Inevitably... Canada's version of Amelia appears... and welcome!
Canucks are always a bit slow on the uptake.

VIDEO: Shiny Pony doesn't matter any more
If you pay attention to the entertainment news (as opposed to real news), you may have noticed that Blackie McBlackface, former Prime Minister of All Canuckistan, was invited to deliver a speech on "soft power" at last week's New World Order gabfest in Davos. He either was accompanied by or (more likely) accompanied Katy Perry, who apparently is a celebrity -- something that Shiny Pony is no longer.
Unlike the speeches given by President Trump and Canuck PM Marx Carnage, video and transcripts of Junior's speech are less than prominent in the meeja. The reason could be that he did nothing other than repeat the usual liberal platitudes. [At least he didn't lead a chorus of "Kumbaya"! Ed.] Or it could be that no-one bothered to record whatever he said. Here's why.
Be that as it may, Walt's Canadian readers have some questions.
Who invited Trudeau fils to Davos... and why? After all, he's no longer emperor, prime minister or even governor of the Great No-longer-white North. If he wasn't on the arm of Katy Perry, he'd be nobody!
Who paid for his trip? Did he get to fly in the Canadian Air Force Cessna with Mr Carnage? Did the WEF gang put him up in a VIP suite? And again... why?
And finally, how does Katy Perry feel about "soft power"? Most women prefer... errr... something a little bit harder... don't they?
Ed. just found this video clip of Rebel News' Ezra Levant daring to ask questions like that, right there in the streets of Davos. What kind of answer do you suppose he gets?
Not surprised, were you?

VIDEO: Straight from the horse's mouth... or some other orifice
This week Marx Carney, Prime Minister of All Canuckistan [except maybe Alberta! Ed.] and a leading member of the Davos gang, went cap in hand to Communist China to beg for relief from punishing on Canola and other Canadian exports.
By agreeing to lower tariffs on Chinese sparky cars from 100% to 15% -- another nail in the coffin of Ontario's auto industry -- he got the Chinese to agree to start importing Canola (formerly known as rape🞿) again.
Mr Carnage was overjoyed, as is apparent in this video clip, seen across the Great No-longer-white North yesterday evening.
Did you catch that play? Yes, folks, it's another milestone on the road to the New World Order, of which Mr Carnage is one of the apostles. Very unusual, though, for one of George Soros' acolytes to say that part out loud!
🞿 Before political correctness, Canola oil was known as rapeseed oil So much rape was grown around the prairie town of Tisdale SK that it was known, back in the day, as "The Land of Rape and Honey". Really.

Walt's predictions for 2026
Ready for New Year 2026? You'll go to bed tonight, and when you wake up in the morning (DV) everything will be new, improved and wonderful! Well... not everything.
That politicians will still be lying to us in 2026 is a prediction Walt can make with absolutely certainty of being correct. That some of those politicians will be assisted by the (((controlled media))) is another. And that there will be a deluge of AI-generated fake news is yet another.
Should we go beyond that? Why not just rest on our laurels? At the end of 2025 Walt predicted that at least two of Demented Joe Biden, Justin "Blackface" Trudeau, and Francis the Pope of the New World Order would be out of office by the end of the year. We hit the trifecta on that one, 3 for 3, lifetime pct .987.
Sadly, the successors to Trudeau and Francis have proved to be little better than their predecessors. Marx Carney and Pope Leo XIV are almost as liberal as their predecessors, and still leading their constituents down the path to One World and social, political and financial ruin. About POTUS, we can say only that his first year has been a disappointment.
A few things seem likely to happen in 2026 so we might as well list our fears, viz.:
* The AI bubble will not burst, but will start to deflate. (That's not a bad thing.)
* There will be some kind of deal to end (or suspend?) Russia's war against Ukraine. The Ukraine will get screwed. See "Selling out Ukraine to appease Putin would be a huge mistake", WWW 28/12/25.
* Attendance at mainstream Catholic churches will continue to fall freely as the Church gets gayer and gayer. Catholics who keep the Faith will turn in even greater numbers to chapels run by Traditional Latin Mass groups such as the FFSP and SSPX.
* "Trump tariffs" will be overturned by SCOTUS. President Trump will promise new and improved tariffs which will make Americans 1000% richer than they are now, if they vote Republican.
* The mid-term shit-hammer will fall hard on the Republicans, as Ukrainian-Americans and disaffected conservatives will stay home in drove.
* Venezuelan President Maduros will be out of office by this time next year.
* The mayors of at least two American cities will, without pushing from Washington, call on their police forces (and possibly the National Guard!) to tear down the verminous encampments and clean up the streets of their shit-hole cities.
* The world will not be a better place on 31 December 2026 than it is today. We can only hope and pray it will be not much worse.
Walt, that's enough gloom and doom for one day. Please don't write anything more until next year! Ed.
OK. Happy New Year anyway. Walt

VIDEO: The Canadian ad featuring President Reagan that President Trump doesn't want Americans to believe
Dear American readers, How do you feel about all the tariffs which President Trump has slapped on America's trade partners, particularly Canada? Are they making America stronger? More prosperous? Great again? Is the price which you personally are paying for protectionism worth it?
President Trump is in a snit because the government of Ontario put together a TV spot, using clips from a speech televised in 1987, in which the last conservative president to occupy the White House says that tariffs are not helpful but hurtful to the American people. Check this out.
Yesterday, while en route to gabfests with assorted Asian leaders in Malaysia and South Korea, POTUS said that, because of the ad, which he called "fake", he's ending all talks with Canada over the ad. But wait (as Vince Offer used to say), there's more. "Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act," he told the meeja on Air Force One, "I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now."
What did you see in the ad that could have triggered the Donald's ire? To me, it sounds as if President Reagan is in favour of free trade, and against tariffs, which he called "an outdated notion." Did I not hear correctly?
What's the point of getting even tougher on America's biggest trading partner? With Canada already under a US base tariff rate of 35%, the impact of President Trump’s latest gut-punch isn't immediately clear.
The 35% rate doesn't apply to most Canadian goods because of an exemption for products and shipments made within the rules of the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). Steel and aluminum products aren't covered by that waiver, and Canadian-made cars and trucks are only partially eligible for exemption from the 25% tariffs on most foreign autos.
Marx Carnage, the prime minister of Canuckistan, has been engaged in protracted talks with the US of A to lower the levies and has already lowered his elbow to knee-level. [I assume Canuck readers will get that one. Ed.] After speaking to Mr Carnage, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said the province will pause its ad campaign tomorrow, now that the ads have been seen by millions of Americans, including President Trump, when they interrupted the World Series.
But the damage has been done. The clash has reignited uncertainty between two partners that exchanged $900 billion in goods and services last year and have closely interwoven supply chains for major industries. IMHO, the ongoing trade war benefits no-one, no-one. Let the man who authored The Art of the Deal get on with some sesrious deal-making.

