If Canadians do not get control of OUR COUNTRY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE we all lose our true identity as a Free Nation to think as individuals rather than being dictated to by Trudeau! Fight back now!!!

Keep in mind the long history of this destruction, first established in 1968 when communist Pierre Trudeau seized control of Canadian society.

Ushering in mass immigration, multiculturalism, importing China and Punjab to Canada, he sowed the seeds for "son" Justin to institute a cultural wipe-out.

He certainly did. Now there's a great Canadian patriot, so naturally he will be dragged through the mud by the Liberals and their media cronies.

Colonialism should be recognized. The Arab colonialism of much of Africa. Egyptian Coptic Christians were replaced by Arab Muslims. Africans had Islam forced on them. Then there was the Islamic colonization of Spain. Then there was the Islamic Ottoman colonizing empire.

The native Canadians like the Hurons and the Algonquins slaughtered, tortured and enslaved each other as did many tribes. The native tribes have a history of war and slavery - a type of colonization of other’ lands.

Now the ultimate hypocrisy- the Arab Muslims started the slave trade in Africa and were the main providers of black slaves to the world. Now they come to North America screaming their hatred and opposition to colonialism. And really stupid people don’t even have the sense to realize these Muslim agitators intend to colonize North America and impose Islam and Sharia law. The Muslim Brotherhood and many Muslim organizations have made it clear they intend to take over internally - primarily politically. They don’t even try to hide this goal anymore. Some even say this is their country now - it belongs to Allah. Canada’s Muslim population is 5%. Wait and see what happens when they are 10%.

Very well said! I had to explain to my super dumb and extremely woke sister, who also happens to be a “teacher” that it wasn’t just white people who had slaves. Muslim’s had slaves and are the real conquerors, which can be clearly seen by looking at a Middle East and North African map, (yet play the victim wherever they go, until they get the numbers when it’s too late). Her head almost exploded as the Woke Matrix narrative she was fed couldn’t comprehend some truth.

As a teacher for 31 years, I can confirm that not all teachers are smart.

Yes it’s unfortunate that good, intelligent committed teachers have to be lumped in with the really really dumb ones. Unfortunately the dumb ones and their Marxist loving unions seem to have won. The utter nonsense being taught has dumbed down our society so that a Castro China loving socialist can run the country into bankruptcy and shut down our democratic freedoms to serve himself and his Liberal bagmen - that is exactly what Trudeau has done for 10 years. The shut down of Parliament to prevent the truth about the corrupt Green Slush Fund scandal is just the latest of many many attacks and contempt of Parliament, Parliamentary accountability and Canadians. Education is the key to turning this country around

One look at the EU and British Isles show the future for Canada if we don’t WAKE UP to this very real threat. When Muslims take over our streets to pray five times a day, they are telling YOU that THEY have the power. To hell with disrupting you or your life. There are no-go Muslim parts of every European city where Sharia law is practiced and non-Muslims are shown sometimes violently that they are not welcome there. Police and ambulances do not enter. Canada has endured these Hamas terrorist supporting protests for over a year. They take over our Parks, bridges, roadways and they terrorize Jewish neighbourhoods. What is WRONG with us that we don’t stand up with counter protests and scream ENOUGH! Our Canadian Liberal/NDP parties are OWNED by the entities Peter named and they intend to steal our land and our resources. We need an election.

Come St Patrick's Day will it be inclusive to omit/ban the color green, lamb & potatoes, guiness or shamrocks from the day and wear a sari, and drink a cupa tea in March, to be inclusive?

You may be right. I never voted for that piece of trash, but the mysterious voters did…I have no doubt that Trudeau leads the march of influenced politicians. He is clearly bought and paid for as are his cronies. I go so far as to say Carney is part of the organized bought and paid for group..they are just changing the front man

Of course his media pundits select an official photo that depicts him as a saviour with golden halo. Visual propaganda in full swing.

Inflation Warning: StatsCan Sounds the Alarm

Inflation climbs, energy costs explode, and the government is literally on pause

Dan Knight

Feb 19

READ IN APP

Picture this: You’re on a plane. The engines are sputtering, the fuel gauge is flashing empty, and the ground is coming up fast. You look to the cockpit for some reassurance, some sign that the people in charge know what they’re doing. But instead, the pilots are gone. They’ve unbuckled their seatbelts, abandoned the controls, and are busy arguing over which one of them gets to be in charge next—because, you know, that’s the real priority right now.

They aren’t governing. They aren’t fixing the problems. They’re trying to save their own political skins while the country burns.

