Why blast the Islamic call to prayer over loudspeakers in Canada? We live in a modern society with smartphones. Nobody needs to be told what time it is.
This is a power move by Islamists.
This is also a wake up call for Canadians. Allow it there today and you will be hearing it tomorrow where YOU live.

[Lee Humphrey @tleehumphrey]

This display is absolutely disgusting. The idea that CDN taxpayers are funding an overtly antisemitic anti history museum display is truly offensive!

[Lisa @YoungStreete]

INTERESTING COINCIDENCE 👇🏻👇🏻

The developer getting rescued in Mark Carney’s controversial condo bail out just happens to be a liberal supporter who has hosted multiple fundraisers for Carney.

IMO, the bailout isn’t good policy. It’s a classic case of a Liberal Party ally benefiting from his relationship with Carney and the work he has done to raise money for the Liberal Party.

“Pay for play” going on here and Canadians deserve answers and an ethics investigation.

[Ryan Gerritsen🇨🇦🇳🇱 @ryangerritsen]

There’s a real problem when Governments use every tragedy as an opportunity to push for more control over the people.
It’s literally every single time. All law abiding Canadians magically become horrible people that need to have things taken away from them when one lunatic goes off.

[Tracey Wilson @TWilsonOttawa]

This is wild. Listen to this woman use a press conference about a madman’s crime to rail against legal gun owners in the city of Montreal. There’s no room for people like us who get a daily background check and are RCMP approved.

What a hateful, vile human.

Consider Carney’s catering bill, the BC Government is showing restraint

[Carson Binda @BindaCarson]

WASTE 🚨

B.C. Government offices spent more than $500k at helijet in 2024— the total provincial tax bill for 150 families.

Helijet offers “elevated passenger lounges offering complimentary wine/beer, Nespresso coffee, tea, drinks and snacks.”

[Chris Lang @powersoft_chris]

this is nothing more than a money laundering scheme

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

WOW

Liberals gave a low-cost, $1.4 billion loan, funded by taxpayers, to a First Nations group to develop "affordable" rental housing.

The Liberals called it "a huge difference in the lives of thousands of families."

The rents just dropped:

>3 bed: $9,070/month
>3 bed/3 bath: $9,980/month
>4 bed: $12,500/month

THAT'S $150,000 A YEAR FOR A 4-BEDROOM. 

WHO DEFINES THAT AS AFFORDABLE?

You paid for it. 

You just can't afford to live in it.

And Carney, along with Eby, just bailed out wealthy condo developers who happen to also be donors?

All the signs are there...

[Chris Lang @powersoft_chris]

Obviously this is not simple enough, or the greatest Canadian economist Mark Carney would also be able to figure this out instead of bailing them out

[T.D. Leaker @TdLeaker]

If Condos aren’t selling at “market value”, then they aren’t priced at “market value”.

It’s really that simple.

[Michelle Leahy Ferreri @mferreriptbokaw]

No shit, Sherlock.

The Liberals weaponized Canadians’ hatred of Trump to cling to power while our trade, economy, and sovereignty paid the price.

Their “Buy Canadian” policy was political theatre masquerading as strategy.

This guy isn’t leading. He’s swinging a wrecking ball and calling it progress.

Great work as always @mindingottawa

[Brad Vis @BradleyVis]

Instead of socializing everything, why not drive down prices or build a product people want?

This is absurd and a waste of money.

[Rainbow Carin' 🍉 🌈 @DNArigged]

Fuck this. I don't work my ass off to bail out irresponsible, money hoarding investors who use housing as a money venture.

Canadians went broke paying over-inflated rent costs. These assholes can go broke for making bad decisions. They can pull themselves up by the bootstraps

[wealthmoose @wealthmoose]

Funny how the free market only exists when prices are rising.🇨🇦

When condos stop selling, suddenly taxpayers are expected to step in.

Profits were private.

Losses are public.

That’s not a housing policy.

That’s a bailout.

[wealthmoose @wealthmoose]

When condos were making money, taxpayers didn’t get a cut.

Now they’re losing money, and taxpayers are expected to cover the bill.

Poilievre’s argument is simple: if developers took the risk, developers should take the loss.🇨🇦

[Jason James @jasonjamesbnn]

This is Canada's version of the subprime mortgage crash in 2008. But instead of banks selling bad mortgages, Vancouver's collapse comes as a result of unchecked Chinese money laundering that began at least 30 years ago and extends back as far as 40 years.

When $300,000 condos are suddenly selling for $1 million+ you have a problem. Everyone who lived in Vancouver knew the market was doomed. In order for that type of inflation to continue, the money had to keep flowing. The municipal, provincial and federal governments would have to turn a blind eye or comply with what was happening. The banks would have to facilitate it.

The bubble deflation isn't coming as a result of government crackdowns—they were always more than happy to take their bribes. The banks were perfectly fine moving the money and the developers made billions. Nobody involved grew a conscience at any point.

What happened was the money itself slowed down. They simply ran out of properties to own and Chinese organized crime found other ways to move their cash. They turned Toronto's housing market into another bubble and bought our federal Liberal government via Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney. There's no reason to hide money in real estate if you don't have to.

Now the speculators have stopped speculating, the money launderers are moving onto other schemes and the average family in Vancouver can't begin to afford a million dollar shoebox so nobody is buying.

2500 empty condos in Vancouver. A multi-million dollar pit in Richmond. The right thing to do is let it all implode and allow the market to correct itself. Yes, people will lose money on the value of their homes and condos, but anyone who pays $1 million+ for a 600 sq ft condo should be aware of the risk.

Instead, Carney is going to bail out the developers who were very much part of the money laundering scheme and we're going to pay for it. This will give the bubble another year of life but it will eventually burst, and in the end, Canadians will pay for it again.

[Kevin Pacitti 🇨🇦🇮🇹🇬🇧 @kpac_15]

This country is a joke.
Every single Canadian should be up in arms over this. Even the full blown partisans.
The media won’t say shit, they won’t ask the hard questions.
Liberal voters will stay silent. But this is beyond disgusting.

[Bradshaw @myabradshaw78]

Who are the Developers that need this bailout?? Why won’t they lower the price to get the units sold?? Why can’t these developers take the hit instead of taxpayers?? Just something to think about….

[Sue Mac 🇨🇦 @GreatBig_Sea]

Call me crazy, but if billionaire developers in BC sold their condos below market value, it would open the door for everyday Canadians who are priced out of the market to buy a home.

Doesn’t it make more sense to turn more Canadians into homeowners rather than adding to our national debt and making billionaires even wealthier?

First thing Monday morning call the mayor’s office and demand that this practice discontinue. And keep calling until the appropriate action is taken.

[Lauren Chen @TheLaurenChen]

One of the biggest failures from British police (of which there are many) is the seemingly common dismissal of grooming victims as child "prostitutes"

To be clear, there is no such thing as a "child prostitute"

What there are, instead, are child victims of sexual abuse and human trafficking

How is it not standard policy, when encountering a minor who has been sexualized, to immediately remove them from their environment and conduct an investigation?

[Jon Fraser @JonFraserTF]

If he's able to return even once, then he's not a refugee. This shouldn't even be wasting the court's time - deport him.