Book review: "The Jewish War" + BONUS VIDEO
Yesterday was the day fixed by President Trump by which Hamas had to accept his plan to bring an end to the unpleasantness in Gaza... or else!
While we wait for all hell to break loose. let us consider the words of Jewish Roman historian Flavius Josephus ben Matthias, in The Jewish War.
1950 years ago, Josephus wrote his contemporary account of the great Jewish rebellion against Rome. The insurrection began in 66 A.D. and lasted seven years.
The Middle East described by Josephus is perfectly familiar -- a politically fractionalized land populated with a humble of ethnic and religious groups, including Jews, Arabs, Egyptians, Syrians, Greeks, Italians and a tiny community of Christians.
Each detests the others. Extreme political and theological views prevail. Terrorism and assassination are commonplace. Alliances are momentary. Grudges, personal. And neither colonial subjugation nor local autonomy suffices to keep the peace.
The political events are familiar too. Rome first intervened in the region as a peace keeper, brokering a dispute between Seleucid Mesopotamia and Ptolemaic Egypt. Later the Middle East appeared vital to Rome because Roman trade routes passed through the region and because of the Parthian threat to the empire's eastern frontier. The Romans were lured into deeper military and political involvement, and this triggered continual insurrections.
The rebellion of 66 A.D., however, did not begin as a war of national liberation. It began as communal rioting in the seaport town of Caesarea -- Greeks verus Jews over an empty lot next to a synagogue. This inspired sympathetic rioting in Jerusalem, and a ham-handed Roman attempt to quell the disturbances worsened them instead.
The result was one of those great wallows siege, massacre, treachery, persecution, revenge, plunder, and self-destruction to which the Middle East is so often host.
The rising in Jerusalem set off a reaction among the non-Jewish inhabitants of the region, who indulged themselves in wild pogroms, with killings taking place as far away as Damascus and Alexandria. Roman forces were not sufficient to quash the rebellion. Jewish forces were not sufficient to defeat the Romans in open combat. Guerilla warfare ensured, with predictable consequences to the populace.
The Romans were noted for vigorous foreign policy responses. The Emperor Nero sent Vespasian and three legions to pacify Judea. Using a great deal of slaughter and some tactics, Vespasian drove the rebels back to the environs of Jerusalem. He was prevented from ending the war, however, by political confusion at home. Sound familiar? Nero was ousted and three worthless and short-lived emperors followed within the year.
The Jews made use of this breathing space by engaging in urban warfare with themselves and committing all conceivable and some inconceivable atrocities upon their co-religionists. Vespasian himself was finally proclaimed emperor by the Roman army, and the war was resumed under the direction of his son Titus.
After a prolonged and disgusting siege, Jerusalem was taken. And after another prolonged and even more disgusting siege, Masada, the last rebel stronghold fell. The Temple was destroyed, the Jewish upper classes were dispersed, and a Roman army was permanently stationed in Judea. Even then the peace did not hold, and rebellion would break out anew during the reign of Hadrian.
Normally the patterns of history are reassuring. But in The Jewish War, the shock of recognition is just a shock. Here, sixty generations ago, is nearly the same cast of characters engaged in exactly the same obsessive, vicious, and fatal behaviour for the same terrifying reasons on the same cursed, reeking, ugly chunk of land.
Who fails to learn history is doomed to repeat it. But was seemed doomed to repeat this history anyway.
This review is adapted from "The Two-Thousand-Year-Old U.S. Middle East Policy Expert", by the late, great P.J. O'Rourke, in a little-known libertarian magazine called Inquiry, c. 1979. While you're letting that sink it, here's a very à propos musical interlude.

Canucks, read before you vote! Another warning about Mark Carney
It is now less than 24 hours before Canadians go to the polls to elect a new (Conservative) government (as Walt recommends) or re-elect a tired, old (Liberal) one.
Walt apologize for not having written more about the 2025 election. It seemed as if not many of our readers were interested. Sleepwalking towards a fate worse than becoming the 51st state. In a last-minute effort to warn Canucks of the danger of voting to re-elect Blackie McBlackface's chosen successor, I refer you to Canada's Greatest Crook: How Canada Was Sold Without a Vote, by Adrian C. Spitters, CFP®.
Mr Spitters is not just a CFP® but, as his writings reveal, a gold bug, but that's OK because in his article, he is right on target about the Liberals' "five-year plan of deception, offshore manoeuvres, and political installation executed without consent to erase Canadian sovereignty." You need a LinkedIn account to follow the link, so, for those who don't have such, here are the key points. The emphasis is Walt's.
As Canadian citizens, we are terrified that after nearly a decade of Justin Trudeau dismantling our nation from within, his replacement has already been chosen.
Not by the people. Not by voters. But by his globalist allies at the World Economic Forum and the central banking cartel that pulls their strings. That man is Mark Carney. And if you thought Trudeau was bad, Carney is the endgame.
We warned about this. As co-authors of the number one international best-selling book, It Starts With Gold, we laid out how Carney was not rising; he was being installed. Groomed by financial elites to take down Canada from within, his backers include the World Economic Forum, global banking syndicates, and supranational asset managers who treat sovereign nations as investment vehicles.
[This] is not a theory. It is a calculated series of events that have unfolded with surgical precision over five years.... [Canada has] a massive trade surplus. We are rich in gold, water, oil, timber, and uranium. And yet, we are drowning in debt, told to eat bugs, and scolded for using gas-powered vehicles.
From Trudeau to Carney: Phase One Ends, Phase Two Begins
Why?
Because this is no longer about left versus right. This is globalism versus sovereignty. Control versus freedom. And Trudeau was just phase one.
Phase two is Carney.
The media will push him. The corporations will back him. And the same voters who fell for Trudeau’s smile may fall again for Carney’s credentials.
We are here to issue one final warning.
If Carney remains Prime Minister, we are not just losing a government. We are losing Canada.

