The Speaker's double-standards

European conservatives demand to close the border

Harrison Faulkner was at the Make Europe Great Again conference in Bucharest, Romania over the weekend to speak with conservative politicians about the issues facing the continent in the lead up to the EU elections in June. Unsurprisingly, the issue that received the most attention at the conference was mass immigration, the Islamization of Europe and the EU migration pact. Harrison Faulkner spoke with a wide variety of conference attendees and European politicians at the conference, including US conservative activist Jack Posobiec and producer of Sound of Freedom Eduardo Verástegui.

Make Europe Great Again Conference

Romania is facing a number of pressing issues – government corruption, immigration, Ukraine and the rising inflation crisis. Similar to Canada, it’s clear a lot is on the line in Romania in the next election. Voters in Romania will head to the polls later this year and the right-wing AUR party is expected to make significant gains. Labelled as “far-right” by the media and its opponents, the AUR party has resonated with voters by focusing on the high cost of living, expressing their frustrations over the war in Ukraine and targeting leftist climate policies. Can Canada’s Conservatives learn anything from this election?

‘This is not justice’ — member of Coutts 3 responds

Today on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel speaks with Alex Van Herk, one of the Coutts Three found guilty last week of mischief over $5,000 for his role in the Coutts border blockade. Van Herk, who faces up to 10 years in prison, says sentencing is expected in September.

The trial revealed that Van Herk’s name rarely showed up in RCMP’s notes, and Van Herk says he is hoping for a lesser sentence than his friends. He also says there’s more Alberta Premier Danielle Smith can do to help the Coutts Three and he’s unimpressed with her response to his guilty verdict.

Diversity is our strength!?

Two viral videos have sparked a major reaction in Canada once again regarding mass immigration and values clashing. The first is a brazen liquor store robbery at a LCBO by what appears to be Indian immigrants. A bystander decides to confront the thieves with a few well placed hooks as everyone else simply looks on. The other video is of an international student explaining to his social media followers how they can “save hundreds of bucks” by abusing a local food bank at his university. The reaction was so negative that the student had deleted his social media accounts.

It appears that we are witnessing a major values clash in our cities and Canadian are fed up.

Warning to protesters who act as a liaison with police

During the trial a number of RCMP officers conceded that the Coutts Three were helpful in their interactions with the law. Yet the Crown (Canada's prosecuting attorneys) depicted the Coutts Three as the protest leaders because they volunteered to liaise with the RCMP. In future, who will choose to volunteer at any future peaceful, non-violent, protest to act as a liaison with the policing authorities? This verdict handed down on April 16, 2024, in Lethbridge, is a strong message that those who assist and liaison with police will be targeted.

What Freeland’s budget means for Canadians

Earlier this week, Chrystia Freeland unveiled her fourth federal budget, laying out billions in spending to address various issues including housing supply, grocery prices, and online hate. Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada president Catherine Swift joined True North’s Andrew Lawton to discuss the budget and how it will impact Canadians.

Smith responds to guilty verdict for Coutts 3

Today on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel interviews Alberta Premier Danielle Smith on when the provincial fuel tax will be lowered and whether the province is recommending Covid-19 vaccines for babies beginning at six months. Rachel also asks the Premier about protecting women in jails and shelters after Smith said at the CSFN conference last week that biological men will still be allowed in these spaces. Finally, Rachel asks the Premier for her response to the guilty verdicts for the Coutts three and for an update on a promise to ban electronic tabulators in the province.

Alberta refuses to be bribed by Trudeau

Today on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel speaks with Alberta Seniors, Community and Social Services Minister Jason Nixon about the Provincial Priorities Act, which was tabled by the government last week to ensure provincial sign off on federal-municipal deals. Nixon says the province is concerned about federal interference in municipalities, which are the province’s jurisdiction, and this legislation will end that practice. He also says Alberta “won’t be bribed” to sign onto federal deals with their own money.

Nixon also says the province won’t agree to new housing codes to comply with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s green agenda, saying that would increase the cost of construction and housing. Rachel also asks the minister how funding the federal government has promised to municipalities is causing blanket rezoning in Calgary.

Canada’s Birth Rate is Collapsing

One of the most concerning trends in Canada is our country’s collapsing birth rate. Our fertility rate is well below replacement level and there seems to be no effort from the government to increase the levels. Successive federal governments have instead sought to artificially increase Canada’s population through waves of high levels of immigration into the country. The result? One concerning sub-trend from this reliance on immigration is that the young male population in Canada is now rapidly exceeding the young female population. This could have disastrous consequences for Canada in the future.

With marriage rates declining and the average age of marriage increasing, family building is taking a significant hit in this country. Further, recent studies indicate that Canadian women are having fewer children than they would want, largely because of financial constraints.
