  5. Generations of Canadians were able to save and buy their first home.

    But home ownership has now become out of reach for many because of Big Government.

    Big Government offers to help—if you vote for it.

    Don’t be fooled.

    I hope ‘shared equity’ doesn’t mean the government gets 10% of the sell price when people sell there homes for more money in the future. That is a scam.

    All I can say about this is you better read the fine print before jumping into bed with
    @Bill_Morneau
    and
    @JustinTrudeau

    1. I predict that Turdeau and Moroneau will introduce a wealth tax. So if your assets, including your home, are worth more than say $500k then you’re going to pay 1% per year. If over $1 million then 2% per year, and going to 3% for anything over $10 million.

          2. Locally I ended up with this: a cheap property, worth about $5000, forest, near a major highway and a village, couple of hectares. The taxer wants $200 a year. That’s not quite only one percent, but four. And we must enjoy it in our socialism.

            Be so glad and proud of Canada.

          3. ….Not quite one percent “but four”
            Do explain “four” please.

            And you must be in a very uninhabitable cold place with no services. Do clarify, if you will.

          4. Sorry for linguistics. It is a piece of forest in Finland. It is not worth much.
            And 200 / 5000 is 4%, I guess. Per year.

            We got it down to about $100 after a complaint. But the problem stays, owning some forest is basically a crime.

        2. “That would be theft.”

          Yes. What is government but the biggest band of robbers in the land, offering a promise (which it can’t fulfill) to suppress all other robbers if you accede to only their robbery?

      2. Canadians are already one of the most overtaxed people in the Universe. Canadian Families already pay more in taxes than they are allowed to keep for the necessities of life, Food, Clothing and Shelter. Even a homeless man living in a cardboard box that panhandles for a living will pay tax when he spends the money.
        Chained to the Oars of the Slave Ship Canada, chained and soon to be gagged with your own socks when your Elite Rulers start censoring all Internet Freedom of Speech.

      4. Joe, I doubt Trudeau and Morneau would enact what has long been an NDP wet dream. The last NDP bunch we had in the ’90’s decided to look into it and they were immediately jumped on by everyone and dropped it like the hot potato it was.
        A wealth tax would hit hardest on the people who back the Liberal Party including Morneau’s wife and family,Power Corp., Bombardier, irving,Beaudoin, and all the rest of the cabal that backs the LPC or the CPC depending on what color tie they prefer that day.

        It would be much easier to simply raise the GST a couple of percent, plus add to the carbon tax as that would only affect us peasants,and we are powerless.

        1. Don, You make some valid points and I was once of that opinion. However, I think Turdeau is not a ‘classic’ liberal, he is actually to the left of the NDP.

          With a large group of voters who don’t remember the Soviet era, wealth taxes are looking increasingly attractive to younger voters. I think Turdeau may go down this path.

    2. So team Sockmonkey wants to create a market that gives 10% ownership of property to the government.

      Well, the best argument that I can come up with that hits home to liberals is this one.

      The liberals won’t be in power for ever, do you want a conservative government to have that power too?

  6. Sask. to adopt day against Islamophobia

    Sask. to adopt day against Islamophobia

    Saskatchewan Justice Minister Don Morgan met with Mubarik Syed (right) at the Baitur Rahmat Mosque in Saskatoon on March 24, 2019. (Don Morgan Twitter)

    The Saskatchewan government says it’s promoting inclusion and acceptance by adopting a day against Islamophobia, set to take effect on Jan. 29 next year.

    “It’s being called for by the National Council of Canadian Muslims. It’s being done to reflect on what happened in the Quebec mosque two years ago,” Justice Minister Don Morgan said.

    On Jan. 29, 2017, a man shot and killed six Muslims in a mosque in Quebec City.

    The announcement, made by Morgan on Twitter on Friday, is all the more important in the wake of the recent Christchurch, New Zealand mosque shootings, he said.

    “People are talking about it now and I think we need to show support for Muslims. And we need to stand up against any kind of racism,” Morgan said.

