CANADA: IS IT ONE OF THE RICHEST GROUP, THE G7, OR IS IT PROVING ITSELF TO BE A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY?

  THE REGIME AND ITS AGA KHAN AFFAIR TO SPREAD FAKE NEWS                                                                                                                                                                         Canadian families hit hard as taxes surpass the cost of living, eroding standard of living
Financial security is on the decline in Canada as taxation and inflation skyrocket, outpacing spending on all basic necessities combined.

Earlier this month Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland asserted that "Canada is the best country in the world," failing to recognize that Canada’s living standards are declining rapidly relative to other developed nations.

Freeland’s remarks came just weeks before the recent report from the Fraser Institute that found Canadians pay nearly half of their income to taxes, more than all of their basic necessities combined.

“The average Canadian family now spends more of its income on taxes (43.0%) than it does on basic necessities such as food, shelter, and clothing combined (35.6%),” said the report. By comparison, 63 years ago in 1961, 33.5% of the average family’s income went to pay taxes and 56.5% went to basic necessities.

According to the report, there has been a steady increase in taxation since that time, with noticeable jumps in 2022 and 2023.

The report highlights that federal and provincial budget deficits, which surged during the hysterical COVID-19 response, will eventually need to be repaid through taxes. However, this deferral means that if the cost of deflected taxes were considered, the average family's tax bill would be significantly higher.

As taxes have continued to outpace every other basic expenditure since 1961, it’s clear that this is only dampening the economy, with bad policy and regulatory burdens driving out innovation and investment.

Meanwhile, the Liberals prioritize funding things like the failed billion-dollar drug and substance use strategy that has only seen an increase in overdoses and illicit drug related harms across the nation, and proxy wars in Ukraine with recent budgetary allowances showing Canada has committed over $12.4 billion in financial assistance to Ukraine, instead of reinvesting here at home to help Canadians.

With a pandemic hiring spree bureaucracy that became turbocharged during the government-sanctioned COVID-19 pandemic response, bloating three times faster than the private sector that lagged substantially behind, it’s time for Canadians to reign in reckless government spending, advocate for smaller, more efficient government, and push for policies that restore a higher quality of life.

'Summit on peace in Ukraine' as a preparatory event for war in Europe

 

 'Summit on peace in Ukraine' as a preparatory event for war in Europe

by Oleg Yasinsky: Before this recent 'Ukraine Peace Summit' that took place in Switzerland, I did not know that signatures could be removed once an agreement or declaration, etc. was signed. Now we learn that every day more countries appear that annulled their signatures after the final document of that summit was signed. The first were Iraq and Jordan, then Rwanda followed in their footsteps. Who else? Although the final declaration, initially drafted by the fine literati of NATO, in the end turned out to be much softer than we, the usual misguided people, imagined.

It is known that about 160 countries were invited to the conference, 92 delegations attended and, of these, the final declaration was supported by only 76, considering that three of them regretted having signed. The name of the event, presented to the world as 'a summit', was somewhat presumptuous and exaggerated, since a meeting of presidents is called a "summit", and many of these delegations were not represented by heads of state, much less were " about peace", because in reality it was about the war against Russia.

There was also another sensitive issue, which bothered the Swiss political elites: "…kyiv dictates Swiss foreign policy. It is not the Swiss Government, but the head of a belligerent State who gives instructions to our Federal Council on who can attend the conference. of peace organized by Switzerland and who is not," wrote Swiss journalist Roger Köppel in the magazine Die Weltwoche on June 13. "All those who had doubts around the world about Swiss neutrality and the independence of our country can now be confirmed in a very official way."

The "unilateral appropriation of Russian assets" represents "a derogation from the United Nations Charter," President William Ruto said.

Several decisions about attendance, at least in the Latin American segment, were made somewhat improvised and at the last minute. Thus, Javier Milei traveled, who was not going to attend, and Gustavo Petro, who did plan to attend, did not travel. Petro, a few hours before the start of the event and about to take off from Sweden to Switzerland, called things by their name and returned to Bogotá.

