Is reputed Canadian dope kingpin Ryan Wedding’s time on the lam grinding to a violent finale?
Wedding, 44, has been the target of one of the largest law enforcement efforts in decades. The alleged cocaine kingpin of Canada is believed to have altered his appearance and is hiding out in Mexico under the protection of the hyper-violent Sinaloa cartel.
An Afghan national has been charged with raping two 14-year-old girls in a flat in Bolton at the weekend, Greater Manchester Police said.

The Afghan national has now been charged with two counts of rape of a girl aged under 16, one count of sexual assault and one count of assault by penetration.
Just another day in Jolly Old England.
Canadians were told to tighten our belts during COVID-19. Cancel trips. Skip funerals. Close small businesses. Trust the public health orders and trust the people moving “emergency” money.
Now we learn that a large share of pandemic funding routed through the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) is tagged as “questionable,” not because of politics, but because basic documents were missing.
That is not a culture war. It is a receipts war.

VANCOUVER — A British Columbia government lawsuit seeks to merge almost a decade of litigation into a single, high-stakes test of whether the province can finally seize a fortified mansion near the U.S. border that was first swept up in a 2014 fentanyl investigation, raided in 2016, and is now at the center of a new synthetic-opioid case alleging its occupants contracted with the leader of Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel to flood narcotics into Canada.
OINT MUGU, CALIF. — Artificial intelligence-powered, autonomous, and unmanned warfighting systems are a major focus of the Trump administration’s new military build-up, likened the “arsenal of freedom” by War Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The Federalist traveled with Hegseth to California over the weekend where he delivered the keynote address outlining the forthcoming National Defense Strategy (NDS) at the Reagan National Defense Forum. But before he gave that speech, the secretary was briefed on the latest in military technological innovation and toured some industrial facilities.
Once upon a time, there were two ways of coming to the U.S. One way was to apply for entry, wait your turn, fill out documents, not be a public charge, undergo a criminal background check and so on. It’s the way most people came in. The other way was to gain entry because you were a political refugee or were escaping communism. This is how I came in with my parents in the 1960s.
Over the past five years, the practice of allowing a physician to help severely ill patients end their lives with medication has been legalized in nine countries on three continents. Courts or legislatures, or both, are considering legalization in a half-dozen more, including South Korea and South Africa, as well as eight of the 31 American states where it remains prohibited.
It is a last frontier in the expansion of individual autonomy. More people are seeking to define the terms of their deaths in the same way they have other aspects of their lives, such as marriage and childbearing. This is true even in Latin America, where conservative institutions such as the Roman Catholic church are still powerful.

‘The day I was raped changed me as a person’, read the impact statement of a 15-year-old girl in Warwickshire Crown Court this Monday. ‘Every time I go out I don’t feel safe.’
AT THE end of last month a pro-Palestinian mob stormed the Brussels Christmas market on opening night, throwing smoke bombs and spewing hate-filled slogans. As families fled in panic, it was discovered the interlopers had decapitated a baby Jesus doll in the market’s nativity scene. The reactions of so-called ‘far right’ politicians such as Geert Wilders were widely covered by the mainstream press, but only through a GBNews clip shared on X and posts on private social media pages could a factual (unbiased) depiction of the incident be viewed.
The limited availability of truthful reporting about this story by corporate media outlets is almost as concerning as the incident itself.
Robert Redfield, who held the position of CDC Director from March of 2018 through January 2021, has called for the removal of mRNA Covid vaccines from the marketplace.

After decades of growth driven by diamond mining, Canada’s Northwest Territories are facing the closure of three major mines and wondering: What’s next?
Canada’s Northwest Territories got lucky twice.
At the turn of the 20th century, an epic gold rush established the capital, Yellowknife, and brought development to the vast, sparsely populated region dominated by boreal forests and Arctic tundra.
Then a hundred years later, just as underground gold reserves in the ground were depleting, prospectors found diamonds.
The Territories, with a surface area more than three times that of California, became the world’s third-largest exporter of diamonds.
Now that era is coming to a messy end.
The odds of President Donald Trump revealing what he knows about alien life have suddenly skyrocketed, leading experts to believe full public disclosure is days away.
A wagering pool on Polymarket called ‘Trump declassifies UFO files in 2025?’ has mysteriously exploded with activity, rising to over $7million bet, shifting the odds from six percent ‘Yes’ on December 6 to a staggering 98 percent Tuesday morning.
Polymarket is a popular online prediction platform where people bet on the outcomes of real-world events, such as elections, sports, or even UFO sightings, using cryptocurrency, turning speculation into a crowd-sourced probability meter.

A teacher has been sacked for reminding his pupils that Britain is a Christian country.
In modern Britain, even the mildest statement of reality can be enough to trigger a punitive pile-on. The Telegraph reported yesterday that a teacher was sacked, and very nearly banned from working with children, because he told his primary-school pupils that the UK was a Christian country.
The anonymous teacher found himself being referred to his local child-protection board and even at the centre of a police investigation after he told Muslim children off for washing their feet in the sinks of school bathrooms. According to one child who made a complaint against the teacher, he reminded the children that this was not a religious school, and that they were free to attend an Islamic school a mile away if they wanted to. He apparently also told them that Britain is still a Christian state and pointed out that the King was head of the Church of England. This was followed up in the classroom by a lesson about the importance of British values and tolerance.
Telegraph: Primary-school employee sacked after allegedly admonishing students for washing feet in sinks
The federal government assigned at least 577 employees to diversity, equity and inclusion programs last year, according to newly released records — though cabinet admitted the real number is higher because several major departments refused to report their staffing totals.
Blacklock’s Reporter says the figures were disclosed in an Inquiry Of Ministry prompted by Conservative MP Vincent Ho, who asked how many full-time equivalents were dedicated to DEI-related roles.

A man charged in two high-profile B.C. extortion incidents was living in Canada on an expired student visa at the time of his alleged crimes, according to court records.
CBC News has learned that Vikram Sharma was flagged by authorities weeks before attacks in Surrey and on Vancouver Island in 2024 because he allegedly relied on fraudulent documents in his bid to extend the visa that first allowed him into Canada in June 2022.
The 24-year-old — whose student visa expired in April 2024 — is currently believed to be in India.