    He added that the province’s diversity has only grown since his party took office in 2007: “We have supported over 108,000 new Canadians coming in. Many of them are from Muslim countries. These people pay taxes and they’re some of the greatest citizens we have.”

    The justice minister also said that the new day could be used to spread messages of anti-racism.

    Either way, he said residents ought to recognize the contributions of their Muslim neighbours.

    L- The Legislature has fallen. No, actually it surrendered. Tribalist societies settled differences of political ideas/ideologies by mortal combat in war. Western Civilization, inspired by Christianity, gradually came to adopt the idea of free political speech, open debate. So the bad ideas could die instead of people. “Hate the sin, but love the sinner.” The era of peaceful transitions of power, of responsible government, of Constitutional self-government became a beacon to individual human liberty.

    Marxism and Islamism, being newer and older versions of tribalism, see free political speech/writing (the means to develop, order and test = critical thought) to be blasphemy, the most dangerous of threat to all totalitarian collectivist ideologies. Thus needing to be outlawed.

    *(Notez-bien that phrase of the Golden Rule, once so common is never heard in either the MSM, nor in politics. Christian-phobia replaced it, expounded widely by Cult. Marxists/Islamic Supremacists alike.)
    ———————————————————————————————————————————-
    “Islamophobia is not defined in the M-103 Motion and with good reason. The Islamists, however, absolutely need to advance the concept of Islamophobia and the M-103 Parliamentary Motion. Their belief systems and practices are so alien to Western civilization that they could never defend them in public debates. ” – Submission: The Danger of Political Islam to Canada. -Thomas Quiggan

    1. So does that mean on that day we should oppose; gays, abortion, women leaving their hair uncovered, and all say “may peace and blessings be upon him”, as we celebrate submission to god?
      🙁 🙁

      1. Good questions. Also, are clitorectomies included as part of publik health care on this day?

    2. Been thinking about this one for a while and I’m trying to formulate a statement.
      What I have so far is this.

      Do we really want legislation that outlaws fear of anything?
      How can any law effectively restrict, or eliminate a feeling?
      If this is even possible, how exactly would this new power of the state be able to discern between dislike and disbelief? The point being is that we removed the Lord’s Day act a number of years ago because it imposed a belief and therefore was deemed a violation of freedom of belief.
      If these questions cannot be fully answered would that not constitute grounds for an individual or groups of individuals to have feelings of apprehension or a fear?
      We currently have laws that make it a criminal offense to council an assault, to conspiracy, and unlawful assembly, these laws where in existence prior to the “charter”.
      The protections being sought by the “well meaning” seem to fall under the category of fashion and not for long term. That also gives credence to the presumption that this has not been thought through to all possible outcomes but rather there has only been consideration for one outcome.
      Perhaps, at the very least, the followers of the fight against “Islamophobia” should explain what that goal is.

      1. “If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
        if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may
        come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” Winston Churchill

        1. That Winston Churchill quote is profound. I’d recommend people put it on a sticky note and post it where they can read it frequently, until they know it by heart.

          Many of our political leaders, claiming the best of intentions(?), are dragging us, the upcoming generation more so, into a future civil war e.i. as in France. All this because they don’t have the courage to confront Cult Marxism’s latest variant of class conflict, that of identity politics.
          The Islamic Republic of Iran was established by an alliance between Marxists and Islamists. Hence, why so many try to emulate it.

          After the revolution, the Marxists were slaughtered, but that doesn’t deter them repeating it here.

          1. its worse than that Larry, the political ‘leaders’ ARE the cult marxists.
            where do we go from there??
            a loooong protracted fight with innumerable casualties and no guarantee of victory.
            and a battle that never ceases.

            then the TURDoo shows up in the PMO.
            now what?

