Martin,

I polls just like in the US are never correct. There’s no doubt that many Canadians suffer from Trump derangement, my guess is most Canadians still view the US in a favorable light.

As you are aware Canada really doesn’t produce very much any longer, we’ve become a very unfriendly Country to do business in. With the pending changes to the Capital Gains tax, it will completely kill small businesses.

I really believe what we are witnessing is a well executed plan to continue to decide the people and the media is the main propaganda tool.

The same people who control the media are the same people who are part of the evil and corrupt system?

SYSTEM OF CONTROL.

Crimes against Humanity.

You are not meant to think for yourself.

You are not meant to challenge their power [control].

Obey and accept.

Illusion of Democracy.

Illusion of Freedom.

Why does the media push division?

Why does the media incite violence?

Why does the media pit race v race?

Why does the media pit religion v religion?

Why does the media pit sex v sex?

Why does the media pit class v class?

Divided you are weak.

Divided you fight each other.

Divided you pose no threat to their system of control.

UNITY IS STRENGTH.

UNITY IS POWER.

UNITY IS HUMANITY.

Controlled media plays a major role in shaping the narrative(s) to keep you mpowerless [helpless] and asleep [unaware of truth].

ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.

ENEMY OF HUMANITY.

Over a Quarter of Canadians See US as an Enemy

The once strong alliance between Canada and the United States has come to an abrupt halt. More so than tariffs, Canadians were offended when President Donald Trump continually stated that America should absorb Canada as the 51st state. A recent poll found that over a quarter of Canadians now see the US as an enemy nation.

The Leger survey of 1,500 Canadians and 1,000 Americans found that 27% of Canadian respondents view the United States as an “enemy,” although 30% still consider the neighboring nation an “ally.” On the flip side, only 1% of Americans see Canadians as an “enemy,” with 56% believing they remain an “ally.”

Canadians from every political party expressed unfavorable views of Donald Trump. Overall, 74% of respondents do not see him in a favorable light. Conservative Party members were most likely to have a favorable view with 27% approving of the US president and only 18% deeming the US an “enemy.” Only 21% of Liberals and NDP supporters see the US as an ally, with 34% and 47% deeming America an “enemy” nation.

There have been calls throughout Canada to boycott American products. Amazon revealed it would be closing its Quebec warehouse, eliminating 2,000 jobs, leading to a widespread call among Canadians to boycott Amazon and cancel Prime memberships. Others are calling for a boycott on other American streaming services like Netflix and Disney.

Canadian consumers are boycotting American food items. I have friends in Canada who have said that US products have been sitting on the shelves at a discount as Canadians no longer wish to contribute to the US economy. Even certain coffee shops have renamed the “Americano” espresso drink to the “Canadiano,” and many have begun boycotting American fast food chains like Starbucks and McDonald’s. Some are calling for a travel boycott and urging fellow Canadians to vacation elsewhere for at least the next four years until Trump is out of office.

Anti-American sentiment will only rise if these tariffs go into effect. Trump told Canada that the US was subsidizing its economy and no longer considered it a vital trading partner. Americans would understandably take offense if another world leader suggested that Americans abandon sovereignty to join a foreign nation. The only positive is that this patriotic nationalism has repaired domestic tensions among Canadians amid much political turmoil.

Emissions Impossible

CO2 Green House Warming

Justin Trudeau continually touts that Canada is on track to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Of course, all of the politicians claiming that they can meet this target will not be in politics long enough to execute the plan. In fact, numerous studies have found that it will be impossible to meet net zero by 2050, no matter how much governments spend on climate change.

The Fraser Institute found that Canadian workers will be paying C$8,000 annually by 2050 to meet these impossible targets. The institute believes that as a result of the climate agenda, real GDP will decline by 7%, and income will decline by 6% per worker, resulting in 250,000 fewer jobs.  Simulating the Emission Reduction Plan (ERP) into 2050 would, at best, lead to a 70% reduction in CO2 emissions.

The study then began looking at the carbon tax. Forcing companies to pay C$400 per tonne could decrease emissions by 68%, but tripling that figure to C$1,200 would only result in an additional 6% decline. These measures could cause GDP to fall a massive 18%, with incomes declining by 17%.

Kenneth Green in “Rapid Decarbonization of Electricity and Future Supply Constraints” noted that Canada simply does not have the infrastructure to support these lower carbon goals. “Canada would need to rapidly build infrastructure on a scale never before seen in the country’s  history,” Green stated. He estimates that the nation would need an additional 684 TWh of electricity by 2050 to meet demand. Green believes Canada would need around 16 new nuclear power plant facilities, which he estimates would take 112 years to complete.

