The Stupid Party
I was going to write that there is something wrong with the way Conservatives choose their candidates these days. There is. We shouldn’t expect people to be political science grads, but when you’re schmoozing at a party chat-fest, and you find yourself explaining why free speech matters…
But, it’s worse than that. Having checked old Facebook and Instagram posts, the party seems to think the job is done.
It isn’t. Nobody in the party’s Albert Street office seems to have thought it necessary to put a box on the form indicating the candidate’s conservative credentials had been examined and found satisfactory. No wonder these duds reveal themselves as traitors when their selfish ambitions aren’t realized.

So Canadians rewarded Carney with a majority government so that he can try to backfill a hole previously created by his own party? Note that this is merely a discussion forum as opposed to the implementation of any actual business plans. The mind boggles.
A recent report from RBC says that last year was Canada’s first to attract more than $100 billion in foreign direct investment since 2015.
More than $1 trillion in foreign investment exited the Canadian economy between 2015 and 2024, what the report calls the “largest capital exodus in Canadian history.”

The Canadian Investment Drought
Shocked, I tell you! Shocked! But I’m sure a Liberal majority will make it all better.
Small-business exit rates hit 5.6 per cent in the second quarter of 2025, while the entry rate fell to 4.8 per cent in the fourth quarter. The ratio between business starts and closures is among the worst since the COVID-19 pandemic, CFIB said in a report.
Carney Shoving It In the Face of All Canadians
Democracy!
Did Viktor Orbán Just Play the EU?
In a display of political chess so brilliant it borders on the comical, Viktor Orbán sniffed out long ago that the European Union, George Soros, Obama, and the whole globalist club were gunning for him. With no worthwhile left-wing opposition left in Hungary (none of them cracked the laughable 5% electoral threshold), the Hungarian prime minister decided to solve the problem his own way: he took his top ally and right-hand man, Péter Magyar, and sent him out front as a deluxe “opponent.”
The plan was as simple as it was genius: Magyar, who until 2024 was a key piece of the Orbán government, dramatically jumped ship, played the dissident, eagerly accepted funds from the very Eurocrats who despise Orbán, and positioned himself as the great hope for “change.” The European left and their patrons fell into the trap like flies into honey. “At last!” they shouted in Brussels, as they cracked open the checkbook. No one understood a thing, of course, because hardly anyone speaks Hungarian and the headlines in Western media were too flattering to question.

They All Knew
Open Questions: Do you think that all Democrats are compromised with blackmail against them? Or are all American politicians compromised? Do you think some/most/all Canadian politicians are similarly compromised?

Going Bust
For over a decade, Canadian real estate markets and their lenders have acted like the housing price ratchet could only go one way: up. Now they’re finding out that the price ratchet can go the other way too.
The result was a sudden stampede of buyers who triggered an unprecedented run-up that put the average sale price of a traditional, ranch-style, Brantford bungalow close to $900,000 at the market peak in 2022 compared to a mere $300,000 or so in 2016.
Flash forward, and the average home in Brantford in February sold for $625,135, according to the Canadian Real Estate Association, a 30 per cent drop from 2022 that has saddled homeowners there with an unexpected housing crisis that Canadians…are all too familiar with today.

No Country for Young Men
Alexander Brown has written a critically important editorial about Canada’s devolution:
The solution, of course, should be an obvious one: get our house in order; rebuild an immigration standard; send home those on expired and expiring ‘temporary’ status in areas we do not need; borrow from your betters when it comes to layered, nuanced healthcare delivery; reinforce laws, and civilisation itself.
Instead, Pichette went further, doubling down on decline, and arguing for triple the amount of mass immigration, as if millions of potential fast-food workers entering through the TFWP, IMP, or foreign-student stream can replace our problems of top-tier brain drain, and an anemic economy that runs on far too many zombified, unproductive businesses allowed to limp along through subsidisation.