Milei, on the contrary, has come to his senses, he remembered that he is a far-right anti-communist and anti-Russian pro-American and he fulfilled his ideological duty by going to the conference. I must admit that this news left me calmer. I know that several would have missed him in an event as useless and absurd as that.

The Ukrainian tragedy became a revealing element of the political essence, where all the hypocritical pseudo-leftists at the service of the corporations and their blatantly fascist servants, like Milei, always appear in the same color. No matter how much they position themselves as irreconcilable and opposing forces. That's why another faker from the south could not be missing, Gabriel Boric. The Ukrainian massacre unites and inspires them, as the main anti-Soviet dream of many generations of 'democratic leftists' and professional cannibals who sincerely and consciously hate communism finally comes true.

In Switzerland, whose memories of 'neutrality' are now like the nostalgia of an old prostitute for the distant times of her virginity, everything was very well thought out: the duo of the best tricksters of the north and the south, Zelensky and Milei, should move even the most inert public. The Ukrainian president could play his favorite piano, with white keys made from the ribs of his compatriots, and his Argentine colleagues would sing to him to the rhythm of the tangos played at full volume by their political idols in the secret prisons of the military dictatorship, so that the screams of his victims would not be heard. And then Argentina could finally give Ukraine the C-130 Hercules military transport planes, from where its military used to throw the 'enemies of the nation' still alive, the 'disappeared', into the ocean. Zelensky would most certainly put them to good use in his house.

The democratic gentlemen present would only habitually avert their progressive gaze and words, just as they did since 2014 in Donbass, because if there is one thing they are truly professional in, it is in this, in turning a blind eye.

 And none of the representatives of this INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL SCUM, who at the expense of taxpayers came to spend time in entourages with alpine landscapes, to seek the aromas of edelweiss (the favorite flower of a certain Hitler, once elected as democratically as the Milei himself), they did not vomit from the stench of the corpses of the distant Ukrainian fields plowed by death, nor from the blood released from the veins of the sacrificed Ukrainian youth, the surface of Lake Fyrwaldstett was not turned into a tsunami to erase the still living body of Europe that beautiful festive lawn (part of 'Borrell's garden') in which its gravediggers have gathered to talk about peace.

The Orwellian name of this event, presented as a 'peace conference', explains the true objectives of its organizers much better than any Kremlin propagandist. The irresponsibility and arrogance of the political games in which all these characters have been involved in recent years have led them to a corner with no way out, where any solution seems the worst.

Ukraine, so persistently not formally welcomed into NATO, has long been a key part of the organization; It is used as their tool and for cheap media effects. I don't know how you manage to not see something so obvious.

This pseudo-summit in an Alpine valley is nothing more than another smokescreen to hide the West's impotence in the face of the crisis of its own making. Fortunately, the different sides of the same side, torn by their petty, short-term and selfish electoral, credit and media interests, are no longer able to agree on anything, not even with an obvious common objective. And that is where the great opportunity for peace now lies!

The recent pandemic has already shown all the capacity for 'unity' of the 'civilized world', with each of the rich countries pulling the blanket to its side, without understanding the non-existence of borders for viruses, capital or missiles. The same goes for war.

Like a monkey with its hand clutching a handful of peanuts in a hole in a hollow tree, unable to open its fist to remove its hand... the monkey that screams in terror at the sight of the hunters surrounding it, but by nature is unable to free themselves from their own greed and flee, thus, Europe's current neoliberal elites are unable to divert their attention from the immediate interests of power and begin to act for the interests of their own population.

The result can and must be the collapse of all European colonies. After that, there will inevitably be a fall into the past or a leap over the abyss into the future.

The Ukrainian tragedy is a prelude to a new world that is to come and that will depend on many factors and on anything else, except the recent statements at the Swiss Bürgenstock. Biden's mental and physical state became a good metaphor for what the vassals of his empire offer the world.

And regarding the concrete results of the 'Ukrainian Peace Summit', we can only congratulate the hotel, gastronomic and tourism entrepreneurs of Bürgenstock, who surely did not miss the great opportunity.
