A Spy named “Craig”: Former Canadian UN official detained in Switzerland over espionage on behalf of China

A former Canadian UN official who currently works as a North Korea expert is being detained in Switzerland over espionage suspicions, according to media reports Thursday.

The reports were part of a joint investigation by German news outlet Der Spiegel, Swiss media outlet Tamedia and NK News, a U.S. news outlet providing analyses on North Korea. CTV News has not independently verified the story.

NK News names him as “Craig” that’s it.

North Korea expert, missing for months, detained in Switzerland for espionage

Friends grew concerned when Craig suddenly stopped responding to messages earlier this year. The North Korea expert and former U.N. official regularly traveled to China for his work as an environmental consultant, and some feared Beijing had detained him. Others suspected a health scare. His wife only told friends and family that he was OK but couldn’t be contacted.

Now it turns out that Craig, whom friends described as a kind and funny person with a deep interest in improving the lives of North Koreans, was in a Swiss prison the whole time.

Scientists are getting serious about UFOs. Here’s why

For millennia, humans have seen inexplicable things in the sky. Some have been beautiful, some have been terrifying, and some — like auroras and solar eclipses before they were understood scientifically — have been both. Today’s aircraft, balloons, drones, satellites and more only increase the chances of spotting something confounding overhead.

In the United States, unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, came into the national spotlight in the late 1940s and early ’50s. A series of incidents, including a supposedly crashed alien spaceship near Roswell, N.M., generated something of an American obsession. The Roswell UFO turned out to be part of a classified program, the remnants of a balloon monitoring the atmosphere for signs of clandestine Russian nuclear tests. But it and other reported sightings prompted the U.S. government to launch various projects and panels to investigate such claims, as Science News reported in 1966 (SN: 10/22/66), as well as kicking off hobby groups and conspiracy theories.

As my many skeptical readers understand (I hope) I am not trying to convince anyone. I am simply asking you to tag along with my own interest and who knows maybe we’ll all learn something.

The Phoenix Lights event – a mass sighting of a UFO is as compelling as any evidence I am aware of that something’s happening here, and what it is ain’t exactly clear.

This video I took in Leeds sums up why white communities are bubbling with rage

Elites who cannot comprehend these violent uprisings should spend time in parts of this country that are impoverished and disenfranchised

The dirty mattress at the top of Back Belbrooke Terrace had a brief second lease of life as a gym mat cum daybed. Small children with dirty faces, tatty clothes and nowhere else to play used it for wobbly headstands or just lay there watching the world go by.

Apparently it was thrown out because it was riddled with bed bugs, but parasites are the least of the worries for kids on this street. Scampering about in worn-out shoes, they navigate broken glass, overflowing bags of rubbish, stinking piles of old tissues and all manner of other unmentionables. According to locals, dirty needles and human excrement are standard health hazards.

Proles will no longer fear us! Trudeau’s plan to cut temporary immigration means we can’t depress wages & profit from shortages says Corporate Welfare Class

Trudeau’s plan to reduce temporary immigration risks economic harm: business groups

Canada’s independent business advocate says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s plan to reduce temporary immigration risks dire economic consequences, underscoring the pressures the government is facing as it tries to slow population growth.

Don’t know what they’re on about. Trudeau will do squat.

They were supposed to decrease the intake of phony foreign students yet somehow we’re on track to exceed 2023’s numbers.

I hope Poilievre is listening. Corporate carpetbaggers should not be in charge of immigration policy.

Why Are the European Union and the World Bank Paying Palestinian Terrorists?

Back in March, the Biden administration claimed that it was persuading the Palestinian Authority (PA), led by Mahmoud Abbas, to change its murder-for-hire “pay for slay” policy. Terrorists who have been imprisoned in Israel for their crimes, as well as families of deceased or wounded terrorists, receive monthly stipends as a reward for murdering Jews. The longer the prison sentence, the higher the monthly stipend. Talk about incentivizing and encouraging terrorism.

Where is the alligator in Lake Erie? Tracks spotted on search’s third day

Looks hopped up on somethin…

For those who are out on the water near the Erie bayfront attempting to catch the Lake Erie alligator, Jayson Olsen from Siren’s Nest of Exotic Rescue has some advice: Leave the task to the professionals.

Olsen, 38, was out on Lake Erie around the foot of East Avenue where the alleged alligator was initially spotted. His journey began early Wednesday morning. Since then he has encountered individuals who are also seeking the alligator.

I bet they blame Global Warming.

I totally stepped all over that so called abuse survivor and now people are saying mean things about me says disgusting Liberal Pol!

The Hijacking of Canadian Democracy by Anita Vandenbeld

… But this week, I closed my constituency office because I fear for my safety and that of my staff. Headlines in mainstream media about me scream “Abuse survivor demands Liberal MP apologize after testimony ‘hijacked’ in chaotic House committee” and “Witnesses storm out of House committee in tears, decrying Liberal politicization”. Social media posts include comments like “It sounds like Anita has to get assaulted viciously to take this issue more seriously”, “Look at this fat POS, someone put her out of her misery”, “I guess these women would change their mind if it happened to them or someone they love”, and worse. My car license plate was posted online. How did we get to this point?

Trudeau government delays appointment of latest antisemitic Muslim they hoped to get away with hiring after independent review

OTTAWA – After an independent review, Justice Minister Arif Virani announced Wednesday that Birju Dattani has agreed not to begin his appointment as chief commissioner of the Canadian Human Rights Commission on Thursday as planned.

Birju Dattani – Hateful Muslim

Virani launched the investigation after Canadian Jewish organizations raised concerns about allegations surrounding Dattani’s past activities.

Dattani, the first Muslim and racialized person to be appointed to the role, has previously denied allegations that he made anti-Israel statements, including what Conservatives characterize as a “justification of terrorism.”
