Canadians watching Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election might be tempted to find comfort in their certainty that such foreign interference could never happen here.
Except it already has. And while the Russian government at least denies interfering in American political affairs, the perpetrators who meddled in Canadian elections have publicly trumpeted their success in devising and executing their plan aimed at helping elect who they wanted.
And now they’ve come for agriculture, while even purportedly conservative provincial governments remain asleep at the wheel.
Global rationing. Sounds wonderful. Double plus good. Now where did I put my Malthusian belt?
All you have to do is figure out how many millions have gone from Tides to the Sask Party. How many millions have Wall and Moe accepted directly?
Pretty clear by their actions that they have long since been bought and paid for by the same interests that bought and paid for Ottawa.
And yet, people keep insisting that “if you don’t vote for OUR guy Moe/Scheer/Sask Party/CPoC/ it will guarantee that Trudeau/NDP/Liberals will get reelected”.
Beginning to be clear that the party loyalists on here have also cashed some checks from Soros and Tides. Just like Trudeau has, and the NDP, and the CPoC, and the Greens, and the Liberals, …
Oh pshaw! Collusion is only a bad thing if it’s done by conservative politicians, even if it’s only imaginary collusion.
Collusion with the radical evironazis is a GOOD thing.[/sarc]
Except the mainstream media actually take that position.
As for the National Geographic article, they sound like a bunch of Paul Ehrlichs, and just about as accurate. Hopefully the world will ignore them.
We do not live in a free country. Democracy died in Canada on Oct 19, 2015.
My guess is this is the tip of the iceberg
Sorry Ward but your date is off.
We (Canaduh) died a long time ago, the disease has simply metastasized to the point where it can’t be hidden any longer.
“And now they’ve come for agriculture”
No problem. We just need more farmers with a ‘can do’ attitude.
Fishery, forestry, mining, oil & gas …. Now agriculture will take a beating. There can be no prosperity in Canada for average normal Canadians. Wake up Canadians!
The people who write reports about global food supply, eating less meat, etc are mentally retarded. They approach the problem from the answer backward (how do we eat less meat). They then concoct a story line to fit their conclusion.
Much of the land where cattle graze is not suitable for “fruits and vegetables”. Almost all of the fruits and vegetables eaten by Canadians are imported. Roughly one third of the food we buy goes rotten before we eat it. Most Americans are heavily over-weight. We have a crisis of too much cheap (poor quality) food.
In Ethiopia (like many other countries where masses of people occasionally starve to death) the very poorest of the poor are subsistence farmers on land that is very sensitive to drought. When the drought comes their crops are wiped out and they migrate to the city to beg. In the city the politicians ride around in black Mercedes “S” class sedans with the air conditioning turned on and the windows rolled up. The very poor walk in between the cars begging for money at the stop lights. This has nothing to do with food production as most Ethiopians will tell you. That country is a bread-basket.
Those that bray the loudest about a subject are often the most ignorant of the facts and/or are complete hypocrites. Example of the former – most anti-meat activists do not know that on the cdn prairies livestock graze on land not suitable for crop production. Example of the latter – Gore, Branson, DeCaprio, Trudeau, IPCC event attendees, etc. all choose to have a massive carbon footprint while lecturing the rest of us about CO2 rationing. They’re like the tv evangelist with a mistress or an anti-gay crusader with a “wide stance”.
An amiable separation needs to start before Ottawa destroys prairie agriculture like they’re destroying the prairie energy industry. Sell it to the rest of Canada as a win-win. We get to free ourselves of their shackles and Canada instantly achieves its IPCC climate change committment. As a bonus, separation relieves what must be central Canada’s profound guilt and shame over taking “dirty” AL-SASK oil and agriculture money. /s
If our media was worth their weight in salt then Vivian Krause abd her research would be as well known as Lavscam. They’re ignoring it because if the disdain they feel for the oil industry, prairie energy workers and AL-SASK people. I suspect they’re cheering on the Trudeau government’s policies.
While working on the 6k acre hay ranch owned by (college Ag. graduate) brothers in Oregon … we ran about 300 head of cattle. They DID NOT run on the arable farmland! They ran on the edge of swampland on the fringe of the ranch. Perhaps if every little eco-psychotic city kid (like me) … were forced to work on a REAL farm/ranch for a few months … they might actually LEARN something of the REAL world.
One wonders how independent these so-called scientists are (they’re not), when you see what happens to voluntary vegans over the course of time, 5+ years, not the trendy 1-2 year types that feel so good about themselves.
