This document summarizes and critiques several promises made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during his 2015 election campaign that were subsequently broken or not fully achieved. It discusses failures related to election reform, closing tax loopholes, implementing universal pharmacare, upholding the UN Declaration on Indigenous Rights, improving government transparency, foreign policy goals, helping the middle class, slowing GDP growth, making housing more affordable, and rising cost of living. It provides sources and links to additional analyses on each topic performed by the author, an accountant and policy expert.
This document outlines numerous ethical violations and controversies involving Liberal Party of Canada politicians since they formed government in 2015. It lists issues such as Prime Minister Trudeau, Finance Minister Morneau, and other ministers being found guilty of ethics violations. Other controversies mentioned include a land deal involving two MPs, a company receiving benefits due to family connections of a minister, and comments made by various MPs that were deemed insensitive or divisive. The summary at the end states that the Liberal government has not proven to be transparent as promised and that neither a Finance Minister nor Prime Minister have previously faced this level of ethics violations.
This document discusses globalism and the views of different countries and leaders on the topic. It begins with defining globalism as promoting interdependence and cooperation among countries. It then discusses the US and President Trump's stance against China's trade practices. Several countries want fair trade and equal market access. The document also discusses Justin Trudeau being more focused on UN interests over Canadian interests, and that Canada's immigration system is facing stress. It concludes with suggestions like the UN focusing on its core mandate, the WTO enforcing fair trade, and governments listening to their citizens.

Global Housing Market Analysis and Commentary- September 2023.pptxpaul young cpa, cga
Summary:
Homebuilders are walking a fine line when it comes to new projects as high mortgage rates curb demand.
New residential construction, including single-family homes and multifamily, dropped 11.3% month over month in August to 1.283 million units on a seasonally adjusted basis, according to Census Bureau data released Tuesday. That's down 14.8% compared with a year ago and well below the 1.44 million units economists surveyed by Bloomberg projected.
But authorized residential permits — an indicator of potential future activity — rose 6.9% to 1.543 million permits in August from July. That was still down 2.7% from last August. Single-family permits, though, were up 2% from July to 949,000. Multifamily permits came in at 535,000.
The data reflects two opposing forces builders are trying to balance: the ongoing need for new construction to fill in limited inventory and elevated mortgage rates that are hurting their biggest customer right now, the first-time homebuyer.
"High mortgage rates are clearly taking a toll on builder confidence and consumer demand, as a growing number of buyers are electing to defer a home purchase until long-term rates move lower," Robert Dietz, chief economist of the National Association of Home Builders, said Monday in a press release after builder confidence dropped for the second straight month.

Blog – Manufacturing Shipments and Orders – The United States – August 2023
Summary:
New orders for manufacturing technology in the United States totaled $353.9 million in July 2023, as per the latest report by AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology. This figure marked a 12.4% decline from June 2023 but remained only 10.5% lower than July 2022. Year-to-date orders amounted to $2.83 billion, reflecting a 12.7% decrease compared to the same period the previous year.
Douglas K. Woods, President of AMT, noted that July is typically a slower month for manufacturing technology orders, so a slight drop was expected. However, he pointed out a notable trend: over the last two months, the year-to-date order gap has narrowed during historically slow periods. While job shops have seen decreased orders, other industries that benefited from reshoring or government investments have helped fill the gap.
Among specific sectors, job shops, the largest customer segment, placed their lowest total monthly orders since August 2020. In contrast, metal valve manufacturers recorded their third-highest monthly order value on record, last seen in September 2018, making up nearly 5% of the total manufacturing technology order value for July 2023. Manufacturers of motor vehicle transmissions continued to order machinery at an elevated pace. However, the aerospace industry continued to order below its early 2022 peaks, with hopes that recent projects like the federal government's $1.5 billion investment in communications satellites might reverse this trend.

Electricity Analysis - Canada and the OECD - June 2023.pptxpaul young cpa, cga
Summary:
Over three-quarters of the world’s total coal-generated electricity is consumed in just three countries. China is the top user of coal, making up 53.3% of global coal demand, followed by India at 13.6%, and the U.S. at 8.9%.
Burning coal—for electricity, as well as metallurgy and cement production—is the world’s single largest source of CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, its use in electricity generation has actually grown 91.2% since 1997, the year when the first global climate agreement was signed in Kyoto, Japan.
However, even as non-renewables enjoy their time in the sun, their days could be numbered.
In 2022, renewables, such as wind, solar, and geothermal, represented 14.4% of total electricity generation with an extraordinary annual growth rate of 14.7%, driven by big gains in solar and wind. Non-renewables, by contrast, only managed an anemic 0.4%.
The authors of the Statistical Review do not include hydroelectric in their renewable calculations, even though many others, including the International Energy Agency, consider it a “well-established renewable power technology.”
With hydroelectric moved into the renewable column, together they accounted for over 29.3% of all electricity generated in 2022, with an annual growth rate of 7.4%.

