This doesn't read as batshit as Project 2025. The 4 memos they've posted are:

  1. Build more transport infrastructure
  2. Modernize our healthcare info system
  3. Prioritize high skilled workers in immigration
  4. Cultural programs to encourage Canadian Pride

IMO only the fourth one is somewhat questionable

#4 is weird.

I looked through the specific changes and it’s basically, “all Canadian media needs an element of ‘hoorah Canada!’”

Totally unnecessary and I don’t like the idea of mandating national pride.

Definitely not as batshit, yet. Self-serving - likely.

If you read into them, you see stuff that is not exactly what the titles imply. For example the immigration changes are proposed by the guy behind the infamous app that was bringing in international students in questionable circumstances. His new company also has to do with immigration. I read it as - use my thing to do immigration selection, or hire me to build it.
