Canadian farm producing consumable crickets lays off two-thirds of its employees

by Anthony Murdoch Nov 14, 2024

The workforce reduction at a London, Ontario, facility that received $8.5 million in government funding appears to be a sign that Canadians do not have an appetite for bugs.

It appears Canadians’ taste for eating food made from bugs is not in high demand after news broke that a farm given millions by the federal government to raise crickets for “human and pet consumption” laid off two-thirds of its staff.

The cricket farm in London, Ontario, run by the Aspire Food Group just broke ground on a new 150,000-square-foot facility last year. The company said it was cutting shifts and going from 150 workers to 50.

In comments made to the trade news outlet AgFunderNews, company CEO David Rosenberg said the layoffs are due to making “improvements to its manufacturing system.” 

The fact the company is already cutting costs in dramatic fashion comes only a short time after Canada’s federal government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau contributed $8.5 million to it in 2022.

The cricket farm when fully operational can make 13 million kilograms of crickets for “human and pet consumption.”

It was given widespread coverage several years ago by Canada’s state-funded CBC, which billed it as the “world’s largest cricket production facility.”

Aspire’s pitch that its food had a lower environmental footprint than protein from cattle or pigs was in lockstep with the radical environmental goals of the Trudeau government as one of the reasons it landed a large grant.

According to AgFunderNews, only a year ago Aspire claimed its factory would be working at 100 percent by the start of 2024.

“We have significant contractual commitments for the majority of our production and expect 100% will be sold within the year,” former CEO Mohammed Ashour told AgFunderNews in March 2023.

Groups such as the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) blasted the federal government for subsidizing companies that make food out of crickets for human consumption, saying it amounts to giving Canadians “their ‘let them eat crickets’ moment.”

Both crickets and mealworms in recent years have been promoted by global elites as a source of protein that they say could replace beef or pork, and which can also be used in a variety of foods.

Indeed, the Great Reset of Klaus Schwab and his World Economic Forum (WEF) has as part of its agenda the promotion of eating bugs to replace beef, pork, and other meats that they say have high “carbon” footprints.

The Conservative Party of Canada in an email to members said that the news regarding Aspire cutting most of its staff is proof that Canadians “will not eat bugs.”

“Justin Trudeau bet $9 million of your money on edible BUGS! He wants Canadians to own nothing, be happy, and eat crickets,” the party said in the email.

“But his bet failed. The company he invested YOUR tax dollars in has dramatically cut production and fired two-thirds of their staff. Turns out, Canadians don’t want to eat bugs.”

In 2022, Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis blasted the current cancel-culture crusade against red meat by pushing bugs as a source of food and the Trudeau government for funding bug factories.

The Trudeau government has implemented many policies that align with the WEF’s so-called “climate change” agenda, including a punishing carbon tax, and attacks on the nation’s oil and gas industries.

Trump lays a minefield around the German new elections

Friedrich Merz, the CDU leader, who is currently in pole position for the new elections scheduled for February, has confirmed his threats to Russia. Bad enough. But there is also the panic caused by the election of Donald Trump in Berlin.

…Corona. Some unpleasant things are likely to come to light, if indeed Robert Kennedy Jr. the opportunity to clarify this topic. It is still hard to predict how deep this will go. Of course, anyone who wants to know can already find a lot: the fact that most of the corona measures did not bring any demonstrable benefit, but caused a lot of damage, has actually been on the table for a long time. But it is still relatively successful to keep this information out of the mainstream media and to pretend that the files can simply be closed. This would be much more difficult if a serious investigation took place in the United States. Especially if this clarification is then reflected in court proceedings.

The issue, however, is relatively complex, and it will take some time before one has come forward to the ground; Donald Trump's take-ence on 20th century. January, in a maximum of one month, not much has been uncovered. But even this point could have played a role in the fact that Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz has agreed to a former new election date.

What will definitely ignite before is Ukraine. Even if Trump's election promise to end the conflict in 24 hours remains rather unredeable and the plans that have been known so far are simply unacceptable – if an honest assessment of the military situation is expressed there, this is problematic in Germany. After all, there is always only now to hear Ukraine vie, and that compromises should not be made with Russia.

