Jesse Kline: Mark Carney fast tracks the road to serfdom

Have you heard the good news: our federal, provincial and territorial leaders all agree on the pressing need to build the critical infrastructure necessary to develop our natural resources, get them to market and turn Canada into an “energy superpower.”

Yet despite all the optimism and goodwill expressed by Prime Minister Mark Carney and his provincial counterparts following the first ministers’ meeting in Saskatoon on Monday, it’s readily apparent that the seeds of disunity and obstructionism are already taking root.

Right on Time, ABC News Would Like to Remind America of Its ‘Islamophobia’

Let’s recap. We’ve had twenty months of radical intimidation campaigns targeting Jews on college campuses in the US. In recent weeks, the Jewish governor of Pennsylvania got firebombed out of the state’s mansion. An assassin executed two Israeli embassy employees and injured several others outside of a Jewish museum in Washington DC. And last week, a self-proclaimed jihadist attempted to murder dozens of Jewish demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado with Molotov cocktails and a makeshift flamethrower.

Ontario’s Bill 5 set to become law, potentially sparking confrontation with First Nations

The Ford government’s controversial mining legislation has passed its third reading and is set to become law, potentially triggering a face-off with First Nations communities in Ontario.

Among other changes, Bill 5, or the Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, will create so-called special economic zones where a range of laws, ranging from municipal approvals to environmental rules or even labour law, won’t apply.

Child of our times: how Japan’s birthrate fell to record low

The country has had nine consecutive years of declining births despite government efforts to halt the demographic crisis

It was a story of extraordinary national renewal. After decades in the grip of military imperial rule, millions dead in a war that traversed oceans and two cities flattened by atom bombs, the Japanese people picked themselves up and made babies.

Between 1945 and 1965, a nascent democracy flourished, the economy boomed and Japan’s population rocketed from 72 million to almost 100 million. By the turn of the millennium, the mountainous archipelago, the vast majority of whose population is squeezed into lower-lying coastal areas, was home to 127 million people, four times the population of Canada, which is 26 times larger.

Lessons from a Disgraced LGBT Nonprofit

The group’s founder pleaded guilty to wire fraud, signaling the need for greater oversight.

With a guilty plea to wire fraud in a federal courtroom last July, Ruby Corado’s fall from grace reached a new low. Corado was once much celebrated in D.C. as the face of Casa Ruby, a nonprofit that promised safe harbor and social services to transgender-identifying and immigrant Washingtonians. Corado parlayed this role into breathless news coverage, an award from the Human Rights Campaign, and a Georgetown speaking engagement. Hundreds of thousands of vaporized taxpayer dollars later, Corado is the face of a scandal that left staff unpaid, clients stranded, and city officials red-faced.

Minister lacked details about CSIS operation linked to asset who reportedly smuggled teens

A federal watchdog agency found a breakdown of ministerial accountability after reviewing a clandestine operation abroad connected to claims a CSIS operative smuggled teenage girls into Syria to join ISIS.

The National Security and Intelligence Review Agency (NSIRA) released a heavily redacted version of a top-secret report last week. CBC News has now learned the case involving smuggling claims triggered the review into human source operations.

The report found CSIS failed to give the public safety minister enough details about an operation. A CSIS memo also didn’t convey past issues, and that a number of CSIS activities are “problematic and potentially unlawful,” to help guide his scrutiny of the proposed operation, the report said.

Why Hamas Rejected Witkoff’s Ceasefire Plan

The leaders of the Iran-backed Hamas terror group do not seem to be in a rush to end the war with Israel: after all, they and their family members are not living in the Gaza Strip, which has been turned into a war zone over the past 20 months.

Hamas’s political leaders, billionaires funded by Iran’s mullahs and the rulers of Qatar, live in several Arab and Islamic countries, including Qatar, Turkey, Algeria and Lebanon. They and their family members lead luxurious lives in these countries and do not have to worry about lack of food or medicine.

Honest Injun! Fraser apologizes, says comments on Indigenous consultation eroded trust

OTTAWA – Justice Minister Sean Fraser apologized Wednesday for comments he made about the government’s duty to consult with Indigenous leaders on major projects.

Fraser said Tuesday that the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples requires consultation but does not amount to “a blanket veto power” over projects.

Peel school board’s former anti-discrimination leader sues for wrongful dismissal, breach of contract

The former head of the Peel public school board’s anti-discrimination work has sued the board, alleging she was unlawfully fired after years of trying to hold her employer accountable for “resistance” to equity initiatives.

The 41-page statement of claim comes nearly eight years after Poleen Grewal was appointed by the Peel District School Board to advance equity and anti-racism initiatives in its more than 250 schools. The $7.5 million suit alleges in part that the board failed to support those initiatives, sought reprisal against her when she expressed concerns, and ultimately fired her to “appease staff opposed to equity and anti-Black racism” programs.

She sounds like a real piece of work.

“Later that year, Joshua launched a workplace investigation against Grewal after an unnamed trustee and teacher alleged that Grewal had directed staff at her son’s PDSB school to award him high marks without merit. The claim alleges Joshua failed to recuse himself from overseeing the investigation, despite being named as a respondent in the human rights application.”

JD Vance Nukes Harvard for Its Authoritarian Lack of Diversity

At the American Compass Gala in Washington, Tuesday night, Vice President JD Vance delivered a scathing critique of elite academia that cut straight to the heart of what’s wrong with American higher education. In a room filled with conservative thought leaders and policy minds, Vance did what few Republican politicians have the guts to do—he called out the intellectual rot inside places like Harvard for what it is: ideological groupthink masquerading as enlightenment.
