Seeing Canadian issues through a multi-cultural lens. Writing on some of these issues, too. Often mistaken as a 'c/Conservative' or 'right-winger'.

Appointments of unqualified cronies to positions of high responsibility is a serious problem, in governments across the political spectrum.

We lament low productivity in our economy, but it is an equal - perhaps greater - affliction in our politics.

“The Parti Québécois (PQ) is asking the CAQ government to freeze temporary immigration for this year in the categories it controls.

…according to PQ leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, it is necessary because of the housing crisis.”

Elevator Chat: Episode 37 (Duration: 7 minutes)

Now that it is possible to talk openly about high immigration, we are seeing ideas being expressed that are on the more extreme side. CPC must distance itself from these ideas and people.

Issuing fishing licenses 4a threatened species, seeking 2deal w/poaching by banning legal fishers, unresolved claims of indigenous rights, partial reporting by media & even alleged foreign criminals – this is a trademark Canadian mess.

If we accept that a failing healthcare system can provide its neglected patients with ‘the agency to end their pain’ via MAiD *without consequence for the people running the healthcare system*, we are essentially mandating death for people considered ‘unworthy’ of medical care.

“When a person is in unbearable pain, they need the agency to end their pain. How they got to that point is another matter.”

Sure, let’s talk about that another matter.

Do the people who brought him to that point get charged with criminal neglect causing death?

Minister Fraser: “Canada has a choice.”

Darshan: “I agree. Now, in order for Canada to exercise that choice, please call an election.”

It is interesting to note that the official term ‘price on pollution’ is suddenly replaced with the neologism ‘consumer carbon levy’ now that Jagmeet / NDP wants to distance himself / itself from it.

Oh dear.

The Star saying something that would have been decried as blasphemy just a few months ago.

“Canada needs to lower annual immigration intake”

Some of us have been saying it for a long time. The current pace of intake is insane.

One reason why LMIA fraud is roaring business.

Prior to the pandemic, he would have easily gotten PR. Not now. Yesterday's general draw was CRS 546 cutoff; hence the high value of an LMIA - automatic 50 CRS points.

At least this person is choosing to stay honest & leave.

In retrospect, the appointment of Max Valiquette (a marketing guru with self described expertise in 'understanding Millennials and Generation Z') as his executive director of communications will be seen * by LPC itself* as a grave error of judgment on the part of PM Trudeau.

I see people say here that Canada only exports metallurgical coal.

That’s untrue. We also export thermal coal (used for generating electricity).

During Trudeau’s tenure as PM, Canada’s exports of thermal coal have DOUBLED.

Why are we paying carbon tax?

“In 2023, there are 109 young men in Canada for every 100 young women.

This means that 9% of young men in Canada will be unable to find a mate, due primarily to immigration.”

Or many of these young men are immigrants and will find a mate in their country of origin.
