Kurakhovo Has Fallen: On the Last Day of the Year, Russian Forces Conquer Key Donetsk Logistics Hub With the Last Ukrainian Coking Coal Plant
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/kurakhovo-has-fallen-last-day-year-russian-forces/
2024 ended with a BANG in the Donetsk region, disputed by Russia and Ukraine in some of the largest battles since WW2.
On the last day of December, the Russian 5th brigade raised their flag over the Kurakhovo industrial zone, last bastion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the city.
They really ruined the whole New Year for the Ukrainians.
Three factories in the Kurakhovo industrial zone are now under Moscow control. Continue...

Illegal Immigrant Gang Member from Honduras Kidnaps Texas Woman: Police Reveal Chilling Plot to Sell Her Organs or Force Her Into Prostitution
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/illegal-immigrant-gang-member-honduras-kidnaps-texas-woman/
A 35-year-old Honduran national, identified as Eduardo Javier Ordonez Godoy, has been arrested following the abduction of a 22-year-old woman in Haltom City, Texas.
The incident occurred on Tuesday, December 24, 2024, when the victim was walking to her vehicle at the Acacia Apartments around 4:45 a.m., WFAA reported.
According to police reports, Godoy, who was previously deported back to Honduras for a similar crime, was armed and masked when he forced the woman into her car at gunpoint.
He forced her to withdraw money from a nearby bank and made disturbing threats, including selling her organs or forcing her into prostitution, according to charging documents obtained by Fox 4 News.
After driving her approximately 22 miles to an apartment complex in Grapevine, he restrained her by tying her hands to a tree with her shoelaces before fleeing in her vehicle. The victim managed to free herself and seek help.
Law enforcement agencies tracked the stolen vehicle, locating it in Oklahoma City on December 25.
According to the news release from the Haltom City Police Department: Continue...

Ukraine Cuts Russian Gas Pipeline to Europe to Start the New Year
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/ukraine-cuts-russian-gas-pipeline-europe-start-new/
Ukraine has ceased the transit of Russian natural gas to Europe following the expiration of a pivotal five-year agreement.
This move, effective from January 1, 2025, concludes a longstanding energy arrangement that has been central to Europe’s energy landscape.
The 2019 contract between Ukraine’s Naftogaz and Russia’s Gazprom officially ended on December 31, 2024, effectively cutting off one of the last major routes for Russian gas into Europe.
This pipeline has been transporting approximately 40 billion cubic meters of gas annually to European countries.

Ford Recalls Thousands of Electric Vehicles After Dangerous Defect Is Discovered

Car manufacturing titan Ford appears to be ending 2024 the same way it started — having major issues with its fleets of electric vehicles.
Ford recalled thousands of its electric-powered F-150 Lightning pickup truck series, according to a release from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
“Ford’s team reviewed assembly plant records to determine the population of affected parts,” the release stated. “The front upper control arm ball joint on affected vehicles may not have been properly secured during assembly.” Continue...

https://gatewayhispanic.com/2024/12/trumps-promise-to-expand-the-death-penalty-a-shift-in-u-s-justice-policy/
The elected President of the United States, Donald Trump, promised that his administration will «strongly» seek the death penalty for those who commit violent crimes, in contrast to the policies implemented by outgoing President Joe Biden.
This statement comes shortly after Biden commuted the death sentences of most federal inmates.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump made it clear that once in office, he would instruct the Department of Justice to “vigorously pursue the death penalty to protect American families and children from violent rapists, murderers, and monsters.”
Trump added, “We will be a nation of law and order again!” Continue...>>>/qresearch/22271070

France Launches First Air Raids Over Syria Since Assad's Overthrow
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/france-launches-first-air-raids-over-syria-assads-overthrow
Now France is getting in on the Syria action in the wake of President Bashar al-Assad's overthrow on December 8. Currently the hardline Islamist movement Hayat Tahrir-al-Sham (HTS) holds Damascus and major cities across southern, central, and coastal Syria.
The Turks hold parts of the north near the border (and Turkey's proxies, particularly the the Syrian National Army, or SNA), while the United States still occupies the northeast (also through its proxy the Kurkish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, or SDF). The Israeli military holds an expanse out of the Golan Heights in the south.
France's defense ministry announced Tuesday that its warplanes launched airstrikes against Islamic State (ISIS) over the weekend. Continue...

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-launches-fresh-assault-houthis-yemen-ahead-2025
The war in Yemen and the Red Sea continues to intensify, following several ballistic missiles launched on Israel by the Iran-backed Houthis last week and this month. The pattern is that for whatever the Western coalition throws at the Houthis in terms of bombing raids, the militant group only intensifies its assaults.
The Pentagon announced Tuesday that forces under US Central Command (CENTCOM) have launched fresh attacks on Yemen after the Houthi militants targeted American warships and commercial ships earlier the same day. Continue...

Engineering Reality: A Century Of Cultural Control, Part III - The Algorithmic Age
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/engineering-reality-century-cultural-control-part-iii-algorithmic-age
The Algorithmic Age
Having explored the physical and psychological mechanisms of control in Part One, and their deployment through cultural engineering in Part Two, we now turn to their ultimate evolution: the automation of consciousness control through digital systems.
In my research on the tech-industrial complex, I've documented how today's digital giants weren't simply co-opted by power structures - many were potentially designed from their inception as tools for mass surveillance and social control. From Google's origins in a DARPA-funded CIA project to Amazon's founder's familial ties to ARPA, these weren't just successful startups that later aligned with government interests
What Tavistock discovered through years of careful study—emotional resonance trumps facts, peer influence outweighs authority, and indirect manipulation succeeds where direct propaganda fails—now forms the foundational logic of social media algorithms. Facebook's emotion manipulation study and Netflix's A/B testing of thumbnails (explored in detail later) exemplify the digital automation of these century-old insights, as AI systems perform billions of real-time experiments, continuously refining the art of influence at an unprecedented scale.

Ukrainian border agency posts photo of soldier wearing Nazi symbols
https://www.rt.com/russia/610249-ukraine-border-guard-nazi-symbols/
A picture of a soldier with a Nazi eagle on his uniform has appeared on the Ukrainian Border Guard Service’s official Facebook page
The Ukrainian Border Guard Service has sparked social media uproar after posting a photo of a service member with several distinctively Nazi symbols on his uniform and weapon. The image appeared on the border agency’s official Facebook page in late October but has drawn public attention only recently.
A post dedicated to the “dark” side of the Ukrainian border guard soldiers, that they supposedly only show to “the enemy,” features a picture of a soldier dressed in military uniform and protective gear with a Nazi eagle patch on his chest.
The eagle holding a laurel wreath in its claws with his wings spread apart is depicted against the red-and-black background traditionally associated with the Ukrainian ultra-nationalists and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) – a WWII-era paramilitary entity known for collaborating with the Nazis and for committing numerous war crimes.
The only difference between the Nazi eagle and the one the soldier in question is sporting on his uniform is the Ukrainian trident coat of arms in place of the Nazi swastika inside the laurel. The same soldier is also seen holding an assault rifle with the SS bolts on one of its handles. The SS lightning bolts were a symbol of the Nazi Party’s paramilitary organization, which was condemned at the Nuremberg Tribunal and has since become popular among neo-Nazi and far-right groups.

2012 Whistleblower of the Year Exposed Psycho Pharma Corruption: Continues to Call for Unyielding Accountability
With the recent nomination of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, (HHS) the nation’s premier federal health agency, it’s important to remember Kennedy’s rising star began decades ago by exposing fraudulent medical/corporate research and food safety issues. In a sense, Kennedy is a kind of whistleblower on a national level.
But he’s not the only one and, with Kennedy’s rise to power, AbleChild is reminded of another whistleblower, Allen Jones, whose exposure of dirty dealing between the pharmaceutical industry and state mental health agencies needs to be remembered and recognized.
Afterall, it takes courage to stand up to corruption and Jones, not one to shy away from controversy or be strong-armed into walking away, stood up to the behemoth pharmaceutical industry and ultimately protected children in ways they will never fully understand. Continue...

Another day, another example of tech billionaire and incoming DOGE director Elon Musk flexing his geopolitical muscles and harshly criticizing failing Globalist governments in Europe.
This time, Musk blasted UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer for failing to tackle child grooming gangs when he was Director of Public Prosecutions, and continuing to do so now.
In a post on social platform X, he also called for safeguarding minister Jess Phillips to be jailed for rejecting calls for a public inquiry into historic child abuse in Oldham.
This is the most recent chapter in the war of words between the free-speech advocate and the government, which began during last summer’s riots, when he claimed ‘civil war is inevitable’ in the UK.

https://gatewayhispanic.com/2025/01/sweden-breaks-with-unrwa-a-blow-to-pro-hamas-bias-in-gaza/
Sweden has decided to cease its funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) starting in 2024, replacing its support with funds directed to other humanitarian organizations operating in Gaza. This move responds to a scenario in which UNRWA faces accusations from Israel of indirectly collaborating with Hamas, especially following the attacks on October 7, 2023, which triggered the current war in Gaza.
UNRWA was created after the Nakba of 1948 to assist Palestinian refugees and has been a fundamental pillar in providing services such as education, health, and food in Gaza.

Who Funds The National Women’s Law Center?
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/who-funds-national-womens-law-center/
StopFundingLeftistNGOs.com applied advanced, quantum-speed technology uncovering the hidden connections between the National Women’s Law Center and the vast, Leftist Dark Money world.
The CEO of the National Women’s Law Center, Fatima Graves is married to former U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves – a chief weaponizer of the Justice Department.
Uncovering these connections allows viewers to see how the Dark Money Leftist world uses innocent-sounding organizations to do its work.
Leftist NGOs are parasitic.
Leftists support themselves, as this video shows, in high style – on the boards or as executives of innocent-sounding organizations.
They produce nothing.
Leftists operate in a multi-billion-dollar-a-year hidden world of NGOs supporting extreme operators, moving from one NGO to another – working to undermine mainstream American institutions.
NGOs are often funded by some of the most sinister foreign billionaires – yet operate in the U.S. with tax-exempt status.
Leftists fund NGOs – tens of billions of dollars – and these organizations do what the government is afraid to openly do:
NGOs fund the Taliban.
NGOs fund late term abortion legislation, NGOs, particularly religious ones, fund the mass movement of illegal aliens over the border.
NGOs fund district attorneys who set criminals free. Continue...

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/houston-mosque-reportedly-attended-new-orleans-terrorist-instructs/
Masjid Bilal ISGH, a mosque in Houston reportedly attended by the New Orleans terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar, has instructed its members not to speak to the FBI.
Instead, the mosque advised its congregation to direct law enforcement inquiries to the radicals of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) or the Islamic Society of Greater Houston (ISGH).
Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran who was discharged from the Army Reserve in 2020 with the rank of staff sergeant, converted to Islam before spiraling into erratic behavior, according to family members who spoke with far-left New York Times.
Dwayne Marsh, married to Jabbar’s ex-wife, noted the suspect’s increasingly bizarre actions, including cutting his hair drastically and displaying erratic behavior that prompted them to restrict his access to his daughters.
Jabbar had moved into a predominantly Muslim neighborhood north of Houston approximately a year ago.
Following the New Orleans attack, FBI investigators descended on the area, including the local mosque, Masjid Bilal ISGH.
Meanwhile, Masjid Bilal ISGH issued a statement to its members that many have criticized as an attempt to obstruct justice.
In a Facebook post, Masjid Bilal ISGH’s leadership instructed its members to avoid speaking to the media and, if approached by the FBI, to refer inquiries to CAIR or ISGH.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/after-two-years-power-giorgia-melonis-conservative-government/
Having been chosen by POLITICO as ‘the most powerful person in Europe’, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is on a roll.
And all the accolades she has been receiving – such as the ‘Atlantic Council’s Global Citizen Award’ – are not given in vain. She remains one of the few viable Western leaders, as Macron, Scholz, Trudeau, and so many others are floundering.
As a good example of tangible results by Meloni, today it arose that her government has blocked nearly 200,000 migrants from crossing the Mediterranean to Italy since coming to power two years ago.
Sure enough, it’s not perfection, since in 2024, 66,000 migrants still reached Italy by sea. But that compares positively with 157,000 in 2023 and 105,000 in 2022. Continue...

A federal judge has thrown out a lawsuit brought by Texas against Pfizer, finding that U.S. law protects Pfizer due to the emergency declared over the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several laws shield Pfizer from claims that it misrepresented the efficacy of its vaccine, U.S. District Judge Sam R. Cummings said in the Dec. 30 ruling.
“The Court finds that as a matter of law under the circumstances of this case, the Defendant is entitled to immunity under the Public Readiness and Emergency Act (PREP Act),” Cummings wrote.
He also said that both the PREP Act and the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, preempt the allegations from Texas. Continue...

The US could be in the very early stages of recovery after a decade of toxic ESG and Net Zero initiatives, widely criticized as one of the biggest financial and ideological blunders in a generation. Wall Street firms increasingly recognize that the "woke capitalism" era in corporate America will come to an abrupt end under Trump 2.0.
Bloomberg reports that Morgan Stanley is the latest Wall Street firm to abandon the Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), a group of banks worldwide that push woke climate initiatives.
Morgan Stanley's exit comes after Wells Fargo and Goldman Sachs left NZBA early last month.

https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/court-upholds-78-million-verdict-transit-workers-fired-refusing-covid-19-vaccine
A federal judge in California has rejected an effort by Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) to overturn a jury verdict that awarded $7.8 million to six former employees who were fired for refusing to comply with the agency’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate on religious grounds.
In a Dec. 30 order, Judge William A. Alsup of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California acknowledged minor “imperfections” in the jury trial—including flawed instructions to the jurors—and determined they were not severe enough to invalidate the jury’s October decision requiring BART to pay each of the six former workers between $1.2 million and $1.5 million.
Alsup denied BART’s post-trial motions to overturn the verdict and seek a new trial, saying that the agency failed to demonstrate that accommodating the employees’ religious objections would have posed an undue hardship. Continue...

Following the seizure of the Eagle S, an oil tanker that departed from the Russian port of Ust-Luga on Christmas Day and is suspected of intentionally dragging its anchor in the Baltic Sea, causing damage to submarine cables—including the Estlink 2 power cable and four telecommunications cables—Finnish authorities have imposed a travel ban on the tanker's crew and plan to inspect the vessel.

2025 is here and barring a cataclysmic event, it will be the final year of Justin Trudeau as the Prime Minister of Canada and the end of the Liberal era.
Will Trudeau resign or will he carry on leading the Liberal ship into the next election? What will happen in the 2025 election? How nasty is it going to get?
On this episode of Ratio’d, Harrison Faulkner previews the year ahead with five predictions.

Quebec Liberal caucus pushing to join growing list of MPs who want Trudeau to resign
https://tnc.news/2025/01/02/quebec-liberal-caucus-want-trudeau-resign/
Quebec’s Liberal MPs want to join their peers in Ontario and Atlantic in calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step down before the next federal election.
Sources within the Liberal party’s Quebec caucus told the media that MPs have been discussing the issue since mid-December when the House of Commons went on holiday break.
Media reports indicate Quebec Liberal caucus chair Stephane Lauzon was tasked with relaying their message to national caucus leadership, according to sources.
However, Lauzon released a statement on Tuesday saying that no conclusion has been made regarding whether the Quebec caucus will officially call for Trudeau’s resignation.
He went on to say that the upcoming official caucus meeting won’t be until next Thursday.
Should they decide to publicly call for the prime minister to step down, they will be the third caucus to do so, following both Ontario and Atlantic Liberal caucuses. Continue...

Matthew Livelsberger was a veteran US special forces operative
The US Army veteran suspected of detonating a Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas was a supporter of the Ukrainian nationalist cause, according to a photo posted on Facebook.
Thirty-seven-year-old Matthew Livelsberger was killed and seven bystanders injured when the Cybertruck he was driving exploded outside the hotel on Wednesday. Tesla CEO Elon Musk attributed the blast to explosive materials transported in the truck’s bed, and the FBI is investigating the incident as a potential act of terrorism due to its proximity to the Trump International Hotel and a similar attack in New Orleans earlier that day.
In a photo purportedly shared by Liveslberger’s wife on Facebook in 2016, the former soldier can be seen wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with a Ukrainian coat of arms and the slogan “Slava Ukraini,” or “Glory to Ukraine.” Continue...

Hungary loses EU funding amid rule-of-law dispute
https://www.rt.com/news/610336-hungary-loss-eu-funding/
Brussels claims the country has failed to tackle corruption and implement reforms, while Budapest says it has met all requirements
The EU has permanently denied Hungary access to over €1 billion ($1.04 billion) in funds as of January 1, 2025, due to an ongoing dispute over alleged rule-of-law violations, Welt reported on Thursday citing a spokeswoman for the European Commission. This marks the first perpetual loss of funding by an EU member state under the bloc’s “conditionality” mechanism, according to the outlet.
Introduced in 2020, the mechanism allows Brussels to suspend funding to member states which it believes violate the bloc’s rule-of-law principles.
The EU has pressured Hungary to change its laws in order to tackle alleged conflicts of interest and corruption for some time, launching “conditionality” proceedings against it back in 2022 and blocking its EU funding.
Brussels has cited alleged infringements of public procurement rules and a lack of control and transparency as reasons for the move. Hungary has since launched reforms and cleared some of the funds, but around €19 billion remain frozen. Continue...

https://www.rt.com/news/610302-ukraine-accountable-stealing-western-aid/
Zelensky’s government should answer for its massive misuse of aid, a piece published by the Washington-based outlet demands
Vladimir Zelensky’s government in Ukraine must answer for the corruption and theft of Western aid, according to an opinion piece published in The Hill on Tuesday. The publication comes on the heels of US President Joe Biden’s latest disbursement of aid to Kiev, totaling $2.5 billion.
The article written by James Durso, a retired Navy officer, blasted both the US and NATO for sparking the Ukraine conflict in the first place and enabling the massive theft.
“The American shame is that the US heedlessly expanded NATO to the borders of Russia, and then, after Russia pushed back, enabled and funded the cynical maladministration by the Zelensky government, which will go down in history as one of the greatest examples of waste and theft of Western aid,” reads the piece.

Zelensky praises Canada’s role in supporting Ukraine as it takes over G7 leadership
https://thepostmillennial.com/zelensky-praises-canadas-role-in-supporting-ukraine-as-it-takes-over-g7-leadership
“Together, we must ensure that Moscow gains no benefit from this war."
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky marked the start of Canada's G7 presidency, praising the country’s longstanding support for Ukraine in its war against Russia.
“Today marks the beginning of Canada’s G7 Presidency. We are all placing great hope in this year – that together, in 2025, through our collective strength, we can achieve a stable and just peace,” Zelensky said in his statement.
Zelensky thanked Canada for its contributions since the full-scale invasion by Russia and noted the collaboration among the G7 nations. “Over the past years of working together, we have proven that the unity of the world’s largest democracies can make life more secure. In the new year, we count on achieving similar results,” the Ukranian president continued.
He also reiterated the importance of ensuring that Russia does not benefit from the ongoing war, saying, “Together, we must ensure that Moscow gains no benefit from this war.”
The G7 presidency rotates annually among member states. In 2024, Italy held the presidency, and now Canada takes over.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has consistently committed to supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russia. Earlier this week, the two leaders spoke, and Trudeau reaffirmed his country’s commitment to “providing military, financial, humanitarian, and other support for Ukraine as it continues to fight against Russia’s unjustifiable war of aggression,” according to a statement from the Prime Minister’s office.
“Prime Minister Trudeau also underscored the continued importance of support for peace and freedom in Ukraine as Canada prepares to assume the G7 Presidency in January 2025, with both leaders expressing the need for continued sanctions against Russia,” the statement added.

Designated terrorist group to host Islamic supremacy conference in Mississauga
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/designated-terrorist-group-to-host-islamic-supremacy-conference-in-mississauga/60848
The theme of the conference is the "defeat" of all non-Muslim world powers.
An extremist group that a number of nations, including the United Kingdom, have labeled a terrorist entity is set to host its annual Khilafah (Caliphate) Conference on January 18 in Mississauga, Ontario.
Hizb ut-Tahrir, which translates to "Party of Liberation," said the theme of the conference is "eliminating the obstacles that are delaying [the] return" of a global Islamic caliphate.
"Is America really so powerful that our Ummah (community) can’t defeat it?" the group wrote in a post on Facebook. "There have been superpower states in the past too, like the Romans and the Persians; yet, they were defeated by the Ummah. Their great cities, like Constantinople, are now Muslim cities."
The post went on to claim that, "the Ummah at those times had the Support of Allah," asking, "what must the Ummah do to get Allah's Support once again? What steps do we need to take to become victorious against today’s Colonialist superpowers?"
"We'll answer these questions at our upcoming Khilafah Conference," it concluded. "Learn what it will take for our Ummah to overcome America, Europe, Russia, China, and others from the position we're in today. If you want to help create real change in our Ummah, then get this critical knowledge by attending, inshaAllah."
The post was accompanied by a video featuring scenes of Muslim conquest. Continue...

