Lawmakers in Alberta, the largely rural Canadian province situated above Montana, have recently rejected Canadian authoritarianism headed by WEF puppet Justin Trudeau — the open admirer of Chinese-style communism who recently called public protests against his iron-fisted rule “troublesome.”PM Justin Trudeau at a hearing today: “Using protests to demand changes to public policy is something that I think is worrisome” pic.twitter.com/rtKERsGnM6— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) November 25, 2022Via The Guardian:Alberta has passed a controversial “sovereignty act” that could allow the province to ignore federal laws, setting the stage for a combative relationship with the Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, and tense...

Let this serve as a warning to the pro-abortion conservatives: compromising on innocent life opens Pandora’s Box and unleashes murder. From a piece published at The National Post just five days ago and authored by Tristin Hopper:Just as Ottawa publicly acknowledges that its assisted suicide regime might have gone too far, critics have highlighted the existence of a little-known medical assistance in dying children’s activity book that was funded by the Canadian government.We’ve seen dystopian stories of who exactly Trudeau’s government has targeted with their euthanasia program — those suffering from hearing loss, the poor, etc. — but now, children...

On Dec. 23, hundreds will gather to hear from two dozen “distinguished scholars and presenters” from the Muslim world — who are actually radical Islamists — as part of the 2022 “Reviving the Islamic Spirit” conference at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The annual Islamic conference has become one of North America’s largest Islamic gatherings and the largest Islamic conference in Canada. According to Sam Westrop, director of Islamist Watch (a project of Middle East Forum), two-thirds of the 24 listed speakers have a history of promoting extremism. “The Toronto conference contains an impressive array of radicals from a variety...

Authorities said Tuesday that eight teenage girls in Canada have been charged with the murder of a homeless man after allegedly stabbing him multiple times over what police believe was a bottle of alcohol. The 59-year-old victim, who began living in Toronto’s shelter system in September, was allegedly “swarmed” by the girls just after midnight Sunday in downtown Toronto, The Associated Press reported. He was then transported to a local hospital where he died of his injuries, the police report states. “I’ve been in policing for almost 35 years and you think you’ve seen it all,” Detective Sgt. Terry Browne...

Germany Has Provided The Means To Quantify The Human Cost Of The Experimental Vaccination Program ... Most sane people believe that the burden of proving safety should lie on the party conducting a questionable action, rather than their victim. For example, if a criminal shot someone, the prosecution would not be required to prove that the victim’s sudden death after the gunshot wound was not just a spontaneous coincidence, a result of extreme stress from the situation, or due to a pre-existing medical condition. Unfortunately, the pharmaceutical industry has been able to establish a special type of privilege within the...

A group of scholars at Concordia University in Montreal have dedicated themselves to “Decolonizing Light.” The effort is not about banning flashlights, but rather advancing other ways of knowing about light, science and physics. The group’s tagline is “Tracing and countering colonialism in contemporary physics.” The effort, funded by the Canadian government, seeks both to explore “ways and approaches to decolonize science, such as revitalizing and restoring Indigenous knowledges” and to develop “a culture of critical reflection and investigation of the relation of science and colonialism,” according to the project’s website. Led by Tanja Tajmel, a special equity, diversity and...

While we wait for an official inquiry into the possible correlation between the COVID vaccine and sudden death syndrome, a more pressing COVID-related probe was recently taken on by a group of Canadians whose research linked vaccine hesitancy with a high likelihood of — are you ready? — traffic accidents.Research studies are fine, but making a statistical correlation between COVID vaccination and car accidents is about as convincing to the sane as blaming Amtrak derailments on people with toenail fungus or oil spills on tinnitus. What next? Vaccine status will dictate who gets a driver's license? Yup.Published this month in...

Twitter CEO Elon Musk put Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on notice over possible censorship today. Musk has been extraordinarily transparent and accessible since taking over Twitter and has faced enormous amounts of blowback. But a Twitter whistleblower recently came forward and detailed how bad it was before Elon took over (this is a separate report and not the Twitter Suppression Files Musk released last week), so all his critics should be thanking him for securing such a vital platform. ..... Andrew Lawton Tweet, Elon Musk Tweet “In 2020, Twitter had security incidents serious enough they had to be reported...

