🇨🇦 MARK CARNEY SAYS CANADA IS “THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD TO BE A REGULAR PERSON.”

Wonderful. Let’s meet this mythical regular Canadian.

Not a billionaire. Not a trust-fund beneficiary. Not someone with three investment properties.

Just an ordinary Ontario taxpayer earning $120,000 a year, trying to raise a family, own a modest home, and perhaps commit the outrageous act of saving for retirement.

In Ottawa, $120,000 sounds like prosperity.
In the real world, it’s a remarkable opportunity for everyone else to get paid.

Let’s follow the money.

YOUR $120,000 SALARY — 2026

🇨🇦 Federal income tax: ~$17,502

🇨🇦 Ontario income tax, including surtax: ~$8,636

🇨🇦 Ontario Health Premium: $750

🇨🇦 CPP contributions: ~$4,646

🇨🇦 Employment Insurance: ~$1,123

TOTAL PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS: $32,657.

Congratulations. Before you’ve bought a loaf of bread, paid your mortgage, or turned on a light, roughly 27% of your gross income has already been deducted.

You now have approximately $87,343 left.
And this is where the Canadian dream gets really expensive.

Own a home? Property taxes.

Buy taxable goods or services? Another 13% HST in Ontario.

Fill your car? Federal and provincial fuel taxes are already embedded in the price.

Insure your car? Pay the premium.

Insure your home? Another premium.

Heat your house? Pay the utility company.

Need child care? Open your wallet.

Need groceries? Statistics Canada says grocery prices have risen 33% since September 2020.

And remember, insurance, food inflation, and child care aren’t taxes. They’re simply the other bills arriving after the tax collector has finished.

Now consider one illustrative annual budget for that $120,000 Ontario household:

🏠 Mortgage payments: $33,600

🏡 Property taxes: $5,300

🥦 Groceries: $13,000

👶 Child care: $10,800

🚗 Auto and home insurance: $5,000

⚡ Utilities, internet and phones: $6,000

⛽ Transportation, fuel and maintenance: $7,200

🛒 Clothing, household supplies and other essentials: $6,000

TOTAL HOUSEHOLD EXPENSES: $86,900.

These are illustrative costs, not national averages, and applicable sales taxes are included rather than added twice.

AMOUNT LEFT FROM $120,000 GROSS INCOME: $443 A YEAR.

That’s approximately $37 a month.

Before a vacation.

Before a major home repair.

Before an emergency.

Before meaningfully contributing to your child’s education or your own retirement.

Now imagine what happens to the family earning $70,000.

Or the single parent working two jobs.

Or the young couple who cannot afford the down payment on the home their parents bought with one income.

And then imagine being lectured by the Prime Minister about how extraordinary life is for ordinary Canadians.

Here’s the intellectual dishonesty in modern Canadian politics:

Governments love measuring prosperity by how much people earn. Families measure it by how much they can keep, afford and save.

Those are two very different economic realities.

A six-figure salary used to signal financial security.

Today, in some Canadian households, it merely qualifies you to participate in a more expensive version of financial insecurity.

And yes, taxes fund hospitals, schools, infrastructure and pensions. Canadians understand that.

What they’re entitled to ask is whether the price they’re paying is producing the quality of life they’re being promised.

Because a country cannot indefinitely celebrate its standard of living while ordinary people struggle to maintain it.

The government gets the first deduction. The bank gets the mortgage payment. The insurer gets its premium. The grocery store gets what’s left.

And the Prime Minister gets to give a speech about how lucky you are.

Perhaps Canada really is the greatest country in the world to be a regular person.

Patriotism is loving your country. Accountability is demanding that your country work for the people who pay taxes

🫵🏻If you have been silent, speak today.

Said faces life or death tomorrow on charges of leading a group that does not exist.

He refused to renounce Jesus. They tortured him.

They still deny him proper medical care.

TOMORROW: Egyptian Christian convert Said Mansour Rezk faces final arguments before Egypt's Terrorism Court. His "crime"? Converting from Islam to Christianity in 2016 and trying to change his religious ID.

Since his conversion, Said has endured severe and sustained persecution by state authorities: arbitrary arrests, horrific torture (including being hung in a "crucifixion" position), forced divorce, separation from his young son, and a complete denial of medical care and legal representation.

Now, weaponized anti-terrorism laws leave him facing life imprisonment or a death sentence.

