To our Canadian readers and friends...

Walt, Poor Len [and Ed.! Ed.], who loved the Canada we knew before 20 April (aka 4-20) 1968*, extend our sympathies over the loss of your country. 

Please try to have a happy Canada Day in spite of everything.

 

* For those who don't recognize the date, 20/4/68 is the date on which Pierre-Elliott Trudeau, leader of the Liberal Party (aka Natural Governing Party) of Canada was sworn in as Prime Minister. The sheeple of Canada apparently weren't listening when Emperor Trudeau I (as he was later known) said, "You won't recognize Canada when I'm done with it."

Trudeau's use of Emergencies Act against Freedom Convoy deemed ILLEGAL by Canada's Federal Court of Appeal

Cazart! It took nearly four years -- things never happen quickly in the Great No-longer-white North -- but the truth has come out! Canada's Liberal government has lost its appeal against a ruling by the Federal Court that found the invocation of the Emergencies Act by the despised Prime Minister Trudeau during the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests was unreasonable. Honk honk honk!

The decision of the Federal Court of Appeal -- second highest to the Supreme Court of Canada -- follows a ruling by the Federal Court in 2024 that the invocation of the act in response to the protests was unreasonable, unjustified, and violated Charter rights. 

In the 178-page decision, released on Friday, Chief Justice de Montigny said he was dismissing all the appeals against the lower court’s decision. "We are therefore of the view (like the Federal Court) that, on the basis of the record, Cabinet could not reasonably come to the conclusion that existing provincial capacity and authority could not effectively address the situation,” he wrote. 

"We are of the view that Cabinet did not have reasonable grounds to believe that a national emergency existed, taking into account the wording of the Act, its constitutional underpinning and the record that was before it at the time the decision was made,” he continued. 

Following the lower court's decision, then deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland (see WWW passim) vowed her government would appeal the ruling. Her boss, Blackie McBlackface, invoked the Act on St. Valentine's Day of 2022, to end the protests by freedom-loving truckers that had gridlocked Ottawa’s downtown streets for almost a month. The act gave the feds the power to compel tow truck companies to co-operate with local police to clear blockades, mark parts of the downtown core as no-go zones and freeze the bank accounts of some protestors. 

Canadian civil liberties organizations, including the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA), argued the federal government went beyond its powers. Christine Van Geyn, litigation director at the CCF, said they were thrilled with Friday’s decision, which represents a "complete repudiation" of Shiny Pony's position on the invocation of the act. 

"This is an affirmation from the court that these are fundamental freedoms that Canadians have that were violated by the freezing of bank accounts, by the invocation of this act, by the by the banning of assemblies," said Ms Van Geyn. "We’re thrilled with the decision, and we think the court got this right."

The CCLA said they were pleased with the court’s decision and the reasons given by the Federal Court of Appeal. "You’ll recall that in order to invoke the the Emergencies Act, the Cabinet must be satisfied of two things; that there are threats to the security of Canada, and that the existing laws of Canada are insufficient to deal with those threats so that the emergency is a national emergency," said Ewa Krajewska. "Neither of these legal thresholds were met in this case."

Both organizations said they will be prepared to go to the Supreme Court of Canada, should the federal government decide to take the case to the highest court. A minion of the Public Safety Minister [sic] said the federal government now led by Marx Carnage (who was in China sucking up to the Commies when the decision was released) is reviewing the ruling and assessing next steps.

Walt has questions about those "next steps".

Will the people who supported the truckers financially and were "debanked" in consequence get their savings (confiscated by the Liberals) refunded?

Will the truckers whose vehicles -- the tools by which they earn a living -- get their were seized get them back? 

Will the alleged leaders of the protest, demonized as criminals by lickspittle Ontario criminal courts, have their convictions overturned or at least receive pardons?

And how about a sincere apology to all victims of the tyranny of "liberal democracy"? Walt reckons chances of that happening are slim and none. Lifetime pct .989.

At last! Canada gets rid of feminist phoque-up Chrystia Freeland

So, farewell then, Chrystia Freeland, former Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of Canuckistan and protégée of Blackie McBlackface, who was PM until la Freeland stuck a shiv between his shoulder blades about an hour before she was due to deliver a budget last December.

