WASHINGTON — President Trump was stunned to learn last week that US intelligence indicates new Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei may be gay — and that his father, the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, feared his suitability to rule the Islamic Republic for that reason, The Post can reveal.
Trump couldn’t contain his surprise and laughed aloud when he was briefed on the intel, according to sources.
Chinese electric vehicles present risks for Canadians who are critical of Beijing, as the vehicles are capable of sending camera, microphone, and location data back to China, a former senior government official told MPs.
Margaret McCuaig-Johnston, a China expert and senior fellow at the University of Ottawa, told MPs on the House of Commons international trade committee on March 12 that Chinese-made vehicles include software from the Chinese technology company Baidu, which collects data from the vehicles and transmits it back to China.
The war against Iran unleashed by the United States and Israel two weeks ago brings to the boil the clash of civilisations that has been simmering since the Islamic Revolution in 1979.
Despite the efforts of the mullahs to incite the entire Muslim world against the West, that conflict has so far been largely contained. Iran’s sporadic drone and missile strikes on the Gulf states, Saudi Arabia and Jordan have failed to provoke these states to distance themselves from the US, while the “Arab street” has remained quiescent.
It hatches its eggs at -25C; survives cold, dark months by sticking excess food collected during summer on the underside of tree branches using its own saliva and doesn’t even fly south for winter.
It’s the Canada jay, also often called the whiskey jack. If members of the Canadian Senate have their way, it will soon become our national bird.

The US is offering ordinary Iranians a $10 million reward to help them track down the regime’s hardline leaders.
The US State Department issued a Most Wanted poster, featuring the new Supreme Leader and his top henchmen, urging Iranians to make contact via encrypted social media channels.
As well as the reward – equivalent to £7.5 million – there will be an opportunity for informers to relocate to the US, says the notice, which was posted on the department’s website and across social media.
Canada doesn’t have a strategic petroleum reserve — like the United States — and still imports foreign oil into parts of Eastern Canada
U.S. President Donald Trump has been trying to talk down oil prices during a war in the Middle East.
Federal Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson is trying to talk up increasing Canadian oil production to help strained global markets.
Good luck to both.
For a career banker, Mark Carney plays the role of Machiavellian politician very well.
The prime minister has now plucked a third MP from the opposition benches and is just two by-election wins in safe Liberal seats away from a majority government. This time Carney’s fruit was harvested from the NDP, not the Conservatives, and came in the form of Lori Idlout, the MP from Nunavut.
Isn’t Islamic terrorism worse than ‘Islamophobia’?
Since President Trump initiated strikes on Iran’s theocratic, totalitarian regime two weeks ago, members of the so-called “religion of peace” have been carrying out revenge killings across the United States.
On March 1, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Senegal wearing a “Property of Allah” hoodie opened fire on patrons having fun at an Austin, Texas, beer garden. He killed three Americans and injured a dozen more before being put down. When feds searched the shooter’s home, they found an Iranian flag and pictures of Iranian leaders. There was a Quran in the killer’s vehicle.
VANCOUVER — A Canadian court ruling ends in an anti-SLAPP win for a journalist who reported on a China-connected wealth and spiritual group that first raised alarms with videos of military-style training on Vancouver Island, and has since drawn headlines from India to France, where Le Monde also reported on the murder of one of the group’s employees in Vancouver and its efforts to embed itself in French society.
America’s far-left public school teachers just can’t seem to help themselves. Even in this day-and-age, when nearly every child comes to class equipped with a Chromebook and smartphone, the vitriol of these educators is so extreme that it trumps professional discipline and restraint. It needs an outlet and an audience to achieve its apotheosis.
In the most recent instance, that audience consisted of a class of Ohio high school social studies students who were treated to a highly inappropriate and venomous rant targeting President Trump and his military campaign against the Muslim dictatorship of Iran.
BREAKING: Teacher at Steubenville High School (@BigRedPrincipal) in Ohio recorded going on unhinged rant in class against the Trump admin, criticizing the U.S. military, while calling President Trump a "p*dophile” and “liar.”
I’m told the teacher is Scott Lane.

A man who was deported last month for suspected involvement in extortion crimes had been in Canada on a study permit. He was believed to have fired several shots earlier this year at a Surrey home from a Jeep Wrangler, federal records show.
Lovebir Singh, 22, was identified by Surrey police as a suspect in extortion-related criminal activity in a public appeal last month looking for information on Singh’s activities and his associates.
