Fidel Castro is Smiling Up [from Hell] at Lil’ Justin
Tantrum Time
Faced with the news that his media water-carriers are in financial trouble, Maximum Leader publicly berates them for failing to conjure up non-existent customers. Not at all shocking for a man who sees no need for boundaries between the state and the economy.
A fired-up Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unleashed on Bell on Friday, calling its move to layoff thousands of employees — including hundreds of journalists — a “garbage decision.”
“I’m pretty pissed off about what’s just happened,” Trudeau said during a press conference in Toronto.
“This is the erosion not just of journalism, of quality local journalism at a time where people need it more than ever, given misinformation and disinformation…. It’s eroding our very democracy, our abilities to tell stories to each other.”
(From Kate) Drama Queen: the PM had at least 16 weeks statutory notice from Bell about layoffs of this magnitude so “garbage decision” & “pretty pissed off” were hardly “from the heart”.
Shameless Lil’ Castro Won’t Accept His Nazi Blunder
Has the moron ever spoken an ounce of truth in his entire life?
Trudeau’s Political Prisoners
“It is a small comfort that two of Canada’s political prisoners are now free. But no Canadian is free when their civil liberties can be trampled at will by their Prime Minister.”

2 Canadian Political Prisoners Released
It’s beyond appalling what the Coutts Four have gone through. Now two of them are free.

Big news out of Coutts, Alta.
Two of the men charged with conspiracy to commit murder at the border blockade in 2022 plead guilty to minor charges and have been released for time served.
Did the prosecutors have no case? Was it all political?

The Libranos: ArriveScam
Follow the science.
It seems the reason ArriveCan ended on Sep 30, 2022 had nothing to do with science, nor safety. It had to do with a time-limited *privacy impact exemption* that the Treasury Board/ Privacy Commissioner granted to Public Health Agency of Canada back on May 4, 2021.
Why would an App that collects data about folks’ names, addresses, cell, email, jab status, etc.- developed by a mysterious group of expensive consultants- need an exemption to a Privacy Impact Assessment? Why didn’t it want typical oversight? How & with whom was it sharing info?
Here is a link to the full ATIP, where the Treasury Board/Information Commissioner granted PHAC a time-limited Privacy Impact Assessment waiver… ending on, yup, *Sep 30, 2022*.
Once PHAC would have to account for privacy issues, it abandoned the app.

Making Headlines
Professor Glenn H. Reynolds, the great Instapundit himself, writes about Prime Minister Trudeau in The New York Post.
“His critics call him Prime Minister Zoolander after the vacuous male model in the movie of the same name.”
“But Canada’s Justin Trudeau is someone much more sinister.”
Road Trip!
Honk! Honk!
Oh No! Justin’s MPs Are Upset
Apparently Poilievre has summoned the dogs of MAGA conservatism. Tucker and Smith are spreading hate and division. This from the government that persecuted the Freedom Convoy and trashes Canadians that disagree with its socialist values and policies.
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
David Lametti, the former Justice Minister and Attorney General of Canada, is resigning from his position, effective February 1st.
His term as Attorney General was notably marked by the Freedom Convoy protests in February 2022 and the subsequent response from the Trudeau Government.
Lametti’s resignation comes two days after a federal court judge ruled the Liberals violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms by invoking the Emergencies Act against protesters in Ottawa during the Freedom Convoy.
“Trudeau government use falsified evidence to shut down the truckers’ protest”
Public and others have reported on illegal abuses of power by government intelligence, security, and military agencies across the Western world. These abuses of power have included censorship efforts by the US Department of Homeland Security and British military; Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) entrapment schemes; and FBI and Secret Service involvement in January 6, 2021 pipe bomb disinformation.
Now, a months-long Public investigation reveals that the Canadian government used disinformation to crack down on the “Freedom Convoy” protest, led by truckers demanding an end to Covid-19 vaccine mandates, in February 2022. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Canada’s national police force, then promoted this false information to other “Five Eyes” English-speaking nations.
This discovery is significant because it contributes to a pattern of intelligence agencies from the US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, which have collaborated on surveillance since World War II, being caught abusing their powers to investigate and persecute the political enemies of elected officials.[…]
On February 14, 2022, Trudeau took the extraordinary measure of invoking the “Emergencies Act” for the first time in Canada’s history. The Act gave the government sweeping powers to arrest protesters, freeze their bank accounts, seize property, and dismantle blockades, which is what Trudeau did.
Central to Trudeau’s invocation of the Act was the alleged threat of right-wing extremism and violence, but new documents that podcaster Jeremy Mackenzie obtained through Canada’s freedom of information law show that this drastic measure was based on fabricated intelligence. What’s more, Canada appears to have shared this disinformation with other members of the Five Eyes alliance. Five Eyes includes Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.

Autonomous Truckers- The Inner Strength of a Political Prisoner
It has been nearly two years since Jerry Morin, Chris Carbert, Chris Lysak, and Tony Olienick were arrested in relation to their participation at the Coutts, Alberta Freedom Convoy protest site. They have been denied bail, and their trial is not set to begin until May 2024, a full 27 months after their arrests.
They’re not being kept in the Ritz. As Mark Steyn likes to say the process is the punishment.
So here is my update since December 5 when I was transferred from Medicine Hat remand to Calgary Remand, upon arrival they humiliate us by strip searching us and then body scan us with some machine you stand on as it traverses back and forth pumping you with radiation waves even though they say its “perfectly” normal (add eye rolling emoji) from there I was sent to unit 7 which is an intake unit for guys right off the street, its a very dirty unit and thankfully the inmate had cleaned the dried puke off my bunk with his socks right before I arrived to be his cell mate. He had then threw the socks into the toilet and tried flushing them and they plugged the toilet. So we had no working toilet until the next day when thankfully staff came and fixed the problem.
Those without time to read the whole thing might want to scroll down to the bottom for the day to day accounts of what these men are going through.

As food bank use skyrockets, Justin Trudeau takes time out of his busy schedule for a photo op. It’s posted on “VanPeople’s” WeChat.
One account is run from Canada.
The other has an IP address in Beijing. Created in 2018, it was used to attack Erin O’Toole in the last election.
Otherwise, it’s business as usual.

I have to be honest, I'm not a fan of this reporter or his tactics, but if you watch the video…he really was falsely arrested on a trumped up charge of "assaulting an officer." Or am I missing something? https://t.co/b7YsgH4jia
