‘I didn’t do any of it’: Father and son accused of Toronto terror plot both deny younger man’s guilt

The father and son accused of plotting a violent Toronto terrorist attack in support of the Islamic State denied the son’s involvement during a court appearance Thursday.

Ahmed Fouad Mostafa Eldidi, 62, and his son, Mostafa Eldidi, 26, appeared in Newmarket court on terrorism charges for allegedly plotting what authorities have called a “serious and violent attack” in Toronto. The men were arrested at a Richmond Hill hotel Sunday.

Jamie Sarkonak: Even banks are saying immigration is putting the squeeze on gen Z

It’s been about a year since Immigration Minister Marc Miller took up his post at Canada’s gates with promises to bring the flow of newcomers down to manageable levels, and the situation has only gotten worse.

In 2023 alone, 1.3 million people came to the country, growing the population by 3.2 per cent — that’s more than three times as seen in the United States. It’s a rate that would have been hard to fathom years ago: temporary foreign workers are up sevenfold since 2000, as is the international student population. Once on a gentle rise, the numbers took off in 2015, and became especially steep after the COVID pandemic.

The Paris Olympics Aren’t Representative of the France I Know

The French progressive elites whose woke idiocy has been on full display during these Paris Olympics are noxious.

The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, particularly the appalling mockery of The Last Supper, has been roundly condemned, and deservedly so. The ridiculous “Bacchic Tableau” and the even more ridiculous post facto claim that this was innocent fun were disgusting. In offering such a lame apology, the International Olympic Committee and the Paris Organizing Committee have fully earned our scorn. This, however, was all of a piece with a literal parade of insult and bad taste, exemplified by the repeated “beheadings” of Marie Antoinette, among other outrageous nonsense.

Men beating up women, Mocking Christians, Muslim Hitlers, A child rapist, the French. What is there not to hate?

Would You like a Blindfold?

There is an old joke in which, two Jewish friends, after having been beaten and tortured, find themselves next to each other, lined up in front of a Cossack firing squad. The Cossack commander approached them in the traditional fashion to offer blindfolds. One of the men accepts the blindfold. The other rejects the blindfold and says, “I will see this all the way and if a miracle happens and I survive, I will bear witness to your depravity.” The other Jew looks over at his friend in horror and says, “Shhh, for God’s sake! You’ll make trouble for us!”

One year after news ban, Canadian journalism is suffering — but Meta isn’t budging

Losing the ability to share news on Facebook has hurt Theresa Blackburn’s bottom line and her newspaper’s ability to serve her community — and as she works around the clock to keep her business afloat, she’s pleading with lawmakers to make a deal with Meta so publishers can once again share their content.

Blackburn’s free newspaper, the River Valley Sun, covers “ultra-local” news in New Brunswick’s Western Valley, a rural stretch of the western part of the province serving about 35,000 to 40,000 people.

The Horror of an Iranian Nuclear Weapon

The primary obligation of any national leader, including Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is to protect the integrity of the country’s borders and to ensure the safety of every citizen. Netanyahu’s legal, political, and moral duty is to ensure that every citizen can live in peace, and be free, prosperous, and independent.

These objectives of peace, prosperity, and a secure homeland are precisely what the founders of Israel strove for and what led to so many successive defensive wars started by Israel’s antagonists.

Whoopi Reads Talking Points from Card, Claims VP ‘Never’ Border Czar

After waiting a week, NewsBusters can report that ABC’s The View had finally done the meme and falsely claimed Vice President Kamala Harris (the presumptive Democratic Party nominee) was “never” the border czar. In fact, during Wednesday’s episode, moderator Whoopi Goldberg literally held up a note card and seemingly read the widely spread Democratic Party talking points about “root causes” of migration and the lie that President Biden never appointed her to that role.

Toronto sees ‘troubling’ rise in youth gun violence, fatal shootings

As detectives pored over the details of a “senseless” shooting in the parking lot of a Toronto school on June 2, they zeroed in on a young suspect.

Weeks after the shooting, Toronto police announced the arrest of a 14-year-old boy, charging him on June 24 with two counts of murder and seven counts of attempted murder.

His arrest, the force’s chief says, is part of a growing and deeply worrying trend that has seen gun violence, particularly among young people, in Ontario’s capital city.

Sometimes I wonder if they just run the same story every 6 mos. or so. Nothing changes.
