Reading things like this makes it make sense as to why the government is putting big efforts into reducing legal gun ownership (and the type of guns targeted, ex. 50 cal rifles) instead of going after criminals and makes sense of things like the Online Harms Bill… The elites are trying to prevent a repeat of 1789 France or 1917 Russia.

    tHe ELiteS 🙄

    In addition to worsening living standards, the RCMP also warns of a future increasingly defined by unpredictable weather and seasonal catastrophes, such as wildfires and flooding.

    Well at least they’re recognizing climate change.

    The RCMP report looks legitimate when you view it in that tiny little iFrame at the bottom of the article. Interestingly though, if you try to view it full-screen it takes you to the website Scribd, where it was hosted, which says it has been removed.

    I also don’t see it on Matt Malone’s website (the person the article says made the ATIP request), Open By Default, where there is a searchable index of ATIP requests and results.

    https://theijf.org/open-by-default/search?q=whole+of+government+five+year+trends&sort=score&startYear=2023&endYear=2024&orgs=Royal+Canadian+Mounted+Police

    The ID number on the report doesn’t even match the formatting of ID numbers for ATIP requests.

    NatPo ID: A0013001_6

    Random ID from Open By Default: A-2023-09971

    I won’t say it’s for sure fake, it looks very real and would have taken some effort to put together, but there’s no corroborating evidence of this report existing outside of this NatPo opinion piece
