children” and not, as a recent media report suggests, because of high housing prices.

“Yeah No,” Peterson posted to X (formerly Twitter) yesterday in response to a recent National Post opinion piece titled “Canada’s birth rate has dropped off a cliff (and it’s likely because nobody can afford housing).”

Peterson said the low birth rate in Canada is a result of a society that has demonized fatherhood and motherhood as an alternative to “idiot careerism” for 60 years.

Under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, mainly due to excessive COVID money printing, inflation has skyrocketed.

The National Post report cited data from Statistics Canada, with the report claiming that “Canadians are abandoning child-rearing faster than ever. Statistics Canada has hinted that the skyrocketing cost of shelter probably has a lot to do with it.”

A recent report from September 5 by Statistics Canada shows food prices are rising faster than headline inflation, at a rate of between 10% to 18% year over year.

House prices have also shot up due to short supply in the market, and speculative buying and interest rates have risen to highs not seen for decades.

Canada’s birth rate has been in a steady decline for some time now, with statistics showing the 2022 overall rate at 1.33 child per female, a decline from 1.51 in 2018.

A total of 351,679 babies were born in 2022, a number that has not been this low since 2005. Continue...

Vancouver sees 32% spike in homelessness since 2020: survey

https://tnc.news/2023/10/08/vancouver-spike-homelessness/

Greater Vancouver has seen a record-high surge in homelessness over the past three years, a new survey reveals.

The Homelessness Services Association of BC (HSABC) unveiled the results of the 2023 Point-in-Time Homeless Census for Greater Vancouver on Thursday, indicating a significant uptick in the population of individuals without stable housing within the region.

This census, which is carried out every three years by volunteers, encompasses a comprehensive survey of both sheltered and homeless individuals during a 24-hour span in early March.

The findings revealed a substantial 32% surge in homelessness since 2020.

“Increases were measured across all 11 communities surveyed, with most communities measuring record numbers of people identified as experiencing homelessness,” wrote the HSABC.

The report highlights the expansion of homelessness in each of the communities captured by the count, with most communities witnessing record-high numbers of people facing housing insecurity.

It is also noteworthy that over 50% of the individuals counted were within shelter facilities, while nearly half of those not in shelters were on the street. Continue...

CAMPUS WATCH: Queen’s nature-based DEI project open to students who “identify as fat”

https://tnc.news/2023/10/08/queens-dei-fat-students/

A Queen’s University “diversity, equity and inclusion” (DEI) project seeking to “reclaim space in outdoor culture” is open to graduate applicants who “identify as fat.”

The “Reclaiming Nature Spaces” project is also open to visible minorities, LGBTQ people, and those who are disabled, amid the scholars behind the project claiming that outdoor culture has been “historically been white, able-bodied, heterosexual, (and) male” dominated.

A project overview document obtained by True North notes that “racialized people, women, the LGBTQ+ community, disabled people, and those who identify as fat have all created grassroots programs to support each other in a constellation of resistance against what outdoor culture has historically been: white, able-bodied, heterosexual, male.”

The project “seeks to uplift and amplify these structures of resistance by learning from and with the very people who are doing what their ancestors could not do.”

The multi-site project has several objectives to “reclaim” outdoor culture. These include challenging “dominant narratives that reproduce the white heteropatriarchy and tend to recolonize outdoor culture” and learning how groups “navigate, negotiate, resist, and interpret recreation on stolen (Indigenous) land.”

The project is being funded by a Government of Canada grant. A $12,000 annual stipend will be given to successful applicants – in addition to scholarships and teaching assistant opportunities. Continue...

CBC reportedly instructs journalists not to refer to perpetrators of deadly Israeli rampage as ‘terrorists’

https://www.rebelnews.com/cbc_reportedly_instructs_journalists_not_to_refer_to_perpetrators_of_deadly_israeli_rampage_as_terrorists

A leaked email allegedly from CBC’s director of journalistic standards says that journalists should refrain from referring to Hamas gunmen as ‘terrorists’.

As the confirmed death toll of yesterday’s horrific attack on Israel surpasses 600, CBC is apparently telling its journalists not to refer to the perpetrators as terrorists.

An email circulating on social media appears to show CBC’s director of journalistic standards, George Achi, telling journalists to “use fact-based language” and not to refer to “militants” as terrorists.

Dozens of videos circulating online yesterday showed Hamas gunmen murdering and abducting Israeli civilians including women, children, and the elderly.

Hamas is currently designated as a terrorist organization by the Government of Canada.

