A disturbing new investigation detailing the expansion of Beijing’s overseas influence infrastructure reveals there are now more than 2,000 organizations in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany that the Chinese Communist Party is capable of mobilizing to advance its agenda.
President Donald Trump’s move to revoke the endangerment finding lit a fire under leaders around the globe, who are lashing out and criticizing the decision to ignore the “scientific backbone” for regulating greenhouse gases.
They scream catastrophe, while overlooking massive coal expansions in the other nations that dwarf America’s emissions. Critics call Trump’s decision a death sentence for the planet, but spare the real giants pumping out pollution without pause.
Frustrated Toronto residents are angry that the city is cracking down on parking in snow removal zones — even though some streets remain choked with piles of ice more than two weeks after the storm.
“This is not about snow removal — this is about money,” said Mimi Dinolfo, a store owner on College Street near Bathurst who’s received four $100 tickets since the blizzard at the end of January, when the city declared its second major snow emergency, making main roads like College illegal to park on.
“We took the snow out of in front of our stores,” said Dinolfo, who has fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis and has to regularly park near her store.
@MayorOliviaChow loves preaching 'inclusivity' from her cozy office, but Toronto's sidewalks are still ice rinks & snow mountains weeks after the storm. 🧊❄️ how can Elderly folks & anyone with mobility issues move around this city? So much for 'progressive' leadership when… pic.twitter.com/JTzCy1ApMm

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky insisted “no one is clinging to power” and he is ready to hold national elections, but insists there will be no vote without a ceasefire and solid security guarantees from the U.S., making a vote any time soon unlikely.
It’s not been a pleasant season thus far for the Oshawa Generals, either in the standings or in the stands, apparently.
But in an effort to address an unseemly smell emanating from the stands, team officials reportedly sent out an email to their season ticket-holders, asking them to shower before home games after repeated complaints about a stench coming from the stands.
It’s hard to prove a connection, but easy to use your common sense on this one.
Changes in SNAP benefits and making people reapply after the government shutdown seem to have had a dramatic effect on the market for certain types of goods.
A highly regarded theoretical physicist is stepping away from the Ontario institute he helped found, after his ties to the late American sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were revealed in recently released files.
Lee Smolin, an American Canadian professor of physics and philosophy, has “agreed to pause his working relationship” with the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ont., according to an email on Thursday from Perimeter’s executive director, Marcela Carena.
The Army is investing heavily in a strategy that will team soldiers with autonomous drones on the battlefield, with the goal of leveraging next-generation technology to save American lives, the U.S. Army’s chief technology officer said in an exclusive interview.
The service is searching for ways to fundamentally change how soldiers fight and win future wars. At the heart of that is a push for replaceable, smart technology — such as autonomous robots — to move ahead of human soldiers in the most dangerous situations. Army CTO Alex Miller said the Army’s top priorities include developing drone technology for overcoming battlefield obstacles, resupplying troops under attack, and evacuating wounded soldiers from the front lines.
The Supreme Court of Canada annulled the results of a closely contested riding from last spring’s election on Friday.
The Montreal-area riding of Terrebonne was initially declared for the Bloc Québécois until a judicial recount found the Liberals had won the seat by one vote.
But Nathalie Sinclair-Desgagné, the Bloc candidate, called on the courts to annul the results and call a new election after CBC News reported that a voter had their mail-in ballot returned to them due to a misprint on the return envelope.
The CBC can’t seem to bring itself to say that the Liberal is tossed and a byelection will now have to take place.
The Arizona sheriff leading the local investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s mysterious disappearance contradicted claims he withheld key evidence in the case from the FBI.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said that contrary to reports, the FBI “agreed” with him that the evidence should be sent to a Florida lab for DNA analysis, instead of handing it over to the federal agency’s crime lab. The reports suggested the FBI disagreed with the decision to send gloves and other evidence to the private lab, but Nanos said after having a conversation on the best path forward, the agency was on board with the move. The claims that the sheriff’s office is thwarting the investigation in a power struggle are “not even close to the truth,” he told KVOA.
Recent attention has focused on Greenland as a focal point of Arctic strategy, a reminder that geography once treated as peripheral now sits squarely within the logic of continental defense. A similar shift is unfolding elsewhere in the Arctic, though with far less public notice. The Northwest Passage—the network of sea routes threading Canada’s Arctic Archipelago between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans—has moved from a seasonal curiosity to a corridor of growing strategic consequence. As activity increases, questions long treated as theoretical, including the legal status of those waters, are being pushed toward practical resolution.
Jeffrey Epstein was strangled, not hanged in his New York prison cell, according to a doctor present at his post-mortem.
Dr Michael Baden has called for the cause of the paedophile’s death to be reinvestigated, almost seven years after he was found unresponsive at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on August 10, 2019.
He is unconvinced by the conclusion of the New York Medical Examiner’s Office that the American millionaire took his own life while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
DOJ surveillance footage shows an orange figure walking up the stairs to Jeffrey Epstein’s cell—the last movement seen before his body was found the next morning.
The figure is believed to be someone wearing an orange inmate jumpsuit.

Eight innocents were shot dead in B.C.’s northeastern community of Tumbler Ridge on Tuesday; a girl is fighting for her life in hospital, and two dozen more have been injured. This tragedy is one of the worst ever seen in Canadian history — and as it unfolded, police gave the public incorrect information and did not correct themselves afterward.
“Suspect described as female in a dress with brown hair,” read the emergency alert notifying residents of the school shooter, who was later found dead.
RCMP Deputy Commissioner McDonald identifies Jesse Strang (Van Rootslaar), the 18-year-old trans shooter in Tumbler Ridge, BC as "female" then says the killer was "born a biological male" when pressed.
Not properly describing the shooter may have cost lives.

Switzerland will hold a referendum on whether to cap the country’s population at 10 million.
The “No to 10 million Switzerland” initiative was put forward by the right-wing, anti-immigration Swiss People’s Party (SVP).
The proposal has received enough signatures to be put to a vote, the government said on Wednesday, and it will go to the ballot box on June 14.
