Poilievre suggests Trudeau is too weak to engage with Trump, Ford won’t go there

While federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has taken aim at Prime Minister Justin Trudeau this week — calling him too “weak” to engage with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump — Ontario Premier Doug Ford declined to echo the characterization in an exclusive Canadian broadcast interview set to air this Sunday on CTV’s Question Period.

“I’m not going to get involved in the federal politics between Mr. Poilievre and the prime minister,” Ford told host Vassy Kapelos. “They can jump in the ring, battle it out and see who wins.”

Why Are Hollywood Has-Beens Trashing the American People As Ignorant?

One of the ways that leftist entertainers reinforce the cartoon of their intolerance of their audience is my going to European film festivals and seeking sympathy abroad over what a mountain of morons they have to live with in America. This was guaranteed to happen after all of their rantings and ravings about Donald Trump fell on deaf ears.

But who could possibly be the worst abuser of the public than Alec Baldwin, who shot a woman dead and is at the rock bottom of his appeal as a movie star? Shooter McBaldwin showed up at the Turin Film Festival in Italy to say at least half of America are “very uninformed about reality.”

Trudeau’s Replacement Hookers Say He’s Gone Limp On Protection

For migrant women in the sex industry, Canada’s anti-human-trafficking strategies are a pipeline to harm

The Canadian federal government’s five-year strategy to combat human trafficking expires this year, and Ontario’s strategy will expire in 2025. Both the federal Liberals and Ontario Conservatives claim that their governments have made progress in addressing human trafficking. But we are advocates who have worked with migrants in the sex industry for two decades, and the stories they continue to tell us are not of being rescued from human traffickers by the police. Instead, they recount the terror of being targeted by anti-trafficking “rescue raids” – being surveilled, interrogated and strip-searched; having their wages, phones and passports seized by the police; and being placed in jail cells or immigration detention centres before being deported.

Censorship Victim Warns MAGA: Don’t Trust Zuckerberg

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is kissing up to President-elect Donald Trump, trying to worm his way into the MAGA sphere and pretend he is enthusiastic for reform. But as a victim of devastating Facebook censorship warned, Zuckerberg is not to be trusted, especially since he has yet to apologize to and restore the data for multiple users whose lives were transformed by online censorship.

Are the drones lighting up US bases in England something sinister?

Airspace around US airbases in Norfolk and Suffolk has been under scrutiny following multiple recent drone incursions. Those responsible for the aircraft have yet to be found and nearby residents have questioned how and why the incidents have been allowed to happen.

Drone incursions were initially reported at three US airbases – RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, and RAF Feltwell in Norfolk – between 20 and 22 November, and the aircraft has since reappeared.

In the village of Beck Row, Suffolk, which is situated next to RAF Mildenhall, residents reported brightly lit aerial vehicles hovering above their houses and over the base itself.

The drip drip drip of disclosure? Or just interesting US Tech being field tested?

Everyone agrees Canada should spend more on defence. How do we pay for it?

If there’s one thing Canada’s premiers have always agreed on, it’s that the federal government needs to respect provincial jurisdiction.

If there’s a second thing they now agree on, it’s that (notwithstanding their belief that governments should mind their own business) the federal government should spend substantially more on national defence — not least because doing so might appease the incoming president of the United States.

“He wants us to meet our 2 per cent NATO spending commitment,” Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said in an interview with the CBC’s Power & Politics on Tuesday, referring to Donald Trump.
