In the summer of 2022, Canada's ultra-woke Gliberal government started solving the crisis of illegal immigration by dumping some 4000 bogus refugees "from the USA" -- the illegals who (with the help of the RCMP) crossed the border Roxham Road -- into Niagara Falls (the nicer one, on the west bank of the river) an other unwilling border cities (Brockville, Cornwall and Windsor).
They were housed "temporarily" in hotels, with room service laid on, at a cost of over C$220 ($158 in real money). The officially welcome (but really UNwelcome newcomers) also receive -- present tense because they are still there! -- free medical care, transportation, education and social services, all paid for by long-suffering taxpayers.
The cost to said taxpayers has been enormous. Hoteliers have had to turn away tourists because all their room were occupied, and/or tourists refused to stay in "refugee hotels" turned into dumps by the sand people. See "Ungrateful 'refugees' destroy Canadian hotels", WWW 3/8/18, includes video.
Yes, that was in 2018. The same thing started happening in Niagara Falls in 2022 after Toronto said it just couldn't take any more "temporary" residents. In this video of last October, a minion of Marx Carney's government claimed there are no more refugees in hotels, so the cost of hosting illegal migrants isn't an issue any more.
Sorry, lady, but it IS an issue. They may not be in hotels, but they are still in Niagara Falls. According to Agent 3, who sent us the link to the video below, a white pedestrian picking his way through the trash on Lundy's Lane would find himself in the minority.
The cost to the munipalities (the City of Niagara Falls and the Regional Municipality of Niagara) of providing education and social services for the illegal immigrants is enormous, probably not far off the billion dollars mention in the title. Schoolrooms are full of kids -- including "unaccompanied minor" males with moustaches and beards -- who can't speak English and are socially, if not mentally retarded.
Hospital ERs are full. So are the walk-in clinics. The illegal migrants have brought with them not just their gold rings but their third-world diseases. Charitable agencies that support vulnerable people are overwhelmed too. Check out Project Share (Agent 3 writes) and other food banks. Almost all the people doing the work of collecting and distributing food are white, whereas those getting their groceries (and complaining that they don't like the food) are mostly, errr, darker.
It's no wonder, then, that a group of Niagara Falls men have stood up on their hind legs to say that it's high time the "temporary" residents went back where they came from. The protesters in this next video are advocating for what sociologists call "remigration".
As you can imagine, these guys are being called "racists", "neo-Nazis", yada yada yada. Walt says, you can hardly blame them. If my city tax bill went up by 10% overnight, I'd be protesting too!
If you live down by the Falls and want to make your voice heard, you'll find a useful link in the video. Good luck!
"Welcome to the future of Canada!" So said Michelle Rempel Garner, the Conservative Member of the Canadian Parliament for Calgary Nose Hill (AB).
In what she herself called a "Cassandra speech" to the House of Commons on December 6th, Ms Rempel Garner warned against the debt crisis caused by unrestrained government spending, and the eneregy crisis caused by the continued importation of oil from hostile foreign powers. (Hello, Saudi Arabia, to name just one!)
We've heard those arguments before, and the honourable member is right in what she says. But the shocker -- something I'd barely heard of and hadn't considered -- is the threat posed by failure to regulate the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Machines -- computers -- which can think for themselves and speak for themselves are being built right now!
In her address, Ms Rempel Garner reads a speech which was written by a computer, using software which is freely available (she tells you where to find it) with no more human input than a few words about the topic and position to be taken. Pretty soon, she warns, people will no longer have to think for themselves, and will become mere cyphers, even more useless than predicted by George Orwell and Aldous Huxley in their dystopian novels.
Agent 6, who sent us the link to this video (thank you, 6!) calls the speech "very moving [and] passionate... talking of bleak times ahead thanks to Trudeau and Bill C-32. Haven’t heard many speeches in Parliament like this one during the last seven years."
Bill C-32 is titled "An Act to implement certain provisions of the fall economic statement tabled in Parliament on November 3, 2022 and certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on April 7, 2022". Sounds like pretty dull stuff, but the importance of Ms Rempel Garner's point -- that legislators are failing in their duty to protect Canadians from a very bleak future -- cannot be overemphasized.
Note to American readers: Canada has the misfortune to be ruled by Blackie McBlackface and his gang of venal and incompetent cronies and sycophants. Americans are no better off. For "Canada" and "Blackie McBlackface", please subsitute "The USA" and "Joe Brandon", and try to tell me the same warnings don't apply to you... in spades!
Canadians generally are reputed to be mild-mannered, inoffensive, slow to anger, and quick to apologize. "Sorry" is the second-most common word in the Canuck vocabulary, after "eh".
For this reason, debates in Canada's Parliament, although sometimes raucous, are subject to rules of parliamentary order, which include the prohibition of "unparliamentary language". Words which may not be uttered in the House of Commons or Senate include the nine Anglo-Saxon monosyllables, plus "Justinflation" and "Chief Walking Goose" (a reference to the Prime Minister being so full of shit that he can't walk.)
Yesterday, the Hon. Michelle Rempel Garner, the Conservative Member of Parliament for the Alberta riding of Calgary Nose Hill [Seriously? Ed.] couldn't stand the Liberal bullshit any more, and said so during the House of Commons Question Period. Listen up.
Being a good Canadian, Ms Rempel Garner apologized immediately. Many Canucks feel the apology was unnecessary. Me too! Tell it straight, Michelle, and tell it again!