The lovely and fragrant Ms Freeland, who has for nearly a decade,been the target a lot of snark in this space (click here for an example) for a decade, been appointed as the next Warden of Rhodes House and CEO of the Rhodes Trust, the charity responsible for the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship programme at the University of Oxford.

At the moment, she is (technically) still a Member of  the Canadian Parliament. Her virtual defenestration of Emperor Trudeau II got her re-elected in the November 2025 election. However, her campaign to wrest the leadership of the Liberal Party from Junior came up short when the British-Canadian Magus, Marx Carney, garnered some 90% of the votes of the party faithfaul, compared with around 5% for Ms Freelove.

For some reason, Mr Carnage declined to invite her back into the cabinet. Instead, she was made "Special Representative for the Reconstruction of Ukraine". Canadians never got a chance to learn what that was all about, since (according to Walt's impeccable Ukrainian source), Prime Minister Volodymyr Zelenskyy, upon hearing the news,telephoned Mr Carnage to say Ukraine was in enough trouble already, so, "Please stop helping, already!"

So farewell then, Your Wokeness. I hope you enjoy living in the Caliphate, and that Allah will step lightly on your head. Don't slam the door on your way out.

"King or chaos!"???

Let's talk some more about the latest loony left mantra "No kings!" 

In "We are nearing the end of a natural political cycle" (WWW 16/6/25), I quoted from C. Northcote Parkinson's highly recommendable Left Luggage (Houghton Mifflin, 1967). 

The author of The Law argues very persuasively that there is a natural political order of things. A nation goes from chaos -- warring tribes from which a unified nation emerges -- to monarchy, for it is the monarch, the king, who creates the nation.

Then, as the size of the aristocracy grows, the numbers of the ruled increase as well. That's simple biology. Kings and commoners all have children! As the numbers swell, the distinction between the rulers and ruled tends to get blurred, and the lower classes eventually get to share in the power. This phase we call democracy.

Focus shifts from the individual -- whether he be king or capitalist -- to the community, who expect to share not only power but wealth. The nation moves toward the theoretical equality (or mediocrity) we call socialism. Community, the common weal, the commune. Out of that philosophy comes dictatorship, Marx's "dictatorship of the proletariat".

Then what happens? Dictatorship leads to chaos, as it did in the Soviet Union and sub-Saharan Africa. For order to be restored, out of the chaos must arise... wait for it... a new king! And so the cycle repeats itself. 

We close (for today) with another quote from Left Luggage, at pp. 190-191: 

Political progress must remain a myth. It is true that a democratic society can be made more egalitarian, but this hastening of the process merely shortens the life of the democracy, making dictatorship the more imminent. 

The theory that freedom broadens down from precedent to precedent has no basis in historical example. The pursuit of democracy does not end in perfection, but in that choas from which dictatorship offers the only means of escape. No form of government can last forever, and democracy does not even, in practice, last for long.

Footnote: About that headline... "King or chaos!" was the 1935 campaign slogan of William Lyon Mackenzie King, the longest-serving prime minister of Canada. The electorate chose Mr King, and he remained PM until finally retiring in 1948. 

The democratically elected governments that followed his have become progressively more "progressive" (read: socialist) to the point where, under Emperors Trudeau, père et fils, Canada has descended into such chaos that it is now known as Canuckistan. A king is wanted!

Canadian election: Best comment seen on "X" so far

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.

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 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.

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.

Liberals boot Indo-Canadian MP from leadership race

The CBC -- Canada's answer to Pravda -- reports today that Nepean MP Chandra Arya, featured in this video on WWW, says he's been informed by the Liberal Party of Canada that he won't be allowed to run in the leadership contest to replace Prime Minister Blackie McBlackface. 

In a statement posted to "X", Mr Arya said "While I await their official communication, I am carefully considering my next steps. This decision raises significant questions about the legitimacy of the leadership race and, by extension, the legitimacy of the next prime minister of Canada." 

Mr Arya does not say, nor does the Gliberal Party, whyfor his entry into the race to the bottom weas denied. Surely it has nothing to dfo with his vow to dump the monarchy if elected, or his statement that he doesn't speak French and doesn't believe it will matter to French-speaking Canadians.

