PPC leader Max Bernier asks tough questions about illegal immigration

Contrary to rumours being spread by Canada's controlled media -- not just the state-owned public broadcaster but every major fake newspaper -- the People's Party of Canada is still alive and still fighting for real Canadian values to be reflected in federal government policy.

In particular, they are the only federal party taking a hard line against illegal immigration: third-worlders crossing Canuckistan's porous borders, overstaying student and work visas, and avoiding deportation by crying "refugee". 

Two million "temporary" residence permits are set to expire this year, and almost no-one is talking about what happens next. The plan being quietly advanced by the governing Liberal Party of Marx Carnage is to eliminate the backlog of refugee and asylum claims by a process of "mass regularization". That's Liberal-speak for letting them all stay,  no questions asked.

In this video, PPC leader Maxime Bernier speaks out against this secret plan, and asks whether or not Canada's laws actually mean anything. 

The Plain People of Canada: What abouth yon Parti Québécois, then?

Hey, we said the PPC is the only federal party expressing Canadians' anger about uncontrolled illegal immigration. Things are different at the provincial level, when you get closer to the grass roots. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is at daggers drawn with the federal government, demanding that her province (Canada's version of Texas) have the right to enforce immigration laws and boot out those they don't like.

And in la Belle Province du Québec, at a time when support for Quebec separatism has reached one of the lowest ebbs of the last 50 years, voters seem about to hand the government over to le Parti Québécois, the province's historical standard-bearer for secession, now seen as "the most successful anti-woke party in Canada". That's PQ leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon in the picture, giving The Salute. All good liberals know what that means, eh!

The PQ may simply be the most conspicuous beneficiary of a Canada-wide backlash to high immigration, racial hiring quotas, and the various other trappings of what the French call "wokisme". We don't need to translate, do we?

The party’s official immigration policy pledges to cap new immigrants at 35,000 per year, to place a permanent moratorium on "economic immigration", and to pursue "automation" and "roboticization" to lessen Quebec's dependence on immigrant labour.

M St-Pierre Plamondon has been a heterodox voice on cultural issues ever since becoming PQ leader in 2020. That year, he criticized the Montréal Canadiens' decision (since reveresed) to open home games with the vomit-inducing "Indigenous land acknowledgement", stating that it was inaccurate to characterize Montréal as sitting on top of "unceded" land.

Also in 2020, he was one of the few Canadian politicians to publicly question a federally driven push towards accusing Canadian institutions of "systemic racism". Then prime minister Blackie McBlackface had called "systemic racism...an issue right across the country, in all our institutions, including in all our police forces." But M St-Pierre Plamondon joined Québec Premier François Legault in questioning the claim's core tenet that any differential outcome among races was ipso facto evidence of racism.

In his first press conference after becoming PQ leader, M Plamondon said he wanted specific examples of discriminatory policies, rather than just blanket government declarations that everything was racist, "so we can come up with solutions that are connected to the diagnosis, rather than say it's out there, in the system." He added, "there is no doubt in my mind that the concept of systemic racism should not be taught in our secondary schools."

The Laurentian elites may be tut-tutting and crying "racisme", but pure-laine Canadiens are listening, and flocking to the Parti Québécois.  Suddenly, M St-Pierre Plamondon’s more heterodox positions suddenly aren't all that controversial. In late 2024, he publicly denounced the very idea of wokeism. He defined wokeism it as a political strategy of using guilt and disinformation in order to impose a political agenda through brute force. 

On "Tout le monde en parle", Québec's most-watched talk show, he said that one signature technique of the wokesters is "the use of the words 'racist', 'intolerance', and 'phobe' to silence opponents." But, he said, "We can serve justice and we can serve equity without insulting and intimidating others."

Canada needs more political leaders like Max Bernier, Danielle Smith and Paul St-Pierre Plamondon. Let those who are afraid to speak out strongly for fear of being called "racist" etc take note.

Walz Announces $8 Billion Grant To Somali Company 

To Investigate Fraud

ST. PAUL, MN — In response to growing allegations of fraud tied to Minnesota's Somali community, Governor Tim Walz announced he had awarded an $8 billion grant to a Somali company to find the perpetrators.

"I'm sparing no expense to find those responsible," Governor Walz announced. "That's why I'm consulting with a Somali private detective agency. They know when to run a mean pick-six. They also run a nifty daycare center."

To date, approximately $18 billion has been lost to fraud in Minnesota through fake social service programs run by Somalis, some of whom may be in the country illegally. Walz hopes to get to the bottom of the scandal with a lucrative grant to the newly formed Osman Farah Private Eye Detective Agency for Finding Welfare Fraud 

"Look at me. Look at me. I am the detective now," said Detective Osman Farah.

Democrats praised Walz for rising above politics to get to the bottom of the fraud case. "Well, I'm convinced," said Minnesota Congressional Representative Ilhan Omar. "Nothing to see here. As usual, America is the real villain."

Previously, Republicans questioned Walz's leadership throughout the Somali daycare fraud scandal, even going so far as to suggest he's involved. Now, however, they're certain he's just mentally handicapped and unable to run an elaborate money laundering scheme himself.

"We should probably have him arrested, but honestly, this is all so entertaining," House Speaker Mike Johnson said as he ate a bag of popcorn while watching the news. "Ha, they just found another billion. Hilarious."

At publishing time, Somali detectives announced they were close to cracking the case and just needed another $8 billion in funds to be sure.

USA to admit 40,000 refugees. Guess who goes to the head of the line?

If you guessed Palestinians or Afghans, let me remind you that this is President Donald J. Trump's America, not the woke train wreck that preceded it. America is becoming great again! Anyhoo, a report from Reuters today says the new administration is discussing a refugee admissions cap of around 40,000 for the coming year, with a majority allocated to... wait for it... white South Africans!

Some readers may be puzzled by a story about white South African "refugees". Walt has written several times about the plight of the Afrikaners -- those of Dutch descent known as "Boers" (meaning "farmers") -- trying to get out of the moribund black-ruled state before their land is taken from them.

See, for instance, "Aussies welcome Boers fleeing South African land grab", WWW 14/3/18. Woke governments like those of Canada, the Disunited Kingdon and Joe Biden's USA have not welcomed them. "They're white supremacists, you know... believers in apartheid... racists... Nazis... Hitler..."

Not so the government of Australia, which (as the post linked above says) decided seven years ago that they were the kind of immigrants who would contribute something to a country where they would't be subject to anti-white racism.

Now the USA has done a 180 from the woke refugee policies of the Dimocrats. In an e-mail cited by Reuters, Angie Salazar, the top refugee program official at the Department of Health and Human Services, told state-level refugee workers that she expected the cap to be 40,000, with about 30,000 of those spaces allocated to  devoted to Afrikaners.

The 40,000-person cap would be a sharp drop from the 100,000 refugees brought in by Demented Joe in fiscal 2024, but higher than the record-low 15,000-person ceiling set for fiscal 2021 before the end of President Trump's first term. 

A separate person familiar with the matter said that in addition to the 40,000 figure, a cap as low as 12,000 had also been discussed. President Trump froze refugee admissions immediately after taking office in January, but weeks later launched a programme for Afrikaners, saying the white minority group suffered racial discrimination and violence in majority-Black South Africa.

I, for one, welcome the Boers to my corner of the forest. Chances are they'll do well here, like the Heysteks, who immigrated to Alberta, Canada in the late 1990s, when the black Africans took over the most prosperious country in Africa and started running it into the ground. Here's daughter Susanna and her family, playing some very Canadian fiddle tunes.

Biden-appointed WA judge orders 1000s of invaders "resettled" in US

Another tale from the Left Coast of wokeism triumphant. Or maybe we should say, of "the resistance" still trying to enforce its "progressive" agenda against the will of the American people. 

