Heap big trouble for Trudeau’s plucky little pretendian;

The medical-supply company co-owned by Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault shared a post office box with a woman named in arrests in two major drug busts, according to corporate filings.

It’s a connection that could reveal security gaps in the federal government’s vetting of cabinet picks, corporate ethics and law experts say, and raises new questions about the minister’s judgment amid a recent series of troubling revelations.

The mailbox, rented at an Edmonton UPS Store, appears on the April 2020 licence for the Edmonton MP’s former enterprise, Global Health Imports Corporation (GHI), which National Post obtained from Health Canada through access-to-information legislation.

The mailbox is also listed on a different company’s registration document as the home address for Francheska Leblond, a woman who has been named in run-ins with police since at least 2008, according to Alberta Court of Justice records. She has also reportedly used the name Francheska Quach in the past.

The internet sleuths on X have been on this for days.

So Francheska LeBlond (woman busted with 210 kilos of coke) who runs a numbered company with Randy Boissonnault’s partner, Stephen Anderson, uses the same legal firm for her numbered company as Global Health Imports does, and no one knows each other?

OK.

I’m not sure what’s worse: the over the top rants regarding either minor or non-existent misunderstandings of Australian aborigine culture in a children’s book, or the abject, groveling apologies from the author and publisher.

Prominent First Nations writers have also criticised the book, accusing Oliver of engaging in cultural appropriation, and his publisher, Penguin Random House UK, of making serious errors in judgment.

The award-winning Kooma and Nguri author Cheryl Leavy, who specialises in nonfiction, poetry and children’s literature, told Guardian Australia she was troubled by the book’s themes of child slavery and child stealing, and the appropriation of culture for personal gain.

“There is no space in Australian publishing (or elsewhere) for our stories to be told through a colonial lens, by authors who have little if any connection to the people and place they are writing about.”

National Post Exclusive;

“Global Health is a wholly owned Indigenous and LGBTQ Company,” Boissonnault’s former business partner, Stephen Anderson, specified in a June 2020 bid by Global Health Imports Corporation (GHI) for a contract to supply face masks. National Post obtained the bid through an access-to-information request.

Anderson repeated the statement in a follow-up message to Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) and called the company “Aboriginal” twice when submitting another bid to supply face shields.

The federal government tells potential suppliers that they can only identify themselves as “Aboriginal” if they are on an official qualified list of enterprises eligible to benefit from procurement programs that favour Indigenous–owned firms. GHI was not on it, a government spokesperson said.

Neither Boissonnault nor Anderson answered National Post’s questions about which First Nations, Métis or Inuit groups they belonged to.

It’s quite ironic, really. While no one could be bothered to dig up an alleged murder scene in Kamloops,  Lytton, BC homeowners wanting to rebuild after the wildfire need to wait until all the ancient pottery is exhumed. Not only that, but they have to foot the bill.

Village Mayor Denise O’Connor — whose own house was destroyed in the June 2021 wildfire — said homeowners are getting individual quotes for archeological work that range from $26,000 to $48,000 to much higher, making the work prohibitive.

The archeological digs are made necessary by the village’s location on a historic Indigenous site, as per B.C.’s Heritage Conservation Act (HCA).

Blacklock’s- Defending 400% Rail Subsidy

A 400 percent passenger subsidy at one of Canada’s few Indigenous-run railways is still cheaper than flying, says a federal audit. The Québec line could not run without taxpayers’ aid and will require more subsidies in the future, wrote auditors.

“Federal funding for passenger rail services in remote communities is essential to ensure individuals from these communities can access the ground transportation network and essential medical services,” said the Evaluation Of The Remote Passenger Rail Program.

Orange Flame Day

Via Jonathan Kay: This deserves to be in the first paragraph of Justin Trudeau’s political obituary. He went all in on the 215-bodies social panic so that he could take maudlin teddy-bear selfies and win an election. His defining disgrace.

Hymie Rubenstein- National Day for Truth and Reconciliation delegitimizes truth. So do attempts to criminalize “residential school denialism”

Today is Canada’s “National Day for Truth and Reconciliation,” a statutory holiday in many parts of the country.

A growing cohort of informed Canadians will see this day as one of countless federal government virtue signaling-cum-propaganda efforts meant to obscure, deny, or hide the truth about our country’s interaction with its indigenous people, notably the role played in this interaction by the Indian Residential Schools, a noble albeit flawed and occasionally harmful effort to help Canada’s first settlers adapt to the challenges of a rapidly modernizing country, an effort the historical record shows indigenous people and their leaders strongly embraced.

Blacklock’s- Confirm Hundreds Of Arsons

Cabinet confirms hundreds of church burnings nationwide with a sharp rise in arson attacks following claims that skeletal remains were discovered at an Indian Residential School in Kamloops, B.C. Data were drawn from police reports compiled by Statistics Canada.

The Inquiry counted 423 police-reported incidents at places of worship since 2015, the year the Truth and Reconciliation Commission published a report claiming 4,100 children died at Indian Residential Schools. Arson attacks prior to the 2015 report averaged as few as 13 a year.