More likely, the reason is that Mr Arya is just a bit too Indian (turbans, not feathers) even for the Liberals. In 2023, he sponsored a petition calling on the Liberals to reconsider plans to introduce a foreign agent registry in response to serious allegations of foreign interference in Canadian politics. The registry legislation has since passed, but it's not yet up and running. 

Mr Arya's ties to India have raised eyebrows amid worsening diplomatic relations. Last summer, he travelled to India and met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. A statement from Global Affairs Canada at the time said Arya "travelled to India on his own initiative and was not representing the Government of Canada."

Mr Arya's premature ejection leaves one other Indo-Canadian MP in the race, viz. Ruby "Slippers" Dhalla, mentioned in "Mark Carney explains why he wants to lead the Liberal Party of Canada", WWW 24/1/25. She is, of course, the dark horse. [Couldn't resist it, eh. Ed.] Adjust your betting accordingly.

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.

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. 

Another MUSIC VIDEO: Trudeau resigns, the Trump Effect

Only a few minutes after we posted "Bye-bye, Miss Canadian Pie", we started getting suggestions for other "Glad Trudeau Is Gone" videos. Agent 3 sent along the link to this one, by Quidan Productions, who introduce it thus: "Whether you're a political junkie, a comedy fan, or just here for the music, this satirical song is bound to entertain! It's a lighthearted roast of policies, politics, and personalities with a sprinkle of MAGA magic."

 

Excellent Sinatra-style music, fine animation, and nice credit to President-Elect Trump for his part in hastening the departure of Canada's. Worst. Prime Minister. Ever!

MUSIC VIDEO: Bye-bye, Miss Canadian Pie

The intended resignation of Justin "Little Potato" Trudeau as leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister of All Canuckistan has pretty much broken the Internet, or at least the Canadian part of it. Reaction has been 99.99% positive... like this...

There has been a lot of wittier, more original stuff too. Walt particularly likes this Hoser Gang parody of Don McLean's "American Pie". 

Sure and it's an early favourite for the Wally Award for Best Music Video of 2025.

Footnote: Further to our post about the Liberal ladies who want nothing more to do with Blackie McBlackface, we note today's announcement by the Honourable Steve MacKinnon, who has been in charge of the Ministry of Employment, Workforce Development and Labour (previously known as the Ministry of Labour and Seniors) [Eh??? Ed.] for less than a year, that he won't enter the race to replace Junior. He will continue in his positions -- he is also Minister for Seniors -- until the Trudeaumaniacs are booted out of office, likely this spring.

Memo from Ed. to Walt, not for publication: What have I told you about long, compound-complex sentences?! If you can't do better than the first sentence of the Footnote, I'll be forced to plug in Hal and let him/her/it deal with you!

What happened to Trudeau's female cabinet ministers?

When Canadians, in a fit of national stupidity, elected Justin Trudeau as Prime Minister in 2015, they were not unsurprised when "Junior" announced that, as a "male feminist", he would ensure that 50% of his cabinet were women... or identified as women... or something woke like that.

When Little Potato announced a few days ago that he "intends" to resign as Dear Leader of the Liberal Party, and as Prime Minister of All Canuckistan, the talking heads at the CBC and the rest of Canada's lickspittle media pronounced themselves delighted that three heavyweight femals ministeres would be strong contenders to carry on his woke crusade to destroy the Great No-longer-white North.

The three were (note tense -- explanation follows) Chrystia Freeland, Mélanie Joly, and Anita Anand. This weekend, two of them announced that they would be joining Dominic LeBlanc on the list of those who would not be contending for the poisoned chalice. The only one left is Ms Freelove, who is yet to make up her mind. Undoubtedly she is having a rethink, as well she might, when you consider what happened to all those other Karens who jumped on Trudeau's pink bandwagon. 

First there was Jody Wilson-Raybould, who is not just a woman but a BIPOC. She was initially elected as a Liberal, and served as justice minister and attorney general from 2015 to 2019, then (very briefly) as veterans affairs minister and associate national defence minister. Her time at the trough ended when she resigned in response to certain ungracious and untruthful statements from Himself concerning the SNC-Lavalin bribery scandal.

