Russian Tweets ‘Sorry to See Canada Support Ukrainian Neo-Nazis’
“Sorry to see the ruling liberal clique under Trudeau having subdued Canada with … support for Ukrainian Neo-Nazis agenda,” Russia’s Foreign Ministry tweeted.
On Monday, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on Twitter expressing disappointment in Canada’s recent round of sanctions and Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s desire for regime change.
“We’re able to see how much we’re isolating the Russian regime right now — because we need to do so economically, politically, and diplomatically — and what the impacts are on society and how much we’re seeing potential regime change in Russia,” Joly told the CBC on Friday.
“The goal is unmistakably…to undermine Russia’s ability to launch difficult attacks against Ukraine. We also want to ensure that Putin and his enablers are held accountable, “She stated. “I always make a fundamental distinction between the regime and the people of a given country.”

“Canadian FM @melaniejoly declared regime change in Russia foreign policy goal of Canada…officially,” wrote the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Twitter. “Sorry to see the ruling liberal clique having subdued Canada with decadent anti-family, pro-drug & support for Ukrainian Neo-Nazis agenda.”
On Monday evening, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky praised the Canadian foreign minister’s sentiments in his nightly address to the nation on Monday evening.
“We’re also working on new sanctions against Russia,” Zelensky said. “Canada recently took a significant step forward by expanding sanctions on Russian aluminum and steel imports. I thank Canada for this decision, for sending a signal to the rest of the world.”
Canada’s Economy
Meanwhile, the Canadian economy is in shambles due to Justin Trudeau’s disastrous policies. Trudeau has repeatedly stated that “growing the economy” is his top priority, but his policies have resulted in slower growth than he had hoped. The life of the average Canadian is now defined by historically high unemployment rates, massive government debt, inflation, and rising interest rates.
The country faces numerous challenges, including housing, food, and health. Because of this precarious situation, Ukrainian migrants prefer to return to their war-torn country rather than stay in Canada.
The former head of Doctors Without Borders says Ottawa must do more to assist Ukrainian refugees in navigating the complexities of paperwork and logistics to come to Canada, lest it repeats past mistakes.
“We have seen the failures of not keeping our promises in Afghanistan. And we cannot repeat history,” said Joanne Liu, a Montreal emergency physician who recently returned from three weeks in Ukraine, where she was impressed by the warm reception she received when she presented her Canadian passport.
Many in the country remember early Canadian promises to stand by Ukraine, making Canada “a place of promise, a place of hope,” Dr. Liu said. “We have to keep our promise,” she added, referring to the bureaucratic hurdles Ukrainians must overcome before coming to Canada.
“We absolutely must remove the red tape. It’s not enough to tell people who want to come here, “Well, we’ve extended the hours of our consulates.”
CUAET
According to TFIGlobal, On March 17, 2022, Canada launched a new temporary residence pathway, the Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel (CUAET) program, for those fleeing the war in Ukraine.
CUAET is open to an unlimited number of Ukrainians, regardless of their existing ties to Canada, and is offered a special family reunification program.
While this may appear an open and benevolent gesture, Ukrainians are welcomed into the Canadian nation not as humanitarian subjects but as workers who may contribute to the Canadian economy.
Those concerned about the current “refugee crisis” point to the differential treatment of others seeking asylum in Canada. In contrast to the potentially unlimited number of Ukrainian nationals who could be streamlined through CUAET, the country limited the number of Syrian and Afghan refugees eligible for asylum and, even then, only admitted 8,500 Afghan refugees (out of a possible 40,000) and 25,000 Syrians.
Behind Trudeau’s holiness, however, is a sinister agenda. In contrast to the family reunion program, which provides a path to permanent residency, CUAET will accept any number of Ukrainians, albeit temporarily, and will provide residency for a maximum of three years.
To put it another way, because people arriving via the CUAET are not claiming to be refugees, they are not subject to the standard (albeit flawed) procedure for determining whether they are refugees.
They will also not be refugees receiving government assistance and enjoying benefits normally reserved for citizens. The CUAET is a temporary residence track, not a refugee stream. The Canadian government has stated this unequivocally.
Visa Free Entry
Despite the horrors in Ukraine, Liberal members of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration unanimously voted against a motion to implement visa-free travel from Ukraine to Canada on March 1, 2022.
In doing so, the Canadian government actively discourages Ukrainian nationals from seeking asylum in Canada, a clear violation of the country’s stated commitment to refugee protection.
Canada is leveraging the Ukraine crisis to boost its economy.
“Applicants are strongly encouraged to apply for a 3-year open work permit concurrently with their [temporary visa] application,” the CUAET stated explicitly. This is an appropriate application for temporary open work permits for Canada, which has a severe labor shortage.
Justin Trudeau praised CUAET as a transparent and helpful strategy. Nonetheless, Ukrainians appear to be welcomed in Canada, primarily as laborers and secondarily as humanitarians.
Furthermore, by promoting the economic interests of Canadian immigration and normalizing temporary migrant schemes, the program risks undermining the country’s fragile refugee protection system.
Doubtless, the Ukrainian migrants are dismayed and want to return to their home country, even though there is a tremendous threat to their lives in Ukraine. As a result, the tragic story of Ukrainian migrants in Canada is yet another example of Justin Trudeau’s inept leadership.

