7. TRUDEAU INVOKES THE EMERGENCY ACT
For nearly 3 years is when I have raised
concerns about eco-terrorism and
nothing was said by @JustinTrudeau and
his team, why? The trucker convoy
happens, and now eco-terrorism is
important to Trudeau, right?

11. CANADIAN FORCES AND SPENDING
https://nationalpost.com/opinion/tasha-kheiriddin-canada-needs-the-ability-to-defend-itself-in-an-increasingly-
uncertain-world
Hey Tasha, Who has abandoned the military? @JustinTrudeau CAN is still spending about 1% of GDP on
defense as compared to the NATO commitment of 2% of GDP

12. DIGITAL AND SMALL BUSINESSES
https://betakit.com/canadian-government-launches-4-billion-canada-digital-adoption-program/
@JustinTrudeau should be looking at the tax act and not throwing money at grants and loans.
Trudeau also does not look eCommerce stats, or he would see that about 10% of retail sales are
now online!

13. TULSI GUBBARD VS JUSTIN TRUDEAU

14. CARBON TAX
CArbon tax and PBO
_ Report.pdf
Hey Lorrie
https://torontosun.com/opinion/editorials/editorial
-carbon-tax-higher-than-rebate-for-most
You know many of us, especially
@GasPriceWizard knew the so-called rebate
system by @JustinTrudeau and his team was a lie!
I was very close a few years ago when I said
$1,253 (After the rebate)

emissions (see slide 45)
@MarkGerretsen can we expect a spin from you

15. EMEA PARLIAMENT AND TRUDEAU
https://twitter.com/JustinTrudeau/status/1506

Why on earth would anyone sit down with
@JustinTrudeau, especially on how Trudeau
handles the truckers as well as being a failure
on foreign policies and affairs. Good to see
the photographers took a pitcher of Trudeau's
socks!

16. BATTERY PLANT – ONTARIO
Good question for @OmarAlghabra as to where the Li, Ni,
cobalt, & other materials will come from in terms of
sources. China & Russia have a great deal of control over
those minerals. Congo and other countries have bad labor
practices.

19. RUSSIA OIL AND GAS
Liberals vote against
motion for Canada to export more gas to Europe - The Western Standard.pdf
Summary: https://www.slideshare.net/paulyoungcga/whats-next-for-natural-gas-lngpptx
Warm winter has led to a reduction in natural gas prices. However, this drop could be a hiccup as countries move to
summer where air conditioners are about to driver up costs to electricity.
Liberals voted down a motion to expand natural gas to EMEA -
https://www.trendsmap.com/twitter/tweet/1506006239515639808
Qatar has signed a deal to expand LNG shipments to Germany
EMEA is looking at solar and wind as part of the energy solution. The problem is both solar and wind rely on critical metals
which Russia and China have a great control over the reserves and production facilities