A judge of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington has just issued an order requiring President Donald Trump to bring into America some 12,000 "refugees" who will be resttled (one hopes) amongst the mostly white folks of that state.

According to the ruling, the government must admit 1000s of refugees who had been approved for resettlement in the US of A before President Trump signed an executive order to halt the refugee resettlement program. Here's the nub of the ruling:

"This Court will not entertain the Government’s result-oriented rewriting of a judicial order that clearly says what it says. 

The Government is free, of course, to seek further clarification from the Ninth Circuit. But the Government is not free to disobey statutory and constitutional law—and the direct orders of this Court and the Ninth Circuit—while it seeks such clarification. 

The Government’s obligation to process, admit, and provide statutorily mandated resettlement support services to the Injunction-Protected Refugees is immediate. Likewise, the Government’s obligation to restore funding, information, and operational support to its USRAP partners as necessary to process, admit, and provide resettlement services to these individuals is also immediate."

Shortly after taking office, President Trump signed the executive order to suspend the refugee resettlement program. As expected, those contractors whose funding relies on resettling refugees in American communities sued the Trump administration to restore the program. 

In February, the same judge blocked the President from carrying out the executive order to suspend the refugee program, even as he admitted the president holds broad authority over immigration. "The president has substantial discretion to suspend refugee admissions. But that authority is not limitless," he wrote at the time. Now he has said it again.

The judge's name, by the way, is Jamal Whitehead. I kid you not. You probably don't need to be told that he was appointed to his position by Demented Joe Biden. [Was the appointment was signed by autopen? Ed.] Judge Whitehead has a prosthetic leg, so got an extra plus-mark on the DEI qualification checklists. That pretty much explains everything.

UPDATED: Movie Review: "District 9"

This Sunday afternoon's TV schedule offered a choice between foorball and Hallmark Christmas movies. The former doesn't interest me and the latter sicken me, so I just about broke my wrist looking for something, anything else.

Imagine my surprise to find (on the Aboriginal People's Television Network!) an excellent but little-known sci-fi movie, District 9. Released in 2009, the film was directed by Neill Blomkamp, written by him and Terri Tatchell, and produced by Peter Jackson and Carolynne Cunningham. 

Set in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 2002, it tells what happens when alien refugees -- in this case real aliens from outer space -- colonize an earthly city over which their spacecraft has been stranded. Multinational United (MNU) is the agency of the world government charged with giving them humanitarian aid. 

Wikus van der Merwe, played by novice actor Sharlto Copley, is a minion of MNU tasked with getting the loathesome "prawns", as the earthlings call the aliens, ready for resettlement in a new encampment to be known as District 10. District 9 is the story of how Wikus becomes infected with an alien fluid, slowly turning him into one of the reviled prawns.

District 9 was the first documentary-style film to be nominated for Best Picture Oscar, as well as three other Academy Awards. It didn't win any of them, not even the Oscar for Best Achievement in Visual Effects, even though the CGI "prawns" and all the other SFX were beyond top-notch. 

The movie is just too politically incorrect. It was banned in Nigeria, for instance, because that country's government felt that it unfairly portrayed Nigerians -- the only humans who could coexist with the aliens -- as cannibals and savages. Imagine that.

Stateside, the many admirers of the "New South Africa" were upset that all the shacks in District 9 were actual shacks that existed in the slums of Johannesburg, which were to be evacuated and the residents moved to better government housing, paralleling the events in the film. Only one shack was created specifically for the movie.

Similarly, the mutilated animal carcasses in the background of many scenes were all too real and, with only a few exceptions, were already in the real slums and shacks used for the filming.

The MNU headquarters buildings shown in numerous scenes throughout the film are, in reality, the Carlton Centre complex belonging to South African state transport company Transnet. The shorter of the two buildings is actually the former Carlton Hotel which was mothballed in 1997 "due to low occupancy." When Walt stayed there near the end of the apartheid regime, he was warned not to leave the building except to catch an approved taxi in the daytime, and never at night.

15 years after the release of District 9, the question of what to do when a horde of alien invaders takes over your country is more germane than ever. Residents of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland, where "encampments" of aliens and other undesirables were largely unknown in  2009, will feel uncomfortable watching this movie now. 

At the end of the film we are told that District 9 was dismantled, and its unwelcome residents moved to District 10, which is growing bigger and more foul every year. Let that sink in....

UPDATE ADDED at 1800 FMT: Our attention has been drawn to "Visit California: It's America's Future", a gem of a video just dropped by the Babylon Bee (natch!). Watch it and understand why the gliberals hated District 9.

The Great Replacement is a fact... a CANADIAN fact...

and it's too late for you hosers to do anything about it! The damage has already been done by the extreme-woke Liberal government of Justin "Junior" Trudeau. It's all part of the Soros-authored Great Replacement plan, which is now a fait accompli.

So says Canadian advocate and writer Chris George, in "Trudeau Liberals’ immigration policies purposefully altering Canada", posted in the Niagara Independent on 31/5/24. Thanks to Agent 3 for capturing the URL! Let's begin with Mr George's list of disturbing statistics, which the Liberals can no longer conceal. Emphasis and parenthetical comments are Walt's.

The government’s open border policies are changing the ethnic composition of the country. Government data from Statistics Canada and the department of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada tell us a number of things. 

1. In 2022 and 2023 Canada’s population grew by a record amount, more than one million-plus people each year.

2. In 2022 the country’s population growth rate was 2.7%, which is the highest rate in the world outside African countries. In 2023, it was even higher at 3.2%

3. Canada’s population has not grown at the current pace since the baby boom years in the late 1950s. Almost all (98%) of that growth came from migration.

4. According to the Canadian census, prior to 2015, immigration consisted of 28% coming from the UK/Europe, and today this number is only two per cent [That's right, only 2%.]

5. Today, Canada has the world’s largest intake of Third World migration – mostly from the continent of Africa. Nearly 98% of immigrants now come from India, China, Pakistan, Lebanon, Syria, and various African countries.  

6. First- and second-generation immigrants now account for 44% of Canada's population, according to the 2021 census. 

7.  On 1 July 2015, Canada’s estimated population was 35,851,800.vOn 16 June 2023, Canada’s population surpassed the 40 million mark. Nine months later, on 28 March 2024, it surpassed 41 million.

The main point of Chris George's well-researched and well-argued article is that the Liberals’ immigration plan comes with an untold cost.

Marc Miller, the minister who's supposedly in charge, has commanded center stage in Ottawa over the past few weeks making a rash of new policy announcements. The changes being made to Canada’s immigration system will make it easier for newcomers to come into the country – seemingly without regard for either the costs to taxpayers or the strain placed on Canadians’ social contract. 

Last week, the government tabled legislation that extends birthright citizenship, allowing Canadians who live abroad to pass down "Canadian citizenship" to their children who may have been born outside the country and live abroad. This allows for a person who never has set foot in Canada to hold Canadian citizenship based on the citizenship of just one of their parents.

Also last week, M Miller announced that the government was increasing the temporary resident visa program for extended Palestinian family members in Gaza from 1000 to 5000 applicants. The special measures allow Gazans [including Hamas jihadis] who have relatives in Canada to move and stay in the country for up to three years.

[But wait, there's more...] M Miller then revealed that the federal cabinet is considering permitting migrants and illegal immigrants currently in Canada to gain permanent residence. This includes migrants without valid documents, including asylum seekers ordered to be deported, as well as former international students whose study permits have expired. This initiative will provide all current illegal immigrants an unconditional free pass. 

