Canada Faces 9 More Months of Anti-Liberty Rule

pgnewser January 27, 2025 0

Canadians must wait until October 20, 2025, to remove the leftist scourge currently occupying its lands in the form of the Liberal Party under far-left authoritarian extremist Justin Trudeau. As of right now, polling shows the Liberal party is 27 points behind the Conservative party, with Liberals getting 20 percent support to the Conservatives’ 47 percent.

President Trump is continuing to threaten Canada with tariffs to offset what he claims is a bad trade deal for the U.S. The Liberal government is doubling down, threatening to match Trump’s tariffs with their own tariffs, and even bans on selling energy to the U.S. Pierre Poilievre appears ready to deal with Trump, but 9 months is a long time for America to wait for a good faith negotiator.

United States President Donald Trump signed an executive order declaring a “national emergency” at the U.S.-Mexico border on Monday night as he sought to swiftly assert his authority and differentiate his administration from that of his predecessor Joe Biden.

From the Oval Office on Monday night, Trump also said that he planned to impose a 25% tariff on all Mexican and Canadian exports to the United States on Feb. 1. He previously pledged to impose the tariff on his first day in office and keep it in place “until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!”

Firefighters scrambled Sunday to make further progress against wildfires that have destroyed thousands of homes and killed 24 people in the Los Angeles area as forecasters again warned of dangerous weather with the return of strong winds this week. At least 16 people were missing, and authorities said that number was expected to rise.

The National Weather Service issued red flag warnings for severe fire conditions through Wednesday, with sustained winds of 50 mph (80 kph) and gusts in the mountains reaching 70 mph (113 kph). The most dangerous day will be Tuesday, said weather service meteorologist Rich Thompson.

“You’re going to have really strong gusty Santa Ana winds, a very dry atmosphere and still very dry brush, so we still have some very critical fire weather conditions out there,” Thompson said at a community meeting Saturday night.

Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony C. Marrone said 70 additional water trucks arrived to help firefighters fend off flames spread by renewed gusts. “We are prepared for the upcoming wind event,” Marrone said. Fire retardant dropped by aircraft Sunday will act as a barrier along hillsides, officials said.

Fierce Santa Anas have been largely blamed for turning the wildfires sparked last week into infernos that leveled entire neighborhoods around the city where there has been no significant rainfall in more than eight months.

Biden administration extends temporary status for more than 200,000 from El Salvador for 18 months – PBS NewsHour

Biden administration extends temporary status for more than 200,000 from El Salvador for 18 months – PBS NewsHour
Source Link
Excerpt:

More than 200,000 Salvadorans who have lived more than two decades in the United States can legally remain another 18 months, the Department of Homeland Security said Friday in one of the Biden administration’s final acts on immigration policy.

In explaining its determination, DHS said that the extension is due to “environmental conditions in El Salvador that prevent individuals from returning.”

The decision is the Biden administration’s latest in support of Temporary Protected Status, which he has sharply expanded to cover about 1 million people. TPS faces an uncertain future under Donald Trump, who tried to sharply curtail its use during his first term as president.

Congress created TPS in 1990 to prevent deportations to countries suffering from natural disasters or civil strive, giving people authorization to work in increments of up to 18 months at a time.

The Biden administration rolled out deportation protections to nearly a million foreign nationals living in the United States, including hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans.

More than 900,000 beneficiaries of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) will be allowed to register for an 18-month extension, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on Friday. The massive roll out — just days before President Joe Biden leaves office and President-elect Donald Trump returns to power — includes TPS extensions for roughly 600,000 Venezuelans living in the country.

Excerpt:

The chief of the presidential security service in South Korea, Park Jong-joon, resigned from his position amid a political stalemate as federal authorities seek to arrest the country’s impeached president.

Park filed his resignation to Deputy Prime Minister Choi Sang-mok on Friday before turning himself over for questioning. He previously ignored multiple demands to speak with police.

Park oversaw the presidential security personnel that rejected an arrest warrant for impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and prevented police from entering the leader’s Seoul residence last week.

Presidential security officers and law enforcement were locked in an hourslong standoff as multiple demonstrations both supporting and condemning Yoon raged in the areas surrounding his home. The federal police eventually retreated without arresting the impeached president.

It is not clear why Park turned himself over to federal authorities, but he reportedly urged the public to practice sobriety and non-belligerence in the proceedings against Yoon.

Excerpt:

The Israeli military said on Friday that Hamza Ziyadne, an Arab citizen of Israel held hostage in Gaza, had been killed in the Palestinian enclave, as efforts by mediators to broker a truce between Israel and Hamas to free hostages have seen little success.

More than 15 months after the Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 2023, prompted the war in Gaza, around 98 hostages remain in Gaza. About 36 of those are presumed dead by the Israeli authorities.

The confirmation of Mr. Ziyadne’s death comes a day after family and friends buried his father, Youssef Ziyadne, 53, who was also taken hostage. The Israeli military said their bodies been found together in a tunnel under the southern Gaza city of Rafah alongside their dead captors. It was not clear when they were found or how the Ziyadnes died.

As cataclysmic wildfires rage across Los Angeles, President-elect Donald Trump hasn’t been offering much sympathy. Instead, he’s claiming he could do a better job managing the crisis, spewing falsehoods and casting blame on the state’s Democratic governor.

Trump has lashed out at his longtime political foe Gov. Gavin Newsom’s forest management policies and falsely claimed the state’s fish conservation efforts are responsible for fire hydrants running dry in urban areas. Referring to the governor by a derisive nickname, Trump said he should resign.

Meanwhile, more than 180,000 people were under evacuation orders and the fires have consumed more than 45 square miles (116 square kilometers). One that destroyed the neighborhood of Pacific Palisades became the most destructive blaze in Los Angeles history.

Excerpt:

The head of Poland’s parliament said Wednesday that the country’s presidential election will be held on May 18, with a runoff on June 1 if needed.

The election will decide whether the pro-European Union Cabinet of Prime Minister Donald Tusk will gain an ally in the presidential palace at a challenging time for Poland and for Europe, with a full-scale war in neighbouring Ukraine.

The incumbent right-wing President Andrzej Duda is at odds with the government, blocking legislation and making strongly critical comments. In the latest spat, Duda chose skiing over attending a concert gala marking the launch of Poland’s rotating presidency in the EU.

Excerpt:

Ukraine has declared that it is ready to replace Hungary in the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) should Budapest prefer to join Russian-led blocs.

The statement was released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine on Wednesday. While clearly tongue-in-cheek, it also reflects the serious tension that has built up between Ukraine and Hungary, with Budapest offering support for Moscow’s narratives over the war in Ukraine and obstructing the Western bodies’ efforts to bolster Kyiv.

Kyiv’s statement, which was also posted on X, was made in response to “[t]he latest manipulative statements from the leadership of Hungary regarding Ukraine’s decision not to extend the transit agreement with the aggressor state, Russia, from 2025 onwards”, it said.
