Protesters disrupt Easter Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, forcibly removed after ‘free Palestine’ chants

Protesters calling for a cease-fire in Gaza interrupted a Saturday night Easter Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, chanting “Free, free Palestine” before being removed from the service.

Thousands of pro-Palestine demonstrators gathered in Times Square earlier Saturday before some headed to the Easter Vigil service at St. Patrick’s, where their chants of “Free, free Palestine” could be heard during the second reading of the service.

Secret police report exposes Canada’s devastating economy

A new secret report by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police warns that the Canadian economy is expected to be “bleak” for the next several years under Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The report claims that living standards will continue to “decline” for “younger generations.”

While a significant portion of the report, which is labeled “Whole-of-Government Five-Year Trends for Canada,” is redacted, the report forecasts economic woes for Canada for at least the next five years.

The Americans now regard Canada as the other “Loony Bin Next Door.”

America’s Drivers Agree: LED Headlights Are Just Too Bright

There is a phenomenon producing simmering rage among drivers across the nation, on dark country roads, busy city streets and state highways: Car headlights have gotten too bright.

“This winter it was, like, oh my God, it’s every third car,” says Barbara Banfield, 67, a retired nurse who lives on Whidbey Island in Washington state.

Banfield was traveling a well-lit state highway one night and felt blinded. First she thought an inordinate number of inconsiderate people had their brights on.

No argument from me.

Tory lead could shrink if Trudeau leaves office

The polls may be tilted in the Tories’ favour, but the Liberals still have cards to play.

Last week, the Abacus polling company revealed that 41 per cent of respondents would vote for a Conservative Party of Canada candidate if an election were held now. Just 23 per cent would vote for a Liberal Party candidate, while support for the NDP was at 19 per cent.

The Abacus numbers mirror the results of nationwide polls recently conducted by Nanos Research and Mainstreet Research.

What would a Putin win in Ukraine mean for Germany?

The potential scenario is horrific: “If Putin gets his way and Ukraine loses the war, this could turn an additional ten million people into refugees,” migration expert Gerald Knaus told DW.

Russia is reporting more military incursions into Ukrainian territory on an almost daily basis. Both sides are launching missiles and drones, but it is clear that Russia is on the offensive and is better equipped. It also recently started to refer to the war as such, and no longer as a “special military operation.” At the same time, international support for Ukraine is beginning to crumble.

GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau’s climate plan makes no sense – according to Trudeau

Many Canadian economists said last week that while “Canada could abandon carbon pricing and still hit our climate targets by using other types of regulations and subsidies … it would be much more costly to do so.”

That’s similar to the point Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made recently, when he said he brought in his carbon tax because, “I prefer a clean, market-based solution” to addressing climate change, as opposed to “the heavy hand of regulations” and “incentives … subsidies and rewards.”

Pope Francis overcomes health concerns, presides over blustery Easter Sunday Mass in St. Peter’s Square

Pope Francis overcame concerns about his health to preside over Easter Sunday Mass, leading some 30,000 people in a flower-decked St. Peter’s Square in one of the most important liturgies of the year.

Just hours after celebrating the 2½-hour nighttime Easter Vigil, the 87-year-old Francis appeared in good form at the start of the liturgy in the blustery piazza.

Francis, who had part of one lung removed as a young man, has been battling respiratory problems all winter that the Vatican and he have said were bronchitis, the flu or a cold.

Conrad Black: The West is hardly in decline

It is easy to become somewhat despondent with the apparent condition of the West and of the world generally, but that conclusion is deceptive and unjustified. The war in Ukraine remains a largely unsuccessful act of naked aggression by Russia that has exposed the military of that country as inept and inefficient. Russia has a legitimate historic interest in Ukraine, but as almost the whole world recognized, it had no right to try to subjugate that country, especially having, along with the United States and the United Kingdom, guaranteed the frontiers of Ukraine when it gave up the nuclear weapons it inherited from the USSR. What is needed now is someone of the stature and competence representing an adequately influential jurisdiction, to bring the war to an end on the basis of giving a little to the Russians and securing absolute and ironclad guarantees from Russia and NATO of the revised borders of a sovereign Ukraine.

Swedish politician regrets ‘refugees welcome’ policy: ‘We were fundamentally wrong on the immigration issue’

Louise Meijer, an MP for Sweden’s centrist Moderate party, apologised to voters for her previous position on open borders. She regrets “making mistakes” by “pleading for openness and refugees [being] welcome”, she says.

Meijer says she “changed her mind” over her views, in an opinion piece for Expressen this week.

“Now, instead, I am advocating an even stricter migration policy than the one I opposed at the time,” she says.
