Fake, woke & authoritarian: Why does Canada continue to take the insultingly insincere Justin Trudeau seriously?

I have always found Trudeau Jnr. nauseous but jouirnalist Eva Bartlett really goes to town on him below

Canada's pointless prime minister is a vacuous, self-aggrandising, borderline despot incapable of even keeping up the pretence he cares a jot about the people unfortunate enough to be governed by the privileged charlatan.

Just weeks post federal elections, the muppet PM of Canada, Justin Trudeau, has given up all pretense of being a serious politician and instead returned to his norm of idiocy, offensive gaffs, scandals, and increasing the authoritarianism Canadians have endured the past 18+ months (but which Trudeau and other leaders have flouted).

On September 30, the day of Canada's newly-established National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, instead of himself abiding by the words of his (clearly-scripted and hollow) statement, Trudeau skipped off West to hit the waves and walk on the beach with his wife and kids.

The statement included Trudeau inviting Canadians, “to reflect on the painful and lasting impacts of residential schools in Canada, and to honour survivors, their families, and their communities,” and, “to remember the many children who never returned home.”

This he did by ignoring requests of Indigenous communities to visit, instead opting for family fun time in Tofino, a holiday town on Vancouver Island.

This is hardly surprising, given he is merely the face of the government of Canada, the same government which has paid lip service to caring about Indigenous peoples, but continues to allow many communities to boil contaminated water rather than solving the dangerous health issue.

Trudeau's choice to go surfing on the very day of the first year of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, was, in my opinion, him revealing how little he cares for the issues he feigns concern over.

A week later, he donned his pretend-sincere face and uttered the empty words, “Travelling on the 30th was a mistake and I regret it.”

Nah. He doesn't regret it, he regrets getting caught. Or as a survivor of the genocidal ‘residential school’ system said, “this just shows us survivors that he doesn't actually want to meet with us. He's just hoping that we will just disappear into the sunset.”

Last July I wrote of the sudden media attention regarding the horrific issue of the Canada-wide ‘residential schools’, where starvation, torture, and sexual, physical and mental abuse were rife.

In a follow up article, I cited an interview I conducted with Roland Chrisjohn, a PhD-educated clinical psychologist and head of the Native Studies department at St. Thomas University in Fredericton, New Brunswick, who spoke of Canada's long history of covering up the crimes against Indigenous children imprisoned in the ‘schools’.

Trudeau's latest failure to show any semblance of genuine remorse over these crimes was noted in the backlash on social media, including in response to his virtue-signalling tweet after the fact.

More recently, Trudeau took to Twitter tweeting about “lighting candles to honour Indigenous women, girls,” and adding his own version of inclusivity, 2SLGBTQQIA, that left even the wokest confused, and many mocking his idiocy.

The 2SL of that Trudeauism apparently referred to ‘Two-spirit’, or “a person who identifies as having both a masculine and a feminine spirit and is used by some Indigenous North Americans to describe their sexual identity.”

Although Team Trudeau thought they were ahead of the woke game, he instead, once again, looked like an idiot in a suit pretending to be a leader. One whose Twitter settings should include parental guidance, for his own good.

Trudeau's authoritarianism

While the PM might garner a tad of sympathy from charitably-minded people who perhaps, mistakenly, think the guy has his heart in the right place but keeps mucking up with his idiotic gaffes, many Canadians are rightly pissed off by his, and Canada's, authoritarian streak over the past two years.

Ontario has had one of the longest and most brutal lockdowns in the world – though the tyranny in Australia has superseded that of Ontario.

Earlier this year, Canada decided to re-invent science and declare that natural immunity to Covid-19 isn't acceptable, only the fast-tracked Big Pharma jabs, meaning that many Canadians, myself-included, cannot return to Canada.

In the leadup to the rushed election, Trudeau said unvaccinated citizens should be banned from planes, trains & buses, and called on the populace to shame and condemn the anti-vaxxers as a “danger.”

This week, Trudeau announced Canadians aged 12 and up will be forced to be jabbed in order to travel.

And Trudeau's government will tighten the noose further, implementing prison-state rules about travel by the end of November: only fully vaccinated Canadians can travel.

This is unsurprising to those who have followed Canada's not so subtle slide towards tyranny. Nor is it surprising after over a year of Covid-19-related psychological operations against the Canadian people, with the intent of “shaping and exploiting” information, discouraging civil disobedience, and boosting confidence in the government's narratives on matters pandemic.

