In Toronto-St Paul’s, times and politics are changing

A few weeks ago, a friend who lives in the riding of Toronto-St. Paul’s heard the doorbell ring. It was Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hadn’t even called the by-election for the affluent midtown riding, and yet Mr. Poilievre was already knocking on doors in a seat that has been Liberal for decades.

No one is realistically predicting that public disaffection with the Liberals will result in an upset in Toronto-St. Paul’s when the by-election is held on June 24.

Toronto will vote Liberal. That comet can’t come soon enough.

Justin Trudeau Is in Deep, Deep Trouble

A new poll predicts certain disaster for the once-loved prime minister.

Justin Trudeau was once the darling of Canadian liberals and hailed by American Democrats as the example par excellence of a progressive leader. During the Trump presidency, Democrats extolled Trudeau as the leader up north whose support for progressive values and multiculturalism — as well as his intensive economic policies — made him a saint in comparison to Donald Trump.

Yes, It Was Rigged

The Alvin Bragg trial was everything that Trump warns about.

‘Rigged” is a favorite word of Donald Trump and his allies.

It describes how institutions and processes have been distorted by a progressive elite to tilt the playing field against Trump and his supporters.

‘Overwhelming majority of the Canadian poor are white,’ report finds

A new report by the Calgary-based think tank Aristotle Foundation suggests that Canada’s race-based approach to fighting poverty might be flawed, since it is based on an incorrect assumption that race, racial discrimination and poverty are tightly linked.

The paper, “Poverty and Race in Canada: Facts about Race, Discrimination, and the Poor,” analyzed recent Statistics Canada data and also looked at public policy initiatives at both the provincial and federal levels that are designed to fight poverty.

WTF?

Trans activist mental health counselor claims that counselors "have a moral duty to be liberal or leftist."

Supposedly, conservatives can't be counselors because we don't regurgitate the lie that people can change their gender.

Ford says stop bringing “problems from everywhere else in the world” after Toronto Jewish school shooting – usual suspects heads explode

Ontario Premier Doug Ford on Thursday accused people of bringing “problems from everywhere else in the world” to the province after a recent shooting at a Toronto Jewish girls school.

Ford made those sharp comments alongside Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at a news conference in the city, days after students and staff at Rabbi Yaacov Vidal of the Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary School said they were shaken by what happened, but undeterred.

The usual asshats are going Nutz.

Italy’s schools avoid teaching Dante: “He offends Islam”

The world has lost its mind. Italy is just one example. It is so liberal that its students can call to kill Jews, but no one dares write a word against Islam.

Is Europe ready for Trump 2.0?

The 2024 presidential race between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is a dead heat. At most, a few percentage points separate them in the polls.

Thousands of miles away, however, European leaders are operating as if Trump has already won, not wanting to be caught flat-footed yet again. When Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in 2016, European officials scrambled to establish contacts with the incoming administration. This time, the same wonks are proactively reaching out to Trump-friendly lawmakers and think-tankers, not only to understand what Trump’s foreign policy would look like in a second term but to press their own priorities.

John Ivison: Tens of thousands of people want to join our military but we’re snubbing them

Politicians are justly criticized for always voting at their party’s call, and never thinking for themselves at all, to paraphrase the musical HMS Pinafore.

Yet there are still freewheeling, free-thinking MPs who put the public interest ahead of their party.

Veteran Liberal MP John McKay, a parliamentarian for 27 years and current chair of the House defence committee, is one such.

Turkish Textbooks: Turning History on Its Head

Turkey’s Islamist government under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is preparing to further indoctrinate Turkish schoolchildren in propaganda regarding Israel, Greeks, Armenians, Cyprus and other issues of history and geography.

New content, named “Turkey’s Century Education Model”, was added to this year’s curriculum and only recently made available for public opinion by the Ministry of National Education.

Achieving net zero targets neither feasible nor realistic

Canada and other developed countries have committed to achieving “net-zero” carbon emissions by 2050. Yet here at the midway point between the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, the first international treaty to set binding targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and the looming deadline of 2050, there is good reason to doubt the feasibility of this ambitious transition.

CNN’s Coates: De Niro’s Appearance Was Not Political

On Tuesday, CNN’s Laura Coates failed to understand how actor Robert De Niro’s appearance in New York was a political move by the left. De Niro spoke outside the courthouse as closing arguments in Donald Trump’s trial began. The day before he appeared in New York, he starred in a new Biden Campaign released a new advertisement which criticized Trump.

Trump Found Guilty in Hush-Money Case

Donald J. Trump has been convicted of falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal that threatened his ascent to the White House in 2016, part of a scheme that prosecutors described as a fraud on the American people. He is the first American president to be declared a felon, a stain he will carry as he seeks to regain the presidency.

Twitter #Verdict

Trump responds to the politically motivated corrupt witch hunt they called a "trial" in which he was found guilty.

Does this make you want to vote for him more or less?pic.twitter.com/0VHh5Ctxoy

Evolving police tech or ‘slippery slope’? Facial recognition partnership in Peel and York has critics concerned

Experts say a partnership between Peel and York police to use facial recognition to search mug shots for matches with crime scene photos contributes to over-policing minority groups, violates privacy and poses a risk of misidentification.

While not the first GTA police service to use facial recognition technology for investigations, this move by York and Peel police, launched Monday, is part of a growing effort by police services across North America to use AI and facial recognition technology to investigate and prevent crime.
