Canada Has Detailed Retaliation Plan to Harm Republican States the Most in Response to Trump’s Tariffs

Why is Canada targeting Republican-led states?

President Trump officially imposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China on Saturday after they had ignored his threats.

Trump slapped the tariffs on the three countries under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

  • 25% tariffs on all Mexico imports
  • 25% tariffs on nearly all Canadian imports — 10% on Canadian energy resources
  • 10% tariffs on all China imports

“Today, I have implemented a 25% Tariff on Imports from Mexico and Canada (10% on Canadian Energy), and a 10% additional Tariff on China. This was done through the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) because of the major threat of illegal aliens and deadly drugs killing our Citizens, including fentanyl. We need to protect Americans, and it is my duty as President to ensure the safety of all. I made a promise on my Campaign to stop the flood of illegal aliens and drugs from pouring across our Borders, and Americans overwhelmingly voted in favor of it,” President Trump said on Truth Social on Saturday.

Since 2018, Over 75,000 Canadians Died Waiting for Health Care

If you think Canada has such a great nationalized health care system, you need to reconsider.

Death by Delay

SecondStreet reports 15,474 Canadians Died Waiting for Health Care in 2023-24

Today, SecondStreet.org released government data showing an additional 15,474 patients in Canada died in 2023-24 before receiving various surgeries or diagnostic scans. However, that number is incomplete, as several governments provide either partial data, or simply do not track the problem.

SecondStreet.org collected the data by filing Freedom of Information (FOI) requests across Canada. When the data collected is extrapolated across jurisdictions which did not provide data, the number actually nearly doubles, to around 28,077. These figures cover everything from cancer treatment and heart operations to cataract surgery and MRI scans.

Trump Sets Saturday Deadline for 25% Tariffs on Mexico and Canada to Force Action on Illegal Migration and Fentanyl Crisis

President Donald Trump has set a Saturday deadline to impose a 25% tariff on all imports from Mexico and Canada.

The administration asserts that these tariffs will remain until both neighboring countries take substantial measures to curb the flow of unauthorized migrants and illicit drugs into the United States.

This announcement follows a recent agreement with Colombia, where the threat of similar tariffs led the Marxist president to fold like a cheap suit and begin accepting deported migrants.

In a statement from the Oval Office Thursday, President Trump emphasized the urgency of the situation.

“Mexico and Canada have never been good to us on trade. They’ve treated us very unfairly on trade,” Trump said.

“We’ll be announcing the tariffs on Canada and Mexico for a number of reasons. Number one is the people that have poured into our country so horribly and so much.

“Number two are the drugs, fentanyl and everything else that have come into the country. Number three are the massive subsidies that we’re giving to Canada and to Mexico in the form of deficits.

“I’ll be putting the tariff of 25% on Canada and separately 25% on Mexico. We will really have to do that because we have very big deficits with those countries. Those tariffs may or may not rise with time,” Trump said.

When asked about whether he would impose tariffs on Canadian and Mexican oil, Trump said, “We may or may not. We’re going to make that determination probably tonight.”

CBSA refusing to honour pardon for Jan. 6 fugitive detained in B.C.

The Canada Border Services Agency is refusing to honour U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive order to pardon those involved in the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot in Washington D.C.

An Indiana man detained in a Surrey, B.C. immigration detention centre may soon be free to return following U.S. President Trump’s executive order to pardon all those involved in storming the Capitol building in Washington in 2021. 

Antony Vo, 32, fled to Canada to make an asylum claim to avoid sentencing after being convicted of four non-violent misdemeanours that occurred during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot.

“It has been a long fight for my client but I am happy he has been pardoned in the USA so he will likely drop his claim and return to the USA,” Vo’s U.S. lawyer Damilo Ausni told True North. 

The CBSA attempted to intervene in the matter by sending a letter to the Immigration Refugee Board last week prior to Vo’s hearing to state that he was “not on the list of individuals pardoned by the US President.”

Along with specific individuals pardoned by name in the executive order, Trump also granted “a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.”

Vo’s legal representation in Canada, Robert Tibbo, told the National Post that his client’s counsel in the U.S. all indicate that “yes, 100%, he’s been pardoned.”

