Trudeau Government Hands Telesat $2.14 Billion with Zero Accountability on Delivery
The level of corruption within the Canadian government is incomprehensible. Recently, Telesat was handed 2.14 billion taxpayer dollars to connect Canadian households to high-speed internet—but here’s the catch: there’s no requirement for Telesat to connect a single home, nor any penalties if they fail to deliver.
This isn’t governance, nor is it “investing in Canadians” as Trudeau loves to frame his spending sprees—it’s daylight robbery. And if that’s not bad enough, Elon Musk said Starlink could connect rural Canada for half the cost, yet his proposal was tossed aside. Not because it wasn’t feasible but because he doesn’t fit the ideological mould Trudeau’s government insists upon. They’d rather shovel billions into the pockets of their loyalists than consider a practical, cost-effective solution.
This isn’t an isolated incident. It’s part of a pattern. Take the ArriveCAN app, a project that drained taxpayers of $60 million for an app that should’ve cost $80,000. Or the so-called “green slush fund,” where nearly a third of its billion-dollar budget was funnelled into projects mired in conflicts of interest. Trudeau’s government has mastered the art of siphoning taxpayer money, with the only difference between them and common criminals being the suits and titles they wear while robbing Canadians blind.
People deserve to be behind bars. This isn’t just corruption; it’s an open display of contempt for the people of Canada. When government policy devolves into a tool for cronyism, we’re no longer in a democracy but a soft tyranny—one where citizens are squeezed dry, paying more in taxes than they do for food, shelter, and clothing, only to see their money squandered and stolen while they’re expected to bow and say thanks.
Is Trudeau Trying to Destroy Canada Before Losing the Election?
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appears to be on a “kamikaze” mission to damage Canada’s economy while he’s in office to position the Liberals for re-election in 2030.
Premier Danielle Smith claims Trudeau is pushing through policies with extreme environmental targets, knowing they could lead to severe economic consequences, particularly for oil-rich Alberta.
Smith specifically criticizes the federal emissions cap on the oil and gas sector, arguing that it’s a de facto production cap disguised as environmental regulation. She says it would undermine Alberta's economy and contravenes provincial jurisdiction over natural resources. Smith pointed to projections showing potential losses of $28 billion for Alberta and $97 billion nationally, as estimated by S&P Global.
The Liberals, however, assert that the emissions cap will benefit both the economy and the environment, stating that it will “decarbonize Canada’s oil and gas sector.” Federal ministers emphasized that the policy is a cap on emissions, not production, and aims for a 35% reduction by 2030, with a pathway to net zero by 2050.
Smith remains resolute in her opposition, even pledging legal action to stop the policy, likening Trudeau’s approach to a “bad renter burning the furniture on the way out.” She further criticized Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault, calling him a hypocrite for accepting China’s 2060 net-zero goal while imposing stricter timelines on Canada.
Police Officer Participated in Violent Protest Against Hindus in Brampton
In a disturbing episode that highlights Canada’s multiculturalism failures, an off-duty Peel Regional Police Sergeant, Harinder Sohi, was allegedly seen waving a Khalistan flag at a protest outside Brampton’s Hindu Sabha temple right before it turned violent. The Khalistan movement is responsible for deadly attacks, violent insurgencies, and commercial plane hijackings in India. But this officer, sworn to uphold the law, chose to support a terrorist movement.
The Hindu worshippers called the police for protection from the attacking Khalistanis, only to be attacked by an on-duty Peel regional police officer.
This is the hard reality of Trudeau’s multiculturalism—Canadian institutions fractured by divisive loyalties, where extremism is not only tolerated but often celebrated. When an off-duty police officer is carrying out political violence, only for a responding police officer to continue the violence, it signals a collapse of law and order, an abandonment of impartiality, and a betrayal of every Canadian who once believed their institutions were neutral and just.
Tribal warfare from the other side of the planet is tearing apart our institutions, while a leader who can't recall how many times he did blackface lectures Canadians about their privilege—believing himself to be a hero of humanity.
Ikea to Pay 6 Million Euros to East German Prisoners Forced to Build Their Furniture
Ikea has agreed to pay 6 million euros (US$6.5 million) to a German fund compensating victims of forced labour under East Germany’s communist regime. During the Cold War, political prisoners were forced to manufacture Ikea’s furniture, a fact revealed in media reports over a decade ago and confirmed by an independent investigation. Ikea’s payment is the first corporate contribution to the fund, a step applauded by advocacy groups who hope it will set an example for other companies that also benefitted from forced labour in East Germany.

