Emergencies Act Court Challenge by the Canadian Constitution Foundation

As you may already know, Christine Van Geyn, Litigation Coordinator for the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF), took the federal government to court over their use of the Emergencies Act to end the Trucker Protest in Ottawa earlier this year. While Justin Trudeau and his Liberal government claimed they had to do it, most saw this as a purely political act as well as a … [Read more...]

Is Jagmeet Singh the Best Scam Artist in Ottawa?

Is Jagmeet Singh the Best-Paid Scam Artist in Ottawa?

NDP leader Jagmeet Singh has, arguably, the best job in Canadian politics. He's the leader of a national, if tiny, federal political party. He gets paid (I cannot bring myself to say 'earns') a $185,800 salary as a Member of Parliament, with an additional $62,900 party leader bump. For the non-mathlete's among us, that's a cool $248,700 per year. And that's before the … [Read more...]

Elections Canada Releases Report on the 44th General Election

On January 31st, Elections Canada released their initial report about the 2021 federal election. You can be forgiven for not noticing their news release. The only mainstream news outlet to carry the report was Blacklock's Reporter, who ran the story under the headline, "Over 200,000 Ballots Not Counted".

Joel Lightbound - A Rare Example of Political Courage

I watched Liberal MP Joël Lightbound's entire 56-minute press conference yesterday in stunned silence. His speech was the bravest political act I've witnessed in decades. He was measured, thoughtful and sincere - the polar opposite of his party's leader. He called out Justin Trudeau for his abusive name-calling and crass political opportunism, then demanded it must stop; … [Read more...]

Erin O'Toole: You Just Don't Understand How Brilliant I Am!

A prime tenet of military leadership is Extreme Ownership, made famous by Navy Seals Jocko Willink and Leif Babin in their book of the same name. The concept is simple.

Largest Poll Ever Conducted Overwhelmingly Opposes Vaccine Mandates

We've all seen our share of polls telling us how vile unvaccinated humans are, how they should be locked up, fined for non-compliance with COVID-19 health measures and banned from medical treatment altogether.

Liberals Launch Mandatory Vaccination Trial Balloon to Capitalize on Hatred and Division

The day I read that Austria made COVID vaccinations mandatory for every citizen I knew it was only a matter of time before Justin Trudeau would find such a dictatorial order too juicy to pass up.

Is Justin Trudeau projecting his issues onto others when he calls Unvaccinated Canadians Racist, Misogynist?

Justin Trudeau made headlines this past week, first, for a video clip conservatives edited to give the false impression Trudeau said the opposite of what he actually said and second, for his comments to a Quebec television station where he called anyone who disagreed with his opinion on vaccinations racists and misogynists.
