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.

Trump's obsession with Canada is real
'It's all about security and hemispheric defence.'
I'm in.
Recently, Brian Lilley of the Toronto Sun interviewed Steve Bannon about Donald Trump’s repeated comments about Canada becoming the fifty-first state. Bannon has long been associated with Trump, having served as his White House Chief Strategist in 2017, and continues to be a leading spokesman and organizer for the MAGA movement.
Lilley was probably hoping to get assurances that Trump’s comments about Canada were not serious and that he was just trolling Justin Trudeau. But that was not the message he received.
Instead, Bannon’s responses focused largely on the geostrategic and geoeconomic benefits of “hemispheric defense.” In short, Trump’s comments about buying Greenland and taking back the Panama Canal are part of a grand strategy of defending the Western Hemisphere. Canada is a key element of that policy.
According to Bannon, President Trump has decided on a plan that ...