Election 2025: Are the Liberals going to fool Canadians a fourth time?
By the time you read this, Walt will be in Canada. [Too bad he didn't make it for last night's beyond-thrilling game between Washington and the Habs! Ed.] His mission is to find out whether the Canucks can really be so dumb as to re-elect the Trudeau Liberals, now fronted by Mark Carney, the member of the Laurentian elite who is already being called the Manchurian candidate.
Comment posted by "Linda1000" on Blazing Cat Fur: It's like the alzhiemer crowd is just walking in a trance to mark their X for Carney. Dear readers, you can post your comments on WWW, subject to moderation by Ed. of course. Just click on the headline, and this post will open in a new tab, with the comments window open.
Today's Toronto Sun editorial endorsing the opposition Conservatives, catalogues the many instances of Liberal corruption, incompetence, negligence and plain studity, including these.
* Out-of-control spending has massively increased the size and cost of the federal bureaucracy. * Government spending on outside consultants skyrocketed to more than $15 billion in the 2022-23 fiscal year.
* Sustainable Developoment Technology Canada, the jolly green slush fund, violated its conflict of interest policies 90 times, and awarded $59 million to 10 projects that were not eligible and frequently overstated the environmental benefits of its projects.
* Meanwhile, Canada's armed forces were shamefully nickel-and-dimed, and defence spending became an international embarrassment.
There's more, lots more misgovernment, but we only have so much space. The point is that the leader of the Liberal government may be different, but his cabinet isn’t. As the Tories' TV commercials say, it's the same old Toronto-Ottawa-Montréal liberal elites, with a new(ish) puppet out front.
Some might also say their branding is new. How do you like "Canada strong" for a persuasive election slogan? Eh? Agent 3 guesses that the Gliberals think Canuck voters have forgotten "The land is strong", a slogan coined by the late Rainmaker, Senator Keith Davey (L) for the 1972 federal election which resulted in a very slim victory for the Libereals, led by... wait for it... Trudeau -- Pierre that is, not Justin.
Maybe that's the problem, a kind of collective amnesia which has caused Canadians to forget, in less than three months, the endless stream of scandals, boondoggles and incompetent decisions inflicted on them for nearly ten years by the government of Trudeau the Son.
Mr Carney is being hailed as a miracle worker who will single-handedly sweep aside all the problems faced by the Great No-longer-white North. But his cabinet cabinet is populated with the same people, reappointed by him when he assumed office, who brought us such examples of misrule as:
* The ArriveCAN scandal, which in 2020 saw almost $60 million spent on a sole-sourced contract for an app that's now not used and which a private developer said could have been developed over a weekend for a fraction of the price.
* A massive increase of immigration, legal or illegal, by millions of foreigners who cannot or will not assimilate into Canadian culture, with no plan to house or otherwise accommodate them, other than to put them up in hotels at taxpayers' expense.
Until just this week, when the Liberals' lead in the opinion polls narrowed somewhat, all predictions have been that the man with the widow's hump would storm to victory, in spite of his total lack of charisma or ability to tell the truth about anything.
Mr Carnage's lead in the polls is slowly shrinking. Some models now suggest that a hung parliament is a strong possibility. But it could be worse than that for the poster boy for the WEF. His political inexperience, arrogant behaviour, massive ego, aloofness and reportedly "volcanic temper" have been on full display during the campaign.
Don’t be surprised, then, if Monday's election result resembles the narrow victory of Emperor Trudeau the First in 1972, or... many Canadians hope and pray... a win, however narrow, for the Conservatives, whom Walt endorses.
Canadians have had a chance to get to know the white knight who has entered the lists to save the Liberals from electoral disaster, and find that the more they know him, the less they like him. He did poorly in the two leaders' debates. He has swiped ideas from the Conservatives, kept most of Junior's Trudeau’s loony social and economic policies, and has suggested almost nothing new.
Surely Canucks, distracted though they may be by Trump's trolling and the hockey playoffs, aren't going to be fooled a fourth time! Stay tuned!

Canadian political leaders debate -- what they REALLY said
We don't like to interrupt the Easter Triduum with worldly affairs, but since the Liberal government of Canuckistan has chosen to schedule the only face-to-face election debates with its opponents for the middle of Holy Week, we must devote today's post to the correction of misinformation, disinformation and false impressions created by the version of the English-language debate broadcast by the lickspittle, bought-and-paid-for "mainstream media".
Dear Canadian readers, what you saw on Thursday evening was not the real verbal exchange between Prime Minister pro tem Mark Carnage, Cuckservative leader Pierre "Pipi" Poilievre, and pinko socialist Sikh leader Jugmeat Singh. The "debate" you saw was generated by AI to make it appear as if Canada's "leaders" have at least the first clue about how to fix the No-longer-great No-longer-white North. Here's a summary of what they really said.
Dear Canadian voters, the advance polls are open today and (sadly) on Easter Sunday. Get out there and vote for the least of the three evils. [He means Poilievre. Ed.]

