Liberals are about to launch a campaign for MASS IMMIGRATION into Canada? WTF⁉️

"We're also preparing to launch a targeted advertising campaign for international, or internationally, so that people are aware of what's available in Canada, and there can be those closer links to the great life here, the opportunities here, and links into employers as well."

Insanity!

A crisis hotline because OneBC is in town?
Is this how fragile FN people are???

This reminds of the time a university set up a safe room with things like colouring and playdough for students because a conservative speaker was coming to campus.

Just utterly pathetic.

Stellen Sie sich vor:
— Ihre 12-jährige Tochter wurde gestern von vier farbigen Männern mehrfach vergewaltigt.
— Sie gehen mit ihr zur Polizei und erstatten Anzeige.
— Die Beamten sind nicht bereit, die Anzeige entgegenzunehmen.
— In Ihrer Verzweiflung beschreiben Sie das Vorgefallene in den sozialen Medien.
— Zwei Tage später werden Sie deswegen von der Polizei abgeholt und ins Gefängnis gesteckt. Ein Richter verurteilt Sie zu einer unbedingten Gefängnisstrafe.
— Die Täter werden nicht behelligt.
— Im Parlament wird dieses Vorgehen mit grosser Mehrheit gutgeheissen, weil man nicht islamophob sein wolle.
Das hat sich in Grossbritannien hundertfach so zugetragen, und das Unterhaus in London hat vor wenigen Tagen so entschieden.

Federal immigration officials just said the Liberals are planning a new taxpayer funded international advertising campaign to bring more foreign nationals to Canada to work.

They're doing this the middle of a youth jobs crisis and a recession.

Sagan’s warning fits Carney perfectly.

The danger is not just ignorance. The danger is ignorance managed by credentialed power.

Carney represents the modern technocrat: fluent in the language of science, finance, climate models, AI, central banking, global governance, and “expert consensus.” But the ordinary Canadian is supposed to nod along while the country gets poorer, less productive, more indebted, more regulated, and more dependent on systems almost nobody can challenge.

That is the combustible mixture Sagan warned about: immense technical power in the hands of a few, while citizens are told they are too uninformed to question the plan.

Carney talks about AI, climate, productivity, investment, and global competitiveness. OK. But Canada is now in a technical recession, and Carney himself has warned that the data will be “uneven” as his government pushes reforms. Reuters also reported his AI strategy promises 250,000 jobs by 2031 and a 3% GDP boost, which sounds lovely, but Canadians have heard glossy Liberal promises before.

The Stoic questions are simple:

What is true?
What is proven?
What is assumed?
Who pays if this fails?
Who gets protected from the consequences?

Science is a way of thinking, not a costume for political authority. You do not get to wrap ideology in graphs and call it wisdom.

Canada does not need more priesthood politics, where the public is told to trust the experts while food banks grow, productivity sinks, housing becomes absurd, and young people wonder if adulthood has been priced out of reach.

A Stoic citizen does not reject expertise. He tests it.

Carney may be brilliant. That does not make him right. Intelligence without humility becomes arrogance. Expertise without accountability becomes rule by managers. And power without public understanding becomes exactly what Sagan feared.

My hard line:

Do not confuse credentials with wisdom. Do not confuse models with reality. Do not confuse technocratic confidence with truth. A free country needs citizens who can question power, especially when power speaks in polished sentences and calls itself science.

Today Tom Mulcair says a recession is a recession & it’s time for the Government to accept it & wear it.

He’s also not listening to Champagne & his economy nonsense, he’s listening to what the PBO Annette Ryan is telling Canadians as it’s clearly the correct picture of our economy. Quite telling

SpaceX: 53 satellites in 19 hours.

Liberals gave $2 billion to Telesat to compete with Starlink.

0 satellites in space, their goal is 35.

But they need SpaceX to launch them.

THEY NEED THE COMPANY THEY WANT TO COMPETE WITH, TO LAUNCH THE SATELLITES 😭

🚨 SOCIALIST SEATTLE MAYOR CRIES as Largest Bagel Franchise OFFICIALLY Shuts Down For Good! 🔥 👉

After 25 years and serving over 7 million bagels, Blazing Bagels — Seattle’s iconic local chain with 5 locations — has collapsed. Employees were stunned when they received a sudden email Thursday night: effective immediately, all locations closed, no warning, no severance.

The family business survived recessions and a pandemic, but couldn’t survive Seattle’s crushing $21.30 minimum wage, skyrocketing taxes, and anti-business policies. With downtown office vacancy at a record 35.6%, more restaurants are shuttering while Mayor Katie Wilson responds to fleeing businesses with one word: “Bye.”

Hardworking employees are now jobless, and communities are losing beloved institutions.

Is this the final warning for Seattle’s economy?

For every young British person hired since 2020, *27* young migrants from outside of Europe have entered the workforce.

It's completely mad to have so many people coming from abroad, while young people in Britain struggle to find opportunity.

The system is totally broken.

I once dated a girl who told me she’d agree with someone that 2+2=5 if they really believed it.

In her mind, sharing a delusion was better than speaking the truth and risking conflict.

In female-led groups, nonconformity is punished, consensus is rewarded, and dissent is treated as harm.

This is the operating logic of every major institution that now governs us.

[The Independent with Scott Atlas @ScottAtlas_IT]

“The response to speaking the truth at so-called elite universities, including my own @Stanford, was direct censorship, and it was nuanced. There was character assassination, intimidation, and I proudly stand as the only faculty member who received a formal senate censure from the university.”