Jane Philpott, a medical doctor who had been demoted from the Health portfolio to President of the Treasury Board, resigned in sympathy and was expelled from the Liberal caucus. She quit because "I have lost confidence in how the government has dealt with this matter and in how it has responded to the issues raised."

Then there was  the Honourable Catherine Mary McKenna, aka "Climate Barbie". She was the Minister of Environment and Climate Change [sic] from 2015 to 2019, but couldn't stand the heat (geddit?) and was demoted to Minister of Infrastructure and Communities from 2019 to 2021. 

She has now retired from politics, but emerged from obscurity this week to explain Canadian politics to viewers of BBC News.

One of the two who has decided to throw her hat out of the window rather than into the ring is Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly. She told the meeja on Friday that she wanted to focus on the "threat posed by potential American tariffs. She then hied herself off to Washington for a jolly external affair with the Donald.

Yesterday, Transport Minister Anita Anand, another BIPOC -- another Indian, but not a Canadian one like Ms Wilson-Raybould -- announced that she too will not run in the Liberal Party's ongoing leadership contest to replace Prime Minister McBlackface. Nor will she stick around long enough to face an angry electorate when Canadians go to the polls, probably in the spring.

The amazingly versatile Ms Anand held several cabinet portfolios since she was elected in 2019. First she was Minister of Public Services and Procurement. Then she became the second woman ever to serve as Minister of National Defence. In one of her first acts in that capacity, Ms Anand transferred the investigation and prosecution of sexual misconduct cases within the Canadian Armed Forces into the civilian justice system. That's all ye know and all ye need to know.

That leaves the Liberals with only two declared leader wannabes. Both are male. One is an Indian -- turban, not feathers. The winner will be declared on the 9th of March. Walt thinks the 15th would have been the better date.

VIDEO: Canada's Liberals let non-citizens vote; here's what happend

Not many of our readers, not even the Canucks, will know about Nepean ON. It's a suburb of Ottawa, the capital of Canuckistan, a bedrooom community of minions who commute into Boredom-on-the-Rideau every day to do the will of Emperor Trudeau II.

For that reason, the riding (Americans read: electoral district) of Nepean is, for the Natural Governing (read: Liberal) Party, one of the safest seats in all Canuckistan. It was represented by a Liberal even in the dark days following the 2011 federal election, when feckless Michael "Iggy" Ignatieff led the Gliberals to their worst showing in history. They won only 34 seats, a distant third behind the Conservatives and socialist NDP, thus losing their position as Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition.

The response of the Laurentian elites was to make it easier -- much easier -- for anyone who might be persuaded to support the Liberal Party to become a member thereof. The rules were changed to allow anyone over 14 to vote in the party's nominating conventions, without regard to citizenship or lack thereof. You didn't have to be able to understand English/français. You didn't even have to pay for a party card. All you had to do was say you supported the party.

Thus it was that Liberal Associations from coast to coast to coast were flooded with new members, the majority of whom, in some cases, weren't Canadian citizens or even permanent residents. Busloads of them were bused in [what else? Ed.] to the white-minority suburbs of Toronto and Vancouver, as well as paler places like Nepean, to vote en bloc for a new and improved (read: woke) leader. 

The elites said, "Let there be sunny ways!", and lo, Justin Trudeau emerged from his father's mansion to lead the faithful back to the promised land... and the pigs -- the new DEI pigs -- back to the government trough.

One of the troughers was Chandrakanth "Chandra" Arya, who rode Blackie's coat-tails into the House of Commons in the 2015 federal election. The Member of Parliament for Nepean has been sitting there ever since, warming the back benches and hoping the current Parliament will last long enough for him to collect his indexed pension.

Mr Arya's prospects dimmed noticeably with the Emperor's announcement that he might resign (WWW 7/1/25), ahead of a massive anti-Trudeau vote which could occur in the spring. For the Gliberals to survive, they need to find a new leader whom the angry voters will not revile quite so much. 

Alas, there is an understandable reluctance on the part of putative candidates to throw their chapeaux into the ring. As reported here yesterday, Dominic LeBlanc, who was Walt's early line favourite to win, was smart enough to pull out before he was nominated. The only others with substantial name recognition -- Mark Carney and Chrystia Freelove -- are increasingly coy about their intentions.