Canadian voters: Don't say you weren't warned!
Dear Canadian friends, please don't be snowed [Geddit? Ed.] by all the paid advertising --
and propagands from the lickspittle media, who are also bought and paid for -- about the new Dear Leader of the Liberal Party and unelected Prime Minister of Canada.
His apologists are trying to paint him as a soft, sensible, middle-of-the-road statesman, an ultra-nice Canuck kid with no agenda other than saving the Great No-longer-white North from the evil Orange Man. Walt calls BS on all that!
The truth about Mr Carnage's plans to finish the job started by the Trudeaus (père et fils) and make Canada a part of the Davos gang's New World Order are to be found in his own words in his book Values.
Values reads like a sermon from a high priest of globalism... which, come to think of it, it is. It's "polished, preachy, and packed with ideas that should send shivers down the spine of anyone who cares about Canada’s economy, especially Western energy producers.
"Writing as the former Bank of Canada governor and a darling of the Liberal elite, Carney pitches a vision of 'sustainable finance', net-zero absolutism, and heavy-handed regulation. To the National Citizens Coalition, it's clear: this isn't a roadmap to prosperity, it's a wrecking ball aimed at the heart of Canada’s resource sector and the West's economic lifeline."
Those quotes (and the graphic) are taken from "Carney's 'values' the wrong ones at the wrong time", posted on Blazing Cat Fur today. Opening the link will take you to the original article by the National Citizens Council's Alexander Brown, which appeared in the Western Standard yesterday. Thanks to all concerned.
DEAR READERS, please pass this on! Click on the headline to make this post appear in a new tab. Then copy the URL and send it to all the Canadians you know. The rule of the loony Liberal globalists has to stop!

Canadian election: Whose side is Trump on?
For our readers who don't live in the People's Republic of Canuckistan, here's a quick guide to what's happening in the general election, set for April 28th.
On the left in the photos below -- but not so hard left as his loony colleagues Steven Guilbeault and Chrystia Freeland -- is Mark Carney, leader of the Gliberal Party of Canada.Unlike the other two, Mr Carnage has never been elected to anything. But was Governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England. He is a banker, and a member of the WEF liberal elite.
On the right -- but not so hard right as his former colleague Maxime Bernier, now leader of the People's Party of Canada -- is Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party of Canada. Mr Poilievre is a much-elected politician and former member of the cabinet of the much-unloved Steven Harpoon. This is his first test as leader of the Cuckservatives.
M Poilievre dislikes being referred to as "Pipi" (American readers note: it's pronounced "pee-pee".) He enjoyed being called "Canada's Donald Trump"... until recently.
For you see, gentle reader, the vast [or at least half-vast. Ed.] majority of Canucks dislike President Donald J. Trump. Intensely. Their fear and loathing of the Donald [That would make a good book title. If only HST were still alive. Ed.] has intensified since January 20th, owing to Mr Trump's straight-faced suggestions that Canada shoujld become the 51st of the Excited States of Canada, and his nonsensical campaign of tariffs to make it so.
The Liberal propagandists who run the state-owned CB C (Canadian Broadcorping Castration) as well and other lickspittle media (CBC) have put together a surprisingly effective TV commerical in which they juxtapose quotes from President Trump with quotes from Pipi, which shows them to be saying basically the same things.
They're painting M Poilievre as "just like Trump", and it seems to be working. The Tories have plummeted in the polls while the Liberals have risen, and now lead by around five points. Having a new leader to replace the hated Emperor Trudeau has helped the Grits, but it's the comparison with POTUS that bites the Cuckservatives in the ass.
A few days before the election was called, President Trump made public out his unflattering opinion of M Poilievre, saying he is "not a MAGA guy." Pouncing on the chance to distance himself from Mr Trump, Pipi responded on X, "Mr President, it is true. I am not MAGA. I am for Canada First. Always. Canada has always been America’s best friend & ally. But we will NEVER be the 51st state."
President Trump attacked M Poilievre during a nearly hour-long interview with Ben Domenech, editor-at-large at the British magazine The Spectator. He warned Pipi not to make the mistake of thinking he will "be the tough guy"” and "knock out Trump. They all make that mistake… They end up getting the hell beat out of them."
Will saying that President Trump doesn't like him help the Cuckservative leader at the polls in which Canada's relations with the US of A be the chief issue? Was Mr Trump trying to give M Poilievre a boost by putting daylight between them? Is a puzzlement, especially given his Big Friendly Phone Call with the new Liberal leader yesterday..
Prime Minister Carnage and President Trump held their first-ever conversation on Friday, after which the former announced that they had agreed to comprehensive negotiations... after the upcoming federal election. Presumably if M Poilievre wins all bets are off.
"The spirit of the call was both cordial and focused on making progress," Mr Carney told the assembled lapdogs at a campaign event in Montréal later in the day. You could almost hear the smirk on his face as he said, "The president respected Canada’s sovereignty today, both in his private and public comments."
Until yesterday, Mr Trump repeatedly trolled former PM Blackie McBlackiface, calling him "Governor Trudeau" of the hypothetical 51st state. But after the call, POTUS repeatedly referred to Mr Carnage as "prime minister".
And there was more (comparative) sweetness and light. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, President Trump said he will "absolutely" follow through on his threat of large-scale tariffs if Canada take actions against the American economy. Yet he also toned down his language toward Canada, who he has previously accused of ripping off and "cheating" the US of A on trade but declined to say so again.
"I'm not referring to Canada," he said pointedly, "but many other countries have been taking advantage of us... We had a very good talk, the prime minister and myself, and I think things are going to work out very well between Canada and the United States."
What's going on? Why the sudden change of tone? Are yesterday's statements meant to help Mr Carnage by showing that Mr Trump can get along with him? Or to hurt Mr Carnage by showing that Mr Trump can get along with him? How would I know? President Trump's logic is too deep for me. I need my hip-waders.

