CRESCIA: Trudeau hoping for a rerun of his father’s victory over Joe Clark?
During last year’s Liberal National Convention, Justin Trudeau delivered the keynote speech. He was animated and worked the podium to dispel rumors that he was no longer up for the job. He stared into the camera and spoke directly to his political opponent Poilievre: “They either say investing in Canadians is a waste of money, or that our policies are too woke. Too woke, he said, Hey Pierre Poilievre, it’s time for you to wake up.”
‘Playing rugby in lingerie? Ridiculous!’: The Team GB photoshoot that backfired
Their fans are well accustomed to seeing Team GB’s women’s Olympic rugby players assert their prowess on the pitch. They are less accustomed, however, to seeing them in lingerie.
Faced with a stiff training session ahead of the impending Olympic Games, the last thing sports aficionados would expect to encounter is these accomplished athletes practicing their moves in a series of racy lace bras, knickers, teddies and suspenders. Where were their sports bras? In fact, where were their clothes?
Liberals blame local candidate, not Trudeau for loss
The Trudeau Liberals have done some deep thinking about why they lost the Toronto-St. Paul’s byelection and have decided it was Leslie Church’s fault. Forget the fact that the Liberals have been trailing badly in the polls for the last year, forget that the prime minister is unpopular, let’s blame the local candidate.
Canada Records More Than 8,000 Opioid-Related Deaths in 2023
-related deaths continue to rise in Canada, averaging approximately 22 lives lost each day in 2023, an ongoing trend since the pandemic, according to government data.
There were 8,049 deaths due to opioid poisoning in the country last year, a 7 percent increase over 2022, according to a newly released report from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).
It’s Now Knives Out for Joe Biden among Democrats
In the immediate aftermath of Thursday’s presidential debate, open speculation about Joe Biden’s electoral viability was mostly consigned to left-leaning commentators, columnists, and former U.S. senator Claire McCaskill (D., Mo.).
But the president’s foundation of support among congressional Democrats began to fall out from under him this week, when several sitting lawmakers either publicly called on Biden to drop out of the presidential race or entertained speculation that he should strongly consider stepping aside.
The human inclination toward inertia guides Western nation’s anti-Israel policies
Humanity’s constant and, by the laws of physics, the unavoidable inclination is to minimize energy use. We naturally take the shortest route between two points. Just like a rock flying through space moves along a straight line, our bodies and minds naturally seek the shortest distance, shortest time, least energy consumption, or least costly manner to complete all tasks facing us. This is “the principle of least action.” This principle goes a long way to explaining the Left’s hostility to Jews and support for Hamas and its fellow travelers.
Invoking The 25th Amendment Is The Right Thing To Do, Not Just The Politically Savvy One
President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance last week has kicked off a firestorm in Washington and around the country about whether Biden should remain the Democrat nominee for president. The clear political truth is that Democrats recognize he should not remain at the top of the ticket, but they also recognize that Kamala Harris is neither popular, nor particularly competent, and as a result, they find themselves in a political box of their own design.
When Canada’s Tories faced electoral wipeout
It seems all but certain that the Conservative Party will face a historic wipeout in the coming UK General Election. While we often see comparisons with New Labour’s landslide in 1997, which pushed the Tories out of power for 13 years, there is an even more striking precedent – namely, the fate that befell their Canadian counterparts just over 30 years ago.
How Kamala Harris became an internet icon
In the last 24 hours, Kamala Harris has become the new favourite to replace Joe Biden. In doing so, she’s now at the centre of a burgeoning meme culture that’s rebranding her most widely-mocked public statements as quirky and charismatic.
Final MRP poll shows Labour set to win biggest majority since 1832
Labour is on track to win the largest majority of any party in modern history amid evidence that voters are rejecting Rishi Sunak’s plea not to hand Sir Keir Starmer a landslide victory.
The final large-scale YouGov poll of the campaign finds that the Conservatives will be reduced to just 102 MPs, losing more than 70 per cent of the seats the party won five years ago.
Labour is expected to win 431 seats, giving Starmer a landslide majority of 212 — surpassing Tony Blair’s 1997 victory and making him the most successful leader in electoral terms. If confirmed on Friday it would also be the largest majority for any single party since 1832.
Why they elected Sunak is beyond me.
More dark allegations against embattled Diddy as former porn star claims he trafficked her to party guests
A former porn star is suing Diddy over claims he trafficked her to have sex with party guests and threatened to blackmail her if she did not comply.
Adria English, whose stage name was Omunique, claimed she first met the musician in 2004 when her boyfriend was auditioning for a Sean John modeling gig.
She alleges she worked parties hosted by Diddy in which she would drink alcohol laced with narcotics like ecstasy and would be asked to flirt with guests.
Michelle Obama Only Democrat to Best Trump in Hypothetical Matchup
Former first lady Michelle Obama easily bested former president Donald Trump in a hypothetical polling matchup, making her the only Democrat to do so.
Obama garnered 50 percent support among registered voters compared to Trump’s 39 percent, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday. Only 4 percent said they would not vote at all in a potential race between Obama and Trump. In comparison, the presumptive Democratic nominee, President Joe Biden, was evenly matched with his Republican opponent at 40 percent. Eight percent said they would vote for another candidate in that case, and an additional 8 percent said they wouldn’t vote.
School boards shouldn’t rush into adopting anti-Palestinian racism strategies
On June 20, Toronto District School Board (TDSB) trustees voted 15-7 to add the term “anti-Palestinian racism” to its anti-racism strategy. As a result, a new working group will be established to create a stand-alone strategy to address anti-Palestinian racism and discrimination in schools, and the board will introduce a “professional learning series” on the topic. While on its face this development might seem righteous and well-intentioned, for many in the Jewish community, highlighting anti-Palestinian racism raises red flags. In light of these dynamics and the potential risks, we need to start having more challenging conversations about anti-Palestinian racism, even if those conversations are uncomfortable.
Nearly 40% of Immigrants say they’re considering leaving their province — or Canada — over high housing costs
Canada has reached record levels of immigration in recent years — but as housing costs continue to soar, many are finding their Canadian dream has turned into a nightmare.
According to the latest poll from the Angus Reid Institute, about two-in-five recent immigrants say they’re seriously considering leaving their province of residence due to housing unaffordability.
All regions suffer to a degree but Toronto is dying. Killed by Trudeau’s mass immigration scam.