Despite these unprecedented attacks, CBC’s director of journalistic standards also purportedly instructed journalists to not describe 2005 as “the end of the occupation.”

Speaking further about not using the word terrorist, the director wrote that “terrorism remains heavily politicized.”

Fighting remains ongoing as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that the country is now in a state of war.

https://tnc.news/2023/10/08/liberal-staffer-palestinian-violence/

A senior advisor to a Liberal cabinet minister shared an Instagram post condoning Palestinian “revolutionary violence” and using a hashtag calling for the destruction of Israel.

Brandon Montour, who is listed as a senior legal affairs advisor to Liberal Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Gary Anandasangaree on the federal government’s employee directory, also shared a post supporting Palestinian liberation through “whatever means necessary.”

The sharing of the posts came amid unprecedented Hamas attacks on Israel that have so far killed more than 600 Israeli soldiers and civilians and kidnapped 100 hostages, including children and seniors – with one senior Israeli official calling it “our 9/11.” Terrorists fired thousands of rockets and dozens of Palestinian gunmen infiltrated Israeli territory on Saturday.

The same day, Montour shared an Instagram post saying “revolutionary violence is not terrorism. It’s a fight for liberation.” The post was shared from a “Marxist-Leninist, Proletarian feminist” account.

The post contained three other images, including one of Hamas terrorists capturing Israeli soldiers and one that read “resistance doesn’t happen only by violence, but violence is the mainstream.”

The post had the caption “Go Palestine” and the hashtags #destroyisrael, #destroyimperialism, #destroycolonialism, #freepalestine and #revolution. Continue...

Average cost of farmland spiked by over 12% nationwide: Farm Credit Canada

https://tnc.news/2023/10/09/farmland-spike-nationwide/

The average cost of farmland in Canada has spiked by over 12% since last year, a new report by Farm Credit Canada (FCC) has found.

Prices surged by 12.2 percent between July 2022 and June 2023. According to FCC, this upward trend persists in spite of the efforts to manage inflation via interest rate hikes.

“Even if higher interest rates are slowly eroding buyers’ purchasing power, limited availability of farmland for sale is generally still pushing prices higher,” wrote analysts.

“Higher borrowing costs and pressures on the Canadian and global economies have made farm operations cautious regarding capital expenditures and investment. On the other hand, a limited supply of farmland available for sale and robust farm income have contributed to higher land values in the first six months of 2023.”

The highest spike in farmland prices, 17%, was reported in Saskatchewan. Continue...

OP-ED: Collective amnesia and Marxism’s infiltration of the West

https://tnc.news/2023/10/09/eldon-marxism-infiltration/

The West’s trajectory into the realm of a reimagined Marxism has been nothing short of catastrophic – historically, but never more so than in the present. Marked by the rise of postmodern neo-Marxism, wokism and nihilism, this resurgence has infiltrated society in academia, corporations, the entertainment industry and our legislative bodies.

It is a trajectory that demands our attention and invites reflection on how we reached this point and what it might mean for our future.

Akin to the Hell of Milton’s Paradise Lost, our universities have seen a multiplication in their subjects bent on destruction under the mantle of Marx, perhaps the most dangerous intellectual ever to have lived. As a consequence of his doctrine’s implementation across all contexts it was imposed in, Marx became responsible for the deaths of up to 100 million people the world over, according to Stéphane Courtois and other scholars in the authoritative Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression.

In my previous columns, “Wokism and the End of Academic Standards” and “Canada’s Cultural Revolution,” I recalled the path I embarked on to become a writer, envisioning myself securing a tenured position at a Canadian university that would sustain my creative pursuits. The idea of teaching and writing – like W.H. Auden did, like T.S. Eliot did – held immense appeal, though I was also aware of the significance of the journey outward: travelling, accumulating a treasury of experiences that would challenge my worldview, honing the language that compelled my spirit to creation.

P.E.I. MLA removed from committees after questioning female paramedic strength

https://tnc.news/2023/10/09/pei-mla-removed-female-paramedics/

Prince Edward Island Premier Dennis King has removed one of his MLAs from all legislative standing committees following comments he’d made about female paramedics.

“Not to be sexist or anything like that, is there a stronger recruitment towards males or females?” asked Progressive Conservative Summerside-Wilmot MLA Tyler DesRoches, while questioning the director of operations for Medavie Health Services, Darcy Clinton.

The questioning occurred during a meeting of the health and social development committee. Medavie operates the ambulance service for the province.

