Trudeau’s Jamaican Vacation Scandal

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has found himself amid yet another scandal for allegedly using his position to accept a luxurious vacation in Jamaica over the Christmas holiday. The House ethics committee has voted to investigate the matter further. Why does this matter? Trudeau has branded himself as the dictator of ethics and expects everyone else to abide by his rules. Rules for thee, but not for me.

Trudeau’s office initially said that he was taking his family on a vacation for the Christmas season, and the PM would be paying for his trip. Then his office changed the story to say that the Trudeau family would be staying with a friend, businessman Peter Green. His family did not simply stay with a relative or crash in a spare room. Instead, they enjoyed a vacation at the Prospect Estate resort in Jamaica, free of charge. It is estimated that his stay at the resort was worth C$84,000.

The trip was essentially gifted to him, therefore breaking Canadian laws that state members of Parliament are not permitted to accept gifts, trips, or kickbacks in any form. Conservative MP Michael Barrett requested additional documents related to the trip but was denied. “The question is not that the prime minister went somewhere, he accepted an $84,000 gift,” Barrett said, referring to Trudeau’s remarks. “He didn’t sleep on a couch at Uncle Buck’s place.”

This is not the first time that Trudeau has accepted a gift. In 2016, Trudeau paid a visit to Aga Khan’s private island in the Bahamas where he was comped a C$271,000 vacation. The RCMP found that he was provided C$56,000 on jet ski rentals, accommodations, and meals during his stay. Again, Trudeau accepted a kickback from a person who was lobbying the Canadian government, and there was a clear unethical conflict of interest.

Many see this as a slap in the face, especially considering the median income in Canada is only C$70,000. Trudeau knew there would be no long-term consequences for his actions. He repeatedly skirts away from scandal after scandal. It is time for those in charge to realize the rules they impose on the public apply to everyone. The Canadian government should make it crystal clear to Trudeau that he is NOT above the law.

Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission Requires Podcasters and Platform Providers to Register With Government – “Meaningful Content” Will Be Monitored


Posted originally on the CTH on October 2, 2023 | Sundance

Comrades, all your speech are belong to us…

In order to control information that may be averse to the regime in charge, various totalitarian government operations require registration.  The registration process generates a permit that can then be leveraged against any operation that doesn’t conform to the regime fiats.

A few days ago, the North American hub of speech and information control known as Canada, announced that all internet hosting platforms that give voice to podcasters must register with the government.

Additionally, it appears that any podcast who wishes to provide information must also register.  The users and viewers do not need to register, only those providing the content.

Gee, I wonder who the core target is here?

CANADA – Today, the CRTC is advancing its regulatory plan to modernize Canada’s broadcasting framework and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content.

On May 12, 2023, the CRTC launched its first public consultations. After thoroughly examining all the evidence on the public record, including over 200 interventions, the CRTC is issuing its first two decisions.

First, the CRTC is setting out which online streaming services need to provide information about their activities in Canada. Online streaming services that operate in Canada, offer broadcasting content, and earn $10 million or more in annual revenues will need to complete a registration form by November 28, 2023. Registration collects basic information, is only required once and can be completed in just a few steps.

Second, the CRTC is setting conditions for online streaming services to operate in Canada. These conditions take effect today and require certain online streaming services to provide the CRTC with information related to their content and subscribership. The decision also requires those services to make content available in a way that is not tied to a specific mobile or Internet service.

A third consultation is ongoing. It considers contributions traditional broadcasters and online streaming services will need to make to support Canadian and Indigenous content. The CRTC will hold a three-week public proceeding starting on November 20, 2023, and will hear from 129 intervenors representing a broad range of interests. (read more)

Canada to be Short 3.45 Million Homes by 2030


Armstrong Economics Blog/Real Estate Re-Posted Oct 2, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

The demand for housing in Canada drastically outweighs the supply. The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has confirmed that fewer new builds are expected for 2024. In fact, the agency anticipates that Canada will be short by 3.45 million homes by 2030 – right on time. Better yet, the gap is certain to widen if/when Canada expands its immigration policies.

The CMHC expected Canada to build 18.58 million new dwellings by 2030 but recently revised that estimate down to 18.19 million. Ontario has the largest current supply gap with a deficit of 1.46 million homes. Nova Scotia, Quebec, B.C., and Alberta experienced a notable decrease in supply compared to last year’s projections. Despite Canadians having nowhere to call home, Trudeau plans to open the border to 500,000 immigrants by 2025.

“This report again highlights the crucial role of increasing housing supply if the goal is to make housing affordable for everyone in Canada. It also demonstrates the importance of examining both economic and demographic variables given the recent changes that have been experienced in both,” Aled ab Iorwerth, deputy chief economist at CMHC, said in the report. The CMHC also admitted that the supply gap will widen if immigration persists.

Therefore, expect Trudeau to extend his current immigration policies. This is precisely what is needed for the government to take over and create 15-minute cities to solve the crisis they created. It is all spelled out on the United Nations website. As you can see in the video below, people want to do the right thing by housing the homeless, but that is not financially possible and avoids the core issue. When there are encampments throughout the nation, the people will be less reluctant to deny government assistance. Government assistance equates to using tax dollars to subsidize housing for others, which will make it increasingly hard for those barely getting by. In comes 15-minute cities with free transportation and that affordable housing everyone has wished to see, yet it will only be affordable because you will be renting from the elite indefinitely. You will own NOTHING.
