Saskatoon parents are protesting after a man who identified as a female repeatedly walked around naked in the girls changing room during young children’s swimming lesson times at the Shaw Centre.
The protest happened at Saskatoon City Hall on Saturday and had about 25 people at it in the frigid weather. And they vow they will be back next Saturday at 2 pm.
A Manhattan federal judge on Wednesday ordered accused crypto schemer Sam Bankman-Fried not to contact any current or ex-employees of FTX, his former digital currency company, while he is out on bail in the sprawling fraud case.
Judge Lewis Kaplan issued the order at the request of federal prosecutors and will hear arguments from Bankman-Fried’s attorneys about the restrictions during a hearing on Feb. 7.
In a letter to Kaplan, prosecutors revealed that Bankman-Fried sent a message to FTX’s current general counsel on the encrypted messaging app Signal weeks after he was indicted in Manhattan federal court.
This was a blatant attempt to influence a witness, Sammy must still think he is untouchable.
If you’ve missed the news out of Atlanta recently, over the past few months, Antifa-aligned activists have occupied the site of a former prison farm where the city plans on building a public training facility.
Authorities have arrested over a dozen of these Antifa goons and charged them with domestic terrorism. The group — largely from out of town and overloaded with young white people from privileged backgrounds — has camped out on the land under the pretense that it’s some sort of forest that needs protection.
Inside the Canadian city where opioids, methamphetamine and cocaine have been decriminalised
As a bitter wind gusted down East Hastings Street, an addict wearing shorts despite the snow was selling his Liverpool FC shirt. “I’m sick, man, I need money,” he said, asking for C$20 (£12) as he eyed his next fix.
Not far away on Vancouver’s East Side yesterday, there was a free-for-all of drug use taking place — users huddled in small groups as they freely abused heroin, fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamine. None of them, however, was breaking a single law.
Today, British Columbia introduced a measure that decriminalises possession of hard drugs in the Canadian province.
The Alberta government says changes are coming to further protect free speech on campuses as a former professor speaking out on so-called “woke” policies prepares for a showdown with the University of Lethbridge.
Advanced Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides says he plans to announce the changes in the coming days but did not give details.
He was responding to the case of Frances Widdowson, a former tenured professor at Calgary’s Mount Royal University, who was invited then disinvited to speak on campus this week about her concerns that a mob mentality and “woke policies” increasingly threaten academic freedom.

EDMONTON—A group of lawyers in Alberta is pushing back against a rule mandating professional development, which currently only applies to a course focused on Indigenous history and contemporary issues.
The petition, signed by 51 lawyers, calls for a special Law Society of Alberta meeting to vote on repealing Rule 67.4, which requires all Alberta lawyers to take an Indigenous cultural competency course called “The Path” or face penalty of suspension.

… Following a court ruling that mandated the immediate repatriation of Canadian ISIS terrorists who ended up in the Al Hol displacement camp in horrendous conditions (of course, they would not have found themselves there had they not joined ISIS in the first place!), we are now about to find ourselves dealing with the return of citizens who made a conscious decision to join a heinous jihadist organization that participated in unspeakable acts against many. Their victims include the Yazidis, a “nation” the terrorists saw as apostates and, hence, expendable.
Palestinian Terrorism Praised At Toronto Rally
On January 29, Toronto4Palestine, a self-proclaimed “grassroots movement amplifying oppressed voices through action in the GTA,” held an “emergency rally” at Toronto’s Dundas Square that saw participants praise Palestinian terrorism and call for Israel’s destruction.
The rally was held just two days after a Palestinian terrorist murdered 7 innocent Israelis outside a Jerusalem-area synagogue on Shabbat and International Holocaust Memorial Day.

The actor Alec Baldwin and the armorer on the film “Rust” were charged on Tuesday with involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of the movie’s cinematographer, according to court papers, filed in the First Judicial District Court in New Mexico, in which prosecutors accused them of failing to follow standard film safety protocols on set.
In a statement of probable cause against Mr. Baldwin filed in the court, Robert Shilling, a special investigator for the district attorney’s office, outlined the ways prosecutors claim that the actor had behaved negligently on set. They accused him of not receiving sufficient training on firearms, of failing to deal with safety complaints on set, of “putting his finger on the trigger of a real firearm when a replica or rubber gun should have been used” and of pointing the firearm at the film’s cinematographer and director.
That seems a harsh headline from the NYTimes? Have Left attitudes to Baldwin changed?
OTTAWA – The union representing more than 10,400 federal public servants who operate government buildings and services is asking for a 47-per-cent increase in total compensation over three years, a demand that is “far beyond” reasonable, according to an independent commission.
Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis commented on Jan. 28 on the information she helped surface about Canada’s involvement in a World Economic Forum (WEF) project seeking to streamline federal regulations, saying it represents a “radical policy shift” from the current governance model.
“First of all, how did Canada become a member state and who recognize this as necessary?” Lewis asked in a video posted on YouTube.
“I don’t even remember this issue being brought up in Parliament, although this is like a radical change in the way that we conceive policy in this country.”