OP-ED: Is Guilbeault’s amended net-zero electrical grid edict achievable – and would it help stop climate change?
https://tnc.news/2025/01/02/mason-guilbeault-amended-net-zero/
Federal Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault recently amended his edict that Canada’s electricity generation and distribution system achieve “net-zero” CO2 emissions by 2035, likely because Alberta Premier Danielle Smith finally made Guilbeault’s Liberal government colleagues realize this goal was impossible (as well as politically toxic). The question now is: does Guilbeault shoving the net-zero goalposts out to 2050 make the impossible possible?
Guilbeault claims—and appears to believe—that a net-zero grid is critical to stopping climate change. But just because Guilbeault thinks things does not make them true.
Canada’s electrical grid currently emits an estimated 47 megatonnes (Mt) of CO2 annually. To eliminate these emissions, “all” we need to do is replace the electricity currently generated using fossil fuels with one or more of the other significant available sources—hydro, nuclear, wind or solar.
Last year Canada produced 127 terrawatt-hours (equal to 127 million megawatt-hours) of electricity using fossil fuels, about 20% of Canada’s overall power output. That much electricity could theoretically be replaced by a source with the capacity to produce 14,500 megawatts of electricity continuously, 100% of the time, all year. Continue...

Mark Zuckerberg is going all out to rehabilitate his image with Donald Trump and his supporters.
Semafor was the first to report that Nick Clegg, the company’s president for global affairs, would be departing after several years at the helm.
A former British deputy prime minister, Clegg was one of the most prominent public faces of the company’s aggressive censorship regime against Trump and the MAGA movement in the wake of the January 6th protesters.
Clegg will be replaced by Joel Kaplan, who served as White House Deputy Chief of Staff under George W. Bush.
According to Semafor, Kaplan “has been one of the most forceful voices inside Meta against restrictions on political speech, arguing internally that such policies would disproportionately mute conservative voices.”

The year of our Lord of 2024 witnessed yet another victorious period for El Salvador and its re-elected President Nayib Bukele.
The reduction of the violence continues, and the country that had 6,656 homicides in 2015 now has reduced this alarming rate to 214 homicides in 2023, and now in 2024 to a record low 114 murders.
The continuing security gains is an unmistakable success story in the second full year of a state of emergency.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/macrons-brigade-french-taxpayers-pay-training-ukrainian-unit/
Both the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, and of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, have a strong penchant for PR stunts that often get in the way of the very objectives they set for themselves.
Desperate for some relevance in the war, since both his domestic and foreign agendas were a complete shitshow, Macron decided to bankroll the whole new 155th mechanized brigade, projected to become the ‘elite’.
France allocated almost 1 billion euros for its NATO-grade training and top Western equipment.
But as soon as the brigade found itself at the front, a mass exodus began with more than 1,700 people fleeing before firing a single shot, mostly from the infantry and tank battalions.
Even during the training in France, more than 50 members of the brigade disappeared.

Apple Agrees To Pay $95 Million To Settle Siri Privacy Lawsuit
https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/apple-agrees-pay-95-million-settle-siri-privacy-lawsuit
Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit filed over its Siri voice assistant, according to a newly filed court document.
Lawyers for people who sued Apple after they said Siri recorded their conversations and shared the conversations with advertisers told a federal court in California that Apple does not oppose their proposed settlement, which features a payment of $95 million.
“The Settlement, if approved, will resolve Plaintiffs’ allegations that Siri Device purchasers’ confidential or private communications were obtained by Apple and/or were shared with third parties without their consent as a result of an unintended Siri activation,” the lawyers said in the Dec. 31 filing.
Plaintiffs said in the most recent version of their lawsuit that Apple illegally recorded their confidential conversations despite promising that Siri would only listen to, record, and share conversations with permission.
Plaintiffs said that some of their conversations in their home that should not have been recorded were used by Apple and its partners to target them with advertisements for Olive Garden, Air Jordans, and other products. Continue...

National security is the bedrock upon which a country’s sovereignty and stability rest, yet Canada finds itself alarmingly ill-prepared to address escalating global threats or safeguard its borders. Decades of neglect and underfunding have left the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) in disarray, compromising our national security and diminishing Canada’s global standing. I spent much of my career serving in the CAF, and its current state is simply unacceptable. Canada must urgently reassess its priorities to rebuild a robust military capable of meeting modern challenges. Continue...

Health Canada approves first safe consumption site in Regina
https://www.westernstandard.news/canadian/health-canada-approves-first-safe-consumption-site-in-regina/60872
The Nēwo-Yōtina Friendship Centre has received federal approval to operate as Regina’s first supervised safe consumption site.
Health Canada granted the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act exemption on December 27 after reviewing public health and safety measures.
The centre’s Wâhkôhtowin Harm Reduction branch has been functioning as an overdose prevention site since 2021 under a temporary exemption.
The new approval allows it to provide services for the foreseeable future.
Located on Eleventh Avenue, the indigenous-led site offers adults a safe space to use drugs under paramedic supervision, which is meant to prevent overdoses and other medical emergencies.
Additional supports include drug testing for contaminants like fentanyl, access to social services, referrals to treatment programs, housing and cultural supports, Elder-led guidance, and daily meals for those in need.
According to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health, supervised consumption sites do not require provincial approval to operate.
However, the ministry emphasized that its focus is on addiction treatment and rehabilitation rather than harm reduction sites, which it does not fund.
Regina joins Saskatoon’s Prairie Harm Reduction site as the province’s second federally approved consumption site.
Advocates argue that these facilities are vital in combating the opioid crisis, as fentanyl and related substances continue to be major contributors to overdose deaths in Saskatchewan.
According to the Saskatchewan Coroners Service, 334 confirmed or suspected drug-related deaths were recorded in the province during the first 11 months of 2024—a 24% decrease compared to 2023.
Regina reported the highest number of deaths at 69, followed by Saskatoon with 53.

Parrish was criticized last year for comparing slain Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar to freedom fighter Nelson Mandela.
Mississauga Mayor Carolyn Parrish has responded following revelations that an Islamic extremist group designated a terrorist entity across the world is set to host a conference in her city on January 18.
She vowed to "try to track down" the location of Hizb ut-Tahrir's Khilafah (Caliphate) Conference and let law enforcement know.
"Preaching hate of any kind is a federal criminal offence," Parrish wrote in a post on X after the Western Standard brought the existence of the event to light. "All we as a municipality can do is not rent our facilities to potential hate mongers, try to track down where the conference is being held and inform the police." Continue...

The Faulkner Show | How big unions hold Canada’s economy hostage (Ft. Gwyn Morgan)
https://tnc.news/2025/01/03/faulkner-morgan-big-unions-hostage/
The latest public sector strike that halted Canada’s economy was the Canadian Postal Workers strike in the lead-up to Christmas but this issue has been a persistent issue for many years. Powerful unions in critical industries have been forcing workers to down tools when they’re needed the most.
Most Canadians agree that unions should be able to strike and bargain for better wages and rights, but should that include critical industry workers as well who routinely use strikes to shut down the economy?
Gwyn Morgan, one of Canada’s most senior executives in the natural resources industry, breaks down the problem and provides some solutions to this issue that might work for everyone involved.

Newmarket teen arrested for alleged plans to join ISIS abroad
https://tnc.news/2025/01/03/newmarket-teen-arrested-plans-join-isis/
The RCMP have arrested an 18-year-old man from Newmarket, Ont. after suspecting he had plans to leave Canada and join ISIS.
Police officials say that the suspect was a minor when the RCMP investigation was initially launched, making the publicly available details of the case limited, including the suspect’s identity.
However, court records revealed that the RCMP applied for a terrorism peace bond last month on the basis that he may be planning to leave Canada “to participate in the activities” of the listed terrorist group, ISIS.
The RCMP received consent for proceedings related to terrorism-related offences from the Attorney General on Dec. 19, however, no further information has been made public. Continue...

Trump’s Play for ‘Ownership and Control’ of Greenland Pushes Prime Minister Egede to Declare Independence From Former Colonial Ruler Denmark
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/as-trump-makes-play-ownership-control-greenland-its/
Incoming President Donald J. Trump has several times now manifested his intention of making Greenland part of the United States, stating that control and ownership of the massive North Atlantic Island is vital to the National Security of the country.
And while many times this interest is couched in humor and memes, by now we know that Trump is dead serious about it.
In August 2019, Donald Trump tweeted a meme of a Trump Tower looming over a small village in Greenland, and captioned it with a ‘promise’ not to build such a tower there.
More recently, after his historic landslide victory, on December, he again mentioned the issue, making it from joke to actual US policy under his administration.
Greenland’s Prime Minister Mute Egede was quick to dismiss the idea but, as the days pass by, he has now publicly emphasized his desire to pursue independence from Denmark, its former colonial ruler.
During his New Year speech, Egede made a significant change in the rhetoric surrounding the island’s future.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/freetommyrobinson-trends-as-elon-musk-calls-king-charles/
Elon Musk continues to use his bully pulpit X to put his finger on the festering wounds in Europe as he has now called attention to the mass gang rape scandal affecting upwards of 250,000 women and girls in the UK, and exposing PM Keir Starmer as the head of the Crown Prosecutors Service (Attorney General) during the Rotherham Rape scandal and cover-up.
On Jan. 2, Musk set the ball rolling by calling for the release of Europe’s most prominent political prisoner Tommy Robinson.
Ezra Levant of Rebel Media answered with a detailed post on how to help Tommy, who has been in solitary confinement in Briatin’s maximum security prison HMP Belmarsh since September for a misdemeanor.
Solitary confinement is considered torture by human rights organizations, which remain shamefully silent in the case of a journalist they do not like. Continue...

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/globalist-liberal-tusk-government-poland-disinvites-hungarian-ambassador/
Conservative champion, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is the man the European Union loves to hate.
He has said that the EU is the ‘bad contemporary parody of the Soviet Union’, accused it to try to ‘blackmail’ Hungary, but guaranteed that ‘there is not enough money in the world to force us to accept mass migration and to put our children in the hands of LGBTQ activists’.
Not only that, but he had tough words for the Liberal Polish government of Donald Tusk, saying that Poland’s Government and PM Tusk Were ‘Installed’ by the European Union To Topple the Previous Populist Leadership – And Now Budapest Is the New Target.
So, it’s not very surprising that Poland has decided not to invite Hungary’s ambassador to an event on Friday launching Warsaw’s term in the rotating EU presidency.
This comes after Budapest gave asylum to a former conservative Polish minister who is under investigation over alleged misuse of public funds.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/honduras-president-threatens-shut-down-u-s-military/
Honduran President Xiomara Castro has threatened to terminate military cooperation with the United States if President-elect Donald Trump proceeds with his plan for mass deportations of illegal immigrants, including those from Honduras.
This ultimatum underscores the glaring hypocrisy of a leader who has failed to address the root causes driving her own citizens to flee her country in the first place.
A primary objective of Trump’s mass deportation plan is to remove individuals with criminal records who are residing in the country illegally.
By focusing on these individuals, Trump’s administration aims to reduce crime rates and enhance public safety.
Tom Homan, designated as Trump’s “border czar,” has emphasized that the deportation efforts will prioritize those posing threats to public safety and national security.
However, Castro is far from pleased with this development. Continue...

Trump’s Secret Weapon for Mass Deportations: E-Verify
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/trumps-secret-weapon-mass-deportations-e-verify/
Mark January 20, 2025, as the start of the biggest man-hunt in American history. That’s when the newly minted Trump administration 2.0 will begin hunting down and deporting millions of criminal aliens welcomed in by the Biden-Harris administration. If successful, they’ll purge our cities of murderers, child traffickers, and drug pushers, a result that will prove wildly popular with a country tired of mass illegal immigration.
But that’s only step one.
Restoring America’s honor and independence requires freeing her from millions more nonviolent illegal migrants who’ve lived for years within our borders in violation of the law. Finding them will prove tricky. Trump’s commitment to mass deportations may be ironclad, but pulling it off will require using a powerful weapon his predecessors ignored: E-Verify.
E-Verify is a federal service created 28 years ago that employers can use to confirm employees’ eligibility to work in the United States through the Department of Homeland Security. It stems from the 1986 Reagan amnesty law, which banned employers from knowingly hiring illegal aliens and later gave them a tool to enforce it. While hardly a silver bullet, it’s free, fast, and effective.
“If you aren’t for E-Verify, you aren’t serious about controlling immigration,” says border expert Mark Krikorian, who heads the Center for Immigration Studies. The system works through deterrence. A sign on the door indicating a fast-food restaurant uses E-Verify is “a signal to illegal job-seekers that they should apply elsewhere,” he explains. Continue...

Former German FinMin Admits Corruption In Ukraine Is "Rampant", And Large Majority Of Ukrainians Agree
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/former-german-finmin-admits-corruption-ukraine-rampant-and-large-majority-ukrainians
“Ukraine is now ruled by an oligarch who increasingly relies on foreign aid. A state where corruption is rampant and there are no real democratic structures,” former German Finance Minister Oskar Lafontaine told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, cited by news agency V4NA.
The former minister emphasized that independent parties and mass media are banned in Ukraine and establishing democracy and independence would take a long time.
Reports of corruption are common in Ukraine, especially in the military, according to Magyar Nemzet. A recent anti-corruption investigation identified 30 Ukrainian officials suspected of embezzling funds, including employees of housing and maintenance departments, as well as representatives of commercial structures across Ukraine. Prosecutors say 15 of them were members of organized crime groups.
And as Zelensky goes begging for more money from President Joe Biden for the war, Ukraine’s Prosecutor General’s Office announced last week that it has uncovered a large-scale scheme to embezzle more than $3.7 million from the state budget — funds that had been meant for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to finance everything from heating and electricity to military infrastructure construction work.

Just Like Clockwork, The Propaganda Push For Digital ID Kicks Into Gear In The UK
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/just-clockwork-propaganda-push-digital-id-kicks-gear-uk
After avoiding the issue for years, the legacy media are now trying to manufacture public complacency and consent for the government’s digital identity - and by extension, CBDC - agenda.
On July 5, the day Keir Starmer became UK prime minister, we wagered that a Starmer government would intensify the push to roll out a digital identity system in the UK — a country that has, until now, resisted all recent attempts to introduce an identity card system, including, most notably, by Starmer’s backroom consultant and mentor, Tony Blair.
Unfortunately, that prediction has proven to be pretty much on the money. Since taking office, the Starmer government has: Continue...

OP-ED: Unfit for Duty, Part II – What the Canadian Armed Forces Needs to Rebuild
https://tnc.news/2025/01/04/unfit-for-duty-part-2-caf-rebuild/
For a time in the 2010s, it looked like Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government was committed to investing in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). In 2017, as part of a major foreign policy statement, Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan, announced a new defence policy: “Strong, Secure, Engaged”. Canada was to be strong at home, secure in North America and engaged in the world.
The government promised to increase spending on defence from a paltry 1 percent of GDP to 1.4 per cent by 2024, to buy advanced fighter jets and build surface frigates, and to grow the regular forces to 71,500 troops. While most of this sounded good, none of this lofty rhetoric was achieved. Current Defence Minister Bill Blair has admitted the CAF is short some 16,500 troops, and the Parliamentary Budget Office puts spending at just 1.29 percent of GDP, far below out NATO commitment of two percent. Some defence analysts consider it unlikely the Trudeau government ever intended to take serious action.
The CAF, as it stands today, is a depleted, demoralized and nearly shattered force. The neglect and deterioration, which I explored in Part I of this series, is unforgivable. But it’s not irreversible. How should Canada begin to rebuild the CAF?
A military is defined, in simplest terms, by five factors: Continue...

Ottawa bans vehicle idling longer than one minute per hour, 365 days a year
https://tnc.news/2025/01/04/ottawa-bans-vehicle-idling/
Even if Ottawa surpasses its coldest temperature ever recorded of -39°C, residents will be prohibited from idling their unoccupied vehicles for more than one minute an hour going forward, barring some exceptions.
The City of Ottawa previously announced that their bylaw changes would come into effect in the new year and can be enforced no matter the season.
The changes come despite the city’s own research showing that residents disagree with the change. The previous research was conducted in May 2024.
The survey highlighted that 164 respondents opposed the new idling bylaw, while 145 said further education and enforcement were required. Only 86 respondents were in favour of a bylaw.
However, a City of Ottawa spokesperson told True North that the response numbers are a summary of the general themes and not the totality of public input received.
“Staff’s recommendations aligned with best practice from other municipalities, with Natural Resources Canada’s model idling by-law (3 A Model Idling Control By-law), and with the City of Ottawa’s Climate Change Master Plan goal of reducing emissions in the transportation sector,” Jerrod Riley, program manager of public policy development told True North.

Chinese Conservative Leader Voiced Concern as O’Toole Pulled Ahead of Trudeau in Polls, Internal Emails Reveal
https://www.thebureau.news/p/chinese-conservative-leader-voiced?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
"There’s at least a dozen people I talk to who feel the same way,” National Council member wrote as Conservative Party edged ahead in August 2021
A Hogue Commission document shows an attack advertisement targeting Conservative leader Erin O’Toole in the 2021 federal election, on a digital screen at a Chinese grocery store in the Scarborough-Agincourt riding of Toronto.
OTTAWA, Canada — Explosive internal Conservative Party emails obtained by The Bureau reveal that on August 26, 2021, a senior party official expressed concern over then-leader Erin O'Toole’s breakthrough in the polls—the first time the Conservatives inched ahead of Justin Trudeau’s Liberals. This same Ontario-based Chinese Canadian official would later spearhead a petition against O’Toole following the party’s election defeat, while a group of Conservatives simultaneously accused him of alienating Chinese diaspora voters, ultimately contributing to his removal as leader.
Just days before, on August 23, 2021, pollster Nik Nanos described the election as a “dead heat” in his analysis. “You've got to be disappointed if you happen to be a supporter of the Liberals,” Nanos said. “Now the race is on.” By August 26, O’Toole had pulled ahead—a development that prompted suspicious criticism among a subset of Conservative Party officials.
According to The Bureau’s review of emails between Conservative national councillors, a message dated August 26, 2021, shows the Chinese Canadian official voicing concern over reactions to O’Toole’s climb in the polls. The chain began with an internal email titled “Nanos Polling Results Last Night.” One Conservative member wrote, “Erin O’Toole is resonating with the voters for sure, many have made positive comments… I wasn’t getting that in 2019!”
“Last night was the first night that his survey showed us in the lead,” one Conservative national councillor added.
Another party member then forwarded the “Nanos Polling Results Last Night” email chain to the Chinese Canadian official, adding, “This is not making me happy.”
The senior Conservative official replied, “[Another national councillor] and I share your feeling. And there’s at least a dozen people I talk to that feel the same way.” Continue...

A group of high school students from Centreville High School in Virginia, in collaboration with the FDA, has uncovered alarming DNA contamination in both Pfizer’s experimental and commercial mRNA COVID-19 shots.
Their peer-reviewed study, published in the Journal of High School Science on December 29th, has sparked renewed debate over vaccine manufacturing standards and quality control processes.
The researchers, led by Tyler Wang, Alex Kim, and Kevin Kim, developed a novel method to detect replication-competent DNA impurities at FDA’s own research facility at the White Oak Campus, Children’s Health Defense reported.
Their technique involves extracting DNA from vaccine samples, ligating it into a circular form, and then transforming it into Escherichia coli cells.
If transformation results in antibiotic-resistant bacterial colonies, it indicates the presence of replication-competent DNA, which should ideally be absent or minimal in the final vaccine product.
The findings were based on analyses of two separate lots of Pfizer’s mRNA vaccines, including monovalent and bivalent formulations.
The students uncovered significant levels of DNA contamination in the vaccines, with some samples exceeding the WHO threshold by up to 470 times, the amount of residual DNA detected ranged between 40 to 110 nanograms per dose.
While no replication-competent DNA was detected in commercial Pfizer vaccine batches, smaller DNA fragments—approximately 35 base pairs in length—were consistently present.
Interestingly, the study reported sporadic instances of replication-competent DNA in an in-house mRNA vaccine and a biosimilar vaccine.

Italian PM Meloni Makes the ‘Pilgrimage’ to Mar-A-Lago — The ‘Most Powerful Person in Europe’ Has Dinner With Trump and Future Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Palm Beach
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/italian-pm-meloni-makes-pilgrimage-mar-lago-most/
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, chosen by POLITICO the ‘most powerful person in Europe’, was yet another head of state to make the pilgrimage to Palm Beach, Florida, to have dinner with incoming US President Donald J. Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
Besides the US and Italy being important allies, and Trump and Meloni having a somewhat similar approach to policy in a wide range of subjects, there is also an interesting question of timing.
Meloni’s visit, after all, comes just days before she is to receive outgoing President from hell Joe Biden, who will travel to Rome and the Vatican on Jan. 9, in his final trip overseas. Continue...