So... step forward Chandra Arya, ready to save Canada (and, incidentally, the Liberals) from the fate of the American Democrats. Oh my goodness!

The mind boggles at the prospect of a "gummint" headed by Mr Chandra, but in a voting system [Is dis a system? Ed.] where poll officials are not allowed even to ask about voters' status in Canada, anything could happen.  

Walt wishes Mr Chandra many good lucks, by Jove! But we will not open a new book on the Liberal leadership contest until such time as there are three credible candidates... not including him.

2024 Wally Awards: Worst living Canadian Prime Minister - VIDEO

Agent 3 read "2024 Wally Awards: Worst Living President" and called to remind us that since the passing, last March, of the Rt. Hon. Byron Muldoon, there is no need to ask for nominations for the captioned Award, as there is only one. For reasons which this video makes obvious, we therefore present the Wally to Little Potato, as he is called by his former 2IC.

We wish our Canadian readers and friends every success in making 2025 a truly happy New Year, by getting shut of Blackie McBlackface, and his ill-assorted coterie of minions. The Wally for the Most Rebarbative Minion goes to Steven Guilbault, pictured in the thumbnail, although it was a close thing with Chrystia Freeland.

Christmas light display seen somewhere in Canada

What a cunning stunt! Thanks and seasonal greetings to Agent 6.

Trudeau's Canada explained in one picture

People keep asking, "What happened to Canada?" Here's the answer.

This meme is based on an actual photograph os a recent immigrant (legal, of course) treating a Toronto sidewalk the same way as a Bombay sidewalk. 

Footnote: The beaverbuck is now worth less than 70 cents U.S. It's all very sad, really.

Your Singhs today (Canada-US border edition)

It must be apparent by now, even to someone as tone-deaf as Canadian Prime Minister "Junior" Trudeau, that if he's going to honour his pledge made at Mar-a-Lago (see previous post) to tighten up security on the border between Canada and the US of A, he's going to have to confront his great and good friends in the Sikh community.

Because M Trudeau depends for electoral success on the multitudes of Singhs -- all Sikhs are Singhs -- in the `burbs of Vancouver and Toronto, his law enforcement minions and the lickspittle media tend to downplay or outright ignore the involvement of numerous graduates of the Singh School of Truck Driving (see WWW passim) in the cross-border traffic in cocaine, guns and other contraband.

You don't believe? Consider this report from the Illinois State Police, released yesterday. According to the press release, two Ontario men are facing charges after troopers seized 540 kilograms of cocaine from a tractor-trailer which they stopped on Interstate 80 on the afternoon of November 29th.

The cops were conducting a commercial vehicle inspection on a Volvo tractor-trailer on I-80 in Henry County. "During the commercial motor vehicle inspection, the trooper observed numerous indicators of criminal activity," the news release read. "A subsequent search revealed suspected cocaine. The total approximate weight of the cocaine located was 1146 pounds and has an approximate street value of more than $40 million dollars."

The accused, who police said are both residents of Ontario, have been identified as 27-year-old Vanshpreet Singh and 36-year-old Manpreet Singh. They have been charged with possession of cocaine, possession with intent to deliver cocaine, and cocaine trafficking. 

Homeland Security investigators have been called in to figure out how the Singhs and their very large truck got into the US of A without being challenged at the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM). Is a puzzlement. Perhaps if the border were properly defended, such things wouldn't happen.

Canada to become 51st US state? No, eh!

President-Elect Donald Trump had a weekend visitor at Mar-a-Lago, none other than the Right Honourable Blackie McBlackface, Prime Minister of All Canuckistan. Following Junior's ceremonial kissing of POTUS's ring [Which one? Ed.], he and his entourage were offered a sumptuous state banquet of roasted crow, followed by a dessert of humble pie.

Then came the after-dinner surprise. The atmosphere was convivial, with the two leaders nibbling on crab cocktail and slurping down oysters as they discussed issues of tariffs, border security and trade deficits. But for all the superficial chumminess -- like Spike the bulldog and his little sycophant, in the old Warner Bros. cartoons -- President Trump remained focused on what he wanted from Canada.

