The House of Commons by a 210-117 vote have endorsed a recommendation to decriminalize possession of heroin, cocaine and all other illegal drugs nationwide, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
The result came with little comment during a flurry of Commons votes on committee reports on Friday.
Junkies and dealers vote too ya know.

There are children playing in Allan Gardens — a pleasant sight that had long disappeared from view.
Moms and nannies pushing prams without fear of a looming menace or having to sidestep needles underfoot. No annoying music assaults the eardrums from boomboxes. Nobody cooking meth or blatantly consuming a host of street drugs.
Dogs are being walked — and not the curs kept as pets by homeless people who may not have had a single other source of companionship in their hardscrabble lives.
The homeless are shifted elsewhere because they are a political asset to the likes of Chow.
They’ll crow about this success today and be demanding more funding a week later.
Rinse and repeat.
Arresting Benjamin Netanyahu would be unlawful, the shadow attorney general and two of Britain’s leading lawyers have warned.
Lord Wolfson KC, the shadow attorney general, has written to his Government counterpart, Lord Hermer KC, saying the UK would be in breach of international law if the Government sought to enact the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) arrest warrant for the Israeli leader if he came to the UK.
His view that UK laws give the Israeli prime minister immunity from being arrested was backed by Prof Richard Ekins, a professor of law and constitutional government at Oxford University, and Lord Verdirame KC, a specialist in public international law.
The reason Joseph Broussard dit Beausoleil (1702-65) wasn’t commemorated with a Parks Canada plaque until last week might have something to do with his history of raiding and scalping British colonists.
Beausoleil, an Acadian born into the dying days of Acadia, didn’t take too kindly to British rule. The Brits took much of the territory in 1713, snapping up New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in the resolution of the War of the Spanish Succession. So, in adult life, Beausoleil did what he could to terrorize the new owners of the land.
A 22-year-old former British Army soldier fighting with Ukrainian troops has been captured by Russian forces in the war-torn Kursk region, according to reports.
A young man in military fatigues speaking with an English accent identified himself as James Scott Rhys Anderson in a video circulating in Russian media on Sunday.
Anderson, who appears to have his hands tied, claimed that he served four years as a signalman in the British army before he joined the International Legion of Ukraine to repel the Russian invasion.
Immigration Minister Marc Miller introduced new regulations this week allowing foreign students to work full-time during academic breaks, a move his department admits could increase competition for Canadian workers, particularly young people seeking entry-level or summer jobs.
“This may result in increased competition for Canadian workers,” the Department of Immigration stated in a Regulatory Impact Analysis Statement.
In October, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) sent a chartered flight carrying Indian nationals back home, marking a growing trend in deportations to India.
This was no ordinary flight – it was one of multiple large-scale “removal flights” carried out this year, each typically carrying more than 100 passengers. The flights were returning groups of Indian migrants who “did not establish a legal basis to remain in the US”.
According to US officials, the latest flight carrying adult men and women was routed to Punjab, close to many deportees’ places of origin. No precise breakdown of hometowns was provided.
New Democrat MP Charlie Angus decided he had enough.
“I have tried three times to get off X because it is a dismal, toxic, hole of disinformation,” said Angus, who used to regularly post to his 47,200 followers on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“After seeing what went down with the Trump election, the belligerent role of Elon Musk in undermining democracy, there is no way that I can be part of that.”
They want to be free of scrutiny.

Northvolt was one of the world’s most valuable battery startups. Now it has run out of charge.
Over the past week, the Swedish company filed for bankruptcy in the U.S. and said its co-founder was stepping down as chief executive, after a turbulent year of production problems and job cuts.
The move marks a stark change in fortunes for a company that was once vaunted as Europe’s best hope for competing with China’s dominant battery makers. Northvolt’s collapse also underscores the difficulty Western companies face in establishing a foothold in the industry.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reportedly called President-elect Donald Trump on Monday night, just hours after Trump threatened to enact tariffs against Canada for border security issues.
“Shortly after Trump’s post, Trudeau contacted Trump and the two leaders spoke by phone,” said Bloomberg News reporter Brian Platt.

Three people were arrested after pro-Palestinian, anti-NATO protesters smashed windows, clashed with police officers, and set vehicles ablaze on Friday evening.
The protest coincided with the arrival of approximately 300 delegates from NATO member states and partner countries attending a high-level summit, running from Nov. 22 to 25 in Montreal, focused on Ukraine, climate change, and the alliance’s future. The protest also came as the second day of the wave of student-wide pro-Palestinian protests across Montreal.
