Christopher Dummitt: Systemic discrimination is legal in Canada

Systemic discrimination is legal in Canada. It’s just not the systemic discrimination most people talk about.

The entirely legal forms of systemic discrimination are the so-called “ameliorative programs” meant to help those whom the Charter calls “disadvantaged groups.”

The case that’s always been made for this kind of “affirmative action” — the friendly word for “progressive” discrimination — is that it’s meant to fix a historic and ongoing problem. Certain groups have suffered discrimination and this has led to a whole host of negative outcomes, everything from under-representation in certain jobs among the well-to-do and over-representation in less pleasant outcomes in regards to criminal justice, poverty and educational failure.

Carney’s success hinges on effective caucus management, but he has struggled so far, say some Liberal MPs

The current 169-member Liberal caucus is largely made up of seasoned MPs who have recently experienced political upheaval in ousting Justin Trudeau, and for Mark Carney to succeed as prime minister, he must ensure his MPs have direct and consistent access to him and are treated fairly in cabinet promotions, say Liberal MPs.

In interviews with The Hill Times, Liberal MPs, who did not want to be identified, pointed out that in 2015, Trudeau inherited an almost brand new caucus, with most members newly elected and grateful to be in the House. Almost no one raised any concerns about not getting promotions to cabinet, and Trudeau effectively shaped their understanding of parliamentary conduct. Having spent more than a decade in Parliament, members from the class of 2015 and earlier now see themselves as potential cabinet ministers—a dynamic not uncommon in long-governing parties, which makes it a challenge to manage the caucus effectively.

This Is What an Intifada Looks Like

The American anti-Israel movement has radicalized.

Since November 2023—“fairly regularly, sometimes weekly”—a group of Boulder, Colorado, residents have held marches advocating for the release of Hamas’s hostages in Gaza. The regularity of these marches likely contributed to Sunday’s targeted attack, in which a man named Mohamed Soliman allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at the marchers while yelling “end Zionists” and “Palestine is free.” The FBI is investigating the incident as an “act of terror;” the Department of Homeland Security has claimed Soliman was an illegally resident Egyptian national.

Tapper and Thompson Continue Dangerous Cover-Up

Their book is nothing more than a ‘partial hangout’ written to disguise media lies about Biden’s decline.

Now that Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson have published Original Sin, which confirms what most Americans already knew — that former President Joe Biden was cognitively unfit to carry out the duties of his office — the corporate media are attempting to deflect attention from their complicity in a dangerous cover up. The “original sin,” according to Tapper and Thompson, was Biden’s decision to run for reelection in 2024 and the dishonesty of his aides. A far more egregious sin, however, was the cover-up of Biden’s decline by countless journalists who refused to report the truth.

HUNTER: U.S. DOJ cleans house, booting killers and a ‘Canadian’ terrorist

The press release from the U.S. Department of Justice was terse. It was not self-congratulatory.

For a Canadian bombarded with daily examples of the insanity of our own justice and immigration systems, it was refreshing, even inspiring.

On second thought, it was depressing to think how staggeringly high the threshold is in Canada to boot arch-criminals, terrorists and their sympathizers.

CHARLEBOIS: Why Canada’s drinking age patchwork is holding us back

The 60’s were a great time to be a kid.

As the federal government deals with yet another round of meetings with Canada’s premiers, discussions will rightfully focus on big-picture economic priorities: Productivity, interprovincial trade, and making our federation work better. But there’s one small, nagging issue that’s long overdue for a grown-up conversation — our patchwork of legal drinking ages.

Russia may attack Nato in next four years, German defence chief warns

Members of the Western alliance Nato need to prepare for a possible attack from Russia within the next four years, according to Germany’s chief of defence.

General Carsten Breuer told the BBC that Russia was producing hundreds of tanks a year, many of which could be used for an attack on Nato Baltic state members by 2029 or even earlier.

He also insisted that Nato, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, remains unified over the war in Ukraine, despite differences of opinion expressed recently by both Hungary and Slovakia.

First Nations threaten highway blockages over Ford government’s Bill 5

Indian Money Dance

The leader of an Ontario First Nation is warning the Ford government it could face lawsuits, protests and disruptions of major Toronto-area highways if the province passes the controversial Bill 5 into law.

The legislation, which critics say gives the premier and his cabinet extraordinary powers to create “no law zones” across Ontario, is set to be fast-tracked this week before MPPs break for the summer.

Huckabee Demands NYT, CNN, AP Retract Fake News Stories on Gaza Aid Deaths

U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee demanded Monday that the New York Times, CNN, and the Associated Press, among others, retract false reporting that Israeli soldiers killed Palestinian civilians at an American aid site in Gaza.

Huckabee linked the fake news published by these outlets directly to the antisemitic terror attack Sunday in Boulder, Colorado, where an illegal alien shouting pro-Palestinian slogans set Jewish protesters on fire.

Defence closes. Four of five players decline to testify at Hockey Canada sex assault trial

The complainant in the Hockey Canada sexual assault case “was actually quite upset” when a London, Ont., police detective broke the news to her in 2022 that the force was taking a second look at its initial investigation that had led to no criminal charges, the detective testified Monday as the high-profile trial wrapped up.

“I felt pretty bad because it felt like … I got the sense that I was opening up some wounds that she was trying to close,” said Det. Lyndsey Ryan, who was tasked in the summer of 2022 with leading the reopened probe.

“I think it was a bit overwhelming. She wasn’t expecting this.”