Canuckistan's WEF prime minister sends in the clowns
"Carny", also spelled "carnie" or "carney", is North American slang for a person who works in a carnival, traveling fair, or amusement park. That includes the barkers, the hucksters, and... the clowns.
Way back in 2012, when Canadian Liberals were beating the bushes for to find a leader to succeed the failures that were Stéphane Dion and Michael Ignatieff, a reporter asked Michael Carney if he were interested in the job. Mr Carney replied, "Why don't I just become a circus clown?!"
Not quite 13 years later, when it began to look as if Prime Minister Blackie McBlackface would lead the Gliberals to electoral disaster, Mr Carney was asked again. This time he put up his hand (as he himself phrased it in a presser today) and said, "YES!" And on March 9th he became both ringmaster of the circus and the star clown... and, coincidentally, the unelected Prime Minister of Canuckistan.
Today, the Right Honourable Mark Carney decided that the time had come to send in... or, more accurately, lead in the clowns. "Send in the clowns" is a theater reference describing what must be done if a show isn't doing well. They do at a rodeo when a rider is in danger of being trampled by a bronco or gored by a bull.
Today, knowing that his party wouldl be defeated in a vote of conference if Parliament were allowed to resume its legislative duties, as was supposed to happen tomorrow, Mr Carney besought the Governor General to call an election. She agreed. Canucks will decide on April 29th whether they can stand another four years of Liberal DEI, ESG, eco-alarmism, wokeism and general ridiculousness.
Mr Carney will run in the Ottawa-area riding of Nepean, represented in the last parliament by Indo-Canadian Chandra Arya, whom readers may remember [or not. Ed.] as the first casualty of the rigged Liberal leadership race (WWW 26/1/25). Mr Arya has been told he is no longer welcome in the circus tent.
Mr Carney wants to be remembered by voters as the mastermind who, as Governor of the Bank of Canada and then the Bank of England, steered those countries through troubled economic waters. He is more likely to be remembered as a certified (and certirfiable) eco-wienie whose record suggests that he will be driven by climate policy, attempting to save the planet from burning to a cinder.
As the United Nations' special envoy on climate action and finance [Wut? Ed.], he founded and co-chaired the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), resigning on 15 January, the day before he threw his hat into the Liberal leadership race.
Carney the Eco-Warrior. Ah yes, that's it. Mr Carney's mission, as he sees it through pink-tinted glasses, is to reduce global emissions by promoting ESG -- "environmental, social, and governance" -- principles, which he thinks should be used to evaluate companies and their investment decisions. As one of the Boys of Davos, Mr Carney knows that ESG is the best way to save the planet and stay rich at the same time.
His commitment to such principles has raised many eyebrows in the Paranoid States of America, where Mr Carney and one of his GFANZ executives were interviewed for several hours last year the House Financial Services Committee. The committe been actively scrutinizing ESG issues, with Republicans focusing on potential conflicts with shareholder interests and antitrust concerns, while also investigating potential collusion among financial institutions and activists whom the committe called a "climate cartel".
If he gets to keep "the best job in the world" (the words of Trudeau II in a note left on his desk), Mark Carney is likely to be a compleat ESG prime minister.
In his speech after winning the Liberal leadership, he said he had, "A plan, a plan, a plan…that makes us an energy superpower in both clean and conventional energy…a plan that creates one Canadian economy, not 13, because in Canada, we are stronger when we are united."
That's the snake oil he's selling, but everything Mr Carney has said and done so far suggests not only that he can't unite Canada's provinces to create an energy super-economy, but that he's not actually interested in doing so, not now, not ever.
His insistence on keeping in place an industrial carbon tax and an emissions cap -- both devised by Junior and his nutty Environment Minister, Steven Guildbeaut (now shuffled into a less visible portfolio) -- doesn't inspire much confidence in his energy superpower plan. Given his longstanding ESG obsessions, all evidence suggests that Prime Minister Mark Carney could be even more dedicated to strangling Canada's resource economy than was Prime Minister Blackie McBlackface. Too bad for Canada!

Mark Carney, in a nutshell (geddit?)
After reading yesterday's lengthy post of Dr Jordan Peterson's thoughts about the "new, improved, even woker" Prime Minister of Canuckistan, Agent 6 thought we should run a recommendation for further (and easier) reading. So we commend you to "Mark Carney is wrong about everything", by Fraser Myers, Deputy Editor of Sp!ked, 11/3/25. Subheadline: "Canada’s new unelected prime minister is living, breathing proof that technocrats can’t be trusted."
Walt's advice to long-suffering Canucks: Don't let TDS delude you into voting for this puppet of George Soros, Klaus Schwab and the WEF elites. He didn't come back to Canada for you!
Key excerpt: "The new Canadian PM’s CV reads like a parody of an archetypal Davos man. He has been governor of the Bank of Canada, governor of the Bank of England and a United Nations special envoy on climate action and finance. Before he entered the public eye, he worked for Goldman Sachs – in London, Tokyo, New York and Toronto. He has degrees from Harvard and Oxford. Yet he has never once held any form of elected political office. He does not even currently hold a seat in Canada’s House of Commons."