Russia Plotted to Start Fires on Planes Bound for Canada and the US
A recent report from The Wall Street Journal reveals a Russian plot to place incendiary devices on flights bound for Canada and the U.S., which experts say underscores Canada’s need to bolster support for Ukraine and increase defence spending. Maria Popova, a Russia expert at McGill University, argues that Canada must recognize Russia as an adversary actively targeting Western democracies. The devices, embedded in electric massagers, ignited in European logistics hubs, prompting an international investigation and arrests in Poland. Popova warns of further “hybrid attacks” against NATO allies and stresses that only a robust response, including Arctic defence measures, will deter Russia’s aggression. More
Tiny Thought: Honestly, we should all be working toward brokering peace instead of deepening the divide and edging closer to World War Three. That said, I do recognize and appreciate the importance of standing up to Russia if these reports are accurate.

Trucking, Construction Expect ‘Labour Crisis’ With New Temporary Worker Rules
New rules for high-wage temporary foreign workers, set to take effect on Friday, are raising concerns for companies reliant on this labour force, which increases the income cap for high-wage temporary foreign workers to 20% above provincial median wages. This is likely to shift 34,000 jobs to the low-wage stream, barring applications from high-unemployment regions. Groupe Nadeau’s HR director, Dominique Lamothe, warns this change could mean losing half their mechanics. Meanwhile, the Canadian Construction Association highlights ongoing labour shortages in skilled trades, noting the government’s assumption that the labour crisis is waning. The policy aims to prioritize hiring Canadians and permanent residents over temporary workers, but critics like Senator Ratna Omidvar worry that limiting foreign workers could slow housing construction and harm Canada’s labour market. More
Tiny Thought: Raising wages exclusively for foreign workers is a flawed response to a deeper problem created by the Liberals, and it signals to Canadians that their work is valued less than that of foreign hires. This outcome should be no surprise.

Fossil of Huge “Terror Bird” Found in Colombia
Terror birds, or Phorusrhacidae, were large, flightless, predatory birds that lived in South America during the Cenozoic and briefly in North America and Africa. These birds, weighing up to 70 kg and standing 0.9–2.7 meters tall, had powerful legs and large beaks suited for hunting. Nearly 20 species across five subfamilies are known, with the seriemas as their closest living relatives.
A fossilized leg bone, the northernmost evidence of a terror bird in South America, was found in Colombia’s Tatacoa Desert, dating back 12 million years. Marks on the bone suggest it was attacked by *Purussaurus*, a massive ancient caiman. The terror birds shared their habitat with diverse creatures, including primates and giant sloths, in a unique ecosystem that existed before the Americas connected. More

‘Imane Khelif Has XY (Male) Chromosomes,’ Reduxx Claims
French journalist Djaffar Ait Aoudia claims to have obtained a medical report revealing that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who won gold in women’s boxing at the Paris Olympics, has internal testicles and an XY chromosome, indicating male biology. The report, by endocrinologists in France and Algeria, concluded that Khelif has 5-alpha reductase deficiency, a disorder affecting male sexual development. Despite being disqualified in 2023 for failing chromosomal tests, Khelif was allowed to compete. ICONS co-founder Marshi Smith criticized the IOC and Algerian Olympic Committee for compromising women’s safety and fairness, urging action against Khelif’s gold medal. More.

It makes absolutely zero strategic sense for Russia to send incendiary devices to Western nations via cargo and passenger planes. This reads far more like a MOCKINGBIRD PSYOP to justify the unrelenting Western/NATO attempt to subjugate Russia and its massive natural resources via the west’s deeply corrupt and failing proxy, Ukraine.
Not buying it.
