“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

Justin Trudeau has never drawn one single line in the sand that he wouldn’t see crossed; if he had he would have just kept backing up to draw another line further back


Things just keep going from bad to worse .... and all our Canadian Prime Minister can do is wring his hands and ask the United Stated to have a school yard fight with the Chinese and take a round out of them for us.

In an earlier post today, with regards to China a being a reception sponsor at the Union of BC Municipalities, I noted the comments of Port Coquitlam Mayor Brad West who commented: 

To state it plainly: The Government of China is engaged in a number of actions that are hostile to our country's interests and the interests of every Canadian, and are completely at odds with our values, the rule of law and the very principles that we were all elected to uphold ... 

West then went on to list a number of well-know issues Canada is having with China, and which have been labelled as phony and manufactured. This includes the arrest of two Canadians being held in detention with little to no access to lawyers ... Pork-gate ... Canola-gate ...

His letter to the Executive of the UBCM also reminded them of ... a brutal crackdown on peaceful, legitimate protests in Hong Kong ... the internment of in excess of one million ethnic Uyghurs and other Muslims in China in camps who are subject to gross human rights violations, physical and psychological abuse and death ... all of which have been confirmed and condemned by Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, respected scholars, writers and governments from all over the world...

Well now as I mentioned, things have gone from bad to worse! According to a story in CTV News, just after 3pm this afternoon:

The Chinese Embassy says it has suspended all Canadian meat exports in a dramatic escalation of its diplomatic dispute with Canada over the December arrest of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver.


The latest Chinese move comes as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to depart Wednesday for the G20 leaders' summit, where he is expected to rely on U.S. President Donald Trump to raise the plight of two detained Canadians during a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
I know I will hear all kinds of reasons why we would be crazy to do this; however, it IS time we stood up for ourselves.  Countries like COMMUNIST China have under-priced our own manufacturing seeing factory after factory shut down --- and thousands of Canadian jobs have been lost.

On top of that ... much of what they send us has toxic poisons in it unsafe for humans ... they've shipped children's toys with toxic lead paint ... sent us food for the pets we love with all kinds of crap that is unsafe ... the list goes on and one ... never mind the human rights offenses that happen to their own citizens day after day.

Justin Trudeau has never drawn a single line in the sand that he won’t see crossed -- that’s probably a good thing as all he would have done is keep backing up to draw another line further back in the sand. 

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! 

Trudeau should get on the phone right now, and I don’t care if it is only 7am in Beijing, and tell Xi Jinping that he can get on the phone and tell the captain of every freighter headed out way, to turn around and head back to their home ports.

It won’t happen overnight, but it’s time to really on Canadians to manufacture and produce what we need here, not exclusively, but the countries we import from had better be ready to play be and decide the playing field is going to be even, or we don’t want what thy plan to send us.



MAKE SURE JUSTIN GETS THE MESSAGE!

Call his Parliamentary Office at ... (613) 992-4211

Call his Constituency Office at ... (514) 277-6020
Flood him with emails at ...

Brad West was right when he said, “What line does the Chinese Government have to cross before the UBCM says no more? Is there a line?”

It certainly appears there is not one – at least as far as our Federal Liberal government, led by Justin Trudeau is concerned.

THAT HAS TO END ... and if nothing else we as Canadians should check to see that we are not purchasing Chinese products when we are shopping.  Leaving Chinese manufactured products on the shelves will send a message to businesses that we don’t want their crap!!

Abbotsford-Mission MLA Reann Gasper “This is a decision I have made after a great deal of careful consideration, and I believe it is the right decision for me, for our Party, and for the work ahead,” said MLA Gasper. “It has been a privilege to represent the people of Abbotsford-Mission, and I am deeply grateful to everyone who placed their trust in me.

NDP Sits on $61 Million With No Start Date for Burnaby Hospital

Phase 2 of Burnaby Hospital redevelopment  was green lit to go ahead in September 2023 The NDP spent $45 million on the Burnaby Hospital redevelopment, cancelled the second phase, and now has another $61 million listed for the project in the province’s Public Accounts, with no start date for construction. If the NDP cancelled the project, what is happening to the $61 million set aside for it? The Phase 2 project was expected to cost between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion and was intended to expand the hospital’s capacity. With Burnaby’s population growing and residents struggling to access healthcare, the government should be investing in healthcare capacity, not leaving millions of dollars tied up in limbo. “The NDP spent $45 million on this project before cancelling it, and now $61 million remains listed for it in the Public Accounts,” said MLA Misty Van Popta, Shadow Minister for Infrastructure. “If the government isn’t going to build the hospital expansion, it should explain whe...

BC Conservatives Point to Warning Signs in BC’s Economy

While Canada posted modest job gains in July, warning lights are still flashing in British Columbia. Youth unemployment remains stubbornly high, leaving too many first-time jobseekers shut out of the workforce. BC also lost 3,400 public administration jobs in July, likely as temporary Census positions ended. “BC's jobs divide remains stark. Unemployment is far higher in business-driven communities like Kelowna (9.3%) and Abbotsford-Mission (8.3%) than in Victoria (5.0%). Government should be focused on creating the conditions for private-sector investment and job growth,” said Gavin Dew, MLA for Kelowna-Mission and Shadow Minister for Economic Development. “We need an economy where young people can find work, businesses can hire, and every region has the opportunity to prosper.” This comes as BC faces five straight quarters where more businesses are closing than opening, an NDP cabinet rift over job-creating projects like Tilbury LNG, and fresh signs that even the province's to...