Canada's "new" WEF-backed Prime Minister
Walt was in Canada over the weekend for the coronation of Mark Canada as successor to Blackie McBlackface as leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, and therefore as Prime Minister of Canada.
One contrarian is terrified, not thrilled, by Mr Carney's agenda for Canada. That would be Dr Jordan Peterson, who, the day before the coronation, wrote "Mark Carney doesn't value a prosperous Canada", National Post, 8/3/25. Subtitle: "This would-be planetary saviour has no respect for free markets." It's a long article, worth reading in its entirety, but these excerpts will give you the gist of it. Dr Peterson's words are in purple, and those of Mr Carney (quotes from his book) are in bright Democrat blue. Any emphasis is Walt's.
That's the way the parliamentary system works. If you lead the government party, you're the Prime Minister, regardless of the fact that you've never been elected to anything. A safe seat in the House of Commons can be opened up for you later. Worked (twice!) for William Lyon Mackenzie King, who "loved his mother like anything / kept her tied up with a piece of string" (very old skipping rhyme).
The Canadian Broadcorping Castration, the state-owned broadcaster, wasted nearly three hours of listeners' (Sid & Doris Bonkers, of Dildo NL) time with a series of talking heads trying unsuccessfully to create an air of suspense, followed by a 45-minute history of Canada recited by former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, who was there for most of it.
Then the final result of the leadership "contest" was announced. Mr Carney garnered a mere 85% of the votes cast by the party faithful. He promised to do better next time, his goal being to get 99%, as they do in socialist democracies. It wasn't a surprise. Everyone knew that the former Governor of the Bank of Canada and Bank of England (successively) had the puck nailed to his stick by his friends in the global elite.
Mr Carney then attempted to deliver a "fighting speech", without revealing when the fight would start. His oration, part of which was delivered in halting French, consisted of platitudes and hockey metaphors -- "Elbows up!" -- but was devoid of any substance, such as a plan to get Canada out of the trade war.
There was no indication that Mr Carney intends to do anything other than stay the course with the globalist-environmentalist agenda outlined in his (?) book, Value(s) [sic], published in 2021, which has been praised by liberal, one-world eco-wienies across Canada and the European Disunion. One of them is seen here driving Mr Carney (in an EV, no doubt) to a meeting of the rulers of the New World Order.
One contrarian is terrified, not thrilled, by Mr Carney's agenda for Canada. That would be Dr Jordan Peterson, who, the day before the coronation, wrote "Mark Carney doesn't value a prosperous Canada", National Post, 8/3/25.

Dr Peterson's words are in purple, and those of Mr Carney (quotes from his book) are in bright Democrat blue. Any emphasis is Walt's.
It is most definitely the case — and this is a fundamental conservative or even classic liberal conviction — that free societies and markets operate within a broader framework of values. In the West, for better or worse (and certainly for comparative better) that framework is Judeo-Christian, religious and cultural in its essence — a framework that has established the principles of "self-evidence" referred to so famously by the authors and signatories of the American Declaration of Independence.
These include the propositions that all people have intrinsic worth, made as they are in the image of God; that each person owes all others the due that such worth necessitates, including the responsibility to trade in goods, ideas, cooperation and competition, honestly and fairly, and with an eye to mutual success; and that all of us, our leaders included (and perhaps first and foremost) must pay obeisance to what is truly transcendent and divine.
This is the framework that Carney purports to replace, even though it is not clear that he understands this, or that he has developed any understanding whatsoever of the culture he wants to reshape from first principles.
What are his suggestions, regarding such replacement? This is where the rubber hits the road or, more accurately, where the train flies off the track ... Carney betrays his alliance with the worst particularized ideas of the last twenty or thirty years, and the even worse generally radical intellectual presumptions of the last century.
“Our goal has been to put in place the information, tools and markets so that every financial decision takes climate change into account — to create a financial system in which a company’s contributions to climate change and climate solution are fundamental determinants of its value. So that value reflects values.
"At COP26 in Glasgow, we delivered twenty-four major reforms to transform the information, tools and markets at the heart of finance. These include climate stress testing, net-zero transition plans and clear, comparable and decision-useful climate disclosure so that financial markets can manage risks and seize opportunities in the climate transition."
The consortium has stated that there "must be an average 28 per cent reduction in the number of flights across C40 cities." How might that be enforced? No more flights for the ordinary person (an overstatement: the C40 nature-worshippers will allow the peasants one short-haul flight every three years). They also mention "reducing and eventually nearly eliminating the need for car ownership."
Ever wonder where the electricity for your soon-to-be mandatory electric car will come from, given the woeful inadequacy in that regard of the current grid, and the impossibility of rectifying that, before gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles are banned? No matter! There is no reason to presume, as you have so far, that you are entitled to a vehicle of your very own. Problem solved!
And even if you are one of the fortunate few with a car — serious limitations will be imposed on the number of miles your peasant hide is allowed to travel, with equally serious restraints on velocity and road access.
Make no mistake about it, people. Those who promise, like Carney, to save the planet, while waving evidence of its forthcoming demise over your heads like the sword of Damocles, will use the purported seriousness of the crisis to rule over every conceivable aspect of your life — for the moral reasons of “value” that cannot be properly computed, in Carney’s estimation, by the flawed free market system.
A radical decrease in the availability of meat and dairy — preferably a complete turn to a plant and even perhaps insect-based diet, as mused by the WEF. Three new articles of clothing a year, maximum.
There is virtually no bad idea recently promoted by the top-down globalists (as alluded to earlier) that Carney has not championed — worse; not merely championed, as an acolyte or ally, as in the case of the hapless narcissist he is attempting to replace, our very own Justin Trudeau.
Trudeau was little more than a globalist shill, shiny and attractive though he may have been. Carney is no such mean thing; no mere WEF infiltrator. He is instead a veritable globalist author, master-planner and leader, as he says (insists upon) himself:
Value(s) is, in truth, one of the shallowest books I have ever read, and I have read many, both shallow and deep. It contains no original ideas whatsoever, while the ideas it does contain, however few in number they may admittedly be, are literally the worst that have been formulated by the worst of thinkers in the last few generations; even in the last century or two.
Mark Carney has failed, therefore — and dismally; spectacularly — in his attempts as a thinker, as well as an international leader. His practical multinational ventures have been recently revealed as the empty vessels they most truly are.
In closing, a warning to Canadians, hoodwinked into believing that Carney’s much-vaunted international experience makes him capable; makes him someone able, even less convincingly, to stand up to our erratic American compatriots to the south. Mark Carney, formerly of the Bank of England, has the patina of foreign-bestowed competence. In truth, however, he is a man with all the flaws of Trudeau, and that’s saying something.
However, in his admitted networking, managerial and administrative prowess he presents far more danger. Our hapless previous Dear Leader was at least hamstrung in his pretension by his incompetence. Carney is as addled in his values as his predecessor, but much more efficient and unwavering in his implementation.
If you don’t want Canada to be a self-immolating martyr-state, subject to the whims of an economic order increasingly dominated by the coal-burning titans of India, China and the rest of the BRICS; if you don’t want your every move and every decision evaluated by the top-down tyrants of the new global order — then you bloody well better think twice about who you are going to vote for when push comes to shove for Canadians in the next six months.
Whatever Canada’s values might be, they best not be the shibboleths of false virtue, intellectual pretension, and well-camouflaged oh-so-virtuous totalizing tyranny put forth by the newly coronated dear leader of the appalling Liberal party.

