Newly appointed federal Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc says that calling a judicial inquiry into foreign interference in Canada’s elections by the Beijing regime is “complicated.”
Mr. LeBlanc, who was given the new portfolio while retaining intergovernmental affairs, made the comments shortly after being appointed to his new position in a cabinet shuffle on July 26.
A Texas mom was caught in harrowing video using her 14-year-old daughter as a “human shield” after a high-speed police chase — and even shouting at cops to “shoot” them, according to officials.
Houston-area police initially thought theft suspect Tenescha Selena Henry, 35, was holding a crying hostage in a chokehold during the July 20 standoff and were shocked that the girl was actually her daughter.
Hundreds of shelter beds city council opened up to temporarily house refugee claimants less than two weeks ago are already full, and the cash-strapped municipality has nowhere to put asylum seekers sleeping in crowded conditions at two local churches, according to Mayor Olivia Chow.
Chow made the remarks Friday after touring the Revivaltime Tabernacle Church in North York, where for more than a week more than 100 asylum seekers have been living in close quarters.
The idiots who voted for Trudeau and the idiots who voted for Chow are the same idiots.
That’s why Toronto is rapidly becoming a progressive shithole.
President Joe Biden has acknowledged the four-year-old grandchild Hunter had with Lunden Roberts.
In a statement to People, the president said: ‘Our son Hunter and Navy’s mother, Lunden, are working together to foster a relationship that is in the best interests of their daughter, preserving her privacy as much as possible going forward’.
‘This is not a political issue, it’s a family matter,’ Biden’s statement continues. ‘Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy.’
The Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF) is reportedly sending nearly 300 members to the upcoming World Police and Fire Games (WPFG), sparking concerns among China watchers.
As reported by Vancouver Is Awesome, an anonymous duty officer from the public relations wing of the HKPF revealed that 287 members are being dispatched to Winnipeg for the event slated to take place from July 28 to Aug. 6.
Most of the 667 fires that have erupted across Greece in recent weeks were started “by human hand”, the country’s senior climate crisis official has said.
As the Mediterranean country emerges from an unprecedented, 15-day period of heatwave-induced infernos, the scale of the destruction is finally being laid bare.
While weather conditions have been different from any other year – with experts calling the first three weeks of July the hottest on record – most of the fires could have been prevented, the government claimed on Friday.
Since I’ve been complaining about our national myopia on matters of economic growth and productivity, let me give you a timely example. Consider two fresh news items pegged to an announcement of quarterly financials by the supermarket giant Loblaw: one for Yahoo written by Financial Post alumna Alicja Siekerska, and one for the CBC by Sophia Harris.
Ottawa lawyer James Bowie, already under indefinite suspension for unrelated professional misconduct last year, has again been suspended by the Law Society of Ontario for not fully co-operating with its legal-services-for-sex investigation.
A willful determination to enforce a transformation on this scale, regardless of what markets signal, consumers want, and manufacturers can produce, is an invitation to disaster.
A NEW phenomenon is sweeping the digital stratosphere – the movie double bill of Oppenheimer and Barbie, kitschily named on social media ‘Barbenheimer’.
A film about as grim a subject as the invention and deployment of the first atomic bomb seems a strange pairing with the story of a pink-clad plastic doll whose goal is to empower women. Barbie, manufactured by Mattel, has seen her status bolstered under licensing and distribution deals with the entertainment conglomerate Warner Brothers and an array of global brands including Chanel, showcasing their out-of-reach (to us mere mortals) products in almost every scene.
According to Alternet, that august purveyor of unbiased scientific information, climate change is ruining our sex lives.
Beijing was helped by a cabal of conspiring scientists
“What happened to Oppenheimer damaged our ability as a society to debate honestly about scientific theory,” wrote Kai Bird, author of the biography on which Christopher Nolan’s new film is based. “Yet too many of our citizens still distrust scientists and fail to understand the scientific quest, the trial and error inherent in testing any theory against facts by experimenting. Just look at what happened to our public health civil servants during the recent pandemic.”
In my day, teens stuck Athena posters of pop idols on their bedroom walls. Nowadays, most young people are too busy basking in the blue light of tablets and phones to get the Blu Tack out. But if today’s young people are searching for someone new on YouTube to ‘share’, ‘like’ and ‘follow’, they could do worse than Sinéad O’Connor.
Well she was rebellious, unfortunately self destructively so. Such a sad end for her and us all. 56. Far too soon.
Life is so good that, according to various box office projections, the groomers at Disney have just released another expensive flop into theaters.
This flop is called Haunted Mansion (2023). It cost a whopping $150 million to produce. Once you add in promotion costs, you’re looking at a $225 to $250 million investment that’s about to open somewhere between—lol—$25 and $30 million.
Haunted Mansion also feels like the most Disney movie ever. Get this… It’s a remake of a 2003 movie based on a theme park ride.
The head of the Pentagon’s UFO office has slammed Wednesday’s shocking congressional hearing in which three whistleblowers claimed they had firsthand encounters or knowledge about secret government programs involving technology that is ‘non-human.’
Sean Kirkpatrick issued a statement Friday denying some of the witnesses’ claims – drawing a fiery rebuke from lawmakers.
The dubiously immoral, slimy wordplay coming from Dr. Kirkpatrick over the most important issue in history is on another level.

Ryan Graves calls for clarity on UAP classification guidelines.