Although I believe that whoever the muppet leader of Canada is, the policies would largely be the same, the Trudeau brand is truly repugnant.

Canadians are doomed with years more fake, woke and authoritarian non-leadership, with no imminent solution in sight other than mass civil disobedience. But sadly, the combination of idiotic and distracting identity politics and the media fear mongering will ensure that this does not happen.

And Jews Will Still Vote Democrat

Leftism blinds the mind to reality

Dennis Prager

There is almost nothing Democrats can do to damage America or Israel that would change most American Jews’ political leanings.

The latest example took place just last week. A college student speaking to Vice President Kamala Harris, a Democrat, condemned America for supporting Israel, and charged Israel with committing “ethnic genocide” against Palestinians.

Harris’ said, “Your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth cannot be suppressed, and it must be heard.”

It was indeed the student’s truth, which means it was a lie. “Your truth” always means “a lie.” When a person says something that is true, people don’t say, “that is your truth.” They say, “that’s true.”

And indeed, what the girl said to Harris was a complete lie. Not a partial lie, a complete lie.

As a rule—except on the left with regard to Israel—groups that are victims of genocide decrease in number.

Yet, the Palestinians have had one of the highest population growth rates in the world. There were 2,783,084 Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza in 1991, according to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics. In 2021, there were 5,227,193. This number does not include another 2 million Palestinians who are Israeli citizens.

How many other national or ethnic groups have doubled in size over the last 30 years?

Yet, despite this revealing incident, it is hard to imagine that one American Jew will in any way rethink his or her commitment to Harris and President Joe Biden.

One reason is that few Jewish Democrats even know it occurred. I Googled “New York Times Kamala Harris George Mason University” and the following results came up (in this order): New York Post, Politico, Times of Israel, and Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Next came a 2020 article from The New York Times titled “Kamala Harris Makes History as First Woman and Woman of Color as Vice President.”

I could find nothing about the incident in the news sections of The Washington Post or Los Angeles Times either.

Some of the most powerful forces in the Democratic Party who are the reason for the $3.5 trillion spending bill are indistinguishable in their hatred for Israel from Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime. Does this disturb American Jewish Democrats?

Not nearly as much as former President Donald Trump disturbed them. Most American Jews loathed Trump even though he was the most pro-Israel president since Harry Truman; his daughter and grandchildren are religious Jews; and he engineered the Abraham Accords, a peace agreement between the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain and Israel, which was followed by normalization of relations between Sudan and Israel and between Morocco and Israel.

Most American Jews believe the Democratic Party is good and moral and that the Republican Party is immoral and perhaps even evil. This view is entirely emotional, which is why it is difficult to imagine it changing.

Most American Jews identify Republicans with the right. They assume “the right” means “fascist” or even “Nazi.” Most American Jews also identify Republicans with the rich and powerful and the Democratic Party with the poor and downtrodden, even though the rich and powerful are overwhelmingly Democrats.

Most American Jews identify the Democratic Party with secularism and the Republican Party with religion, specifically religious Christians and Orthodox Jews. They are as committed to secularism as Christians are to Christ.

Most American Jews have signed on to just about every secular substitute for Judeo-Christian religions including feminism, environmentalism, “anti-racism,” humanism, and socialism.

Jews, I have often noted, may well be the most religious people in the world, but for the great majority of them, Judaism is not their religion. And the Democratic Party is the party of all these secular religions.

This is a great tragedy not just for America, but especially for American Jews.

America has always been the best country where Jews have ever lived outside of Israel. That is why a Jew wrote “God Bless America” (and did so at a time when antisemitism was much more prevalent and accepted in American society than it is today).

That is why the most influential religious Jew of the 20th century, Chabad leader Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, described America as a medina shel chesed, a “country of kindness.” Coming from Europe, he did not compare America to Utopia but to all the other countries where Jews lived.

Yet, something happened to American Jews after World War II. They veered more to the left and able to support America-hating movements including the Black Panther Party. Leonard Bernstein and other prominent Jews in music and Broadway threw an infamous fundraiser for the Black Panther Party.

This happened because Jews became less and less committed to Judaism, substituted The New York Times for the Torah and went to college in greater proportions than any other ethnic or religious group in America. Colleges corrupt most students’ values. Jews are no exception.

That helps explain why a Democratic vice president could praise a student who just told her that Israel commits ethnic genocide—and have it mean nothing to most American Jews.

