Canadian officialdom just can’t get past the idea that they and they alone have been gifted with the intelligence and judgment to determine what the public should hear or see on the Internet.

British Columbia hospital distributing free crack pipes, snorting kits from vending machine
A British Columbia hospital now features a vending machine distributing free crack pipes and “safe” snorting kits.
In an August 26 video, Conservative Party of British Columbia candidate Gwen O’Mahony exposed that the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, which operates in the district in which she is running, is distributing free crack pipes and snorting kits at a vending machine outside its emergency room.
Germany: A Cold Wind
Germany’s manufacturing sector, the backbone of its economy, has been struggling of late. It is having to contend with slow domestic demand, and exports, a key element in its success, are running into headwinds. Manufacturing is an energy-intensive sector, and Germany’s high energy costs are hurting its competitiveness. These costs have been driven higher by the withdrawal of “cheap” Russian gas, by Angela Merkel’s decision to resume the country’s reckless abandonment of nuclear power (which is now complete) and by another project eagerly backed by Merkel, massive investments in renewables. Climate policy makers boast about green jobs (and there are some, although many more in China), but the statistic that matters will be the net jobs number. Is the energy “transition” creating more jobs than it is destroying?
Press tries to gaslight away illegal border crossers caught trying to board San Diego County children’s school buses
I knew it was coming.
The press is trying to gaslight the public into thinking that any concern about unvetted illegal border crossers attempting to board children’s school buses in San Diego’s back county is all in their heads and there’s “no cause for alarm.” Migrants wouldn’t dream of boarding a children’s school bus, see, because they’re all big on obeying gringo’s laws.
The Los Angeles Times’s report is pretty typical of this narrative
Brazil’s ban on X is a taste of things to come
X, the social-media giant owned by Elon Musk, has officially been banned in Brazil. Last night, X failed to meet a deadline set by a Supreme Court judge to block vast swathes of content and appoint a local legal representative for the company. It has now gone offline to its 22million Brazilian users – roughly one tenth of the national population.
Kamala’s Racist ‘White Devil’ Pastor
After the Biden coup, Kamala phoned Rev. Amos Brown to pray for her political campaign. Kamala, an “old timer” and “dues paying” member of Brown’s church had turned to one of the most hateful political figures in her old city to offer spiritual inspiration for her presidential bid.
Are we Jews only wanted in Israel? Sadly, it’s beginning to feel rather like it
When the culture wars started, I was frequently irritated and amazed by those who insisted it was all just Right-wing media provocation. It was blazingly obvious everywhere, from mandatory workplace unconscious bias training to increasingly illiberal student campaigns, to the deranged stunts carried out with increasing regularity by Greta Thunberg’s acolytes that it was anything but “just” that.
Even so, one could hide and take a break. One could go on a trip somewhere away from it all, leave London or student towns, turn off the news, change the subject.
Shootings Soar in One of North America’s Safest Cities. The Culprit: Tow-Truck Gangs
A turf war has fueled a 50% rise in Toronto shootings, mostly with guns smuggled from the U.S.
TORONTO—Towing cars has become a deadly business in Canada’s largest city.
Rival gangs control parts of the tow-truck industry here, using the heavy-duty vehicles to transport drugs, extort car-crash victims with high fees, and fake automobile accidents to defraud insurance. They once resolved their territorial differences with their fists, but now a wave of gun smuggling from the U.S. has turned their fights into a lethal blood sport.
This year through late August, Toronto shootings are up 50% compared with the same period last year and homicides are up 20%—a surge caused in part by “the tow-truck violence,” said Inspector Paul Krawczyk of the Toronto Police Service’s guns-and-gangs unit. In all, about one in seven of Toronto’s shootings and dischargings of firearms this year have been related to the towing industry, police said.
“It’s pretty brazen,” Krawczyk said.
Racism or brazen scam?
Groups of Travellers are behaving bizarrely in pubs while secretly recording themselves and then suing bar staff for thousands of pounds for refusing to serve them
Four Irish men walk into a bar. But this isn’t the first line of a joke. As hundreds of pub landlords are finding out, it can instead mark the start of a very modern nightmare.
Gary Sidwell is a case in point. He runs The Purley Arms, an old-school boozer in a working-class neighbourhood of South Croydon.
Here, his ordeal began on a Wednesday afternoon in October last year, when young, burly Brian Mongan visited the premises, accompanied by his brother Pete and their friends Paddy and Tom McDonagh.
Canada has it’s own “human rights and anti-racist” grifters.
Time for the Truth About Islamism and Its Useful Idiots
We might think that the problem is the terrorist murder by an Islamist migrant. The establishment thinks the real danger is that German voters are angry about it.
This summer’s events could hardly have shown us more clearly how Europe’s spineless, self-loathing attitude to the fight against Islamism here and abroad is putting democracy and Western civilisation at risk. Yet our leaders refuse to face the truth.
Until the recent announcement of their big reunion gigs, 1990s Britpop band Oasis only featured in the news whenever there was a terror attack in the UK; most notably after the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing in which an Islamic suicide bomber killed 22 people, including children, and injured a thousand more at an Ariana Grande concert in the band’s home city.
Poll shows Trudeau killed consensus on immigration
Canadians are fed up with the way the Trudeau Liberals are managing the immigration system, and they’ve lost faith in the PM’s ability to handle the file. A new poll for Postmedia by Leger, Canada’s most accurate pollster in the last election, lays out how the country is feeling.
How much longer can the Liberal-NDP deal last?
On Thursday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre made a great show — he even wrote a letter — of calling on NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh to walk away from the NDP’s supply-and-confidence agreement with the Liberal government.
Poilievre alleged that Singh was sticking with the deal so that he could become eligible for a parliamentary pension (Poilievre qualified for an MP pension in 2010, when he was 31 years old).

The incident occurred in 2019. In 2023 a jury found the assailant “Not Guilty”.
VICTORVILLE, Calif. (KABC) — A Victorville man accused of attempted murder and assault with a firearm on a peace officer has been found not guilty on both charges, despite cell phone video that showed a violent attack on a San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputy in 2019.
CBC’s The National shows hours of political conventions in the US, but only minutes of Canadian gatherings
Multiple political conventions have happened across North America in the last one-and-a-half years, and journalists have been busy covering them.
But while The National, CBC’s flagship program during the nightly news devoted loads of coverage to US conventions while mere minutes to Canadian ones.
I don’t watch their coverage because of CBC’S TDS and its knee-jerk anti-Americanism.