OF COURSE: Climate Change Warrior Kathy Hochul Has Spent More Than $400K on Private Jets

New York Governor Kathy Hochul cares very deeply about climate change. She recently signed a bill that aims to fine fossil fuel companies $75 billion for supposed damage to the climate.
In her personal life however, she follows a different set of rules, naturally.
Hochul has spent a small fortune on private jets. Doesn’t that kind of violate the whole ‘save the world from climate change’ thing?

Here We Go: Scientists Behind AstraZeneca COVID Jab Rush to Develop Bubonic Plague Vaccine as Fears of the Next Pandemic Loom
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/here-we-go-scientists-behind-astrazeneca-covid-jab/
In a world still grappling with the fallout from hastily developed COVID-19 vaccines, the same scientific elite is now setting its sights on a new potential crisis: the bubonic plague.
Yes, the same Oxford scientists behind the controversial AstraZeneca COVID jab are now advancing efforts to create a vaccine for a disease that last caused mass devastation during the Middle Ages.
The Bubonic Plague, often referred to as the Black Death, is a serious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis. It is one of the three forms of plague (bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic) and is the most common. The disease primarily affects humans and other mammals and is transmitted through the bite of an infected flea or through direct contact with infected animals.
This historic disease, which wiped out half of Europe’s population in the 1300s, has long been confined to the pages of history books.
Yet, claims of “superbug” strains emerging in distant corners of the world have reignited calls for mass inoculation efforts.
Predictably, climate change and the specter of bioterrorism are once again being trotted out as the justification for this latest round of vaccine development.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has described Elon Musk as a “troll” and said he has no intention of having warm relations with the powerful tech mogul.
In an interview with Germany’s Stern magazine published Saturday, Scholz said he would refuse to “feed the troll” and respond to Musk’s attacks on him and his government.
“There are a lot of people on social media who want to attract attention with snappy slogans,” Scholz said.
“I don’t believe in courting Mr. Musk’s favor,” he continued. “I’m happy to leave that to others.”
“As Social Democrats, we have been used to the fact that there are rich media entrepreneurs who do not appreciate Social Democratic politics — and do not hide their opinions.”
Musk, whose ownership of the X platform and role heading up the Department of Government Efficiency has made him one of the most powerful surrogates of the Trump presidency, has been a vocal critic of the German government. Continue...

The Russian Federation forces started the new year the same way they finished the old: advancing relentlessly in the region of Donetsk, the cradle of the war in the Ukraine.
After taking control of Kurakhovo on New Year’s Eve, they are now actively advancing in the direction of Pokrovsk.
Ukrainian sources confirm that Russia has captured Vozdvizhenka in the Pokrovsk, a mere 4 kilometers away from the Pokrovsk-Konstantinovka highway used for logistics and supplies.
The fighting never stops, not even for New Year’s Eve.
As it has become the rule, the Russians are encircling and isolating the city before attacking it.
The effort now is to bypass it from the south and cut off supply routes.

Ottawa outlaws remote car starters – to save the climate

With the New Year kicking in, the City of Ottawa reminded the plebs that new idling times for all automobiles on private or public land were now in effect:
ICYMI – #OttCity has new idling times for vehicles on public and private property to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.
Learn more about these updates to the Idling Control By-law: https://t.co/L1FRgs2twx pic.twitter.com/oLu02UuSl2
— City of Ottawa (@ottawacity) January 2, 2025
Ottawa is the Canadian capital, where average temperatures range from -9C (15F) in December, -14C (6F) in January and Febuary, to -7C (19F) in March. The new time limits on pre-heating your car will allow one minute of idle time per hour for unoccupied vehicles.
That means using the remote starter to melt off the ice and warm the car up before piling into it for the morning commute is now verboten. It’ll also mean you’ll have to get out there in the -14C weather with your ice-scraper because there’s no way a minute of idle time is enough to defrost or de-ice your windshield.
Why?

Quebec emergency rooms have been severely overcrowded following the holidays with several major Montreal hospitals operating at a capacity rate of over 200%.
According to data tabulated by the Index Santé, the Montreal General Hospital was at 213% ER capacity on Friday afternoon, while the Jewish General Hospital was reportedly operating at 209% capacity.
Additionally, the Royal Victoria Hospital, which is connected to the McGill University Health Centre reported a 203% capacity.
Quebec government data also reported the average ER wait time across the province to be five hours, while the average time for patients on a stretcher has surpassed 16 hours.
The stretcher occupancy rate as of Friday was at 125%, with 829 patients having waited over 24 hours for service and another 296 patients waiting over 48 hours.
News of the overcrowded emergency rooms comes on the heels of a young Canadian writer and activist who died after waiting over six hours in an emergency room for further screening. Continue...

Ning’s response comes after Ottawa issued sanctions “under the Special Economic Measures (People’s Republic of China) Regulations against 8 former or current senior officials involved in grave human rights violations in the country.”
The release by Global Affairs Canada cited China’s treatment of religious and ethnic minorities in Xinjiang, Tibet and its targeting of Falun Gong practitioners, as well as its efforts to disrupt Hong Kong’s democracy. Continue...

OP-ED: Unfit for Duty, Part III – The Roadmap to Rebuilding the Canadian Armed Forces
https://tnc.news/2025/01/05/op-ed-unfit-for-duty-part-iii-rebuilding-caf/
The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) stand at a precipice. After nine years of broken promises on new equipment and funding, attacks on leadership failures, misuse as a gender and DEI testbed, embarrassment at the inability to provide combat-capable personnel and equipment, and occasional exploitation as props for political shows, the CAF has reached record lows for recruitment, retention and capability. As someone who spent 27 years serving in our armed forces, the decline is impossible to accept. The organization is a broken, demoralized shell.
This Canada is beset by national security challenges, arguably crises: shockingly deep and broad foreign interference in our institutions, worsening illegal protests in our streets, growing concern among our allies and trading partners, the open contempt of our adversaries. In part I and part II of this series, I traced the decline of the CAF and the requirements of a rebuild .
If the CAF is the canary in the coal mine that signals the state of Canada’s national security, then the canary is on its back, fluttering. The political and military leadership that allowed, indeed designed and executed, the decades-long deterioration and borderline destruction of the CAF must ultimately be held accountable. The rebuild must start now, however – without them – using people who have a clear vision of the threats to our nation and national defence requirements to overcome them.
I am calling for the formation of a special task force with the mandate to create a roadmap for and initiate this rebuild. Continue...

University of Alberta ditches DEI policies in favour of intellectual freedom
https://tnc.news/2025/01/05/university-of-alberta-ditches-dei-policies/
University of Alberta President Bill Flanagan announced that the post-secondary institution intends to shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion policies effective immediately.
In an op-ed penned for the Edmonton Journal by Flanagan, he began by quoting the university’s first president Henry Marshall Tory. Upon founding the post-secondary school, Tory stated that the school’s mandate was “to create an intellectual and spiritual atmosphere in which prejudice and hatred could not live, a just institution whose work would be to assist in the unification of the diverse elements which enter our national life.”
According to Flanagan, the move away from DEI practices represents the school’s commitment to re-aligning with the foundational values of a public university, which include curiosity, rigorous inquiry, and the search for truth.
While he noted that “fostering dialogue and navigating differences can be uncomfortable,” such moments of discomfort are how transformative learning and understanding happen.
The decision marks the first university in Canada to officially move away from DEI practices, instead returning to a merit-based system.
Flanagan said that over the years DEI policies have “become polarizing, focusing more on what divides us rather than our shared humanity.” Continue...

Saskatchewan appeal court slashes convicted man’s sentence in half because he’s Metis
https://tnc.news/2025/01/05/sask-court-convicted-sentence-metis/
The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal has dramatically reduced the prison sentence of a 35-year-old man who identifies as Métis – from five years to 30 months – after finding that the original sentencing did not take into account his lived experience as an Indigenous person.
Colin Umpherville was arrested at 29 years old in October 2019. Police entered a hotel room where Umpherville was present and discovered a .22 calibre handgun, 50 rounds of ammunition, a small quantity of methamphetamine, and a weigh scale in a backpack.
At the time of his arrest, Umpherville did not possess a firearms license and was assessed as having a high risk of reoffending.
“Mr. Umpherville’s crimes are serious and called for a term of imprisonment. However, I agree with Mr. Umpherville that the judge erred in his application of the principles set out in R v Gladue … and the cases interpreting and affirming that decision,” wrote Chief Justice Robert W. Leurer.
The Gladue principles, established by a Supreme Court ruling 25 years ago, mandate that courts consider the systemic and background factors affecting Indigenous offenders, including the legacy of colonialism and residential schools.
The appeal judges determined that the trial judge failed to adequately weigh these factors in assessing Umpherville’s moral culpability. Continue...

https://www.rt.com/news/610470-canadian-scholar-ukrainian-kill-list/
Ivan Katchanovski says he has been added to the notorious Mirotvorets list for “launching a campaign against” WWII Nazi veteran
Canadian political scientist Ivan Katchanovski has been added to the notorious Ukrainian state-linked Mirotvorets ‘kill list,’ for his alleged involvement in Russian information operations, for “manipulation of socially significant information,” and for spreading anti-Ukrainian as well as Russian “propaganda myths.”
The scholar, who is a part-time professor at the University of Ottawa, described his inclusion on the list as “Orwellian” and linked the move to his study of the Ukrainian far-right.
According to Katchanovski, his post with US-based tech mogul Elon Musk “about Nazi SS Galicia veteran,” his tweet about a “neo-Nazi Azov leader, who gave Nazi salute in front of Nazi flag,” and his “academic study of far-right involvement” in Maidan “are posted by Myrotvorets as evidence of a ‘deliberate act against the national security of Ukraine, the peace, the security of humanity and the international legal order, as well as other offenses’.”
In a post on X on Sunday, Katchanovski wrote that he is “on Myrotvorets hit list for ‘launching [a] campaign against’ an SS Galicia Division veteran hailed as a hero in Canada parliament” – an apparent reference to Yaroslav Hunka. The 99-year-old came into the spotlight in 2023 when he appeared in the Canadian parliament as a guest during a visit by Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, and received a standing ovation.

The Dominican Republic has intensified measures against illegal immigration, particularly targeting Haitian nationals.
In 2024, authorities deported over 276,000 Haitians according to the General Directorate of Immigration.
This policy has been reinforced with the announcement of a plan to send back up to 10,000 illegal immigrants per week, aiming to reduce the immigrant population in Dominican communities.
The Dominican people are calling on the government to take these measures, deeming them necessary to maintain the country’s security and order, arguing that Haiti’s crisis has fueled illegal immigration and poses a national security threat.
The international community has also expressed concern about the situation in Haiti, where gang violence and political instability have led to a surge in migration. Continue...

Jackson Local School District settled with the teacher, Vivian Geraghty, Dec. 18 for $450,000 in damages and attorney fees following a lawsuit in which she argued that her First Amendment rights were violated, according to the Alliance Defending Freedom, which represented her. Continue...

Now that right-wingers are gaining ground all over Europe, the liberal-Globalist forces have resorted to ‘firewall’ tactics where all parties refuse to negotiate with the surging right for the formation of governments.
These firewall tactics have been used in France, the Netherlands, Germany, and Austria.
It arose today that Vienna is headed towards coalition talks led by the ‘far-right’ Freedom Party (FPO) after efforts to form a centrist government ‘firewalling’ the FPO fell apart and prompted Chancellor Karl Nehammer to resign.

Trudeau Out: Canadian Prime Minister Quits
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trudeau-out-canadian-prime-minister-likely-resign-week
As expected, Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is resigning after more than nine years leading Canada, amid a collapse in approval ratings and a rebellion within his political party.
Trudeau, 53, currently the longest-serving leader of any G-7 country, announced Monday he plans to step down as head of the governing Liberal Party. He will remain as prime minister until a new leader is selected, and parliament has been suspended until March 24 while that process is underway.
The winner of the Liberal leadership contest is set to become Canada’s 24th prime minister and will have to quickly prepare for an election, which the Conservative Party is the clear favorite to win, according to public opinion polls. Continue...

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/porsche-applies-large-markdown-taycan-ev-demand-runs-out-juice
Germany's largest automaker has recorded sliding profitability, with its China unit under pressure as demand for luxury automobiles wanes. Specifically, demand for its Porsche Taycan has run out of juice, leading to significant markdowns.
Bloomberg Intelligence's Joel Levington published a note on Monday highlighting the bleak demand story for the Porsche Taycan, which has forced the struggling German automaker to offer markdowns of $22,500. Additionally, the vehicle's used value plummeted in 2024, while data from iSeeCars research finds the Taycan the most expensive alternative fuel vehicle to drive on miles used per year.

Following the meeting, Bloomberg reported that a deal between the Italian government and Elon Musk's SpaceX for Starlink satellite internet service could soon be finalized to provide secure telecommunications.
Starlink and the Italian government have been in discussions since mid-2023. According to the report, talks are ongoing and centered around a five-year contract valued at $1.6 billion. This contract would provide a broad range of top-level encryption for the government's telephone and internet services.

Italy confirmed on Monday that discussions continue, stating that no deal has been reached. Officials added, "The talks with SpaceX are part of normal government business." Continue...

In comments to LifeSiteNews, Campaign Life Coalition leaders praised the news that Justin Trudeau will be stepping down as prime minister and head of the Liberal Party, thanking 'God' that the nation’s most 'pro-abortion' leader will soon be gone.
Canada’s top pro-life and pro-family organization, Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), praised the news that Justin Trudeau will be stepping down as prime minister and head of the Liberal Party, thanking “God” that the nation’s most “pro-abortion” leader will soon be gone.
“CLC thanks God for the news that Justin Trudeau, Canada’s most pro-abortion Prime Minister, is stepping down as Liberal leader,” the group wrote in a press release sent to LifeSiteNews.
CLC’s National President Jeff Gunnarson also thanked God that Trudeau will be stepping down.
“Trudeau has done more than any other Prime Minister in our country’s history to move our country away from its Christian foundation toward an anti-life and anti-family dystopia that undermined the rights of Canadians,” he said in comments sent to LifeSiteNews.

https://www.breitbart.com/2024-election/2025/01/06/canadian-governor-justin-trudeau-mocked-after-announcing-plans-resign/
Americans heckled Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday after he announced plans to resign his post.
Trudeau, a far-leftist who often tangled with President-elect Donald Trump, said he would resign due to internal conflicts, drawing a rash of jeers from a choir of conservative Americans.
The thrashing comes after Trump recently met with Trudeau and thereafter cast him as the governor of the 51st state. Trump’s repeated labeling of Trudeau as “governor” enthralled his supporters eager to mock the far-left prime minister.
Abigail Jackson, deputy chief of staff and communications director for Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), said Trudeau’s resignation as prime minister “makes sense because you can’t be Prime Minister when you’re Governor.” Continue...

NOTEBOOK: Justin Trudeau resigns but won't call an election
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/breaking-justin-trudeau-resigns/60513
Justin Trudeau on Monday morning at Rideau Cottage, with tears welling up in his eyes, announced his intention to step down as prime minister and as Liberal Party leader.
"I can no longer be prime minister due to internal battles," said Trudeau at a press conference.
"I cannot be the one to carry the Liberals into the next election."
The prime minister's resignation means a Liberal leadership race ahead of the next scheduled general election in October.
He will remain in his position until a new leader is selected.
Parliament will prorogue until March 24, with Trudeau still at the helm — meaning he will be head of state on January 20, the inauguration day of President-elect Donald Trump.
The government will run out of money on March 31, the end of the financial year. MPs must return to parliament before then to pass an appropriations bill. Continue...

The long and dark chapter of Justin Trudeau’s tenure as Prime Minister of Canada is officially coming to an end. But not before the Liberal Party chooses a successor to take over the role of Prime Minister and Liberal leader. The nine years of Trudeau have been marked by excitement, scandal, intrigue and deep sadness for millions of Canadians. Like his party, Trudeau is leaving behind a country bitterly divided.
But now there is hope on the horizon for better days ahead. Will Pierre Poilievre rise to the monumental occasion and bring the country back to glory?

Leftist Canadian Politician Fires Back at Trump — Proposes Annexing California, Washington, and Oregon into Canada
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/canadian-politician-fires-back-trump-proposes-annexing-california/
Canada’s Green Party leader, Elizabeth May, took aim at President-elect Donald Trump, offering a wild “proposal” to annex California, Oregon, and Washington into Canada.
Her comments, dripping with arrogance, reveal an out-of-touch politician grasping for relevance while ignoring the stark realities of her own country’s struggles.
Trump posted on Truth Social last month expressing frustration with the United States “subsidizing Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year,” while pointing out that many Canadians might actually welcome the idea of statehood.
He argued it would save Canadians money on taxes and military expenses, framing the prospect as beneficial for both nations.
“No one can answer why we subsidize Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year? Makes no sense! Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State. They would save massively on taxes and military protection. I think it is a great idea. 51st State!!!” Trump wrote.
During a press conference Friday, May dismissed Trump’s proposal that Canada become the 51st state, responding with a snide jab.
“We do not aspire to be the 51st state … If it was a joke, it was never funny, and it ends now.” May said. Continue...

Please consider the few musings below:
We are in the middle of a raging information war, and in the fog of battle, there will be cases of friendly fire.
Also, the world is complex, and sometimes we will disagree with allies and – shockingly – even agree with adversaries.
Grown men can overcome rifts – even bad ones – in favor of common goals.
If you don’t believe that, just remember that a couple of years back, Donald J. Trump called Elon Musk a ‘bullshit artist’ while, during the campaign, in one of their first meetings, Musk was dismissive of Trump, saying he was someone ‘who likes to talk a lot’.
And yet – here’s a collaboration for the ages, Trump-Musk moving the needle with a power few ever thought possible.
If you need another example, just remember how kickass VP J.D. Vance once shaded President Trump – the examples abound.
All this is preamble to celebrate that Brexit hero Nigel Farage has extended the peace pipe, and openly stated that he means to ‘mend any broken fences’ with Elon Musk when he flies out to the United States for the presidential inauguration on January 20th.
That’s grown-up behavior, and I celebrate that, regardless of whether this will work out or not. Continue...

Most Canadians celebrated the news that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau decided finally to resign – as did conservatives in America and all over the world.
But as we examine exactly how he has manifested his resignation, we see that even on his way out, the poster boy of Globalism is still resorting to his dirty tricks.
He says he will resign ‘when the Liberal party chooses a new leader’, in a ‘robust process’ that, he said, will take weeks solely to define the rules – let alone actually implement the vote.
In the meantime, Parliament will be prorogued so that he is not immediately thrown out by a no-confidence vote.
Of course, opposition is livid. The Conservative Party leader accused Justin Trudeau’s party of ‘clinging to power’. Continue...

Researchers from the University of Toronto have documented a rare instance of gigantomastia—abnormal and excessive breast growth—following the administration of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.
A 19-year-old woman, previously healthy with no notable medical history, experienced rapid breast enlargement just one week after receiving her first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine in September 2022.
Her condition worsened following the second dose, with her breast size increasing dramatically from a B cup to a triple G over six months.

The changes include nuking the controversial fact-checking censorship program and adopting a system similar to Elon Musk's Community Notes on X, signaling a pivot toward free speech as Trump 2.0 will usher in an era of revitalization of Western values.
"We're going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms," Zuckerberg said in a video posted on Facebook early Tuesday morning.
He said, "More specifically, we're going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with Community Notes similar to X, starting in the US."

Q Research General #23836: VERY BUSY BREADS EDITION
THE fact CHECK FILES: Inside the secretive and lucrative fact checking industry behind a foreign-funded bid to censor Voice debate
Two of Australia's most powerful universities and a multi-billion dollar tech giant are fronting campaigns to silence news coverage of the Voice to influence the referendum, writes Jack Houghton.
Two of Australia's most powerful universities and a multi-billion dollar tech giant are fronting campaigns to silence news coverage of the Voice to influence the referendum.
A Sky News Australia investigation has uncovered a disturbing foreign-financed attempt to block political debate and news coverage around the Voice, which exposes the global fact checking system used by tech giant Meta as non-compliant with its own rules of impartiality and transparency.
In one case, the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology has been allowed by Facebook parent company Meta to block and deplatform Australian journalism, despite the platform knowing it was a breach of the rules Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg established to distance himself from fact checking responsibilities.
Meta maintains its fact-checking operation is at arm's length and independent, but Sky News can reveal the tech giant signed a secret commercial contract directly with RMIT which allows the fact checking unit to be paid up to $740,000 a year from an Irish Meta subsidiary.
Zuckerberg has given promises globally that Meta does not seek to be the arbiter of truth on the internet and has insisted his platform is policed by an opaque entity known as the International fact Checking Network.
However, while RMIT was certified by the IFCN at the time the contract was signed, Sky News can reveal the certification expired in December, leaving the operation free to censor Australian journalism with no oversight at all.
It is just one of 55 fact checking operations around the world which remain signatories of the IFCN despite having expired credentials.
The commercial contract between the Melbourne university and Meta has strict clauses which allow Meta to tear up the agreement if RMIT ever loses certification, but the tech giant has not done so despite being aware that the prominent fact checker is deplatforming journalism while expired.
The university used the powers Facebook has given it to throttle Sky News Australia's Facebook page with false fact checks multiple times this year, breaching the Meta-endorsed IFCN Code of Principles and preventing millions of Australians from reading or watching Sky News Australia's journalism.
fact checkers employed by RMIT have led to numerous code breaches, including one fact checker using her social media account to label Opposition Leader Peter Dutton a fear-mongering racist for his views on the Voice.

