In Trudeau"s 2017 visit with the Pope in the Vatican, he gave the Pope a huge volume: "For his part, Trudeau gifted Francis a copy of "Relations de Jesuits du Canada," a rare 6-volume edition that documents the Jesuits' reports on Canadian territory, and a Jesuit vocabulary in a special edition." Here's what Pope Francis and Justin Trudeau talked about | Catholic News Agency Considering the Jesuit's and Rome's secret diabolical history, this reveals a lot about Trudeau's trust in the Jesuits and Rome. We know the Pope is a Socialist, a Globalist and a Jesuit himself. Trudeau is a strong globalist as well. That in itself should be a concern, in addition to all the deeper concerns.

There should be a detailed explanation given to the public by Trudeau as to what constitutes privileged or private information in relation to the election interference. The explanation should be full and there should be some definition of what kind of information the public can be told. The public must be tired of being treated like school children. The patronizing comments by bureaucrats saying on the committee we can't tell this and that is tiring. It does not instill confidence in the government. I'm sure people believe the government is simply trying to hide things to protect their incompetence. The public has a right to know everything possible.

Over ten thousand Canadians died during delays and cancellations through the 2020-21 COVID-19 pandemic, a new SecondStreet.org report reveals. These were from causes other than Covid. These people died because of lack of treatment for cancer, heart conditions, etc., not from Covid.

CTV news announced today the RCMP is investigating the leak from CSIS of Chinese spy interference. Canadians apparently have no right to know anything if it comes from unauthorized channels in CSIS. Why is CSIS not authorizing the release of such information? Guess they are not permitted to give any information out unless authorized by Trudeau. That is the only explanation that makes sense.

A book worth reading is "Why Naziism is Socialism and Why Socialism is Totalitarianism" By George Reisman. Available on Amazon Kindle. The Nazis controlled companies and set prices just as Socialism would do.

Could be. But the hospitals have been overwhelmed since Covid started. Maybe that brought the failing health care system to the media and everyone's attention. We never heard much about the problem before Covid. But now it is the centre of attention. Millions of people don't have their own doctor, emergency departments in several small places have been closing down at times. Long waiting lists for various urgent procedures, thousands of people dying on waiting lists. It is very tragic. I don't really think the politicians in charge of the system get it. The problem with a public system in a place like Canada, the way if fails to work properly can always be blamed on some other politician or some other level of government. Politicians are not the right people to be running the health care system but they do and have to provide enough money, which they don't.

I have been saying that liberals have been cozying up with China for ages, actually ever since Pierre Trudeau became PM and established diplomatic relations with China under Chairman Mao over 50 years ago. We don't know a fraction of what is going on between some liberals and China or what has been going on. We do know the influence of China in every level of Canadian society has been growing. Nothing surprises me anymore. Now Trudeau is fighting hard to avoid shedding light on what has been going on with the elections recently. You can bet government and bureaucrats will continue refusing to answer questions claiming privacy rights or national security.

" Over ten thousand Canadians died during delays and cancellations through the 2020-21 COVID-19 pandemic, a new SecondStreet.org report reveals. According to government data, an unsettling 11,581 patients died while waiting to receive potentially life-saving healthcare including surgeries, diagnostic visits and specialist appointments. “Waiting lists are at all-time highs due to governments postponing surgeries and diagnostic scans after the pandemic emerged,” said SecondStreet.org president Colin Craig. “But Canadians should note that waiting list deaths have been on the rise for years. Behind these statistics are patients spending their final years in pain, with cloudy vision and other problems. Worse, some are dying simply because the government took too long to provide surgery.” 11,581 died after being put on healthcare waiting lists in 2020-2021 | True North (tnc.news) You can find different figures and lower number of deaths depending on which website you look at. The health care system is in a crisis according to many people. Reportedly at least five million people in Canada do not have a family doctor. I know once when I was visiting relative near Winnipeg about 15 years ago, I went to a walk-in clinic for some minor issue, it was very crowded with a small waiting area. I caught Norovirus there and was as sick as a dog that night. Politicians like to promise everything like a good public health care system, but these are the same politicians that spend billions of dollars on every other conceivable government social service anyone can think of. That means they end up not putting enough money into the public health care system. It has been getting worse for years. I don't see anything on the news that indicates they are going to really fix it. Aside from the lack of money being put into the system, I suspect the public health care system is being run poorly. I know many people don't have their own doctor and have to rely on a walk-in clinic or going to the emergency room for every issue. That is a poor way to run the system. The walk-in clinic is not a good place. People have to sometimes wait outside for an hour or more in a long lineup to be seen by one doctor. Lately they let them sit inside in a long hallway on chairs. The hospital ER is poorly run. Not enough doctors and patients sometimes have to wait six hours, maybe longer, to be seen. Maybe only one doctor on duty.