These latest policy announcements are an extension of the Trudeau government’s open border approach to attracting increasing numbers of newcomers to Canada. The latest immigration schedule announced in fall 2023 has Canada officially welcoming 485,000 new permanent residents this year, 500,000 in 2025, and another 500,000 in 2026. 

This is less than half the story, though, as government figures reveal 1,160,000 temporary residents came to Canada in the last 18 months and there may be more than 2,200,000 in the country. And in addition to this, Canada has accepted an increasing number of refugees and asylum seekers.

The Liberals’ immigration plan comes with an untold cost. Aside from the increased pressure on Canadians’ housing, health care and social services, which are hard to quantify, there are a host of associated costs required to support the newcomers and their daily living. Taxpayers never get a complete picture of costs, only snippets of details such as: Blacklock’s Reporter reported that room and board for illegal immigrants is costing a daily average of $224 per person, $81,760 per person per year, according to government records. 

Couple that news with the Migrant Rights Network estimating the number of illegals living in Canada could be anywhere between 20,000 to 500,000, and we can factor the annual cost of room and board for illegals from $1.6 billion to $40.5 billion.

Blacklock’s Reporter was the only news source to headline Statistics Canada data that reported in March of 2022 that "more than a third (35%) of government-assisted refugees remain on welfare a decade after landing in Canada."

An analysis of the data showed “higher welfare rates followed landmark 2001 changes to immigration law” when the Trudeau government dropped the requirement for foreigners to show proof of work skills and economic independence. Separate Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada data reveals that "Only 56% of government-assisted refugees were directly participating in the Canadian labour market." [That's government-speak for "only 56% were working or looking for work."]

Credit again goes to Blacklock’s Reporter for publishing government data that revealed, of the 2015 Syrian refugees brought into Canada by the Trudeau Liberals, half the total (50.4%) were still relying on social assistance after five years. Of the 2016 Syrian refugees the government welcomed, seven of ten (69.5%) refugees were still relying on social assistance four years after landing.

As expensive as financially supporting migrants is for taxpayers, Canadians are paying a greater cost with the societal disorder newcomers are bringing onto the streets of Canada’s cities. The Liberals’ commentary around Miller’s announcement regarding bringing thousands from Gaza into the country has been met with grave concerns about Canadians’ security. This has been underlined in the last few days with bullet-ridden schools in Toronto and Montreal, violent protests on campuses, and rallies that display open threatening hate-speech and rallying cries to "globalize the Intifada."

[Yesterday in Toronto, one person was killed and four wounded in a shooting "incident" in the Rexdale "hood". Today the University of Toronto will begin its commencement exercises. Graduands will have to walk around a pro-Hamas "encampment" which has occupied the front campus for weeks, while U of T's admin and police do nothing.]”

It is reasonable for Canadians to fear that the Hamas-supporting newcomers will join the growing street protests and make an already toxic situation worse, leaving all citizens compromised and Canadian Jews in an even more vulnerable position. (Consider why all other countries, including Arab neighbours, keep their borders closed to these people.) 

Just as the Trudeau Liberals remain unfazed by the crises in housing and health care caused in part by the growing numbers of immigrants, they remain unapologetic with their intention to bring more Gazans into Canada. Political pundit Spencer Fernando bluntly assessed, "The Liberals are knowingly importing radicalized anti-Semites, many of whom also despise the Western world and oppose Canadian Values….  If you are someone who loves Canada and believes in Western Values, Marc Miller has chosen to be your Enemy."

The National Citizens Coalition posted on X the following observation: "You don't bring in a million people during a housing shortage crisis, where we don't have enough family doctors, and say you're fixing the problem… For every day that Trudeau and Miller's desperate pivot to unchecked mass immigration grows more reckless, exploitative, and debilitating for generational problems of housing and healthcare, more and more Canadians are realizing they’ve had enough."

Quite apart from the chaos of the Palestinian-Hamas protests, there are daily news stories of around-the-block food bank lines, new tent cities being pitched, carjacking and street crimes, bank foreclosures, and overcrowded and closed ERs. The strain being applied on Canadians' social contract is now palpable.

Miller tells Canadians the government is extending citizenship, permitting illegals to stay in the country, and bringing in more Gazans. He’s signaled there will be more than a million newcomers ushered into the country again this year. Miller reassures us it’s all in the Trudeau Liberals’ immigration plan. 

[Another name for the Liberals' "immigration plan" is "Great Replacement plan". It's the one thing the Trudeau government has done as promised. But the promise wasn't made by Junior. It was made by his father, Emperor Trudeau I, when he seized the reins of power in 1968. "You won't recognize Canada when I'm done with it," was what he said. That one time (only), he wasn't lying.]

As I was saying...

...in "Who's really behind the Great Replacement" (WWW, 15/11/23)...

Dear readers, the Great Replacement is all part of the Soros/WEF/Schwab plan to usher in the New World Order. It began long ago, but this latest phase is far from the end. Who's going to stop it before it's too late?! The only person the conspirators are afraid of is... wait for it... President Donald J. Trump!

Who's really behind the Great Replacement

While you go out and about today, take a look around you. No matter where in North America you live, even in more remote areas like Greater Ford Mudge, you will see more and more people who are not like you. Go ahead. See for yourself. Try your local foodbanks and homeless shelters. Yes, dear reader, the Great Replacement is not a theory. It's a fact!

The latest phase of the WEF/Soros/Schwab plan to fill Europe and America with Arabs, Africans and other unassimilable minorities, misfits and leftist revolutionaries is the propaganda campaign to shame the West into taking in millions of refugees from the Hamas-Israel war. They are not wanted in Israel (obviously) or Egypt (the only country with a land border with Gaza) or Saudi Arabia or any of the other Islamic statelets in the region. So where should they go? Why, to the West, of course!

Who says so?! None other than Israeli Finance Minister (((Bezalel Smotrich))), who yesterday called on Palestinians to "voluntarily emigrate" to Western countries. Mr Smotrich was responding to an op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal written by Likud MKs (Members of the Israeli Knesset) (((Danny Danon))) and (((Yesh Atid))) callin on Western countries to accept Gazan refugees.

In "Israeli minister calls for widespread Palestinian emigration to West" (Jerusalem Post, 14/11/23), Mr Smotrich is quoted thus:

"I welcome the initiative of voluntary relocation of Gazan Arabs to countries worldwide. This is the right humanitarian solution for the residents of Gaza and the whole area after 75 years of being poor refugees. 

"The majority of Gaza is fourth and fifth generations to 1948 refugees who, instead of being rehabilitated long ago like hundreds of millions of refugees around the world, were held hostage in Gaza in poverty and overcrowding and were a symbol of the desire to destroy the State of Israel and of the refugees' return to Jaffa, Haifa, Acre, and Tiberias." 

He went on to say this has bred the hatred for Israel and Jews "upon which the population in Gaza is raised and educated" and led them to believe that the only solution is the destruction of Israel. 

"The small area of the Gaza Strip, which doesn't have any natural resources or independent sources of income, has no chance of independent, economic, and diplomatic existence in such high density long-term. Therefore, the only solution to end the suffering and the pain of Jews and Arabs alike is for countries around the world who truly want what's good for the refugees to accept them along with support and economic aid from the international community, including the State of Israel."

Readers who are slapping their foreheads and exclaiming, "By Yahweh, he's right!" are invited to share their views with their representatives in Congress/Parliament/whatever. Don't just write or email. Get your traditional keffiyeh headscarf (available on Etsy for 30 pieces of silver) and join your comrades in the streets as they chant "From the river to the sea, you're welcome to our country!"

The hidden numbers and true cost of mass immigration

Agent 3 tells me that if you ask Johnny Canuck, the average Canajan, hanging out at Tim's, how many immigrants Canuckistan should accept next year, he'll tell you, "None is too many!"

