Nastiness, yelling, threats: Municipal politicians face anger from fed up constituents
One politician was threatened because a resident didn’t like the speed bump the city installed on his street.
Another was yelled at because a homeowner’s garbage wasn’t picked up on time.
Earlier this month, a man who began emailing London city hall in June was arrested after his inquiries turned into death threats.
WTF?
Get a job? No thanks. They put effort into emotional and sexual labor and just because there is no overseer doesn’t mean they aren’t working.
Staying alive is work. It’s called being self-employed. pic.twitter.com/F4OTKg2vvF

Bardot and Other Screen Legends We Lost in 2025
An unsung tragic aspect of the total wreckage Hollywood has become is that every year we lose the greats who turned the screen industry into something magical, never to be replaced by the little people now destroying it. There are very few film legends left, and 2025 took away far too many of them. One of the most iconic died just last Sunday — Brigitte Bardot.
We need to talk about Islam
I did not come to Islam through theology. I came to it through fear, threat and hatred directed at me and the world I live in. I think the first time I became aware of something called Islam was in 1989, when Salman Rushdie was sentenced to death by Iran’s ‘Supreme Leader’ for writing his novel, The Satanic Verses. Images of furious men immolating books spread around the world and seared themselves into my childhood mind, fixing fear and confusion to something I did not yet know how to name. My father, a bookseller, insisted on continuing to sell the book, but decided, soberly, that it would have to be kept behind the checkout desk, available only if a customer asked for it by name.
My exposure to Islam grew as I did – through bombings justified in God’s name, through chants that promised erasure of my coreligionists, through the casual way anti-Semitism travelled across borders and languages wearing religious dress. Like many non-Muslim westerners of my generation, my first encounters with Islam were not in a library or a classroom but in the shadow cast by violence: the planes of September 11th, the suicide bombings of the early 2000s, the long years of jihadist attacks in Europe, and now October 7th and what followed. That history does not grant me or anyone else moral authority, but it does impose on us a responsibility. When an ideology repeatedly intrudes into people’s life uninvited, through bloodshed and intimidation, indifference ceases to be a neutral position.
Carney’s foreign policy shift to trade, security prompts questions about human rights
OTTAWA – As Prime Minister Mark Carney puts trade and security at the centre of Canada’s foreign policy, observers say Ottawa is also shifting how it asserts its values on the world stage.
The Liberals insist they are still standing up for human rights globally while seeking investment from China, India and Gulf countries. But a change in priorities is prompting some criticism — and changing how Canada trains its diplomats.
No Peace Plan Will Stop the Terrorists’ Jihad Against Israel
More than two months after the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip went into effect, the Iran-backed Hamas terror group seems more determined than ever to stay in power and continue its armed struggle to destroy Israel.
On December 14, Hamas marked the 38th anniversary of its founding by praising its October 7, 2023 invasion of Israel’s southern communities as a “gigantic milestone and landmark in the struggle for freedom and independence and the defeat and elimination of the occupation [Israel].” On that day, more than 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals were murdered, and thousands wounded. Another 251 Israelis and foreign nationals were kidnapped to the Gaza Strip, where Hamas is still holding the remains of one hostage.
More Canadian millionaires are seeking to move abroad. Why do so many never take off?
Lawyers and financial planners across the country are fielding more calls from Canadians asking what it would take to leave the country. But while interest in emigrating appears to be rising, many of those inquiries never turn into an actual move.
Rahul Sharma, a partner at law firm Fasken, describes many would-be emigrants as “tire kickers.” They’re typically wealthy Canadians over the age of 50 who explore their options, imagine a different lifestyle and shop around for a new country, only to stay put in Canada once they confront the true costs and legal complexity of leaving.

Most Canadians want their cars made domestically, KPMG survey shows
Many Canadians are looking to buy a new car in the near future — but amid the trade war, the majority say they would prefer that their cars be made entirely in Canada.
As many as six in 10 Canadians (61 per cent) said they are looking to buy a new car in the next five years, with more than three-quarters (76 per cent) worried that trade tensions and U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs will make vehicles unaffordable, a new KPMG survey released Monday showed.
UK Welcomes Egyptian Activist Who Calls For Rape, Murder, and Suicide Bombings
What kind of person gets the awarded UK citizenship, accolades as a “pro-democracy activist,” massive efforts to be released from an Egyptian prison, and an effusive welcome when he is finally released and flown to the UK?
Mélanie Joly likes to talk tough. Now she has to deliver
OTTAWA—Mélanie Joly — the lawyer and former foreign affairs minister now industry minister on the economic front lines of a trade war — talked tough all fall.
She threatened to sue Stellantis after it halted Canadian auto production plans in Brampton. She warned a British mining giant poised to take over one of Canada’s last big diversified mining companies that its offer on Teck Resources wasn’t good enough. And she declared that Lockheed Martin, the American jet maker building the F-35 fighter plane, must up its pitch because Canada is not getting enough economic benefit and is weighing the purchase of Swedish planes instead.
