On a topic that literally lends itself to satire — the continuing failure of successive federal governments to improve the lives of Canada’s Indigenous people no matter how much taxpayer money they throw at the problem — the CBC and APTN entertainment divisions chickened out.

OTTAWA — Winnipeg police announced Wednesday what they called the largest drug bust in Manitoba history: 33 people arrested, 174 criminal charges, more than 525 kilograms of cocaine, methamphetamine, and fentanyl seized, $825,000 in cash recovered, and a two-year investigation — Project Puma — that required 14 partner agencies spanning four provinces. The numbers are staggering. They are also, by the assessment of the lead investigator himself, incomplete.
I agree with the Democrat Party.
After they lost the presidential election in 2024, Democrats commissioned an after-action report that was supposed to explain where they had gone wrong. This week, DNC Chair Ken Martin rejected the report, explaining his decision online: “I am not proud of this product; it does not meet my standards, and it won’t meet your standards. I don’t endorse what’s in this report, or what’s left out of it. I could not in good faith put the DNC’s stamp of approval on it.” He’s not wrong.
The wristwatch business is always good for a research rabbit hole.
As watchmakers go, Swatch has been one of the most creative. One can now buy a men’s or women’s Swatch for anywhere from $65 to $250, either from thousands of department stores and specialty shops or from online vendors, or even from the 220 official Swatch branded stores all over the world.

In April, the Big Four tech firms – Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft – pledged to invest a combined $725 billion in AI infrastructure over the next year. The rosy global future these companies envision is fuelled by a never-ending expansion of data centres. These are massive banks of microchips which require vast energy sources to power them, and large reservoirs of water to cool them.
The obligatory mass-shooter manifesto has been recovered in the wake of Monday’s San Diego mosque shooting carried out by two teenage losers, and predictably, it is a testament of nihilistic rage directed at just about everybody and everything.
Law enforcement and the media are now in possession of the 75-page document compiled by Cain Clark, 17, and Caleb Vasquez, 18 (or 19, depending on the source), who killed themselves after shooting three Muslim victims dead outside the Islamic Center of San Diego. Investigative journalist Amy Reichart reports that the manifesto revealed the two to be not trans lovers, as many were quick to claim on social media, but straight incels – “involuntary celibates,” a subculture of mostly males bitter about their inability to find relationships with women.
TOBIAS Yahaya woke in the middle of an April night in 2023 to hear men breaking into his home in Sokoto, a city in the extreme north west of Nigeria.
Three individuals had scaled a high fence surrounding the compound of the house where he lived with his wife and four children aged between eight and three years and cut through coils of barbed wire. He saw them approaching.
You can sue someone for inflicting mental distress, for causing you physical harm, and for causing you to fear that you’ll experience physical harm, which should cover all the bases of domestic violence. But on Friday, a majority of the Supreme Court went a step further and recognized a new way to sue for suffering mere indignity in a relationship.
It’s called the “tort of intimate partner violence” — which isn’t exactly an accurate title, as it doesn’t actually require violence to have taken place. The essentials are just this: a relationship between the parties (past or present) must have existed, intentional abusive conduct by one against the other must have taken place, and that conduct must amount to “coercive control.”
A woman has passed out after she and her partner were lashed 100 times each for having sex outside of marriage under an Indonesian province’s draconian Sharia laws.
The woman, who was not identified, needed to be carried away after she was publicly caned in Banda Aceh, on the north end of Sumatra island, today.
A figure dressed head-to-toe in an ominous brown garb with a white mask administered the lashes.
B.C. Premier David Eby stood by Mark Carney in Vancouver on Wednesday and said he would be the one to speak hard truth to the prime minister.
A day earlier, without Carney present, Eby was pretty clear on what truth he wants to tell — that the federal government is putting Alberta’s interests above those of the other provinces because it poses a separatist threat.
“This country cannot work if separatists, separatist premiers, others get all of the attention of the federal government,” Eby said on Tuesday. Last Friday, he accused Carney of rewarding “bad behaviour.”
That Carney he’s a regular Hitler now.
The deportation of Syrian citizens from Germany has been virtually paralyzed despite the political announcements made by Berlin in recent months. A key reason is that Damascus has stopped issuing replacement travel documents for Syrian nationals facing deportation.
According to recently published information, since the end of January no German federal state has received the type of documentation required to carry out forced returns of individuals lacking valid passports or complete identity documents.These replacement documents are an essential requirement in deportation procedures. Without them, authorities may face serious legal and operational difficulties in carrying out returns even when a final deportation order exists.
The contracts impact billions of dollars in public spending, affecting everything from policing and transit to infrastructure and tax exemptions for one of the world’s richest sporting organizations. Yet most cities have gone out of their way to keep them hidden from view.
The Host City Agreements generated by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), contracts that all 2026 World Cup host cities have been required to sign, regulate almost every aspect of the marquee soccer tournament being played on Canadian soil for the first time next month. These agreements, written by FIFA’s lawyers and often signed with minimal public debate by municipal, provincial and federal governments, help explain how this lucrative sporting tournament manages to be fabulously profitable and remarkably low‑risk – at least for FIFA.
We are going to be ripped off as usual.

Collectors from around the world flock to the three-day London Card Show each spring to exchange trading cards bearing everything from sports stars to comic-book superheroes.
But this year, most attendees are there for one thing only: Pokémon.
