Martin Scorsese gets backlash after endorsing ‘creatively freeing’ AI

Legendary film-maker Martin Scorsese has stepped into the fierce debate over the rise of artificial intelligence in Hollywood by endorsing an AI tool that he says has been “creatively freeing” in the pre-production process.

The Taxi Driver, Goodfellas and Wolf of Wall Street director has become an adviser to AI company Black Forest Labs, saying he wants to “push the bounds of creativity to create deeper and richer experiences for audiences”.

The company released a video of Scorsese using AI to instantly create images for storyboards, which show how key characters, locations and scenes should look.

AI is just a matter of time.

Canada confirms purchase of 26 HIMARS rocket launchers from U.S. government

A little over a month after the Pentagon revealed it had ordered a batch of M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) for several allied countries, including Canada, the Liberal government has now publicly acknowledged the purchase.

Defence Minister David McGuinty, in a statement on Tuesday, said 26 of the highly sought artillery systems will be acquired for the Canadian Army.

The $2.6-billion purchase is being made directly from the U.S. government and includes a preliminary operational stock of munitions, spare parts, training and support services.

Embarrassment of the Week: ‘Islamophobic’ Killer Is Named… Yeah, You Guessed It

A Muslim was murdered outside an Eid service in Minneapolis last week, and initially, it was a story made to order for the left’s victimhood industry. It even seemed to be a genuine example of “Islamophobia,” which is as rare in real life as Nancy Pelosi stock losses. The far left’s propaganda arm, also known as the mainstream media, swung into action, and leftist politicians chimed in with the requisite displays of outrage and sorrow.

Aaron Pete: Criminalizing residential school ‘denialism’ won’t help reconciliation

Canada should take residential schools seriously. That means taking both truth and reconciliation seriously. But the Senate’s work on criminalizing “residential school denialism” raises a difficult question: when a country faces a painful historical issue, should the criminal law become the instrument used to manage public discussion?

This is not an abstract issue for me. My grandmother attended St. Mary’s Indian Residential School. Many Indigenous people have horrible stories to tell about their experiences at that school and ones across Canada. I know some of them personally. I have heard their experiences. No amount of civil discourse will erase their lived experience or convince me that their pain is not real.

Councillor Lisa Robinson running for mayor of Pickering

Controversial Pickering councillor Lisa Robinson has announced she will run in the fall election for the mayor’s seat in the city east of Toronto.

“This campaign is not powered by insiders; it is powered by you, the people, and when ordinary people stand together, nothing is stronger,” Robinson said Sunday. “So, if you believe Pickering deserves honest leadership, if you believe taxpayers deserve respect, if you believe questions should never be punished then stand with me.”

Canada A Cricket Criminal: Cricket Canada suspended over allegations of India gang-linked corruption

Cricket’s international governing body has suspended Canada over what it described as “serious breaches of its membership obligations”, dealing the latest blow to an organization that critics say has become a “laughing stock” within the sport.

The suspension also comes amid growing concerns that one of Canada’s fastest-growing sports is being influenced by members of a notorious gang that operates with impunity from an Indian prison cell.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) finalized the suspension at a meeting in Ahmedabad, India, on Sunday amid mounting concerns about the governance of Canada’s national cricket body. The decision follows the freezing of Cricket Canada’s funding in May after allegations that the organization lacked adequate governance systems and had failed to file audited financial statements.

Trump outburst reflects Israel’s sinking popularity in American eyes

When details were leaked about the latest phone call between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu, the headlines focused on the wave of profanities from the US president.

“What the f— are you doing?” shouted Mr Trump in reference to the Israeli prime minister’s continued bombing of Lebanon. “You’re f—ing crazy. You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me.”

It is strong stuff, revealing genuine anger, but it is not the first time an American president has lost his patience with the aggressive brinkmanship of Mr Netanyahu.

Canada Needs A Real Reckoning For The ‘Mass Graves’ Hoax

Five years ago, a moral panic gripped Canada over a story that was obviously fake but that so perfectly confirmed the biases of anti-Catholic liberals, no one in the media or the political establishment bothered to check its veracity.

This of course was the hoax about the purported discovery of “mass graves” of indigenous children at what was once a government boarding school run by the Catholic Church. In late May 2021, the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation claimed that ground-penetrating radar had revealed hundreds of graves near the site of a former school in Kamloops, British Columbia. Tribal leaders cited the radar survey as proof that scores of indigenous Canadian children had been buried in unmarked mass graves at the school.

Henry Nowak’s death shows how brainwashed Britain’s police have become

I am crying. It is hard to write down the circumstances of the death of Henry Nowak without crying. Each time I think about how that young man met his end, I find myself consumed with sadness and a sense of raging disbelief. I admit I’ve become somewhat obsessed with the case because Henry’s murder, and the way Hampshire Police not only failed to help him but actively supported his killer to the point where they handcuffed the 18-year-old student and cruelly mocked him as he drowned in his own blood, is emblematic of how Britain has lost its way.

Does anyone in the GTA believe they can trust the police, I mean anyone who isn’t a government designated victim group enjoying two tiered policing and justice.

🇬🇧 Bodycam footage has been released showing Henry Nowak begging for an ambulance before being handcuffed behind his back.

Nowak: "I've been stabbed"

Officer: "I don't think you have mate"

South Korea boosts submarine bid with ‘Project Beaver’ hydrogen truck proposal

OTTAWA – The secret weapon in South Korea’s bid to win the lucrative submarine contract is code named “Project Beaver.”

Facing market conditions that blocked it from bringing an electric vehicle plant to Canada, the South Koreans drafted a plan to manufacture hydrogen long-haul freight trucks and build dozens of charging stations in Canada, beginning in 2030. The proposal was submitted as part of Hanwha’s bid for the submarines, and the details were kept under wraps until now.

“Project Beaver” will use the technology developed by Hyundai Motors and transplant it to Canada.

Fifa accused of using unofficial platforms to shift World Cup tickets

Fifa has been accused of working with unofficial resale platforms in an effort to sell tickets for low-demand World Cup games to avoid compensation claims from supporters who have already paid face value for matches.

Florian Ederer, an economics professor at Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, has identified how huge swathes of tickets have appeared on the resale site, SeatGeek, for Saudi Arabia’s group encounter with Cape Verde in Houston on June 27.

What a racket. I believe Toronto’s participation was a major reason Tory chose not to run.

In response to rising antisemitism in Canada, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a new racism advisory board on Monday and tasked it with assessing antisemitism in the country.

However, the board included among its members a politician who had previously rejected describing the Aqsa Martyrs Brigades as a terrorist organization, along with a lawyer who had represented anti-Israel encampment activists.