Telehealth May Be Able to Stop Suicide in High-Risk Individuals.
(VOR News) – The results of a recent study suggest that telehealth therapy may lower the risk of suicide. In the United States, a study was conducted.
The results of a study that was published in the journal JAMA Network Open on November 12 indicate that cognitive behavior therapy can help lower the number of suicide attempts and thoughts.
US Telehealth researchers conducted the study.
This predicament is still true even when therapy is delivered via telehealth for a little period of time. As a result of the information they discovered during the investigation, the researchers finally reached this conclusion.
According to a study conducted by clinical psychologist Justin Baker, a researcher at Ohio State University, this is information that should be promoted.
According to Baker, this is a result of the fact that, at this specific point in history, therapy is increasingly being delivered via the use of virtual methods.
Baker was said to have stated, “The nearly overnight shift from mostly in-person to mostly virtual therapy appointments following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic was the impetus for this research question.” Ohio State published a press release that contained this message.
In making this claim, Baker was alluding to the fact that the shift occurred very immediately after the outbreak began. Baker was referring to the changes brought about by the pandemic outbreak spreading significantly.
It has long been thought that patients who are deemed to be at high risk are not suitable candidates for virtual healthcare. This is because the use of virtual healthcare is linked to both accountability and the possibility of harm.
We randomly assigned the following telehealth programs to 96 Americans:
They received instruction on how to control and alter the disturbing ideas and bad notions they were experiencing through telehealth cognitive behavioral therapy, with a special emphasis on suicide. They received this instruction while participating in the activity.
A treatment method called present-centered therapy is used to help patients deal with the difficulties they are currently confronting in their life.
The results of the study conducted by the researchers demonstrated that a present-focused approach to treatment is a successful way to reduce depressive symptoms and suicidal thoughts. Research has shown that therapeutic approaches that focus on the present moment are useful.
However, the results of this study show that when it came to reducing the proportion of patients who attempted suicide while getting telehealth services, cognitive behavioral therapy outperformed present-centered therapy.
Furthermore, the results showed that both treatments were effective in lowering the number of suicidal thoughts that patients thought about taking their own lives. The effectiveness of both therapies served as evidence for this.
Craig Bryan, a researcher and the chairman of telehealth Ohio State University’s Suicide Prevention Program, says, “We have good, tested treatments that will lead to significant symptom reduction and improved quality of life for those who are suffering from suicidal thoughts and behaviors.”
In addition, Bryan is currently the program’s leader. Additionally, Bryan is currently in charge of the program. “We have treatments that have been proven to be effective.”
Bryan said that a considerable percentage of therapists are still maintaining some aspect of their telemedicine practice following the epidemic, even though limitations are being loosened.
This leads to the scenario even when boundaries are being loosened. “The results of this study have the potential to expand access to essential treatments that are supported by evidence for people living in rural and difficult-to-reach areas.”
You should call the telehealth Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 if you or a loved one is experiencing an emotional or suicide crisis if you are experiencing emotional distress. They are available to listen to your issues as well as offer support.

The Main US Inflation Tracker Increased For The First Time Since March.

