Canada Needs a DOGE
Australia needs it just as much or even more.
When the left lost its grip on power, Trump’s DOGE shined a light on its malfeasance, sending DC Democrats scrambling desperately to get our money out of the country. Maybe something similar will happen north of the border when Justin Trudeau leaves office next month. A Canadian version of DOGE would find plenty, judging from what Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation Franco Terrazzano has to say:
“Global Affairs Canada (is doling) out $223 million to the “private sector” in South America for climate change mitigation and gender-responsive, sustainable economic development,” he wrote on X.
As we learned during Obama and were jarringly reminded by the looting spree misnamed the Inflation Reduction Act, “climate change mitigation” is bureaucratese for “graft.”
Writes Terrazzano,
“Global Affairs Canada (also) doles out $350 million in corporate welfare to the private sector in Asia to develop low carbon and climate-resilient initiatives and advance gender equality in the region.”
Also,
Other wasteful spending in Ottawa includes Global Affairs Canada spending a significant sum on a sex toy show in Germany, and funding discussions on seniors’ sex lives abroad.
The moral caliber of Canada’s current rulers is Bidenesque. Canadians would be wise to check Trudeau’s pockets before letting him leave Ottawa.
Panic as Party Ends for Corrupt Swamp Rats
The continuing DOGE revelations have reduced the Party of Government to panic. Flustered Democrats have lacked even enough composure to pretend to be opposed to waste, fraud, and abuse. Instead, they have hysterically attacked and even threatened Elon Musk for bringing the scandal to public attention.
Swamp rats look guilty enough in front of cameras. Imagine what is going on behind the scenes. DC area search trends offer a clue:
Earlier this week, internet search trends for “Criminal Defense Lawyer” and “RICO Laws” went viral on X, fueling speculation that Washington’s political elites were in panic mode. The searches coincided with DOGE’s efforts to neuter USAID’s funding of NGOs that propped up a shadow government, as well as begin cutting tens of thousands of workers from various federal agencies.