Q Research General #18543: Show Me the Rally Edition
Facebook "fact-checkers" censor peer-reviewed scientific article proving the sun, not CO2, is responsible for climate change
A peer-reviewed scientific article written by climate scientists Willie Soon and Ronan Connolly is being censored by Facebook's "fact-checkers" after it concluded that the sun, not carbon dioxide, is what causes climate change.
"We found that, depending on which scientific datasets you choose, you could explain the global warming since the 19th century as being anything from mostly natural to mostly human-caused," they wrote. "The huge uncertainty over such a key question is a major concern."
Several days after Soon and Connolly's paper was published and posted online, the United Nations's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its Sixth Assessment Report. This report claims that there is "unequivocal" evidence that climate change is almost entirely caused by human activity.
"The journalist Alex Newman was struck by the contrast between the two different reports," wrote Soon and Connolly. "He interviewed us, representatives for the IPCC, and several other scientists for an article in The Epoch Times."
Soon and Connolly described how Newman's article spread like wildfire on social media, including Facebook.
But one of Facebook's so-called independent fact-checkers, a group known as Climate Feedback, soon stepped in to prevent the article from being seen by a wider audience.
"This 'fact-checker' website, financially supported by Facebook, TikTok, Google News Initiative and others, declared the article to be 'incorrect' and 'misleading.' Facebook then began censorsing any posts sharing the link," wrote Soon and Connolly.
Soon and Connolly fought back by using Climate Feedback's own framework for determining what is and is not misinformation. They found out that Climate Feedback's "fact-check" was guilty of 11 of the 14 classes of misinformation that the group warns against. Meanwhile, Newman's article was guilty of none of them.
"'fact-checkers' claim to provide a solution. But a weaponized 'fact-check- is nothing more than a 'narrative-check,'" wrote Soon and Connolly.

Germany: Islamic Influencer Arrested After Shooting Firework Into Child's Bedroom on New Year's Eve
https://rairfoundation.com/germany-islamic-influencer-arrested-after-shooting-firework-childs/
Atallah Younes, a 23-year-old Palestinian influencer with over 300,000 Instagram followers, has been arrested at Berlin’s Willy Brandt Airport while attempting to flee the city. Younes, from Nablus in the West Bank, faces backlash after a video of him firing a firework into a child’s bedroom window went viral in Germany.
The shocking incident occurred on New Year’s Eve in Berlin-Neukölln, where Younes lit the firework in a residential area and aimed it at an apartment building. The rocket flew into a third-floor window, which belonged to a child’s bedroom, and exploded in a fiery blast that set the room ablaze. Fortunately, no one was in the room at the time.
The video, which garnered over 10 million views before Younes deleted it, sparked widespread outrage. In response, Younes posted a follow-up video apologizing to the homeowner, claiming he didn’t know the rocket’s trajectory and insisting the incident was unintentional.
In a predictable move, Younes played the victim card, alleging “racist” attacks in response to the backlash. However, his arrest has been widely welcomed as authorities continue to investigate the incident.

Pfizergate: What is EC Chief Von Der Leyen Accused of?
https://sputnikglobe.com/20250106/pfizergate-what-is-ec-chief-von-der-leyen-accused-of-1121367442.html
The New York Times described the European Commission President’s COVID vaccine deal with the Pfizer CEO as "a striking alignment of political survival and corporate hustle."
A court in Liege, Belgium, is due to consider whether European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has legal immunity against corruption charges related to her murky involvement in the purchase of coronavirus vaccines. What is the scandal all about? Sputnik explores.
In 2022, US media reported that von der Leyen had communicated with Albert Bourla, chief executive of the US pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, about clinching a long-term contract to purchase 1.8 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines worth €35 billion ($37.6 billion), even before they passed clinical trials.
Negotiations on the deal were conducted informally in late 2020 via SMS messages and without prior consent of EU member states.
The European Commission President also texted her husband, Heiko von der Leyen, who serves as the medical director at Orgenesis, a company that collaborates with Pfizer. All the messages were then accidentally deleted, Ursula von der Leyen claimed.
As a result, she has been accused of “usurpation of functions and title,” destruction of public documents, and high-level corruption charges that were initiated by Belgian lobbyist Frederic Baldan.
The first hearing on his complaint was held on 17 May 2024, when the Liege court confirmed that the so-called Pfizegate case is in line with its jurisdiction and should not be handed to the European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO), created on the initiative of von der Leyen herself, due to an obvious conflict of interests.
The second hearing slated for December 5 was actually disrupted due to a demarche by the EPPO, which sent a counter-request to the court for von der Leyen's immunity. The EPPO argues that von der Leyen has immunity from prosecution for corruption.
European Commission spokesperson Stefan de Keersmaecker said on January 5 that von der Leyen had canceled all "external engagements" in the coming days after contracting "severe pneumonia."

An Islamic extremist conference organized by a group banned as a terrorist entity in several countries outside of Canada has relocated its event from Mississauga to Hamilton, Ont.
Hizb ut-Tahrir Canada has announced its conference on “eliminating the obstacles” to uniting a universal Islamic caliphate and overthrowing all other governments around the world said the event will now take place at an undisclosed Hamilton location.
The group, banned in the UK, Germany, India and China but not Canada, announced the location swap on social media following a hard stance against the event by Mississauga Mayor Carolyn Parrish.
The intended location of the event is undisclosed at this time.
The conference caught the eye of tech CEO Elon Musk, who expressed disbelief that the event could occur in Canada. Continue...

“None of the above” is Canadians’ top pick for new Liberal leader: poll
https://tnc.news/2025/01/07/none-of-the-above-is-canadians-top-pick/
When asked which current MP should take over the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada, Canadians were most likely to choose “none of the above.”
Pollsters contacted1,045 Canadians in a survey conducted by Nanos Research and commissioned by CTV News between Dec. 30, 2024, and Jan. 5, 2025 – the week before Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s announced plan to resign once a replacement is selected.
Trudeau was included on the poll’s list as a candidate to remain as leader of the party. Other options were Chrystia Freeland, Mark Carney, Mélanie Joly, Christy Clark, François Philippe-Champagne, Dominic LeBlanc, Anita Anand, and Sean Fraser. However, the most popular pick for Canadians was “none of the above.”
Following Trudeau’s resignation, Conservative MP Dan Albas joked about who was taking the early lead in the party’s leadership contest. Continue...

Business community reacts to Trudeau resignation announcement with tariff concerns, hope for future
https://tnc.news/2025/01/07/business-community-reacts-to-trudeau-resignation/
Canada’s business community is hoping that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation announcement may clear the air of economic uncertainty but is also worried about how prorogation may affect trade negotiations with the U.S.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday that he would be stepping down as leader of the Liberals and prime minister following a leadership contest to find a replacement.
This comes at a time when President-elect Donald Trump has promised to impose a blanket 25% trade tariff on Canadian imports – a move which could send Canada hurdling into a recession.
The Greater Vancouver Board of Trade provided True North with a copy of the statement sent out to members saying that Canada’s political uncertainty comes at a “perilous time.”
“When Parliament returns in March, the opposition parties have committed to triggering an election. The uncertainty in Ottawa comes at a perilous time. With the challenges posed by a Trump Presidency, along with significant domestic and global pressures, Canada needs focused leadership to steer our national economy back on course,” wrote the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade.

Trudeau’s ‘Online Harms’ bill likely dead now that Parliament has been suspended
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/trudeaus-online-harms-bill-likely-dead-now-that-parliament-has-been-suspended/
Now that Trudeau has announced his intent to resign and prorogue Parliament until March, there is a good chance his now-infamous 'Online Harms' bill will be scrapped.
An internet censorship bill which would have censored legal online content posted on social media through burdensome regulations is likely dead now that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has prorogued Parliament until the end of March.
Bill C-63, known as the Online Harms Act, was put forth under the guise of protecting children from exploitation online but also sought to expand the scope of “hate speech” prosecutions, and even desired to target such speech retroactively and preemptively.
The bill had called for the creation of a Digital Safety Commission, a digital safety ombudsperson, and a Digital Safety Office, all tasked with policing internet content. It was blasted by constitutional experts as troublesome.
Due to Trudeau announcing on Monday morning that he plans to step down as Liberal Party leader once a new leader has been chosen, Parliament has been shut down. This means all bills, committees and other meetings have all been canceled.
In Canada, the procedure of proroguing Parliament, which is not often used, must first be approved by Governor General Mary Simon. On Monday, she granted Trudeau’s request to prorogue Parliament until the end of March as the Liberals select a new leader.
Canada’s House of Commons procedure and practice reads, “Bills which have not received Royal Assent before prorogation are ‘entirely terminated’ and to be proceeded with in the new session, must be reintroduced as if they had.”
“On occasion, however, bills have been reinstated by motion at the start of a new session at the same stage they had reached at the end of the previous session; committee work has similarly been revived.”
The likelihood of bills being “reinstated” via a motion is highly unlikely, as come March when Parliament resumes, the government will likely fall, as all opposition parties have promised to vote no-confidence in the Liberal government.
Bill C-63 bill’s “hate speech” section is accompanied by broad definitions, severe penalties, and dubious tactics, including levying preemptive judgments against people if they are feared to be likely to commit an act of “hate” in the future. Continue...

Monday, during an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “The Faulkner Focus,” Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) credited President-elect Donald Trump for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s abrupt departure earlier in the day.
According to the Florida Republican lawmaker, Trudeau concluded that he was not “qualified” to take on the incoming U.S. president.
“What would say in South, Harris, is bless his heart,” she said. “He has struggled … as you said, this is no surprise to see Prime Minister Trudeau’s resignation. This has been a long time coming. He has been Canada last in terms of policies and Canadians are sick and tired of it. You mention the border situation we have in Ottawa. We know of terrorist cells that have been discovered in Ottawa that have posed a national security threat to Americans. We have trade disputes — whether it is lumber, potatoes.

Trudeau’s term as PM was a boon for Canada, but not the way he expected
https://www.rt.com/news/610531-canada-trudeau-pm-service/
The outgoing leader managed to unite his nation, most of which now hates him
Another one bites the dust. Before he can get pushed into it.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau came back from a rough Christmas break and promptly resigned. During his holiday downtime, he headed over to the westernmost province of British Columbia for some skiing, where he was caught on camera being welcomed by a local, who said as he went over to shake her hand, “Mr. Prime Minister, please get the f**k out of BC. You suck!” A growing chorus of homegrown profanity has followed Trudeau wherever he ends up going.
Merely days later, on January 6, he stood in front of the press at his Rideau Cottage residence and announced that he was stepping down, citing the desire to offer Canadians a “real choice.” Like he was sacrificing himself for the greater good of the country. In reality, he was just battering himself up and tossing himself on the barbecue before his own party did – which they were expected to do just two days later at a caucus meeting.
During his announcement, Trudeau demonstrated that he’s suffering from an incurable case of woke mind virus. He underscored his commitment to Ukraine, to “truth and reconciliation” with natives, and to climate change. Meanwhile, Canadians of all political stripes and backgrounds are more focused now on how to save their own behinds from impending economic doom, exacerbated by the carbon tax imposed by Trudeau, than they are with the abstract notion that by slitting their fiscal wrists for the planet, they can control its temperature.

Sounds unbelievable, but the echoes of his latest espionage scandal have not even died out, and a new concern about the Duke of York has hit the headlines of newspapers in the UK and around the world.
It arises now that Andrew has been reported to police after using the name ‘Inverness’ to register companies in Britain.
The anti-monarchy campaign group Republic accuses the Duke of ‘filing false information’.
It was revealed back in 2019 that Andrew secretly set up a private investment fund under the name ‘Andrew Inverness’ to ‘channel deals brokered at Buckingham Palace’.
Now, he is the owner of four linked companies registered at Companies House under this name.
Andrew is described on official documents as a “consultant” to these companies. Continue...

Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Finally Responds to Trump’s ‘Vow’ to Make Canada the 51st State – Gets Roasted on X
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/outgoing-canadian-prime-minister-justin-trudeau-finally-responds/
The worst leader in Canada’s history has now stepped up to the plate to take on President Trump regarding the critical issue of The Great White North’s entry into the United States. Unsurprisingly, his response went horribly wrong in a hurry.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, soon-to-be former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation as leader of his Liberal Party Monday morning during a news conference. He will remain Liberal leader and prime minster until his replacement is chosen in March.
This came following Trump’s vow last month to impose a 25% tariff on all products from Canada and Mexico in response to the “illegal alien invasion and ‘promising’ to ‘annex’ Canada as the 51st state. While Trudeau traveled to Mar-a-Lago to bend the knee to Trump on tariffs, he had noticeably remained silent on whether Canada should become another star on the American flag.
Until now.
Trudeau finally responded to Trump’s on the subject Tuesday and it was as pathetic as one would expect. Why he decided to wait until a day after announcing he was quitting or reply at all is a mystery.
“There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that Canada would become part of the United States,” Trudeau wrote on X.
“Workers and communities in both our countries benefit from being each other’s biggest trading and security partner,” he added. Continue...

Canadian leaders cannot contain themselves as President Trump continues to dunk all over their weaker nation.
As The Daily Mail reported, Ontario Premier Doug Ford, a member of Canada’s Progressive Conservative Party, was fuming over Trump’s continued trolling over buying Canada and proceeded to completely embarrass himself.
Reporters on Tuesday got the chance to interrogate Ford, who is infamous for spending like disgraced now-former Canadian Prime minster Justin Trudeau and barbaric COVID lockdown policies, over Trump’s comments. Ford responded with an outlandish statement that should only provoke laughter from the 45th and soon-to-be 47th president.
After hailing Canada and Ontario, Ford proceeded to make a counteroffer to Trump to buy two American states. Continue...

https://tnc.news/2025/01/07/ratiod-no-joke-donald-trump-threatens-to-annex-canada-by-economic-force/
Donald Trump has threatened to annex Canada by economic force today at a press conference at Mar-A-Lago after weeks of taunting Canada’s outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as “Governor of the 51st state”. This is an escalation in rhetoric from Donald Trump and one of the first open threats of annexation in perhaps over 100 years by an incoming US President. All of this comes at a time when Canada has a prorogued parliament with a lame duck prime minister and essentially no cabinet.
This is not a joke anymore and it should not be laughed at. Canada needs a leader right now and a parliament in session. Enough is enough.

Relief sweeps social media as Trudeau bows out, but a few loyalists stand firm
https://tnc.news/2025/01/07/relief-sweeps-social-media-trudeau-bows-out/
Many breathed a sigh of relief when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his plans to resign but a few political allies spoke highly about his time in office.
On Monday, Trudeau announced in front of Rideau Hall that he will be stepping down as the Liberal party leader and prime minister once a new leader is selected to replace him. The news of the event quickly prompted reactions from some well-known commentators and political figures on social media.
American author and journalist Michael Shellenberger responded with a scathing review of Trudeau’s legacy, calling the Canadian prime minister an advocate of censorship.
“Justin Trudeau has resigned. He framed himself as an honest, caring, and compassionate leader. He was not. He falsely smeared his critics as Nazis. He justified freezing bank accounts using faked intelligence. And he spread disinformation while demanding censorship,” said author and journalist Micheal Shellenberger in a post to X. Continue...

Jordan Peterson calls Trudeau a perpetual liar, a ‘curse’ to Canada
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/watch-jordan-peterson-calls-trudeau-a-perpetual-liar-a-curse-to-canada/60954
Canadian author and psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson told a UK talk show host that the disingenuous Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the worst thing to happen to Canada in his lifetime.
Speaking to Piers Morgan Monday night, Peterson said he’s “never heard Justin Trudeau say a true word in his entire life.”
“Everything he does is an act,” said Peterson. Continue...

Newly Declassified Files Reveal How Americans, Including Unsuspecting Civilians, Drugged and Tortured in CIA’s Secret Mind Control Program MKUltra
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/newly-declassified-files-reveal-how-americans-including-unsuspecting/
Newly declassified CIA files have shed light on the extent of the agency’s notorious MKUltra program, a series of mind control experiments conducted during the Cold War era.
On December 23, the National Security Agency (NSA) declassified a total of 20 documents spanning over 1,200 pages, shedding light on covert CIA activities conducted between 1953 and 1964.
This covert initiative involved a staggering 144 projects that explored the use of drugs, psychological torture, and sensory manipulation to alter human behavior.
CIA Deputy Director Allen Dulles spearheaded the initiative, justifying it as a response to perceived threats from Soviet and Chinese psychological warfare programs. Continue...

The FBI’s Progressive Recruitment Crisis: How DEI Policies Are Undermining National Security
https://gatewayhispanic.com/2025/01/the-fbis-progressive-recruitment-crisis-how-dei-policies-are-undermining-national-security/
Progressivism has emerged as a serious threat to both the nation and civilization itself. It is not merely an ideological stance; it directly undermines security in the name of “diversity.” This danger was starkly revealed through the FBI’s recruitment process during the Biden-Harris administration.
A report presented to the House Judiciary Committee by an alliance of both retired and active-duty FBI agents and analysts has exposed a troubling decline in the bureau’s recruitment standards.
The English acronym for the policies—Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)—mirrors the Spanish terms, shedding light on the nature of the changes. Under these guidelines, FBI Director Chris Wray significantly lowered recruitment standards across all areas of selection. Continue...

Ontario deploys 200 officers to secure Ontario-U.S. border, partnering with RCMP
https://tnc.news/2025/01/08/ontario-deploys-officers-secure-us-border-rcmp/
The Ontario government unveiled a new framework on Tuesday to enhance border security along the province’s border with the United States.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced “Operation Deterrence” a day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau revealed he was planning to resign once a new Liberal leader was selected.
The Ontario government has already requested that Ottawa address the province’s economic and security concerns by matching U.S. tariffs on China, banning Chinese software in cars, delaying the digital services tax, and finally meeting NATO’s 2% of GDP defence spending requirements.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said it was time to put words into action.
“In the meantime, Ontario is stepping up with Operation Deterrence to crack down on illegal border crossings and illegal guns and drugs,” said Ford. “A more coordinated, Team Canada approach that includes more boots on the ground is the only way to detect, deter and disrupt illegal activity and ensure the safety and security of Canadian and American communities.”
Ford spoke of Trudeau’s resignation the day before the border plan was announced. Continue...

Canadians challenge Prime Minister’s decision to prorogue Parliament: “no reasonable justification”
https://www.jccf.ca/canadians-challenge-prime-ministers-decision-to-prorogue-parliament-no-reasonable-justification/
TORONTO: The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is providing lawyers on an urgent basis to two Canadians, David MacKinnon and Aris Lavranos, seeking a Federal Court declaration that Prime Minister Trudeau’s recent prorogation of Parliament is unreasonable and must be set aside.
When Parliament is prorogued, the parliamentary session is terminated, and all parliamentary activity, including work on bills and in committees, immediately stops.
Among its many grounds arguing that Trudeau’s decision to advise the Governor General to exercise her prerogative power to prorogue Parliament to March 24, 2025, this application argues that the decision to prorogue Parliament was “incorrect, unreasonable or both.” The court application, filed today, contends that the Prime Minister’s decision to prorogue “was not made in furtherance of Parliamentary business or the business of government, but in service of the interests of the LPC [Liberal Party of Canada].”
At his news conference yesterday, on January 6, 2025, the Prime Minister’s stated justification for the prorogation was (1) to “reset” Parliament and (2) to permit the Liberal Party of Canada time to select a new party leader. No explanation was provided as to why Parliament could not recess instead. No explanation was provided as to why Members of Parliaments could not immediately exercise their right to vote on a motion of non-confidence in the government. A majority of MPs have now repeatedly promised to do just that, which would trigger an election and provide the needed “reset” in a democratic and legitimate way. Continue...

https://www.rt.com/news/610580-zelensky-us-firms-corruption-aid/
Kiev has not received half the funds it was promised, due to “lobbyist” practices by the American military, the Ukrainian leader claimed
US corporate “corruption” and “lobbying” are to blame for Ukraine not receiving half the military aid it has been promised by Washington, Vladimir Zelensky has claimed.
The Ukrainian leader stated last month that while the US has allocated around $177 billion to finance Kiev since the escalation of the conflict with Russia in 2022, not all the funds or assistance packages have been delivered.
During an interview with podcaster Lex Fridman on Sunday, Zelensky claimed that Kiev has not yet received even half of the support promised by Washington. He claimed that he’d appealed to Washington to be allowed use Ukraine's own fleet of cargo planes to deliver aid to avoid paying transport fees. Continue...