The Honourable Marc Miller, the Liberal Minister of Immigration and Refugees and Citizenship and Refugees (etc etc, but did we mention Refugees), got up on his hind feet in Ottawa this week to tell Johnny Canuck that he's wrong! And/or that Prime Minister Blackie McBlackface doesn't care what his subjects think.

Instead, Mr Miller revealed that the misgovernment's "new" immigration targets for the next three years were... wait for it... pretty much the same as last year's historic high level. Canadians are expected to "welcome" 485,000 new permanent residents in 2024, 500,000 in 2025 and another 500,000 in 2026.

So, in the next three years, Canada will (officially) welcome another 1,5 MILLION "permanent residents". But that's only half the story! A report by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce shows that equally large or even greater numbers of aliens are getting into the Great No-longer-white North through the back door.

In 2022, the permanent resident figure was 435,000, but the CIBC claims the actual number of "newcomers" was more than 955,000. Statistics Canaada goes even farther, pegging the number at more than one million. No final total for 2022 has been provided by the Liberal government. 

To understand Trudeau's full plans for immigration -- aka the Great Replacement -- look at the numbers of "temporary residents" -- those who were provided visas for education (e.g. at the Singh School of Trucking) and work (as drivers of killer 18-wheelers). Temporary visa holders accounted for 58% (!) of the 2022 intake of newcomers (58 per cent) in 2022. 

That's based on the government's numbers, which may be off by as many as a million. Yet the Liberals plan to increase the pace of temporary immigration in the coming years. More than 900,000 international students are expected in 2024. 

But wait, as Vince Offer used to say, there's more. To add to the "front door" permanent residents and the "back door" temporary residents”, there are all those self-styled refugees and migrants who make it to Canadian soil to seek asylum. 

In 2022, the feds stated that nearly 40,000 people crossed through the notoriously open border at Roxham Road. However, reports from NGOs and the Québec government claimed that nearly 93,000 asylum-seekers had their bags carried for them by the Mounties. As well, there were 145,000 real refugees from Ukraine, and another 20,000 from Afghanistan.

Welcoming all these migrants -- the bad along with the good -- costs a shed-load of money. Supporting them puts increased pressure placed on social services, housing, and health care, all to be paid out of Canuck taxpayers' deep pockets.

In the federal budget for this year alone, there was a $1 BILLION ($700,000,000 in real money) for short-term accommodation and temporary health-care coverage for asylum-seekers and refugees -- $530 million for accommodations (in luxury hotels and the like) and $469 million for health benefits, some of which, like free dental care, are not available to Johnny Canuck. 

The Honourable Mr Miller says Canada needs more immigrants to fill labour gaps, that we cannot build the homes we need without them. That would be fine if all the newcomers were working, but many working-age immigrants arrive with dependent children and spouses (who do not work) and are often joined later by retired (and often sickly) parents, grandparents, and family members. (It's called chain migration.) So, for every worker Canada gains it also gains at least one dependent.

Here are some more interesting numbers, which presented without (much) comment.

* According to the Canadian census, prior to 2015, 28% of immigrants came from the UK and Europe. That number is 2% today.

* Nearly 98% per cent of immigrants now come from India, China, Pakistan, Lebanon, Syria, and African countries, well known for their civilization and democracy.

* In recent years there has been a record spike in the numbers of immigrants who have left Canada (onward migration) because of high cost of living, housing issues, underemployment (because of Canada's systemic racism, of course), and the cold.

* Concomitantly [How long have you waited to use that word? Ed.], US border authorities have seen an alarming 47% increase in north-to-south illegal border crossings. One Republican presidential wannabe has called for a wall to be built on the World's Longest Undefended Border to keep them out!

As Canadians have known for years, but the Liberals refuse to admit (M-106 in force!) some immigrants bring their own toxic beliefs with them. Need proof? Watch the daily anti-Semitic demonstrations in almost every North American city. Given the never-ending flood of migrants from the Middle East and Africa, and lack of enforcement of deportation orders (HA-ha!), not just Jews but all citizens are left in a compromised and vulnerable position. 

Remember this billboard from a not-so-long-ago election? It was deplored by the CBC and all other Forces for Good in Canuckistan. Max Bernier and the People's Party of Canada are still in search of their first seat in the House of Commons. However...

This week, Environics Research released survey results that showed 44% of Canadians feel that "overall, there's too much immigration to Canada."

Last month, an Ipsos poll showed 73%believe the government's "immigration targets should be reduced until the housing shortage eases," and 68% said there should be a cap on international students while the housing crisis is addressed. 

Keith Neuman, the author of the Environics report, observed, "The main thing we're seeing is that people are more concerned about the capacity of the country to absorb a lot of newcomers when things aren't working as well as they were before." 

No kidding?! You mean Johnny Canuck finally got it? Too bad for him, eh, because he's stuck with Junior and his gang of sycophantic elitists for the foreseeable future... or until the Liberal Party takes Junior out for a long walk in the snow... just like his dad.

To blacks fed up with American racism - "Go back to Africa!"

Q. What do Ghana, Rwanda and Liberia have in common... apart from being the kind of African countries sometimes referred to as "shitholes"? 

A. They have all been suggested as good places for African migrants to return to when they say they are unhappy [and/or unwelcome! Ed.] in Europe and/or North America.

Ed. has been doing some research, and discovered a growing GBTA (Go Back To Africa) movement in the US of A. Just over two centuries ago, the movement was spearheaded [Careful. Ed.] by white people who wanted to send slaves back home. Now it's the descendants of slaves who are raising the GBTA petitions. More about that below, but first let's look at where they could go, and ask Thomas Hardy's question: Can you ever go home again? 

Liberia began in the early 19th century as a project of the American Colonization Society (ACS), which believed black people would face better chances for freedom and prosperity in Africa than in the United States. Between 1822 and the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, more than 15,000 freed and free-born black people who faced social and legal oppression in the USA, along with 3198 Afro-Caribbeans, relocated to Liberia.

The Liberian constitution and flag were modelled after those of the United States while its capital was named after ACS supporter President James Monroe. The settlers brought their culture and traditions with them, and an "Americo-Liberian" identity soon became dominant in Libria, with the Liberians descended from the ACS immigrants now regarded as somehow superior, like the descendants of the Mayflower Pilgrims or the FFVs in America.

Liberia's last 40 years have been marked by political instability and horrific violence rooted in ethnic divisions. In April of 1980, a military coup led by Master Sergeant Samuel Doe of the Krahn ethnic group overthrew and killed President William R. Tolbert, Jr, one of the "Americo-Liberians" along with  a majority of Tolbert's cabinet and other Americo-Liberian government officials.

After Liberia adopted a new constitution in 1985, Mr Doe was elected president in subsequent elections that were internationally condemned as fraudulent [unlike the American election of 2020. Ed.] There followed a series of coups and counter-coups until in 1989 a rebel group led by Charles Taylor, launched an insurrection in 1989 triggering the First Liberian Civil War. 

From 1989 to 1997 around 60,000 to 80,000 Liberians died, and, by 1996, around 700,000 others had been displaced into refugee camps in neighboring countries. A peace deal between warring parties was reached in 1995, leading to Mr Taylor's election as president in 1997. Under his leadership, Liberia became internationally known as a pariah state due to its use of blood diamonds and illegal timber exports to fund the Revolutionary United Front in the Sierra Leone Civil War. 

The Second Liberian Civil War began in 1999 when a rebel group based in the northwest of the country, launched an armed insurrection against Charles Taylor. In March 2003, a second rebel group began launching attacks from the southeast. Mr Taylor resigned in August 2003 and went into exile in Nigeria, from where he has been sending letters and emails begging for help in getting his money out. [Ed., you might want to check that last bit.] 

