Foreign Aid: The World’s Most Lucrative Racket—Funded by Taxpayers

Foreign aid isn’t charity—it’s a tool for global elites to launder money, entrap nations in debt, and seize control of resources.

A prime example of this corruption is Brookfield Asset Management, where Carney held a senior leadership role while advising Trudeau. Brookfield profits from Canada’s foreign aid and climate policies in two key ways. First, it is financially invested in foreign oil markets, such as Nigeria—a nation that Canada imported $3 billion in oil from in 2024, despite Nigeria’s abysmal environmental standards. Second, Brookfield is one of the largest investors in Canada’s renewable energy sector, which has been propped up by taxpayer-funded green initiatives, all while Trudeau kneecaps domestic oil and gas production.

This is market manipulation on an unprecedented scale. Carney’s firm benefits from both the destruction of Canada’s domestic energy industry and the government’s reliance on foreign oil markets where Brookfield has financial stakes. Canadian taxpayers are being forced to bankroll their own economic decline, while Carney and other financial institutions profit from both ends of the scam. This isn’t just corruption—it’s a deliberate, systematic looting of the nation’s wealth.

Berta Dad nailed it. Copied from FB.
Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.
This ...

Listening to Ganum today on the meeting that Premier Smith is having with Lukasek I am wondering why not just have his referendum on the vote in October? If enough say no to his question isn't it the same as a referendum that the other side wants? I for one want this to wake up the East and don't care how it happens. Another caller said she needs to call an provincial election in October and take the rest of questions off the ballot - this could be risky but I am leaning toward it as terrified that the NDP will get in again and right now Nemshi is their handicap IMHO.
