Wow.
@davidbexte's speech to Parliament has been the most viewed
political moment in Canada since the King's own speech. Across
dozens of platforms, nothing has even come close to this. The legacy
media hasn't mentioned it though. (We don't need them.)
Ontario's measles outbreak. Ontario
has now surpassed 2,000 cases, primarily among children who are
unvaccinated. To put that in perspective, between 2013-2023 Ontario
saw a total of 101 cases.
Ontario still lacks a modern immunization registry. Urgent action is
needed from Premier Doug Ford, Minister of Health Sylvia Jones, and
all Members of Provincial Parliament.

Should (and Could) Canada Join the EU?
Canada in the EU? It’s not as far-fetched as it sounds. From trade
lifelines to legal minefields, here’s what joining Brussels might
mean for Ottawa in a shifting global landscape.
Just to give you some idea of
Canadian's views on the USA I include this video... I might add that
while I agree that Canada needs to build a strong infrastructure to
sell our products to other countries I am not in favour of turning
against America. It's obvious that President Trump is not being
sensible in turning against Canada. If he'd just added 10% to
tariffs then countries could have worked with that but it's the back
and forth of his tariffs that make it almost impossible to plan for
the future. I am of the opinion that this is the start of the
decline of America.
Like drones have made an enormous
difference to defence in that Ukraine has shown how having big
powerful ships, and fighter aircraft no longer means you can win
wars. Like America did lose the wars in Vietnam and
Afghanistan and Ukraine has proved how a non nuclear country can
cause enormous damage to a nuclear country in Russia.
And then looking at the expansion of
the BRICS nations where they are now threatening the dominance of
the American dollar.

Jun 12, 2025 In a stunning

What began as quiet negotiations has exploded into a bold move
that’s catching Washington off guard. In today’s video, we break
down how Ontario — Canada’s industrial powerhouse — is forging

Why is Canada falling behind in
agriculture and food production?
Canada urgently needs strategies that
create incentives to encourage capital to flow into investing in
agriculture and food.
Evan Fraser and Rene Van Acker are
professors at the University of Guelph. Lenore Newman is a professor
at University of Fraser Valley.
This fall at Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show in Woodstock, Ont., visitors
were treated to a tour de force of agriculture and food innovation.
Self-driving tractors and drone crop sprayers increase productivity
and reduce pesticide and fertilizer use, shrinking the environmental
impact of farming while boosting profitability. Advanced genomics
create healthier, more resilient crops and livestock. Data
management systems bring the power of big data and artificial
intelligence onto our farms and our ranches.
Yet despite all this innovation, we face an uncomfortable truth. Few
of the technologies on display were developed in Canada and in many
ways, agriculture in this country is lagging.
Consider the Netherlands. Its land mass would fit comfortably in
Eastern Ontario, yet it vastly outcompetes Canada in its
contribution to the global food system. In 2023, the value of its
agricultural exports was about twice that of ours – this in a
country that has been reducing its total agricultural emissions over
the past 30 years. They have achieved this by investing in
technological innovation and bringing government, the corporate
sector and researchers together in a model they call the “triple
helix.”
The Netherlands’ success stands in stark contrast to Canada’s
lagging performance. If there’s any sector of the economy where we
should be a global leader, it should be agriculture. We have the
fertile land, the fresh water and a community of sophisticated
producers. Canadian food products are amongst the safest and most
sustainable in the world and we have a network of public agrifood
research facilities and smart farms. Most regions in the world can
only look with envy at what we have.
The reason we are failing to realize our potential is both
predictable and pedestrian. We have a regulatory system that is hard
to navigate, there is a lack of capital available to agriculture and
food entrepreneurs and we face chronic labour shortages that
throttle innovation. This is especially galling given that we are
great as a nation at creating intellectual property and starting
companies. But to survive, our agriculture and food entrepreneurs
often flee to the United States, where their companies find the
training, mentorship and capital they need to go to scale.
All this means that although our research and training capacity is
substantial and our international reputation is enviable, we fail to
realize the benefits of these assets and we languish.
The good news is that if the barriers are pedestrian, so too are the
solutions. First, although we have an excellent network of over 160
business incubators and accelerators across Canada, only a handful
focus on agriculture and food. We need more capacity. We urgently
need strategies that create incentives to encourage capital to flow
into this space; the recent announcement that agricultural lender
Farm Credit Canada is creating a venture wing is a good start.
Crucially, our universities and colleges need the opportunity do
more. We need to redouble our efforts to encourage young innovators
to apply their ingenuity to sustainable food production and food
security. And Canada’s research councils need to create funding
opportunities so that established researchers working in disciplines
such as robotics, genomics and artificial intelligence are given
opportunities to apply these tools to making Canada’s food system
more efficient, healthy and sustainable.
Launching a national sustainable, innovative ecosystem that
positions our country for global leadership in agrifood innovation
is not an impossible dream. It will take effort and investment, but
we’re not exactly proposing to build a food system on Mars or
perfect cold fusion in a bottle. If we want to realize our country’s
potential as an agrifood superpower, it will take focused effort,
but the goal is entirely achievable.
In a world riddled with political upheaval and climate chaos, many
countries are looking to Canada to be a leader in the sustainable
agrifood revolution. Furthermore, all macro trends, from volatile
energy prices to population growth, suggest that there is a strong
business base to finding solutions for producing more healthy and
sustainable food while helping the planet. The only real question is
whether Canadians, and Canadian leadership, will be the ones to make
the investment that allows us to achieve this goal.

My Telus house security system was
going haywire with lots of messages being emailed to me. I
phoned the support number that the keypad offered me and got the
computer which I simply couldn't get to go to a support person.
So when I got another automated phone call I called the number they
provided and at last managed to talk to someone who was very
helpful. She arranged for a tech person to visit me the next
day.
When Ahmad called the next afternoon I
found out he was of Lybian descent which made me create a page on my
ElectricCanadian site for Lybians in Canada.
Anyway... he was very good and all the
issues have been fixed and in addition he also put their mobile app
onto my smart phone and he also kindly fixed my computer monitor.
