Trudeau Liberals spend $2M to make Cambodian women eat bugs
Nearly $2 million of your tax dollars are going to a so-called "climate-smart" agricultural program in Cambodia that teaches women how to farm crickets.
Rebel News has a new initiative, expose the ExposeTheWaste.com, where we show you all the infuriating, and woke ways Trudeau and his cronies have been burning through your money and dubbing it "foreign aid."
We found a Global Affairs Canada grant that isnât just about âhelpingâ Cambodian womenâitâs about using them as a vehicle to change entire cultures by targeting their traditional role as the gatekeepers of family diets.
This is social engineering at its most sinister, disguised as humanitarian aid. It's a Trudeau government grant that has nothing to do with helping Canadians and everything to do with globalist social engineering.
Nearly $2 million of your tax dollars are going to a so-called âclimate-smartâ agricultural program in Cambodia that teaches women how to farm crickets. Thatâs right. Female-run bug farms in Southeast Asiaâbecause apparently, Canadaâs top priority isnât feeding hungry people, our own or otherwise, or helping our own struggling farmers by removing punitive taxes and getting market access, but instead making sure Cambodians get on board with the WEFâs âeat the bugs, own nothing, and be happyâ agenda.
Now, at first glance, this looks like just another absurd waste of taxpayer moneyâbecause it isâbut itâs so much worse than that.Â
The Liberals, through Global Affairs Canada and their AGROW program, arenât just handing out grants. Theyâre targeting the most influential people in developing world householdsâwomen. Why? Because they know that in countries like Cambodia, women are in charge of what the family eats. Change their diets, and you change their culture. This is woke colonialism, plain and simple.
The Liberals arenât just funding cricket farms.Â
Theyâre funding dietary âdiversificationââwhich is bureaucrat-speak for introducing bugs into peopleâs diets under the guise of âclimate resilience.â Because the first step in making people accept their WEF-ordained future of eating insects instead of beef is normalizing it in the poorest places first. Get women to feed it to their kids, and within a generation, itâs just âthe way things are.â This is societal hijackingârewriting food traditions, undoing cultural norms, and reshaping entire communities through their stomachs.
And of course, this project is laser-focused on women.
If youâre a male farmer in Cambodia who wants to raise cattle or chickens to feed your family? Too bad. This grant is for women only, because the Liberals arenât just meddling with the food systemâtheyâre enforcing their radical gender ideology in places that have never even heard of woke politics. This isnât empowerment. Itâs forced participation in a Western-led experiment to dismantle traditional family structures and replace them with feminist, climate-conscious globalist programming.
This is the same playbook weâve seen from the World Economic Forum crowd for years. They start in poor countries, where people donât have the ability and power to push back. They test their utopian theories under the guise of âaidâ and âdevelopment.â And once itâs normalized there, theyâll bring it hereâto Canadaâwhere theyâll try to convince you that eating crickets is normal, that traditional agriculture is bad, and that giving up your food sovereignty is just part of being a good global citizen. First, they change what the world eats. Then, they change who controls the food supply. Then, they control you.
And all of thisâevery single penny of this ridiculous feminist bug-farming schemeâis being funded by you. Not to help struggling Canadians, not to fix our broken food supply, not to protect our farmers, but to experiment on a country that didnât even ask for it, all in the name of âclimate actionâ and âwomenâs empowerment.â
This is a government that never misses a chance to virtue-signal and waste your money in the process. But weâre not going to let them get away with it. Canadians are waking up to the lies, the hypocrisy, and the ideological lunacy that drives Trudeauâs policies. Weâre exposing the waste, and we wonât stop until every single one of these corrupt, globalist Liberals is out of office.