Ford retorts Trump’s merger talk with plan to power up U.S.-Canada energy alliance
https://tnc.news/2025/01/08/ford-retorts-trumps-merger-talk-energy-alliance/
Instead of “wasting time” on unrealistic U.S.-Canada merger rhetoric, Ontario Premier Doug Ford hopes that incoming President-elect Donald Trump might be swayed by his new plan to supercharge Canadian energy exports to the United States.
Despite previously threatening retaliation against Trump’s proposed tariffs, Ford outlined his Fortress Am-Can plan on Wednesday, with particular attention paid to Trump’s goal of decoupling the American economy from China.
If implemented, Fortress Am-Can would expand existing electricity grids and pipelines shared between Canada and the United States. The plan also hopes to streamline the approval process for new small modular and large nuclear reactors, while cutting other red tape.
Ontario recommended a suite of measures on top of building Fortress Am-Can. Among the recommendations is establishing a working group between lawmakers in the two countries to address threats posed by foreign interference, cyberattacks, terrorism, and extreme weather.
“By leveraging our nuclear energy advantage and proven technologies, we can displace reliance on undemocratic regimes as we generate more clean power for our economy and the world,” said Ontario’s Minister of Energy Stephen Lecce.
The Ontario government has already called on the Liberals to address U.S. economic and security concerns by matching U.S. tariffs on China, banning Chinese software in cars, delaying the digital services tax, and finally meeting its 2% of GDP on defence spending NATO requirement.
If Ontario were a standalone country, it would be the U.S.’s third-largest trading partner, with two-way trade totalling $493 billion in 2023. Ontario is the number one export destination for 17 U.S. states and comes second in 11. Continue...

The Political Persecution of Detective Helen Grus: A Case That Exposes Corruption and Betrayal in Canada (Video)
https://rairfoundation.com/political-persecution-detective-helen-grus-case-that-exposes/?ref=truth11.com
Detective Helen Grus of the Ottawa Police Service is not just fighting for her career—she is fighting for truth, transparency, and the very integrity of law enforcement. Her ordeal began with a simple but urgent investigation into a shocking spike in unexplained infant deaths. What she uncovered, however, threatened to expose uncomfortable truths about the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines, setting off a relentless campaign to silence and destroy her.
This is not merely a story about one police officer. It is a harrowing example of how Western institutions, once rooted in evidence-based decision-making and transparency, are being weaponized to serve political agendas. It is a case that demands attention—not just for what it says about Canada, but for what it reveals about the state of justice and accountability across the West. Continue...

Peter Sweden: Sweden CLOSING Churches to Meet Climate Goals
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/peter-sweden-sweden-closing-churches-meet-climate-goals/
Remember when people were called ”crazy conspiracy theorists” for talking about climate lockdowns?
Well, we essentially have that happening now in Sweden.
The Church of Sweden has decided to SHUT DOWN 7 churches from the Middle Ages in order to meet climate goals.
The churches will be shut in the winter months between October to May.
Being very old, these churches are of course poorly insulated and they are being heated with oil.
However, they have now decided not to fill up any more oil to heat the churches – This to meet the climate goals of the Church of Sweden to be fossil free by the year 2027.
So instead of keeping the churches open, they are shutting them down in the name of climate change.
Do you think that is what Jesus would have done?
The Church of Sweden is very progressive. For example, some years ago the encouraged clergy to use gender neutral language when talking about God, despite the Bible being very clear that God is masculine.
Now they are essentially engaging in climate lockdowns.
Seems to me that the woke climate cult religion is more important for them now than Christianity.

NO CRIMINAL INDICTMENTS: Florida Grand Jury Finds No Evidence of Criminal Activity by COVID-19 Vaccine Manufacturers
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/no-criminal-indictments-florida-grand-jury-finds-no/
A statewide grand jury has concluded its investigation into COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers, determining that there was no indictable criminal activity.
This decision comes as a bitter pill for countless families who have suffered from vaccine injuries and adverse effects—an outcome many see as another example of Big Pharma’s iron grip on the system.
In December 2022, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) called on a statewide grand jury to investigate COVID vaccine-related injuries.
“I’m announcing a petition with the Supreme Court of Florida to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate any and all wrongdoing in Florida with respect to Covid vaccines,” DeSantis said during a Covid vaccine accountability roundtable.
“We anticipate that we will get the approval for that, that will be something that will be impaneled most likely in the Tampa Bay area and that will come with legal processes that will be able to get more information and to bring legal accountability for those who committed misconduct,” DeSantis added.
A week later, the Florida Supreme Court approved Gov. DeSantis’ request to impanel a grand jury to investigate COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers.
“A statewide grand jury shall be promptly impaneled for a term of twelve calendar months, to run from the date of impanelment, with jurisdiction throughout the State of Florida, to investigate crime, return indictments, make presentments, and otherwise perform all functions of a grand jury with regard to the offenses stated herein,” the order read.
Last year, the statewide grand jury, usually comprised of 18 people and selected through a random process akin to that of any legal jury, published an interim report.
Now on Tuesday, the Twenty-Second Statewide Grand Jury has concluded its investigation into COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers, finding "no evidence of criminal activity."
Gov. Ron DeSantis released the following statement on Tuesday: Continue...

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò Fires Back: Defends Trump’s Immigration Policies Against Newly Appointed DC Archbishop’s Claims of ‘Incompatibility with Catholic Doctrine’
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/archbishop-carlo-maria-vigano-fires-back-defends-trumps/
The ideological battle over immigration policies has spilled into the Catholic Church, with Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò forcefully countering claims made by the newly appointed Washington, DC, Archbishop Robert McElroy.
McElroy, widely known for his leftist views and frequent critiques of President Trump, suggested on Monday that Trump’s proposed deportation policies are “incompatible with Catholic doctrine.”
During a press conference, McElroy acknowledged that the Catholic Church recognizes a nation’s right to secure its borders.
However, he claimed that large-scale deportations of illegal immigrants would violate the dignity of individuals and Catholic teachings, Breitbart reported.
“We are called always to have a sense of the dignity of every human person. And thus, plans which have been talked about at some levels of having a wider indiscriminate massive deportation across the country would be something that would be incompatible with Catholic doctrine,” McElroy said.
He added, “So, we’ll have to see what emerges in the administration.”
Archbishop Viganò, a staunch critic of Pope Francis and globalist policies, did not hold back in his rebuttal. He argued that safeguarding a nation’s borders is not only a legal right but a moral obligation dictated by Natural Law and common sense.
Viganò accused McElroy and others within the Church hierarchy of aligning with leftist political and globalist agendas under the guise of compassion.
He called out the complicity between what he terms the “deep church” and the “deep state,” alleging that both entities profit from unchecked illegal immigration.

During a meeting of Ukraine's defense allies held at Ramstein Air Base in Germany on Thursday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tried to once again get his backers to escalate their entry into the war with Russia.
We can perhaps expect such desperate, harebrained appeals to be floated each day until Trump takes office on January 20. Zelensky wants as much commitment to the war from the West as possible ahead of a Trump administration which has repeatedly vowed to negotiate a swift end to the nearly three-year long conflict.
Zelensky's newest pitch issued Thursday is for the deployment of Western troops in large numbers to Ukrainian soil. He called this one of the "best instruments" to "force Russia to peace." Continue...

“Numerous explosions were reported near the target and a large-scale fire broke out. Local authorities confirm that an ‘industrial facility’ was hit (…) More detailed information on the results of combat operations is being clarified,” it was written.

With Trudeau On His Way Out, Can Canadians Get Their Free Speech Back?
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trudeau-his-way-out-can-canadians-get-their-free-speech-back
With Justin Trudeau’s announcement that he will step down as prime minister, Canada is now looking for a new leader after a decade under his policies. The question is whether anyone will look for the remnants of Canadian free speech in the wreckage of the Trudeau government.
In my book “The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage,” I write about the collapse of free speech in Canada under Trudeau.
Canada has long been a country caught between two influences: the United Kingdom and the United States.
It has shared DNA with both nations. Unfortunately, it has largely followed the British approach in treating free speech more like a privilege than a right.
That dubious tradition was magnified over the last decade by a wholesale attack on free speech deemed hostile, insulting or triggering for different groups.
In many ways, Canada has been a cautionary tale for many in the U.S., as the same voices of censorship and criminalization grow on our campuses and in Congress.
Indeed, BlueSky, a social media site that offers a safe space for liberals who do not want to be triggered by opposing views, has apparently embraced Canadian-style standards for censorship as part of its pitch for those with viewpoint intolerance.
For over a decade, Trudeau has been the cheerful face of modern censorship. While exuding tolerance and inclusivity, he hammered critics with draconian measures and perfectly Orwellian soundbites. In the name of tolerance, he proudly proclaimed intolerance for opposing views. Continue...

Ottawa detective who ran unsanctioned vaccine harm probe sues CBC for $875k
https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/ottawa-detective-vaccine-probe-sues-cbc/
An Ottawa detective facing disciplinary action related to investigating infant deaths is taking Canada’s state broadcaster to court.
Det. Helen Grus, who finished testifying before her long-running disciplinary tribunal Monday, is suing CBC for $875,000, alleging the broadcaster has waged an “adverse campaign of publishing harmful, malicious, and harassing newspaper articles containing false statements.”
Grus is taking issue with pieces CBC ran between March 2022 and December 2023.
The Ottawa Police Service’s professional standards unit (PSU) charged Grus in July of 2022 with discreditable conduct for actions she took probing a link between experimental COVID vaccines and a spike in infant deaths in the region. At the time of her purported offence, Grus was a member of the sex assault and child abuse (SACA) unit, whose responsibilities included investigating deaths of children under five.
A CBC reporter is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit according to documents filed at Ontario Superior Court last fall. In the statement of claim, which has not been tested or proven in court, Grus alleges that CBC’s Mar. 28 and Mar. 31 articles in 2022 – based on confidential information from unnamed sources within Ottawa Police Service – precipitated the administrative charge against her.
Grus’ claim also notes a third story published by CBC in December 2023 repeated similar false statements and “interfered with (her) privacy and reputation” while her case was before the tribunal. It was published a day before Grus’ lawyer, Bath-Shéba van den Berg, appeared before Ontario divisional court in a failed attempt to have a police duty book released to her client.
The named reporter did not respond to True North’s request for comment, but network spokesperson Chuck Thompson said in an email that “CBC believes the claims made by Detective Grus in her lawsuit are entirely without merit.”
On the first day of tribunal hearings in August 2023, police witness and lead PSU investigator Sgt. Jason Arbuthnot directly references the CBC stories in a nearly three-hour audio recording of Grus’ compelled statement played by prosecutors for the tribunal. Continue...

https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/real-estate-agent-banned-anti-pride-comments/
An Ottawa real estate association has banned a real estate agent for comments he made on social media criticizing LGBT pride.
The Ottawa Real Estate Board, a private board that provides listing services to real estate agents in the city, banned Marc Papineau, a 14-year agent, from doing business with the organization after he failed to pay a fine it levied against him for the comments.
In a lengthy 2023 social media post, Papineau said he doesn’t think LGBT “Pride” should be celebrated for an entire month when veterans only get one day to be recognized. He also said drag shows aren’t appropriate for kids and that sexual preference should be a topic only discussed by adults.
Following the comments, the Reddit activists filed complaints against Papineau to both the Real Estate Council of Ontario – the regulatory body for the industry in the province – and the Ottawa Real Estate Board.
The provincial regulatory body determined that Papineau’s comments were personal in nature and did not warrant disciplinary action. He is still listed as an agent in good standing with no restrictions or disciplinary action on the council’s website.
The Ottawa Real Estate Board – a private industry association – took a different stance.
According to records of appeal decisions, disciplinary hearing transcripts and notices of termination acquired by True North, the board considered Papineau’s posts professional because he also posts business-related content on his personal account.
His ban means that he is no longer able to list properties on Realtor.ca, also known as the multiple listing service (MLS).
While Papineau said he regrets how he phrased his comments, he still thinks the backlash has been disproportionate. Continue...

Rustad demands independent review of 2024 B.C. election alleging votes by non-citizens
https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/rustad-review-bc-election-non-citizens/
Conservative Party of British Columbia Leader John Rustad announced his party has discovered alleged voting irregularities in one of the 2024 provincial election’s closest ridings – Surrey-Guildford. The riding was won by the BC NDP Party by a margin of just 22 votes after a judicial recount.
The BC Conservative leader spoke at a press conference in front of the provincial legislature in Victoria on Thursday morning, announcing that his party has reason to be suspect of the final results.
“There’s been many people who have brought forward a tremendous amount of information to us about the election,” said Rustad.
The B.C. Conservatives have said they have filed a complaint with Elections B.C. regarding their findings.
Rustad claimed he did not comment on the allegations during the election because he believes British Columbians need to have confidence in the electoral system and didn’t want to add any rumours but wanted to make sure that his claims were based in facts.
The BC Conservative leader alleged there was evidence of irregularities related to a senior home in the riding, instances of people voting twice and votes submitted by non-Canadian citizens.
“We have cases where an individual went to vote and was told somebody had already voted using their name,” explained Rustad.
Specifically, Rustad pointed to discrepancies in addresses and 21 irregular votes being registered to a senior home.
“In Surrey-Guildford we found a case of a double vote, we have found a case of there being at least 2,000 being cast of people whose place of residence that was on Elections BC is not where they currently live,” said Rustad.
“One of the more serious issues we have found is associated with a care facility of seniors where 21 ballots were cast and individuals in that facility have come forward with affidavits of what went on.”
BC NDP candidate Gary Begg defeated BC Conservative Honveer Singh Randhawa by one of the narrowest victories in last year’s hotly contested election.
Rustad made several recommendations including a call for an independent review into the election process. Additionally, Rustad called for changes to the Elections Act, which was authored by BC NDP Premier David Eby in 2019.
“We are making a recommendation that all photo ID issued should have a ‘C’ on it to ensure that the individuals are Canadian citizens,” said Rustad.
“The last recommendation is we actually think there are many people who have voted who may not be Canadian citizens, however, nobody wants to come forward because they are worried of what may happen. I think we must suspend the penalties for a 90-day period to allow people to come forward and explain what happened.”
True North contacted Elections BC to inquire if they were aware of any irregularities or if there were any ongoing investigations into the matter, however, they were not available for contact in time for publication.

X users expose how easy it is to register as Liberals ahead of leadership race
https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/x-users-expose-register-liberals-leadership-race/
As Canadians count down the days until a new Liberal party leader is chosen and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigns, many on X are exposing vulnerabilities in the Liberal Party of Canada’s registration process.
A Conservative leadership election committee chair and Elections Canada have expressed concerns with the membership rules that open the Liberal party up to foreign interference ahead of the first federal leadership race.
Now, several X users are registering under fake aliases, such as their dogs, and using fake addresses, including the Prime Minister’s residence and Chinese consulate buildings.
According to the rules governing membership registration Liberals, voters do not need to be Canadian citizens or permanent residents.
“SCHEDULE A Qualifications for Registration Registration in the Liberal Party of Canada is open without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age or physical disability,” it says. Continue...

https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/fs-former-liberal-mp-path-ahead-liberal-party/
Long time Liberal MP from 1993-2011 Dan McTeague predicts that the Liberal Party of Canada won’t survive after the next federal election due to the leadership of outgoing prime minister Justin Trudeau. McTeague believes that the Liberal Party of the past, a party built around the ideas of pragmatism and fiscal responsibility has been replaced by a far-left ideology headed by Justin Trudeau which is at odds with the majority of Canadians.
Tune in to the latest episode of The Faulkner Show for a wide ranging discussion about the state of the Liberal Party, potential new leaders and how Canada should respond to the expansionist threat posed by U.S. president-elect Donald Trump.

Liberal MP who petitioned against foreign agent registry running to replace Trudeau as leader
https://tnc.news/2025/01/09/liberal-mp-against-foreign-agent-registry-running/
Liberal MP Chandra Arya is the second candidate to officially announce his bid to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau following his resignation announcement.
Arya, originally from India, announced on X that he intends to become the leader of the Liberal party and, in turn, become the prime minister of Canada.
Arya has been elected in his Nepean, Ont., riding three times since the Liberal government first came into power in 2015. He’s worked in financial investment firms, owned a manufacturing company and was an executive at a high-tech defence technology company for six years before entering politics.
He also sponsored a petition for the government to reassess the foreign agent registry, which would have forced individuals working on behalf of a foreign government to register their activities in Canada.
The registry was supposed to help mitigate foreign influence, but Arya claimed it would be used to harass and intimidate ethnic minorities. Despite Arya’s protests, Bill C-70, the Countering Foreign Interference Act, which established the registry, received Royal Assent on June 20, 2024.
When True North asked MPs if they were involved in foreign interference, Arya did not respond, though only five Liberal MPs responded to deny involvement. Continue...

Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared on CNN for an interview Thursday evening, claiming that Trump’s win in the November election was not a factor in his decision to resign and blamed discontent from his citizens on "right-wing attacks" and "disinformation."
Jake Tapper asked Trudeau whether the election of Trump played "any role at all in your decision to resign as leader of your party and prime minister," to which Trudeau replied, "No, on the contrary." Continue...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau went on CNN to blame the Los Angeles wildfires on climate change.
Trudeau said wildfires are worsening due to climate change and requiring more government resources and expertise to fight them.
"Over the past years, we've seen it get far worse, and we've seen wildfires increasingly encroaching on urban areas," said Trudeau.
"Also, know that climate change means they're gonna get steadily worse, and we have to keep stepping up in fighting climate change."
Trudeau said that California Governor Gavin Newsom is accepting Canadian firefighting equipment.
"We've offered a tremendous amount of equipment that they're already accepting," said Trudeau.

"Watching Justin Trudeau on CNN is like being in a Hell of Hell," one user wrote on X.
During an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Justin Trudeau offered his take on what it means to be Canadian.
In an inadvertent paraphrasing of Kanye West's "everything I'm not made me everything I am," the prime minister defined the people of his nation as "not American."
When pressed on how he will handle President Donald Trump's numerous threats, Trudeau made it clear Canada would never be the 51st state.
"Canadians are incredibly proud of being Canadian," he told Tapper. "One of the ways we define ourselves most easily is, 'We're not American'."
Trudeau's comments drew criticism on social media. One X user said, "Watching Justin Trudeau on CNN is like being in a Hell of Hell."
Another said, "When you make not being American your national identity, you have no national identity — and you should stop pretending otherwise."

He is urgently seeking a human rights attorney to expose the gross violation of his son’s constitutional rights and the failure of the U.S. government under Joe Biden to protect one of its own citizens.

For years EU globalist elites ruled Germany and several European nations and allowed for millions of Africans and Arabs to flood into their borders.

At the same time these elites smeared and lied about Germany’s AfD Party in Germany that condemned the mass migration into their country. Continue...

All over Europe, the mainstream parties have tried to prevent right-wing candidates from taking advantage of the European climate that is shifting citizens’ opinions towards the right side of the political spectrum.
In Romania they went as far as annulling the whole election under the bogus suspicion of ‘Russian interference’.
Now, the ruling coalition in Bucharest agreed to rerun a two-round presidential election on May 4 and May 18.
The liberals and Globalists will endorse a single candidate to try to keep right-wing Calin Georgescu from repeating his win in the annulled first presidential round on Nov. 24.

UK Government Investigating Elon Musk's Tweets About Muslim Pedophile Gangs
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/uk-government-investigating-elon-musks-tweets-about-muslim-pedophile-gangs
Elon Musk’s tweets about Muslim pedophile gangs are being assessed by the UK Government’s counter-extremism unit, as a potential threat to the security of the country, it has emerged.
The Daily Mirror reports that The Home Office unit has stepped up social media monitoring of accounts with large followings, including Musk’s, as pertains to the grooming gangs issue.
Musk has posted hundreds of tweets in the past week related to the scandal, including openly calling Prime Minister Kier Starmer “evil,” accusing him of facilitating a cover up, and labelling Starmer and safeguarding minister Jess Philips as complicit in the “rape” of Britain.
The Mirror report states that the UK government’s counterterrorism unit has “been involved in content analysis and wider risk assessment.”
A government source told the Mirror “We keep a close eye on how disinformation and hate can proliferate, including online.”
John Woodcock, the government’s adviser on political violence and disruption, asserted that “Britain’s democracy isn’t a play thing for foreign billionaires – Elon Musk needs to back off and concentrate on his rockets and his cars or whatever he wants to obsess about next. Our electoral laws rightly forbid foreign donations and my recent review warns against our information channels being deliberately manipulated from abroad. We should be watching closely to ensure that doesn’t happen here.”
The government’s website states that the counter-extremism unit “focuses on the highest harm risks to the homeland, whether from terrorists, state actors, or cyber and economic criminals,”
While the tweets are being investigated, the government has rejected calls for a new national inquiry into the pedophile gangs scandal, with ministers voting down a move to legislate for an inquiry.
They’re investigating Elon talking about the horrific systemic gang raping of kids but not the actual horrific systemic gang raping of kids itself. Why do you think that is? https://t.co/JuN8GPM8md

Hassan Diab, 71, was convicted of having taken part in a 1980 Paris synagogue bombing that left four dead and dozens injured.
An alleged terrorist has been fired from his teaching position at Carleton University following backlash.
Hassan Diab, 71, was convicted of having taken part in a 1980 Paris synagogue bombing that left four dead and dozens injured.
Among those who lead the charge to get Diab fired was B'nai Brith Canada.
"For months, we stood firm against the unacceptable decision to allow a convicted terrorist to hold a position of influence over students," the group wrote in a post on X after being told Diab was no longer teaching at the institution.
"Diab's employment as a lecturer was a betrayal of the Canadian values of justice, safety, and accountability."
"We commend Carleton University for taking the necessary steps to rectify this grave misstep, demonstrating its commitment to maintaining an environment that reflects the values of integrity, responsibility, and respect for all students."
"This decision is an important acknowledgment of the need to ensure our educational institutions prioritize the well-being and academic success of their students."
The group added that it will continue to advocate for Diab's extradition to France to "face justice."