The Main US Inflation Tracker Increased For The First Time Since March.
(VOR News) – The challenging road to lower levels is demonstrated by the fact that one of the most important measures of inflation in the United States has increased for the first time since March.
The consumer price index (CPI), a metric that gauges price inflation across a variety of goods, at an annual rate of 2.6% as October reached its peak. The CPI has never been higher than it was at this time.
According to reports, the rate was 2.4% last month, the lowest in over three years. This rate is higher than the one that was noted the month before.
Eliminating food and energy, “core” inflation stayed at 3.3%.
This occurred upon completion of the computation. Following this stage, the index underwent a thorough analysis. A reading was considered accurate if it agreed with the estimates provided by economists.
Even though inflation has somewhat decreased since reaching its greatest level in four decades in the summer of 2022, many Americans still face financial hardship as a result of years of rising prices. This can be attributed to the fact that inflation peaked in the summer of 2022.
According to exit poll results, a significant number of Republican voters expressed dissatisfaction with their own financial circumstances as well as the state of the US economy.
Their voiced displeasure was a reflection of their dissatisfaction. A significant factor that contributed to the election was the ire generated by the rising cost of living. This rage was among the most important factors.
Concerns have been expressed regarding the real effects that these reforms would have on the inflation rate. Donald Trump proposed tax cuts and tariffs as workable answers throughout his campaign, but there have been questions raised over the real effects of these measures.
The next president has promised to levy tariffs on all U.S. imports that are at least 10 percent higher than the current rate, according to the results of a research by Yale’s Budget Lab.
The implementation of this strategy, which many industry experts believe would almost surely result in an increase in inflation of up to 5.1%, has already been made public.
It was the first time in four years that the Federal Reserve started lowering interest rates in September, which marked the first time in four years they had done so.
This was the first time they had ever implemented inflation.
The Federal Reserve has reached a significant turning point in its attempts to control inflation at this particular moment. Additional interest rate cuts were implemented Monday, lowering them to their lowest point since February 2023. Since February 2023, they have not been this low.
The Federal Reserve’s chairman, Jerome Powell, said the Fed “has gained confidence that we’re on a sustainable path down to 2%,” the target it has set for its inflation rate.
He hosted a news conference where he made this declaration. Considering the previously mentioned, he added that “the task is incomplete.”
As part of its “dual mandate,” the Fed is working to keep inflation from rising while also keeping the unemployment rate from rising. This is being done from the Federal Reserve’s point of view.
Over the past few months, the labor market has been significantly slowing down; in October, the United States created just 12,000 new jobs.
This suggests that there is a downturn in the labor market. In October 2023, the unemployment rate was 4.1%, which was a low figure that was similar to levels before the sickness started. Since the illness had not yet spread, this was the situation. This occurred following a reduction in the rate, which came to 3.4% in February 2023.
In response to a query concerning the impact of the election on the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decisions, Powell said that officials “do not know the timing or substance of any policy changes.”
Powell was questioned on the significance of the election. As a consequence, we are unable to determine the possible economic impact of this. The current circumstances are to blame for this.

Trudeau Government Forces Port Workers Back to Work
The Trudeau government has invoked federal authority to halt union strike actions at the ports of Vancouver, Prince Rupert, and Montreal, claiming economic damage and the loss of trading partners.
This is the second time in a few months that the Trudeau government has intervened to end a labor conflict. In August, Trudeau ordered work stoppages at the country’s two main railway corporations to cease.
Canadian Labor Minister Steven MacKinnon stated that the supply chain has been damaged and that it will take weeks to clear the container congestion affecting Canadian and US companies. He informed reporters that he had ordered the country’s industrial relations board to end the strike and impose binding arbitration.
“As the economic losses threaten the country and begin to mount, it is up to the government to ensure that … we can get on with the economic life of this country and avoid layoffs and other carnage,” he stated during a news conference.
“Canadians have a limited tolerance right now for economic self-harm.”
The issue, which MacKinnon claimed was hurting more than C$1.3 billion ($932 million) in goods every day, has already hampered shipments of canola oil, forest products, and other goods. Business organizations applauded the announcement.
Union Strike Action Heads to Court
International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 514, representing supervisory longshore workers at the core of the British Columbia conflict, has announced that it will submit a legal challenge to the minister’s instructions.
“We will fight this order in the courts,” stated Frank Morena, president of ILWU Local 514.
“And we will not forget how these employers and this federal Liberal government have attacked not only the ILWU but all of labor.”
MacKinnon said the Canada Industrial Relations Board, which is independent but reports to Ottawa, will issue the required orders in a few days.
The left-leaning government has previously declared that it prefers to resolve labor problems through collective bargaining. MacKinnon said he was forced to interfere when federal mediators reported that discussions in Montreal and Vancouver had reached a stalemate.
The left-of-center opposition New Democrats, a pro-union group supporting the minority Liberal administration, accused Ottawa of giving in to employers.
“Back-to-work orders suppress wages for all Canadians, so billionaires get richer, and the rest of us fall further behind,” leader Jagmeet Singh said in a statement but did not mention bringing the Liberals down.
Trudeau Government Sends Dangerous Message
The Teamsters union, representing employees at the two major train companies, has launched court challenges to labor board judgments that ordered them back to work.
“The government is sending a dangerous message: employers can bypass meaningful negotiations, lock out their workers, and wait for political intervention to secure a more favorable deal,” the Canadian Labour Congress said.
After rejecting a final offer for a new labor deal, the Montreal Longshoremen’s Union called a lockout. As a result, canola oil and forest products exports from West Coast ports, including Vancouver, have ceased.
“These work stoppages are impacting our supply chain, hundreds of thousands of Canadian jobs, our economy, and our reputation as a reliable international trading partner,” said MacKinnon, who said employers and unions had not acted quickly enough.
“I’ve directed the Canada Industrial Relations Board to order that all operations and duties at the ports resume and to assist the parties in settling their collective agreements by imposing final and binding arbitration,” he told reporters.
