US senator says Trump would laugh at Canada’s military spending as Canadian security forum begins

HALIFAX, Nova Scotia (AP) — A U.S. senator and supporter of Donald Trump said Friday the president-elect would laugh at Canada’s current military spending plans and said the country must do more.

Idaho Republican Sen. Jim Risch, ranking member of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, made the remarks at the start of the annual Halifax International Security Forum which attracts defense and security officials from Western democracies.

According to NATO figures, Canada was estimated to be spending 1.33% of GDP on its military budget in 2023, below the 2% target that NATO countries have set for themselves.

Thoughts?

Lots of good sounding stuff

But I doubt he could win an election if he openly campaigned on the 1st 3 of the following suggestions.

Empower the People of Iran Who Seek Change and Freedom

For decades, the brave people of Iran have arisen time and again, demanding a future free from oppression and authoritarian rule.

In recent years, Iranians have launched countless uprisings, each filled with hope and courage, only to be met with violent repression from the regime, and mainly indifference from abroad. Each wave of protests saw the regime’s security forces killing thousands of demonstrators, and imprisoning and torturing many more. These movements have shown the strength of the Iranian people’s resolve, but despite their cries for freedom, support from the West— usually merely vocal, about the ideals of democracy — has remained disappointingly muted.

Canada Fears Trump’s Mass Deportations Will Push Migrants North

At 5,525 miles, it is the longest border between any two countries. And that border — separating the United States and Canada — seems set to become a flashpoint between the close allies as President-elect Donald J. Trump prepares to take power.

The Canadian authorities fear that Mr. Trump’s promised mass deportations will push migrants north, while allies of the incoming president headed for key roles in his administration have raised alarms over a recent spike in undocumented migrants crossing from Canada to the United States.

Canadian officials are drawing up plans to add patrols, buy new vehicles and set up emergency reception facilities at the border between New York State and the province of Quebec to prepare for what they expect to be a surge in migrants because of Mr. Trump’s hard line on deportations.

German populists’ rise concerns EU Fat Cat

European Parliament President Roberta Metsola has voiced her anxiety about upcoming German elections and noted that a strong performance by populist parties could have significant consequences for Europe.

“What happens in Germany in the next four years has a major impact on the next four years of the European Union,” Metsola said in comments to the Funke Media Group, a major publisher of German newspapers.

The far-right Alternative for Germany and the recently founded left-wing, anti-migrant Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) are expected to achieve historic results in the elections, which are expected to take place on February 23, 2025.

LILLEY: Trudeau’s reckless refugee policy bankrupting Canada

The explosion in refugee claims in Canada over the past few years is costing Canadian taxpayers billions in mostly unseen costs.

On Friday, CBC broke the news of the federal health program for refugees now costing $411 million per year, but that is just the tip of the iceberg shocking as it is.

‘Morning Joe’ Ratings Drop Off a Cliff After Admitting They Met With Trump

In what we learned shortly thereafter was a selfish ploy to save their own behinds from possible scrutiny by a second Trump administration come January 20, the visit to Mar-a-Lago by MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-hosts and married couple Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski to see President-Elect Trump has contributed to the Swamp insider-y show’s ratings cratering like it was hit by one of those Mother of All Bombs (MOAB).

Indigo vandalism probe not influenced by Heather Reisman’s calls to Toronto’s top cop, Ontario judge rules — but chief should still explain it

An Ontario judge has found there is “no evidence” the Toronto police investigation into vandalism at an Indigo store was personally influenced by the company’s CEO — but said it’s reasonable to ask the police chief to explain why he twice spoke to Heather Reisman in the incident’s immediate aftermath.

In a decision released this week, Ontario judge Philip Downes shut down a sweeping legal application filed by lawyers for six of the so-called Indigo 11, which sought reams of additional police and financial records in order to mount a Charter challenge of their criminal charges.

Dirty pants on washing line recorded as non-crime hate incident by police

Police recorded a soiled pair of underwear hung on a washing line as a non-crime hate incident (NCHI), it has emerged.

In September 2021, a woman complained to North Wales Police that her neighbours had “hung a very large soiled pair of underpants on their washing line” for the past two months.

The force recorded it as a hate incident because the complainant had an Italian surname and the underwear was first put on the washing line in July that year. That month, Italy defeated England on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the final of football’s European Championships.

Far-right extremists have war plans, Windsor terrorism trial hears

A terrorism trial in Windsor to determine whether a local man sought to join and support a banned neo-Nazi group is shining a disturbing spotlight on far-right extremism in Canada.

Seth Bertrand is on trial before Superior Court Justice Maria Carroccia for “participation in the activity of a terrorist group.” Arrested in May 2022 following an RCMP-led undercover operation, Bertrand, now 21, is accused of seeking to join the Atomwaffen Division, listed in Canada and other countries as a “terror group” that has called for acts of violence.

Thousands of Islamists and their useful idiots are regularly taking over our streets in cities across Canada but yeah let’s make a Big Deal about that 1 guy in Windsor.

Jailbreak fears as prison maps are leaked on the dark web

Security officials are investigating a major leak of detailed prison layouts amid fears they will be exploited by criminals to smuggle drugs and weapons into prisons or used to aid an escape.

Emergency security measures have been deployed at multiple jails across England and Wales after the blueprints were shared on the dark web over the past fortnight. The schematic plans are also understood to include the location of sensors and cameras.

Prison officials believe that organised crime groups are behind the leak in order to help them deliver drugs into prison yards and cells via drones, or even to facilitate an escape.

Justin Trudeau’s shameless giveaway plan is incoherent, unnecessary and frankly embarrassing

Quick, someone tell Doug Ford: Now’s your chance to secure federal billions for a tunnel under Highway 401.

I kid, I kid. But it is hard not to escape the extremely Fordian air of the emergency policies announced on Thursday afternoon by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. A $250 one-time vote-buying cheque? Liberals were mocking the Ontario Premier’s plan for $200 handouts, right up until they decided to steal the idea. Instead of its euphemistic title of Working Canadians Rebate, they might as well have called it Our Last Shred of Dignity.

Multiple Migrants Arrested in ‘Sanctuary States’ for Attacking Women, Children, & Dogs

What do Massachusetts, New York, and Colorado have in common? According to the nonprofit Global Refuge, they’re all considered “sanctuary states.” Unfortunately, something else they all have in common is that some of the migrants they’re harboring have been arrested for attacking women, children, and dogs in recent weeks.