In 2005, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, another Americo-Liberian, was elected president, an office she held until 2017, when a former soccer star, George Weah, was sworn in. He promised to fight corruption, reform the economy, combat illiteracy, and improve living conditions. None of this has happened, as yet, but hey, it's Africa.

Walt told you all ye need to know about Rwanda in "Back to Africa with ye!" - BoJo to asylum-seekers", WWW 14/4/22. It is notorious as the site of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, also known as the genocide against the Tutsi. Members of the Hutu ethnic majority in the east-central African nation murdered as many as 800,000 people, mostly of the Tutsi minority. 

Started by Hutu nationalists in the capital of Kigali, the genocide spread throughout the country with shocking speed and brutality, as ordinary citizens were incited by local officials and the Hutu Power government to take up arms against their neighbours. A Disunited Nations "peacekeeping" mission, led by a Canadian general, stood idly by. 

By the time the Tutsi-led Rwandese Patriotic Front gained control of the country through a military offensive in early July, hundreds of thousands of Rwandans were dead and 2 million refugees (mainly Hutus) fled Rwanda, exacerbating what had already become a full-blown humanitarian crisis.

Yet now the Rwandan government is happy to accept immigrants, refugees and asylum-seekers -- even Hutus -- from any African country. They made a deal with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to take back some of the 1000s of bogus refugees crossing the English Channel to seek refuge in Old Blighty. In a speech at the Channel port of Dover, BoJo said, "From today...anyone entering the UK illegally as well as those who have arrived illegally since January 1 may now be relocated to Rwanda."

Among the progressive voices decrying the British government's plan to get rid of at least some of the unassimilable black people who have washed up on the shores of the septic ["sceptred", shurely. Ed.] was that of the Washington Post, which is as anti-racist and woke as any newspaper in the world. Yet the same WaPo has now given a goodly amount of op-ed space to an American Woman of Colour named Karen Attiah, for a piece headed "For African Americans tired of U.S. hostility, Ghana is still calling", 18/5/22.

What Ms Appiah suggests is that if African-Americans are fed up with the systemic racism of American society, they might be happier if they move to Ghana! Seriously! I checked the dateline on the article, and it's not April 1st.

The author cites the example of W.E.B. Du Bois, a hero of American Communists, pictured in the article living in Ghana, standing beside his Russian-built Chaika limousine. Just four years after Ghana's independence (before the wheels fell off, see above), Mr Du Bois, then 93, moved to Ghana and became a citizen.

Ms Attiah tells us Mr Du Bois had endured Jim Crow racism, FBI surveillance and the confiscation of his passport, and decided it was enough. He handed White America a scathing resignation notice, in the form of a poem, "Ghana Calls", which is quoted at length.

Ms Attiah concludes that "the truth remains that Black people in the diaspora no longer have to be chained to countries that jail them, kill them and subject them to horrific hate crimes.... To borrow from Maya Angelou, God gave us traveling shoes, and if Black people choose to use them, so be it."

Let me tell you about Ghana. Its history, since gaining independence from Not-so-great Britain in 1967, has rivalled that of Liberial (see above) for coups, civil war, tribal warfare, and barbaric violence. According to a 2018 study by the Pew Research Center, roughly three-quarters of Ghana residents want to immigrate to the USA or Europe. That's why they infest dating and romance websites, looking for gullible westerners from whom they can cadge money or a visa or both.

Ghana is plagued by significant human rights issues, according to the US State Department, including "serious restrictions" on free expression and freedom of assembly [Worse than Canada? Ed.], serious government corruption, "lack of investigation of and accountability" for gender-based violence, crimes against LGBTQ2SI+++ people and those with disabilities, and some of "the worst forms of child labor."

Buggers beware! Ghana is one of 69 nations with active anti-sodomy laws and stipulates a prison term of three years for engaging in homosexual sex. Last year, proposed legislation in the country reiterated a ban on same-sex marriage while prohibiting LGBT indoctrination. [Hmmm. Maybe it's not all bad. Ed.]

The country continues to struggle with economic troubles which were worsened by the recent coronavirus pandemic. Last summer, 1000s of protesters marched in the capital against corruption, poverty and the education system (?) under the slogan "#FixTheCountry". So why does Ms Attiah (and presumably WaPo) recommend it? 

Well, it's all part of the ongoing liberal Democratic campaign to portray the US of A as a systemically racist country. Recently, CNN's "political reporter" (read: propagandist) Malika Henderson, reacting to President Brandon's crocodile-tear-filled speech in Buffalo, said that "white Americans have to come to terms with their racism." 

Last month, loony left 1619 Project creator and professor Nikole Hannah-Jones said she did not know how anyone could argue that the US was not "founded as a racist country." And in March, another WaPo piece accused many Americans of denying and downplaying rampant racism throughout the country, claiming the killers of Ahmaud Arbery "stand in for millions of Americans" nationwide who believe that skin colour deems one "less worthy."

Walt says, if that's how you feel, you're welcome to follow Ms Attiah's suggestion and Go Back To Africa -- Ghana, Rwanda, Liberia, any of those shitholes. I'll help you pack your bags. Don't slam the door on your way out.

"Back to Africa with ye!" - BoJo to asylum-seekers

Ever read Heart of Darkness, the 1899 novella by Polish-English novelist Joseph Conrad? The story, which provided the inspiration for Apocalypse Now, is that of Charles Marlow, a sailor who takes on an assignment from a Belgian trading company as a ferry-boat captain in the African interior. Although Conrad does not name the river where the narrative takes place, it is generally understood to be the large and economically important Congo, which gave its name to two -- count `em, two -- countries in central Africa.

To the east of the smaller Republic of the Congo (aka Congo-Brazzaville) lies the larger and much worse Democratic Republic of the Congo, formerly Zaïre, and before that the Congo Free State, and before that the Belgian Congo. Of all the shitholes of Africa, the DRC is arguably the shitholiest. See: Things Fall Apart, by Chinua Achebe; Why Nations Fail, by James Robinson; All Things Must Fight to Live, by Brian Mealer, and many more.  

To the east of the DRC lies the tiny republic of Rwanda, which in the 1990s was even worse. Africa's World War: Congo, the Rwandan Genocide, and the Making of a Continental Catastrophe analyses a bloodbath that swept across central Africal in the mis-1990s, ultimately leading to the deaths of some four million people. So bad was it that in 1996 some two million refugees - a third of Rwanda's population - fled to exile in Zaire. Believe it or not.

[Where are we going with this? I've been pretty patient. Ed.] OK, OK! I just wanted to explain the shrieks of horror and clutching of pearls that greeted this week's announcement by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson of his government's plan to deal with the steady stream of would-be asylum-seekers crossing the English Channel to seek refuge in Old Blighty.

In a speech delivered this morning at the Channel port of Dover, BoJo said "From today...anyone entering the UK illegally as well as those who have arrived illegally since January 1 may now be relocated to Rwanda."

Cazart! Send `em back to Africa! What a novel concept! Well, not really. For years now, pollsters in Britain [and the rest of Europe and North America! Ed.] have shown an ever-increasing anti-immigration backlash. Taking back control of the UK's borders was a major rallying cry of the Leave campaign in the 2016 referendum on leaving the European Union, and Mr Johnson’s pro-Brexit government has been under pressure for a perceived failure to adequately tackle the English Channel crossings. 

Recent opinion polling conducted by Ipsos Mori suggests nearly two-thirds of Britons are unhappy with the government's handling of immigration. Of the 3206 people surveyed by the company on the issue in the first two months of this year, 59% said they were dissatisfied. More than half cited "not doing enough to stop Channel crossings" as a reason for their displeasure.

