🇨🇦 Technically Canada
Where everything is technically fine.
Good morning and TGIF!
It’s been quite a week… so let’s recap.
⸻
💸 Canadian Dollar
The Canadian dollar fell to its weakest level against the U.S. dollar in more than a year.
Don’t worry. I’m sure this is just another “technical” decline.
⸻
📱 Bill C-22
Bill C-22 passed Parliament this week.
Supporters say it’s about helping law enforcement.
Critics say it’s another step toward expanded government access to digital information.
As usual, Canadians are being told not to worry.
⸻
🛒 Food Inflation
Canada is back on top of the G7 food inflation rankings.
Food prices rose 3.8% in May, the highest in the G7, according to Statistics Canada.
Finally, we’re number one at something. 🇨🇦🥇
⸻
🏗️ Housing
British Columbia announced a $3.2 billion plan to purchase more than 2,200 unsold condo units and convert them into below-market rentals.
Housing is unaffordable.
Young people can’t buy homes.
The government is buying unsold condos.
Everything is technically working exactly as planned.
⸻
🚄 High-Speed Bonus Rail
Executives on Canada’s high-speed rail project received $2.8 million in bonuses.
The train may not have left the station, but the bonuses sure did.
⸻
🏡 24 Sussex
The Prime Minister’s official residence is getting a fundraising campaign.
Who had “GoFundMe for 24 Sussex” on their 2026 bingo card?
⸻
🗳️ Hot Mic
Mark Carney was caught on a hot mic joking that MPs are “only useful for votes.”
Somewhere, a backbench MP quietly updated their LinkedIn profile.
⸻
🎓 Iranian Scholarship Controversy
A senator raised concerns after an Iranian national with alleged ties to Iran’s missile program received a scholarship to study aerospace engineering at Carleton University.
That wasn’t on the campus tour brochure.
⸻
🌳 Trees Have Rights Now
A Quebec town officially recognized trees as sentient living beings with their own rights.
The trees have remained silent on the matter. 🌳
⸻
🌴 Foreign Aid
Canada announced $35 million to help tackle Haiti’s gang crisis.
Apparently there’s still money somewhere.
⸻
📢 Regina
Regina tested an Islamic call to prayer broadcast.
The debate was louder than the loudspeaker.
⸻
🏆 World Cup Bong
FIFA told a Toronto shop to stop selling a World Cup trophy bong.
This might be the most Canadian headline of the week. 🍁🏆
⸻
🚨 Public Safety
This week, a shooting in Montreal claimed the lives of a police officer, a civilian, and the gunman. Another officer was seriously injured.
Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the Montreal police community.
⸻
🤖 Grok Answer of the Week
I asked Grok:
Describe Canada in three words. Unhinged answer. No sugarcoating.
It replied:
“Woke. Broke. Frozen.”
No further questions.
⸻
Thanks for reading another edition of Technically Canada.
Where everything is technically fine.
Have a great weekend! ☕
We went to my middle daughter’s grade 8 graduation last night.
They didn’t play the national anthem but they made sure to give a one minute land acknowledgment.
It’s long past time to end this virtue signaling nonsense.
Chiefs Wanted Schools
Michelle Stirling presents compelling historical evidence that challenges today’s dominant narrative surrounding residential schools in Canada.
Stirling explains that many chiefs and councils wanted schools for their children and that education was included as part of treaty obligations between Indigenous peoples and the Crown. Rather than the simplified story often presented today, she argues that residential schools were created, in part, because chiefs wanted their children educated and believed schooling would provide opportunity for future generations.
This clip raises important questions about how history is being told, what evidence is being ignored, and why Canadians are often given only one side of the residential school story.
Watch the full discussion for a deeper look at the documents, treaty obligations, historical context, and unanswered questions behind one of Canada’s most controversial topics.

The moral case for Alberta independence begins with accountability.
Ottawa is too distant, too centralized and too comfortable with a political culture where insiders, consultants, lobbyists and favoured interests feed off federal spending with little consequence.
The worst corruption is not always what is illegal. It is what the system permits, rewards and normalizes.
Government should be close enough to the people that citizens can see it, judge it and hold it to account. Alberta should not be ruled from a capital thousands of kilometres away by a permanent political class we cannot meaningfully discipline.
Cutting out one vast, unaccountable layer of government is not just practical. It is moral.
Time for you to defend your thesis that the schools are responsible for the loss of native languages and culture. We know only a third of the status Indian kids went to the schools, but all the native languages atrophied. How come they didn't survive and flourish in non-res school families? The same reason Yiddish didn't survive (except in greenhouse form) but Hebrew did. a) Hebrew was always a sacred language of prayer and study, even in exile, and of course *written down* and b) it became the official language (once again) of the newly decolonized state of Israel. Languages flourish when they are necessary for getting ahead in a society. They atrophy (as spoken languages) when they only serve the social comfort of the generation that never became fluent in the replacement language that ensures success. Canada's Indigenous languages were bound to atrophy because that's the way it is in history. Blaming the res schools makes no sense. Those students did not forget their languages. But their children or grandchildren did, because their generation did not make language conservation their priority. It's up to the people for whom a language a precious to do the heavy lifting on preservation.
If they were forced, how come only a third attended? How come every child had a record that included a signed permission form from parents? Why is bilingualism considered an asset for everyone but Indigenous kids? They learned English but also continued to speak their own language at home.
85% of Muslim refugees refuse to head to other Muslim countries, even though there are 55 Muslim nations available.
You know why they head to Christian nations instead?
To change and conquer them.
And they’re achieving it by exploiting our own laws.
It’s called conquest through domination.
They follow a very straightforward yet truly brilliant strategy:
Infiltrate, populate, dominate, never assimilate, establish a caliphate and impose Sharia law.
This is the greatest threat to Western civilization.
Yes. Nobody who condemns the residential schools *ever* addresses the question of what the alternative was to an education that would equip aboriginal children for adult lives of gainful employment and technical skills. Hunting and fishing *forever*?
I don't see it as a scandal. Education of their children was a demand from Indigenous people in treaty negotiations. And when the gov ended the system, many chiefs demanded that they stay open. They were boarding schools. The parents had to give signed permission for them to attend. The only children "forced" to go were orphans and children otherwise at risk. Only a third of status Indians attended. The average stay was 3.5 years. The kids went home for long summer holidays. We must stop catastrophizing the system. All we are allowed to focus on are the abuses; nobody is allowed to talk about the success stories. There is no balance in the reporting.
@WeAreCanProud Somalis just got caught with one of the biggest frauds in US history, our neighbor...and these idiots want to give them a National Day here in Canada?
WT..!🤬
Canadian liberals are a laughing stock globally, they're making enemies with the US.
I'm ashamed to be Canadian today.😔
@junonewscom@glennbeck Thank you for your recent reporting on the decline of Canada. With the exception of independent media in Canada such as @junonewscom and @RebelNewsOnline Cdns are being shielded from the truth and censored for speaking up. Pls continue to expose what is happening here.