What would that be? He's quoted as saying that "Canada has failed the U.S. border by allowing large amounts of drugs and people across the border, including illegal immigrants from over 70 different countries."

But wait, there's more.... Mr Trump reportedly became more animated when it came to the U.S. trade deficit with Canada, which he estimated to be more than $100 billion, and told the Canuck "leader" that if Canada cannot fix the border issues and trade deficit, he will levy a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods immediately on returning to office."

At that point, sources say, Junior started whining and playing the victim card. While shedding crocodile tears, he told POTUS that he just couldn't impose such a tariff "because it would kill the Canadian economy completely."

One would have thought that M Trudeau would have made some positive response, such as an offer to tighten up the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM), but he said nothing, at least not anything that could be heard, about doing anything to stop the cross-border flow of illegal aliens and drugs. He just wanted President Trump to withdraw his threat for nothing, out of concern for the well-being of Canada!

President Trump wasn't biting. "So," he said to Chief Walking Goose, "your country can't survive unless it's ripping off the U.S. to the tune of $100 billion?" If that's the case, he suggested, Canada should become become the 51st of the United (?) States of America. The very idea! Not knowing whether or not to take the President-Elect seriously, the Canuck PM and his entourage laughed nervously.

The Donald followed up with the quip that Trudeau could be governor of the new states, although, he said, "prime minister is a better title." According to Fox News, someone at the meeting, then warned Mr Trump that, as a state, Canada would be deep blue, whereupon he suggested it become "two states, a leftist one and a patriotic one." LOL?

OK, seriously... He may be smiling and laughing, but President Trump is making it clear that he is very serious about tackling the problems that beset the US of A, and intends to do everything he can to solve them. 

That's why Canadians should be happy about President Trump's little jest. Walt's many Canadian agents and friends don't want to become Americans. They just want the American Sickness -- symptoms: wokeism, DEI, division, waste and enforced mediocrity -- to be stopped at the border. 

Thanks to Blackie McBlackface, Canada already has more than enough of those things, plus the 1000s of bogus refugees who used first Trump victory as an excuse to enter Canada illegally, and are still squatting there. What Canadians want is the Trump Cure... without having to become Americans to get it.

Canada's House of Death

The world leader pictured at lower right [should be left, no? Ed.] is Blackie McBlackface, Prime Minister of Canuckistan, with the dog who doubles as his deputy and Finance Minister. 

The lovely and talented dwarf [Which one is that? Ed.] will have her work cut out for her to find the $6.2 billion ($4.4 billion in real money) needed to pay for M Trudeau's latest attempt to bribe Canadians with their own money, but we'll come to that in a minute.

Her master returned to the House of Commons -- the lower house of Canada's Parliament -- on Wednesday, after a week of swanning around South America telling the Latinx not to worry about Trump, Canada will save the world. 

M Trudeau found things much as he left them, except that his bloated cabine has been reduced to 37 ministers, down from 38 at the beginning of the week. For stats freaks, 37 is 24% of the 153 Liberal Members of Parliament eligible for the extra salary and perqs that go with a cabinete position. How does the US of A manage to get along with a cabinet of only 7 or 8?

Canada's misgovernment will have to get along without the services of the Honourable Randy Boissonnault, who was the Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Official Languages -- the title tells you all you need to know about Canada -- until he got caught in a web of lies about his racial status.

M Boissonnault has been under the microscope for months, from the House Ethics Committee's scrutiny of his former medical supply business partner's texts and subsequent probing around "the real Randy", to "revisions" of his past claims to indigenous identity. The Notional Pest revealed this week that the honourable minister is not a First Nations (read: Indian -- feathers, not turbans) person, but only a Pretendian. His previous claim that his great-grandmother was Cree was untrue, as was his claim that he had been adopted by a Cree family. That family turned out to be Métis, and in Canada that's a hyuge difference.

M Boissonnault has also previously said that upon re-election, he cut ties with the company he co-founded -- an assertion that’s been in question since last spring -- but faced new scrutiny recently after it came to light that the company claimed to be "Indigenous-owned", thus entitled under Liberal DEI rules to preferential treatment when bidding on federal contracts.  