Photos link Mark Carney to sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell
https://www.westernstandard.news/canadian/photos-link-mark-carney-to-sex-trafficker-ghislaine-maxwell/61056
Conservative operatives are being blamed for circulating decade-old photos showing potential Liberal leadership candidate Mark Carney with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell at a 2013 British festival.
The images, which emerged on social media Monday from an anonymous account, show the former Bank of Canada governor and his wife Diana Fox Carney with Maxwell at the upscale Wilderness Festival in Oxfordshire, England.
A source close to Carney dismissed any suggestion of a meaningful connection between the banker and Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking related to her association with Jeffrey Epstein.
"As a child, the woman you reference went to the same high school as Mr. Carney's wife's sister. While they have bumped into each other in public settings (including the 11-year-old photos you've sent), they are not friends," the source told the Toronto Sun.
The photos were taken at an event hosted at Cornbury Park, the estate of Carney's sister-in-law Lady Tania Rotherwick, shortly after Carney assumed his role as Bank of England governor.
British media described the festival as "Poshstock," catering to wealthy attendees with luxury amenities.
The Carney campaign has accused Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and adviser Jenni Byrne of releasing the photos.
While the photos are prior to Maxwell's arrest and conviction, they were taken several years after her associate Jeffrey Epstein served 13 months in prison for sexual offences in 2008-09.
Maxwell, who was later convicted of recruiting young girls for Epstein and his associates, was reportedly a longtime friend of Rotherwick and a frequent guest at the festival.
The emergence of these images comes as speculation grows about Carney's potential bid for the Liberal leadership, though he has not officially declared his candidacy.

Chinese Navy Reveals a Naval Artificial Intelligence “Dreadnaught” Moment
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/chinese-navy-reveals-naval-artificial-intelligence-dreadnaught-moment/
There have been “Revolutions in Military Affairs” (RMAs) over the ages. RMAs are pivot points when something changes warfare dramatically. In the naval arena, one of the most memorable RMAs was the introduction of the HMS Dreadnaught in 1906.
It was said, “Dreadnought made every other existing battleship obsolete, and her name became generic for similar fast, modern vessels. All battleships laid down before her were pejoratively labeled “pre-dreadnought.”
The Chinese Navy (PLAN) has revealed a new vessel that may represent the modern, naval “Dreadnaught” moment. The “Killer Whale” (or Orca), autonomous surface combat vessel has recently been shown in China, cruising on the river from its Guangzhou Shipyard.
This vessel is the largest military purpose USV built to date. It is little coincidence that Guangzhou was the location of the shipyard.
Guangzhou is the Silicon Valley region of China, and the Orca is not just an autonomous warship, but a floating combat data center.
This vessel reflects significant data collection, data analysis, and AI-enabled autonomous actioning.
AI and Autonomy are trending topics, but the Orca is far ahead of any other AI-enabled, autonomous vessel publicly known to date. Continue...

If you were scandalized by the European powers sweeping in to force Romania to cancel its Presidential Elections out of fear of right-winger Calin Georgescu, you better buckle up, according to former European Commissioner—and wannabe tyrant—Thierry Breton.
A Eurofanatic and enthusiast for censorship online, Breton had to resign from the EU after unsuccessfully trying to keep the Elon Musk/Donald Trump podcast from being broadcast.
In an interview on Thursday, Breton said that Elon Musk’s ‘interference’ in the upcoming elections in Germany ‘could lead to a cancellation of the election results.’

BlackRock Exits UN-Backed Net-Zero Climate Pact
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/blackrock-exits-un-backed-net-zero-climate-pact
BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager overseeing approximately $11.5 trillion in assets, has decided to withdraw from a climate pact backed by the United Nations (UN) that advocates for aggressive de-carbonizing of the economy.
A BlackRock spokesperson confirmed to The Epoch Times that the company has decided to withdraw from the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative (NZAM), a coalition comprised of over 325 signatories managing more than $57.5 trillion, all committed to the goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 by aligning investment strategies with this objective.
Membership in the climate pact did not affect the way BlackRock managed client portfolios, according to the spokesperson, but it did lead to confusion about the company’s practices and subjected it to legal inquiries from public officials. Despite the NZAM exit, BlackRock remains committed to sustainable investing.
Several major Wall Street banks have recently exited a similar climate-focused organization for lenders called the Net-Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA), which similarly pushes a net-zero goal.
Republicans, particularly from energy-producing states, have criticized the participation of banks and asset managers in net-zero coalitions as part of a progressive agenda and have accused them of antitrust violations. Continue...

...On Friday Finland's Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen announced that the NATO military alliance is sending "two vessels and we are also increasing other activities and presence in the area."
At the start of this week the the British-led Joint Expeditionary Force had announced it would be ramping up its surveillance of undersea infrastructure in the Baltic Sea.
"Finland has long been concerned about the risks to environmental and maritime safety posed by the shadow fleet used by Russia," Valtonen said Friday. "It is clear that the shadow fleet is also a threat to critical underwater infrastructure."
European authorities are still investigating the matter and questioning the crew. There have been reports that the anchor has been recovered from the bottom of the ocean floor.
The West has loudly condemned what it's calling Russia's 'hybrid warfare' targeting key infrastructure in European telecoms. However, officials also still speak in terms of 'assumptions'. Continue...

Gonzalez, meanwhile, has been recognized by the US as 'president-elect' instead of Maduro. On the same day Maduro was sworn in, the US unveiled a $25 million reward for information leading to his arrest.

On Friday Israel has launched new major strikes on Yemen, amid ongoing vows to 'hunt' down Houthi leaders and kill them.
A new Israeli military (IDF) statement said fighter jets struck "on the western coast and inland Yemen" in response to the day prior Houthis having launched three drones at Israel. It also follows a Pentagon-ordered air raid on Yemen earlier this week. The fresh strikes further targeted the port city of Hodeida, Ras Isa Port, Sanaa, as well as North Western Amran province - and reportedly had participation from the US and UK.

Canada plans to fight back against Trump tariffs – Bloomberg
https://www.rt.com/news/610702-canada-us-tariff-fight/
The US President-elect has threatened to put a 25% tax on all imported Canadian goods
Canada is reportedly considering extensive tariffs on American products in response to US President-elect Donald Trump’s threats to impose hefty levies on all Canadian products entering the country, Bloomberg reported on Friday citing anonymous sources.
Trump has said he will impose sweeping tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China as soon as he takes office, in an effort to spur them to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. Specifically, he has vowed to introduce a 25% tax on all products entering the US from Canada and Mexico and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China.
Canadian officials are now reportedly considering their potential response to Trump’s threats, according to Bloomberg’s sources. While no final decision has been made, the measures under discussion are said to include targeting all US exports to Canada, aiming to go “dollar for dollar” on tariffs.
Bloomberg also reported that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has been examining the option of using export taxes on strategic commodities such as oil, uranium, and potash. Continue...

ANALYSIS: Manitoba is regulating machetes, could national knife control be next?
https://tnc.news/2025/01/11/analysis-manitoba-is-regulating-machetes/
Chief Angela Levasseur of the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation in remote northern Manitoba has a big knife problem. Machetes — foot-long, bush knives popular with campers and farmers — have become the weapon of choice for young gang members terrorizing her 3,500-member reserve.
“Over the last two years we have seen a really high level of machete crimes committed by youth and on youth in our community,” she said from Nelson House, 850 km northwest of Winnipeg. “It’s just too easy for anyone to possess a machete.” That’s now changing.
Due in part to Levasseur’s lobbying, Manitoba recently passed Canada’s first machete law. The Long-Bladed Weapon Control Act regulates the sale of any knife longer than 30 cm. Since the beginning of the new year, sales are now restricted to people 18 years and older, purchasers must show photo ID and retailers must track sales.
Based on the demands of advocates such as Levasseur, this may only be the beginning of new knife control measures in Canada — all troublingly modeled on our long and fruitless attempt at controlling guns.
The province claims its new law will keep big knives out of the hands of young criminals. That seems unlikely. Once the act takes effect, it will still be legal for an 18-year-old to buy an arm-full of machetes and hand them out to fellow gang members. Tougher measures require changes to the federal Criminal Code.
Ottawa is now being pushed in that direction. Coincident with Manitoba’s new law and following a series of horrific knife attacks in Vancouver, B.C. Attorney General Niki Sharma recently wrote to her federal counterpart asking that machetes be declared a “prohibited weapon,” which would amount to a permanent ban. Continue...

Calgary councillors propose pay freeze after recent hike, Gondek to present own motion
https://tnc.news/2025/01/11/calgary-councillors-propose-pay-freeze/
Some Calgary city councillors have proposed a motion to freeze the council’s pay increases at 2024 rates until 2030.
Sonya Sharp will be introducing the motion next Tuesday. She has support from three other councillors — Dan McLean, Andre Chabot, and Terry Wong.
Sharp said that the city council should not be accepting automatic pay increases when Calgarians are struggling with the cost of living.
“Leadership isn’t just about talking about fiscal responsibility – it’s about demonstrating it. This freeze shows we’re serious about aligning council’s actions with the realities Calgarians face every day,” said Sharp.
In fact, there will be a slight reduction in salary for councillors because Sharp is requesting that the pay be scaled back to 2024 rates.
Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek joined the fray, saying she will ask the council to freeze salaries for 2025 on Tuesday. However, Gondek made no mention of the freeze stretching further. Continue...

FDA Mandates Nerve Damage Warnings For 2 RSV Vaccines
https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/fda-mandates-nerve-damage-warnings-2-rsv-vaccines
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ordered two respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine manufacturers to include a potentially paralytic side effect warning related to nerve damage on product labels.
The manufacturers, GSK and Pfizer, manufacturing Arexvy and Abrysvo vaccines respectively, must now include a warning stating a risk of Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) following vaccination, according to a Jan. 7 statement from the agency.
GBS is a rare disorder in which the immune system ends up damaging nerve cells, which leads to weakness in the muscles and potential near-total paralysis, depending on severity.
RSV is a common respiratory virus that infects the throat, nose, and lungs, and typically spreads during fall and winter seasons. Infected people can experience symptoms similar to that of a common cold such as a runny nose, congestion, sneezing, and coughing. Continue...

Gov jobs ballooned four times as much as private sector since pandemic began
https://tnc.news/2025/01/12/gov-jobs-ballooned-four-times-pandemic/
Since the COVID lockdowns started in March 2020, the public sector has ballooned by nearly 20%, while non-government jobs only saw a 5% increase in the same period.
According to a Statistics Canada report on the Canadian job market released on Friday, employment rose by 91,000 or 0.4% in December, and unemployment declined by 0.1% to 6.7%
Among those new jobs, the number of government jobs rose by 40,000 in December and 156,000 since the same time last year. It said the change in jobs was largely due to an increase in educational services, health care and social assistance.
According to the report, employment rose by 17,000 in the educational sector, the second consecutive monthly increase, and by 16,000 in health care and social assistance.
“Over the 12 months of 2024, growth in health care and social assistance, +130,000; +4.8% and educational services, +71,000; +4.7%, have together accounted for nearly half of employment growth across all industries,” the report said.
The same report stated that private sector jobs rose by 27,000 in December and 191,000 more Canadian jobs from the previous year.
Compared to February 2020, however, this marks a 19% increase in government jobs since the start of the pandemic and a 5% increase for the private sector. Continue...

Canada’s premiers set for meeting in Washington, D.C. to discuss Trump tariff threat
https://tnc.news/2025/01/12/canadas-premiers-meeting-in-washington-dc-trump/
Canada’s premiers are set to meet in Washington, D.C. nearly a month after President-elect Trump takes office to discuss the impact of his tariffs on Canadians.
According to a social media post from B.C. Premier David Eby, Canada’s premiers will meet with American politicians on Feb. 12 to discuss the harmful impacts of Trump’s threatened 25% tariffs on all imported Canadian goods.
Trump originally said he would implement the tariffs with an executive order on day one of his administration unless Canada secured its border against illegal immigration and drug smugglers. He’s set to be inaugurated on Jan. 20, 2025.
“Canada’s Premiers will travel to Washington, D.C. on February 12 to meet with Republicans and Democrats about the harm tariffs will cause both sides of the border,” he said in a post on X.
During a press conference on Tuesday, Trump threatened to use “economic force” against Canada in a bid to annex it, a comment many Canadians, including Eby, have taken seriously.
“I am a proud Canadian and British Columbian. We will never sacrifice our identity or independence to any other country,” Eby said in the post. “We will always stand strong against any threat to our people.” Continue...

Mega Thread Of Evidence | Covid Vaccines Cause Turbo Cancers
https://www.truth11.com/mega-thread-of-evidence-covid-vaccines-cause-turbo-cancers/
Multiple doctors and scientists, including Dr. David Rasnick, Dr. Ryan Cole, Dr. Roger Hodkinson, and Scientist Kevin McKernan, say that covid injections cause “turbo cancers” due to immune system suppression.
The injections contain DNA plasmids with the SV40 promoter sequence, which has been associated with oncogenesis and can bind with P53, “the guardian of the genome.”
Doctors and experts report a significant increase in aggressive cancers, often in younger people, with rapid growth to Stage 3 or Stage 4, and link this phenomenon to the covid injections’ degradation of the immune system.
Multiple case reports and studies suggest a potential link between covid injections and an increased risk of cancer, including aggressive and metastatic types. Specific cases reported include colon cancer, breast cancer, skin cancer, gastric cancer, basaloid carcinoma, melanoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia/lymphoblastic lymphoma, among others. Researchers propose that the vaccines may cause immune suppression, leading to accelerated cancer progression and that certain modifications in mRNA vaccines (e.g., 100% N1-methyl-pseudouridine) enhance tumour growth.
Additionally, numerous personal accounts on social media report loved ones and friends developing aggressive cancers, referred to as “turbo cancers,” shortly after receiving covid “vaccines.”
All of the above was described in a “mega thread” posted on Twitter on 30 December by Sense Receptor. The following is a copy of the thread as posted by NZDSOS. Continue...

Trudeau said once again that there was no chance Canada would become the 51st state, an idea that Trump has floated several times in recent weeks.
Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sat down with former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki for an interview on her MSNBC show, “Inside.” The interview comes after weeks of back and forth between the Canadian prime minister and President-elect Donald Trump, who has made it clear that he is none too pleased with the trade deficits being posted between Canada and the United States.

UPDATED: Danielle Smith meets Trump in Mar-a-Lago
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/danielle-smith-visits-trumps-mar-a-lago/61098
'I want to talk to as many members of the incoming administration as I can'
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has met with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, on the cusp of president-elect 's inauguration.
Smith joined Canadian businessman Kevin O'Leary and prominent psychologist Jordan Peterson.
Smith, who plans to attend the inauguration, has been vocal about Trump's threat to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian goods unless border security concerns are remedied.
Some say she has taken on the role of national leader in the absence of Justin Trudeau.
"We had a friendly and constructive conversation during which I emphasized the mutual importance of the U.S. - Canadian energy relationship, and specifically, how hundreds of thousands of American jobs are supported by energy exports from Alberta," said Smith on Twitter.
"I was also able to have similar discussions with several key allies of the incoming administration and was encouraged to hear their support for a strong energy and security relationship with Canada."
Smith recently appeared on American T.V. explaining the case for positive trade relations with the U.S. and her upcoming inauguration attendance.
"Alberta has a $188 billion cross-border trade relationship with the United States," she said in a Fox News broadcast.
"I want to talk to as many members of the incoming administration as I can to make sure the trading partnership stays strong, and know that we're here as a friend and ally, we're here to help."
Smith recently announced Alberta will work with Enbridge, via a working group with the Alberta Petroleum Marketing Commission, to increase oil exports to the U.S.
The initiative could find support with Trump, who has spoke of the U.S. becoming a global energy powerhouse.
“The world needs more Alberta oil and gas, and we need to make sure Alberta is meeting those needs," said Smith.
She has also announced a new program to better protect the province's nearly 300 km border with the U.S. — some say in response to Trump's tariff threat.

SHADOW POWER: How Trudeau's Chief of Staff wields influence while dodging accountability
https://www.westernstandard.news/canadian/shadow-power-how-trudeaus-chief-of-staff-wields-influence-while-dodging-accountability/61034
One figure moves with quiet influence in the wood-panelled corridors of Parliament Hill, where power lies.
It is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Chief of Staff Katie Telford.
Since 2015, Telford has shaped Canada's political landscape while repeatedly sidestepping full accountability for controversial decisions that have cost taxpayers millions and potentially compromised national security.
Consider the carefully crafted testimony Telford delivered on Chinese election interference.
It was a masterclass in strategic omission.
While acknowledging that Trudeau "quite possibly" received briefings about foreign meddling in 2022, she repeatedly hid behind the shield of "national security" constraints.
Telford's testimony left Canadians in the dark about potential threats to their democracy.
Her credibility suffered another blow when CSIS Director David Vigneault publicly contradicted her claims about a security assessment involving a Liberal MP.
But this pattern of obfuscation extends far beyond national security matters. Continue...

U.N. Considering Funding Syrian Militant Group HTS
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/u-n-considering-funding-syrian-militant-group-hts/
The UN is currently debating how to provide aid to the Islamic extremist group Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which has seized control of much of Syria.
Last year, U.S. taxpayers contributed over $10 billion to the UN, and now some of those funds risk being diverted to a terrorist organization actively opposing the U.S.-backed Kurds in their fight against ISIS.
This not only undermines U.S. foreign policy in the region but also directly benefits HTS in its conflict with Kurdish forces.
Moreover, it lends legitimacy to HTS, especially as the Biden administration has removed the bounty on the group’s leader, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani (aka Ahmed al-Sharaa).
The EU has sent representatives to meet with him, seemingly taking the first step toward recognizing him as the official head of state. Continue...

Russia, Iran To Sign 'Comprehensive Strategic Partnership' Treaty This Week
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russia-iran-sign-comprehensive-strategic-partnership-treaty-week
Russia and Iran have unveiled plans to sign a "comprehensive strategic partnership" treaty on Friday when Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian visits Moscow.
The two nations dubbed 'pariahs' by much of the West have seen their cooperation and relations grow in the context of the Ukraine war. "On January 17, Vladimir Putin will hold talks with the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian, who will come to Russia on an official visit," the Kremlin announced Monday.
The much anticipated treaty has long been in the works, since at least last summer, news of which caused President Zelensky to say there's an axis of rogue states conspiring to defeat Ukraine. This has included North Korea as well, which has lost troops helping Moscow defend Kursk region.
As for the treaty to be signed by the week's close, it was previewed as heavily focused on defense and security cooperation. "It will confirm the parties' desire for closer cooperation in the field of defense and interaction in the interests of peace and security at the regional and global levels," Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov had earlier stated.

Ottawa to slam brakes on federal EV subsidies by end of March
https://tnc.news/2025/01/13/ottawa-brakes-federal-ev-subsidies/
The federal Liberal government has announced that its incentives for electric vehicle subsidies will “pause” on Mar. 31, or earlier if the program’s funding is fully exhausted.
With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s prorogation of Parliament, the federal government only has until the end of March before Ottawa runs out of money and has to vote on a supply bill.
The Zero-Emission Vehicles Program offered financial incentives to Canadians purchasing electric vehicles since 2019 and was touted by Transport Canada as a success in a press release.
However, the looming suspension raises questions about the government’s ability to sustain momentum in its push for widespread EV adoption.
Transport Minister Anita Anand touted the iZEV program’s record, noting that over 546,000 zero-emission vehicles have received taxpayer subsidies, contributing to a record zero-emission vehicle market share of 16.5% in the third quarter of 2024. Continue...

