On Friday, January 13th, 2023 a group of Iranian Canadian activists stood outside in the cold at Chrystia Freeland’s constituent office in Toronto, to protest the inaction of the Liberal party on their Iran policy. In particular, their failure to follow through on their promise to list the IRGC as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) under the criminal code of Canada.
Apparently, Freeland is establishing a new corporation out of nowhere in order to manage this new massive sum of money, but no Act exists that would lay out the duties and limitations of such a corporation.

On Saturday, January 7th, Arad’s father Mehrzad Zarei organized a memorial to his son and the other victims of PS752 at Elgin Mills cemetery. The memorial also honoured Iranians who have been recently executed by the Regime and those in prison for supporting the revolution.
Morneau effectively admits to trying to actually keep spending somewhat responsible in the Liberal government but Justin Trudeau and those in his office would prevent the rolling back of unnecessary or even toxic pandemic spending in order to maintain popularity.

Canadian psychologist and author Dr. Jordan Peterson could be stripped of his license to practice clinical psychology over his sharing of political posts on social media. The College of Psychologists of Ontario which regulates the profession in his home province has disciplined Peterson over the sharing of political posts on Twitter.
Mayor Jody Gondek’s governance of Calgary has been so far disastrous, but at the very least it is proving the point even more clearly than Naheed Nenshi’s time as mayor, that fashionable left-wing public policy just doesn’t work.
Although it has been said many times before and has been wrong, right now it does genuinely feel like Canadians are becoming tired of Justin Trudeau and the Liberals governing Canada. Trudeau had his ups and downs in the polls before the 2019 and 2021 elections, but for several months now it has seemed like the Liberals are only ever down, outside of a few outlier polls.
I use the term “Reflexive Contrarianism” to describe the phenomenon of people instantly taking the opposite position to the ones presented by their political or ideological opponents.
