This is the most frightening column ever to be posted on Canada FreePress/Americas Free Press, and we can honestly assure all readers that every word of it is true.
For pro-American-President-Donald-Trump-CFP/AFP, trying to heat our home and office has suddenly become deadly political.
This Winter’s sub-zero temps and high winds blowing in off the Atlantic came early, and were already putting us at great risk before Liberal politics hit.
Not always able to come up with the $1,100 required to fill our basement oil furnace on the exact date when it runs out, we count on a propane-fuelled fireplace in the kitchen, while bolstered by thick sweaters.
We only turn the furnace on when it is coldest, and always turn it off at night. We only start the propane-fed fireplace for half an hour first thing in the morning when we begin our work day, and of late have turned it on again for half hours at a time when the cold is most piercing—and like many Nova Scotians end up searching for ways to only heat part of the house.
We have paid Ontario-based Superior Propane, to deliver propane for our fireplace for the past four late falls and winters, ever since our 2022 escape to Nova Scotia.
In November, when we telephoned for our refill, the woman on the other end of the line sternly reminded us that they wouldn’t make the refill unless we paid up for it in advance—even though for the past three years, we have always been good customers, willingly paying up in advance.
Last month after paying, we were informed that it could take weeks before they could get to us with the refill. Alarmed, we decided to write about this in a front page story. One day after we wrote about this, their truck showed up shortly after 9 a.m., even though their company hadn’t been identified by name.
This time, our fireplace ran out of gas, with our oil furnace barely half full.
Incredibly, when we reminded Superior that without furnace oil, our fireplace is our only source of heat, they told us that the Nova Scotia Government “does not consider a propane-fuelled fireplace a source of heat”! Therefore, we are not high enough on the list to be refilled in a hurry.
With the propane-fuelled fireplace, we aren’t trying to heat the house, but only desperately trying to keep warm at our working spot.
If you are still with us, a little background of how we ended up in Nova Scotia, the province no longer anything like the one where I was raised as a child.
In the immediate aftermath of the Truckers Freedom Convoy, we departed our 30-year-long Ontario home for Nova Scotia, when Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatened to freeze the bank accounts of any and all who supported the Convoy, of which CFP was one.
How is it that hard-working CFP has suddenly become politically-victimized by the anti-American Canadian Government?
TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) is not only alive and kicking in Canada, it is absolutely flourishing here.
We are literally hated by most of our neighbors in the tiny fishing village where we now live, and were once even threatened with physical assault upon arrival at the local dog park/ball park by a woman who we were told viewed us as passionate Donald Trump supporters.
Virulent Anti-Trump hatred has been on the rise here ever since Ottawa Liberals managed to convince Canadians that Trump is responsible for Canada’s financial decline during last April’s Snap Election campaign.
PM Mark Carney’s Liberals lied in blaming Canada’s 10-year-long economic decline on a Trump 3-month presidency—and thus far got away with it.
The anti-Trump fever runs rampantly through Canada’s bought-and-paid-for, government-controlled media.
Even as recently as this Tuesday, an ‘Entertainment columnist in the Toronto Star, Canada’s largest newspaper, referred to Trump as “Agent Orange”, in a puff piece story boosting America hater Ontario Premier Doug Ford:
After Donald Trump’s capture of Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, does Doug Ford need to watch his back? (Toronto Star, Jan.6, 2026)
President Trump, I am making this call out to you, personally, for help.
I am viscerally hated in Canada for being a DJT champion on my independent news site, having personally been your loyal fan ever since interviewing you as a fill-in Toronto Sun story, at the United Nations, so many moons ago.
Your sincere passion in the fight to save New York City’s Central Park’s Wollman ice rink has stayed with me all these years, because I left NYC with the unshakeable belief that you are still today what you were back then, resolved and unstoppable in your beliefs, passionate and committed.
My call-out to you today, albeit dramatically, is asking: “Is there anything you can do to stop the Ottawa Liberals from freezing to death the owners of this little but fiercely independent news site?
Meanwhile, no matter what the outcome, I will always go on believing in you in my cold and lonely Canadian outpost.
