Sweden and the lethal complacency of the elites

It’s not racist to talk about the crisis of integration – it’s essential.

Are we allowed to talk about Sweden yet? Now that the Swedish army is being asked to help cops with a surge in gangland killings, can we ask if perhaps there is something rotten in the state of Sweden? For years the complacent technocracies of America and Europe said Sweden was fine. Only Trumpists and troublemakers would say otherwise. Now, following the PM’s announcement that he’s asking the army to use everything from its knowledge on ‘explosives’ to ‘helicopter logistics’ to help tackle an epidemic of gang crime, maybe these people will be roused from their Scandi-naïveté.

Poilievre defends Truth and Reconciliation Day post, calls criticism ‘appalling politicization’

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is defending the caption on photos he posted to social media on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation after Liberal cabinet minister Marc Miller accused him of misidentifying Inuit people as Algonquin.

On Saturday, Poilievre posted two photos to X, formerly Twitter, of himself meeting with three Inuit people wearing traditional clothing, with the caption that he was “honoured to join the Algonquin Elders and leaders at the eternal flame to mark National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.”

The Liberals really tried to make this worse than Hitler.

Joly says Canadians ‘want to do more’ to help Haiti as military intervention looms

OTTAWA – Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada is determining how it can best help with an international military intervention in Haiti, but a fellow Liberal MP says it’s unlikely that will involve any military role for Canada.

“Canada has always been involved in issues related to Haiti. We will continue to be,” Joly told reporters Tuesday morning on Parliament Hill, in French.

Haiti is irredeemably awful. Must be a lot of easy money to be had playing white savior.

Roxham Road is closed. So why are asylum claims still on the rise?

In March, Washington and Ottawa agreed to close Roxham Road, the small alley in Quebec through which thousands of asylum seekers have entered Canada from the United States, bypassing customs. Nearly 40,000 people entered Canada through Roxham Road in 2022; there were a record 91,710 claimants last year.

So despite the closing, why has Canada already processed more than 80,000 applications from asylum seekers so far this year?

Governor General Spent Over $117,000 on Dry Cleaning Since 2018: Taxpayer’s Federation

Gov. Gen. Mary Simon has spent over $117,000 on dry cleaning since 2018, according to records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF).

“When I spill half the Pizza Hut lunch buffet on my white work shirt, I don’t stick the company I work for with the dry-cleaning bill, and neither should the governor general,” said CTF Federal Director Franco Terrazzano in a release. “This is another perk the governor general enjoys that struggling Canadians can’t afford.”

How in Hell is that even possible? Who owns her preferred dry cleaner?

From the Great Replacement to Great Turmoil

If the most dramatic change brought by mass migration is seen in European ethno-cultural identity, the most concrete, immediate, and undeniable consequence is the rise in violence and crime

At the height of Rome’s power, Emperor Augustus (63 BC-14 AD) discovered that Roman families were no longer having children. The Pax Romana had led to a drastic drop in the Roman birth rate. Despite the Emperor’s efforts, this decline in the birth rate could not be halted. This period was the first of three phases in the fall of Rome.

Senator Meghan Markle? Thank goodness it didn’t happen. It must not

Conventional wisdom would suggest that a divisive, high-handed former actress with a failed record of public service in Britain and no legislative experience would be an unlikely candidate to serve in the highly respected US Senate. Not to mention the fact that the actress has earned the just opprobrium of America’s strongest ally for having vilified one of its most deeply respected institutions. But in Joe Biden’s America, where virtue signaling and identity characteristics are the chief selection qualities for office – and competence is an afterthought – Meghan Markle seems a likely candidate for high office.

Companies have been quick to pass higher costs on to customers, BoC finds

Bank of Canada deputy governor Nicolas Vincent says businesses are still raising their prices more frequently and by larger amounts than they did before the pandemic, which is contributing to higher-than-expected inflation.

Vincent made the comments in his first speech as deputy governor today to the Chamber of Commerce of Metropolitan Montreal.

According to his prepared remarks, Vincent says the Bank of Canada believes that higher-than-expected inflation over the last year is “intimately linked” to larger and more frequent price increases from businesses.

Ukraine’s Victory Over Russia Will Benefit Western Security

Ukraine’s counteroffensive to liberate territory occupied by Russia may be taking longer than expected, but the central goal of inflicting a devastating defeat on Moscow remains imperative if other autocratic regimes like China are to be deterred from initiating future acts of bellicosity.

Since the Ukrainians launched their counter-offensive in the summer, their forces have made slow but steady progress in recapturing territory occupied by the Russians after President Vladimir Putin launched his unprovoked invasion last year.
