    We still don’t have a public inquiry into China’s interference in our democracy despite cooperation from the opposition parties. That story isn’t really on anyone’s radar as the country talks about the PM’s personal issues. http://apple.news/AF-lOBircTwSdgx9ygw_-3w We have a government claiming...

    Here’s something different. Digital Taxation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxation_of_digital_goods While the OECD has agreed on a common approach to tax digital companies, no treaty has been implemented yet to enforce it. Consequently, Canada has proposed to enact its own digital service tax...

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    Five months after the federal budget abandoned plans to balance Canada’s books by 2027, new data from the country’s budgetary watchdog suggest a return to balance might not happen until the next decade. Released late last month, supplementary data provided alongside Parliamentary Budget Officer...

    “I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind ” ― John G...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Justin Trudeau owes the public more details about his separation from his wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, but there is no need for him to disclose that information right now — his family should be given time to navigate a difficult transition. And until further details are made public, critics...

    CRTC (Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission) & Bill C-18

    Meta, the parent company of social media platforms Facebook and Instagram, announced that it would begin the process of blocking all news content from its Canadian users starting Tuesday. The decision is the climax of a public battle between Ottawa and the tech giant over the Online News Act...

    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    New Democrat Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party faces resistance to including countries other than China in the terms of reference for a public inquiry on foreign interference. House leaders from the main federal parties have been meeting over the summer in an attempt to set the terms and...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    It’s important to separate the personal from the political. Criticizing Trudeau’s leadership and policies, as I have done many times, is fair game. Anything beyond these boundaries, in what is essentially a private family matter, should be viewed as conjecture, or worse. Which isn’t to say that...

    And they begin. I even waited for someone else to post the first one… OTTAWA, CANADA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the separation from his wife of 18 years Tuesday, shocking millions of Canadians who reportedly had no clue the effeminate leader had been married this whole time...

    ….Or this, as an example to debate. It was reported several weeks ago that parents and staff are pressuring the Toronto District School Board to stop allowing parents to opt their children out of drag queen events. The argument put forward is no longer that it should be permissible to have drag...

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    I was using it as an example to debate (as opposed to a definition) on this topic. Here is a different one as an example: Residents living on John A. Macdonald Road got an opportunity to voice their concerns about the street's upcoming name change Tuesday. A handful of residents attended the...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Justin Trudeau may have broken promises in the past but it is absolutely guaranteed that his latest pledge will be shattered to smithereens in very short order. “I won’t be stirring up anger,” the prime minister said this week. Considering his track record, Trudeau’s statement was as...

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    Here’s a different one (I think) with a different spin: An activist University of British Columbia professor is under fire for claiming young children should be exposed to adult genitals — to prepare them for seeing naked trans people. Journalism professor Katja Thieme made the comments on...

    Is that relevant? Just starved for actual Canadian Political News is all. Meta & FaceBook cut Canada off (& I get it due to Bill C-18). I get my major feeds through Apple though, but I’ve noticed the difference with Google this morning. Anyway, the Trudeaus. They’ve been on the outs for...
