Toronto signed a secret deal that would have let it back out of hosting the 2026 World Cup

Toronto signed a secret agreement that gave it the right to withdraw from hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup if it didn’t receive financial support from senior levels of government by mid-2020, internal emails obtained by the Star show.

But for reasons that remain unclear, the city didn’t trigger the deal, leaving it on the hook for the skyrocketing costs of games.

A draft of the deal is contained in emails obtained by the Star through a freedom of information request. They provide the fullest picture yet of how the city joined the bid to host the global soccer tournament in 2018, despite not meeting the key council condition of securing provincial and federal funding beforehand.

Looks like the rich have hoodwinked the lokel yokel tax payers once again.

‘He’s a liar and a hate-monger’: Former prime minister Kim Campbell slams Pierre Poilievre

OTTAWA — Former prime minister Kim Campbell called Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre a “liar and a hate-monger,” and suggested she won’t vote for his party in the next federal election.

Campbell, who was a Progressive Conservative prime minister for just over four months in 1993, made the comments on the “Beyond a Ballot” podcast in an episode released on Thursday to mark International Women’s Day.

“I think there might be some quite good people in the Conservative party. I have problems with their leader,” said Campbell.

Pregnant woman, husband murdered inside Bowmanville home were targeted, police say after 3 suspects arrested

Three suspects are in custody in connection with what police say was a “targeted killing” in Bowmanville last year that left a pregnant woman and her husband dead.

During a news conference on Friday morning, police said Aram Kamel, 28, and his wife, 26-year-old Rafad Alzubaidy, were “shot multiple times at close range” at their home in Bowmanville in the early morning hours of Feb. 4, 2023.

Their bodies were discovered on the main floor of the residence more than 12 hours later after officers were called to the Crombie Road home to conduct a wellness check that afternoon, Det.-Sgt. Brad Corner told reporters during Friday’s update.

US says most UFO sightings in 1960’s likely secret military tests

A spike in UFO sightings in the 1960s was likely caused by tests of advanced US spy planes and space technology, a Pentagon report has concluded.

Officials also said there was “no evidence” that the US government had encountered alien life.

Most sightings of UFOs were ordinary objects from Earth, according to the report submitted to Congress on Friday.

But Pentagon officials accepted that their research won’t quell popular beliefs about alien guests.

They’re getting desperate.

So why so secret?

Seems the same stage managed Project Bluebook crapola.

Grumpy Old Man Mumbles State of the Union

The National Guard is for emergencies, not for everyday subway policing.

Joe Biden, like Adolf Hitler and Axl Rose, arrived late. He entered the House of Representatives at 9:16 p.m. and began delivering his State of the Union nine minutes later. Unlike Christmas, it was not worth the wait.

He addressed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine first and at great length. The invasion of America’s Southern border came later, precisely at 10:06 p.m. Citizens in McCallen, Texas, watching their city overrun, or in Roxbury, Massachusetts, seeing a local recreation center repurposed as a shelter for immigrants, did not enrich his family’s coffers as did the Ukrainian interests paying his son, after all.

Governor Hochul’s War on the Subway

New York’s subways aren’t safe. Three stranger-on-stranger homicides occurred during the first two months of the year, making a total of 34 killings in four years. Violent felony subway crime, overall, was 61 percent higher in January compared to January 2019, the start of New York’s last normal year. But Governor Kathy Hochul’s latest idea, deploying the National Guard on the platforms and trains, is no solution. The National Guard is a military force; it exists to respond to natural disasters and external threats, including terrorism. Subway crime and disorder are neither of these. They’re the predictable result of New York’s pullback over the past half-decade in incapacitating recidivist criminals. We don’t need to send in the troops. We just need to do what we did until 2019: keep anti-social and violent people off the subways.

Where is Kate? The royal family attracts more speculation by the day

One of America’s most popular TV comedy programmes was asking the question that had captured the nation.

