Armstrong Economics- The EU and Canada Collaborate on Digital IDs

The danger here is obvious. Mutual recognition means a unified framework. They’re building a foundation to establish a GLOBAL digital ID. Once these systems talk to one another, you have created the architecture for a worldwide database controlled by the political elite. This is precisely what the EU has been pushing with its Digital Services Act and the infamous “digital wallet” proposal. Now they are exporting it, just as they exported their disastrous ideas on Net Zero and financial regulation. Canada, collapsing economically and politically, is following Brussels into the abyss.

Great Success!

Global- Extortion suspects have all claimed refugee status, Canada’s border agency says

The foreign nationals were identified by B.C.’s Extortion Task Force, but once the Canada Border Services Agency began investigating them, all claimed to be refugees. As a result, deportations of the 14 suspects have been put on hold until the Immigration and Refugee Board decides whether they have legitimate cases for asylum.

National Post: Saskatchewan doesn’t have a surgeon who can complete the surgery. She has waited years to see a specialist

A Canadian woman who got approved for a medically assisted death because of a years-long wait to receive surgery for her chronically painful condition may finally get treated. American conservative commentator Glenn Beck has offered to pay for her to have surgery in the United States.

“If there is any surgeon in America who can do this, I’ll pay for this patient to come down here for treatment. THIS is the reality of “compassionate” progressive healthcare,” Beck said in a post on X after Jolene Van Alstine’s story spread across social media. “Canada must END this insanity and Americans can NEVER let it spread here.” […]

Her husband said he doesn’t want her to go through with her request for MAID, which has been scheduled for Jan. 7…

National Disunity

While some aboriginal communities welcome the prospect of roads and mines in the so-called Ring of Fire zone in Ontario, some clearly don’t. They prefer to live in a “pristine” wilderness that for some reason is not pristine enough to provide clean drinking water for thirty years.

The province has released a Ring of Fire ad that uses Ford’s slogan from the 2025 election: “Protect Ontario” and makes a sales pitch on development. “What about protect Neskantaga?” Marcus Moonias says. “I’m so mad about it.”

“I almost threw my television at the wall,” he says about the commercial.

Bigger dreams are starting to enter Mamakwa’s mind. He thinks one day a First Nation political party could hold the balance of power in Ottawa, like a Bloc Québécois of the north.

Dispatches from the Maple Gulag Truck Stop

Bankruptcies abound, yet the Mark Carney’s job numbers show a huge increase in transportation and warehousing?  I am starting to think the job numbers are prepared by the same people who said Mark Carney would win by a landslide in Alberta.  Trucking News reports on bankruptcies in Canada and Freightwaves reports on US bankruptcies, so any news of growth in the industry is highly suspicious.  Several months ago Gord Magill reported on the financial chinanery in the trucking industry

Sonar truck freight index shows an 11% decrease this year after several years of decreases.  Yet somehow we are supposed to believe the economy is adding jobs when trucking is failing, construction jobs are down and housing sales are flat?  Something stinks in the state of Denmark.

With the Bloc Quebecois now falling into line with its ideological soulmates on the west coast, how much life is left in the Memorandum Of Understanding?

Blanchet offered his help to B.C. last week — seeing that the MOU was negotiated without the province’s input and offers to relax key climate policies such as the tanker ban — and Eby’s team and his quickly came into contact to coordinate a virtual meeting.

Blanchet said they quickly agreed that, on certain subjects, they were on the same page.

Keir Starmer’s Britain

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and the sun never sets on the Censorship Industrial-Complex Empire.

Very early into the COVID-19 pandemic, ZeroHedge suggested that a little-known Chinese lab in Wuhan might know something about the novel coronavirus sweeping the globe. As a result, and as you know, we were subject to an intense demonetization / deplatforming campaign that included getting kicked off of Twitter, PayPal, Facebook and other platforms, dropped by our advertisers, and targeted by MSM hit pieces which colluded with foreign ‘watchdogs’ to inflict maximum damage.

These same groups also targeted outlets including The Federalist and Breitbart over various reporting, which suffered similar fates.

Now, thanks to a new book by investigative journalist Paul Holden that builds on reporting by Matt Taibbi, Paul Thacker and others, we learn that the origin of these campaigns, launched years before the pandemic, was none other than UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer’s political machine, which began targeting left-wing outlets speaking critically of Starmer such as The Canary, and then went after conservative outlets in America – just in time for the 2020 US election.

Yet another example of what happens when a bunch of politicians scream “emergency” and a gullible John Q. Public largely falls for it. This reminds me of a Seinfeld episode where Kramer tries to explain to Jerry what happens when a company makes a bad investment decision: “They just write it off, Jerry!”

Ontario wrote off more than one billion items of personal protective equipment at a cost of $1.4 billion since 2021 and is now burning expired products, the province’s auditor general found.

The province signed long-term contracts for PPE between October 2020 and April 2021 that locked it into buying 188 million surgical masks annually. Yet it only distributed 39 million of those masks last year, or 21 per cent.

Hardly a week has passed since the memorandum of understanding with Alberta, and already the Libs are laying the groundwork for endless “unavoidable” delays. At this rate, I don’t know why Guilbeault found it necessary to quit caucus at all.

On his way into a cabinet meeting Tuesday morning, the former minister of Crown-Indigenous relations told reporters he sees a difficult road ahead for any pipeline project.

“If everyone thought Thursday was difficult, that was probably the easiest day in the life of that pipeline,” Miller said.