Wind power is not a reliable alternative. Canada would need to build 575 new wind-power installations, which would take an estimated 1,150 years to complete and 1 million hectares of land. Solar is not an option. Canada would need 840 solar generating stations and 1,680 years to complete by 2050. Green did not factor in the regulations and legalities in approving such projects.

Some have deemed the Paris Accord and other nations heightened pledges “emissions impossible.” There is no feasible way for nations to simply eliminate carbon emissions. Yet, that will not prevent governments from extorting the people for a scheme that is doomed to fail.

$50M for Climate Change in Palestine?


Posted originally on Feb 17, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Climate Actisits

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin found $20 BILLION in public funds that his predecessors from the Biden era of perpetual spending purposely wasted. Project Veritas first discovered the deliberate wasteful spending of the EPA through investigative journalism. A former EPA staffer called the agency’s spending under Biden akin to throwing gold bars off the Titanic. Zeldin is demanding that recipients return the “gold bars.”

“The “gold bars” were tax dollars, and “tossing them off the Titanic” meant the Biden administration knew they were wasting it,” Zeldin shared on X after posting the “extremely disturbing” Project Veritas video. “[T]his scheme was the first of its kind in EPA history, and it was purposefully designed to obligate all the money in a rush job with reduced oversight.”

Hillary Climate Change

It is far easier to retain funds than it is to retrieve them. Zeldin recently saved the government $50 million on a grant to the Climate Justice Alliance, a group that believes “climate justice travels through a Free Palestine.” Why did a government agency provide this alliance with $50 million? A portion of the grant was intended for a CONCERT to promote awareness for climate change in Palestine. The group claimed the Trump administration is simply spreading “misinformation” that “aims to scapegoat non-white and non-rich people.”

Even the weather is racist and sexist, according to the far left. Everything can be chalked up to climate change. Hillary Clinton said that the weather was hurting women in Ukraine, so it is on course for a leftist agency to say they need funds to fight climate change in Palestine. It is absolute lunacy, but a portion of the population nods in agreement and believes that privileged Americans should pay to somehow fix the nonexistent situation.

Let’s take a closer look at this organization that claims a just transition cannot happen through charity alone. As noted on the group’s website: “We must organize to move money out of the old economy using both public and private vehicles. We must weaken the power of the speculative markets, extreme energy, worker exploitation, extraction and militarism while strengthening economic and political democracy, placing power in the hands of the people.” Do you see a conflict of government interest here?

The EPA is one of countless agencies that have been weaponized by the left. For years, the people have paid into these ANTI-AMERICAN agencies that were openly working against the democracy of America in favor of globalist pursuits. The show is over.

Only 5% of Members Met UN Climate Pledge Deadline


Posted originally on Feb 13, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Climate zero co2

Only 10 of the 195 nations on board for the Paris Agreement have met the February 10, 2025, deadline to release their “nationally determined contributions” (NDCs). These NDCs are presented as detailed blueprints for how nations will continue cutting emissions to meet each five-year global stocktake (GST) goal. The problem is that 95% of nations have no plan in place.

The Paris Agreement began ten years and trillions of dollars ago, but no noticeable progress has been made. The United Nations admitted back in 2019 that the Paris Agreement or Accord was destined to fail. Even if every pledging nation met 100% of the UN mandates, they would still fall 2/3 short of meeting their targets. They admit that even if every country involved in those accords complied with their pledges between now and 2030, temperatures would still rise by 3 degrees Celsius by 2100. It is astonishing that nations continue to buy into this agreement that is destined to fail because the targets were created with no regard for naturally occurring weather cycles.

Yet, 195 nations agreed to continue tackling this losing battle. The GST is split into three phases: data collection, technical assessment, and consideration of outputs. Governments and climate scientists have compiled over 170,000 pages spanning over 252 hours of meetings and the final advice from the United Nations is always the same – nations are failing to meet their objectives.

Of the 10 nations who complied with the latest deadline, the US and UK were the only G7 nations to submit plans. The US submitted its plan before Donald Trump pulled out of the Paris Agreement. This is yet another example of how the US has been funding globalist initiatives.

Global Warming Cavemen Climate

Brazil, the United Arab Emirates, New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, Andorra, Ecuador and Saint Lucia also met the deadline, but the UN has warned that the UAE, Brazil, and Switzerland have plans that are “not compatible” with meeting the 1.5C target by 2035. The UN said that the UK is potentially on the right track if it agrees to INCREASE SPENDING to help other nations meet their goals, a role formerly filled by the US.

“Without dedicated efforts to ramp up finance, you’re not going to achieve the triple [renewable] energy target, so that’s definitely something that needs to be reckoned with in the global stocktake outcome,” the Centre for Science and Environment told Carbon Brief.