VIDEO: Why does DJT have Canada in the cross-hairs? One theory
It's the drugs, stupid! That's the thesis of Samuel Cooper, an investigative journalist and author of Willful Blindness: How a network of narcos, tycoons and CCP agents infiltrated the West. I haven't read this book -- just heard of it now, in fact -- therefore can't recommend it, but Mr Cooper certainly puts forward an interesting... and very scary hypothesis.
In this intereview with Daniela Cambone, Mr Cooper says, "There are very deep concerns that Canada is being used by China in a very sophisticated economic and truly criminal way." And that's the reason, he says, for President Trump's recent rhetoric about tariffs and Canada becoming the 51st state.
It's not a tactic to get Canada to renegotiate the trade deal with the US of A, he says, but a ploy to curb the massive illegal fentanyl trade originating from Canada. "China ships the precursors to the West Coast of Mexico and the West Coast of Canada," he says, "so Vancouver is used as a hub for these precursors." He also details how elite Chinese politicians involve Canada in illegal money laundering, while Canadian politicians turn a blind eye to it.
In just a couple of hours, President Trump is scheduled to have a telephone conversation with Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of All Canuckistan. Walt wonders if this is what they will talk about! Will we ever be told? Don't bet on it.
Thanks to Agent 6 for the lead.

Mark Carney explains why he wants to lead the Liberal Party of Canada
The lists have closed. There are seven -- count `em 7 -- deluded Liberal dwarfs who want to lead their party to certain electoral defeat, and have somehow scratched up the 50,000 Northern Peso entry fee. To stay in the race, they will have to come up with another C$50,000 -- $35,000 in real money -- by next week and another C$250,000 after that.
The three leading Prime Minister wannabes are (in order of likely finish -- you read it here first!): Mark Carney (pictured below), Chrystia Freeland (Trudeau's bumgirl), and, in show position, Karina Gould, former government house leader who was forced to read Ms Freeland's latest economic mis-statement after the latter declined to do so.
The remaining four are (in no particular order): Chandra Arya (featured in WWW video, 9/1/25); Jaime Battiste, a certified and certifiable Indian First Nations person; Frank Baylis, an anglophone Quebecker who actually knows how to run a business; and Ruby "Slippers" Dhalla, who represents the Ontario riding of Bramladesh. Walt's advice: Bet the exactor with Carney + any of these four.
Why Mark Carney has thrown his top hat in the ring after denying any interest for many moons is a mystery. Where his entry fee comes from, along with a massive advertising budget (the Liberal Party imposes no limits on such) is, of course, no mystery at all. Walt's man in Ottawa says he was put up to it by George Soros and Klaus Schwab, since he is a former governor of two national banks (Canada and the UK), an approved enviro-wienie, and a true believer in the New World Order.

Two more Canuck Liberals run away from party leadership
The field of masochists vying to win the booby prize of leader of the Liberal Party of Canada got smaller today as two more prominent Grits balked at getting into the starting gate. Philippe Champagne, the Minister of Industry in Junior's cabinet, Christy Clark, the former premier of British Columbia both bowed out.
The other is Mark Carney, an Oxbridge type who still carries around the silver spoon which was in his mouth at birth.
Their departures cast a spotlight on candidates' French language skills, and their ability to organize support in Québec, a province that's critical to the Gliberals' electoral fortunes.
M Champagne -- a likeable and not hopelessly incompetent gars de chez nous -- said during an armchair talk in Toronto that he plans to focus on ensuring the government [Is dis a government? Ed.] is ready to protect Canadian industry from the trade threats posed by President-Elect Trump. "It was probably the most difficult decision of my life," said Ti-Phil, "but I think it was the right one at the right time. There are many ways to fight for Canada."
Ms Clark said in a statement to her supporters that Blackie McBlackface had called too short a leadership race to allow her to mount a successful campaign and that she did not develop her French skills well enough to be a strong candidate.
"I have made the difficult decision to step back," she said. "While we have come a long way, in a short time, there is simply not enough time to mount a successful campaign and for me to effectively connect with francophone Canadians in their language. I have worked hard at improving my French but it’s not where it needs to be today."
Yesterday's revelation that that Ms Clark had actually held a Conservative Party membership card for a couple of years didn't help either.
That leaves two -- count `em, 2 -- possible candidates with any name recognition, neither of whom is fluent in la langue de Molière... ou de Chétien. The first is the lovely and talented Chrystia Freeland, the Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister until, just before Christmas, she quit before Blackie could fire her. "These people are impossible!", she said. "I'm going home to my children!"*
The other is Mark Carney, an Oxbridge type who still carries around the silver spoon which was in his mouth at birth.
Mr Carney has been -- and "has been" is an appropriate phrase -- Governor of the Bank of Canada and Governor of the Bank of England. A wag [Dogbert? Ed.] has suggested that he probably thinks the vacant position is that of head of the Federal Reserve. Why else would he choose to announce his possible candidacy on The Daily Show?
Neither Ms Freelove nor Squire Carney have said definitely that they're ready, aye, ready to grasp the nettle that is the prime ministership of the Great No-longer-white North. So far, they're just teasing, something in which the lovely Chrystia has form. Both say they will have more to say "later".
* Note from Ed.: I didn't have time to check the date of that quote. Seems to me I read it here some time ago. But never mind. The deadline looms.