“I just notice a lot more females in the profession now and we get a lot of calls for lift assist because — don’t get me wrong, they’re great, some of the women that are doing it are unbelievable — but I went to a lift assist the other day because both the females that were working the bus were 105 pounds and the man was 300 pounds and there was no way they were going to get him up,” said DesRoches.

DesRoches is also a volunteer firefighter and medical first responder. Continue...

In Mississauga, joyous crowds were seen celebrating the death of over 600 Israelis. Israel faced a surprise unprovoked terrorist attack from Hamas early Saturday, with shocking celebrations occurring in Western countries.

Several dozen supporters of Hamas, the Palestinian fundamentalist Islamic terrorist group, gathered late night in a Mississauga plaza to dance, cheer and honk their horns while waving Palestinian flags to show their support of the recent attacks on Israelis. The attacks, which began early on Saturday morning, included the execution and kidnappings of civilians and that has lead to over 600 casualties, with some already referring to the terror offensive as "Israel's 9/11.

Over 2,000 Dead in Afghanistan Following Magnitude 6.3 Earthquake

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/2000-dead-afghanistan-following-magnitude-6-3-earthquake/

Over 2,000 people are reported to be dead after a magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck Afghanistan on Saturday.

The densely populated area near Herat was the hardest hit.

The quake was followed by aftershocks measuring magnitude 6.3, 5.9, and 5.5, and some lesser shocks.

Rescue workers and volunteers were digging through the rubble with shovels and their hands trying to pull people from the wreckage on Sunday.

“Entire villages were flattened, bodies were trapped under collapsed houses and locals waited for help without even shovels to dig people out,” the Associated Press reports. “Living and dead, victims were trapped under rubble, their faces grey with dust.”

At least 1,300 homes were also destroyed in the natural disaster.

“Most people were shocked … some couldn’t even talk. But there were others who couldn’t stop crying and shouting,” photographer Omid Haqjoo, who visited four villages Sunday, told The Associated Press.

A Taliban government spokesperson said that if the death toll is confirmed, it would be the deadliest one to strike the country in two decades.

An earthquake in June 2022 killed approximately 1,000 Afghan people.

The AP reports, “People in Herat freed a baby girl from a collapsed building after she was buried up to her neck in debris. A hand cradled the baby’s torso as rescuers eased the child out of the ground. Rescuers said it was the baby’s mother. It was not clear if the mother survived.”

“There’s not much disaster management capacity and what there is can’t cover people on the ground,” said Salma Ben Aissa, the committee’s country director for Afghanistan told the outlet. “The numbers (of dead) are increasing hour by hour.”

On Friday, the genetic testing company 23andMe confirmed that data from a subset of users, targeting those with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, has been compromised and listed for sale online.

Wired reports that the company suggests its systems were not breached but that the attackers were able to gather data by guessing the login credentials of a group of users and then using the feature DNA Relatives to scrape additional information to compile the list.

It is reported that the list of 999,999 people who have Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry has been shared on the internet, including the Dark Web.

The database includes first and last names, sex, and 23andMe’s evaluation of where their ancestors came from. Although most of the people targeted are not famous, the database is titled “ashkenazi DNA Data of Celebrities” and appears to have been sorted to only include people with Ashkenazi heritage.

The Canadian Union of Public Employees has again roused the fury of Canadians for taking a radical political stand. This time local 3906, representing over 3,000 taxpayer-funded employees in the Hamilton area, made a since-deleted post on X Saturday in response to the Hamas invasion of Israel.

“Palestine is rising, long live the resistance.”

Accompanying this call to arms for an execrable terrorist organization was this completely dissonant quotation that someone equated the murder of women and children to “love.”

CUPE cited a quote from writer Ghassan Kanafani, which stated, “Everything in this world can be robbed and stolen, except one thing; this one thing is the love that emanates from a human being towards a solid commitment to a conviction or cause.”

General Motors' Canadian plants were hit with labor disruption after Unifor, the union representing Canadian auto workers, failed to secure a labor contract with the automaker late last night. Consequently, about 4,300 Unifor workers walked off the job at three locations around midnight. This compounds the challenges for the automaker, which is already dealing with strikes at US plants.

Reuters said the walkout was triggered when GM "stubbornly refused" to match Unifor's contract demands already met at Canadian Ford Motor plants, which are wage increases of up to 25% for workers over the life of the contract. "The company continues to fall short on our pension demands, income supports for retired workers, and meaningful steps to transition temporary workers into permanent, full-time jobs," Unifor National President Lana Payne said.

