Our Queen of Climate

Blacklocks- Round The World At $254,000

Records show Stewart within days of her appointment embarked on repeated round-the-world trips that cost $254,089 to date. Stewart traveled to Abu Dhabi, Amsterdam, Bali, Beijing, Bern, Brasilia, Brussels, Cairo, Copenhagen, Delhi, Florence, Geneva and Helsinki.

Stewart typically traveled by air even where passenger train service was available. The Ambassador in 2023 flew from Ottawa to Toronto to attend a climate conference “to promote Canada’s clean growth.” Expenses totaled $10,096 including airfare and $323 a night at the Sheraton Centre Hotel.

Stewart frequently flew from Ottawa to New York City rather than take the train. When in New York she stayed at the Lexington Hotel at $411 per night or Hyatt Herald Square at $440.

Seizing Bank Accounts 2.0

Blacklocks- $42M In 14 Days Or Else: Feds

The Agency on June 25 then issued a Requirement To Pay notice to the Province’s account holders, the Royal Bank of Canada. The Agency claims Saskatchewan now owes a total $55,592,632 in carbon taxes plus $237,140 interest.

“They started with the threats,” Attorney General Eyre said in a statement. The federal cabinet was “threatening us again with their favourite move when someone disagrees with them,” she said.

“They are sending the Canada Revenue Agency after the Province’s bank accounts,” said Eyre. “That is what they are doing.”

Update, by Kate:

The Saskatchewan Party says its application for a court injunction to stop the Canada Revenue Agency from collecting the federal carbon tax from the province has succeeded.

“The court ruled in our favour, blocking the federal government from unconstitutionally garnishing money, pending the full hearing and determination of the continuation of the injunction by the Federal Court,” Bronwyn Eyre, the provincial justice minister and attorney general said Monday.

Eyre said garnishing a provincial bank account violates Section 126 of Canada’s constitution. The issue will now go a full hearing.

That’s the Saskatchewan Government, you tools.

When You Rig an Election…

…but still manage to lose.

Daily Mail- Over 200 French election candidates quit in effort to block Marine Le Pen’s hard-Right party forming government 

Alex Christoforou- Macron conspired with New Popular Front to prevent the far right National Rally (Le Pen) from winning the second round election. It worked so well that now France may be ruled by the far left. Its leader (Mélenchon) is now calling on Macron to resign immediately. You can’t make this stuff up

“I Wish That I Had Never Met You,”

I know the feeling.

Sun- Yet another former cabinet minister blasts Trudeau

That Trudeau doesn’t seek advice from ministers, including his foreign affairs minister, shouldn’t be shocking to anyone paying attention. While Stephen Harper had regular formal and informal meetings with ministers, that’s not Trudeau’s style.

In the early years of the Trudeau government when they leaned heavy on the idea that “Canada is back,” Trudeau met with his then foreign affairs minister Stephane Dion just once in 14 months on the job.

Say It Isn’t So, Joe!

This and more from Ed Driscoll: Parkinson’s disease specialist has visited the White House residence medical clinic at least nine times since July 2023.

A top Washington D.C. neurologist had a meeting with President Biden’s personal doctor at the White House earlier this year, visitor logs reviewed by The Post show.

Dr. Kevin Cannard, a Parkinson’s disease expert at Walter Reed Medical Center, met with Dr. Kevin O’Connor, and two others at the White House residence clinic on Jan. 17, according to the records, which emerge as questions continue to swirl about the 81-year-old president’s mental health in the wake of his debate debacle last week with former President Trump.

The headlines at Drudge are frantic.

Tinkering At The Fringes

I have a better idea: Why not shut this thing down entirely? There’s no way to make an institution premised on the idea of collective rights somehow less bad than it actually is.

The Opposition Conservatives vowed Friday that a future Pierre Poilievre-led government would remove the man the Liberals just appointed to lead the Canadian Human Rights Commission.

[Lantsman] said Dattani has a “long track record of anti-Israel statements,” including a “justification of terrorism,” and that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau should demand Dattani stand down or “fire him.”

If it’s not shut down, then travesties like this one will just become commonplace.
