Sir John A. Macdonald invented Canada.
He was real and he invented Canada.
This Canada:
A Chinese tech giant filed more patents in Canada last year than any other company, evidence of what some observers say is a failure by Canada to secure the critical intellectual property rights needed to build next-generation technologies.
**
A human rights lawyer says documents that the Canadian government argues contain confidential matters of national security were shoved into his door frame, with no signature or password needed.

The late Pierre Elliott Trudeau, who served as Canada’s prime minister for more than 15 years and died more than two decades ago, remains more popular nationally than the current office holder, his son Justin, a new survey suggests.
And while Justin Trudeau was able to narrowly nudge past his father in just one jurisdiction — Quebec — the elder Trudeau was able to surpass his son in approval even in Alberta, where the Trudeau name has enjoyed little popularity regardless of the generation.

One in six Canadians do not trust government news, says in-house research by the Privy Council Office. Skeptics numbered one in three in Alberta. The survey preceded a Department of Heritage directive to enforce federal standards on news reporting: “To what extent do you trust Government of Canada information?”
(Sidebar: wow. Canada is filled with really stupid people.)
As much as people would like to blot him out of existence (because they are emotionally retarded authoritarians), he still existed, still invented Canada and is still a better statesman, even though a dead one, than a frat-boy's dictator-loving father at whose feet the residential schools lie.
Yep.
Make no mistake: trash are doing the dirty, hateful thuggish work of the corrupt and thieving Marxists for whom China is a role model. They can slink away as much as they like when they realise that even Canadians might have a slight issue with burning down churches but you got the ball rolling and you were caught rolling it.
History will remember:
St. Columba Anglican Church in Tofino and St. Paul’s Anglican Church in New Hazelton in northwestern B.C. reported fires, with the latter completely destroyed.

Archbishop Gagnon is the president of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, and the archbishop of Winnipeg. He said that in his role he is getting “bombarded a lot,” and that in dealing with the media, he’s noticing “a lot of blame, a lot of accusations, a lot of exaggerations, a lot of false ideas.”
“And so I say in my heart,” he said. “You know something? There’s a persecution happening here. There’s a persecution happening here.”

Failed Liberal brainiac Gerry Butts thinks burning indigenous churches "may be understandable." Wonder when he'll find it politically expedient to shrug off the burning of mosques and synagogues. https://t.co/HNDo4bBMUj

Also:
As for the cemeteries, they are there in the report.
These were not hidden cemeteries as some have wrongfully thought or implied, they were part of the whole horrid system. The schools had cemeteries because the government refused to pay to transport the bodies of students who died back to their parents.
“The practice throughout the system’s history was to keep burial costs low, and to oppose sending the bodies of students who died at schools back to their home communities,” the report states.
These weren’t unmarked graves at the beginning either. Just as the government wouldn’t pay for sending bodies home, they wouldn’t pay for headstones and so the graves were given a simple wooden marker. The report speaks of these markers decaying over the years or in the case of a school in Regina, the cemetery fence and markers were destroyed by fire and not replaced.
The report notes that even a century ago the government of the day was warned that it needed to maintain these cemeteries but did not.
There is only "transparency":
The Conservative chair of the Senate communications committee managing Bill C-10 said he’s been flooded with protest emails on the measure. Senator Michael MacDonald (N.S.) said the bill sends Canada “down a rabbit hole on internet regulation.”
(Sidebar: but Goebbels said that everyone wanted this bill. Could he be completely wrong? Surely not!)

Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault has issued a guide for reporters on how combat “disinformation and misinformation.” Guilbeault’s department will detail “concrete action they will take to implement the guiding principles” within a year, he said: “We have to act now.”
More:
The guide is ridiculously and insultingly prescriptive as it “aims to guide actions and measures that foster greater exposure to diverse cultural content, information and news online.” And who determines what constitutes that vague and contentious concept of “diverse cultural content?” Steven Guilbeault? The Canadian government?
And should you see “diverse cultural content” as a phrase inviting whatever meaning the government wishes to put on it, what about this twaddle: “A diverse, pluralistic, healthy and sustainable media ecosystem … should be fostered.”
The phrase itself is a warning. Whenever you see “ecosystem” in a government document that isn’t about trees, ants or David Attenborough chatting up a penguin, you know you’re being taken for a ride.

Cabinet should be more willing to detail national security worries with everyday Canadians to “avoid rampant speculation,” says a Department of Public Safety report. The research coincided with cabinet’s refusal to disclose reasons why Chinese scientists were fired at a federal lab: “Most participants believe the government is not fully transparent about national security issues.”

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not committing to having a plan for implementing an independent reporting system for military sexual misconduct by the end of the summer.
(Sidebar: just look up how many creeps there are in the Liberal Party and you will see the reason for the delay.)
It's just money:
Cabinet will not make it a legal requirement that airlines pay cash refunds to passengers ticketed on Covid-cancelled flights. It had promised in a January 15 Ministerial Mandate letter to “ensure Canadians get refunds for air travel cancelled due to the pandemic.”
**
A spokeswoman for the premier’s office says Kenney wants to discuss pipelines and the reopening of international borders, which have been closed due to COVID-19.
(Sidebar: cut the b@$#@rd off, Jason.)
**
Transportation Minister Omar Alghabra announced the government will seek bids for the construction of a high-frequency rail corridor between Quebec City and Toronto this fall with a potential price tag as high as $12 billion.
**
A new report by BMO Capital Markets shows Canadian households’ net worth rose an astonishing $2 trillion during the pandemic.

A $49 million-a year grant program for seniors is popular with applicants but does little to help the poor, says a Department of Social Development report. Seniors used subsidies for bocce courts, Chinese cooking classes and big-screen TVs: “Other age cohorts that are struggling with young families should not have to pay for these kinds of goofy programs.”