Legal challenge against Trudeau government’s vaccine mandates going to trial
https://tnc.news/2025/01/13/legal-challenge-trudeau-governments-vaccine-mandates/
After years of litigation, two men who filed a lawsuit against the federal government challenging the vaccine mandate for travel will get the chance to argue their case before a federal court.
Shawn Rickard, a Canadian permanent resident from Britain for over 30 years and Karl Harrison, a Canadian citizen, will have their lawsuit heard by a federal court after a motion to dismiss their case was shot down.
Rickard and Harrison had previously filed a legal challenge against the Trudeau government’s vaccine travel mandates that was subsumed under another court case filed by People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier and former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford.
The mandates were imposed by the Trudeau government in October 2021, barring unvaccinated Canadians from boarding places, trains, and marine vessels travelling within or outside of Canada.
The travel vaccine mandate prevented an estimated 5.2 million unvaccinated Canadians from freely travelling by air, rail, or boat.
However, the Trudeau government dropped its travel restrictions for unvaccinated Canadians on June 20, 2022 before the group’s case against the government could be heard. Continue...

Spike in terrorism linked to religious and ideological motivations working in parallel: report
https://tnc.news/2025/01/13/spike-in-terrorism-religious-ideological-motivations/
Threats of terrorism have been on the rise in Canada for the past several years and it’s perhaps linked to two major separate streams which appear to be increasing in parallel.
A study released by Insight Threat Intelligence found that terrorism-related charges in Canada have been on the rise since 2007, with a dramatic spike in 2023.
The bulk of the 73 charges during that period involved “religiously motivated” terrorists with links to “jihadist groups” but “over the last four years, there has been an increase in diversity of motivation, with ideologically motivated individuals also being charged with terrorism offences,” it reads.
True North interviewed Canadian Global Affairs Institute counter-terrorism expert John Gilmore to get more insight as to what could be causing the increase in charges.
Gilmore noted that from 2015 onward there was a shift in how things were defined, with government agencies moving focus from “religiously motivated terrorism” to “ideologically motivated terrorism,” which encompassed a broader range of attacks and threats.
Ideologically motivated terrorism includes threats and attacks from both sides of the political spectrum and can involve a variety of motivating factors.
“I would suggest that one of the reasons for that was that in the US there was a renewed focus on what they called right-wing terrorism or what is characterized as domestic terrorism because you had a lot of shootings by lone wolves or self-radicalized individuals,” said Gilmore. “They were ideologically-based, not Jiahdist-based.” Continue...

Ukraine aid critic wins EU state’s presidential election by landslide
https://www.rt.com/news/610784-croatia-president-election-milanovic/
Zoran Milanovic has secured over 74% of the vote in Croatia
Incumbent Croatian president, Zoran Milanovic, known for his critical stance on the EU and NATO and his opposition to Western aid to Ukraine, has secured a second term of office in a landslide election victory.
Milanovic garnered 74.68% of the vote in Sunday's presidential runoff, decisively defeating his rival from the ruling Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), Dragan Primorac, the country’s State Election Commission said on Monday.
Approximately 45% of about 3.5 million registered voters participated in the election, the commission reported.
“It's a plebiscite message from the Croatian people to all those who ought to hear it, and I ask that they listen,” Milanovic stated in his victory speech.
Milanovic has consistently criticized Zagreb’s support for Ukraine, describing the conflict as a NATO proxy war against Russia. Last year, he exercised his presidential authority as head of the country's armed forces to block the deployment of five Croatian officers to the NATO mission in Germany.
He emphasized that he intends to be “an equal participant in matters of foreign policy… In matters of defense and security, I will serve as the Commander-in-Chief—not as an equal, but as the highest-ranking authority—because that is what the Constitution stipulates.” Continue...

Hungary slams Ukrainian ‘attacks on sovereignty’
https://www.rt.com/news/610809-hungary-turk-stream-attack/
Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has called for the TurkStream gas pipeline to be protected
Budapest considers any attempts to sabotage its energy supply as undermining its national sovereignty, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Monday, reacting to reports from Russia that Kiev had tried to disable the TurkStream pipeline with kamikaze drones.
According to the Russian military, Kiev used nine unmanned aircraft to target the Russkaya gas compressor station near the village of Gaikodzor in Russia’s Krasnodar Region last Saturday. The facility pumps natural gas under the Black Sea to Türkiye, some of which then goes to consumers in the EU, including Hungary.
The pipeline “is indispensable for the supply of natural gas” and has been operating reliably for years, Szijjarto stated in a post on Facebook on Monday.
“We expect everyone to respect the safety and operability of this transport route,” he added. Continue...

She argued that "the blanket mandates present significant challenges that deserve consideration."
British Columbia recently reimposed mask mandates on those working in health authority-operated facilities, and while most have complied, some have taken a stand against the policy.
Among those who have fallen into the latter camp is Lindsey, a long-term care facility nurse who just recently began working again after losing her job due to the government's COVID-19-era vaccine mandate.
In a series of posts on X, Lindsey explained that after refusing to don a mask in accordance with the guidelines, she was informed that unless she complied, she would lose her full-time position, be designated a "casual" employee, and be barred from picking up shifts.
In an interview with the Western Standard, Lindsey noted that her employer was "supporting" her decision and wants her back as a full-time employee "as soon as the mask requirement is dropped," but that until then, "their hands are tied."
"Firstly, I want to clarify that I am not anti-mask," she said. "I believe that there are appropriate times and circumstances for masking. For instance, during outbreaks, when infectious residents are present, it is crucial to use personal protective equipment correctly. The same applies to surgical procedures, where masks help protect patients from droplets and shield healthcare providers from potential exposure to bodily fluids." Continue...

David Menzies and Sheila Gunn Reid react to comments from NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, who said Canada should cut off its supply of critical minerals to the US should President-elect Donald Trump follow through on his threat to impose a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods.

Sarah Champion, From Rotherham, is the Third British Labour MP to Break Rank and Demand National Inquiry Into the Muslim Grooming Gangs Scandal
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/sarah-champion-rotherham-is-third-british-labour-mp/
Failing British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has controversially ruled out a National Inquiry into the Grooming Gangs scandal that has targeted countless British children, mostly by Islamic immigrants – but the issue will not go away so easily.
Besides Reform UK and Conservative Party both condemning the move, as well as large sectors of the society, now a trend is starting inside Starmer’s own Labour party in which top party figures and MPs are starting to break rank and publicly demand for the National Inquiry to take place.
Today (13) it arose that the Labour MP representing the ‘grooming hot spot’ of Rotherham has made a U-turn, and is demanding a National Inquiry into the scandal.

TRUMP EFFECT: Hamas Is Prepared to Make Ceasefire Deal with Israel Following Trump’s Threat to “Raise Hell in the Middle East”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/trump-effect-hamas-is-prepared-make-ceasefire-deal/
In a no-holds-barred press conference at Mar-a-Lago following the certification of his 2024 election victory, President-elect Donald Trump issued a stern warning to Hamas, demanding the immediate release of hostages held in the Gaza Strip.
With his signature resolve, Trump made it clear that failure to comply by January 20, his Inauguration Day, would result in severe consequences for the region.
“All hell will break out. If they’re not back by the time I get into office, all hell will break out in the Middle East. It will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. All hell will break out,” Trump warned.
Trump added, “I don’t have to say anymore, but that’s what it is. They should have given them back a long time ago. They should have never taken them. They should have never committed the attack of October 7. People forget that, but there was, and many people were killed.”
Following President Trump’s ultimatum, Hamas officials announced on Monday they are prepared to make a ceasefire deal with Israel.
CNN reported on Monday that sources said US officials believe a ceasefire agreement could very well be announced in the forthcoming last days of President Joe Biden’s time in office.
This was another success story for President Trump before he ever entered office. When President Trump speaks, people listen.
Now, leave it to the radical Biden Administration to blow it all up before the end of the week!

As EU Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen Is Under Legal Scrutiny for ‘Pfizergate’ Contract Scandal, Her Office Is Also Denying a Cover-up of Her Hospitalization With ‘Severe Pneumonia’
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/as-eu-commissioner-von-der-leyen-is-under/
Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, despite being reelected for a second term, is having a rough time lately, both legally and in terms of her own health.
To begin with, she is haunted by the ghost of Pfizergate: a court in Liege, Belgium, is set to review whether von der Leyen has legal immunity against corruption charges related to the procurement of COVID-19 vaccines.
This session is scheduled for the historic day of January 20, 2025, and the Belgium court decided that the case is to proceed as planned, denying von der Leyen’s bid to postpone it – you can read on Gateway Hispanic.
The European Commissioner is facing significant legal scrutiny regarding the mishandling of COVID-19 vaccine contracts, with the General Court of the European Union already ruling that von der Leyen’s Commission was not transparent enough about the Pfizer contracts.
There’s also legal interest in the ‘secret’ text messages exchanged between her and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla during the negotiation of the contracts.
So, as the legal challenges mount concerning the Commissioner’s transparency, potential maladministration, and allegations of secretive negotiations, on top of that, she suddenly became ill and was hospitalized in secrecy.
The European Commission has had to scramble to deny today (13) that covered up the health issues plaguing von der Leyen after it became known that she was hospitalized with severe pneumonia.

According to reports, the Supreme Court justices “sound likely” to uphold the TikTok ban, which is scheduled to go into effect on January 19.
President-elect Donald Trump has asked the Supreme Court to delay the ban, which will begin one day before his inauguration, unless it is sold to a new non-Chinese owner.
TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, has indicated it is not open to a forced sale.

How Trudeau Neglected National Security and Sovereignty
Justin Trudeau’s tenure as Canada’s prime minister has been marked by a mix of lofty rhetoric and lackluster follow-through, but nowhere is this more evident than in the realm of national defense and security. While Trudeau has made some noteworthy pronouncements about Canada’s role in the world, his actual record reveals a profound failure to safeguard Canadian sovereignty and support the Canadian Armed Forces. When it comes to protecting Canada’s strategic interests, Trudeau’s leadership has proven to be among the weakest of any modern prime minister. Continue...

American Airlines Mismanaged Employees' Retirement Funds By Investing In ESG, Court Rules
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/american-airlines-mismanaged-employees-retirement-funds-investing-esg-court-rules
A district court has ruled that American Airlines failed to prioritize the financial interests of its employees’ retirement funds by enabling fund managers to pursue environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investments.
The judgment came as part of a 2023 lawsuit filed against American Airlines and the company’s Employee Benefits Committee. The class action alleges that the defendants violated their duty of loyalty under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, which requires that fiduciaries managing retirement investments must act in the best financial interest of the participants.
Defendants are alleged to have mismanaged their employee’s retirement assets—401(k) plans—when they hired investment managers pursuing ESG policies to handle the funds, especially BlackRock. Continue...

DJI, the world's largest civilian drone manufacturer and a Chinese-owned company, has reportedly announced it will replace its geofencing system with official Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) data for all flight operations in the US. The changes, which took effect on Monday, come just one week before President Trump's inauguration in Washington, D.C, as well as concerns about drones across US cities and hovering near US military installations.

Tether Will Relocate HQ To El Salvador After Securing License
https://www.zerohedge.com/crypto/tether-will-relocate-hq-el-salvador-after-securing-license
Stablecoin issuer Tether announced that it would move the company and its subsidiaries to El Salvador after it had secured an operating license in the Latin American nation.
In a Jan. 13 notice, Tether said it had acquired a license to operate in El Salvador as a digital asset service provider and stablecoin issuer. The company said it planned to relocate its headquarters and subsidiaries to El Salvador due to its “forward-thinking policies, favorable regulatory environment, and [...] growing Bitcoin-savvy community.”
“This decision is a natural progression for Tether as it allows us to build a new home, foster collaboration, and strengthen our focus on emerging markets,” said Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, adding:
“By rooting ourselves [in El Salvador], we are not only aligning with a country that shares our vision in terms of financial freedom, innovation, and resilience but is also reinforcing our commitment to empowering people worldwide through decentralized technologies.”
The move followed reports that Ardoino and Tether’s chief operating officer, Claudia Lagorio, acquired real estate and became naturalized citizens in the Latin American nation in 2024. Cointelegraph reached out to Tether for comment but did not receive a response at the time of publication. Continue...

WEF Elites Unveil Plan To Use Carbon Controls As A Trojan Horse For Global DEI
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/wef-elites-unveil-plan-use-carbon-controls-trojan-horse-global-dei
The underlying strength of economics is that (when approached honestly and with respect to the data) it can give us a relatively accurate measure of progress versus cost. If the rewards outweigh the costs after careful calculation then that economic endeavor will bear fruit. The ability to gauge production, innovation and prosperity with an unbiased eye is essential to true economics.
The problem is that economics is not only a mathematical science, it is also, for lack of a better term, a social science. One has to understand individual psychology and mass psychology. You have to be knowledgeable in the inconsistencies of human emotion and desire as much as you are knowledgeable in the hard realities of supply and demand. Furthermore, not all people that engage in economic study do so for the benefit of humanity.
There is a contingent of financial elitists that seek to use their understanding of the psychological side of economics to socially engineer political outcomes. We’ve heard it said that nuclear science or genetic science offer a power so terrible that they could wipe out civilization if exploited by the wrong hands. I would argue that economic science in the wrong hands outdoes every other competitor because it can be used to enslave humanity forever.
Case in point: What happens when economics is combined with far-left activism and scientific cultism based on fabricated claims? What happens when a group of ultra-wealthy Fabian socialists combine their resources to strangle the free market and manipulate economic outcomes? What do you get when a vast network of international corporations abandon competition and profit for a long term agenda of power and control?
Well, you get insidious programs like ESG and groups like the Council For Inclusive Capitalism. You get direct cooperation between governments and corporations to force a specific way of thinking and living. They present it as philanthropy when it is really a complex form of tyranny. Continue...

Canada Post hikes stamp prices by 25%, citing operational challenges and inflation
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/canada-post-hikes-stamp-prices/
Canada Post has increased postage rates by around 25%, citing inflation and operational challenges.
According to a Monday news release, the price of a single domestic stamp has risen from $1.15 to $1.44. Stamps bought in booklets, coils, or panes now cost $1.24 per stamp, an increase of 25 cents.
“For the last decade, Canada Post has kept regulated letter mail rate increases to a minimum,” reads the release. “Every year, there are fewer letters to deliver to more addresses, which adds significant cost pressures to the Corporation on top of continued inflationary pressures.”
The corporation estimates that the average cost increase due to these rates will be $2.26 annually per Canadian. The average Canadian small business will see costs increase by around $42.17 annually.
Canada Post recorded a financial loss of $748 million in 2023, following a loss of $548 million in 2022. While Canada Post delivered 5.5 billion letters in 2006, it delivered only 2.2 billion in 2023. Continue...

Liberal leadership contestant says French not important to Quebec
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/liberal-leadership-contestant-french-not-important/
Liberal MP Chandra Arya has kicked off his bid for the Liberal party’s leadership in an unconventional fashion.
Chandra seeks to move the Liberal party away from its roots by downplaying the importance of the French language for Quebec, advocating for Palestinian statehood, and condemning the prioritization of diversity, equity, and inclusion in government.
Arya is one of the first Liberal MPs to declare their candidacy for the Liberal leadership, entering the race before potential big-name candidates like Chrystia Freeland, Mark Carney, and François Philippe-Champagne.
So far, Arya has run an unorthodox campaign for a Liberal politician.
In an interview on the CBC’s Power and Politics, Arya was asked about his French speaking abilities, to which Arya simply replied “no.”
“The point is that whether the Quebecers or English Canadians, it’s not the language that matters it’s what is that is delivered to them,” said Arya.
Arya argues that becoming a sovereign republic matters much more to Quebecers than the French language.
“We have English-speaking, French fluent prime ministers for all the time. One of the things that matters to Quebecers are being a sovereign country, a sovereign republic. And which prime minister has ever talked about that?”
Arya promised that if he were to become prime minister, he would move towards cutting Canada’s British ties and ditch the constitutional monarchy in favour of becoming a republic. Continue...

Poilievre vows retaliatory tariffs against U.S. but would rather collaborate
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/poilievre-vows-retaliatory-tariffs-rather-collaborate/
A Conservative government would respond to Donald Trump’s threatened tariffs in kind – but Pierre Poilievre would rather both countries cooperate instead.
In an interview with British Columbia’s CHEK News, Poilievre outlined what he means by putting “Canada first” and, for the first time, vowed to impose tariffs of his own to counter Trump’s proposed economic pressures against Canada.
Trump threatened in November to impose a 25% tariff against Canada on the first day of his administration if it did not secure its border against drug smugglers and illegal immigration into the U.S.
Poilievre pledged to retaliate with tariffs against American goods that are “necessary” to discourage America from “attacking” Canadian industries.
“I’d rather we work together, though, right? Because if we do, we can have a bigger, stronger economy, and I will use the strength from that enhanced trade relationship to build our military, secure our borders, and help America, just like Canada, become safer, richer and more secure,” he said.

Mark Carney claims he’s political “outsider” in Jon Stewart interview
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/mark-carney-claims-hes-political-outsider/
UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance Mark Carney attempted to sell himself as an outsider to both politics and the establishment as he teased the likelihood of a Liberal leadership run during a guest appearance on a U.S. talk show.
Carney appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Monday to discuss the political climate in Canada and the U.S. as well the risks of incoming president Donald Trump’s 25% tariff threat.
Stewart said that the headwinds of the population seem to favouring the Conservatives, suggesting that Carney would be better off to “run” from a Canadian election as opposed to entering it.
“It’s really difficult for a candidate to come in,” said Stewart, who has been “saddled with the policies” of a left-wing government.
Before he could finish his sentence, Carney hinted at the notion that it could work if someone entered the race that was bringing something different to the political landscape.
“A wild hypothetical, let’s say a candidate wasn’t part of the government,” said Carney. “Let’s say the candidate did have a lot of economic experience. Let’s say the candidate did deal with crises. Let’s say the candidate had a plan to deal with the challenges in the here and now.”
Stewart playfully responded by saying, “you sneaky…you’re running as an outsider.”
“I am an outsider,” Carney responded. Continue...

https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/cms-banker-carney-canadas-next-pm/
Mark Carney is expected to launch his Liberal leadership campaign later this week, and did a soft launch on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night. If Carney does indeed enter the race (which it looks like he will) it will be a coronation and he will be the next leader of the party, and by default, our next Prime Minister.
On today’s episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice walks us through Carney’s past roles – central banker, Trudeau Liberal advisor, proud Global elite – to demonstrate that he is not an outsider. Instead, she shows how his socialist, money-printing policies have been disastrous, how he’s very much to blame for our economic collapse, and that it’s possible that he’s equally as arrogant as our current PM.
Later in the show, Candice discusses the other candidates running, including Christy Clark and her weird lies that seem to have sunken her campaign, she discusses the latest with Trump’s tariff threats and the best way to respond, and, for fun, she responds to a very grumpy online critic.

Canada’s healthcare system ranks second last among high-income peers: report
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/canadas-healthcare-system-ranks-second-last/
Canada’s healthcare system continues to score poorly compared to its international peers.
According to a C.D. Howe Institute report authored by Tingting Zhang, Canada ranks ninth out of 10 high-income countries, falling behind the international average for access to care, administrative efficiency, and equity, while ranking last in timeliness. However, for the select few who can access care, Canada has a relatively high quality of care.
“All Canadian provinces and territories fall below the international average for overall healthcare performance, with Newfoundland and Labrador and Nunavut showing the weakest outcomes,” reads the study. “Access to timely care, obtaining after-hours care, and long wait times are nearly universal challenges.”
A previous poll highlighted that almost half of Canadians were avoiding healthcare due to overwhelming wait times, with 11% seeking care abroad to bypass delays.
The C.D. Howe report showcased that Canada ranked last in timeliness. Every province ranked well below the international timeliness average. Almost half of Canadians, 47%, waited two months or longer to see a specialist, and 59% waited two months or longer for elective surgery.
The only country Canada outperformed in overall health system performance was the United States, which took last place. The Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia led the pack in scores.
The study also analyzed each province independent from Canada, which saw Prince Edward Island take first place among the provinces in overall health system performance. In last place, and the only province scoring lower than the United States, was Nunavut. Continue...

Judge reverses suspension against Alberta police officer for speaking at Freedom Convoy rally
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/judge-reverses-suspension-against-alberta-police-officer-for-speaking-at-freedom-convoy-rally/
The suspension without pay for Staff Sergeant Richard Abbott of the Edmonton Police Service was out of line and not at all 'justifiable,' Justice James Nelson of Alberta Court of King’s Bench ruled.
A policeman from Alberta won a decisive court victory after a judge overturned a ruling against him by his superiors that suspended him without pay because he spoke at a Freedom Convoy rally in 2022.
Justice James Nelson of Alberta Court of King’s Bench recently ruled that the punishment for Staff Sergeant Richard Abbott of the Edmonton Police Service (EPS) was out of line and not at all “justifiable.”
“While taking into account the higher standards placed by law on a police officer that can limit the officer’s freedom of expression compared to the freedom enjoyed by other citizens, we are left in my view with factual distinctions that could be drawn from the evidence,” Nelson wrote in his ruling.
The judge also noted that the “facts and evidence” in the case were not clear in justifying the suspension.
Abbott was a 26-year police veteran with a clean record and “no prior disciplinary misconduct.”
His suspension came in 2022 after he gave a videotaped speech at a local Freedom Convoy rally, of which many were being held at the time in solidarity with the truckers who descended upon Ottawa in protest of COVID dictates of all kinds.
Abbott opposed COVID jab mandates and was sympathetic to the peaceful Freedom Convoy movement.
Judge Nelson agreed with Abbott’s statements and overturned his suspension. Continue...