The details of the plan have yet to be confirmed, but the British Johnson noted the deal between London and Kigali [Rwanda's capital. Ed.] was "uncapped" and could potentially see Rwanda "resettle tens of thousands of people in the years ahead."

He claimed the scheme, which will cost over US$150,000,000, will save countless lives from human trafficking and disrupt the business model of people-smuggling gangs. In Kigali, "My good Mrs Patel" (the British Home Secretary), described the deal as a "global first" and said it will "change the way we collectively tackle illegal migration."

Rwandan Foreign Minister Vincent Biruta said his country welcomes the partnership with the UK. He said Rwanda would offer "asylum seekers and migrants...legal pathways to residence", adding "better them than those damn Europeans!" [Ed., please check that quote. I only have one source.]

Now that the pseudo-conservative Brits have belled the cat, so to speak, one wonders if the liberal democratic governments of the other AABC countries will follow suit. Don't bet on it. Lifetime pct .978.

Canuckistan immigration: Refugees prioritized over skilled workers

From the Great No-longer-white North comes a disturbing report of the overweaning wokeness of the Liberal government of Prime Minister Blackie McBlackface. "Diversity is our strength!", says Mr Socks, by which he apparently means that "diversity" and "inclusiveness" trump common sense, at least when it comes to immigration policy.

The Liberals' push to Build Back Better [Where have we heard that before? Ed.] is stalled, particularly in the real estate and housing sector, because there just aren't enough builders. Provincial governments from coast to coast to coast (as the saying goes) are crying for skilled workers -- electricians, carpenters, and (of course) the proverbial Polish plumbers. [British readers will get that. Ed.]

The federal bureaucracy in charge -- the name Immigration, Refugees & Citizenship Canada says it all -- admits in a memo obtained by immigration lawyer Steven Meurrens and furnished to the National Post, that "an estimated 76,000" applicants are in the inventory for federal high-skilled worker (FSW) applications, which is more than the number needed to meet targets all the way out to 2023. Over 207,000 people are treading water in the so-called "express entry pool", which includes skilled workers, skilled trades and people with experience living in Canada.

However... Canada’s immigration system for such potentially useful immigrants is severely backlogged. Even though the labour shortage is critical, the wokesters in Ottawa are "pausing" new invitations because the department simply can’t process them quickly enough. Applicants nominated by provincial governments are still being "processsed", but other economic immigrants have been on hold since last fall. 

What (Walt hears you frostbacks asking) is the problem? Simple. The skilled workers aren't as important as these guys.

The Liberals' current immigration plan ["Is dis a plan?" Poor Len Canayen] forecasts bringing in 110,500 skilled workers next year, but the Immigration & Refugees department says in the same memo that could have to be cut by as much as half, because the department has so much other work.

Such as what? "These reductions are due to admissions space required to accommodate the TR2PR stream* and the resettlement of Afghan nationals to Canada." The Liberals initially pledged to bring 20,000 Afghans to Canada, but during last fall's federal election campaign doubled the pledge to 40,000. 

A new immigration "plan" will be tabled in Parliament when the House of Commons resumes in February. The department aims for a six-month processing time for FSWs, but the memo warns that processing times could rise dramatically. 

"Processing times are currently at 20.4 months (over three times higher than the service standard) and are expected to continue to grow as older inventory is processed. The FSW processing time is expected to rise to 36 months throughout 2022." Not much help there for the construction or other industries, but Sikh truck drivers will be easy to find. Pushtu-English interpreters too.

* TR2PR is another Liberal scheme to allow more unskilled third-worlders -- potential Liberal voters all! -- into Canada by the back door. Anyone who got into Canada in any way as a Temporary Resident -- for instance as a "student" (read: truck driver) -- can apply to become a Permanent Resident without further qualifications. 

UPDATED: "Allahu akbar!" in England - When will we learn?

It seems like just yesterday [It was just yesterday! Ed.] that I warned our readers that no-one is safe from Islamic terrorism. It doesn't matter what country you live in, or your station in life, high or low. Muslim extremists are waging jihad -- holy war -- on us "infidels", and if you present a target of opportunity, they'll kill you!

In yesterday's post, "'Allahu akbar!' in Norway - a lesson our 'leaders' haven't learned", I was referring to an "incident" in Norway in which a "homegrown terrorist" killed five and wounded two, using a bow and arrow. The victims were apparently random "infidels", who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Today comes news of a targeted attack on a "leader", a British politican.

Sir David Amess, a Member of Parliament, succumbed to his injuries after being stabbed several times during a meeting with his constituents at a church in eastern England.  A 25-year-old suspect has been arrested. That much we know from the controlled media. The official announcement from Essex police revealed even less. Here is the full text of their tweet: 

"A man has been arrested on suspicion murder after a man was stabbed in #LeighonSea. 

"We were called to Eastwood Road North shortly after 12.05pm. 

"Sadly, a man later died. A man was arrested at the scene.

"We are not looking for anyone else." 

That's it. Just "a man" murdered by another "a man". The lack of any information about the man's identity -- let alone his nationality, ethnicity, immigration status in the UK... or religion -- aroused suspicion. You can bet that if the perp had been a white, Christian, native-born Brit, he would have been identified as such immediately. Phrases like "white supremacist" and "right-wing extremist" would have been bandied about. 

The news broke around breakfast time (in our corner of the forest). It's now time for lunch, but so far there's "radio silence" when it comes to any information that might stoke the fires of Islamophobia. Except for one report, which I have seen attributed to the Daily Telegraph, but have been unable to access. It is said that the so-far unidentified man is a "British national of Somali heritage", which would make him a follower of the Prophet.

If that turns out to be true -- we'll update this post if, as and when -- it just proves once again the danger of allowing into our countries foreigners whose values do not mesh with hours, and who refuse to assimilate, preferring to change our countries to mesh with their religion and its barbaric practices. 

UPDATE added at 1625: From the Times of London: "A 25-year-old suspect, who is a British citizen, made no attempt to flee and was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder. Police believe him to be Muslim and of Somali descent. He is being questioned by counterterrorism officers and the security services are examining possible links to Islamist extremists."

Suspicions confirmed! It doesn't matter whether or not they are connected to ISIS or Al-Qaeda. Even one "lone wolf", inspired by the injunction to kill infidels wherever they may be found, can do a lot of damage. When will our "leaders" -- those responsible for allowing such people to invade our countries -- learn this?!

"Allahu akbar!" in Norway - a lesson our "leaders" haven't learned

Norway has very strict gun control laws. Even the cops don't carry guns [as used to be the case in Britain. Ed.] Until yesterday, that is. The police directorate has now ordered officers nationwide to carry firearms, following a series of terrorist attacks in which five peopole were killed and two wounded by a man armed with a bow and arrow. 

That's an arrow in the inset picture. "The man used a bow and arrow...for some of the attacks," the local police chief told the meeja, adding that they were investigating whether other weapons had also been used.

Reuters quotes the top cop as saying, "The man has been apprehended.... From the information we now have, this person carried out these actions alone." What Reuters doesn't say (but Al Jazeera does!) is that the deadly archer is Espen Andersen Brathen, a Dane who converted to Islam, and was flagged as having being "radicalized". 

Yesterday's attacks took place over "a large area" of Kongsberg, a municipality of about 28,000 people in southeastern Norway.  "The reports coming from Kongsberg tonight are horrifying," Prime Minister Erna Solberg told a news conference. "I understand that many people are afraid, but it's important to emphasise that the police are now in control," she said. 

The statement from the police directorate said, "This is an extra precaution. The police have no indication so far that there is a change in the national threat level."