An innocent man is condemned for his faith. Please spread his story. Demand justice. https://t.co/UEZ8DL1QsD

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

Terrifying, an entire battalion of thousands of Islamic terrorists is on its way to attack Christian villages in Nigeria.

They literally chant for the murder of Christians:

“Give me AK-47s. Into the infidels. On a Sunday. While they are rejoicing and clapping, spray fire on them!”

The media remains silent.

[Brittnie. @DistantDiaspora]

Ethiopia 🇪🇹✝️ is witnessing one of the worst ethnic wars in human history
This heartbreaking scene shows the body of a Christian Amhara woman and her injured daughter, who was killed by Oromo ethnic gangs of Muslim majority in the disputed Wellega East region between the Amhara and Oromo ethnicities💔

Please pray for our brothers and sisters in Ethopia 🙏🙏

#EndChristianPersecution
#EndChristianGenocide

[Mor Edge Insight @MorEdge_Insight]

This is what a real genocide looks like. Islamist jihadists slaughtered an entire Christian community in Nigeria and praised Allah over the bodies. The media stays silent. You won’t find a single protest. When Jews defend themselves against these Islamist jihadists, the world burns. When Christians are butchered by the same Islamist ideology, the world looks away. That’s the truth.

[cbcwatcher @cbcwatcher]

CBC deliberately inverted the story

They opened with: “Israel has closed off the West Bank after Israeli soldiers shot and killed two Palestinians near Hebron.”

The actual sequence—that two armed men from Hebron drove up, got out of the car, and opened fire on the checkpoint, triggering a 20-minute gun battle in which the attackers were killed—was buried nearly two and a half minutes in. Only then did viewers learn about the large quantity of weapons and ammunition, Israeli officials saying the pair were planning a major attack on civilians, and Hamas praising the “high-impact operation” while calling for more violence.

BBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and The Times of Israel all led with the attack itself. CBC chose not to.

This is not neutral sequencing. Leading with the Israeli response while delaying the fact that the dead men initiated a terrorist attack is a classic framing choice that makes the aggressors look like victims—days before Israel’s election @brodiefenlon

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo is seen crying as he has to bury another 7 Nigerian Christians murdered by Islamists.

Where is the outrage?

[Vivid.🇮🇱 @VividProwess]

Everywhere you see this flag 🇵🇸, you see chaos, terrorism, and violence.

I wonder why?

[Steve Deace @SteveDeaceShow]

Nobody here believes in a prophetic Israel. But all of them believe in a make believe place called Palestine.

[Defiant L’s @DefiantLs]

I haven't seen anyone reporting on this

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

Don’t stop talking about the mass slaughter of Christians by Islamists in Nigeria.

[Dr. Eli David @DrEliDavid]

The cycle of violence in France must stop. Israel is calling on BOTH sides to show restraint, and engage in negotiations for a two-state solution.

[Wolfgang Tietze @WolfgangTietze3]

Good morning from Berlin; I could really do with more followers, as I believe my research is important in shedding some light on the one-sided reporting of the last three years. These are not just ordinary articles; they are, above all, reports on my research. These reports correct some of the lies being spread about Israel and reveal what actually happened – and is still happening – in Gaza. My reports are based almost exclusively on material that Hamas supporters themselves published in the days following 7 October, but which they quickly and thoroughly deleted shortly afterwards. Please help by sharing these articles, as none of the mainstream media are publishing my research. Many thanks

This is horrific. I hope whoever filmed this helped the toddler and didn’t just stop to film him. God help that little boy.

Where is the world’s outrage??? Where are the tent encampments? The rallies? The marches? The bullhorns?

[Lara Logan @laralogan]

Christians are being persecuted in Nigeria’s northern villages. This has been a sustained assault over more than 25 years. Over a hundred thousand have been murdered and many ,ore driven from their land. Churches are being burned across the Nigeria & the west. Christianity and Christian countries are being overrun and still people are sitting at home worrying about their daily lives & not paying attention.

[(((Coca Camhi))) @CocaCamhi]

Hola, soy palestino. 🇵🇸
Y como la honestidad es poco común en mi política, permítanme confesar algunas cosas.

1947. La ONU me ofreció un estado. Junto a Israel. Fronteras, independencia, reconocimiento. Dije que no. Mis líderes prometieron que la guerra "arrojaría a los judíos al mar". En cambio, lo perdí todo y lo llamaron catástrofe. No porque no me ofrecieran un estado, sino porque lo rechacé.

