As part of his trip to Beijing last month, Prime Minister Mark Carney met with Zhao Leji, the third-ranking member of the 20th Chinese Communist Party Politburo and chair of the standing committee of the National People’s Congress.
The readout that emerged from the meeting said they talked about the importance of ongoing parliamentary exchanges and “opportunities for enhanced understanding and communication” between the two countries.
A Green Party councillor is facing a backlash after announcing she will be delivering Valentine’s Day cards to asylum seekers – and taking her grandchildren with her.
Anne Cross announced that she and her grandchildren had created cards and would take them to the controversial Crowborough Training Camp this weekend.
The East Sussex County councillor encouraged locals to participate in upcoming volunteering opportunities and hear the stories of those in the camp.
A foreign national is facing charges linked to what Canada’s border agency is labelling the largest narcotics seizure in the history of British Columbia’s Abbotsford-Huntingdon port of entry.
Canadian border guards caught a man attempting to smuggle a “significant amount” of methamphetamine from the United States at the B.C. crossing last November, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) said in a Feb. 10 press release this week to announce the charges.
When I was 11, I began identifying as transgender. I had gone down a rabbit hole of websites and niche online forums. There I met a friend—an artist who was 14—whom I admired and looked up to.
We both felt different, out of place in society. Born 10 years earlier, we would have been called tomboys. Instead, we writhed under the pressure of the “female role.” The internet told us the logical conclusion of that struggle was to identify as boys.
I come from a broken home. While my mother and stepfather always loved me, my stepfather became severely disabled when I was 3, leaving me feeling as though I had to raise myself. I eventually reached out to my biological father around a decade later. When he and my stepmother saw my distress—and were told by a psychiatrist that this distress was related to my transgender identity—they began to consider the benefits of affirming me in my transition.

Muslim terror attacks are now run of the mill events. Remigration now.
Tonight we take a hard look at Prime Minister Mark Carney’s ambitions for Canada’s national defence. Over the past several months, the Prime Minister has spoken forcefully about living in a world of predatory great powers, about rebuilding the Canadian Armed Forces, strengthening NATO commitments, and dramatically increasing defence spending — even doubling it by 2030.
When non-Americans think about the United States and immigration, they are inevitably reminded of the title of John F. Kennedy’s 1958 book A Nation of Immigrants. Indeed, the history of America is closely intertwined with migration, which has fundamentally and repeatedly reshaped the demographic and political make-up of the country. Equally intertwined is the debate over migration, which continues to dominate public discussion in the United States—as evidenced by President Trump’s re-election on the cornerstone issue of illegal immigration.
Why are so many Canadians so docile and spineless, uncomplaining when the actions of the federal governments are costing them their liberties and standard of living?
Under the Mark Carney government, Canada lost 25,000 jobs in January.

James E. Staley, who recently stepped down as the chief executive of Barclay’s in the wake of allegations involving his ties to Mr. Epstein, emailed Mr. Epstein in 2014 to suggest that upper-caste Americans like themselves were unlikely to ever face a populist uprising like the protests taking place in Brazil at the time.
Pointing to Super Bowl ads that year, Mr. Staley wrote: “Its all about hip blacks in hip cars with white women. The group that should be in the streets, has been bought off. By Jay-Z.”
Journalists and researchers will spend the next months ferreting through the Epstein files in search of further criminal conduct or a new conspiratorial wrinkle. But one truth has already emerged.
In unsparing detail, the documents lay bare the once-furtive activities of an unaccountable elite, largely made up of rich and powerful men from business, politics, academia and show business. The pages tell a story of a heinous criminal given a free ride by the ruling class in which he dwelled, all because he had things to offer them: money, connections, sumptuous dinner parties, a private plane, a secluded island and, in some cases, sex.
That story of impunity is all the more outrageous now in the midst of rising populist anger and ever-growing inequality. The Caligula-like antics of Jeffrey Epstein and friends occurred over two decades that saw the decline of America’s manufacturing sector and the subprime mortgage crisis, in which millions of Americans lost their homes.

On Tuesday afternoon, Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, grabbed two firearms from her home and, the authorities in British Columbia said, killed her mother and 11-year-old brother. Then she traveled a mile to the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and killed five students and one educator before turning her weapon on herself.
The mass shooting, which also left two children injured with gunshot wounds, has sent shock waves across Canada, where such violence is rare, and has devastated the small rural community of 2,400 people.
An investigation of Ms. Van Rootselaar’s online life offers a chronicle of a young person’s gradual descent into mental health crises and radicalization into extreme violence.
Major US studios have demanded that a powerful new AI video tool, launched by TikTok’s Chinese owner ByteDance, must “immediately cease” infringing copyright with its clips based on existing films and shows.
Many of the clips are based on real actors, TV shows and films, and the Motion Picture Association told the BBC: “In a single day, the Chinese AI service Seedance 2.0 has engaged in unauthorised use of US copyrighted works on a massive scale.”
The MPA represents the major US studios – Netflix, Paramount Pictures, Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios, Sony Pictures, Universal Studios, The Walt Disney Studios and Warner Bros Discovery.
Hollywood is in big trouble as a decentralization of industry power to new players will likely result.
Chinese company ByteDance released its latest AI model, “Seedance 2.0,” just 48 hours ago.

OTTAWA – A new study published Friday by the Canadian Climate Institute says Canada is not on track to meet any of its climate targets — not the 2026 interim emissions reduction target, the 2030 Paris Agreement commitment, or even the long-term goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.
The report suggests Canada has moved away from its climate goals thanks to “a slackening of policy effort over the past year, marked by the removal or weakening of climate policies across the country.”
Guess who wrote the report.
We found another headquarters for the Canadian Climate Institute, registered at 192 Spadina Ave., Suite 316, in Toronto.
This “charity” received $30,000,000 from the federal government, yet CRA filings show zero dollars allocated to charity work.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower made an important observation about finding answers to difficult questions. “Whenever I run into a problem I can’t solve,” the five-star general reportedly remarked, “I always make it bigger. I can never solve it by trying to make it smaller, but if I make it big enough, I can begin to see the outlines of a solution.”