CAUTION: This is a cautionary tale. You may think you live in a peaceful country, like Norway... or Canada or New Zealand... where you are safe from random attacks by Islamic terrorists. Your government may tell you so. "The threat level is low. Police are in control. No need to be afraid." They lie!

Dear reader, no matter where you live, your country has its share of Islamic extremists. Hundreds of them, maybe thousands. Some, like this "Danish Mohammed", might be called "homegrown". Others -- most of them -- are imported from the Muslim shitholes of the Middle East. 

They have been allowed into your country by "leaders" like Germany's Angela Merkel. Other "leaders", like Canada's Just In Trudeau and America's Senile Joe Biden, are actually encouraging them to come and make themselves at home, not in cities like New York and Toronto, but in smaller cities and towns... just like yours.  

When you venture out today, to go to work or shop or go to a ball game, take a look around you. When did that mosque ["Islamic community centre", shurely. Ed.] get there? What's going on inside? Is someone preaching jihad to susceptible "homegrown" converts? What about that person covered head to toe in a burqa? Is it a woman or a man? What is he/she carrying under there? An AR-15? A bow and arrow?

Good questions, all of them, but you're not allowed to talk openly about such things. Mustn't encourage Islamophobia, you know! Besides -- this is what they tell us -- the overwhelming majority of Muslims in our communities are "moderate Muslims", peaceloving people who wish only to live in peace with us ...and of course benefit from our generous welfare system. 

Really -- this is what they tell us -- we should welcome the 1000s of Afghans who are being settled amongst us right now. It's the Christian thing to do, eh. Hmmm, somehow that doesn't sound quite right.

UPDATED: If Canadians are Islamophobic, perhaps there's a reason

The Canadian mania for self-flagellation ["Is that a sin, Father?" Ed.] continued last week with back-to-back conferences on anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, which, as everyone knows, are hard-wired into all "old stock" (read: white Christian) Canucks.

Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, MVS (Master of Virtue Signalling) told a "national summit on Islamophobia" on Friday that "government agencies need to do more to help end the problem." Canadians [as well as Americans! Ed.] cringe when they hear words like that. "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you," is one of the Three Greatest Lies in the English language.

What does Blackie McBlackface have in mind? This, for starters. Now that the Americans are admitting defeat and getting out of Afghanistan, there are 1000s of Afghans who collaborated with them (and the Canucks, who hauled down their maple leaf flag years ago) clamouring for asylum before the Taliban can behead them.

On Friday, M Trudeau announced that those Quislings and their families will be "welcomed" to Canada as refugees. Who will do the welcoming is unclear, as are specifics of the plan, but (Just in sez) his minions are on the ground in Afghanistan, working to identify those eligible for a new "path to protection." 

The Canadian public seems not to share their leader's sentiments. Comments in the Groan & Wail were unavailable due to "technical difficulties" within an hour of the story being posted.

In his opening remarks at the snorefest, Mr Socks called on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and federal security agencies to stop practices that "target" Muslims. He repeated the "diversity is our strength" mantra, calling on weary Canucks to fight for a Canada "where we celebrate diversity, where we stand together." 

How the CRA and federal security agencies will "help" is as unclear as anything else M Trudeau says, but Agent 3 warns that if anyone dares to write, say or even think anything even vaguely anti-Muslim, they can expect visits from the tax guys and/or the Mounties. M-106 is still in effect!

When he spoke of "security agencies",  the Canuck PM somehow failed to mention the Toronto Police Service, one of whose members -- Constable Jeffrey Northrup -- was laid to rest just a few days earlier, having been killed by a vehicle in the city hall parking garage while trying to apprehend Umar Zameer, who now faces a charge of first-degree murder. PC Northrup's bosses have declined to released any information on Mr Zameer's nationality, ethnicity, religion or immigration status. M-106.

Yesterday saw the opening of an inquest into another "interaction" between police and a follower of the Prophet, although this time it was the civilian who got killed. Ali Zaraeeneh was shot by a York Regional Police sniper on 13 December 2017, inside a bank in the city of Vaughan, just north of Toronto. He was armed with a gun and claimed to be wearing an explosive "suicide vest". Negotiators were called to the scene to reason with the "emotionally disturbed" man, but police were ultimately forced to "use lethal force in order to gain control of the suspect."

Three years ago last week, another "emotionally disturbed" "new Canadian" shot and killed himself in Toronto's Greektown, after first shooting and killing 10-year-old Juliana Kozis and 18-year-old Reese Fallon, and wounding 13 other people. Faisal Hussain opened fire on people sitting on restaurant patios and walking along Danforth Avenue, for no apparent reason. 

The so-called Greater Toronto Area is the destination of choice for 1000s of immigrants, "refugees" and asylum-seekers fleeing the Muslim civil wars in the Middle East. There's no news from there this morning, but in Montréal -- preferred by Muslims from North Africa -- police have just cancelled an Amber Alert for 16-year-old Zahraa Jaafar, after she was found alive. She had reportedly been abducted by her brother, Mohammad Jaafar, 22, in what was undoubtedly an affair having to do with the family's honour.

Of course not all the "refugees", asylum-seekers and other Muslim immigrants are like that. Some of the followers of the "Religion of Peace" (TM) are actually peaceful people who work as Uber drivers or run shawarma shops or halal butcheries. But with a federal election almost certain to be called for the fall, and immigration being a top-of-the-mind issue for Canuck voters (so much so that pollsters won't even ask about it -- M-106), M Trudeau will probably not show up for a photo-op with the next planeload.

UPDATE ADDED 29/7/21:  Toronto Police are looking for the public's help in find someone who our old friend Mark Steyn would call "yet another Mohammed". Mohammed Maboob is a suspect in an investigation into two instances of sexual assault that took place over the course of this summer. 

It is alleged that on June 9th, a 49-year-old woman was sexually assaulted in the Firvalley Court and Warden Avenue area. In a second incident, police say a 27-year-old woman was sexually assaulted in the Victoria Park and Danforth avenues area. 

Mr Maboob, age 55 [Really? 55?! Ed.] is wanted for two counts of sexual assault and one count of fail to comply with a release order. (That means he was already out on bail.) Police have said nothing about his ethnicity, religion or immigration status.

VIDEO: "Allahu akbar!" in Germany - Somali kills 3 wounds 6

Never a week goes by without an Islamic terrorist attack somewhere in Europe or North America. We don't see them all because such attacks are so commonplace now that the lickspittle media either don't report them, or downplay the ethnicity and religion of the perp. 

But an attack in Germany yesterday was too gross to be ignored. In the Bavarian city of Wuerzburg, a 24-year-old Somali "refigee" -- one of a million or so welcomed by Angela Merkel  in 2015 -- armed with a long knife [a scimitar? Ed.] killed three people and wounded six others. Here's the video from the Germany's state broadcaster, Deutsche Welle.

   

Following the German government's standing orders not to provide any information which might stoke the fires of Islamophobia, DW declined to name the perpetrator ["Mohammed", perhaps? Ed.], although die Polizei had known all about him for some time.

We don't know his name, but we do have a picture, scraped from a video which circulated briefly on the Internet before German authorities censored it, "out of respect for the victims", one of whom can be seen lying on the ground to the left of the killer.

According to a Bavarian security official, the attacker had lived in Wuerzburg since 2015, most recently in a shelter for the homeless. He had been admitted to a psychiatric unit a few days earlier. 

Investigators say they are "looking into" the motivation for the attack. Without conceding that the perp is a follower of the Prophet, a police spokesthingy aid the suspect spokes is not known to the police for crimes that "lean in the direction of Islamic extremism... But naturally, we need to compile all the evidence that we can."

"In any case, there is circumstantial evidence that this could have been an Islamist attack," he continued, citing a witness who alleged that the attacker had shouted the Arabic phrase "Allahu Akbar!" which means "God is great!" You'd think that would be enough to establish the motive, but of course no politically correct German would want to jump to that conclusion.

