Trudeau government quietly escalated Canada’s involvement in crisis by extending our cyber defence umbrella to Ukraine, Latvia after Russian invasion: report

The orders were signed on March 17, 2022, less than a month after Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

CBC must face WE Charity defamation lawsuit in a U.S. court, judge rules

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) must face a defamation lawsuit by a U.S. charity alleging the publicly funded news outlet repeatedly aired false claims that it deceived its donors, a Washington, D.C., federal judge has ruled.

U.S. District Judge Randolph D. Moss on Tuesday rejected the CBC’s bid to dismiss the case on the grounds that a Canadian court would be the more appropriate venue.

WE Charity, which once operated in Canada but is suing through its U.S. affiliate based in upstate New York, alleged in its February 2022 complaint that the CBC knowingly aired false claims that the nonprofit inflated the number of schoolhouses it had built in Kenya and deceived donors about how their money was being spent, among other things

France: Worst Riots In 20 Years

Video showed officer allegedly telling 17-year-old victim, ‘I’m going to put a bullet in your head’, before he shot him

Youths hurled fireworks and stones at police and torched cars on the fringes of a march in a Paris suburb in memory of a 17-year-old French-Algerian boy shot by police.

The youths disrupted the march, which was led by the teenager’s mother. She and most of the more than 6,000 people who were taking part dispersed after violence broke out, leaving the troublemakers to face armed and helmeted police. Palls of acrid black smoke rose from burning, overturned cars.

France will mobilise 40,000 police officers across the country this evening to deal with the protests.

Refugee who first fled Afghanistan then Trump’s America graduates U of T with goal to help others

… However, his stay in the U.S. didn’t last long. He arrived in the country in 2018, during the Donald Trump administration, and Malikyar said it “wasn’t a good idea for me to stay” because of the then-president’s anti-immigration agenda.

During his month-long stay in the U.S., Malikyar heard his hometown was under attack by the Taliban, so he reckoned his next best option would be to cross into Canada through Roxham Road and claim asylum. And so he did.

What horseshit.

Chasing the ‘Aldi effect’: Why it’s hard for discount grocers to break into Canada

But Charlebois also points the finger at the Competition Bureau, arguing its policing of the industry “devalues” Canada’s reputation as a good place to do business.

A push to bring more competition into the Canadian grocery sector in the form of discount European brands such as Aldi and Lidl would face steep obstacles in Canada’s fragmented marketplace, experts say.

The Competition Bureau’s probe into concentration among Canada’s grocers released Tuesday highlighted the role international competitors could play in lowering prices as food inflation continues to cause pain at the grocery store.

When you let Billionaires off with a slap on the wrist for a 14 year long price fixing grift foreign competion gets the message that the hometown Oligopolies rule in Canada.