Canadian parents wary of COVID, flu shots for children despite government propaganda: report
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/canadian-parents-wary-of-covid-flu-shots-for-children-despite-government-propaganda-report/
Government research has found that Canadian parents do not plan to inject their children with COVID or flu shots, pointing to the ineffectiveness of the shots and potential side effects.
Canadian parents are remaining wary of COVID and flu shots for children despite ongoing propaganda campaigns.
According to in-house research by the Public Health Agency obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter, many Canadian parents do not plan to inject their children with the experimental COVID shots, pointing to the ineffectiveness of the shots and potential side effects.
“Continued monitoring of parental knowledge and views around Covid-19 and influenza are important to adapt public communication and education accordingly,” the report said.
“Monitoring parental attitudes is essential to predict expected vaccine take-up and guide education and awareness efforts to promote vaccination,” it continued.
In Canada, COVID shots are both approved and encouraged for all children over six months of age, despite the fact that the latest Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 shots for children under 12 were only granted emergency use authorization in the U.S.
The research asked parents if they planned to give their children updated COVID shots, to which only 17 percent said they “definitely will”; 26 percent said they “probably won’t”; and 28 percent said they “definitely won’t.”
Those who planned to refuse the reoccurring shots revealed they were “concerned there was not enough research on the vaccine,” questioned the effectiveness of the shots, mistrusted the government information surrounding COVID shots, or their doctor had never mentioned it. Continue...

Lame Duck Trudeau Leaves Power Vacuum in Canada, Forcing Liberals to Talk Tough to Trump
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/01/13/lame-duck-trudeau-leaves-power-vacuum-in-canada-forcing-liberals-to-talk-tough-to-trump/
Canadian Liberals are scrambling to fill the power vacuum left by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation, using a great deal of tough talk intended to convince voters that the party can stand up to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump in a potential tariff and border security conflict.
Trudeau announced his resignation on January 6, using a maneuver known as “prorogation” to force the legislature out of session so he could remain as a lame-duck “caretaker” prime minister until March.
One of the major reasons Trudeau lost the confidence of the Liberal Party was his struggle to handle the incoming U.S. president. Trudeau was already unpopular with the public for a host of reasons, and his unpopularity dragged his party down in some painful special election losses, but the last straw for many of his Liberal colleagues was the election of Trump.
Trudeau did his best to talk tough in an interview with MSNBC on Sunday, assuring viewers that Canada does not want a trade fight with the Trump administration but is ready to rumble if Trump makes good on his tariff threats. Continue...

Canadian mining group suspends operations in African state
https://www.rt.com/africa/610864-canadian-miner-barrick-gold-suspends-mali-operations/
Barrick says Malian authorities have seized stocks of gold from its sites
Canadian mining corporation Barrick Gold has announced that it will suspend operations in Mali in response to a long-running dispute with the West African country’s military government over alleged unpaid taxes.
The company accuses the Malian authorities of seizing gold stocks from its Loulo-Gounkoto complex, located in the west of the country, and transferring them to a custodial bank, thereby effectively blocking the shipment and sale of the precious metal.
According to sources cited by Reuters on Monday, the government removed around three metric tons of gold worth $245 million from the mining sites and flew them out by helicopter on Saturday.
The world’s second-largest miner has been at odds with Mali since 2023 over a new extraction contract that would give the landlocked state more control over its minerals.
The former French colony is one of Africa’s top gold producers, with large-scale mining operations such as the Loulo and Gounkoto mines, which are 80% owned by Barrick and 20% by the Malian government. However, since taking power in a coup in 2020, the new leadership in Bamako has sought more revenue from the sector to boost state income as the price of the precious metal continues to rise. In 2023, the Sahel state passed a new mining code allowing the government to own up to 30% of any new projects. Continue...

Trudeau to host Cabinet retreat in Quebec on Trump's inauguration day
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/trudeau-to-host-cabinet-retreat-in-quebec-on-trumps-inauguration-day/61176
The retreat is set to take place in the Outaouais region of Quebec.
It has been revealed that Justin Trudeau will host a Cabinet retreat in the Outaouais region of Quebec on the same day Donald Trump is set to be inaugurated the 47th president of the United States.
From January 20 to 21, members of the prime minister's crew will meet to discuss issues facing Canadians, and how the government can strengthen Canada-US relations amid tariff and annexation threats from the soon-to-be leader of the free world.
"Our government is unwaveringly focused on protecting and defending Canadian interests," Trudeau said in a official statement. "With the threat of tariffs from the incoming United States administration, Team Canada will use expanded capabilities to strengthen Canada’s relationship with the US, protect Canadian investment and jobs, and make unequivocally clear the mutually beneficial relationship our two countries share."
According to the government, the goal of the retreat is to ensure that going forward, Cabinet can "build on Canada's strong relationship with its closest ally to advance shared priorities."
"This includes bolstering cross-border trade, reinforcing our supply chains, and creating jobs on both sides of the border," a statement read. "Canada's recent $1.3 billion border security plan — backed by new investments in expanded personnel, cutting-edge technology, and increased law enforcement co-ordination — is a testament to our commitment to the shared security and prosperity of Canadians and Americans alike."
It is unclear whether Trudeau will attend Trump's inauguration before jetting back up to Quebec.

Heritage minister accuses Musk of 'meddling' in Canadian election
https://www.westernstandard.news/news/heritage-minister-accuses-musk-of-meddling-in-canadian-election/61163
The billionaire has been rather critical of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on X, and supportive of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.
Heritage Minister Pascale St-Onge has accused Elon Musk of "meddling" in Canadian politics ahead of the election.
The billionaire has been rather critical of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on X, and supportive of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.
"What we've been witnessing in the past few weeks is a guy, a billionaire that owns a very influential platform, meddling in other countries' elections and politics," St-Onge told CTV News, "and he's doing it in Canada."
She went on to argue that, "we know and all the experts know that with everything happening online on social media, ... we cannot trust these platforms as sources of information."
St-Onge said she viewed policies such as X's "community notes" fact-checking apparatus, which will soon be rolled out at Meta, as "extremely dangerous," adding that, "communication and information is the heart of democracy and of the election process."
The heritage minister also accused Poilievre of "kissing up to Elon Musk."
"I'm worried that Poilievre is saying that he's for sale," she said, "and that he's willing to sell Canada to these tech geeks and willing to destroy our independent news ecosystem."
St-Onge took particular issue with the Conservative leader's promise to defund the CBC.
"It's about talking about killing one of the most important sources of information for Canadians at a time where we know that the information system is controlled by foreign billionaires," she said, "and to me it's very preoccupying to see that [Poilievre] doesn't understand that."
In December, Musk appeared to agree with Bill Ackman, who declared that Poilievre was "extremely impressive" and "should be Canada's next leader."
He has repeatedly talked down to Trudeau, both before and after the soon-to-be-former Liberal leader announced his resignation.

Harper condemns Trump’s rhetoric but blames Trudeau for Canada’s predicament
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/harper-condemns-trumps-rhetoric-blames-trudeau/
The self-professed most pro-American prime minister in Canada’s history, Stephen Harper, has criticized some of the recent statements made by President-elect Donald Trump. Harper also placed part of the blame for strained relations between the neighbouring countries on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
In a recent interview with Gabe Groisman, Harper rebuked some of Trump’s statements.
“I must admit to being shocked by some of the things he said… I have a real problem with some of the things Donald Trump is saying,” said Harper. “Doesn’t sound to me like the pronouncements of somebody who’s a friend, a partner, and an ally — which is what I’ve always thought the United States is for our country.”
However, some of Trump’s concerns hold weight, according to Harper. He said that the southern border is “an enormous problem.”
While Harper described President Joe Biden as a personal friend, he criticized his administration’s “disgraceful” open border policies.
“It was a violation of his fundamental duties to the country,” said Harper. Continue...

The Faulkner Show | City Councillor suspended WITHOUT PAY for being conservative
https://tnc.news/2025/01/14/tfs-city-councillor-suspended-without-pay-conservative/
Pickering city councillor Lisa Robinson has been suspended without pay for a third time now and is also facing the prospect of losing her council allowance because of her work on council and her comments. Before the end of the year, Pickering mayor Kevin Ashe put out a bizarre video in which he warns the city about the dangers posed by councillor Lisa Robinson after random social media users left mean social media comments on city council posts and for Robinson’s appearance on right wing podcasts. All of this is happening because of what Robinson has said but was any of it actually that bad?
This is one of the most bizarre stories happening right now in Ontario. Do city councillors have a right to speak to media and make their own social media posts? Are they responsible for social media comments left by other users? Can mayors subvert the democratic process and kick councillors out of a job?

South Korea — A Trusted Friend and Partner on the Verge of Collapse Under Communist-Controlled South Korean Democrat Party
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/south-korea-trusted-friend-partner-is-verge-collapse/
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has surrendered himself to police forces of unclear jurisdiction and connection with the South Korean Government.
The legacy, corrupt media is often portraying this as a simple, lawful reaction to the “unlawful” Martial Law President Yoon declared in early December.
There is a lot more to the story that is being dismissed or not reported.
A President can declare Martial Law in South Korea under certain conditions. There has been immense, Chinese-funded election malfeasance in South Korea, which has delivered the National Assembly to the Democrat Party.
President Yoon imposed Martial Law to raid the National Election Commission (NEC) in South Korea. The NEC makes the Fulton County Election Commission in Georgia look clean.
President Yoon is in a struggle with the opposition “Democrat Party” of South Korea that is under the control of Chinese Communist sympathizers beginning with their leader Mr. Lee Jae-myung who was convicted of crimes in November, which triggered this string of events because his conviction prevents him from running for the presidency.
So, the Democrat Party is seizing the Presidency without an Election. The Democrat Party of South Korea is taking a lesson from Jack Smith and waging lawfare against President Yoon and throwing in a coup at the same time. This hard ball play to arrest Yoon may be backfiring – Yoon’s Party poll numbers are now surpassing the Democrat Party. Continue...

Bu now, every well-informed person is aware of the fact that the electronic devices that we’ve grown accustomed to are potentially spying on us all the time.
When it comes to people in highly sensitive trades, such as military submariners, it seems to us inconceivable that they’d not be operating taking that into full consideration.
It has now arisen that, in a case of scary negligence, crew members of a French nuclear submarine were logging runs on the fitness app Strava – and may have risked leaking their position and patrol schedule to foreign adversaries such as Russia.
The Strava app allows members to share their sporting activities online, with a map showing the exact location where the user completed the exercise.
Île Longue Naval Base in Brest Harbor in the region of Finistère is home to four nuclear submarines.
Mobile phones are naturally forbidden and stored in lockers at checkpoints.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/just-biden-sec-sues-elon-musk-twitter-stock/
Biden’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk over his 2022 purchase of Twitter.
In October 2022 Elon Musk officially closed the deal to purchase Twitter for $54.20 per share – or about $44 billion.
According to the SEC, Elon Musk allegedly failed to properly disclose his 5% Twitter stock purchase in 2022 in the months leading up to his purchase of the platform.
The SEC claimed because Elon Musk purchased the stock at “artificially low prices,” he underpaid investors by $150 million.
“Musk paid significantly less for the shares of Twitter common stock he purchased between March 25, 2022 and April 1, 2022 than if he had timely disclosed,” the lawsuit said, according to CNN.

In 2016, NBC News secretly colluded with the Washington Post to help Hillary Clinton’s failed presidential campaign by trying to derail Donald Trump by releasing a decade-old video.
Billy Bush was used as a pawn for the failed October Surprise.
Bush joined Tucker Carlson to discuss the legacy media’s endless attacks and the beginning of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Tucker Carlson: You said this was the beginning of Trump derangement syndrome. Did you sense that at NBC?
Billy Bush: Oh, God. Absolutely. I mean, anything. Remember this, over at ABC News, at the same time when Trump became President, they launched a 70… they built a 75-person investigative unit. I know the guy who was head of it, dedicated to anything negative on Trump. Find stuff on him and get him out.
This is not journalism.
This is not news.
It is activism.
When you’re calling journalism, it’s total activism.
By the way, when NBC does the shi**y thing that they did, ABC and CBS don’t call it out. They don’t say, Hey, you’re competing with each other. I would want to pound my competitor. ‘Look what you did. That was dirty’ because all of them would have done it, too, probably. You know what I mean? They all shared that mission.

Biden Removes Communist Cuba’s Designation as State Sponsor of Terrorism in Deal Negotiated by Catholic Church
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/biden-removes-communist-cubas-designation-as-state-sponsor/
Joe Biden is trying to make things right with communist Cuba as he prepares to leave office.
The outgoing president agreed to remove the country’s following negotiations through the Catholic Church, despite the fact that Catholics are heavily persecuted by the communist regime.
“An assessment has been completed and we do not have information that supports Cuba’s designation as being a state sponsor of terrorism,” a senior administration official briefed reporters on Tuesday.
“The Catholic church is significantly advancing an agreement with Cuba to undertake a set of actions that will allow for the humanitarian release of a significant number of political prisoners in Cuba and those who have been detained unjustly,” they added.
Cuba has long been a hub for supporting and harboring terrorist organizations and fugitives, playing a destabilizing role in the region.
The regime continues to shelter leaders of Colombia’s Marxist guerrilla group, the National Liberation Army (ELN), which is responsible for bombings, kidnappings, and violence.
Havana also remains a safe haven for American fugitives, including convicted cop-killer Joanne Chesimard (Assata Shakur), shielding her from justice for decades.
It was first designated as a state sponsor of terrorism in the final days of the first Trump presidency, citing evidence it had “repeatedly providing support for acts of international terrorism in granting safe harbor to terrorists. Continue...

Taibbi: Head Of Infamous "Information Disorder" Commission Promoted At NPR
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/taibbi-head-infamous-information-disorder-commission-promoted-npr
Amid a busy news day Monday, a familiar figure was named Chief Operating Officer of National Public Radio. Ryan Merkley, who directed the Aspen Institute’s Commission on Information Disorder and also appeared in the Twitter Files as Wikimedia’s liaison to “Industry Meetings” with federal law enforcement, was elevated to the job by NPR president/Titania McGrath clone Katherine Maher.
“Throughout his career Ryan has demonstrated a commitment to the public trust, leading organizations that prioritize universal access to the common good,” Maher said. Maher, perhaps best-known for describing the First Amendment as the “number one challenge” that makes it “tricky” to remove content.
Merkley’s name figured in several high-profile efforts to control “disinformation” through aggressive content moderation. In 2021, the Aspen Institute created a Commission on Information Disorder, whose big-name participants included Katie Couric, “Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex,” and DHS official Chris Krebs. Merkley was the Commission’s Director. Continue...

Visualizing All Of Canada's Cancelled Energy Projects
https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/infographic-canadas-cancelled-energy-projects
While Canada’s resource sector was dealt a blow with the cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline’s permit by the United States, Canadian officials are facing another challenge as Michigan’s governor tries to shut down Enbridge’s Line 5 pipeline.
The Line 5 pipeline, which crosses Wisconsin and Michigan, brings oil from Western Canada east, where it is refined in Sarnia, Ont., into products like gasoline, diesel, and home-heating fuel. Shutting down Line 5 would have a major impact on the crude oil supply of Eastern Canada and cost thousands of jobs.
Some activist groups in Minnesota are also hoping to stop Calgary-based Enbridge’s Line 3 project, launching legal challenges and even hoping U.S. President Joe Biden will cancel the project like he did Keystone XL. Line 3, along with the Trans Mountain expansion project and Keystone XL, before the latter’s permit was revoked, are the three major oil pipeline projects currently underway in Canada.
But impediments to Canada’s pipeline and resource projects aren’t limited to the ones crossing the border. In recent years the country has seen a number of cancellations and hold-offs on energy projects located within its own borders. Some were due to market conditions and prioritization decisions by owners. But a considerable number of projects have been cancelled due to cited uncertainty in the regulatory process and environmental policies, as well as indigenous consultation complexities. Continue...

Extremist Islamist conference in Ontario promoting a global caliphate cancelled
https://tnc.news/2025/01/15/extremist-islamist-conference-ontario-caliphate-cancelled/
After weeks of pressure from civil society groups and government officials, a conference promoting the idea of installing a global Islamic caliphate has been cancelled.
Hizb ut Tahrir, a group banned as a terrorist entity in the U.K., and Germany were set to host “The Khiliafah” conference to discuss “obstacles” in the way of establishing a despotic theocratic caliphate globally.
The video promoting the event glorified historical Islamic rule and domination. Other terrorist and extremist groups, such as ISIS, have similarly declared the establishment of a worldwide caliphate as their ultimate goal. Some of the speakers at the event have called on Muslims around the world to overthrow their governments and establish a caliphate.
The event was originally set to be hosted in Mississauga but changed its undisclosed location to Hamilton after Mississauga’s mayor responded to community concerns about the conference.
“Hizb ut Tahrir Canada hereby announces, with regret, the cancellation of the Khilafah Conference 2025. This decision was necessitated by circumstances that were beyond our reasonable control,” the group posted on Facebook following federal government push back.
This comes just hours after Public Safety Canada officials released a statement condemning the conference, stating that the RCMP was monitoring it and that the intelligence community was investigating whether it should be a designated terrorist group in Canada.
“Reports of the upcoming Hizb ut-Tahrir (HuT) conference, scheduled for January 18, 2025, in Hamilton, Ontario are deeply concerning. Hizb ut-Tahrir has a documented history of glorifying violence and promoting antisemitism and extremist ideology,” a joint statement from the minister and associate minister of Public Safety said.

Judge dismisses maskless workplace complaint as ‘frivolous’
https://www.rebelnews.com/judge_dismisses_maskless_workplace_complaint_as_frivolous
The Court ruled that Nicolas Juzda’s fears of exposure did not constitute a legitimate workplace danger under the law.
Justice Benoit Duchesne dismissed a case from an Elections Canada manager who claimed lifting mask mandates in 2023 created unsafe working conditions, marking a decisive end to pandemic-era debates over workplace safety policies.
The case involved Nicolas Juzda, Elections Canada’s chief of field programs, who argued that returning to an unmasked office environment violated his rights under the Canada Labour Code. Juzda claimed the lack of mandatory masking and reliance on voluntary measures created unsafe conditions at the agency’s Gatineau, Quebec, headquarters.
According to a report published by Blacklock's Wednesday:
“Covid-19 is a disease that...poses significant risks including death,” Juzda stated in his complaint, adding that handwashing and cleaning were inadequate precautions. However, Justice Duchesne deemed the concerns baseless.
“The applicant’s concern...was based on his assessment that people returning to work might contract Covid-19,” wrote Duchesne.
The Court ruled that Juzda’s fears of exposure did not constitute a legitimate workplace danger under the law. Continue...

Canada to buy next fleet of submarines from US to offset trade deficit: report
https://thepostmillennial.com/canada-to-buy-next-fleet-of-submarines-from-us-to-offset-trade-deficit-report
"[Trump] has a negotiating style which involves positioning himself in the best way he can for discussions."
Canadian officials said Monday that the country will be buying more submarines from the United States in an effort to offset the trade deficit the US has with its northern neighbors. The move is also an effort to prevent Trump from implementing tariffs on the goods sold in America from Canada.
In an interview with the Associated Press, Canada's Ambassador to Washington Kirsten Hillman said, “[Trump] has a negotiating style which involves positioning himself in the best way he can for discussions. I think that is what this is."
Trump has threatened to impose a 25 percent tariff on goods coming into the United States from Canada unless it fulfills certain obligations such as shutting down the flow of drugs and illegal immigration going into the United States. In addition to this, Trump has slammed the trade deficit with Canada as an issue that needs to be resolved.
“We are happy to source what we can from the United States. And we have some big military procurements coming up for example, replacing our entire submarine fleet,” Hillman added. “Maybe those are some purchases that can happen from the US”
70 percent of all military arms bought by Canada are through the United States, which includes 88 F-35 fighter jets. Alberta's Premier Danielle Smith told reporters on Monday that narrowing the gap in trade between Canada and the United States is a better choice than having to deal with the proposed tariff. The message comes after Smith went to Mar-a-Lago over the weekend to see the president-elect.
The US has a trade deficit with Canada at around $75 billion and Hillman noted that many of the exports from Canada are for energy. “Adding 25% tariffs to those products will raise the price for Americans almost immediately,” Hillman added. “And at a time when the cost of living is challenging, when food prices are high, it seems like the wrong direction to go in.”
Although since Trump has threatened to impose the tariff, Canada has also picked up its plan to enforce the border, something that the incoming Trump administration has been seeking from America's neighbors to the north.
