From the Most Corrupt, Inept, Opaque and Ludicrous Government Ever Re-Elected

Years from now, when the snowflakes who haven't been picked off by the great god evolution or become nameless numbers on a list that was afterwards mislaid, they will ask how a country rich in resources was picked clean and why people go to bed with neither food nor heat.

Here's your answer:

The Privy Council Office in a scramble for pandemic relief programs confidentially polled Canadians on whether to send free money to everyone in the country, all 37 million of them. Authorities later dropped the idea: “Yes, there are limits.”

 

Like, "we've run out of money" limits.

Economists in a Bloomberg survey expect Statistics Canada to report Friday the country lost 30,000 jobs in December. They also predict the unemployment rate ticked up 0.2 percentage points to 8.7 per cent.

Economic Development Minister Mélanie Joly yesterday said she played no role in the awarding of more than $42,000 in federal funds to her boyfriend’s company. Joly in a statement through her press secretary did not explain if she received any dividends or share of profits from the firm: “She has recused herself.”

 

Let's try this another way: nothing she says can be believed.

Public Safety Minister Bill Blair yesterday confirmed hundreds of federal prisoners are to be given priority access to Covid-19 vaccines. “For others, they’ll simply wait their turn as every other Canadian must wait their turn,” said Blair.

All schools in southern Ontario will remain closed for in-person learning until Jan. 25.

The province’s chief medical officer of health says the move is being made to ensure students and staff in schools remain safe as rates of COVID-19 increase.

 

Yes, about that (from the comments section):

When the dark shadow of tyranny descends over people, the last thing anyone cares about is a lackey who mortgaged his house in a Chinese bank has to say:

Dozens of democracy activists in Hong Kong were arrested Wednesday, as China moves to further erode the independent status of the city.

“it’s much more than just a crackdown on democracy. It’s actually a crackdown on how we perceive Hong Kong,” said Cherie Wong, executive director of the Alliance Canada Hong Kong. She said if China wasn’t challenged soon, Hong Kong would just be another city in the country without any of the freedoms people there enjoy.

Canada’s foreign minister, François-Philippe Champagne, said the news was troubling and not in the spirit of the treaty that promised Hong Kong autonomy when it became part of China.

“It is very concerning and to me it is yet another bad example of the further erosion of the one country, two systems.”

 

No one cares about you, lackey.