    3. I think the Chicoms will eventually win over the Moslem death cult.
      Western democracies are the battleground.

    4. Here I will recognize the Moslem Contribution. 400 million Indians butchered in the 15th century, men women and children, here you can read from aggregated global news outlets of the 24/7/365 butchery, beheadings, acid attacks, burning alive, bombings, stonings, knifings, throwing queers off buildings, and general mayhem against the Infidels that now celebrate their Handiwork. http://www.thereligionofpeace.com Raise a glass of camel urine to the sons of the desert pedophile mohammed. Piss Be Upon Him. All these Western Political Leaders like in Sask. and Trudeau etc should have to drink camel piss with their Moslem Cultist Friends. Someone should take them a cup of warm camel piss to celebrate Moslem Day on the CBC. Me I will stick with my Scotch, and Rye.

    1. It is spring.

      Caught myself humming a Chet Baker version of ‘It could happen to you’.
      Lotsa good spring tunes.

    1. “Woman died after 11-hour ER wait at New Brunswick hospital”

      Not as bad as the dead Indian guy who spent 48 hours in emergency in a Winnipeg hospital without being discovered. That must be a record. She should consider herself lucky.

  11. Dictator Justin burns jet fuel to Toronto today. At least in Toronto he will be met by adoring crowds.

    1. He can draw a crowd with his own MP’s, Toronto is a safe haven. Happy to see the media are putting the tough questions to him, exposing him for the lame brain he is.
      They are hiding something that would wipe them out, why else are they going nuts to keep key people from telling their side of the matter? It’s a complete shutdown at every turn, somehow we have to get it out, last I checked we are a democracy.

  12. Is that Deep Purple on Top of the Pops? My goodness, I am a child in time 🙂

    1. I liked that song but I had to scroll past the video to just listen to the music because with the bright colors, the camera bouncing like that and at my age it’s good to rule out the risks for having a stroke.

    1. Bwahahahaha. Yes, 2 degrees and a 10 foot sea level rise over a century will be a disaster.

      Read up a little on the Younger Dryas and get back to us.

  15. Where are Canada’s Yellow Vests? The censor’s and the Propagandists in the State controlled media do not want folks thinking about or talking about Liberty and Freedom.
    Meanwhile the French Yellow Vests against all odds struggle on against their Globalist Elite Masters. The Yellow Vests have had enough with Open Borders and High Taxes. The sheep have turned in the chute to fight.

  16. Through Breitbart. This is priceless. No need to present proof. Just bullshit from Schiff:

    >“Undoubtedly there is collusion,” Schiff said in an interview this week, after Attorney General William P. Barr submitted a four-page letter to Congress summarizing key aspects of Mueller’s report. “We will continue to investigate the counterintelligence issues.

  17. I have a few lifelong friends in Ontario who are staunch dyed in the wool Liberals. Over the years I have unsuccessfully tried to open their eyes. They believe everything that the ‘Red’ Star and the CBC tell them. The last time I tried to explain that the Liberal/Green/NDP carbon tax was going to be a unmitigated boon dogle I was told in no uncertain terms that the carbon tax was going to punish the big wasteful consumers. I tried vainly to explain that wouldn’t happen as the big corporations would only pass on their extra costs to the little guy, average Joe Taxpayer. No, No they explained the government would return money to the taxpayer, yada, yada, yada! Well, as Gomer would say, Golly Gee, look what is on the front page this morning.

    https://ottawasun.com/news/local-news/enbridge-gas-seeks-as-much-as-11-per-cent-price-increase-in-response-to-federal-carbon-tax/wcm/4c7f547d-b29d-4461-9929-50b4de8fdfbf

    As I and a number of other commentators have expressed here before the Liberal/Green/NDP carbon tax is going to increase the cost of business right across the board and if Joe Taxpayer can’t work that out then he deserves everything that he gets! Unfortunately the rest of us that have a basic understanding of finances and business are also about to receive it in the neck, or wherever. But hey we’re Canadians we’ll save the planet. I like the family numbers in the article, 2.6 persons, that is absolutely amazing!

