Just what is happening to this country?
The Calgary city council has approved a bylaw amendment that will fine pro-life groups up to $3,000 if they distribute uncensored images of aborted babies to people’s homes.
Now the city wants to hide and censor those pictures and further cancel the pro-life protesters.
What happens when an unstoppable progressive force meets an immovable progressive wall? Apologies, for starters. Once again, Canada, America’s nutty neo-fascist neighbor to the north, has broken new ground in Leftist weirdness. As you know all too well at this point, it is Pride month here, there, and everywhere. And Canada is no exception. The current ruling class of Canucks has never met a progressive mantra it didn’t enthusiastically embrace. But unlike a certain brand of peanut butter cups whose name I cannot mention, sometimes two great tastes don’t go great together.
It’s quite the bombshell. It’s a 77-page investigative report on Beijing’s influence operations in Canada’s democratic institutions. It examines the Chinese Communist Party’s sinister engagements with this country’s political processes, universities, civil society, corporate sector, Chinese-language news media and social media.
Rich in documentary evidence and fact-based analysis, the report also relies on expert advice and named informants, except in cases where the security of individuals and entities would be put at risk. It’s titled Murky Waters: Beijing’s Influence in Canadian Democratic and Electoral Processes.

California lawmakers want the state’s public pensions to get rid of fossil fuel stocks, claiming that will help save the planet. Who are they trying to kid?
Eleven years ago, the prominent climate activist Bill McKibben wrote an article for Rolling Stone magazine in which he acknowledged that decades of effort to slow global warming had been largely ineffective, and proposed a new tactic: divestment.
Taking his inspiration from the divestment campaign that preceded the abolition of apartheid in South Africa, McKibben called on institutions that managed money to sell their shares in fossil fuel companies. He quoted Bob Massie, an investor who had been active in the anti-apartheid campaign, as saying, “Given the severity of the climate crisis, a comparable demand that our institutions dump stock from companies that are destroying the planet would not only be appropriate but effective.” McKibben soon founded a grassroots organization, 350.org, that made fossil fuel divestment one of its primary goals.

And Équité, a not-for-profit organization that assists in insurance fraud and crime investigations, expects the losses to continue to climb.

Parent company Discovery said “things did not work out the way we had hoped”.
India feels a giant demon breathing on her shoulder.
The more China strengthens its military and economic power, the more threatened India feels. The main reason is China’s aggressive actions along the China-India border, known as the Line of Actual Control. India and China share a de facto border of 3,440 km in total — containing rivers, lakes and snowcaps at high altitudes.
A top London state school has introduced a ban on pupils using the titles “sir” or “miss” to address headteachers, arguing the terms are “deeply unequal”.
James Handscombe, executive principal at Harris Westminster Sixth Form and Harris Clapham Sixth Form, said the school would require students to call teachers by their names to avoid “cultural misogyny”.

President Biden’s dramatic fall at the Air Force Academy commencement underlined a dangerous theme for Democrats: Joe Biden is too old to serve another full term, until he’s 86. He’s already struggling at 80.

On Sunday, The Times tippy-toed into the Biden problem in a front-page article titled “Spry Diplomat with Stiff Gait: Aging Leader’s Complex Reality.”

Brad Bradford had to cancel his attendance as he and his wife were at a hospital for the birth of their second child.
Destruction of the reservoir will seriously complicate any plans to cross the Dnipro as part of the summer offensive
The destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam is a shock. But it should not have been a surprise.
For the Russians – an army on the defensive, expecting an imminent attack, and unbothered by collateral damage – it makes plenty of sense.
For the Ukrainians, it will seriously complicate any plans to cross the Dnipro as part of the summer offensive for two reasons.

There wasn’t much chance going in that David Johnston was going to win over MPs reviewing his report on foreign interference. And when he left, he hadn’t provided much reassurance for Canadians that he got to the bottom of things.
The government’s special rapporteur on foreign interference had to expect that his appearance at a Commons committee would bring more questions about his impartiality, and those of his staff. And it did.
Trudeau asked a fellow member of Canada’s China Class to whitewash their entanglement with the Communist Regime.