During the last three years, the Canadian government has been printing lots of money and hiring lots of employees. The number of government hires has been more than those in the private sector. We also now have illegal Chinese police stations in our major cities and the hint (God forbid!) that the Chinese Communist Party was interfering in our last national election. I am shocked! Canada also had a week of martial law against truckers’ COVID protests. Then, during drawn-out hearings, it would appear that, from the Prime Minister down, no one in the higher echelons of government knew what...

Nearly one million people have so far signed a petition to expel Iran’s ambassadors from the G7 countries in protest to the heavy crackdown on demonstrators. The campaign initiated by the founding members of “Iranians for Justice and Human Rights” called on the foreign ministers of the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Japan, Germany, France, and Italy to immediately designate the ambassadors or other representatives of the Islamic Republic in their countries

Vancouver’s Sir Matthew Begbie Elementary School has a new name. It’s now called wək̓ʷan̓əs tə syaqʷəm, which in English means “the sun rising over the horizon.” The name is written in the Musqueam language hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓, which uses the North American phonetic alphabet instead of the Latin alphabet used for English. It was selected in collaboration with the Musqueam language and culture department in recognition of Vancouver’s Hastings Sunrise neighbourhood where the school is located, according to a news release Friday from the Vancouver school board. As for the pronunciation of the new school name, the Musqueam Nation prefers not to...

A six-year-old girl who was a member of the Richmond Raven U7 girls hockey team from Richmond, British Columbia, died suddenly last month after suffering from a massive stroke.

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D.-N.Y., and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R.-Ky., have struck a deal to include the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), according to Axios. If the deal holds, it will move this essential piece of legislation to President Joe Biden’s desk. The NDAA must pass by year’s end to fund America’s military. The JCPA would allow news organizations to band together to negotiate fair fees from online platforms, such as Facebook and Google, who derive ad revenue from the hard work of newsrooms — mostly small, local, community-rooted...

New Zealand has long been in the running for the most draconian COVID-19 lockdown policy under WEF minion Jacinda Ardern, edged out perhaps in its brutality only by Canada, likewise led by WEF errand boy Justin Trudeau.The Kiwi nation recently threatened to remove a child from his parents’ custody on the grounds that they don’t want him infused with mRNA blood.Via the Guardian:New Zealand’s health service has made a court application over the guardianship of a four-month-old baby whose parents are refusing to allow his life-saving heart surgery to go ahead unless non-vaccinated blood is used…Te Whatu Ora filed papers...

A paraplegic former member of the Canadian military shocked MPs on Thursday by testifying that the Department of Veterans Affairs offered her, in writing, the opportunity for a medically assisted death — and even offered to provide the equipment. Retired corporal Christine Gauthier, who competed for Canada at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympics and the Invictus Games that same year, spoke before the House of Commons veterans committee and agreed to provide a copy of the letter. “With respect to me, I have a letter in my file, because I had to face that as well,” said Gauthier, referring...

The UN General Assembly this week passed a resolution to characterize the founding of the modern state of Israel in 1948 as a “catastrophe,” in what has been heralded as a major victory for pro-Palestinian activists. The word “Nakba,” which means catastrophe or disaster in Arabic, was also a term coined by the Palestinians to commemorate the Jewish state’s founding. The UN resolution acknowledges the Palestinian version of the events that led to Israel’s creation, and calls for the “commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the Nakba,” with a “high-level event” at the global body on May 15th, 2023. May...

Top China hawks aren't sold on Canadian company Lithium Americas' move to distance itself from top Chinese investor.. A Canadian company hopes to use Biden administration loans to open the largest lithium mine in North America. But first, it must convince government officials and prospective partners that it's adequately decoupled from its top shareholder: a Chinese enterprise led by known Chinese Communist Party members. Lithium Americas—whose largest shareholder is Chinese mineral giant Ganfeng Lithium—earlier this month announced its intention to split the company into two separate entities, a move that comes as it works to obtain a Biden administration loan...

Canada: A Gruesome, Terrifying Culture of DeathCanada used to be a serious country and a fine place to live and raise a family. Canadians fought valiantly in both World Wars, manned peacekeeping missions and have welcomed refugees, including my own grandparents, from war-torn lands with open arms and warm hearts. Its high taxes have been the foundational stone of a generous social welfare system, a universal socialized medical system, relatively good public schools and public universities among other social programs. As a G7 nation, it has long held a place at the table of the world’s most formidable countries.That country...
