Tymoshenko Corruption Case Moves Forward as More EU Money Pledged for Kyiv
Former Ukrainian prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko appeared in court on Friday, January 16th, where a judge is set to determine a pre-trial restraint measure against her in an expanding corruption case. Prosecutors are seeking a bail of UAH 50 million in connection with allegations that she offered undue benefits to members of parliament.

GROK has the Tymoshenko bribery scandal in Ukraine been linked to Zelensky and or his party?
On another tangent Freeland and Soros …
Whoa… 👀
Chrystia Freeland is currently an “Unpaid Economic Advisor” to Zelensky in Ukriane…
But here she is with George Soros, admitting that every leader in Ukraine running the country was bought and pad for by George Soros. pic.twitter.com/QqcIFiIaw8

A China Deal That Trades Leverage for Illusion
Canada’s newly announced trade memorandum with China has been presented by the federal government as pragmatic statecraft in a turbulent world. Lower tariffs on canola and seafood in exchange for the entry of nearly 50,000 Chinese electric vehicles, we are told, will diversify exports, lower consumer prices, and signal Canada’s independence from American protectionism.
This framing is incomplete. More troublingly, it is strategically naive. Trade policy is not merely about price and volume. It is about leverage, reciprocity, industrial resilience, and alignment with trusted partners. On those measures, this agreement falls short.

Zeeshan Banghis – also known as Bangash – and Saifur Rahman Ahmedzai were arrested by National Crime Agency extradition officers in December 2024 after a Belgian judge jailed them in their absence.
Banghis, 21, was sentenced to three years in jail in November 2024 and will now be extradited to Belgium to serve his sentence following a hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court.

Greenland may be our first, best, and last chance to stand up to Donald Trump
My first encounter with the Sirius Patrol came after I’d delivered a speech at a conference in Nuuk, Greenland, in 2019.
A young man wearing Danish military camouflage approached me. He was tall and lean, with a weather-beaten face and piercing blue eyes.
“You’re right about the Arctic being a dangerous place,” he said. “Last winter, I travelled by dog sled along the coast of northeastern Greenland.”
The “Persecuted” Black Jewish Mormon asylum seeker from America living in Britain on benefits
Olabode Shoniregun’s application to stay in the UK was rejected last summer but he has still received free accommodation and state support
A US asylum seeker has been living in Britain with free accommodation and benefits for more than a year in the first case of its kind.
The man from Las Vegas fled to this country claiming he was being persecuted because he is black, Jewish and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
MODRY: Europe’s existential crisis should terrify Canada and explain Alberta’s push for independence
As Europe slides deeper into economic stagnation, its experience offers a stark warning for Canada. Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank, recently cautioned that Europe faces an “existential crisis” unless fundamental reforms are undertaken. Her warning should not be dismissed as alarmist rhetoric. Rather, it exposes the structural failures of centralized governance, overregulation, and fiscal mismanagement, failures that increasingly resemble Canada’s own trajectory.
CHARLEBOIS: Carney’s trip to China revealed Ottawa knows CUSMA could collapse before year’s end
The trade feud between Canada and China is finally thawing — and it was long overdue.
The rupture began in 2018 with the arrest of Meng Wanzhou, a senior executive of Huawei, in Vancouver. What followed was not merely a diplomatic dispute, but a calculated economic response: China weaponized trade, and Canadian agriculture became collateral damage. Canola, pork, lobster, and other agri-food exports faced punitive tariffs and informal barriers that reverberated across rural Canada for years.

How Mass Migration Destroyed Sweden’s Scandinavian Utopia
Not so long ago, Sweden used to be leftists’ favorite example of effective government: It had a generous welfare system, boasted a highly educated population, and just seemed a little classier and cleaner than most parts of the United States. True, it then had a small, homogenous population of law-abiding, productive citizens, but most admirers conveniently ignored this key detail.
Lucy Connolly is warned she faces prison recall for resharing ‘tongue-in-cheek’ X post about Venezuela
Lucy Connolly claims she is being threatened with a return to prison after probation officers sent her a warning letter about her social media posts in recent weeks.
The former childminder from Northampton was jailed for 31 months in October 2024 for stirring up racial hatred against asylum seekers after the Southport murders.
She was released from prison last August after serving 40 per cent of her sentence and has been serving the remainder on licence under the probation service’s supervision.
Aboriginal title—a national, constitutional threat
In British Columbia, property rights are in turmoil. But not just in B.C.—across Canada, land is susceptible to the threat of Aboriginal rights.
This property upheaval has two distinct sources. The first is Section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982. The second is the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). B.C. is particularly susceptible to both, but the rest of the country is not immune from either.
Courts control Section 35. Governments and legislatures control whether UNDRIP applies in their jurisdictions.
How Trump could hit Iran – The Revolutionary Guards are exposed
Visitors to Tehran’s enormous and enormously luxurious Iran Mall in January 2024 must have wondered who would invest so much money for such extravagance in such an embattled country. The mall is the world’s largest shopping and entertainment centre, with over three million square feet just for its shops, plus giant decorative fountains in a city running out of drinking water. At the time, Iran was exchanging missile strikes with Pakistan over each country’s war with its own Baluch population. It would soon also escalate its intermittent Israel war and suffer disastrous defeat.
