Canada’s Fast March to Totalitarianism
Trudeau Demands Life In Prison For Speech Crimes:
To protect children from sexual exploitation, Canada must pass the Online Harms Act, says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government. “I am the parent of two young boys,” said Justice Minister Arif Virani. “I will do whatever I can to ensure their digital world is as safe as the neighborhood we live in. Children are vulnerable online. They need to be protected from online sexual exploitation, hate, and cyberbullying.”
But Virani’s bill is totally unnecessary to protect children. Its real goal is to allow judges to sentence adults to prison for life for things they’ve said and for up to a year for crimes they haven’t committed but that the government fears they might commit in the future.
As such, Trudeau and Virani’s Online Harms Act (Bill C-63) is the most shocking of all the totalitarian, illiberal, and anti-Enlightenment pieces of legislation that have been introduced in the Western world in decades.

Is Woke Canada Ripe to be Invaded?
One wonders if, every night, Juthin and Chrystia sit in a healing circle with their Lieberal sycophants and sing Kumbaya. Maybe that will protect the No Longer Great White North. The actions of Lieberals surely won’t:
The Royal Canadian Air Force announced earlier this month that it will retire its fleet of pilot training jets and put the program on hiatus.
So ends a proud tradition of pilot training that during the Second World War saw Canada train more than 130,000 Allied aircrew, earning it the epithet “the aerodrome of democracy” from then U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt.

Laura Kavanaugh Should Be Prosecuted for 1st Amendment Violations
Laura Kavanaugh is a Democrat apparatchik who somehow squirmed her way into becoming the FDNY Commissioner. She now wants to persecute anyone who dares disagree with her fellow evil Democrat sisters. Viva Frei has thoughts. Read the comments on her most recent Twitter post.
Harmeet Dhillon has some legal thoughts for all FDNY Firefighters:
It’s unclear what the “policy” is that the firefighters are alleged to have violated, or even that attending award ceremonies as backdrop for partisan hacks like Letitia James is a job duty, but there are lawyers standing by to redress any violations of the 1st. Amendment here. https://t.co/z1ZmJE3Jdu

Trudeau: Hear No Evil, See No Evil
Interesting times in Canada’s devolution:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau demonstrates wilful blindness of the profound impact of mortgage fraud on Canadians. Mortgage fraud is a major contributor to Canada’s current housing affordability crisis. Regrettably, as reported by The Bureau on March 1, 2024, $65,000 was transferred in June 2016 after a LPC 2016 fundraiser to the Prime Minister’s Papineau Federal Liberal Association, from over 40 Vancouver-area donors. Four of those donations reportedly came from directors of Tiger Arms.

Where Did the Men Go?
In a recent post, Laura Rosen Cohen ponders a modern mystery:
Speaking of evil. On Wednesday, Mark posted this excellent essay “Red Shoes in the Sunset“. It got me thinking of the predominance of “trans men” doing bad things; to women, to girls and to society via public policy. As I commented in the comment section, I love men, and I’m very pro-men, but it does seem to me like we in the Western world are being led/bullied by some of the most mentally ill, sociopathic men on planet Earth. The “trans”, i.e “Not Men” are the absolute worst of them. Could this be a direct result of the feminization of society? Did women just start to take over too much of the world, so these aggressive, sick men just figured that if they “identify” as women, they can go about their business-acting perversely, raping women in prisons, slicing the breasts of girls (some of the most ‘successful’ trans surgeons are trans Not Women themselves), removing the penises of boys, making military policy, smashing up women in sports-and just generally behaving in a sociopathic manner toward girls and women with impunity-with societal applause?

Some Uncomfortable Truths from Randy Hillier
Interesting hearings are occurring south of the border:
Canadian Randy Hillier served in Ontario’s parliament for 15 years and was the first member to publicly oppose his government’s response to COVID. Like Canada’s citizens, Hillier was targeted by the government for doing so, and argues we are at the tip of a slippery slope with this. In this part of his testimony, he shares how Ontario’s leadership told him they made the decision to continually coverup the damage of the COVID policies because they felt the political consequences would be too severe if they admitted their mistakes.
Will Canadians ever wake up to the fact that discussions like these are the ones that Trudeau wishes to criminalize?!? Asking for a few million friends.

Trudeau vs. the Prosperity of Canadians
Justin Trudeau has really wrecked Canada. So much overspending in such a little time has severely damaged the fortunes from coast to coast:
Canada’s economic productivity has trailed the U.S. for decades. This isn’t news and has numerous possible causes. What is particularly troubling for all Canadians, though, is that the gap is getting wider.
According to the latest data from Statistics Canada, which was released last week, Canada’s labour productivity—that is, how much stuff each hour of work produces on average—fell for the fourth consecutive quarter. As a result, Canadian productivity is now about 2 percent lower at the beginning of 2023 than it was one year earlier. Worse, this has reversed several years of gains. We’re now back to mid-2017 levels.
The Damage Done by Woke Ideology
In one of his brilliant books, Thomas Sowell explained how Stage One Thinking often leads to major problems. One of the top reviews of this book was written by Jason Cohen. Here’s a portion of it:
Sowell’s main thesis is that political decision-makers, which include both politicians, administrative agencies, and large government bureaucracies, often are rewarded for what he calls “stage one” thinking. In other words, because a politician’s main objective is to get re-elected, policies which are popular and appear to, or do, have short-term benefits are often pursued without regard to the policy’s long-term consequences. Ultimately, the politician will not be rewarded for the benefits that accrue in 10 or 20 years from the superior policy, but may be voted out of office for his unpopular stance.
A recent case in point can be found in Victoria, BC: Suspected gang member believed to be recruiting near schools: Victoria police chief:
A suspected gang member believed to be recruiting in local schools was recently arrested by Victoria police, Chief Del Manak told the Greater Victoria School Board on Monday.
“This is just one person of many who we have observed, and we continue to work on targeting these activities.”
Manak’s comments came as he renewed his call for reinstatement of the school-liaison officer program that previously brought police to district schools, saying he is ready to commit officers to the effort.
The board voted unanimously last year to cut the liaison program, citing concern for Black and Indigenous students who might not feel comfortable with a police presence.

Prince of the Evil Globalists
Yuval Harari is infected with TDS and doesn’t like that Donald Trump may be returning to power in America. It’s rather astounding that he can imply that re-electing Trump will bring more wars when quite the opposite is true. After all, it’s under the reign of his BFF Biden that endless wars have broken out. Are people really so stupid to be buying what this cretin is selling?
Much more on Harari can be seen here.

Your Moral and Intellectual Superiors
Jeffrey A. Tucker has recently published a stinging rebuke of the WEF cretins and their supporters who have been stuck on stupid for years:
More and more, it’s obvious what a disaster this was. And yet no one has apologized. Hardly anyone has admitted error. The big shots who wrecked the world are still in power.
The rest of us are left holding the bag, and paying very high repair bills for cars that are non-optimal for driving from one town to another and back again in the cold weather that was supposed to be gone by now had the “climate change” prophets been correct. They turn out to be as correct as those who promised us that we would no longer need “fossil fuels” and that the magic inoculation would protect everyone from a killer virus.
What astonishing illusions were born of this nutty and destructive period. At some point, not even corporate CEOs will be tricked by the experts.