    1. And explain to your Liberal friends that energy consumption and CO2 production does not go down in the presence of a carbon tax. People don’t suddenly get the urge to quit heating their homes at 40 below because the cost goes up. They do not get the urge to quit driving to work nor do they get the urge to quit trucking in groceries. They pay up and keep voting Liberal.

      1. If enough people are shocked by the price increases, I do not think they will keep voting Liberal. I believe getting rid of the Carbon tax is a good issue for Scheer.

    1. Woah — that is amazing. Also interesting that he targets Obama when he could have targetted Hillary. Could mean Hillary is planning to run again and is lining up her ducks.

    1. Why doesn’t someone clone 100 wild white turkeys if they think they are something special?

    2. Jeez I love turkey hunting. Hope the obeah mann doesn’t sick his ‘followers’ on me…..

      A ‘white’ turkey? Probably a domestic bird that left the farm. Very good eating.

  21. Oh Noooo! Trudeau’s favourite country China is threatening us. They issued a statement that Canada must correct its recent mistakes. In other words we must bow down to our commie Chinese masters. I guess they forgot about the Korean war. Canadians sort of kicked their ass at that time.

  22. NZ ANON HERE… is is obvious to me here in nz that ARDERN is positioning the nz government and nz public… comey is here now in the queenstown area.. he is making sure all preparations are in place… the prince is also on his way here…. THEY ARE PLANNING TO FLEE HERE TO THERE BUNKERS AND HOMES….

    ARDERN WILL BREAK EXTRADITION TREATY WITH THE US…. she will do this on the basis of trumps treatment of muslims or some other lame excuse of the like…….it is alot more obvious what is going on from a perspective over here….

    WATCH AND SEE WHO ELSE quietly is making there way to NEW ZEALAND

  23. Clare Bronfman faints in Nxivm hearing when asked if she hired Michael Avenatti
    Seagram’s heiress Clare Bronfman collapsed in court Wednesday following a discussion with the judge about whether embattled lawyer Michael Avenatti had joined her defense team. Bronfman was in Brooklyn federal court for a hearing in the Nxivm sex-cult racketeering case when Judge Nicholas Garaufis said he’d been told “that she had an additional attorney who was negotiating with the government.” “Did she retain Mr. Avenatti to represent her in this case, yes or no?” Garaufis asked Donna Newman, one of Bronfman’s lawyers.

    The question came just two days after Avenatti was busted in Manhattan on charges he tried to extort more than $20 million with the help of a co-conspirator, identified by several news outlets as celebrity lawyer Mark Geragos, who Bronfman hired late last month. Rather than answer, Newman requested a sidebar with the judge, and Bronfman joined more than a half-dozen lawyers for a private, 10-minute discussion next to Garaufis’ bench. On her way back, Bronfman — whose face appeared yellowish — stumbled and fell forward, but broke her fall by planting her hands on the defense table. One of her lawyers grabbed her and helped her to a chair, where she drank some water while courtroom personnel summoned an ambulance. A short time later, EMTs appeared with a stretcher, and Bronfman climbed on and was wheeled into a nearby conference room.

    Nxivm leader Keith Raniere was taken to a holding cell, but Bronfman’s other co-defendants — including “Smallville” actress Allison Mack — weren’t present for the hearing. About 20 minutes later, Bronfman walked back into the courtroom, where Newman told the judge, “Her skin has not come back to color. And they recommend she go to the hospital.” Geragos also said, “She did black out, probably for 35 seconds to a minute.”

    Prosecutor Mark Lesko then told Garaufis that he’d met with Avenatti and Geragos last week to discuss the case, prompting the judge to scold Bronfman’s lawyers. “There is no privilege associated with retention of counsel … I control and run this case!” he yelled. Garaufis ordered everyone back to court on Thursday to settle the issue of Avenatti’s involvement.

    On his way out of the courtroom, Geragos tried to duck reporters’ questions about whether he’s Avenatti’s alleged co-conspirator, saying that under Department of Justice policy, “that’s not something they disclose.” Asked if he was cooperating with the feds, Geragos mumbled, “No.”