Online Child Pornography Skyrockets

https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/online-child-pornography-skyrockets

The amount of online child sexual abuse has skyrocketed in the past few years, according to the latest annual report of the UK-based NGO and watchdog, the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF). As many as 255,588 URLs were confirmed to contain images or videos of the abuse last year, up from 132,676 URLs in 2019.

As Statista's Anna Fleck reports, this rise is partly being linked to the pandemic, when lockdowns meant more people - including younger children - were staying at home and turning online for longer periods of time than before. According to child safety experts, this increased exposure could have left them more vulnerable to communities of criminals looking to find and manipulate children into recording their own sexual abuse on camera.

According to the report, “self-generated” content has become particularly prevalent in this time, with the number of confirmed URLs containing images or videos of “self-generated” material rising from 38,424 confirmed cases in 2019 to 199,363 in 2022. Continue...

China Makes Advances In Space Lasers, Microwave Weapons

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/china-makes-advances-space-lasers-microwave-weapons

The People's Liberation Army, the army of the Chinese Communist Party, recently announced a breakthrough on a key weapons programs that may change the nature of war.

Chinese scientists claim they've had unexpected success in developing a high-powered microwave (HPM) weapon, according to The Diplomat. The magazine notes that in January, Huang Wenhua, deputy director of China's Northwest Institute of Nuclear Technology, was awarded for his research on directed energy, which HPM weapons use.

HPM systems are able to destroy electronic equipment, and in an age when most combat systems—from tanks to planes, radios to satellites—rely on electronics, the weapons could change the way wars are fought. Warships will be fitted with HPM weapons to intercept incoming missiles.

The HPM project, alongside other projects involving lasers and electromagnetic pulses, is part of the Chinese regime's "Assassin's Mace" (or "Trump Card") program designed to defeat a technologically superior opponent by disabling or destroying the technology that makes the opponent superior.

COVID Reinfections Clear Faster, Including In Unvaccinated People: Study

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/covid-reinfections-clear-faster-including-unvaccinated-people-study

Reinfections cleared faster than initial COVID-19 infections, including among people who never received a COVID-19 vaccine, according to a new study.

People infected with COVID-19 for a second time cleared the illness a mean of 6.6 days, compared with a mean of 9.3 days for the initial infection, U.S. and British researchers reported in the paper.

Researchers drew the findings from 1,796 first infections and 193 second infections.

The difference held for a subset of 71 people who had two well-documented infections.

Among that subset, the mean clearance time was 6.3 days, down from 9.2 days.

"Immunity from a first SARS-CoV-2 infection affects the viral kinetics of a second SARS-CoV-2 infection principally by speeding up viral clearance and thus shortening the overall time of acute infection," the researchers, including Dr. Yonatan Grad of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, wrote.

SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19.

The researchers also found that people who cleared infections quickly the first time also cleared them quickly the second time. Continue...

Gates Foundation announces new funding for ‘low-cost’ mRNA vaccine in Africa

https://www.rt.com/africa/584541-gates-foundation-africa-mrna-vaccine-funding/

Two companies to get $5 million each to buy the technology needed for developing locally relevant vaccines, the organization says

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has announced that it is committing $40 million in funding to enhance access in parts of Africa to a “low-cost” mRNA vaccine research and manufacturing platform for targeted protection against the various diseases afflicting the continent.

The non-profit organization said on Monday that Quantoom Biosciences, a Belgian biotech company, will receive $20 million to “further advance the technology and lower costs for commercialization.” The Institut Pasteur de Dakar in Senegal and Biovac in South Africa have each been allocated $5 million to purchase the technology, the foundation stated.

“The Gates Foundation will grant another $10 million to other LMIC [low- and middle-income countries] vaccine manufacturers to be named,” it announced.

An mRNA vaccine employs a method that determines what part of a virus the human immune system should target in order to kill a pathogen.

While vaccines made using mRNA is said to have revolutionized the global response to the Covid-19 pandemic, access to care was unequal, prompting efforts to use this technology for combating existing threats that disproportionately affect lower-income nations, like malaria and tuberculosis.

Earlier this year, the World Health Organization (WHO) established a technology transfer hub in Cape Town, South Africa, to facilitate the production of sustainable mRNA vaccines. It also aimed to strengthen regulatory capabilities in order to expedite regional approval and distribution of mRNA vaccines in LMICs. Afrigen Biologics, one of the hub’s partners, is already producing Africa’s first mRNA vaccine for Covid-19 in the lab.