Long term vegans are malnourished, prematurely aged, and suffer from a variety of maladies, intestinal mostly.
All can be cured by generous doses of red meat.
Check out YT for lots of examples.
The UN hates successful western societies, sees us as needing to be torn down, undeserving. They see our civil society and wealth needing to be stripped away and given to the third world, cuz socialism/equality, because shut up!
They don’t have the power to do it militarily, so derision/opinion are their weapons, and largely it’s working.
The self-doubt, self loathing, and guilt indoctrinated … like water on the brain … to generations of Western schoolchildren has made us easy pickins for such nonsensical notions. Yep, we’re being conquered non-violently by indoctrination and invasion.
Will Notley come clean on how much money and support the NDP has received from Tides Foundation and Lead Now?
Bad joke of the day.
You thought your vote mattered. Ha Ha Ha. PowerCorp, has controlled all Prime Ministers since Pierre Trudeau. It is well documented and many many articles about who Really Runs Canada.
The company has been criticized for its links with Canadian politics,[11] and specifically for its commitment to the defense of federalism in Quebec. Indeed, several former Canadian prime ministers have worked on staff. A brief summary of the connections between Power Corp. and those with political power in Canada is below.
Former Prime Minister of Canada, Paul Martin, was hired in the 1960s to work for Paul Desmarais, Sr. by Maurice Strong. Martin became President of Canada Steamship Lines, a subsidiary of Power Corp., and in 1981 Desmarais sold the company to Martin and a partner. Martin went on to make his personal fortune as an owner of CSL.
Former Prime Minister of Canada Jean Chrétien sat on the board of Power Corp. subsidiary Consolidated Bathurst in the late 1980s before he became the leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. Chrétien’s daughter France is married to the son of Paul Desmarais, Sr., André. Also Chrétien’s chief of staff Eddie Goldenberg worked in the past for Power Corp.
Former Prime Minister of Canada, the late Pierre Trudeau, served in the mid-1990s on Power Corp.’s international advisory board. Trudeau’s assistant Ted Johnson also worked for Power Corp. During the Trudeau administration Michael Pitfield held a variety of positions in government but during his time in the private sector he was at one time a Vice-Chairman of Power Corp. and is currently listed as a Director Emeritus.
Former Prime Minister of Canada Brian Mulroney also has a relationship with Power Corporation. Mulroney’s friend Ian MacDonald described Desmarais as “Mulroney’s mentor in the business world,” and it is believed that Mulroney has done legal work for Power Corp. since the end of his term as Prime Minister. Additionally, former Mulroney Minister of Transport Don Mazankowski is currently Power Corp.’s company director.
Former Premiers of Ontario William Davis and John Robarts of the Progressive Conservatives have both sat on Power Corp.’s national advisory board. John Rae, the brother of former NDP Premier Bob Rae, currently serves as Power Corp.’s Executive Vice President. Former Premier of Quebec Premier Daniel Johnson, Jr. worked for Power Corp. from 1973 to 1981 and in the last three years of this term was a Vice-President in the company.
Former member of the Liberal Party of Canada Maurice Strong became President of Power Corp. by his mid-thirties. He had a role in the creation of the Canadian International Development Agency and in 1976 he was appointed to run Petro-Canada. He later worked for the United Nations. Power Corp.’s international advisory board has featured individuals such as former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, former oil minister of Saudi Arabia Sheikh Ahmed Zaki Yamani, former head of the US Federal Reserve Board Paul Volcker, and the previously mentioned former Prime Minister of Canada Pierre Trudeau.
The former Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec’s President and CEO Henri-Paul Rousseau became the vice-chairman of the company and a member of the board of directors of Power Corporation.
“Except it already has”
How many know about this? It didn’t just happen yesterday.
And how many are angry, not just that it’s happening, but that they’re just finding out about it now, AFTER 10 YEARS!?
Canadians either don’t care, or they’re at best ambivalent. That is a cultural problem and that needs to change in a big way, and soon. It’s depressing how people can be swayed by a famous name and cute dimples, with nary a thought as to leadership credentials, and for whom the phrase ‘legal weed’ gets the tick mark, the country be damned.
I’ll believe there’s hope for Canada when I see a lot of people getting angry.
“””Canadians watching Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election might be tempted to find comfort in their certainty that such foreign interference could never happen here.”””
like onkel Jo said: If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