CORRECTION: Trudeau did NOT resign
Although you couldn't see it for fog, the sun rose this morning, as usual, over Cape Spear NL, the most easterly point in the People's Republic of Canuckistan -- Justin Trudeau, prop.
Yes, Virginia, yesterday's smarmy and self-serving speech notwithstanding, Blackie McBlackface is still Prime Minister of the Great No-longer-white North. If a document -- e.g. an immigrant visa for an Islamic terrorist or a cheque to the President of Rumbabwe -- requires his signature, he'll still be there at Rideau Cottage.
"But," you may ask, "didn't Elon Musk say 'Trump won, Trudeau resigned!'?" Indeed he did, but he was only half-right.
Desperate to get rid of Little Potato, hopeful Canucks didn't listen carefully to his words of farewell. What he actually said was, "I intend to resign as party leader [and] as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust, nationwide, competitive process."
Geddit? Not "I am resigning today" but "I intend to resign...after..." Future tense throughout. The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau is still Prime Minister of All Canuckistan, and there's not a damn thing any of you frostbacks can do about it.
To ensure that corruption business will be carried on as usual until such time as he actually resigns, Junior took the precaution of asking the compliant Governor-General (whom he appointed), to prorogue (read: suspend) Parliament until March 24th, at which time a new session will begin. Until then, there will be no annoying questions asked or challenges made to the supremacy of M Trudeau, his Liberal Party, and the liberal elites who run what is left of Canada.
The Big Question to be answered is: who will replace the Greatest Narcissistic Procrastinator in Canadian history. Walt will now give you the morning line and predict the likely result of the race nobody wants to win. Early entries are:
Mark Carney, former Governor of the Bank of Canada and, more recently, the Bank of England. Born with a silver sppon in his mouth, educated at private schools, member of the Toronto liberal elite. Has the backing of Big Business and (especially) the Big Banks, since he's "one of us". Like former Liberal Leader Michael "Iggy" Ignatieff, but without the charm. Vulnerable to the sasme attack ad: "He didn't come back for you!"
Chrystia Freeland, rebarbatvie former journalist whose farewell party at the Groan and Wail was held in a phone booth. Most recently Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister (an office not recognized in Canada's constitution) until she quit last year when told she was about to be demoted. Another resident of Toronto's toney Rosedale enclave. Has Ukrainian heritage but the Ukrainians never vote Liberal. Speaking style reminiscent of an Anglican missionary declaiming the Articles of Faith to a congregation of fuzzie-wuzzies. Will have the backing of the Sikh bloc as the most easily manipulable. Oh, she's a woman too, the darling of the feminists, both female and male.
Dominic LeBlanc, the latest to hold the dreaded Finance portfolio, because no-one else would take it after Ms Freeland quit. Son of a Governor-General, friend of the Trudeau family since childhood. "I've known Justin since he was a baby!" Bilingual (unlike the other two) and from New Brunswick/Nouveau Brunswick so won't upset the Québécois or the Toronto elites. Congenial (read: bibulous) and "a safe pair of hands", meaning he can be trusted to do nothing and depart gracefully following the spring election disaster.
And the winner will be... Dominic LeBlanc. Since the Gliberals face certain defeat in the election which will be called within days of the opening of the new session of Parliament, none of the other candidates will be trying too hard. They will be focusing on what happens after M LeBlanc resigns. He, however, will be happy to retire with the title of Prime Minister -- he's been everything else! -- and the pension and other perqs that go with it.
You read it here first. Walt's lifetime pct: .987.

"Climate Barbie" quits to make room for Klima Ken
So, farewell then, Catherine McKenna, aka "Climate Barbie". You were one of Just In Trudeau's first diversity hires. To signal his virtue as a feminist by having as many women as men in his cabinet, Mr Socks appointed her in 2015 as Minister of the Environment.
Ms McKenna led the fight against global warming and, after the name change, climate change. She oversaw the introduction of the Canadian government’s "carbon pricing plan" (read: carbon tax), which was so appreciated by overtaxed Canucks that she was in danger of losing her Ottawa Centre seat in the 2019 election. During the campaign some unappreciative individual -- a right-wing white misogynist, no doubt -- had the gall to paint a graffito on the window of her Ottawa riding office.
I believe the miscreant meant to write "count", but made a spelling mistake. Obviously a product of Ontario education. No matter. Ottawa is a civil service town, and ya vote for the one who signs your paycheque, so Climate Barbie held onto her seat. However, in the ensuring cabinet shuffle, Blackie McBlackface promoted her downwards to the post of Infrastructure Minister -- a position in which she could be seen but, mercifully, seldom heard.
And now she is gone, or will be as of tomorrow. According to Canadian Press, Ms. McKenna wants to spend more time with her three children and "devote her professional energies to the fight against climate change." Wonder if Greta Thunberg knows about this?
Ms McKenna's departure opens the Ottawa Centre seat for Mark Carney, a former Governor of the Bank of Canada, who left the Great No-longer-white North some years ago to head up the Bank of England. Having proved to them that "Canadian competence" is an oxymoron, Mr Carney returned a few months ago and made a very public pronouncement of fealty to the Liberal Party of Canada at its policy snorefest last April.
Mr Carney didn't actually say he wanted to run. Oh my, no! According to M Trudeau, his appearance at the policy convention was simply a matter of Liberals tapping his expertise on economic policy and on climate change. "We're very pleased," he said, "to have someone of the stature of Mark Carney who has been working very, very hard on, among other things, the intersection between the global economy and the fight against climate change."
While he waits, Mark Carney is warming a chair (and drawing a considerable emolument) as... wait for it... United Nations Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance. Note the order: "climate action" first, "finance" second.
Make no mistake. Mr Carney -- let's call him "Klima Ken" -- is another leftist climate zealot. He is more dangerous than Climate Barbie or her erstwhile boss because he actually has a good education and more than a handful of smarts. He know exactly how to manage a technocracy that will further erode the rights and liberties of the people, all in the name of saving the Earth.
Will the Canadian sheeple recognize the danger and see to it that the Trudeau Liberals are turfed out in the general election expected this fall? If they do, it won't matter if Mr Carney wins Ottawa Centre. In fact, he'll look almost as pretty as Climate Barbie on the other side of the aisle. And no-one will ever call him a "count".
