A fitting humiliation for the Liberals, and for Canada
https://nationalpost.com/opinion/chris-selley-a-fitting-humiliation-for-the-liberals-and-for-canada
bozo Liberal MP Mark Gerretsen had accused Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre of not applauding Zelenskyy's address in the House of Commons lustily enough
To capture video evidence of Poilievre's alleged lack of enthusiasm, Gerretsen naturally had to cease clapping altogether, which was inevitably caught on camera by someone else. It was perhaps the ultimate example of the old adage that foreign policy in Canada is 100 per cent for domestic consumption
Government House Leader Karina Gould sought (and did not receive) unanimous consent to expunge the entire Hunka episode from the official history
"Get caught lionizing someone who fought for Hitler … and channel Stalin in response"
Many seemed baffled by Gould's proposal to wipe the record clean, but it seems pretty obvious to me what the Liberals had in mind: They're so hopelessly shipwrecked up their own backsides that they actually thought they might productively accuse the Conservatives of being pro-Nazi for not agreeing to expunge the record. Or at least, they thought that was worth a try, at the cost of Gould's reputation
Poland's education minister says he's 'taken steps' to extradite Yaroslav Hunka
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/yaroslav-hunka-poland-minister-extradite-1.6978266
Poland's education minister says he has "taken steps" to effect the extradition to Poland of Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old Ukrainian Canadian, after it emerged that the veteran served in the Nazi SS Galizien formation during the Second World War.
Robert Currie, a law professor at Dalhousie University and an expert in extradition law, told CBC News Canada does not have a formal extradition agreement with Poland. "That doesn't prevent extradition. It just makes it a matter of more paperwork between the two governments," he said.Currie said Canada and Poland can agree to extradition in Hunka's case. Before that transfer could happen, he added, Poland would have to present evidence that Hunka committed a crime that Canada would recognize — he could not be extradited on the basis of his membership in the Nazi SS Galizien formation."We do not have crimes of association other than organized crime type-offences which are very, very specialized," he said.
Other challenges to extradition in Hunka's case, Currie said, include his advanced age and the question of whether he is fit to stand trial. Hunka could also challenge any extradition in court, a process that could take years.
The Netherlands refused an extradition request from Poland in 2020, citing concerns that judges in that country were not sufficiently independent of the Polish government. "When you have the government interfering with the courts, that gives the appearance of the potential for a fair trial being endangered, and that is an argument that a person can make [to avoid extradition]," Currie said.
B.C. Conservative leader under fire for likening teaching of sexuality, gender to residential schools
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/john-rustad-sept-30-tweet-1.6984159
John Rustad, MLA for Nechako Lakes, acknowledged the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in a Sept. 30 post on X, formerly known as Twitter."Today we remember what happens when the Canadian government thinks it's better at raising children than parents," read Rustad's post on Saturday, which was also shared on his party's official Facebook page."I will always stand with parents."
My tweet was not about the children and the impact that had on on the Indigenous people," said Rustad, a former minister of Aboriginal affairs and reconciliation with the B.C. Liberals, the party now known as B.C. United. "What happened to Indigenous people is obviously a very stark reminder of what happens when government does decide to interfere with the raising of children. And it's a very tragic."But in no way was I trying to compare students today to what students went through, but rather that what parents went through, and parents having their rights taken away, is not right at any level."
Who started calling residential school burial sites mass graves?
https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/first-nations-graves
In the spring of 2021, a series of ground-penetrating radar surveys near the sites of former Indian Residential Schools uncovered anomalies that appeared to be consistent with children's graves. In the nationwide protests that followed, more than 60 Canadian churches were vandalized or destroyed, and statues were pulled down in virtually every major city.
The surveys would help spawn a new holiday, Truth and Reconciliation Day, prompt an official visit by Pope Francis and result in Canadian flags being kept at half-mast for a record-breaking five consecutive months.
And then, just last month, an excavation at the Pine Creek Residential School in Manitoba determined that 14 "anomalies" suspected to be children's graves were actually nothing. To date, of the hundreds of suspected graves identified starting in 2021, Pine Creek is the only one that has been followed up with an archeological dig.
The preliminary claims of First Nations performing the surveys did not state that these were "mass graves," that they were deliberately concealed or that they were the result of homicide. At least in the beginning, the claims of "mass graves" or mass murder would stem mostly from foreign news outlets.
When the Cowessess First Nation in Saskatchewan announced a survey showing 751 unmarked graves near the site of the former Marieval Indian Residential School, Chief Cadmus Delorme was careful to say they were not a mass grave. Rather, these were plots within a larger Catholic cemetery whose headstones Delorme said had been removed by Catholic authorities. "This is not a mass grave site. These are unmarked graves," he said.
Trudeau 'trying to crush free speech' with new podcast rules: Musk
"Trudeau is trying to crush free speech in Canada," the owner of X posted on his social-media site in a reply to journalist Glenn Greenwald. "Shameful."
Greenwald, the co-founder of The Intercept, said in his post to X that Canada is now "armed with one of the world's most repressive online censorship schemes."
The two were responding to changes announced on Friday by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission, which plans to "modernize Canada's broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content."
The two were responding to changes announced on Friday by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission, which plans to "modernize Canada's broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content."
Among the changes are requiring certain streaming services to provide information about their activities and setting conditions for streaming services to operate in Canada, including providing details about their content and subscribership.
The second change is already in effect, the CRTC said on its website, while companies that need to provide information about their activities must do so by Nov. 28.
Trudeau cuts defence spending to fund socialist pet projects
https://nationalpost.com/opinion/trudeau-cuts-defence-spending-to-fund-socialist-pet-projects
In July, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz met with their NATO allies in Vilnius, Lithuania, where they pledged their "enduring commitment to invest at least two per cent of our gross domestic product (GDP) annually on defence," noting that, "in many cases, expenditure beyond two per cent of GDP will be needed in order to remedy existing shortfalls and meet the requirements across all domains arising from a more contested security order."
A few months before reaffirming his commitment to it at the summit, Trudeau reportedly told NATO members behind closed doors that Canada would never spend two per cent of GDP on defence. And indeed, late last week, we learned that his Liberal government is looking to cut $1 billion from the annual defence budget, which would further reduce the measly 1.3 per cent of GDP this country spent on defence last year.
Speaking in front of a parliamentary committee on Thursday, Defence Minister Bill Blair said that, "The fiscal environment in Canada right now requires that when we are spending Canadian taxpayers dollars … we do it carefully and thoughtfully." And he's absolutely right. But it seems a little rich from a government that can't seem to go a week without announcing millions in funding for high-speed internet in some remote part of the country or to virtue-signal for the woke cause du jour, and wastes tens of billions on its fruitless quest to forcibly decarbonize the economy.
Having a military that's capable of defending your country's sovereignty may not seem to be "creating public value for Canadians," as Blair suggested government expenditures should be, and may not be a vote-getter like dental or child care, two areas Treasury Board President Anita Anand insinuated the government needs to find savings in order to fund.
Advocates say Ontario minimum wage increase to $16.55 an hour still not a living wage
Ontario's minimum wage rises today to $16.55 an hour.
The increase is tied to inflation, and is up 6.8 per cent from the previous rate of $15.50 an hour.
Labour advocates and opposition critics have said Ontario should introduce a $20 minimum wage
The Ontario Living Wage Network says a living wage in the Greater Toronto Area is around $23 an hour.