It was not about the Super Tuesday primary contests ahead of the US elections, or the State of the Union address, which elicited an exaggerated yawn from the presenter. Instead, The Daily Show’s Ronny Chieng turned to look straight into the camera to ask: “Where is Kate Middleton? Where are you, Kate?”

‘Ramadan – Month of Jihad’ : Ramadan Will Not Stop Hamas From Killing Jews

International mediators and world leaders, including US President Joe Biden, are hoping to secure a ceasefire deal between Israel and the Iran-backed Hamas terror group before the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which starts on March 10.

On March 5, Biden warned of potential problems without a ceasefire deal by Ramadan. “There’s got to be a ceasefire because Ramadan – if we get into circumstances where this continues to Ramadan, Israel and Jerusalem could be very, very dangerous,” he told reporters in Washington.

Even the Liberal Media Seems to Know Biden’s Speech Was Bad

I predicted that as long as Joe Biden didn’t drop dead during his final State of the Union address, the liberal media would gush over how great it was. But as someone who suffered through the entire thing, I know it was far from great. I guess someone in the White House told Biden that the angry old man vibe was a good idea, and that’s what he went with. It was bizarre to watch Biden give what was perhaps the most partisan State of the Union address in history and then, at the end, have the audacity to claim he “will always be a president for all Americans.”

Actress posing as gender-confused girl prescribed testosterone within minutes at Quebec clinic

The French language arm of the Canada’s state broadcaster has published an investigative report on the gender “transitioning” children, revealing that an actress posing as a 14-year-old patient was prescribed testosterone after just nine minutes of consultation.

On February 29, Radio-Canada, the French arm of the state-funded Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), released a documentary showing an actress posing as a 14-year-old patient at a private “gender clinic” in Quebec being prescribed testosterone and advised on life-altering mutilating surgeries during a consultation that lasted a meagre nine minutes.

Nolte: Biden Losing Young Democrats in Hollywood over Israel Support

His Fraudulency Joe Biden is losing support in Hollywood among young Democrats who hate the Jews.

“People are pulling away — one million percent. I was with a bunch of young executives and producers, a group of very progressive people,” a top agent told the far-left Wrap. “The Israel issue – it’s shocking to me – but everyone under 30 at that table said they were not voting for Biden or had serious reservations.”

Thousands of Ukrainians expected to arrive before visa deadline

Andrii Batitskii and his wife Kateryna Bondarenko are building a life from scratch in Surrey, B.C., after fleeing war in Ukraine.

Originally from Kharkiv, a city just 30 kilometres from the Russian border, the couple are two of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who came to Canada through the Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel (CUAET), a temporary emergency visa program that was enacted shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine.

The program offered an expedited process for Ukrainians to live and work in Canada for up to three years.

Canadians should thank Joe Biden foe botching the Afghanistan withdrawal.

Nearly a year after it closed its embassy in Afghanistan following Kabul’s fall to the Taliban in 2021, the federal government was trying to plan flights out of the country to bring in an estimated 12,000 Afghans it believed were “current and future” clients of Immigration Canada, CBC News has learned.

University of Virginia EXPOSED for $20M annual DEI spend on 235 staff, including $243,000-a-year equity tsar who blames premature Appalachia deaths on ‘toxicity of whiteness,’ watchdog says

Rachel Spraker – that’s a man

The University of Virginia spends $20 million a year on its 235 DEI staffers, including a woman who says the spike in premature deaths in Appalachia is due to the ‘toxicity of whiteness,’ a damning report says.

Open the Books, a spending watchdog, says the flagship public college in Charlottesville drops $15 million on salaries and $5 million more in benefits to its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) team.

They include Rachel Spraker, an ‘equity and inclusive’ officer, who calls Appalachia’s wave of premature deaths a sign of ‘white toxicity,’ and the school’s diversity chief Martin Davidson, who pockets nearly $600,000 a year.