Expert Testifies That Shootings by Kyle Rittenhouse Were Justified

Kyle Rittenhouse shot three rioters in Kenosha, Wisc., last year. Today, an expert testified in a pre-trial hearing, echoing what most of us have long suspected: All three shootings were justified.

Rittenhouse, armed with one of those scary, semi-automatic rifles, shot three men who were attacking him, as rioters and arsonists sacked Kenosha over the police shooting of sexual assault suspect Jacob Blake. Blake, who is black, resisted arrest and was retrieving a knife from his car when Kenosha police shot him seven times. Blake survived but is now in a wheelchair.

FACT-O-RAMA! Kamala Harris told Jacob Blake she was proud of him. She didn’t explain whether she was proud of him for sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend or for resisting arrest.

In the aftermath of the shootings, lefty news outlets, hiding the fact that Blake was a sexual assault suspect, tried to portray Rittenhouse as a bloodthirsty vigilante. He spent some time in a Kenosha jail for the shootings after he turned himself in to his hometown police in Antioch, Illinois.

Self-defense expert John Black testified, after watching videotapes of Rittenhouse being chased by an armed mob, that Rittenhouse, then 17 years old, was justified in all three shootings. “A citizen in that position, given those indicators, would it be reasonable for them to believe they were about to be assaulted? I would argue yes,” Black said.

The Kenosha riots were immortalized by CNN’s now-infamous “Fiery but mostly peaceful” coverage, where protestors rioters were also seen pelting police with projectiles.

Rittenhouse has taken heat, not just for shooting rioters who were swarming him, one of whom struck him with a skateboard, but because he is from out of state. Some believe he had no reason for being in Kenosha, though he insists he was there to help defend a friend’s place of business.

Also, there is some debate as to whether or not Rittenhouse, 17 at the time of the shootings, was allowed to have a semi-automatic rifle. His lawyers argue that, due to hunting laws, he was allowed to legally possess one.

Stunned holidaymakers say they have been branded racists by staff after complaining about Afghan child refugees 'running riot' at Scarborough's historic Grand Hotel

Coach-loads of migrant families fleeing the Taliban have been arriving at the iconic venue which was evacuated earlier this week in a bomb scare believed to be linked to their arrival.

Hotel guests say they have every sympathy with the 200 refugees staying there until they find permanent homes - but their children have disrupted their stay and caused havoc.

According to the complaints, unruly Afghan children are running in and out other people's rooms, screaming and shouting and setting off fire extinguishers,

The unsupervised youngsters were also said to be riding scooters all over the hotel, pressing all the buttons on lifts, causing damage, and 'intimidating' guests.

Visitors who complained to hotel workers about the disruption or requested an early checkout say they were stunned to be accused of racism by the staff.

Two women from Billingham who requested a cancellation of their £338 stay from booking agent National Holidays say they were warned they would not get a penny back.

One said: 'Our concern is about safety and leaving things in our room, because of what we read about theft and kids running wild. 'By no means are we racist - I've worked with refugees, and it is not their fault.

'I totally agree they should have got out the country, but my concern is the company didn't inform us what the Grand Hotel was doing.'

TripAdvisor for the Grand Hotel, a Grade II listed building which was once the largest hotel in Europe, has been deluged with complaints about alleged conditions at the hotel and the behaviour of the children.

One woman wrote that after queuing for an hour to check in she and her partner went to their room and were shocked by what they found.

She said: 'On the way I realised there were a lot of people just stood about while hundreds (or seemed like) of children raced around screaming and shouting.

'After plenty of "excuse me" etc we found the room. After squeezing past folk in we went. 'P**s up the walls and no quilt on the bed and these said children running in and out of the room!

'We decided we didn't want to stay there and headed back downstairs (same carry on as going up!).

'I overheard people talking angrily about the kids and people just stood about, they were refugees and more buses were just parking up.

'I didn't have a problem with this. I just felt we should have been made aware that the hotel would be this "hectic" then we could decide if the noise would be a problem for us.

'I spoke to the man on the desk and asked for a refund and explained why. He then started shouting at me calling me a racist! 'I am no racist - I booked the break when the school holidays had ended so it would be quieter!

'He flatly refused me a refund so we left. We went on to pay £150 to get a room for 1 night then left and went home a day early as we were both worn out.

'As I was at the desk getting insulted at least three others were demanding a refund for the same reasons.'

Another disgusted guest wrote: 'The place is full of uncontrolled refugee children, who are absolutely out of control and nobody is disciplining them.'

'The guest then said "I am paying to be here, so I have the right to complain" to which the employee said - "No, you don't".'
