Adam Pankratz: Mark Carney’s elitist rhetoric ignores the frustrations of the masses

Ignatieff but without the charm.

“… Run this test with any issue you please. Concerned about race-based hiring? Bigot. Don’t think children should get puberty blockers? Trans-exclusionary radical feminist. Support Israel? Supporter of genocide. Don’t want safe supply and rampant drug use in the streets? You want addicts to die. Even the most mundane issues, such as capital gains inclusion rates, can see opponents tarred as hateful for not caring about intergenerational fairness. Demonize and dismiss rather than discuss and debate is now the modus operandi of a self-appointed elect here to save us all.”

Islamization: Ramadan in the churches of Euope

Manchester Cathedral

European churches – Catholic and Protestant – are committing suicide and Islamization seems to have entered the minds of even the Christian faithful with the irreversibility of the simulacrum. In a continuous coming to terms with the times where everything is negotiable.

Ramadan has been celebrated in the parishes of Italy.

We read from the diocese of Belluno: “The central square like Beirut, Rabat or Algiers. On Saturday 6 April, as soon as sunset fell, many caftans for men and veils on the heads of women for Iftar, the dinner to break the fast during the month of Ramadan, which the Islamic community organized together with the Church”.

It’s a dangerous myth that mass migration is good for the economy

There is no clearer example of the broken Westminster consensus than the last three decades of immigration policy.

Successive governments have failed to tackle illegal migration. And as I have set out in these pages, the latest attempt – the Safety of Rwanda Act – will shortly join the graveyard of policies that haven’t re-established our southern border.

But as offensive and dangerous as illegal migration is, the bigger scandal is the story of legal migration because the numbers involved are so much greater. Last year, there were about 30,000 illegal small boat arrivals, but this was dwarfed by the 1.2 million people who arrived here perfectly legally.

Mass immigration is just another way that the rich and their government stooges keep you impoverished.

New York City’s Jewish Population Under ‘Dark Cloud’ as Tensions Rise

The sense of opportunity Efraim Alkoby found in New York was rocked last month when someone splattered red paint on the kosher cafe he owns on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.

Alkoby, who grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family in Jerusalem, said he learned to be tolerant during his 30 years in New York. Now, someone opposed to Israel’s war in Gaza wrote “form line here to support genocide” on the sidewalk outside Effy’s Cafe.

“There’s a very dark cloud over Jews,” Alkoby, 48 years old, said in an interview.

Rx for America

We might start by returning to energy independence. The climate would not be hurt one bit: The US has plenty of oil under the ground; we can extract it more cleanly than anyone. Instead, we are paying exorbitant prices to, say, Russia for oil that is far dirtier, while the Chinese Communist Party are opening two new coal plants a week. The result, in terms of clean air, is therefore currently either net-zero or, thanks to “protecting” the planet from America’s clean oil, actually down.

Additionally, the US outlay for buying overpriced foreign oil and gas for immediate domestic use has simply served to finance both Russia’s war on Ukraine, and Iran and Hamas’s war on Israel. If the US were to start drilling, refining and exporting oil again, its price would go back down to $40 or $50 a barrel, nearly half its current $83 – and Russia and Iran, soon unable to afford their global aggression, would be forced to stop.

‘Unprofessional’: Couple waits hours at a hospital to see a doctor who wasn’t there

A pair of Montreal-area seniors are ripping into Quebec’s health system after an experience that left them feeling upset and disrespected.

The couple says they were left waiting for hours at a hospital, even though the doctor they were waiting for had left.

“I find it very inconsiderate and unprofessional,” said 72-year-old Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac resident Karen Williams.

This reminds me of the time Mom’s eye became infected due to a stitch that was left in her eye. It was a horror story that caused her to lose vision in her right eye.
