The Family of the Illegal Boulder Terrorist Is Being Deported

The wife and children of Egyptian illegal alien Mohamad Soliman, the terrorist who firebombed Americans peacefully walking on the street in downtown Boulder Sunday, have been taken into Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody and will be deported soon.

Can you imagine that happening in Canada? Me neither.

Canada investigates dual-citizens serving in IDF for war crimes, fueling concerns of growing hostility toward Israel

Canadian citizens who have recently served in Israel’s army are being quietly investigated for war crimes, according to the Toronto Star. 

Canadian media reported on Tuesday that individuals involved in combating Iranian-backed terror in the war triggered by Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack are now facing criminal investigations. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) are reportedly questioning Canadian citizens – both active-duty and reservist members of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) – regarding allegations of committing crimes against humanity during their service.

Trump signs order to double steel and aluminum tariffs at midnight

U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday doubling the tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to 50 per cent, a move one Canadian industry official warned would have “unrecoverable consequences.”

The new rate will take effect at midnight, according to the order.

“Although the previously imposed steel and aluminum tariffs have helped provide critical price support in the United States market, they have not yet enabled these industries to develop and maintain the rates of capacity production utilization that are necessary for the industries’ sustained health and for projected national defence needs,” read the order, which was published online after global markets closed.

Brace yourselves for more Quran-burning trials in Britain

You might well have felt slightly repelled if last February you had passed someone ineptly trying to set fire to a copy of the Quran on the streets of London, while simultaneously using some remarkably fruity language about Islamic doctrine and its effect on believers. The man was Turkish dissident Hamit Coşkun: much to the disgust of a passing Muslim, he was burning the book outside the Turkish consulate as a demonstration against the excessive Islamification of Turkey under Recep Erdoğan.

But whatever your distaste, you should be very worried about the fact that this man has now been branded a criminal – indeed, a hate criminal. Yesterday a district judge at Westminster Magistrates’ Court had no compunction at convicting him of a religiously aggravated public order offence of engaging in disorderly conduct likely to cause distress. The judgment (available here) makes fairly dry reading. But its effect on free speech is very concerning.

The ‘New Warfare’ Comes of Age: Are We Ready?

I’m filled with admiration for Ukraine’s daring and imaginative strike this weekend at high-value targets across the length and breadth of Russia. I don’t for a moment believe that, by itself, this one strategic blow will change the outcome of the war, but if the Ukrainians can continue to find fresh ways to extend the scope of the conflict, to inflict damage deep inside Russia, and to force the Russian armed forces to defend as well as attack, then the entire conflict might well take on a new and entirely different dimension.

U.K.’s defence review has lessons for Canada, says former NATO chief

Britain intends to expand its submarine fleet and refresh its nuclear deterrent capability as part of a wide-ranging defence review that one of its authors says Canada should read and take to heart.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who ordered the review, unveiled the plan, saying it is meant to prepare the country to fight a modern war and counter the threat from Russia.

“We face war in Europe, new nuclear risks, daily cyberattacks, growing Russian aggression in our waters, menacing our skies,” Starmer said during a media availability at the Govan Shipbuilders Ltd. yard in Scotland.

Starmer, as part of his statement Monday, pledged a hefty increase to U.K. defence spending, bringing it to 2.5 per cent of the gross domestic product by 2027, with “the ambition to hit three per cent in the next Parliament.” He added, however, the goals are subject to economic and fiscal conditions.


They aren’t ready for war … neither are we.

Nato will force Britain to spend 3.5pc on defence

Nato will force Britain to spend 3.5 per cent of GDP on defence by 2032, The Telegraph understands.

On Monday, Sir Keir Starmer said he had an “ambition” to reach 3 per cent by the end of the next Parliament, but stopped short of a firm commitment.

However, at a summit in The Hague later this month, Nato countries will commit to a new target of 3.5 per cent, plus an additional 1.5 per cent on defence-related infrastructure by 2032.

Funny. I haven’t heard Carney mention the increase to 3.5%

Inside the Push for Stronger Safeguards on Sexually Explicit Content in Canadian School Libraries

Two years ago, Raelyn Fox found a book in her daughter’s bedroom that caused her concern. Her 11-year-old always kept a stack of library books on the dresser, and until then, Fox hadn’t thought much about what was in them.

But after hearing news about parents raising concerns over age-inappropriate content in school library books, and coming across online lists of flagged titles, Fox, who lives in southern rural Manitoba, decided to take a closer look. Two of the flagged books were in her daughter’s bedroom.

OTTAWA — New powers to Canada’s coast guard, immigration and postal officials are among a slate of new measures being introduced by the Mark Carney Liberals.

Bill C2 — the Strong Borders Act — involves continued steps by the Liberal government to shore up Canada’s borders, and directly respond to demands made by U.S. President Donald Trump, Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said Tuesday.

Nate Silver on Why Young Men Are Leaving Democratic Party

Rosa DeLauro

If you spend any amount of time on X, it’s impossible to miss the pattern.

Democrats are angry. Depressed. They scream at the camera. They fantasize about violence against “oppressors.” They film themselves weeping, wailing, and gnashing their teeth. Just as you can be reasonably certain that anybody who flies an American flag is a Republican, you can be equally confident that everybody who wears a mask in 2025 (or back in 2024, 2023, or 2022) is a strong Democrat.
