if you're wondering what's going on in Canada, our Liberal party have become Conservatives, and Conservatives are losing their minds over ostriches

Well, if you’re a fan of big government spending, then this is the budget for you.

In addition, if you believe huge government intervention into the economy is necessary and good, well, you’ve got the budget of your dreams.

My quick summary before my colleagues at Moodys Tax and I provide our usual summary - not the government summary.

Economic Highlights

-If you want to play a drinking game by taking a shot of alcohol for every time the budget mentions the word “invest” and the vacuous phrase “spend less to invest more”, you will be on the floor very quickly and likely only to get through less than 10% of the 493 page budget document (not including the Notice of Ways and Means Motion);

-Projected total deficit for the fiscal year (purposely ignoring the deceptive “capital” vs “operating” budget) is $78.3 billion for the current year slowing decreasing to $57.9 billion for 2028-29. This is simple recklessness;

-Public debt charges are expected to increase from $55.6 billion in 2025-26 to $76.1 billion in 2029-30. Wow. That’s a $20.5 billion projected increase in 5 years or 36.9%. Again, that is reckless;

-Total spending cuts is apparently going to be $60 billion over the next 5 years. From the budget: “From a peak of almost 368,000 in 2023-24, the public service population is expected to reach roughly 330,000 by the end of 2028-29—a decline of about 40,000 positions or 10 per cent.” These are not the deep cuts that many were asking for especially when you consider the new spending; and

-The spending in this budget is eye-popping - $126 billion in overall new spending. Again, if you like government intervention, you’ll love what the government is “investing” in;

Tax Highlights

-No personal or corporate tax rate adjustments;
-No “expert” corporate tax review as promised;
-The elimination of the Underused Housing Tax for 2025 forward. This was a ridiculous tax and its elimination is welcome;
-The elimination of the luxury tax for aircraft and boats but not automobiles (not sure why the retention….this should be eliminated as well);
-A commitment to implement the increased capital gains deduction of $1.25 million effective June 25, 2024;
-No statement as to whether or not the Canadian Entrepreneur’s Incentive – as originally announced in the 2024 budget – will move forward. Given this, it appears that this initiative is dead;
-A proposal to “limit the deferral of refundable tax on investment income through the use of tiered corporate structures with staggered year ends”;
-Reinstatement of the Accelerated Investment Incentive, which provides an enhanced first-year write-off for most capital assets and other adjustments;
-Progress on automatic tax filing for certain low-income Canadians; and
-A new temporary “Personal Support Workers Tax Credit” effective for 2026 and for a further four years.

My two cents: this is a horrible budget that will cripple our future generations.

To My Fellow Muslims in Nigeria 🇳🇬

Let’s be honest with ourselves no emotion, no sentiment, just truth.

Yes, Muslims have also been killed in this country. Nobody denies that. We’ve lost innocent lives in mosques, villages, and marketplaces from Zamfara to Borno. But let’s stop twisting facts: who are the killers?

Are they Christians? No.
Are they Jews? No.
Are they Buddhists? No.
They are Jihadists extremists who hide under the name of Islam to slaughter both Christians and Muslims who disagree with their madness.

So when Christians cry out that they are being massacred because of their faith, let’s stop rushing to say “Muslims are victims too.” That’s not the point. Christians are being targeted in the name of religion. Muslims are being killed for refusing to join in the madness. Both are victims but the ideology behind the killing wears a Jihadist face, not a Christian one.

No Christian has ever killed a Muslim in this country in the name of Jesus (pbuh). But how many times have we seen mobs shouting “Allahu Akbar” while burning churches and murdering innocent people? From Borno to Jos Plateau, from Kaduna to Yola these things happened, and we all know it.

Remember Deborah Yakubu in Sokoto?
She was lynched in broad daylight and many Muslims, including lawyers, defended her killers. That was the moment Nigeria lost its moral compass. Instead of defending justice, we defended evil because the victim was a Christian and the killers were Muslims.

That’s why the world no longer takes our defense seriously. We can’t claim to be victims while defending the monsters among us.

Until Muslims in Nigeria openly condemn and fight Jihadists with the same energy they defend Islam, this bloodshed will never end. Every time you justify or stay silent, you’re empowering those who destroy our image and faith.

Let’s stop being hypocritical. This isn’t about defending religion it’s about saving our humanity. Islam means peace, but too many people have turned it into a weapon.

We must unite Muslims and Christians against the Jihadists who have hijacked our country. Enough is enough. Silence is no longer an option.

@aonanuga1956 Baba just tagging you to refresh your memory about Deborah .

[Dr. Leslyn Lewis @LeslynLewis]

It’s deeply concerning to hear a Liberal MP and former Cabinet Minister declare that passages of the Bible are "clearly hateful."

When government puts itself in the position to deem portions of sacred texts as hate, that is no longer public policy - it is policing belief.

Our Charter exists to safeguard our freedoms. We should expect our leaders to uphold those protections, not undermine them.

The world requests and needs clean CDN energy. We the ppl demand unleashing of all our energy sectors with pipelines and massive investments into distribution infrastructure. Scrap punitive energy policies NOW!

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Canada has what the world wants — the resources, the ambition, and the ideas.

Budget 2025 invests $1.7 billion to attract new talent, catalyse new research, and unlock our full economic potential.

$105,000 for a study examining the life cycle of a grocery cart.

$20,000 for a study focusing on the gender politics of Peruvian rock music.

$94,000 toward a study entitled “Rhetoric of the selfie” which explores online self-representation, including fat fashion on Instagram and “social justice selfies.”

How can the government justify spending your hard-earned money on crap like this?

Especially when we are running massive deficits and our health care system is in desperate need of additional support?

If this is accurate, it would be as much as 19 or 20% of current federal employment—or roughly 63% of the 110,000 jobs added in the Trudeau years. The net effect: Ottawa's public service would essentially be back to its Harper-era footprint.

Similarly, on immigration, if reports hold, the Carney government will largely restore Harper-era intake levels.

The upshot: Prime Minister Carney’s early legacy may be to unwind the policy excesses of the Trudeau interregnum and reaffirm the core assumptions of the Harper years.

[Oloye. @Ol0ye]

Do you know how gangsta you have to be in your faith to watch islamist terrorist kill your children, rape your women and burn your churches in a bid to force to to renounce your religion and you still turn up to church to worship God.

There's nothing more brave than this.

May the Almighty God hear their cries and may the host of heavens situate in the hearts of men to fight their battles. Amen.
