Among the hordes cheering on Hamas from university campuses and the streets of America are among the most privileged kids in the world. There’s the pricey North Face coats, keffiyeh, of course, and a slew of other luxe goods.

School’s out …
JUST IN: Columbia University has announced classes will be remote for the rest of the year as anti-Israel protests rock the school.

Poilievre’s Conservatives reach highest-ever lead over Trudeau’s Liberals, according to new poll
An unprecedented streak of pre-budget announcements focused on housing and youth may have dominated headlines, but they did little to move the needle for Justin Trudeau’s Liberals, polling suggests.
Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives have their highest-ever lead over the Liberals, with 37 per cent of survey respondents choosing the Tories, compared to 19 per cent who say they’ll vote for Trudeau’s Liberals. But it remains to be seen how last week’s budget will impact the horse-race, as Trudeau and his cabinet pitch their plan to Canadians.
My cat is weird.
Xavier has always been too timid to venture into the hallway on our floor.
In the past he would stick his nose out briefly then make a beeline for his hideaway.
He has never been fond of visitors aka “strangers”.
But something has changed.
The last time he poked his head out he commenced a very serious low continuous growling before scampering back inside.
Last week I held him in my arms and opened the door, again he started with the growling before panicking and leaping from my arms so he could bravely run away.
Yesterday we heard a noise in the hall. Xavier was in his hammock which is situated just behind my head when I am seated at my desk.
He began to growl in the same serious fashion.
Then he ran for cover when I opened the door to see the what the fuss was about.
No idea what brought this on. Weird.
Jamie Sarkonak: Danielle Smith is the antidote to Trudeau’s DEI agenda in universities
The Liberal government has infused its social policy goals into funding for academic research for years — but to many progressives, that’s all fine and good. The real problem, they’ll tell you, is the premier who noticed it: Danielle Smith.
To push back at the federal encroachment into all things provincial — universities, yes, but also municipalities, health, schools, pharmacare and daycare — Smith’s government has tabled Bill 18, the provincial priorities act. The law would make the provincial government the final authority on all agreements between “provincial entities” and the feds.
Budget 2024 failed to spark ‘political reboot’ for Liberals, polling suggests
The 2024 federal budget failed to spark a much-needed rebound in the polls for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s trailing Liberal party, according to new Ipsos polling released Tuesday.
Canadian reaction to the Liberal government’s latest spending plans shows an historic challenge ahead of the governing party as it tries to keep the reins of government out of the Conservative party’s hands in the next election, according to one pollster.

The Liberal’s immigration policies have accomplished the opposite of what was intended
… But many are simply seeking to stay here while their claim works its way through a system that is already so overwhelmed some claimants are living in homeless shelters or on the street and it can take several years before the Immigration and Refugee Board reaches a final decision on an application.
The worst thing about all this? The Liberals’ immigration policies have accomplished the very opposite of what they intended: They have undermined support for immigration.
I prefer to think of it as Canadians waking up to the Big Lie of immigration policy in Canada.
Immigration policy was never designed to benefit Canadians.
It was designed to benefit the corporate class and the political class at our expense.
We will continue to pay dearly for sleepwalking through our nations destruction and must remain on guard against those who lie about mass immigration’s alleged benefits.
Why an Indian men’s rights group is burning underwear
Earlier this month, an Indian men’s rights group launched a campaign that sent social media aflutter.
The NCM India Council For Men Affairs half-burnt their underwear and dispatched it to local politicians to show their discontent, and protest against what they call “anti-male policies” and “women-centric gender-biased laws” in the country.
Frustrated with anti male policies of the Govt and political parties activists are burning their underwear and sending these half burnt underwear to politicians as a mark of their protest against women centric Gender biased Laws. #चड्डी_जलाओ_पुरुष_बचाओpic.twitter.com/TycE9LRx0Q

Peter Menzies: Increasing Numbers of Canadians No Longer Recognize Their Country
Sure, some of this is natural.
As people age, they tend to worry that the values they lived by are no longer being upheld. Civilization, as the saying goes, is thousands of years old but never more than one generation deep—and that becomes more of a concern as people enter the contemplative phase of their lives.
Trudeau has turned Toronto into a 3rd World shithole.
Israeli officials to NYT: ‘Thousands of more Hamas terrorists in northern Gaza’
Israeli officials told the New York Times on Monday that in the north of the Gaza Strip, where the IDF has waged intense and difficult fighting, there are still 4,000-5,000 armed Hamas terrorists left.
US officials have said that it is likely that Hamas will not be completely destroyed by military activity. Still, the pace of rebuilding its strength depends on the next steps that Israel will take after the fighting.
