The review below of what is happening to free speech and Western culture in England may be a preview of what is going to happen in Canada. Perhaps Canadians should leave while they still can.
Something has gone awry in Great Britain. White indigenous people are now evil. They are racist. In Northern Ireland Minister for Justice Naomi Long said the violence and racist attacks in recent days were “not reflective” of the people of Northern Ireland.
“We need to call it for what it is. It is racism, it is Islamophobia, it is xenophobia. “If we’re going to deal with it, we need to name it for what it is, and we need to challenge it.″
Seems that British people of no colour are called out as racists when they march proudly with the British flag. Patriotism to ones’ heritage is now called out as racism. It isn’t about racism or religion. It is about CULTURE and acculturation.
This is how to decolonize a classroom. Everyone gets an A and there is no homework.

Trump is a lot closer than he appears in the mirror.
Since Vice President Kamala Harris was installed at the top of the Democratic presidential ticket, the corporate media have been at pains to portray her modest lead in the national polls as a shift of momentum in the presidential race. Last week, for example, Politico insisted, “Kamala Harris stole Donald Trump’s Republican convention bounce.” If this was meant to reassure nervous Democrats that simply dumping Biden and rebranding Harris is enough to defeat former President Trump, it’s cold comfort indeed. She got through her party’s “joyful” convention with the aid of her trusty teleprompter, but her national and swing state polls are underwhelming.
Can you tell the difference between an extreme misogynist and a moderate misogynist? Hating women has always seemed, to me anyway, a rather extreme position on its own. The label ‘extreme misogynist’ is surely repetitive. A moderate misogynist is an oxymoron.
But then the Home Office announced this week that ‘extreme misogyny’ could be added to the list of ideologies the government monitors to tackle terrorism. I’ve been racking my brain, trying to figure out how the police would tell the extremists from the moderates. Does the extreme misogynist hold women in contempt all week long, while the moderate reserves his disdain for weekends? Does a mild misogynist simply begrudge us having the right to vote, rather than campaign to take it away?
When someone finds it necessary to repeatedly declare that he’s not an antisemite, he’s probably an antisemite.
When someone finds it necessary to repeatedly declare that his endless loathing for the state of Israel isn’t antisemitic, he’s probably an antisemite.
Sick of this creep.

On August 23, China’s foreign ministry said that the country had taken “countermeasures” against two Philippine military aircraft near Subi Reef in the South China Sea.
Four days earlier, Chinese Coast Guard vessels, without justification, rammed two Philippine boats near Sabina Shoal as they tried to resupply forces stationed at Flat and Nanshan Islands.

In the five years after Ontario began opening so-called “safe” injection sites, deaths from opioid overdoses more than doubled. Crime in the areas around these sites is up considerably, be it violent crimes like assault and murder or simple theft.
Max Kennedy, the brother of Robert F Kennedy Jr, has implored the public to ignore his sibling’s decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential election and endorse Donald Trump’s campaign to return to the White House.
In an op-ed for the Los Angeles Times, Max Kennedy said “Trump was exactly the kind of arrogant, entitled bully” that his father, former US senator and attorney general Robert F Kennedy, stood against before he was assassinated in 1968 as he pursued the Democratic presidential nomination.
Max Kennedy predicted his father would have admired the Democratic nominee for November’s election, Vice-President Kamala Harris, because she was a former prosecutor as well.
As a long-retired school administrator, over the years I observed that most parents shared one objective: to make sure their children had the best chance for a meaningful life. Perhaps that meant focusing on certain math courses that were prerequisites for other programs. Often it meant ensuring a level of French proficiency that would, they expected, afford their child a level playing field. Parents would camp out in wintery conditions to enrol their youngsters in a highly regarded French immersion school.
Last week in this space the focus was on Time magazine’s glorification of now Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris.
The point was that the then-current cover of Time – an illustration of Harris that, as noted, presented her as “a cross somewhere between Miss America and a religious icon” – was in reality an illustration of just how the “mainstream media” was thoroughly in the tank for Democrats and the Left in general, and, this election year, Harris in particular.
Facing months of devastating poll numbers, Canada’s embattled prime minister tossed cold water on those hoping for a Joe Biden-esque departure.
The Trump campaign on Monday opposed the Harris campaign’s sudden attempt to change the September 10 debate rules on ABC News from muted to unmuted microphones.
Harris wants an unmuted mic to save her from word salads, one person familiar with Harris’s negotiations told Politico Playbook. More is here on Harris’s word salads.
The Ontario government’s recent ban on supervised drug consumption sites near schools and child care centres is the latest part of a countrywide step back from the national harm reduction approach to drug addiction.
The ideology of harm reduction, which advocates for a so-called safer supply of opioids and the decriminalization of hard drugs, held a dominant position in Canadian addiction policy as recently as last year.