Refugee leaders meet British PM over housing crisis

 A kind reader has sent us this photo, taken from a well-known British magazine, showing what he says is a group of Sikh gentlemen exiting No. 10 Downing Street, supposedly following a meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Note from Ed.: The scan is a bit yellowish, so I'm wondering if it is less than recent, but with the Stanley Cup finals getting under way on the 28th, no-one here has any time to fact check.

"American man" murdered in Toronto

Agent 3 sent us reports of two crime stories which were carried -- edited for political correctness -- by Toronto's controlled media for less than 24 hours yesterday. Black on black crime is not a big deal in Toronto the Good. I'm posting the story here more for what it says about the obvious liberal bias of the Canuck media when it comes to matters of race and immigration. So then... 

Meet Mohamed Jeylani, who died on Wednesdsay afternoon after a stabbing in Scarborough, the eastern part of Toronto, the most multicultural city in the world (according to Mayor John Jello.) He was identified by all three of the city's major news outlets --CTV, CBC and Global TV -- as "a man from the United States". He was from an unidentified city in Minnesota, likely not unadjacent to Minneapolis, which is home to a large community of Somali refugees "new Americans".

Inspector Knacker of the Metropolitan Police said his minions were searching for a man believed to be about 20 to 25 years old, 5' 11", with a thin build. He was last seen wearing a dark hooded top and light-coloured pants at the time of the stabbing. The identifying factor which was omitted from the CBC and Global reports, and quickly deleted from the CTV story, is that the suspect was, errr, black.

Mr Jeylani's death was Toronto's first homicide of 2021. That it was so late in the new year must be one of the benefits of the Covid "crisis" lockdown!

Walt wonders what this "American man" was doing in Toronto. In theory, the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM) is closed, except for "essential workers" or others who are exempt because they are needed in both countries. Like hockey players. I wonder what kind of "essential work" Mr Jeylani was engaged in.

Last night, CTV reported that Ontario's police watchdog has been called in to investigate after a man was shot during an interaction with Toronto police. The cops spotted a "a vehicle of interest" in the parking lot of Church’s Chicken (!), near Midland Avenue and Eglinton Avenue East, the very same part of Scarberia where the homicide occurred.

As officers attempted to block in the vehicle, the vehicle rammed into the police vehicles. An "interaction" follwed, the Special Investigations Unit said, and "an officer discharged their[sic] firearm" and struck one of two people they were investigating. The two individuals were later taken into custody, police said. A 31-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries. Two police officers were also taken to hospital with unknown injuries. 

Inspector Singh (Hey, it's Toronto!) said he could not provide further details about the incident, such as the identity of the "individuals". Nor would he comment on a possible link with the stabbing of Mr Jeylani. End of story. Nothing here to see, folks.

"Allahu akbar!" in Paris - second Islamic terrorist attack in three weeks

I've been concentrating on American politics and the 2020 election, so didn't get around to posting this story until today, but thought I'd better do so in case you missed it.

With the trial of the Islamic terrorists who perpetrated the massacre at the offices of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo under way, attacks by mad Muslims have become so commonplace that it's possible to conflate them. Don't. Last week's murder of an innocent schoolteacher was the second in three weeks. Expect more.

Here's the story. On Friday, Samuel Paty, a history teacher, was killed in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, a commune in the northwestern suburbs of Paris. He was beheaded. Decapitated. Had his head severed from his body.

The perpetrator, shot dead by police soon after the atttack, has been identified just today as Aboulakh Anzorov, an 18-year-old "refugee" from Chechnya, a part of the Russian Federation located in the North Caucasus. It should be noted that Chechnya is predominantly Muslim, and Islamic terrorism is a persistent problem for the Russians.

French authorities figure the unnamed teen was the one who did the deed because he posted on social media a photo of the victim and a text claiming responsibility. The investigating prosecutor said these were found on the suspect's phone. He also confirmed that a Twitter account under the name "Abdoulakh A" [not "Mohammed"? Ed.] belonged to the suspect. That's where a photo of the decapitated head was posted minutes after the attack, along with the message, "I have executed one of the dogs from hell who dared to put Muhammad down."

Aha! There's the motive! Police officials say M Paty's discussion with his class of caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed had led to threats. The teenager had approached pupils in the street and asked them to point out his victim, they said. The suspect had been seen at the school asking students about the teacher, and the school's headmaster had received several threatening phone calls.

According to police, the suspect's half-sister joined the Islamic State group in Syria in 2014. They didn't give her name, and apparently don't know where she is now. However, in the classic French ploy of rounding up the usual suspects (see Casablanca), the anti-terrorism prosecutors have now arrested nine suspects, including the teen's grandfather, parents and 17-year-old brother.

French President Emmanual Macron is usually painfully politically correct about these things, so I'll give him full marks this time for denouncing, while visiting the school Friday night, what he called an "Islamist terrorist attack." He urged the nation to stand united against extremism. 

Said M Le Président, "One of our compatriots was murdered today because he taught...the freedom of expression, the freedom to believe or not believe." 

Walt's thought for the day: Standing up for freedom of expression seems like a good idea to me. Of course no-one in North America is going to be beheaded for doing so... right? Not by Muslims, anyway. See "Conservatives staging free speech rally attacked by critics" (read: Antifa), APNews, 18/10/20.

Canada finds 400 "asylum-seekers" ineligible... out of over 12,000

Believe It Or Not Dept: The Toronto [Red] Star, not owned but still controlled by Canada's Liberal government, reported this week that "New asylum laws to restrict flow of migrants from US yield few results". Believe it or not!

In June of 2019, with a federal election looming and anti-immigrant (and especially anti-"refugee") backlash mounting, the alleged government of Just In Trudeau put into effect measures (buried in April's "omnibus budget") which were supposed to prevent refugees from seeking protection in Canada if they have made similar claims in other countries. That was supposed to discourage Nigerians, Haitians and other bogus refugees from jumping across the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM) at such notorious crossing points as Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle QC.

The Honourable Bill Blair, "Minister of Border Security" and former chief of the Toronto Police "Service" told the meeja, when the changes were introduced, "We've been working very hard over the past several months to significantly reduce the number of people who are crossing our borders irregularly." That was, of course, a steaming load of horseshit, since the Liberals depend on 1000s of "instant Canadians" to vote for them in places like Toronto, Montréal and Vancouver.

The government's own figures, revealed now in the Star's exclusive, put the lie to Mr Blair's statement. Since Still-President Donald Trump took office in January 2017, more than 50,000 "irregular migrants" (government-speak for "illegal border jumpers") crossed the land border at places like Lacolle and Emerson MB, claiming asylum in Canada. As of September 2019, there were still 29,000 claims to be heard and determined.

Statistics from the Ministry of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship [sic] show that some 12,000 asylum claims were made from January to September of this year alone. The number of claimants deemed ineligible since 21 June 2019, when the "new" rules took effect, is... wait for it... 400. That's right -- four hundred out of 12,000.

The Star says the Ministry for Refugees did not track asylum-seekers who had made claims in other countries, so the new policy did not set a target. However, 400 is a much lower number than that anticipated by "migrant rights" groups who were critical of the policy change. "We were surprised to see the low number," said Janet Dench (no relation to Judy), of the Canadian Council for Refugees. "It is not clear how [the policy] helps by denying refugees access to the Immigration and Refugee Board. From our perspective, this is for the government to send the message that you are not welcomed here and we don't want you here."

Well yes, that's the message the Canadian people want to see given out, and that's what the Liberals are pretending to be saying. But, as with almost everything M Trudeau and company say, the truth is something quite different.
