Britain’s Gorton and Denton by-election on Feb. 26 was more than just a local upset. It gave a glimpse into demographic changes that could shape U.S. politics.
The Green Party’s Hannah Spencer won with 41% and 14,980 votes, turning this Labour stronghold into the Greens’ first northern seat. Reform UK came second with 29% of the vote, and Labour finished third with 25%.
TORONTO — Former CBC host Travis Dhanraj told a parliamentary committee Tuesday that editorial interference, internal culture problems and political bias at CBC News have eroded public trust in the publicly funded broadcaster.
Early in his testimony, Dhanraj described an incident during editorial discussions about Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich. He told MPs that after he noted Lich had multiple last names, David Cochrane, host of Power & Politics, allegedly responded that “people who live in trailers usually do.”
Travis Dhanraj's testimony to the Heritage Committee
"Chief political correspondent Rosemary Barton circulated internal communications questioning my program, copying senior leadership, insinuating she or Mr. Cochrane should have done the interview."
Blocks away from Manhattan federal court, a distraught fashion model sat on a street corner, wiping tears from her face and gesturing in disbelief as a family friend tried to console her.
Only moments earlier, Shani Zigron had sat in the gallery on Monday evening, watching as a jury sealed the fate of her husband, Alon Alexander, and his two real estate scion brothers, Oren and Tal, convicting them on all counts in a sprawling sex trafficking conspiracy dating back more than a decade.
The once high-flying siblings now face the possibility of life in prison.
“… The calls for leadership grow tiresome, having taken on a performative air of outrage without action. There can be no more bland pledges to oppose all forms of hate, or statements that disguise antisemitism as anti-Zionism. Real conviction is needed. It starts with political, police, business and religious leaders speaking loudly in a single voice, without equivocation, that antisemitism is wrong and will not be tolerated in our communities.”
Geist advocated for the import of Syrian refugees.
He now calls for “real conviction” from our elites to end antisemitism somehow forgetting that these same grandees opened the door to mass Islamist immigration, allowed our schools and universities to become extreme left indoctrination centres and continue to coddle the Mohammedans at every turn.
Guess what? The Muslims and the rest of the 3rd World the elites callously imported have no intention to listen to your imagined “Leaders”.
The average Canadian is not antisemitic but he sure despises the criminals responsible for immigration policy.
What’s happening today is the creation of our elites. Geist would be wise to open his eyes and point the blame at those who share the the bubble he lives in.
If anyone is unsure what the German columnist Rainer Zitelmann makes of Adolf Hitler, they need only to read the blurbs of his books on Nazi economic doctrine.
As well as calling Hitler “one of the greatest criminals in human history”, Zitelmann argues over more than 1,000 pages that the dictator was a fervent anti-capitalist who opposed everything that had made the West pleasant and prosperous.
The Liberal Party spent the last 11 years inviting the very worst culture on earth to settle here. You coddled them & rewarded their primitive cult hatred for votes. Now you’re trying to blame the social breakdown caused by the Liberal Party’s weaponized immigration policy on a…
OTTAWA – Prime Minister Mark Carney told MPs in the House of Commons Tuesday that Canada is not involved in the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran and “will never participate in it.”
The prime minister changed his schedule to attend Tuesday’s question period after being criticized for not answering to parliamentarians about Canada’s position on the war in Iran.
In the first 24 hours of Operation Epic Fury, the US military struck more than 1,000 targets in Iran with the help of artificial intelligence.
Given the rate of 42 suggested targets per hour, experts have asked whether machines are now in charge on the battlefield because the human brain cannot keep up.
They have raised the possibility that artificial intelligence may have misidentified the primary school in Minab on the first day of the war. Growing evidence suggests that the US fired what appears to have been Tomahawk cruise missiles at the site, killing 110 children and dozens of others.
Jury is still out on the school missile strike.
🚨Breaking question for everyone watching the Iran conflict closely…
Did Iran just hit its own school and then try to blame the United States?
Analysts reviewing the Minab strike video say the explosion pattern and munition profile do not match a Tomahawk cruise missile.… pic.twitter.com/WVTrL3SW7O
US military ‘completely destroys’ 16 Iranian mine-laying ships in Strait of Hormuz after Trump threatened Iran would be hit ‘at level never seen before’ if they place mines in the passage
American forces have destroyed 16 Iranian minelaying vessels close to a major sea passage used to export oil.
The White House had earlier warned Iran will be hit ‘at a level never seen before’ if they place mines on the Strait of Hormuz amid concerns the regime could target the key oil waterway.
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just announced: In the last few hours, U.S. forces have HIT and COMPLETELY DESTROYED 10 inactive Iranian mine-laying boats/ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

Most Albertans support Premier Danielle Smith’s immigration-related policy proposals, including a referendum question aimed at restricting non-permanent residents from accessing health care, education and other public services in the province, according to a new Postmedia-Leger poll.
A Toronto Police constable has been suspended following an arrest by Peel Regional Police on charges of assault and sexual assault.
“Farhan Ali, 39, has been arrested and charged” with “three counts of sexual assault, three counts of assault and four counts of mischief,” Peel cops said.
Being a sex fiend is actually a muslim religious thing.
In his first major sit-down from behind bars, the disgraced mogul fumes about life at Rikers (“I’m dying here”), his wrecked legacy and his delusions about the future (“I will be proven innocent. That I promise you”).
The day before I was to meet Harvey Weinstein, a blizzard dumped a foot of snow on New York, grinding the city to a halt. It seemed like an omen. Waking in my hotel the next morning, I half hoped that Rikers would be closed as well. Then my phone buzzed with a terse email from a prison administrator: “We’re on!” it said.
So, I called an Uber and nervously set off with a cameraman and a trunk full of recording equipment for the short voyage to Rikers, the notorious island facility in Queens where Weinstein has been incarcerated for much of the past six years.
Doug Ford raises concerns about ‘sleeper cells’ in wake of U.S. Consulate shooting
Premier Doug Ford says that the shooting of the U.S. Consulate in downtown Toronto is “absolutely unacceptable” and he is warning those responsible will “face the full extent of the law.”
Ford made the comment to reporters at Queen’s Park on Tuesday morning, hours after two suspects reportedly exited an SUV on University Avenue and proceeded to discharge at least one firearm at the exterior of the consulate building.
Oh.
Doug Ford, the Premier of Ontario, says that Islamic "sleeper cells" are active in Canada.
