    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    On that note, the amalgamation of polls is out: Somehow…after this week, Trudeau ignores his party’s request for in person caucus, days of non-answers to media & his own party & Canadians as a whole…the Liberal/NDP’s go up marginally? Really? Weirdness. Complete weirdness. Oh well…

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Is it similar to Hamas, Gazan’s, & Palestinians as far as a difference goes? Asking because I’m curious…some can be others or not, etc…but not all are the others, but all of some are or something?

    France Elections

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Did they though? Really? Or is it like the other “ceasefire agreements” they’ve agreed to (?) where American (not Israel, but supposedly on behalf of Israel) proposes something, then Qatar & Egypt change that and propose something else entirely, then Hamas changes that and agrees to something...

    Refugee/Migrant Crisis

    Last month alone, Ottawa permitted 99,000 newcomers. As a bonus, housing starts have slowed, too, which means the Liberals are cramming the country with extra bodies when there are neither enough houses or jobs to accommodate them. StatsCan estimates that in order just to keep even with the...

    UK General Election to be on 4th July

    It’s not quite a French revolution underway, with elections that could put the “far” right in control of the country that prides itself on equality, liberty and brotherhood. But with Marine Le Pen’s National Rally leading ahead of this Sunday's vote, France is facing a generational political...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    We’re going to get above room temperature again. Pretty excited about that. Only happened a handful of times this year so far. Very weird. Very humid too. Rain storms almost daily. Crops are all short (not enough heat), and water laying in the fields in lots of places.

    Pro-Palestine Anti-Israel College Campus Protests

    The illegal occupation was over because it was, in fact, illegal. My former law partner, Justice Markus Koehnen, made all of the usual sounds about freedom of speech and the Charter of Rights in his 98-page Ontario Superior Court ruling in support of the injunction sought by the university. But...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    I can say for Israelis, many of them are amused and baffled when they hear that there are people in Canada who call Israel a “white settler colonial state.” It comes as a surprise to descendants of Holocaust refugees. It comes as a surprise to Jews of Ethiopian descent and of Iraqi and Tunisian...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    It’s a difficult time, nine months after Hamas started this horrible war and we’re seeing as time goes on a very effective campaign to drive a wedge between Israel and its allies around the free world, including Canada. People are forgetting how this war started, forgetting the fact we still...

    UK General Election to be on 4th July

    Here’s a weird one. It seems in most news stories there’s political positions consistent with Left, Left of Center, Center, & FAR Right…like for example: “Some luxury boutiques along the Champs Elysees boulevard, including the Louis Vuitton store, barricaded windows and Darmanin said he was...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    Instead of flipping pancakes at a Stampede breakfast hosted by Chahal (MP George Chahal, who’s call for an urgent caucus meeting may have factored into Trudeau’s decision not to attend) on the opening weekend of the festival, as he did in 2023, the prime minister is choosing instead to attend an...

    West imposes tariffs on Chinese cars because it can no longer compete

    It would be nice if it was at least for a domestic Canadian company…but they’re not, not in this case anyway. It would be nice if it was at least to a North American company in NAFTA YMCA-Whatever it’s called now but…not in this case again.

    West imposes tariffs on Chinese cars because it can no longer compete

    With America being our largest, and only physically connected trading partner, we’re aware that America has tariffs. Trudeau, on behalf of Canadians everywhere, with no say by Canadians…has recently gifted tens of billions of dollars & tax breaks to automotive manufacturers to make EV...