Friday's announcement that Boissonnault had walked the plank came less than 24 hours after M McBlackface insisted that his only Alberta minister still had a place on the Liberal front benches. During Question Period, Cuckservative Leader Pierre Poilievre snarked, "Up until a minute ago, had a minister with a double identity. The prime minister knew the former minister was directing his business illegally from inside cabinet. He knew the former minister had claimed there was another Randy when there was no other Randy. He knew the former minister had falsely claimed to be Indigenous… yet he stood by him up until yesterday."

Little Potato (that's what the Chinese call him) responded by restating, "the member for Edmonton Centre has stepped down from cabinet to focus on clearing these allegations." So that's all right then.

To take Canucks' minds off this latest scandal, M Trudeau and his dog announced on Thursday a gigantic Christmas Winter Holiday gift to the shivering frostbacks, in the form of a two-month "tax holiday" from the hated GST on numerous items, such as Christmas Winter Holiday trees, to take effect on December 14th. Who buys a Christmas Winter Holiday tree in the middle of December?

But wait (the Gliberals said), there's going to more. Every Canadian who worked in 2023 but made less than C$150,000 will get a cheque for $250. How about that?! Those who were unemployed, and senior Canucks living on their pensions get squat, but that too is all right.

But there's a fly in the ointment. [Isn't there always? Ed.] To be able to cut the cheques, the Gliberals will need to get a supply (American readers, read: appropriations) bill through Parliament, which means the House of Commons since the Canadian Senate is only a rubber stamp. Unfortunately, the House has effectively shut down. 

On Monday, the House will mark two months in which it hasn’t actually done anything. MPs are showing up to work, petitions are being tabled and quips and japes are being hurled across, the floor, but bills aren't getting passed, votes aren't being held and legislation isn't being debated. In other words, the MPs, although collecting their pay, aren't doing anything to earn it.

With no routine supply bills being approved, parts of the federal government could start running out of money as early as December 10th, according to the President of the Treasury Board, who last week tabled a $21.6 billion supply bill, which is simply mouldering on the order paper with everything else. Adding another $6.2 billion won't make life any easier for the Natural Governing Party.

In fact, the Trudeaunians can't do anything at all, owing to the current gridlock, which was caused by a demand by the opposition parties, for access to unredacted copies of documents, including e-mails, related to alleged [LMAO. Ed.] corruption at Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC), a foundation that funds and supports "clean technoloy innovation" (read: greenscam). 

The SDTC is also known as the Green Slush Fund. Back in September, the House (in which the Liberals do not have a majority) passed a motion requiring every scrap of paper related to the SDTC to be handed "forthwith" to the Mounties for "investigation". So far, most of the documents the Liberals have turned over have been severely redacted. Whole passages have been blacked out, and hundreds of pages withheld. 

On September 26th, Speaker Greg Fungus told the Trudeau government that this was against the rules, and that the House of Commons was owed unredacted documents. When the Liberals continued to refuse, the Conservatives responded by seizing the wheel of the House, by tabling a motion to refer the issue to a committee, where the matter has been debated ever since.

Since the debate is on an issue of Parliamentary privilege, it takes precedence over absolutely everything else, including more than a dozen pending bills that haven't been touched in two months. The Bloc Québécois or the NDP could table a motion to end the debate, but they haven’t. Whether the proposal to declare a "tax holiday" will dynamite the log jam remains to be seen.

Canadians are itching to get rid of Chief Walking Goose, and would dearly love him to call a snap election ASAP. It seems more likely that he will hang on until the last minute, which would be 20 October 2025, according to the fixed-date provisions of the Canada Elections Act. Among the Liberal proposals languishing on the Order Paper is one which would postpone the date to 27 October 27, to avoid conflicting with Diwali. Surprised? 

The one-week delay would ensure that dozens of MPs, of all parties, would "serve" (as they call it) long enough to qualify for generous pensions, even if they are defeated in the next go-round. If you're still suprised, you don't understand Trudeau's Canada. But so what. The only things that matter to Canadians are hockey and beer. Watching a game of shinny while slurping up a bucket of suds and whining about the government... that's Canada.