A mantra that is sung unanimously by the whole war front in the Bundestag, red black yellow green, and enthusiastically picked up by the leading media. The information situation in the USA itself alone is likely to lead to the fact that there must be justified there, because the exit from the Ukraine project must be justified to a public sphere that is largely as the German facts come to the table, first of all. Tulsi Gabbard as supervision over all U.S. intelligence and known opponents of the worldwide wars will already ensure that the evaluations coming outside from the "intelligence community" have some more contact with reality, and the first statement that will emerge is that Ukraine has already lost.

That would be the second issue on which it becomes more difficult to suppress information. Especially because on the basis of this information, actions could happen that – because in the USA – it is simply not possible to report. And here, too, if it were really generally known how mercilessly burned up Ukraine, only to weaken Russia, if the possible consequences must also be named for Germany (there are already fears that a few million more refugees come from there), then this not only has the consequence that the leading media will lose the rest of their credibility. The same applies to the war front in politics.

Then, of course, there is another issue that could be broken down, because this US administration will also take a different position in the "climate policy". And again it is an issue in which every deviation has been tabooed in Germany and which has already caused considerable damage.

February is in any case a less dangerous date in this context than March. But there is another option that could unfold before. After all, there is still an issue, even if you have downplayed it with all your strength in the last two years.

What if Trump publicly apologized for the blast of Nord Stream? Just thinking so in the blue … Would that be one statement that could be easily ignored? And what effects would this have once the results of Seymour Hersh were briefly reproduced, only to be quickly concealed with the history of Ukrainian hobby divers on the Andromeda? Really every effort has been made to distract from a connection between US policy and high gas prices, if a US president throws it up?

Not to be forgotten, it has been mainly cold authorities and homes that led the Germans in mind (or rather to goose bumps) that have followed the USA. But this winter, this news would be on a steadily growing list of layoffs, short-time work and factory closures, coupled with a lot of dark slump, rising electricity prices (if it remains there; so far, it has only been the burglary in production that has stabilized the German electricity grids) and a returning inflation. How will the Germans then take it off when the political class suddenly suffered with lowered pants?

Further mass displacement possible in Ukraine if energy sector hit, UN warns

By Emma Farge November 15, 2024

GENEVA, Nov 15 (Reuters) - Any additional Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy system could trigger a further wave of mass displacement as winter approaches, a senior U.N. official said on Friday.

As the war grinds towards its third winter, civilians are more vulnerable than at any other winter during the conflict due to Russian strikes on its energy system and donor fatigue, said U.N. Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine Matthias Schmale.

"The real concern is if they were to target the energy sector again, this could be a tipping point…for further mass movements, both inside the country and outside the country," he told reporters in Geneva.

Any further displacement would add to the 3.6 million that are currently displaced within Ukraine and the more than 6 million who have fled across its borders to escape the conflict that began when Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

Around 65% of Ukraine's own energy production is currently offline due to Russian strikes which is more than at this same point of the year in 2022 or 2023, Schmale said.

Ukraine now relies mostly on power generated by its nuclear plants and its grid operator this week introduced power limits for businesses in the first such move since August after a massive Russian missile and drone attack.

The United Nations and partners are implementing the Humanitarian Winter Response Plan aiming to address emergency needs by delivering fuel and other items to help people stay warm.

Shelters, known as Invincibility Points, where residents can warm up and drink tea have also been set up, he said.

Schmale voiced particular concern about people stranded in high-rise buildings and the disabled and elderly living close to the front line in Kharkiv and Kherson.

So far, aid workers have reached about half of the 1.7 million people targeted but funding shortages are constraining efforts, he said.

This year, the U.N. humanitarian response has received $1.8 billion out of $3.1 billion sought which is less than in 2022 and 2023, he said.

"So the trend is clearly downwards, but we still get a lot of money compared to other crisis situations and our plea is that this is maintained because the war is not over."