This morning’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report tells us exactly what’s coming. Inflation is 1.9% year-over-year, and while that number seems stable, it’s a mirage—because once you strip away the government’s temporary tax gimmicks, what’s underneath is an economy about to collapse.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, Trudeau is about to make it worse.

Let’s start with energy, because that’s where the pain begins. Gasoline prices are up 8.6%, natural gas is up 4.8%, and in Manitoba, gas prices just skyrocketed by a staggering 25.9% thanks to a reintroduced gas tax. That’s before Trump’s looming 25% tariff threat, which would send fuel costs spiraling even higher. This isn’t just bad economic policy—it’s a full-blown attack on the working class. Every trucker, every factory worker, every farmer in this country is about to get walloped by higher costs.

And what is Carney’s Liberal Party’s brilliant plan? Another carbon tax hike.

That’s right. While millions of Canadians struggle to afford gas, heating, and food, Trudeau is jacking up the carbon tax—again—on April 1st. That’s not a joke, that’s not speculation, that’s a fact. On that day, the carbon tax will increase to $80 per tonne, driving up gas prices by another 17 cents per liter. Heating your home? Get ready to pay even more. Running a small business? Good luck.

And if you think you caught a break on food prices, think again. The only reason restaurant meals were down 5.1% year-over-year was because of Trudeau’s temporary GST/HST tax cut—which expires in just a few days. Once it’s gone, the illusion of affordability disappears, and food prices will snap back up. Meanwhile, the housing market is still a disaster. Mortgage interest costs jumped 10.2%, rent is up 6.3%, property taxes are rising, and Trudeau is shoving half a million more immigrants into the housing market every year, making it even worse.

And here’s where it gets really ugly. Donald Trump—the current U.S. president—has made it very clear that he’s prepared to slap a 25% tariff on Canadian goods, with a 10% tariff on Canadian energy. What happens then?

Canadian oil becomes more expensive to export—which means less investment, fewer jobs, and higher energy prices at home.

Manufacturing takes a direct hit—cars, steel, lumber, and agriculture all get more expensive to sell to our biggest trading partner.

The Canadian dollar weakens, making everything from imported food to electronics even more costly.

And what is the Trudeau government doing in response?

Nothing. No plan. No strategy. No action. Because they can’t take action. They’ve abandoned ship. They aren’t focused on inflation, trade, or economic survival. They’re focused on themselves.

Trudeau, Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland, and Karina Gould are on a campaign tour—not for the country, but for the Liberal Party. They’ve literally shut down Parliament—paused democracy itself—so they can focus on their leadership race. Instead of standing before Canadians and explaining how they’re going to stop this economic collapse, they’re off debating amongst themselves over who gets the keys to the sinking ship.

And make no mistake—this isn’t leadership. It’s self-preservation.

Oh sure, they’ll go on CBC and CTV, they’ll look into the camera, nod solemnly, and say they’re “deeply concerned” about affordability. They’ll talk about how they “have a plan” to help Canadians. But let’s be absolutely clear: They cannot execute anything. They can’t pass legislation. They can’t provide relief. They have shut down the government.

The only thing they can do right now is talk. And if they manage to fool enough people into electing them again? Then the real pain begins. More deficits. More immigration. More taxes. The same disastrous Liberal policies that got us here in the first place—only this time, there won’t be a GST holiday to hide the damage.

It’s not just a disgrace. It’s a joke—a sick, insulting joke at the expense of every hardworking Canadian trying to keep their head above water. This country is not some Liberal playground, a sandbox for political elites to bicker over power while the economy crumbles.

And yet, they want you to believe they care about affordability.

Really? Affordability? Because here’s what’s actually happening: The temporary GST break is gone, energy prices are about to skyrocket, and come April 1st, your gas bill goes up again—all thanks to yet another carbon tax hike, courtesy of Mark Carney. That’s right. The man Liberals are grooming to be their next leader is the same unelected banker who cooked up this disaster in the first place.

And now? He gets to inherit it.

So maybe, in some twisted way, this is justice. Maybe it’s actually a blessing that Parliament is prorogued, because it means the Liberals can’t pass any more destructive policies before they’re inevitably thrown out of office. Let Carney take the blame. Let him defend his own brainchild as Canadians get walloped with higher gas prices, higher heating costs, and higher grocery bills.

This is the Liberal legacy: crippling taxes, runaway inflation, and a government too self-absorbed to care. And they have the audacity—the absolute gall—to tell you they’re the ones who will fix it?

Enough. No more distractions. No more backroom power grabs.

Call the election. Face the people. Let Canada decide its future.

The following does a very good job of documenting how poorly Canada’s Muslim Immigrants understand OLD STOCK CANADIANS. They listen to Legacy MSM and believe that it reflects popular sentiment.