Alberta releases pandemic report — and the results are shocking!

A task force brought to fruition by the Alberta government wants the use of COVID-19 vaccines to be halted, citing insufficient data on their risks. 

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, in the fall of 2022, ordered her then-health minister to review pandemic data and provide recommendations.

The findings of the $2 million task force affirmed Smith’s skepticism towards her predecessor’s handling of the pandemic, as well as safety concerns surrounding vaccines. It propped up ivermectin and and hydroxychloroquine as an alternative form of treatment.

The task force recommended the barring of COVID-19 vaccines without full disclosure of their potential risks, as well as ending their use in healthy children and teenagers, reported the Globe and Mail.

It also suggests further research into their effectiveness, establishing support for vaccine-injured individuals, and providing an opt-out mechanism from federal public health policy.

Soon after being elected leader of the United Conservative Party, Smith referred to unvaccinated Canadians as the “most discriminated against group” she has seen in her lifetime, prompting public pushback.

Carney campaign pushes back on Maxwell photos, says ‘they are not friends’

The nascent leadership campaign of Mark Carney is blaming the Pierre Poilievre Conservatives for circulating photos of the global banker with Ghislaine Maxwell, the jailed ex-girlfriend of the late Jeffrey Epstein.

The photos began circulating on social media Monday. It appears the original account to share it is a small anonymous account with few followers and only a few posts over the past few weeks.  

The original post pointed to a photo of Carney and his wife Diana Fox Carney standing with Maxwell, the British socialite-turned-sex trafficker and Epstein associate who is serving 20 years in jail.  

“This is another example of how Pierre Poilievre and (adviser) Jenni Byrne have always played politics and it shows again how terrified they are to fight Mark Carney,” a source close to Carney told the Toronto Sun when asked about the photos and any association between the Carneys and Maxwell.  

“As a child, the woman you reference went to the same high school as Mr. Carney’s wife’s sister. While they have bumped into each other in public settings (including the 11-year-old photos you’ve sent), they are not friends.”

Billionaire Robert Miller accused of being secret pedophile who preyed on girls as young as 11

A billionaire dubbed ‘Canada‘s Jeffrey Epstein‘ will face a class action suit after he was accused of sexually assaulting girls as young as 11 as part of an organized ‘prostitution system.’ 

Robert Miller, 81, allegedly paid minors for sex between 1994 and 2006 and recruited them with the assistance of employees from his company, Future Electronics.

This week, Quebec Superior Court Judge Catherine Piché ruled that a class action launched by three of Miller’s alleged victims could proceed.

‘These extremely serious acts allegedly took place over several years, when they were between the ages of 11 and 17,’ she wrote in her decision, according to CBA.

‘The court should not, at this stage, consider the merits of the dispute and it should take the facts as proven, unless they appear improbable or manifestly inaccurate.’

The class action has been launched by three women who allege they were victims of Miller, and also targets Future Electronics.

If the class action is successful, Miller could be ordered to hand over up to $150million in damages. 

Lawyer for the plaintiffs Jeff Orenstein told the court he’d been approached by 51 alleged victims.

Newly Released Documents Reveal Private Meeting Between Canadian MP and UFO Whistleblower

Newly released documents obtained under Canada’s Access to Information Act have revealed details of a meeting between Larry Maguire, a Canadian Member of Parliament, and David Grusch, a senior intelligence officer with the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) that many in the media have called “The UFO Whistleblower“. The meeting, which occurred on May 31, 2022, focused on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) and sheds light on discussions about sensitive topics spanning international borders. The documents, uncovered by open-source researcher Steve Te after a lengthy appeal process, provide partial insight into the exchange but are heavily redacted, leaving significant questions unanswered.

The meeting between Maguire and Grusch took place over a year before Grusch’s public testimony before the U.S. Congress in July 2023 and prior to his April 2023 Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review (DOPSR) approval for publicly discussing information related to UAPs. This timing raises important questions about whether Grusch, who discussed highly sensitive topics with a foreign government official, had the necessary authorization or assurances that what he disclosed was unclassified. Despite the unclassified designation of the meeting, the extensive redactions in the documents suggest that the topics discussed were considered sensitive enough to warrant shielding from public view, adding to the controversy surrounding Grusch’s role and the international dimensions of UAP discourse.

