A U.S. Supreme Court leak indicating a reversal of the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling is prompting the Conservative Party of Canada’s leadership candidates to publicize their stance on abortion rights.
The draft opinion is reinvigorating a debate that is often part of the party’s leadership race discourse, bringing to light internal policy divisions.
It found the Tories currently have the support of 36.9 per cent of Ontario voters while the Liberals, led by Steven Del Duca, are supported by 30.4 per cent of decided voters. Andrea Horwath and the NDP sit in third with the support of 23.7 per cent of decided voters while the Greens are a distant fourth with 4.3 per cent.
California’s population has shrunk for the second year in a row, according to newly released figures.
Officials blamed the decrease on declining birth rates, higher deaths from the pandemic and fewer people moving into the state from elsewhere in the US. California lost 117,552 people in 2021, putting its population at 39,185,605, the California department of finance said Monday.
A bill in Congress would create new domestic terrorism units within the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and FBI tasked with spying on Americans considered terrorist threats, then investigating and prosecuting them.
H.R. 350, also known as the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act (DTPA) of 2022, is making its way through the House Judiciary Committee. It would give federal law enforcement agencies the power to classify as “domestic terrorism” whatever the federal government considers a “hate crime.” One of the new “domestic terrorism” agencies the bill would create would focus on “domestic terrorism matters that may also be hate crime incidents.”
… Of course, many of those in power consider the Constitution and patriotism to be acts of “white supremacy.” That is openly stated by purveyors of the 1619 Project and its effective champions in the federal bureaucracy.
On April 7, 2022, in Egypt, a Muslim man lunged at and viciously stabbed a Christian priest thrice in the neck with a knife; Fr. Arsenius Wadid died soon thereafter. Although the murderer was instantly apprehended by passersby—the crime was committed on a crowded street—Egyptian authorities initially tried to do what their Western counterparts often do: portray the murderer as “insane,” an aberration of society.
COULD MEXICO under the leadership of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador plunge into the political and economic tailspin which we associate with Venezuela under Hugo Chávez, Nicaragua under Daniel Ortega, or Argentina under the Kirchners? Over three years into his six-year term, Lopez Obrador—universally known by his initials as AMLO—has displayed many similar statist and authoritarian instincts. But sufficient countervailing forces may exist so that Mexico avoids the worst, and with it, collateral damage to the United States.
Looks as though Pavlik Morozov, the famous child snitch who turned in his parents to Russia’s commissars and became a Soviet hero for it, is still serving as a role model in woke public schools of Washington, D.C.
“My Florida Man stories are way more fun than yours,” PJ’s resident expert on all things Florida Man, Stephen Green, said to me, and he was right. But this one does have a bit of that quintessential Florida man appeal: a Florida man has offended the gods of multiculturalism and has been given an odd sentence designed to appease those outraged deities. But if he completes his assignment properly, he won’t end up appeasing them at all. If that isn’t a Florida Man situation, what is?
A new Danish study reveals disparities in all-cause mortality between mRNA and adenovirus vaccines
Do the covid vaccines save lives? That is the question on many people’s minds, that has led to heated discussions across the world.
A bombshell new study by a distinguished team of Danish researchers led by Prof. Christine Stabell-Benn suggests a surprisingly nuanced answer. In the randomized trials of the covid vaccines, the adenovector-based vaccines, including the AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, reduced all-cause mortality of study participants relative to people randomly assigned a placebo. Indeed, the reduction in mortality is larger than expected from the Covid effect and may suggest additional beneficial “non-specific effects” from those vaccines against other health threats.
Millennials and minorities, priced out of Democratic metropolises, are now thriving in Florida and Texas.
The future shape of post-Covid America is beginning to emerge. As demographic trends and surveys indicate, the pandemic has helped accelerate large, epochal changes in the nation’s geography.
It has reinforced the already existent trend of population dispersion, with people moving both to suburbs and smaller cities in ever greater numbers. The ascendency of sprawling Sun Belt metropolitan areas, like Dallas-Fort Worth, Atlanta, Houston and Phoenix, has become increasingly clear and undeniable. The 2020 United States Census notes that four of the five counties gaining at least 300,000 people since 2010 were in Texas, Arizona or Nevada. Houston and Dallas acquired far more people than New York, Chicago, Los Angeles or even the Bay Area over the same period.
Everyone knows that the answers to public opinion polls depend on the questions asked.
The findings of a new online Leger survey of 1,509 Canadian adults from April 17-19, commissioned by the fiscally conservative Fraser Institute, illustrates this reality dramatically.
The survey asked Canadians about their support or opposition to three signature programs of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau which were contained in last month’s federal budget — a national $10-per-day childcare program, a national dental care program and a national pharmacare program.
The Times’ world is race-driven.
Dr. Martin Luther King was a white supremacist.
So says the New York Times. And how does the Times know this — without saying it explicitly? It knows because Fox’s Tucker Carlson has the nerve — the nerve! — to hold up Dr. King as a role model on race.
Police in Canada have intercepted a drone which crossed the border from the United States carrying a shopping bag with nearly a dozen handguns – but only after the pilot crashed the device into a nearby tree.
Officers in southern Ontario were called to a home near the town of Port Lambton, north-east of Detroit, after residents reported seeing a stranger maneuvering a commercial drone.
There is a surge of curiosity over Pierre Poilievre’s exceptional ability to gather whole multitudes to his various rallies. Notwithstanding that he obviously has the star status of a young Elvis, (I would choose the “You Ain’t Nothin’ But a Hound Dog” phase as the basis for this comparison) it is still something of a mild puzzle to the political mind why so many people, so enthusiastically attend large rallies many months before the Conservative party leadership vote actually takes place.
No grown man should ever vote for Trudeau.
This is what pro-abortionists think of aborted babies. These are the same people furious at the thought of #RoeVWade being overturned. @LiveAction pic.twitter.com/Pdyz0Q93XD
