Pierre Poilievre ramps up his attacks on China Boy Carney — with a little help from Stephen Harper

OTTAWA — The federal Conservatives ramped up sharp partisan attacks this week on Liberal Leader Mark Carney’s character and credibility, with former prime minister Stephen Harper stepping into the spotlight to publicly question the Liberals’ central campaign claim that Carney is the person to lead in a crisis.

On Day 17 of the federal election campaign, the over-large presence of Donald Trump and tariffs prompted a whole new level of heated rhetoric as polls continued to show Carney is the choice of most voters as best able to handle Trump.

Is Russia recruiting migrants to carry out attacks on European soil? Germany may have uncovered a ‘smoking gun’

What began as an isolated act of terror may now reveal a far-reaching plan to fracture Europe’s political landscape and tilt it toward chaos

In May last year, a 25-year-old Afghan asylum seeker called Sulaiman Ataee walked onto a German market square, drew a hunting knife, and plunged it into the far-Right activist Michael Stürzenberger.

In the 25 seconds of mayhem that followed in Mannheim, one policeman was fatally stabbed in the neck and six people who tried to intervene suffered knife wounds. Mr Stürzenberger survived – just.

Ataee was shot, arrested and charged with murder. His trial began in February

Rise in asylum seekers to Canada as migrants’ protected status set to expire in U.S.

MONTREAL — Canadian border officials say there has been a steady rise in the number of people seeking asylum at a border crossing south of Montreal.

The rise in would-be refugees at the St-Bernard-de-Lacolle crossing comes as the temporary status of hundreds of thousands of migrants in the United States is set to expire over the next weeks and months.

Data from Canada Border Services Agency shows the number of asylum claims at the St-Bernard-de-Lacolle point of entry has increased since the start of the year, with 1,356 applications in March and 557 claims as of Saturday for April.

Russian victory or massacre? What really happened in the Kursk pipeline

For two days, oxygen-starved Russian troops crawled nine miles through a pitch-black underground pipeline, creeping behind enemy lines and springing a surprise attack that wiped out the enemy in a blaze of bullets.

The Ukrainian soldiers had no idea that Operation Potok was coming.

Hundreds of men streamed out of the pipeline, storming Ukrainian positions north of Sudzha, pushing them back out of Russia in a triumphant counter-offensive to save the motherland.

‘Shawn Fain is wrong’: Canadian Labour Congress blasts UAW leader on tariffs

The head of Canada’s largest labour organization on Monday was blunt in her assessment of a powerful union leader south of the border over his support of U.S. President Donald Trump’s auto tariffs.

Bea Bruske, president of the Canadian Labour Congress, said United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain is “100 per cent” wrong in his support of Trump’s 25 per cent levies on auto imports.

Trump is delivering what he promised and yes it is a shame good people will be hurt. Compare that with Carney who will ensure Canada’s energy sector is destroyed.

Trump administration weighs drone strikes on Mexican cartels

The Trump administration is considering launching drone strikes on drug cartels in Mexico as part of an ambitious effort to combat criminal gangs trafficking narcotics across the southern border, according to six current and former U.S. military, law enforcement and intelligence officials with knowledge of the matter.

Discussions among White House, Defense Department and intelligence officials, which are still at an early stage, have included possible drone strikes against cartel figures and their logistical networks in Mexico with the cooperation of Mexico’s government, the sources said.

GUNTER: Mark Carney shows Liberal arrogance with comments on Danielle Smith

Did Liberal Leader Mark Carney hit the trifecta?

On Sunday in Victoria, at just his second campaign rally in the West in two full weeks of electioneering, Carney made sneering remarks about Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. Then he displayed the typical smugness of central Canadian elitists insinuating that they and only they have the intelligence and sophistication to see the way forward for all Canadians.

The Enemy Within: France’s Growing Terrorist Threat

In 70% of the foiled attacks, the would-be perpetrator was under the age of 21.

A terrorist attack was foiled earlier this week in northern France, involving a 19-year-old man who claimed to be acting on behalf of Daesh—the Islamic State. No fewer than six attacks have been foiled in recent months. For the minister of the interior, the real danger today is no longer an external attack but the actions of a fringe of radicalised French youth.

Poilievre promises to raise $1B by cracking down on offshore tax havens … Brookfield hardest hit

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to crack down on the use of offshore tax havens and recover as much as $1 billion a year in lost revenues.

In a video posted on X, Poilievre said the money recovered through the initiative will be used to help pay for his plan to introduce a $14-billion income tax cut by reducing the rate in the lowest tax bracket from 15 per cent to 12.75 per cent.

“You can’t avoid your taxes, global elites should not be able to either, and that is why I will end the Liberal two-tier tax system,” Poilievre said during a campaign stop in Edmonton on Tuesday.

Percentage of Albertans Wanting to Secede Nearly Matches Quebec’s: Poll

One in four Albertans would vote “yes” in a referendum on leaving Canada, just 3 percentage points behind Quebecers’ support for separation, a new poll suggests.

A quarter of Albertans would support separation from Canada, nearly matching the 28 percent of Quebec residents who would favour their province becoming its own country, according to a survey by the Angus Reid institute published on April 6. The desire for separation in both provinces would rise to 30 percent if the Liberals were to form the next government, according to the poll.

If Congress Doesn’t Step In, Rogue Judges Will Trans The Military


Former Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer recently admitted that he is responsible for confirming 235 “progressive” judges who are “ruling against Trump time after time.” Activist judges are Schumer’s Plan B.

Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution empowers Congress to make policy for the military. But as things stand now, unelected, unaccountable federal judges are overruling President Donald Trump’s executive orders and arrogating to themselves the power to run the armed forces.

With Trudeau gone, it’s like ‘night and day’ in a former Toronto Liberal fortress that turned Tory blue

TORONTO — Seated in a restaurant around the corner from Toronto’s bustling Yonge Street on a drizzling afternoon, Leslie Church says her campaign couldn’t feel more different than the one she lost nine months ago.

“Night and day,” she says. “It is night and day.”

Church was the Liberals’ candidate when the party saw its stronghold of Toronto—St.Paul’s fall to the Conservatives after having held it for more than 30 years, which made the defeat no ordinary loss.

It was said the Jewish vote was central to flipping the riding Conservative. I wonder if they have all got amnesia.
