China jails top Uyghur scholar for life after secret trial
A prominent Uyghur academic who was a visiting scholar at the University of Cambridge has been sentenced to life in prison amid China’s crackdown on the ethnic muslim minority.
Rahile Dawut is a world-renowned scholar of Uyghur studies, having appeared at some of the world’s most prestigious universities to discuss Uyghur folklore and cultural traditions.
It’s important to remember that Justin Trudeau rushed to “normalize relations” with the Communist Chinese slave state after our own hostages were freed.
The CSIS leaks were undertaken to derail the sniveling little prick’s goal.
Is it any wonder Trudeau launched his own efforts to criminalize dissent in Canada?
China is his admired dictatoriship for a reason.

Incendiary rhetoric on Sikh’s murder stokes debate in Canada diaspora
A row between Canada and India over the murder of a Sikh separatist has stoked talk of political friction among some Sikhs and Hindus in the diaspora, though others say it’s overblown.
After Mr Trudeau’s public accusation on Monday that India may have been behind the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil, a clip surfaced on social media showing the head of a US-based Sikh separatist group calling for Hindu Canadians to return to India.
“Indo-Canadian Hindus, you have repudiated your allegiance to Canada and the Canadian constitution,” said Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, head of Sikhs for Justice, in a video that was reportedly filmed on 12 September.
“Your destination is India. Leave Canada. Go to India,” he said.
Pope Francis calls on Europe to welcome migrants
Pope Francis on Saturday rejected the notion of a migrant ’emergency’ in Europe during a speech in Marseille, France.
“Those who risk their lives at sea do not invade, they look for welcome,” Francis said during a church conference in the southern Mediterranean port city.
He added that migration is “a reality of our times, a process that involves three continents around the Mediterranean and that must be governed with wise foresight, including a European response.”
No words.

Government’s secret UFO dump: Border security quietly releases tranche of 10 videos of mysterious ‘craft’ whizzing around US skies
A tranche of UFO videos — including never-before-seen footage — has been quietly released by federal law enforcement.
US Customs and Border Protection, the agency responsible for keeping terrorists and their weapons out of the country, uploaded 10 videos that appear to show craft moving in strange ways in our skies.
The videos were released on August 9 without warning, a press release or much in the way of context, only to be discovered by UFO enthusiasts and online sleuths earlier this week.
Here’s the link to the video dump.

Stop seeing immigration as a get-rich-quick scheme for Canada’s economy
Immigration is neither as good for Canada as recent federal government pronouncements would suggest nor as bad as some critics might claim. The best economic evidence suggests that, in the long run, immigration has limited impact on the average Canadian’s wages or job prospects. Immigration boosts the economy, but it increases our population, too, leaving the average Canadian’s living standards more or less unchanged.
Yet these long-run averages mask the fact that specific policies create winners and losers. A government that ignores the fact that immigration can have costs risks making two mistakes. First, it might uncritically accept the arguments made by those who stand to benefit from immigration. Second, if it does not take the downside risks of specific immigration policies seriously, it might not act to mitigate them.
Fury as ZERO children at 13 Baltimore state schools pass math exam
A slate of Baltimore schools have sparked outrage after zero students passed their state math exams – with almost 75 percent testing at the lowest possible score.
The poor performances came in the latest round of Maryland’s state testing, where 13 high schools in the city – a staggering 40 percent – failed to produce a single student with a ‘proficient’ score in math.
I bet they all know there are 78 genders though.
Anthony Furey: Here’s the Problem With Gender Ideology in the Classroom
Last fall, the Toronto District School Board sent out an alarming survey that students were expected to complete. It was described as a census, but the questions it included went beyond the scope of what most people would consider a typical census.
The document became controversial and was temporarily shelved by the TDSB. A National Post headline covering the controversy described it as a “race-based student census,” which was a reasonable phrase to use because there were many questions focused on race.
Left-Wing German Minister Proposes Refugee Voting Rights
Germany’s left-wing Interior Minister Nancy Faeser has suggested extending the right to vote to foreigners in local elections, including those who may only have been in the country for as little as six months.

Project Veritas was never going to outlast James O’Keefe
In the tempestuous landscape of American political journalism, few organisations stirred up as much controversy as Project Veritas. Founded in 2010 by James O’Keefe, the group rose to prominence for its undercover investigations, notably the 2009 video recordings involving ACORN workers which were edited to imply they were giving advice on how to engage in criminal activities.
‘Very messy’: India-Canada row over Sikh killing causes diplomatic shock waves
Experts say if India was behind Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s death it would signal radical change in its foreign intelligence methods
The sun was setting on a June evening as Hardeep Singh Nijjar walked across the car park of the gurdwara. Nijjar’s day job was as a plumber but this gurdwara, located in the city of Surrey, in Canada’s British Columbia province, was where he dedicated most of his energy. That day he had made an impassioned speech about the fight for an independent, safe state for Sikhs.
But as he reached his pickup truck, two heavy-set, masked gunmen lay in wait. Shots rang out across the car park and Nijjar, killed instantly, crumpled to the ground as the suspects fled – first on foot and then in a getaway car.
Thirty days of Pride and lessons on white supremacy: inside Whitehall’s woke training regime
The extent to which radical gender and race ideology is imposed on the Civil Service has been laid bare by a dossier of internal communications leaked to The Telegraph.
Staff in Government departments are being taught about gender ideology, which affirms the idea that people can choose their gender, while those with legally protected gender critical beliefs, who believe that you cannot change your biological sex, say they are bullied into silence.
Poll reveals Canadian trans policies that are out of step with public opinion
As duelling protests took place in Canadian cities over the issue of gender ideology in schools, a new survey from the Angus Reid Institute revealed that most Canadians support a middle ground: They favour equality and accommodation for trans people, but generally don’t believe men can self-identify as women.