That should be enough reason to fire her. If not, the provincial laws need to be changed. Grooming children for LGBTQ ideology should be illegal.

If we reject the reality of God and make ourselves the judge of everything, we are only deceiving ourselves. We need to remember our place in the universe. We are as specks of dust and the Almighty God that created us is who we should be bowing to and respecting with every ounce of our being. If we think we know more than God, we are fools. According to Calvin's interpretation just in the titles of the sections, since Adam fell, we lost our free will and became totally corrupt in our thinking. That sadly might contribute to why humans think they are their own God and ignore the true God of the Bible. I say the Bible to distinguish the true God from the God of Islam or the Gods of Hinduism or Buddhism. There can be only one true God. We need to recognize, we are not a god and our future is in God's hands.

The INDEX of the book I mentioned "Institutes of the Christian Religion" by John Calvin, Book Second says: I. Through the Fall and revolt of Adam the whole Human Race made accursed and degenerate. Of Original Sin. II. Man now deprived of Freedom of Will, and miserably enslaved. III. Everything proceeding from the corrupt Nature of Man damnable. Those three chapters will tell you exactly why the world is the way it is from someone who really understood the Holy Scriptures on the subject.

Actually CTV is technically corporately-owned, but there is no difference between the CBC and CTV. CTV being dominant would not make much difference. What we need is less government control with the CRTC and more private TV stations. Don't forget government-controlled stations only give you the government narrative or politically correct narrative. One must ask why the CTV seems to only broadcast a politically correct narrative if it is private. Doesn't seem to be very much like an private independent station. There possibly are a growing number of stations just using the internet to broadcast because the internet is already there and it is free to use or very inexpensive. Even CBC is now using the internet solely for several programs. One I think is called CBC GEM. Many churches are broadcasting their weekly Sunday services on the internet. It is free and anyone anywhere can watch it. The truth is it would make no difference if we only had CTV and CBC was gone, except it would save the taxpayers billions of dollars. CTV wouldn't be any different than it is now if the CBC were gone. Just have twice as many viewers and possibly make more money and have some better programs. Right now, the number of viewers and revenue is divided up between two stations which are very similar. Did you notice some political hosts who worked for the CBC later went to work on CTV? I can think of two in last few years, Evan Solomon and Vassy Kapelos. This is a good argument for abolishing CBC.

Yes, just listened to it. Good one.

Something that makes one proud of the British Empire is Captain James Cook. If you want to watch an excellent documentary, watch the History of Captain James Cook on youtube. His statues were unfairly targeted by Black Lives Matter around the world. He was an eminent navigator, explorer, servant of the crown, cartographer, and captain. He discovered feeding the crew fruit and vegetables stopped them from getting scurvy, a huge discovery in the 1700s. He charted the west coast of B.C. in the 1700s.

Not really. There are only two Canadian news channels with steady news updates (with a strong liberal slant), CBC & CTV and they are both the same. Makes me wonder why we are paying billions to have the CBC when CTV is almost exactly the same.

Yes, I like the song Hallelujah by Cohen. Don't know about the words. I give you credit for thinking of the Jerusalem song. I have heard it before but not much. Just listened to several versions now and found one sung by an individual male that is very good.