Anyone can make a pledge and pander to the climate social justice warrior crowd. That does not mean they intend to follow through. The pressure is placed on the nations who can pay up and are expected to cover the costs for others. Numerous nations who have been touting their lofty climate goals like Australia and Canada plan to release their GST plans after elections as it a bargaining chip. The goal can never be achieved but that will not prevent the United Nations from squeezing every last cent out of member nations.

EPA Threw Away BILLIONS Ahead of Trump Presidency


Posted originally on Feb 13, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

Project Veritas revealed that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) deliberately gave away BILLIONS in funds prior to Trump taking office. “Now it’s how to get the money out as fast as possible before they [Trump Administration] come in … it’s like we’re on the Titanic and we’re throwing gold bars off the edge.” – Brent Efron, EPA Advisor.

There is still outrage surrounding the elimination of the EPA. People do not realize just how much money this agency blew through on absolutely nothing. Biden admitted that the Inflation Reduction Act, the most expensive spending package in US history, was about CLIMATE CHANGE at its core and had nothing to do with inflation. Those at the EPA called the act “Biden’s climate law” and were eager to spend the proceeds. Efron told an undercover journalist that they were preparing to spend the money as quickly as possible right up until inauguration day.

The EPA was aware that Trump would likely eliminate their impractical agency. “We gave them [nonprofits] the money because… it was an insurance policy against Trump winning. Because they aren’t [a government agency], they’re safer from Republicans taking the money away,” he said. The EPA awarded nonprofits between $50 and $100 million EACH toward the end of Biden’s presidency.

The Biden Administration effectively permitted this agency to “throw gold bars” off the edge of the Titanic and needlessly spend public funds. All of these investigations lead to the same conclusion. The government provides nonprofits with a large sum and those agencies then funnel the money to smaller agencies, whether its related to climate change or funding terrorism. This is precisely why Trump attempted to freeze all federal funds upon taking office.

The Climate Change HOAX

Gore Hair Dryer

COMMENT: Hi Martin,

In terms of trends determined by higher highs and lower lows, such as your analysis of the Democratic party in the US, stats like the crazy one below could probably tell a similar tale pertaining to the global warming fraud.

Just yesterday, a friend and I considered that winters in this part of Arkansas are colder than when I was a kid. While I don’t have the data to back it up, anecdotally, the winter trend is towards colder norms rather than warmer norms. Four years ago was a record low (in my lifetime) at 12 below.

Regards,

REPLY: We have a lot of weather data, and this entire claim of global warming and that humans are the cause of climate change is not only stupid, it is arrogant. There is no evidence of what these people claim. The English Court ruled against Al Gore and his movie that his climate film presented nine ‘errors’ and was thus inappropriate. The climate zealots want to ignore that ruling and pretend it never happened.

1970 2006 Time Climate Change

Here is the data from New York City with records back to 1869. There is a normal climate cycle, and nothing shows any dramatic change in trends. We are headed into colder weather, and let us hope that the rise in volcanic activity does not produce one or two VE7 eruptions. Our computer warns that we are also at rise of a rise in volcanic activity. That can block the sun and result in a volcanic winter, so you should have food stashed for crops will fail during a volcanic winter, and people will starve.

There is a cycle to everything, including climate!

Canada Created its Own Trade Barriers


Posted originally on Jan 21, 2025 by Martin Armstrong 

CanadaTradeRestrictions

Stéfane Marion, chief economist of the National Bank of Canada, has urged the Canadian government to reconsider their own trade barriers amid criticism of Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) stated in a 2019 study that Canada’s own restrictions are “regarded as the most comprehensive analysis of internal trade barriers.” Rather than tariffs, Canada’s eagerness to attract foreign investments has proved to be a barrier for domestic corporations.

Canada has trade agreements with over 40 nations as it has sought to attract international capital since 1989 since its first free trade deal with the USA. “[C]ompared to an ambitious and successful international trade strategy, progress in reducing internal trade barriers across Canada has not kept pace,” the IMF noted. The astounding amount of red tape has simply made it more expensive for Canadian companies to conduct business. Some estimates believe non-geographical internal trade barriers in Canada are equivalent to a 21% tariff. On the contrary, those barriers amount to a 3% tariff for the United States.

Marion noted that interprovincial trade relevant to international trade has declined from 50% to 40% in recent decades. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business has long fought for government to stop taxing its own corporations into oblivion. “It’s ridiculous that it’s still easier for Canadian small firms to do business overseas or across the border than within their own country,” said Chorine Pohlmann, CFIB’s executive vice president of advocacy.

Canadians are ready to welcome fresh leadership after Trudeau’s failure. Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs on Canadian goods would be disastrous for both economies. However, the Canadian government has shot itself in the foot with policies aimed at boosting international trade while ignoring domestic objectives. We have seen that happen countless times throughout history when nations are so focused on world trade that they end up dampening their own competitiveness. Canada must consider the steps it can currently take to boost business domestically without punishing companies from operating within Canada.