The Gates Foundation, in addition to funding efforts to eradicate diseases such as malaria and polio, according to reports earlier this year, is the second largest donor to the WHO. It poured enormous amounts of money into vaccine development during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Critics have expressed concerns about the foundation holding excessive power in the global health sector, including its alleged influence within the WHO, in the absence of adequate accountability mechanisms. According to critics, Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates has amassed more wealth as a philanthropist than as a software magnate. A 2020 investigation also discovered that the Gates Foundation had made nearly $250 million in tax-deductible “charitable” grants to companies in which it owned stock.

The organization’s latest funding announcement, which it says follows a previous $55 million investment in mRNA manufacturing technology, has been welcomed as a means of advancing life-saving technology development on the continent by the African labs it supports.

“Expanding our capacity to discover and manufacture affordable mRNA vaccines in Africa is an important and necessary step towards vaccine self-reliance in the region,” Amadou Sall, chief executive of the Institut Pasteur de Dakar, said.

Look's father Alain announced his son's death via a Facebook post, verifying that he had been murdered at the festival.

"Like a true warrior, he left like a hero, wanting to protect the people he was with," Look wrote, according to CTV, calling his son "a force of nature, with a unique charisma and unparalleled generosity." Continue...

The pro-Israel rally at Mel Lastman Square had thousands of attendees who heard from politicians including Olivia Chow and Chrystia Freeland.

Thousands of demonstrators took to Mel Lastman Square in Toronto last night in support of Israel after the country was brutally attacked by Hamas terrorists over the weekend. The confirmed death toll of the attacks is now approaching 1,000.

Politicians including Conservative MP Melissa Lanstman, Mayor Olivia Chow, and Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland spoke at the rally and condemned the brutality of Hamas terrorists.

Despite the massive support for Israel at the gathering, Hamas apologists were present outside of the rally. One said that he doesn't "feel sorry for people who support the Zionists."

There was a large police presence at the rally.

Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, who recently deleted a controversial tweet after the vicious attacks against Israel, also spoke at the rally.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre condemned Hamas in no uncertain terms as "sadistic" and "demonic" while speaking about the brutal attacks over the weekend.

Poilievre also condemned the "disgusting" celebrations of the Hamas attacks.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also condemned the attacks, saying, "Hamas terrorists aren’t a resistance, they aren’t freedom fighters.”

As news of the large-scale atrocities against Israelis hit the Western media on Sunday, Edmonton's mayor, a former cabinet minister in Justin Trudeau's Liberal government, tweeted that Israel was 'targeting innocent civilians.'

Sunday evening, revellers blared music and amassed in Castle Downs Park for speeches and vehicle convoys to show support for Hamas terror attacks across Israel that have left close to 1,000 dead, thousands injured and hundreds held hostage in Gaza.

A massive Palestinian flag was unfurled on the grass in the park. At the same time, speakers claimed a human right to the wave of rapes, beheadings, shootings, arsons and kidnappings of civilians in Israel by Iranian-backed terrorists across Israel over the weekend.

"There is no such thing as an Israeli civilian." Continue...

Canadian charity calls Israel ‘sadistic’ after Hamas killed over a thousand non-combatants, foreign nationals

Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East called Israel ‘sadistic’ and ‘barbaric’ after acts of barbarism by Hamas left more than 1,000 dead over the weekend.

The devastating attacks in Israel have left one federal charity unsympathetic to the suffering of non-combatant Israelis by Hamas, a designated terrorist entity.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East called Israel “sadistic” and “barbaric” after acts of barbarism by Hamas left more than 1,000 dead over the weekend, mostly Jews.

On October 7, Israeli Energy Minister Israel Katz ordered the halting of all power to Gaza after the Palestinian militant group launched a surprise terrorist attack on the country.

"I have signed an order instructing (Israel) Electric Company to stop the electricity supply to Gaza," Katz told reporters.

These are among several security measures imposed by the Israeli government to destroy the capabilities of Hamas "for many years," including cutting fuel and prohibiting the entry of goods into the region.

Within hours of the terrorist attacks, Canadians for Peace accused Israel of “brutal daily violence” and ulterior motives.

“Israel appears to be using this crisis as a pretext to escalate its devastating violence on the people of the occupied and besieged Gaza Strip,” it wrote.

In a news release, they called Israel a “racist military occupation” that promotes “apartheid policies” upon the Palestinians.

“Israel is set to cut off electricity to a besieged population of more than two million Palestinians,” they said, calling this “a sadistic act” and “an obvious war crime.”

“What do these barbaric attacks have to do with security?”

According to the Income Tax Act, the federal government prohibits charities from “directly or indirectly” supporting any listed terrorist group.

Canada blacklisted Hamas as a terrorist organization in November 2002. Continue...
