Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is on the WEF Board of Trustees


Armstrong Economics Blog/Great Reset RE-Posted Oct 3, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is officially a member of the World Economic Forum’s Board of Trustees. Klaus Schwab meant it when he said he had infiltrated cabinets across the globe. They are not even trying to hide the corruption. When I mention that Canada is on track for the Great Reset, I am not discussing a conspiracy theory. People want to deny the uncomfortable truth that Canada has been sold off to the globalists.

Before she was brought under Schwab’s wing, she wrote a book in 2012 entitled: “Plutocrats: The Rise of the New Global Super Rich and the Fall of Everyone Else.” The plutocrats are the globalists elites who control the masses. “Some farsighted plutocrats try to use their money not merely to buy public office for themselves but to redirect the reigning ideology of a nation, a region or even the world,” Freeland wrote. Now she stands on the stage at Davos and conspires with the other plutocrats, and has quickly moved up in the ranks to become a sitting board member. She knew of the power this group had long before she was invited to be in the club.

Freeland herself refuses to admit that this is a serious conflict of interest. Yet, she, more so than Trudeau, is deep within the World Economic Forum as a decision-maker. Hence, Freeland has become a warmonger hellbent on providing Ukraine with endless funds for an endless war. She wants to achieve all of the net zero emission goals by siphoning money from Canadians. She spoke on how housing is a major global crisis but has done nothing to help Canada’s growing homeless population and has worsened matters by inviting half a million people to come to Canada. Canadians should pay close attention to the WEF’s agenda as their leaders will follow it precisely.

Trudeau Expands Ministry of Truth


Armstrong Economics Blog/International News Re-Posted Oct 3, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

The elites do not want the people openly discussing ideas. They are threatened by original thoughts and want to limit our available information for their protection. Banning together would be a threat to government, and they cannot allow the masses to know what is going on behind the scenes. PM Justin Trudeau has banned all free speech. He censored the news that could be shared on social media, and now he is cracking down on podcasts and livestreams.

Podcasts have exploded in popularity in recent years. People like Joe Rogan attract millions of monthly listeners, and he freely and openly discusses theories, conspiracies, government ploys, and any other topic of interest. The Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) will now regulate, or “modernize,” in their words, podcasts. “We are developing a modern broadcasting framework that can adapt to changing circumstances. To do that, we need broad engagement and robust public records. We appreciate the significant participation during this first phase and look forward to hearing a diversity of perspectives at our contributions proceeding in November,” stated Vicky Eatrides, Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer, CRTC.

They will begin by targeting the most popular podcasts first. Anyone earning over $10 million through online streaming must register with the CRTC by November 28, 2023. Then, the content creator must provide the agency “with information related to their content and subscribership.” The Canadian government wants to know who is listening to these perceived anti-government networks and track these dangerous characters.

The CRTC is holding a three-week (yes almost a month) proceeding to determine how they can support Canadian and Indigenous content on streaming platforms. Even their lie of wanting to promote Canadian content was poorly executed. This is Trudeau’s Ministry of Truth. He is silencing all opposition and preventing the public from sharing ideas. This will be more important than ever as we move toward 2032.

Matt Gaetz Gives Press Conference on Capitol Steps

Matt Gaetz Formally Files Motion to Vacate the Chair and Remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy


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

Congressman Matt Gaetz (MAGA-FL) has followed through with his stated opposition to Kevin McCarthy after the passage of a blank check 45-day continuing resolution supported by Democrats.

Taking to the House floor today, Representative Gates filed his official motion to vacate the chair.  WATCH:

 WASHINGTON DC – Kevin McCarthy is officially facing the test that’s plagued his entire speakership: conservatives forcing a vote to oust him.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) on Monday night filed a formal motion to eject the speaker, a maneuver last attempted in 1910 and never successfully completed. The House must act by Wednesday on the matter — and while McCarthy may yet survive depending on how Democrats vote, even a failed challenge to his speakership weakens him going forward.

It’s far from clear that Gaetz has the votes to depose McCarthy, as the Floridian himself acknowledged to reporters after making his move. Only three colleagues, Reps. Eli Crane (R-Ariz.), Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) and Bob Good (R-Va.), are openly supportive of his effort. But a handful of other House Republicans frustrated with the speaker are seen as persuadable on the matter of his future.

Among those potential GOP swing votes: Reps. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.), Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) and Dan Bishop (R-N.C.).

“I have enough Republicans where at this point next week one of two things will happen: Kevin McCarthy won’t be the speaker of the House or he’ll be the speaker of the House serving at the pleasure of Democrats,” Gaetz said, referring to the near-certain likelihood that Democratic votes will be required in order to keep McCarthy’s hold on the top gavel.

“I’ve made peace with either result,” Gaetz added. (read more)

We all need to let our congressional representatives know whether we support or do not support the motion.

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 websiteAs 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.

British Defense Secretary States They Are Putting Military Troops into Ukraine


Posted originally on the CTH on September 30, 2023 | Sundance 

First the backdrop.  Let us not pretend a confluence of events do not all go in one direction.

U.S. troops are conducting military exercises in eastern Moldova {link}.  The CIA and State Department are the operational mechanism for all Ukraine military operations, and in total control of the Ukraine government {link}.  American contracted mercenary troops operating in Ukraine are being treated at U.S. military hospitals in Germany {link}.  U.S. military operations are flying drone missions above Ukraine, and U.S. satellites are coordinating the battlespace.  Additionally, the U.S. is sending Abrams tanks, F-16 fighter jets along with support and training teams, and long-range missile launching systems into Ukraine. {link}

For all intents and purposes, the U.S driven NATO military forces are already actively engaged in Ukraine.

Simultaneously, the Dept of Defense {link} and CIA {link} have announced the deployment of advanced artificial intelligence operations for U.S. internet systems. That creation aligns with the Dept of Homeland Security organizing “homeland intelligence experts” {link} to control and monitor public information and shape U.S. public opinion.  All of this is happening under the guise of national security.  We have the COVID-19 backdrop to identify the public-private partnership approach to controlling information.  This same process can easily be deployed to cover Ukraine sensitive content.

There’s your backdrop with citations.  Now, given all of that, doesn’t the alignment of the demonstrable datapoints all flow in one unilateral direction?

The British are now saying the quiet part publicly and out loud:

The Telegraph – In an interview with The Telegraph, [Defense Secretary] Grant Shapps said that he had held talks with Army leaders about moving “more training and production” of military equipment into Ukraine. He also called on more British defence firms to set up factories in Ukraine.

Following a trip to Kyiv last week, Mr Shapps also reveals that he has talked to Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president, about how Britain’s Navy could play a role in defending commercial vessels from Russian attacks in the Black Sea.

Both moves would mark a significant escalation in the UK’s involvement in defending Ukraine against Vladimir Putin’s onslaught. Speaking in his first newspaper interview as Defence Secretary. (read more

They are determined to take us to war.

Last point, as you contemplate the severity by which everything is being organized, regardless of public opinion, don’t forget to overlay this context with their opposition to President Donald Trump; the one guy who could stop all of this.

Now do you see the context for the U.S. intelligence apparatus to manipulate everything about the 2024 election, including the use of RFK Jr?
