Canada has right to turn back asylum-seekers at U.S. land border points, appeals court rules

Canada has right to turn back asylum-seekers at U.S. land border points, appeals court rules

In a setback for refugee advocates, the Federal Court of Appeal has rejected the argument that it is unconstitutional for Canada to turn back refugees at the U.S. land border and prevent them from seeking asylum in this country.

The court sided with the federal government Thursday in overturning a lower court decision that had called into question the future of the Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA), amid arguments that the United States cannot be considered a safe country for asylum seekers.

The decision will have devastating effects on would-be refugee claimants, their advocates say.

The police shooting death of Daunte Wright is, once again, not what the media are saying it is

It’s unclear whether liberals are hopelessly naive about the job police officers do or whether they just simply hate law enforcement.

Either way, the result is the same — we’re all less safe, and that is especially true of nonwhites.

Columbia University professor (eye roll, I know) Sarah Seo weighed in on the recent police shooting death of 20-year-old black man Daunte Wright, opining in the New York Times that “traffic stops should not be harrowing or dangerous experiences, but too often they are for people of color.”

Diane Francis: Liberal vaccine failures could be the biggest scandal in Canadian history

Trudeau’s made-in-Canada vaccine roll-out debacle may become the biggest scandal in Canadian history because lives are involved.

As of April 15, 22.7 per cent of all Americans were fully vaccinated (or received two doses) and another 38.6 per cent have received their first dose. That is roughly 251 million doses. By contrast, Canada has only provided 8.5 million doses, most of which will be reduced in effectiveness because of the Trudeau government’s decision to delay the second dose by 16 weeks, contrary to pharma-company instructions.

If You Care About the Tragic Death of Adam Toledo, You Can Care About the 28 People Shot in Chicago Last Weekend

Thirteen-year-old Adam Toledo didn’t deserve to die. He didn’t deserve to die for violating curfew. He didn’t deserve to die for unlawfully discharging a weapon. He didn’t deserve to die for being in possession of a handgun. He didn’t deserve to die because he was a black kid in a high-crime area. He didn’t deserve to die for running away when police ordered him to stop. He didn’t even deserve to die for having a gun in his hand and running away from the police. Police are trained to handle situations like this without killing someone.

Big Doug Decrees: Totalitarian Police Powers! Checkpoints! Travel Restrictions! … Canadian Constitution Foundation Objects!

Ontario is setting up checkpoints at provincial land borders and enhancing police powers to enforce public health measures as part of a push to curb the spread of COVID-19, as new modelling warns of more than 15,000 new cases a day in the province.

The province is also extending its state of emergency and the current stay-at-home order by at least two weeks beyond its current end date of May 5. The government is shutting down non-essential construction at places such as shopping centres and office towers, and outlawing all outdoor activities such as golf, basketball, and playgrounds, as well as outdoor gatherings from outside one’s household, and limiting capacity at businesses such as grocery stores to 25 per cent. After previously loosening the rules, church services, as well as weddings and funerals, will now be capped at ten people indoors and outdoors.

Canadian Constitution Foundation condemns new Ontario police powers as “police state”

TORONTO: The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) is today condemning the new powers that have been granted to Ontario police to enforce the province-wide stay at home order.

The new enforcement powers include giving the police the power to stop individuals and vehicles to ask for their name, address, and their purpose for being away from their residence. The powers comes into effect as of midnight on April 17, 2021.

It’s Time for Americans to Stand Up Against China’s Technology Theft

It’s Time for Americans to Stand Up Against China’s Technology Theft

Thirty years ago, the United States began to open its doors to China under the “constructive engagement” policy. The hope was to help liberalize China and steer it to be a “stable, open, and non-aggressive” world player, as former President Bill Clinton envisioned.

At that time, China’s technology lagged behind the United States’. It was unthinkable then that China would one day become a tech competitor. After three decades of open trade, the United States is waking up to a world in which China seems to be within arm’s length of replacing it as the world’s top tech provider.

The China class says no.

Economists sound alarm on China gaming free market to gain world domination

China is exploiting access to the capitalist economic system to achieve global dominance and ultimately seeks to control the world economy, two former Trump administration China experts warned a congressional commission on Thursday.

Miles Yu, former State Department policy planning official for China, said the U.S. must demand strict reciprocity in dealing with the Chinese Communist Party to level the economic playing field and prevent Beijing from achieving its goals.

‘Most racist paint ever’ reflects 98% of sunlight

‘Pantone 88’

Scientists in the US have developed a paint significantly “whiter than the whitest paint currently available”.

Tests carried out by researchers at Purdue University on their “ultra-white” paint showed it reflected more than 98% of sunlight.

That suggests, the scientists say, that it could help save energy and fight climate change.

Painting “cool roofs” white is an energy-saving approach already being rolled out in some major cities.

Cuba readies for life without a Castro as Justin Trudeau still too busy wrecking Canada to move home

For the first time in more than 60 years, Cuba is poised to have a government without a single Castro.

Raúl Castro, who succeeded his brother Fidel as the Communist Party of Cuba’s first secretary in 2011, is expected to step down from his post as the country begins its eighth Communist Party Congress on Friday.

“We all expect the old generation to step down from all of its functions within the party, including Raúl as first secretary,” said Ricardo Torres Pérez, a professor of economics at University of Havana.

FedEx shooter ID’d as 19-year-old Brandon Scott Hole

The man who killed eight people at an Indiana FedEx facility was identified as 19-year-old Brandon Scott Hole — as police revealed there are a “significant” number of Sikh community members who work at the targeted site, according to reports.

Hole was identified by law enforcement sources to NBC News.

Another report only said Hole and his potential for violence were known to local and federal authorities.

Indianapolis FedEx gunman, 19, was an ex-employee who had ‘been fired and previously had a gun seized by police’ before he shot dead eight people and killed himself in a two minute rampage

A police report obtained by WTHR shows authorities were called to Hole’s home in March last year to detain him after he allegedly voiced suicidal ideas after buying a shotgun 24 hours earlier. In that incident, the report said police, who later took Hole to hospital, had ‘seized shotgun from dangerous person’.
