Trudeau not ready to deal with border after Trump win

Are we ready for a return of Roxham Road but on an even bigger scale?

With the election of Donald Trump on Tuesday, there is no doubt that Canada’s beleaguered immigration system will likely face an influx of people heading north to claim they are refugees fleeing the United States.

I bet she shows up at Roxham.

David Polansky: Neither Canadian nor U.S. media understand America

The great novelist Saul Bellow once wrote: “I have developed a certain sympathy with Canada. It’s no easy thing to share a border with the USA. Canada’s chief entertainment — it has no choice — is to watch (from a gorgeous setting) what happens in our country. The disaster is that there is no other show.”

Unfortunately, despite countless hours of American media consumption, many Canadians understand their neighbor surprisingly poorly. The latest program to capture attention here, as elsewhere, was of course the U.S. general election, which Donald Trump won for a second time, much to the consternation of the pundit class in particular.

What do the Democrats need to reverse their fortunes? More bread-and-butter issues, less Oprah, say some

More bread and butter and less Oprah.

That’s what some strategists suggest is needed to fix a demoralized Democratic Party recovering from its electoral thumping on Tuesday night.

The finger pointing, recriminations and soul searching has begun in earnest in the wake of the U.S. election, which saw former Republican president Donald Trump soundly defeat current Democratic Vice-President Kamala Harris. Some Democrats are now calling for a reckoning within the party to determine what went wrong and what needs to change if they want to win future elections.

The CBC supported Trudeau based on his hair and selfies.

Donald Trump ‘could make huge UFO announcement within weeks’ after becoming president

Donald Trump’s second presidency could have a “seismic” effect when it comes to UFO disclosure – potentially revealing that the US government really has had contact with one or more extraterrestrial civilisations.

That’s according to Nick Pope who, for many years, was in charge of analysing UFO reports for the UK’s Ministry of Defence. Maverick billionaire Trump has seized an overwhelming victory in the 2024 US elections.

Here’s an alien!

The More Democrats Blame White Women, the More They’ll Vote Red

President Trump’s decisive victory Tuesday is forcing Democrats to explain their loss — and they’re turning to a familiar scapegoat: white women.

“Black voters came through for Kamala Harris. White women voters did not,” Joy Reid said on MSNBC. “If people vote more party line or more on race than on gender and protecting their gender, there’s really not that much more you can do.”

Seems to be an awful lot of White women lamenting Kamala’s loss.

Jamie Sarkonak: Canada still hasn’t learned from Winnipeg-Wuhan lab incident

Canadian public health authorities didn’t have to let the Wuhan Institute of Virology infiltrate and co-opt our country’s highest-security biolab. The warning signs had been there for years, and no one to our knowledge was holding a gun to the heads of the rubber-stampers who authorized a security-threat-flagged scientist’s shipment of live Ebola back to the motherland.

Islamism, the West and Human Rights

The Torah‘s ethical and moral laws, which became known to the world as Moses’ Ten Commandments, founded the West’s moral-ethical precepts on which its laws and judicial concepts such as justice and mercy are based. This development is reflected in the United States’ founding documents, as well as England’s Magna Carta of 1215, among others.

Under 16s will be banned from using social media, Australia announces

Children under 16 will be banned from using social media, Australia has said.

The country’s government said the new legislation was a world-leading attempt to deal with the dangers posed to young people by social networks.

Young people will be banned from using social networks. The companies themselves will be punished if they fail to ensure compliance, the government said.

“Social media is doing harm to our kids and I’m calling time on it,” Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese said.

Randall Denley: Ford got TMU to back off its race-based admissions. He should go further

Ontario Premier Doug Ford has scored a rare victory against the diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) doctrine that has infested Ontario universities.

Harvard Professors Cancel Classes as Students Feel Blue After Trump Win

At 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Sophia R. Mammucari ’28 woke up to a phone call from her mom — and the news that Donald Trump had been officially reelected.

“I still had some hope that she was going to win by a small amount. And then I woke up this morning, and that’s not what happened,” Mammucari said. “I probably cried for like an hour.”

On election night, students gathered at viewing parties hosted by friends, House tutors, the Institute of Politics, and the Harvard Republican Club to watch results roll in.