Global (Mining Oil and Gas Forestry and Agriculture) Analysis and Commentary ...paul young cpa, cga
The mining, oil, gas, agriculture, forestry, and mining continue to face environmental, social, and governance policy review including reporting of key metrics as part of ESG reporting cycle.
There is more focus on profitability and investment returns as part of the integrated planning and reporting cycle.
Summary:
The global economy faces what at least one forecaster is calling a mild trade recession as shipments from China slump and German factories downshift.
China’s export declines extended into August, though there were signs that the worst of a world trade slowdown may be over for the leading exporter.
Overseas shipments from China fell 8.8% in dollar terms from a year earlier while imports contracted 7.3%, both better than economists’ estimates and significantly less severe than July’s downturn.
Other data have suggested trade may be stabilizing after weakening for most of this year. Exports from South Korea also declined at a more moderate pace in August than the previous month.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

OTTAWA – Canada is trying to patch up frayed relations with the Japanese government
after holding out on signing a major Pacific Rim trade deal championed by Prime Minister
Shinzo Abe.
Tensions flared between the two countries after Canada effectively blocked progress on
a deal to salvage the Trans Pacific Partnership, an 11-nation trade deal anchored by
Japan after U.S. President Donald Trump quit the pact. Canada continues to push for
revisions that leave the deal, created in part as a check on China’s economic clout, in
limbo — days before Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau heads to China himself.
Trade Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said he discussed the issue with Japan’s
ambassador to Canada in a meeting in Ottawa on Tuesday. “We cleared a lot of the
issues and restated we are partners and friends in many things, and have made progress
toward trade in the Asia-Pacific region,” he said in an interview Wednesday. “And I think
this is understood now by both sides.” Japan Times – December 1, 2017
12. CHINA AND TRUDEAU
Source - http://vancouversun.com/opinion/op-ed/opinion-trudeau-learns-hard-lesson-on-
disappointing-trip-to-china
Unfortunately, many believe that the Trudeau government and pertinent Canadian trade negotiators,
simply failed to properly understand some of the attitudes and long-term goals underlying the policies
of the ruling authorities in Beijing, among them President Xi Jinping himself.
It’s thought one key factor in the failure of the talks was that Chinese authorities had no wish to
commit their government to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s much-publicized emphasis on non-trade
issues, including commitment to democracy, the rule of law and the advancement of women’s rights
and their greater participation in society.
Put succinctly, some regard the unexpected breakdown in the trade talks with China as greatly linked
to the Trudeau government’s failure to truly understand what was required to achieve an acceptable
trade deal with Beijing.
That same view also arose following the recent public criticism by former Prime Minister Stephen
Harper that Trudeau had adopted questionable and potentially harmful tactics during the current
renegotiating of the 1997 North American Free Trade Agreement between the United States, Canada
and Mexico.

The ties between the two countries are without parallel anywhere in the world. Trade between the U.S. and Canada
totalled an estimated US$673.9 billion in 2017, with a surplus of $8.4 billion for the United States. Each day, about
400,000 people cross the world’s longest international border. There is close co-operation on defence, border security
and law enforcement, and a vast overlap in culture, traditions and pastimes.
As with most intimate relationships, there have been rough spots.
Limited trade wars over lumber, pulp and paper, and other products have flared on and off for decades. In the early
1960s, there was a bitter rift because of personal enmity between President John F. Kennedy and Prime Minister
John Diefenbaker, who balked at U.S. pressure to be more aggressive in Cold War manoeuvrings.
Later, the Vietnam War caused some divisions, as Canadians—including Justin Trudeau’s father, then-Prime Minister
Pierre Elliot Trudeau—welcomed American draft evaders who crossed the border. And some Canadians, notably the
Ontario intelligentsia, tend to regard Americans as more crass and gun-happy than people north of the border.
“In general, Canadians have looked at us as a large, powerful, unruly but basically good child—a big animal that they
don’t have to worry about but does stupid things now and then,” said Stephen Blank, an American academic who has
taught at universities on both sides of the border.
The flare-up came as the recent G-7 summit in Quebec concluded. While Trump headed to his meeting with North
Korea’s leader, Trudeau told reporters that Canada would retaliate against new U.S. tariffs it viewed as unfair. Trump
was furious, pulling the U.S. out of the G-7 joint communique and calling Trudeau “dishonest” and “weak.

