CCP’s Harassment and Intimidation of Canadians a ‘Serious Problem’: Think Tank Study

Canada has a “serious problem” when it comes to foreign interference by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), according to a new study that investigated the regime’s harassment and intimidation of Chinese-Canadians on Canadian soil.

The research, based on a survey conducted by think tank SecondStreet.org, highlighted that most respondents believed they were targeted for their beliefs—specifically, whether they practised the Falun Gong spiritual faith or Christianity, expressed support for Hong Kong, or simply spoke out in favour of democracy.

The Harris Campaign’s Cheap New Debate Gambit Reveals Its Fears

In Harris’s desperate effort not to answer any questions, her best bet is to tempt Trump with a mic that’s always hot.

‘Debates don’t matter,” goes the old wisdom, “until they do.” Politico offers but one example of that truism, in advance of the first 2020 debate. And note the qualifier employed: “Debates don’t matter . . . unless someone faceplants.” Of course, back then, the first debate may well have mattered significantly: Donald Trump didn’t exactly faceplant, but — because he was suffering from an as-yet-undisclosed bout of Covid himself, one that put Chris Christie, his unlucky debate-prep partner, in the hospital and nearly in his grave — gave a disastrously interrupting, impatient performance that night.

It’s Jaw-Dropping How Much Sex Ed Has Changed In 50 Years

Sex education was simpler when I was a girl. There were only two sexes back then, and the word gender had not yet leaped from the declension of nouns to an identity.

Sr. Edmund Marie, the biology teacher in the girls’ department of our parish high school, visited the grammar school every year. She spent a day talking to us about plant biology and brought a black portfolio of oversized botanical posters. One was a standard line drawing for classroom use, the rudimentary kind that appears in countless textbooks.

The results are in: How much will wind energy cost this one state’s consumers?

On Friday, The Wall Street Journal published an article by Gordon Hughes that (somewhat rhetorically) asked this titular question: “Why Is New York Paying So Much for Wind Power?”

Hughes called the reader’s attention to the revelation that the state of New York had entered into a contract with two wind energy companies, an agreement that will quadruple the cost of energy for the consumer—and that’s including three billion in taxpayer dollars to offset the final price per megawatt-hour—which is “far above the break-even cost of generating electricity.”

We need more anger about Islamist terrorism, not less

After Solingen, it’s time for a fightback against both the Islamo-fascists and our complacent elites.

The wisdom of the late Norm Macdonald has rarely felt so prescient. ‘What terrifies me’, the Canadian comic once tweeted, ‘is if ISIS were to detonate a nuclear device and kill 50million Americans. Imagine the backlash against peaceful Muslims.’ It was a perfectly aimed jab at those who fear the public reaction to terrorism more than terrorism itself. At those leftish talking heads and phoney liberals who see people in Manchester, Paris or Brussels being blown limb from limb by radical Islamists and instantly think: ‘Oh no, the Islamophobia is going to be terrible.’ These cowards and fainthearts have been out in force once more following the ISIS knife atrocity in Solingen.

A Foundation Has Been Bribing Cities to Free Criminals

Something interesting is going on in San Francisco where DA Brooke Jenkins, a black woman who ousted the former pro-crime Chesa Boudin and promised to actually enforce the law, is taking on the MacArthur Foundation.

While we often call pro-crime DAs “Soros DAs” and indeed the Nazi collaborating radical billionaire did indeed play a major role in building a pro-crime network of DAs who ignore the law, there are a variety of major foundations who destroyed public safety in America.

Sharia is taking over France

The country of secularism, of the Enlightenment, of Voltaire and of equality is becoming a little more compatible with sharia every day.

In France, sharia is taking over and the bienpensants don’t care

After months of pressure and the latest altercation in his bakery in Vénissieux (Lyon), Alexandre Dallery announced on Friday that the boulangerie would stop selling pork products.

Le Parisien tells us that one of Dallery’s sales assistants directed two customers towards a bacon quiche. Several minutes later, the two men returned “furiously” and “violently” to the boulangerie after discovering the presence of pork in their meal. To avoid further mistakes, the owner of the bakery therefore decided to continue his business without the ham. In a comment posted on Facebook, Dallery spoke of “several pressures over several months to make it halal”. “They wanted to burn everything, break everything”, Dallery wrote. “To calm things down, we no longer sell ham. Otherwise they’ll burn everything”.

“White Fragility B*tch” Robin DiAngelo Plagiarized Minority Scholars, Complaint Alleges

Robin DiAngelo, the best-selling author of White Fragility, is a big believer in citing minorities.

In an “accountability” statement on her website, which makes repeated reference to her Ph.D., DiAngelo, 67, tells “fellow white people” that they should “always cite and give credit to the work of BIPOC people who have informed your thinking.”

The Escalation of Anarcho-Tyranny: Starmer’s Britain

Under our woke moral order, one can easily predict when agents of the regime will behave like anarchists and when they will behave like tyrants.

In 2020, the Left was flirting with the abolition of police and prisons. Today, they pose as the champions of both these things, despite their very recent status as irredeemable hotbeds of systemic racism. It is mightily impressive what singling out the white working classes can do for an institution’s reputation—with the elites, if not with the people.

Red Star: The best solution to the affordability crisis? Tax the rich

The top one per cent of Canadians pay only 23.6 per cent of their income in taxes, enjoying the lowest tax burden of all of us. Strangely, the anti-tax voices that have come running to defend the wallets of the middle class in recent months have failed to mention this fact.

In this time of rising living costs, Canadians are feeling the affordability pinch. Some powerful voices are quickly stepping up to say taxes are to blame, decrying the government’s supposed overreach into our pockets. But the real conversation we should be having is how Canada’s tax burden is distributed, and whether everyone is paying their fair share.

Trudeau insists he still has what Canadians want, despite polling numbers

HALIFAX – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is rejecting the suggestion that the Liberals could benefit from a change at the top after the Democratic party saw a bump in the polls following U.S. President Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race last month.

Trudeau is in Halifax for a three-day cabinet retreat preparing for the upcoming fall sitting of Parliament, and the time for him to woo voters is becoming increasingly narrow.
