Leftist MEPs Ridicule Migrant Gang Victims in Parliament

The European Parliament’s leftist majority continued to downplay the security risks brought by the mass influx of illegal migration during Wednesday’s key plenary debate on the Migration Pact in Strasbourg (October 4th), with some going as far as laughing when conservatives presented Europe’s worsening crime statistics.

Reaching an agreement on the EU’s flagship Asylum and Migration Pact is without doubt currently the highest priority on Brussels’ agenda as all institutions are racing to get it done in the next few months or risk losing grip of it altogether amid next year’s European elections.

Indigenous women, girls killed at rate six times higher than non-Indigenous: StatCan

OTTAWA – A new Statistics Canada report says homicides of Indigenous women and girls are less likely to result in the most serious murder charges than cases in which victims were non-Indigenous.

More than half of cases involving non-Indigenous women and girls between 2009 and 2021 resulted in charges of first-degree murder, but the offences of second-degree murder and manslaughter were more common when the victim was Indigenous.

StatCan says during that time period, Indigenous women and girls were killed at a rate six times higher than that of women and girls who were not Indigenous.

Rev. Calvin Robinson wins settlement after he was ‘canceled’ for opposing drag queen story hour

Rev. Calvin Robinson has won an out of court settlement after being cancelled by the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) for opposing ‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ for children.

The Iranian influence campaign went further than many realize

The evidence that Iranian officials ran an influence operation that penetrated the State and Defense departments is damning. Not only did Iranian American academics and think tankers meet with Iranian officials, but leaked emails suggest they also took direction from them. Not only financial gain motivates espionage; ideological solidarity motivated some of the most damaging spies in American history.

While the Biden administration seeks to downplay the scandal, more than 30 senators now demand the Pentagon suspend and review the security clearance of Ariane Tabatabai, one of the members of the so-called Iran Experts Initiative, now in a sensitive Pentagon position.

You can’t help but wonder how complicit Ottawa is in this.
