Sun- The hidden cost of carbon taxes in Canada
On April 1, the carbon tax will be set at $65 per metric tonne. We are slowly marching towards a carbon tax of $170 per metric tonne, by 2030, which is more than double what it is today. Yet so far, not one study has looked at how the carbon tax will be impacting food affordability in Canada. Not one.
Freudian slip.
Governor General Mary Simon had an RCAF flight crew log nearly 3,000 kilometres so she could attend a six-minute ceremony, records show. Simon earlier said it was “up to all of us to act responsibly” to fight climate change: “How we do things is just as important as what we do.”

The Spectator- How Justin Trudeau’s government was compromised by the CCP
People actually voted these Liberal MPs into office. She can’t be influenced by the Chinese, because she’s white and Dutch. Meanwhile Dear Leader has appointed former governor general David Johnston to investigate. Expect the loyal bought and paid for media to drop the story now. In a few months Johnston will issue a statement that a public inquiry isn’t needed.
Financial Post- Canadians’ interest payments are growing at a record pace
Canadians are now paying 45 per cent more interest than they were a year ago, the fastest increase in records going back to 1990, Statistics Canada said on March 13.
Interest payments totalling $33.2 billion rose 14.1 per cent from the quarter before, surpassing the record increase set in the third quarter.
Nor is there any relief on the horizon. With interest rates likely to remain higher for longer, debt servicing costs are expect to continue rising and not peak until the second half of 2024, said TD economist Ksenia Bushmeneva.
Dear Leader Justin Trudeau declares trans women are women. I hope he consulted his Chinese handlers first. UPDATE: Twitter outrage.
When the word came that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was going to make an announcement about foreign interference in Canadian elections, speculation mounted about what new thing this would be.
The answer was that there wasn’t much new, except for an unnamed new person, in the unfamiliar new role of “special rapporteur,” who would be empowered to recommend what should be done next. Including whether there should be an inquiry.
Make no mistake, this was a scrambling stall tactic, a way to hold off the critics baying for a public inquiry into Beijing’s interference in Canada’s elections. Those critics include the NDP, Mr. Trudeau’s partners in a parliamentary alliance that keeps his minority government in power.
And you know it’s a scramble when the Prime Minister strides into a news conference belatedly to tell us that in the coming days he will appoint an independent, eminent Canadian whom he can’t identify right now but, don’t worry, there are lots of folks like that in Canada.
The rest of the stuff Mr. Trudeau announced, such as reviews by bodies known as NSICOP and NSIRA, were already in the realm of business-as-usual, and already rejected by opposition parliamentarians as not transparent enough.
NSICOP, for example, is a committee of parliamentarians but not a parliamentary committee – it is a body that reports to the executive, sworn to secrecy and under the security rules set by the government.
We were told that Public Safety Minister Minister Marco Mendicino is tasked with launching consultations on creating a foreign-agent registry, which is a good thing and, as it turns out, something the government had already announced in December.
In fact, the first 10 minutes of Mr. Trudeau’s news conference was an exercise in running over old news about what the government has done in the past about foreign interference, or national security, or oversight of national security, before getting to the appointment to come of an unnamed person.
But let’s not miss the thing that has happened here: Mr. Trudeau made a half turn.
Terry Glavin- Changing The Subject, Burying The Story.
It’s becoming increasingly unlikely that any “official” body will provide Canadians with any credible and final answers about what’s been going on here, anytime soon.
20% of CIBC Mortgages Have Reached Their Trigger Rate;
Thanks to skyrocketing interest rates, one out of five Canadians who took out a mortgage with CIBC can no longer afford the interest portion of their loan.
In a footnote included in CIBC’s latest quarterly financial statements, 20% of the bank’s residential mortgage holders have reached their trigger rate, meaning that their monthly payment can no longer cover the interest portion of their loan. In other words, the bank is now increasing the amortization period on $52 billion worth of mortgages out of its $263 billion residential loan portfolio.
Other than that, all is well.

Full interview here.
“Then, Mr. Kong Qingcun and others accompanied Mr. Dong Hanpeng to pay a visit to Mr. Taleeb Noormohamed, a local federal member of Congress. They focused on the construction of the British Columbia Chinese Museum and the docking with the Chinese Heritage and Future Foundation (CCHFF), hoping that CCHFF can be more widely solidarity and support.
To expose foreign interference is to empower foreign interference.
At PROC, Liberal MP Greg Fergus asked the head of CSIS…
“Is it possible in your opinion that unverified, or unconfirmed leaks from secret sources, that may or may not come from officials sources, could in itself represent a form of foreign interference?” #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/KW12Auw2gk

Almost as effective as MP Mark Gerretsen blaming Stephen Harper.
This brilliant video was made back in 2016 by a group in Taiwan.
They knew Trudeau's nature well before Canadian voters did.
Give it a watch & a share.

Via CBCWatcher: This Reddit user discovered the anomalous contributions to the Liberal Papineau Riding Association at the time… and was derided as a racist
Back in 2017, I analyzed public Elections Canada donation records from the 2015 election and detected an unusual volume of large cross-country donations flowing from individuals with Chinese surnames residing in BC into the riding associations of Justin Trudeau (Papineau), Jason Kenney (Calgary Milnapore) and Andrew Leslie (Orléans). These donations are separate from the “cash-for-access” fundraisers that Trudeau organized with CCP-linked billionaires while campaigning for the 2015 election.
I posted about these findings on Reddit, calling for an investigation, and was widely derided as a racist. I also sent in tips to CBC, the Globe and Mail, and CTV. None of these media organizations investigated or reported on the issue.
A few days later, and for about two weeks, whenever I left the house I was obviously trailed by individuals of Chinese appearance (in an area with almost no Asian population). Various individuals would sit in their cars across the street watching our house and waiting for me to leave. This only stopped when I reported the issue to the FBI. […]
The out-of-province donations to Trudeau’s riding association by individuals with Chinese surnames residing in BC dwarfed the donations that he received directly as a candidate. And because these donations were made to his riding association rather than himself or his party, were never reported in the media. Few think to examine riding association donations rather than donations directly to candidates or parties, because the concept of funneling riding association donations to directly support candidates was new to the 2015 election. I’m also not sure if it is legal.
Back in the 1990’s Fox News was the only news broadcaster covering Chinagate… 
The Chinese donors who funded the Trudeau Foundation also wanted a statue of chairman Mao Zedong – the Chinese leader who brought his country under Communist control – erected in Montreal.

Also: Guess what I found? Who was present at the donation signing when a million dollars was given by Niu Gensheng to the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation?
CSIS is at war with Trudeau.
Sharp eyes update – I think if we can track down all these video’s produced on behalf of Han Dong, we might will find out some of the other 10 names on the list.
