Trudeau’s Canada: Homeless Torontonians are dying younger than the general population — and it’s getting worse

Losing the roof over your head could reduce your lifespan by 17 years.

That’s the takeaway from a new study published Friday, which warns that the gap between life expectancies for housed versus homeless Torontonians has only been growing, and is especially pronounced for younger generations.

It’s a gap that persists even after accounting for the outsized toll of substance use and other mental health-related challenges within the city’s homeless population, said researcher Lucie Richard with Unity Health’s MAP Centre for Urban Health Solutions.

Musk’s criticism of our propaganda ‘dangerous’ says Two-Tier Keir

The prime minister has said Elon Musk’s criticism of the policing at a disturbance in Birmingham this week was “dangerous”.

The owner of X (formerly Twitter) claimed the force was guilty of “two-tier policing”.

Musk reacted to a video showing crowds of mainly Muslim men outside a Yardley pub where disorder took place on Monday, and tagged Sir Keir Starmer in a post questioning why all communities “weren’t protected” in Britain.

On a visit to Solihull on Thursday, the prime minister said talk of two-tier policing was wrong and dangerous, because it exposed police to “more danger”.

Hunter Biden allegedly paid in Romanian ‘influence’ plot

US prosecutors in Hunter Biden’s tax evasion case have accused him of accepting money from a Romanian oligarch who sought to “influence US government agencies”.

The accusation is part of a larger case against the president’s son, who is charged with evading $1.4m (£1.1m) in taxes between 2016 and 2019 while spending millions on luxury cars, drugs and escorts.

Republicans have long accused Hunter Biden, 54, of “influence peddling”, although Congressional probes have yet to uncover any wrongdoing.

Chavez Fangirl Very Angry At Fraser Institute

Who wants you to believe taxes have risen 2000 per cent? Would-be Prime Minister Pierre Poilievre for a start

If we end up with Pierre Poilievre as prime minister, it will be partly because of all the groundwork done by right-wing think tanks in distorting the public debate over taxes.

Most notably, the Fraser Institute, generously funded by wealthy interests, has been using its ample resources for decades to turn Canadians into tax-haters, to disconnect taxes in the public’s mind from all the benefits, services, programs and infrastructure that taxes provide.

Key to promoting this anti-tax agenda has been grossly exaggerating the actual tax burden on Canadians.

Huge Fire Sparked by a Mercedes-Benz EV Adds to Safety Concerns Dogging Industry

SEOUL—It took just seconds for an underground South Korean residential parking lot to be engulfed in flames. The culprit: a Mercedes-Benz EQE electric vehicle that hadn’t been charging.

The blaze incinerated dozens of cars nearby, scorched another 100 vehicles and forced hundreds of residents to emergency shelters as the buildings above the parking lot lost power and electricity. Nobody died, but the fire took eight hours to extinguish.

The blaze dominated national news in South Korea. Some organizations are pushing for EVs to be parked outdoors, residents are protesting and lawmakers are proposing new safety measures.

‘Humanitarian crisis’: Ontario cities beg province to create new ministry for homelessness

The leaders of Ontario’s largest cities are calling on the provincial government to appoint a cabinet minister to manage a provincewide response to a growing trend of homelessness and a number of encampments they say have reached crisis levels.

Launching a new campaign at Queen’s Park on Thursday, Ontario’s Big City Mayors said local governments were at a breaking point trying to tackle homelessness, opioid addiction and a series of tent encampments that have appeared and stayed in the heart of the province’s towns and cities.

Police assess ‘all intelligence’ before Taylor Swift’s London shows

British police are assessing intelligence concerning Taylor Swift concerts in London after her shows in Austria were cancelled because of an alleged Islamist terror plot.

A 19-year-old man and two younger teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of planning a suicide bombing at one of the singer’s three nights in Vienna. Police found Islamic State propaganda and bomb-making equipment during a house search. They are not looking for anyone else.

No shortage of suspects in Britain.

PoCo mayor calls on authorities to ‘take action’ against local imam who called for annihilation of Jews

Port Coquitlam mayor Brad West has called on authorities to investigate a local imam who called for the annihilation of Jews and supporters of Israel.

He condemned the “vile hatred” espoused by Masjid Alhidaya’s Adnan Abyat, saying in no uncertain terms that such an ideology was not welcome in his community.

Personally I do not think anything will happen to the irritating Imam.

How a ‘Southport Wake Up’ Telegram post sparked fears of far-Right rallies

Not long after police had taken off their riot gear and finished their shifts after a weekend of violence, in the early hours of Monday morning, anonymous members of the far-Right were already posting a hit list of new targets.

At 1.59am, subscribers to a Telegram group named Southport Wake Up created by members of the far-Right received a message flashing up on their phone with 11 fire emojis followed by the words “Wednesday night lads” in capitals.

“They won’t stop coming until you tell them,” it read. “No more immigration […] 8pm/mask up /spread this as far and wide as you can.”

Mobile-home park residents on P.E.I. wonder how nationwide sale will affect them

Residents of six mobile-home parks on P.E.I. are worried about how a large buyout of properties across the country will impact them — and a U.S. watchdog group says the change in ownership could mean higher fees.

Last month, the Canadian Apartment Properties Real Estate Investment Trust — or CAPREIT — announced it was selling the six parks on the Island as part of a $740 million deal with TPG Real Estate, a private-equity company based in the U.S.

The sale involves 12,138 residential lots for manufactured mini-homes or mobile homes spread across 75 sites throughout Canada.

This is the world we live in, corporations profiting from the housing shortage caused by Trudeau’s mass immigration scam.

What will become of the Trailer Park boys?
