What kind of Monty Python is this?

He Admires Their Basic Dictatorship
Joe Biden and Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, North America’s one-two punch of Marxism, were filmed happily flouncing around the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in matching Mao starter kit jackets.
Where Are The Masks?
While Canadians line up at food banks, and worry about freezing in the dark, Justin is having a wonderful time. Why do we always have to rely on the foreign media to give us real stories about Trudeau?
Even the Liberals Should Be Embarrassed About This
“What it looks like when international media isn’t on the Canadian government payroll and you’re armed with drama instead of intelligence.”

Dispatches From The World’s First Postnational Nation
A Canadian flight crew detained in the Dominican Republic for more than 200 days is expected to be heading home soon, Global News has confirmed.
The crew of a Pivot Airlines flight was first detained in early April, after local authorities alleged drugs were found at Punta Cana International Airport. However, the Mississauga, Ont.-based airline has said the crew themselves were the ones who reported suspected drugs on board their aircraft. […]
Pivot Airlines operates from Toronto Pearson International Airport. In mid-June, the crew released a video appealing to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for his help.
The freaking Dominican Republic.

He Doesn’t Think Much About Monetary Policy
If the US is anything to go by, he’s cruising to re-election:
According to Statistics Canada, consumer bankruptcies have surged 22.5% year-over-year.
The Q3 increase in consumer insolvencies was the largest percentage increase since 2009, when Canadians were being hit by the global financial crisis.
Perversion Is Our Strength
Justin embarrasses us again. Trudeau appears in Drag Race spinoff.

Pithy: Shoutout to 🇨🇦’s finance minister for adding a streaming tax, and then saying it’s time to cut streaming because it’s too expensive. We truly live in the dumbest of times.

Both of these statements are true, and do not contradict each other in any way. pic.twitter.com/i12uNl16hd

And The Budget Will Balance Itself
We’re approaching the point at which we tip over and slide beneath the waves.
We’re permanently eliminating interest on federal student and apprenticeship loans.

Just so you understand — that’s a political party, and not the government, making this announcement.
Climate Justin
Yes forget about petty problems like the rising cost of food, fuel, and housing. The Fall economic statement will be pushing green scams. It will be a great topic when he burns jet fuel around the planet later this month.

It’s Probably Nothing
Everyone thinks their house is worth a lot until they list it.
Real estate lender Romspen Investment Corp. has cut back on its dealmaking in Canada after rising interest rates caused a spike in non-performing loans.
The firm, backed by New York-based TIG Advisors, is acting “defensively” to match the current economic environment in the country, Romspen Managing Partner Derek Jenkin said in an interview. “We’re being very selective in what we finance at this time in Canada.”
Juxtapose!
Canadian Taxpayers Federation- Canada hikes taxes while other countries provide relief
While the government of Canada raised taxes, the CTF identified 51 national governments that provided tax relief during the pandemic or to ease the burdens of inflation. National governments that provided tax relief include more than half of G7 and G20 countries and two-thirds of the countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
How’s about No News?
Financial Post- Online News Act goes off track
The history of the news business is certainly lost in Ottawa, where Heritage Minister Pablo Rodriguez is railroading a piece of legislation — Bill C-18, the Online News Act — through Parliament. Last Friday, Rodriguez abruptly pulled the plug on the House of Commons’ Heritage committee’s hearings on the bill, cutting off possible witnesses, including major corporations that are key targets of the act, including Facebook.

Help Wanted
I can’t imagine why anyone would be upset with the current crop of cabinet ministers. Economy is doing great, housing is plentiful, interest rates are stable, food and fuel are cheap, there’s plenty of space in the hospitals, taxes are going down…