The meeting notes document Maguire asking Grusch 14 detailed questions about UAP-related issues. Grusch’s responses touched on topics such as U.S.-Canadian collaboration on UAP investigations, NORAD’s involvement, and theories about UAP activity near nuclear facilities. Notably, Grusch mentioned the existence of compelling UAP footage held by the U.S. government, which he suggested could help acclimate the public to the reality of the phenomena.

Whistleblowers Say Canadian Doctors Pushed Euthanasia On Unwilling Disabled Patients

Whistleblowers Heather Hancock and Roger Foley tell The Federalist that Canadian doctors pressured them to accept euthanasia amid long-term disabilities.

Canada legalized “medical assistance in dying” (MAID) in 2016, legally permitting doctors to help kill patients. Officials updated the law in 2021, enabling the medical killing of patients without a terminal diagnosis. Dying With Dignity Canada has even pushed to expand the legislation to include “mature minors.” Nazi Germany’s euthanasia program also included children.

“I’m so frightened for my people who are vulnerable,” says Angelina Ireland, executive director of the Canadian Delta Hospice Society, a patient advocacy nonprofit organization.

According to a recent report, “euthanasia regulators have tracked 428 cases of possible criminal violations” in Ontario between 2018 and 2023, and none were reported to police. One doctor in Vancouver repeatedly accused of violating MAID rules has helped kill hundreds of patients, as The Federalist reported. According to CTV News, one family recently named the doctor and her clinic in a lawsuit for alleged “unlawful administration of MAID,” claiming this resulted in a psychiatric patient’s “wrongful death.”

The MAID process may appear morbidly peaceful. In “clinician-administered” MAID, “a physician or nurse practitioner directly administers a substance that causes death.”

As laid out in the MAID protocol for the Northwestern territories, this often involves the injection of multiple chemicals, including midazolam, a sedative; propofol, which induces a coma; and rocuronium or cisatracurium, which paralyze muscles. Ireland called it the “stuff of nightmares,” noting this cocktail creates the appearance of calm while a patient experiences respiratory arrest.

The alternative method, often called “self-administered medical assistance in dying,” involves “a physician or nurse practitioner provid[ing] or prescrib[ing] a drug that the eligible person takes themselves, in order to bring about their own death.”

Ireland provided a signed affidavit to The Federalist from Pat Gray, an elderly patient Ireland said is now deceased. A doctor allegedly encouraged Gray to accept MAID, but she refused, according to the document.

“One day, she decided to offer me MAiD. I quickly said no and then showed her my bookmark that said, ‘With God all things are possible,’” the patient wrote. “[I]f God wants to use my life longer for even one more miracle, it will be worth it.”

Euthanasia and the Failure of Canada’s Health Care System: A Human Tragedy

The rise of euthanasia in Canada, under the guise of progress, exposes an alarming truth: the abandonment of the fundamental values ​​that should guide any society.

Instead of investing in a health care system that cares for the most vulnerable, the country has opted for a quick and tragic solution: facilitating assisted dying as a response to the deficiencies of its health care system.

The case of Samia Saikali, a 67-year-old grandmother who chose euthanasia after a 10-week wait to be seen by an oncologist, calls into question the moral and ethical direction that Canada has decided to take.

Samia Saikali began experiencing health problems after a trip in December 2022. Finally, in March 2023, she was diagnosed with inoperable gastric cancer. According to her doctor, with chemotherapy she could have extended her life by at least a year, enough time to enjoy one last summer with her family.

However, the Canadian health system, renowned for its endless waiting times, failed miserably. Ten weeks after her diagnosis, Saikali finally got a consultation with an oncologist, but it was too late. Her health had deteriorated so much that treatment was no longer a viable option. Desperate and with no real alternatives, she opted for euthanasia.

This tragic outcome is not an isolated case. It represents the failure of a health system that prioritizes bureaucracy and inefficiency over human life.

According to the Fraser Institute, in 2022 Canadians waited an average of 25.6 weeks to access a specialist, the longest wait time ever recorded in the country.
