With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s prorogation of Parliament, the federal government only has until the end of March before Ottawa runs out of money and has to vote on a supply bill. https://tnc.news/2025/01/13/ottawa-brakes-federal-ev-subsidies/

The Ontario government unveiled a new framework on Tuesday to enhance border security along the province’s border with the United States. Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced “Operation Deterrence” a day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau revealed he was planning to resign once a new Liberal leader was selected. The Ontario government has already requested that Ottawa address the province’s economic and security concerns by matching U.S. tariffs on China, banning Chinese software in cars, delaying the digital services tax, and finally meeting NATO’s 2% of GDP defence spending requirements. https://tnc.news/2025/01/08/ontario-deploys-officers-secure-us-border-rcmp/

OTTAWA, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is increasingly likely to announce he intends to step down, though he has not made a final decision, a source familiar with Trudeau's thinking said on Sunday.

With the New Year kicking in, the City of Ottawa reminded the plebs that new idling times for all automobiles on private or public land were now in effect: Ottawa is the Canadian capital, where average temperatures range from -9C (15F) in December, -14C (6F) in January and Febuary, to -7C (19F) in March. The new time limits on pre-heating your car will allow one minute of idle time per hour for unoccupied vehicles. That means using the remote starter to melt off the ice and warm the car up before piling into it for the morning commute is now verboten. It’ll also mean you’ll have to get out there in the -14C weather with your ice-scraper because there’s no way a minute of idle time is enough to defrost or de-ice your windshield. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-01-04/ottawa-outlaws-remote-car-starters-save-climate

‼️ The City of Ottawa has introduced an expansion to its anti-idling bylaw that can only be described as "we don't care if you freeze in winter" bylaw. This comes into effect this January and violators will face fines starting at $500, up to $100,000 for repeat offenses. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

A man convicted of killing four people in a Paris synagogue bombing has been working as a professor in Canada. Hassan Niam Diab, 70, was convicted of terrorism charges in French court in 2023. Despite the conviction, Diab has continued teaching "social justice" classes at Carleton University in Ottawa. He was sentenced to life in prison and has been awaiting extradition to France. Conservative lawmakers and concerned Jewish community members sounded the alarm about the matter, which captured the attention of American mogul Elon Musk. "A mass murderer is living free as a professor in Canada?" Musk wrote on X, sharing a post from Pierre Poilivere, the Conservative Party Leader and candidate challenging Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the upcoming October election. Poilivere questioned why Diab has yet to be extradited, saying the convicted terrorist has been "living freely in Canada" and working with young impressionable minds. https://thepostmillennial.com/man-convicted-of-killing-4-in-paris-synagogue-bombing-teaches-social-justice-at-carleton-university-in-canada

OTTAWA — With the fall economic statement to be presented just before they go back to their ridings for Christmas, some Liberal MPs are expressing concern that their government will be blowing past their self-imposed target of keeping deficits below $40 billion. “It’s not an unlimited pot,” said Liberal MP Wayne Long about the federal government’s financial means. “I think that we do need to show fiscal restraint.” https://windsorstar.com/news/liberals-concern-chrystia-freeland-40-billion-deficit/wcm/22528c4c-528c-48f4-a543-558aaa364943?__vfz=medium%3Dstandalone_content_recirculation_with_ads