The Ontario legal profession is in a battle between the takeover by the woke agenda and rejecting it sometime this year. This is very serious and could extend into every facet of life of the legal world. It would be a further serious extension of the authoritarian woke agenda into Canadian society. "The Law Society of Ontario’s battle over its woke statement of principles is heading toward round two, as the election of benchers is a contest between two slates, one upholding the 2019 repeal of the rabidly politically correct statement of principles (SOP), and the other pledged to reinstate it. Readers may recall that the SOP requires every lawyer and paralegal in Ontario to promise to advance equality, diversity and inclusion, and not only within the legal profession. The SOP requires law licensees to “create and to abide by a statement of principles acknowledging their obligation to promote equality, diversity and inclusion generally, and in their behaviour towards colleagues, employees, clients and the public.” Under this formula, all law licensees in the province must pledge to promote this elusive quality amongst the public and in practically all of their individual activities. It should have been obvious to everyone from the outset that this was an insane and unenforceable burden to inflict upon the profession, and that, if imposed, the lawyers would become a pestilential thought police committed to terrorizing society." https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/other/conrad-black-election-will-decide-if-ontario-law-society-devolves-into-woke-tyranny/ar-AA18dGYF?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=efc69a81b7114c9a8f3b377f6897bbec&ei=38

You know we don't get to vote on U.S. presidents, but Trump had a few good things about him that caused half of America to vote for him. He opposed leftism, Socialism, and globalism. Those are big things. He opposed environmental radicalism and climate change alarmism that Trudeau and Biden pedal constantly. Those things alone would cause millions to vote for Trump.

Thankfully by God's mercy and grace, I won't be going to that place. Praise God! Hallelujah! " But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: "(John 1:12, KJV). "For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." Hebrews 10:14 KJV "13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7: 13, 14 KJV This song expresses the joy I have.

"In examining Scripture, two facts become clear. First, God is a Spirit and does not possess human characteristics or limitations. Second, all the evidence contained in Scripture agrees that God revealed Himself to mankind in a male form. To begin, God’s true nature needs to be understood. God is a Person, obviously, because God exhibits all the characteristics of personhood: God has a mind, a will, an intellect, and emotions. God communicates and He has relationships, and God’s personal actions are evidenced throughout Scripture. As John 4:24 states, “God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” Since God is a spiritual being, He does not possess physical human characteristics. However, sometimes figurative language used in Scripture assigns human characteristics to God in order to make it possible for man to understand God. This assignment of human characteristics to describe God is called “anthropomorphism.” Anthropomorphism is simply a means for God (a spiritual being) to communicate truth about His nature to humanity, physical beings. Since humanity is physical, we are limited in our understanding of those things beyond the physical realm; therefore, anthropomorphism in Scripture helps us to understand who God is. Some of the difficulty comes in examining the fact that humanity is created in God’s image. Genesis 1:26-27 says, “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” Both man and woman are created in the image of God, in that they are greater than all the other creations as they, like God, have a mind, will, intellect, emotions, and moral capacity. Animals do not possess a moral capacity and do not possess an immaterial component like humanity does. The image of God is the spiritual component that humanity alone possesses. God created humanity to have a relationship with Him. Humanity is the only creation designed for that purpose. That said, man and woman are only patterned after the image of God—they are not tiny “copies” of God. The fact that there are men and women does not require God to have Morand female features. Remember, being made in the image of God has nothing to do with physical characteristics." Is God male or female? | GotQuestions.org Google is such a simple thing to use to find the answers. More foolishness. Obviously just trying to be obnoxious.

I have a couple questions for you? 1. Do you believe the Ottawa occupation was heavily influenced and financed by some Americans or would you say it was a very small part of the number of protesters? 2. Do you believe the Americans that were involved were just a fringe group who were protesting against mandates and Trudeau's leftism or authoritarianism? 3. Do you believe American influence is more dangerous than influence from China? 4. Would you rate American's influence as the same kind of threat as from China's influence? 5. Do you think Russian influence in Canada is anywhere near the same magnitude as China's influence?