1948–2025. Los estados árabes podrían haberme integrado, dado derechos, pasaportes, dignidad. En cambio, me encerraron en campos de refugiados durante generaciones, para que siguiera siendo un arma contra Israel. Construyeron palacios para ellos y cárceles para mí. Me usaron como propaganda, no como personas.

1967. Tras otra guerra perdida, podría haber construido un estado en Cisjordania y Gaza. En cambio, insistí en "ni paz, ni reconocimiento, ni negociaciones". Tres noes. Cincuenta años después, sigo sin Estado. Resulta que el rechazo no paga el alquiler.

Oslo, década de 1990. Israel dijo: «Intentémoslo». Me dio autonomía. Armas para la policía. Miles de millones en ayuda. ¿Qué hicieron mis líderes? Robaron el dinero, armaron milicias y lanzaron una intifada. Atentados suicidas en lugar de escuelas. Cohetes en lugar de fábricas.

Gaza, 2005. Israel se fue por completo. Sin colonos, sin soldados. Tuve la oportunidad de convertir Gaza en un Singapur mediterráneo. Voté por Hamás. La convirtieron en Mogadiscio junto al mar. ¿Miles de millones en ayuda? Túneles, cohetes y palacios para sus líderes, mientras mi gente come comida enlatada en la oscuridad.

¿Democracia? No he tenido elecciones en casi 20 años. Hamás mata a los disidentes en Gaza. Fatah los encarcela en Cisjordania. Mis líderes cancelan elecciones porque están demasiado ocupados luchando por el poder.

Religión. En lugar de construir un futuro, pongo a clérigos en televisión enseñando a los niños a odiar a los judíos. Glorifico a los "mártires" que hacen estallar autobuses. Crío a mis hijos con canciones de sangre y fuego en lugar de libros y ciencia. Cambio la esperanza por la guerra santa.

Mundo árabe. Los regímenes árabes me llaman "hermano". Pero pregúntenles cuántos palestinos pueden vivir libremente en Líbano, Siria, Egipto o Kuwait. Me excluyen, pero celebran mi muerte, porque mi muerte es su excusa.

Absurdo. Sigo diciendo que quiero "construir un estado". E irónicamente, justo al lado está Israel: el vecino que construyó una democracia próspera, una potencia tecnológica, granjas en el desierto, ciudades de polvo. Sin petróleo, sin riqueza infinita, solo coraje. Podría haber aprendido, copiado, colaborado. En cambio, elegí la envidia y la rabia.

Obsesión antijudía. Podría haber aceptado a los judíos como vecinos. Podría haber dicho: "Dos naciones, dos estados". En cambio, repito: "Del río al mar". En lugar de exhibir el honor, la hospitalidad y la rica cultura árabe, mostré solo la cultura de la espada: la ira, el extremismo y la sangre. En lugar de gritar salaam (paz) a los israelíes, grité muerte a los judíos. Y luego finjo sorprenderme cuando los israelíes no confían en mí, cuando están enojados, decepcionados y convencidos de que no quiero coexistencia en absoluto.

Responsabilidad. Culpo a Israel de todo. Siempre. ¿Mis líderes roban miles de millones? Culpa de Israel. ¿Hamás dispara cohetes desde hospitales? Culpa de Israel. ¿Glorifico la muerte más que la vida? Culpa de Israel. La responsabilidad no es mi fuerte.

Soy palestino.
Podría haber construido una nación, muchas veces. Elegí el rechazo, la corrupción y la guerra sin fin. Podría haber vivido en paz con Israel, pero elegí vivir a la sombra de su destrucción.

Así que sí, soy una víctima. Pero con demasiada frecuencia, soy víctima de mis propios líderes, de mis propias decisiones y de mi propia negativa a abandonar el odio.

Y esa, querido lector, es la tragedia que nadie quiere admitir.

[Sean Feucht @seanfeucht]

Parading dead Jewish teens in the back of a pickup truck in broad daylight through Gaza while crowds of men, women and children while beating their lifeless bodies and cheering is peak Palestinian behavior.

Never forget October 7th.

[Queen Bee @KingBobIIV]

Nigeria poses a problem for the West. The West cant say anything because they're all black, all African. Nobody can be accused of racism. They are all the same race, just different tribes, and cultures, they just have different religions, but the Christians are being massacred for theirs. Not for anything else than their love of Jesus. So, in stead of marches and documentaries, about the massacred women and children and men, the mass kidnapping and rapes of little girls and women, they simply pretend it isnt happening.
Who are we anymore.