Canada has become the latest county to use Australia as a guide on how to deal with rampant foreign influence after a
conservative senator said such laws were “essential for Canadian political sovereignty”.
Canadian opposition senator for Ontario Linda Frum has called for Australia’s new laws, which were introduced into
parliament last week, to be urgently reviewed by her country’s parliament.
“It’s essential for Canadian political sovereignty that we examine this very, very closely,” Senator Frum said last week.
“I think we need to look at it and I think we need to look at it urgently.”
She told Canadian radio that the Sam Dastyari case was a sign Australia had let the problem of foreign influence get
out of control.

the environment? There are none! All the LPC did was keep the

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was given a guarded welcome to India as a way of showing "polite
displeasure" over his country's sympathies with Sikh nationalists, an expert has said.
Mr. Trudeau touched down at New Delhi airport over the weekend to be greeted only by a junior agricultural
minister. He is not due to meet Indian premier Narendra Modi until the sixth day of his week-long tour.
His trip to Taj Mahal was also a small-scale family affair – with most attention being paid to the PM sporting
Star Wars footwear in an apparent nod to Mr Modi's favourite film.
By contrast the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was warmly embraced by the Indian leader on the
tarmac moments after he stepped off the plane last month.

Under former prime minister Stephen Harper,
Canada achieved in four years what took India
and the U.S. 18 years. The sticking points were
Canada’s mistrust of Indian nuclear ambitions
and India’s dismay at Canada’s then bipartisan
wink-wink-nudge-nudge approach towards
terrorism on Indian soil, epitomized by the Air
India (AI182) bombing. Initiating both the perjury
trial of Inderjit Reyat to overcome double
jeopardy laws, and a public inquiry into the
entire sordid affair, the Harper government’s
actions served as a signal to the Indian
government that the ambiguity on terror was to
end. This was followed up with a robust
intelligence sharing architecture to ensure the
slow but systematic build up of institutional
trust. On the nuclear front, the Harper
government enthusiastically supported the India
exception at the Nuclear Suppliers Group in
2008, concluding its own bilateral nuclear pact
with India in 2010
Harper and India
Trudeau and India
Contrast this with Trudeau, a man with
the unique ability to unite India’s left
and right in a common dislike for him.
The left-leaning Congress Party’s
supporters detest him for being an
enabler of Khalistani terrorism. The
right-leaning BJP supporters revile
him for being a practitioner of the very
worst forms of identity politics. And
Trudeau has taken it on himself to
prove them both right. His ascent to
the top of the Liberal Party was
powered by the disenfranchisement of
Sikh moderates who allege that
Trudeau rigged internal elections to
favour the violent loony fringe. This
fringe is exactly what is represented
in his cabinet, ministers who
passively acquiesce to terror through
omission and diversion.

intentions which is they do not trust Canada when it comes to dealing with terrorist groups like

With no mainstream media in attendance to ask any questions, Khalid boasted that her “hard work has resulted into
tangible action.” She listed the following two groups as being potential recipients of the new funding:
The National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), a former branch of the U.S. based Council on American Islamic
Relations (CAIR) that was named in 2008 as an unindicted co-conspirator connected to the “largest terror-funding trial
in U.S. history. NCCM has denied links to CAIR.

Yet despite the lethal threat that its GCC partners saw in
the Brotherhood, Qatar continued to chart a pro-
Brotherhood course. Following the Egyptian coup, Qatar
granted refuge to some Brotherhood leaders who escaped
from Egypt, and Al Jazeera housed them in a five-star
Doha hotel and granted them regular airtime for promoting
their cause. Al Jazeera also aired the Brotherhood’s
ongoing anti-coup protests, and in some cases
allegedly paid Muslim Brothers for the footage. In
response, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain withdrew
their ambassadors from Doha in March 2014, accusing it
of violating the GCC’s principle against interfering in
members’ domestic affairs. The standoff was resolved
quietly two months later, and Egyptian Brotherhood
leaders left Doha later that year.
