Sabrina Maddeaux: Liberal ‘visionary’ housing plan = young people still screwed
You read it here first: a thrilling announcement of epic proportions! An idea no Canadian newspaper has dared fathom until now. It’s entirely new; absolutely game changing. Prepare to be wowed.
Here it is: the National Post will continue to print columns on a daily basis. Our brand colour will continue to be yellow.
This is more or less the equivalent of what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Housing Minister Sean Fraser announced this Wednesday, just hours after Fraser teased unprecedented measures to tackle the housing crisis. That morning, he told media, “Today’s going to be the first time we’ve done something like this in Canada.”
WTF?

Orwell would loathe today’s left
He slammed the bourgeois intellectuals of his day for their intolerance and insularity. Sound familiar?
I recently re-read George Orwell’s 1941 essay, The Lion and the Unicorn: Socialism and the English Genius, and I was taken by his description of the bourgeois, left-leaning intelligentsia of his time. They live in the shallowness of ideas, he writes, severed from the common culture and life experiences of the working class. They spend most of their time bickering with their chief enemy, the equally bourgeois ‘Blimps’ – archetypal red-faced imperialists. Though they despise each other, both the bourgeois intelligentsia and the Blimps are united in their mutual disdain for the working class.
What’s the ADL Got to Do With Antisemitism?
The organization’s behavior strikes as profoundly creepy.
“The issue I think with the ADL is not a question of hate speech,” Elon Musk said told the All-In conference this week. “It’s not a question of antisemitism, obviously. It’s that the ADL and a lot of other organizations have become activist organizations, which are acting far beyond their stated mandate or their original mandate.”
Musk largely attributes the decline in X’s U.S. revenue to the Anti-Defamation League’s pressuring corporations and organizations to not advertise there.

Recent litigation points to parents’ rising frustrations with gender and sexuality curricula in public schools.
With active litigation on both coasts embroiling school districts in controversies over gender and sexuality issues, this academic year promises major battles in American public education.
First came a decision from the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, which reviewed a Maryland case in which parents challenged Montgomery County Public Schools’ “Guidelines for Gender Identity.” The guidelines feature a “gender support plan for students,” which includes “affirming” a child’s preferred name, pronouns, and other gender-related preferences, and authorizes schools to “withhold information about the plans from parents if the school deems the parents to be unsupportive.” Under longstanding Supreme Court doctrine that gives parents a constitutional right to raise their children, the parents sued.
Workers at Detroit’s big three auto firms General Motors, Ford and Stellantis strike in battle for 40% pay increase and a four-day work week
About 13,000 US auto workers at Detroit’s big three firms stopped making vehicles and went on strike Friday after their leaders couldn´t bridge a giant gap between union demands and automakers in contract talks.
The United Auto Workers (UAW) union’s labor contract with Detroit’s big three automakers expired at 11.59pm on Thursday, with it is demanding a 40 per cent pay rise for its 146,000 members over four years and a four-day work week not met.
Automakers have countered with offers that are roughly half of that increase. Starting workers are currently paid around $18.04 an hour.
Syria on the Verge of Collapse?
Syria is clearly on the verge of collapse in terms of the economy and humanitarian situation.
The country’s southern province of al-Suwayda’, whose population primarily comes from the Druze minority, is currently witnessing protests on an unprecedented scale. While the province has previously seen protests motivated primarily by the country’s deteriorating economic and livelihood situation, these protests are now far more widespread in the province and larger in scale.

Canada Teaches MDs to Become Killing Specialists
The Hippocratic oath explicitly prohibits doctor participation in euthanasia/assisted suicide. But doctors don’t take the great oath anymore, precisely because (in part) it conflicts with modern sensibilities that doctors can be ethical takers of human life.

Still no date for Canada’s retail gun buyback as amnesty deadline nears
The group the federal government called “the primary source of information for industry” in the retail-banned firearm buyback says it still does not know when the program will begin.
This comes as the amnesty on banned firearms is set to expire on Oct. 30.
I hear they’re working on a racialized gun owner exemption for urban thugs.

Stop supporting Palestinian terrorism
Sept. 11 came and went this week as little more than an afterthought. Addressing concerns about terrorism is no longer in vogue, especially in this country. Yet the date when 2,977 innocent women and men were killed in New York’s Twin Towers, the Pentagon and on four airliners serves as a yearly reminder of the devastating consequences of terrorism.
