The Trudeau government lost control of the immigration system by encouraging an explosion of the temporary immigration streams. Team Carney is resorting to fudging its immigration books by FIBBING! Today, there are 2.8 million non-permanent residents in Canada, a number that has barely fallen since the peak of two years ago. Even the most naïve and idiotic Liberal supporters should be able to understand this description of the facts! theglobeandmail.com/business…

Jesse Kline: Remember, remember the fifth of November: the day Prime Minister Mark Carney turned Canada’s finances to ember - Guy Fawkes Day! Carney is continuing the Liberal tradition of throwing money at problems they themselves created. The cost of groceries is kept artificially high by the government’s refusal to do away with supply management. The CBC will receive an extra $300 million over two years to tell us how awesome the Liberals are and how evil Israel is. Canada’s national museums will get $46.3 million over four years, and $11.5 million a year after that, to preach their woke version of history to youngsters. Over $32 million for a taxpayer-funded Kindle competitor. $20 million over four years, and $5 million a year ongoing, to supports publishers, even if they’re producing works that few people have any interest in reading. To artists: $0 in taxes up to $45,000 of “artistic earnings.” Meanwhile, the small businesses that power our economy and are suffering in the face of U.S. tariffs did not see the broad-based tax relief they asked for.

Mark Carney shares the high immigration policies of his closest friends and allies, many of whom now occupy senior positions in his administration. Mark Wiseman, a close friend of Mark Carney and now Canada’s US Ambassador. Mark Wiseman co-founded the Century Initiative, a Canadian advocacy group that aims to grow Canada's population to 100 million by the year 2100. Dominic Barton shares a powerful professional relationship with Mark Carney. He has been appointed Chair of the Board of Directors for Invest Canada. Barton is a prominent advocate for high-immigration and large-scale population growth in Canada. When you invite the migrants of the world, you end up with an avalanche of false refugee claims, bad actors gaming the system to stall deportations and Ottawa spending nearly $1 billion a year to provide gold-plated health plans to tens of thousands of people who shouldn’t even be here.

What a shambles! The federal government’s plan to allow 200,000 temporary residents to become permanent residents by the end of next year is targeted at clearing backlogs of people who fled unrest in Ukraine and Hong Kong, the prime minister said Friday. The government has always maintained that it expects most of those people to return home after the war. Carney just said half of those spots would be considered on a humanitarian basis. nationalpost.com/news/thousa…

Lorne Doerkson: To the business owner: “I am begging you to stay. Grow it here. We are going to make it worth your while, I promise you that.” We will: Cut red tape like it’s never been cut before. Set a 120-day approval framework for major projects. Back mining, forestry and the infrastructure that gets goods to market. Give businesses a tax credit for hiring young workers.

A very important day for the people of British Columbia. Choose wisely.

Few deny the residential school tragedy. We will never forget. Sadly, those were not the only children who suffered. At the turn of the century, Canada’s child and infant mortality rates were among the highest in the Western world. In 1900, nearly 1-in-5 Canadian babies (187 per 1,000 live births) died before their first birthday, and roughly one-third to one-half of all children did not survive to age five. Common childhood illnesses that are easily preventable today were fatal due to a lack of vaccines and antibiotics (which didn't arrive at scale until the late 1930s). This scourge affected all children. Can we also remember the trauma suffered by more than 100,000 British children, aged between 8 and 16 years, who were brought to Canada to work as domestics and farm labourers. These British Home Children were taken from their families in the UK and exported to Canada. Remember when boys as young as 8 to 12 years old worked in BC and Canadian collieries through the 19th and early 20th centuries?

Mark Carney's mantra. (Together with "from coast to coast to coast.😅) teapaw.org/ryangerritsen/status/2…

Great choice! Kelsey Pringle is fighting for a Central Vancouver Island where no family has to wait for life-saving care because of where they live. conservativebc.ca/candidate/…

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed in a New York Times interview that his government carefully examined the possibility of a U.S.-led military invasion. 😉😆

343 firefighters died in the 9/11 terror attack. More than 400 additional firefighters have died in the years since from illnesses linked to toxic dust and smoke exposure at Ground Zero.

I hate boycotts and tariffs, mostly because I have firsthand knowledge of the damage those cause. It only serves politicians and activists, to the detriment of ordinary farmers, businesses and consumers who rarely have any say. For the record: I prefer Canadian wine and spirits. BC Mushrooms is the best. But I love fruit from both Okanagan and Yakima fruit farms. Wisconsin’s sausages and cheese are the best! And I prefer US Bick’s pickles. I am NOT going to be part of Mark Carney’s and Donald Trump’s silly trade war, caused by THEIR inflated egos.

Sometimes I hate watching the news. Catastrophic flash floods on August 26, 2026, have killed at least 95 peopleand left hundreds missing along the Nepal-China border. Preliminary reports indicate that an earthquake triggered a massive landslide and avalanche, blocking a river and causing a sudden, devastating surge of water down the Bhote Koshi and Bhotekoshi Riversystem youtube.com/watch?v=AYYjSsUb…

Mark Carney continues to re-announce projects and promises from 7 years ago!Like his icebreaker announcement in Quebec, because of the by-election in Chicoutimi–Le Fjord July 2019: The federal government announced it would procure six new program icebreakers for the Canadian Coast Guard under the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS) to replace aging medium and heavy icebreakers. It also launched a competitive process to add Chantier Davie as a third strategic partner shipyard. Design Phase (2024): Ottawa awarded Davie a $19.6-million contract to begin initial design work on the six Polar Class 3 program icebreakers. navalnews.com/naval-news/201…
