In some far off distant place, if an army is built to primarily crush its own citizens, how would you describe that place?
💥BOMBSHELL: Canada’s top General Jennie Carignan just admitted on Sky News—they’re building a WOKE ARMY of public service workers.
Canada may not see full-scale civil war, but they’re gearing up to crush anti-government civil unrest.

Well, slush money for Montreal at least. It’s anyone’s guess why a port currently at 72% capacity really needs to expand, but we can dream, can’t we?
Nathalie Pilon, the chair of the Port of Montreal’s board of directors, said the expansion is needed, despite a recent decline in overall cargo traffic she attributed in part to U.S. tariffs. She said the port is at around 72 per cent capacity now, and that problems arise when 85 per cent is attained.
You’d think that having a four lane highway across the country might be a priority too, but roads to the Arctic seem to be the all the rage now. Mexico’s got a better road network than Canada at this juncture.
The prime minister said construction on another project, the Mackenzie Valley Highway in the Northwest Territories, would begin this summer

It’s pretty much a slam dunk that Carney will have a majority after the April 13th by-elections, considering that two of the seats are in very safe Liberal territory. If so, how long will it be until he reverses course on his Conservative Lite approach to governance? Consumer carbon taxes, anyone? How about “Investments” in EVs and high speed rail?
If the Liberals win two of the three byelections, they will hold 173 seats, or 174 seats if they win all three byelections, which would let them pass legislation without needing to rely on the Speaker or on any other parties to support them.
Another Liberal who ran as a Conservative outs themselves.
Marilyn Gladu has crossed the floor to join the Liberal Party of Canada, becoming the latest opposition member to enter Prime Minister Mark Carney’s governing caucus.
In a statement released by the Liberals on Wednesday, the longtime Conservative MP said her decision followed a year of economic uncertainty and feedback from constituents calling for “serious leadership” and a plan to strengthen Canada’s economy.
Gladu, who has represented the southwestern Ontario riding for more than a decade, said joining the government would better position her to advocate for local priorities and contribute to national economic goals, including job creation, trade diversification and housing construction.
Because the solution to “economic uncertainty” is to join forces with Team Uncertainty.
Gladu framed the move as a return to her riding’s historical role as a “bellwether” constituency, noting that Sarnia—Lambton had typically elected government MPs for decades prior to her tenure in opposition.
And there’s no comfy fur waiting for members in opposition.

Cushion the blow? That sounds like the Feds will hand out free Squishmallows at the gas pumps. Could’ve had some pipelines, but it’s getting a bit late even for that. An end to the industrial carbon tax would help, but I’m not holding my breath.
Oil prices have surged since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, averaging more than $1.80 per litre across Canada today, compared with about $1.32 a year ago.
Carney says his government wants to help “cushion the blow” for Canadians.
The world is noticing that something has gone very wrong in Canada.
Carney fast-tracked the Grays Bay road project in Nunavut. $750 million in taxpayer money.
It leads to the Izok Lake mine.
On the night of January 8, 2020, a Boeing 737 carrying 55 Canadian citizens and 30 permanent residents climbed out of Tehran’s Imam Khomeini International Airport and was destroyed by two missiles fired by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. One hundred and seventy-six people died. Iran denied it for three days, bulldozed the crash site, and then blamed a single soldier’s misidentification error.
Canada accepted that framing, more or less. It still does.
This week, Mohammad Javad Zarif — Iran’s former foreign minister, now a prominent public advocate for Tehran’s position in its war with the United States and its allies — posted publicly that Western military action constitutes a war crime involving the deliberate killing of civilians.
The statement drew wide attention. It drew no attention to the fact that Zarif is the same official who, in a secretly recorded conversation obtained and studied by Canadian security agencies in the months after PS752 was destroyed, privately acknowledged that an organized, intentional attack on that civilian aircraft was “not at all unlikely” — and that the truth would never be revealed because doing so would expose the inner workings of Iran’s defense systems.
That tape should not be treated by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and CSIS as a mere artefact of history. Recent events have only strengthened the case against Iran.[…]
In early March 2026, Iranian missiles struck Camp Canada at Ali Al-Salem Air Base in Kuwait, damaging bunkers where about 200 Canadian Armed Forces personnel were sheltering. Iran also launched missiles at non-combatant nations in the region, suggesting an asymmetric strategy aimed at dividing the US-led campaign from potential allied supporters.
Russia feeds Iran targeting data for such strikes.
The Carney government sat on the Canadian base strike story for eleven days, until a French-language newspaper in Montreal broke it. Conservative defense critic James Bezan called the silence shameful.

Retired Lt. Colonel David Redman, former head of Alberta’s emergency management, has accused federal authorities of the intentional erosion of Canada’s national security apparatus over the past 11 years.
“To go from calling China the largest strategic threat to Canada one year ago and now calling it a very significant strategic partner is a completely intentional act. You can’t say it’s not. And so from my point of view, each of the steps in the degradation of Canada’s 10 elements of national security have been thought through and are intentional.”
Speaking on the Hannaford show, Redman outlined the “purposeful destruction” of agencies responsible for geopolitical analysis, intelligence services, border controls, immigration policy, and policing. He argued this was not the result of negligence or misplaced priorities under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, but deliberate acts aimed at weakening national unity and validating the prime minister’s understanding of Canada as a “post-national state.”
He said they have been “intentionally destroyed or reduced in capability,” to erode Canada’s ability to defend its culture, values, and sovereignty. Redman drew parallels to policies under Pierre Elliott Trudeau, suggesting his son continues a similar agenda by prioritizing global interests over national ones.
“When you bring in people who do not share your common interests and values,” he said, “it’s an intentional act to break the unity.”
Melanie in Saskatchewan has an important message to share with the Elbows Up crowd:
To Mark Carney & Those Applauding Him:
I am a Canadian paying for a country that doesn’t include me.
I live in the part of the country your map forgets.
About 2,600 kilometres from the nearest stop on your proposed $90 billion train.I am an overtaxed, under-served Canadian.
I heat my home with rising costs.
I fill my vehicle at almost $2 a litre, depending on the day and my luck.
I watch a country with 163 billion barrels of oil behave like it’s on a meagre allowance.And you want me to pay for a train I will never use.
How thoughtful.
RCMP officers were executing a search warrant at an illegal cannabis storefront on Highway 4 in Potlotek at 7:30 a.m. when a group gathered to protest and blocked the highway.
“In consideration of protester safety, officers chose not to leave the premises using their vehicles. Once officers cleared their vehicles of weapons, they departed on foot and their vehicles remained in Potlotek,” the force said in a news release Friday.[…]
“The seven RCMP vehicles that remained in Potlotek after the search warrant execution on April 2 were removed from the community this morning. Damage to the vehicles includes broken windows, dents, deflated tires, removed tires, and urine-soaked interior surfaces,” it said.
“Protest”. That’ll help with recruitment.
