‘Why didn’t we see this coming?’ Ontario Liberals release scathing review of election failure

The Ontario Liberals have delivered a scathing post-mortem into their “devastating and disappointing” election defeat to Premier Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives last June.

In a candid critique, the Liberals acknowledge they were hindered by an “unpopular” leader in Steven Del Duca, a woolly campaign platform, poor voter-identification data, inadequate candidate vetting, and a lack of money and volunteers.

Why did surviving roommate who came face-to-face with killer wait SIX HOURS before calling 911

Police have unsealed the arrest affidavit revealing why they have pointed the finger at Bryan Kohberger more than a month after four students were slain in their beds.

The explosive document shows how painstaking work by Moscow Police and the FBI tracked down the 28-year-old criminal justice graduate student.

He was denied bail today during a brief court appearance in Moscow shortly after the affidavit outlining some of the case against him was shared online.

Randall Denley: Doug Ford is on the path to repeat the doomed green energy plans of the Liberals

There was a time, not long ago, when Ontario Premier Doug Ford seemed skeptical about government’s ability to lead us to an emissions-free future. He was the guy who scrapped the province’s cap-and-trade emissions reduction system, cancelled government subsidies for electric car buyers, fought the federal carbon tax and undermined it by reducing the province’s own gasoline taxes.

The curious case of the ‘nonbinary’ priest

Too many serious institutions are indulging this infantile nonsense.

Many have pinned the beginning of the ‘Great Awokening’ – the transition of the venomous cocktail of extremely niche Tumblr culture and naff identity politics into the mainstream – to 2013. As we move into this 10th anniversary year of raving teenage internet nonsense being taken seriously in the real world by grown adults, perhaps we need a spiritual guide to lead us in our celebrations?

Defuse the Population Bomb Narrative before It’s Too Late

Paul Ehrlich is a misanthrope who’d make you apply for a government permit to have a baby if he could.

CBS’s 60 Minutes recently interviewed Stanford University biologist Paul Ehrlich about his long-held conviction that so-called overpopulation will deplete resources, destroy wildlife, and end civilization as we know it. The nonagenarian appeared hale and hearty, prophesying Armageddon with the same enthusiasm as in his youth.

Will Putin’s Blunder in Ukraine Be His Downfall?

Russia’s failures in Ukraine are creating fissures within the country’s power bases, starting with the FSB.

Is the Putin regime entering its terminal stage amid Russia’s repeated setbacks in Ukraine? As the war continues with no end in sight, there has been much speculation about Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s refusal to attend the G20 summit in Bali and his recent decision to dispatch Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy secretary of Russia’s Security Council, to Beijing. Analysts have focused on Putin’s failed military offensive in Ukraine, his fear of Covid-19, and possible health issues related to cancer. Russian historians, however, recognize a more likely scenario behind these developments.

How Green Investors Pay the Media to Promote ‘Climate Change’

AP takes millions from groups leveraged in green investments to promote the need for green investments.

The Associated Press revealed last year that it had scored $8 million to promote claims of global warming. The AP impartially described this massive conflict of interest as an illustration of “how philanthropy has swiftly become an important new funding source for journalism”.

“This far-reaching initiative will transform how we cover the climate story,” its executive editor claimed. That is no doubt true. And an incredibly damaging admission.

Propaganda Avalanche: Soros Spreads $131M to Influence Global Media

Leftist billionaire George Soros has been using his enormous fortune to buy influence around the world through news and activist media organizations for decades.

A new MRC Business analysis revealed that Soros specifically funneled at least $131,111,250  between 2016 and 2020 into 253 journalism and activist media groups worldwide to spread his radical leftist ideas on abortion, Marxist economics, anti-Americanism, defunding the police, environmental extremism and LGBT fanaticism. Soros pumped a whopping $103,236,632 into media groups that circulated his extreme views throughout the U.S. and abroad between 2000 and 2014. Fast forward to the period between 2016-2020, and Soros blew past the $100 million global media funding milestone again in just a four-year timespan.

Is it racist to like big butts?

The derriere discourse guilt-trips white women

The human butt has long been the object of all manner of obsessions. We worry over it: its size, its shape, whether or not it has cellulite on it, how it looks in a pair of jeans. But now, a new source of concern emerges: the alarming possibility that one’s butt — or at least, one’s relationship to butts generally — is racist.

America Would Be A Better Place If We Taught The Truth About Slavery

Liberal Whites wallowing in revisionist histories have made Whites the racist pariahs of the world, and Americans are ranked the worst. Americans have themselves to blame. They can’t stop talking about slavery and racism, and now neither can African Americans. If woke educators have their way, all African Americans, present and future, will be obsessed with slavery and racism because it will be the center of American history. This will destroy America’s ability to hold together as a nation.

America is the only nation where people politick to make its long-dead slave past the center of its history. As a historical matter, it makes little sense when compared to the slave sins of other nations.

Harry’s book Spare is excruciating in its detail of fight with William

Claim that prince knocked his brother to the floor takes things to a new level

If the leaked extract from the Duke of Sussex’s book is anything to go by, it reveals that the title of his memoir is in one way deeply misleading: Harry is not going to spare anyone.

We already knew, both from what he has already said about his family in the Netflix series, and from his choice of JR Moehringer as ghost writer, that the book was likely to be emotionally frank.

But this goes further — much further — than anything we have seen so far.


Prince Harry: My mother gave me a message through woman with ‘powers’

Duke of Sussex says he was told Princess Diana ‘is with you right now’ by an individual who was ‘recommended by trusted friends’

Prince Harry has said Princess Diana gave him a message after she died through a woman with “powers” who told him he was living the life his mother wanted for him.

In his new book, Spare, he says the individual told him that “your mother is with you right now” and surprised him by describing an incident involving his son, Archie, that her spirit had witnessed.

Who today would fight for King and Country?

THE recent TCW article by Piers Shepherd about the 1982 Falklands campaign prompted me to develop a theme that had been taking shape in my mind. When Argentina invaded the islands I was an instructor flying Hawker Hunters at the RAF’s Tactical Weapons Unit at RAF Brawdy on the Pembrokeshire coast. Having myself been an operational Harrier pilot in the 1970s I was listed among the former Harrier men who would be ‘refreshed’ to ensure a supply of replacement pilots in the event of a prolonged campaign. The Argentinian forces surrendered and hostilities ceased before I was needed.

UK: Rotherham councillor who allegedly stifled discussion about grooming gangs has landed a plum NHS diversity role.

Rotherham and moral rot of identity politics

In the long-running grooming-gangs scandal, we have seen the same story unfold, over and again, in towns across England. Girls are abused, en masse, by gangs of largely Pakistani-origin men. When the authorities are made aware of this, they either fail to intervene or deliberately obscure the problem, putting political correctness or sectarian identity politics ahead of the safety of vulnerable children. There have been numerous investigations, reports and inquiries over recent years, each pointing to exactly the same problem. Yet have any lessons really been learned? And have those in positions of authority really been held accountable?
