Geoff Russ: Conservatives must cull the bureaucracy to save Canada from progressive rot

Many Canadian conservatives speak of Edmund Burke as they would their first love. Their tributes are fond and wistful.

From Reagan-esque paeans to talk of common sense and gradual change, our intellectual and political right still speaks like it lives in a cohesive, recognizable country that treasures inherited norms and trusted institutions.


Won’t happen under the Liberals, Carney’s cut talk has been scaled back.

Our civil service at all levels of government are a reliable liberal-left vote bloc.

Why The ‘Seditious Six’ Should Be Prosecuted Swiftly For Urging A Military Rebellion

On Monday, the Department of War announced its commencement of an investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., for potential violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice related to his participation in Democrats’ seditious “disobey unlawful orders” video.

This is absolutely the right approach, and the move is a helpful contrast to the mixed bag Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, offered this past Sunday on ABC’s This Week.

How sick is the American left? This sick.

Leftists are so sick that when two National Guardsmen are shot by an Afghan welcomed into the U.S. by Biden, they blame President Trump for having deployed the Guard to D.C. for badly needed crime abatement. Said deployment worked marvelously. Murders, robberies, carjackings, etc. dropped massively. But our left is doing everything in its well financed power to see Trump run out of office by any means necessary.

Leftists are not bothered by the escalating crime. Can we say “color revolution”?

Gene editing of the unborn – a terrifying new biotech frontier

THE founder of ChatGPT, Sam Altman, has joined a clutch of tech billionaires contributing to the $30million funding of a biotechnology business called Preventive which aims to ‘correct devastating genetic conditions for future children’. The US company has plans to edit the DNA of babies before they are born, a process known as human germline genetic engineering, which is banned in 70 countries. Preventive is seeking a country which will give it permission to carry out its experiments. No doubt the New Zealand Gene Technology Bill, currently awaiting its Second Reading, which will liberalise decisions about gene technology experiments and place them in the hands of a single regulator, will have brought NZ to the attention of Preventive.

Housing migrants in military bases ignores the real root of public anger

For the third weekend in a row, hundreds of residents in the east Sussex town of Crowborough have protested against the government’s plans to house asylum seekers at a military site.

It is no surprise that the Home Office’s plans, announced in October, have provoked such a fierce backlash. According to the BBC, up to 540 single male asylum seekers are to be housed at an army training camp on the outskirts of this small town. At last Sunday’s demonstrations, protesters chanted ‘Crowborough says no’ and ‘protect our community’. They also wore individual numbers, each number representing one of the immigrants soon to arrive.

Terry Newman: Terrorism expert has a stark warning for Canada

Muslims desecrate public spaces with death cult rituals

Anti-Israel demonstrations and mass street prayers are about ‘conquering the streets,’ says Beni Sabti. ‘This is something very, very dangerous’

Iranian-born, Israeli terrorism expert Beni Sabti says the persistent presence of anti-Israel Hamas supporters in Canadian streets, their intimidation of Christians through mass prayers outside of churches and their open threats to the media are well-known forms of Islamist aggression. According to Sabti, Canada should be concerned about the possibility of its own October 7.


Gee if only Canada had people sounding the alarm on Islamist bullcrap all these years…

Hero firefighter who allowed colleagues to use the term ‘fireman’ after woman complained loses unfair dismissal case

A senior firefighter who was disciplined after a female colleague was subject to a ‘longstanding campaign’ of offensive comments by bosses has lost an unfair dismissal case.

Simon Bailey, who was previously praised for his bravery, was issued a written warning in July 2023 by a tribunal after he oversaw an ‘openly sexist’ workplace environment which included failing to challenge staff who used the term ‘fireman’ instead of ‘firefighter’.

The 27-year veteran of Avon and Somerset Fire Service was disciplined after his colleague Sasha Acheson complained about the behaviour of her peers in 2021.

Thanksgiving — Beyond the First Feast

Uncovering the origins, myths, and meaning behind America’s enduring autumn ritual.

Whenever the holiday season comes upon us, annual traditions and thanksgiving activities are a blessing. Family events center around each special occasion — Hannukah, Christmas, New Year’s — and Thanksgiving is no exception. Yet, while this celebration is quite common for American households, and we grow up anticipating the turkey, stuffing, apple pie — the inevitable food “coma” and football naps — many of us remain curious about how this ritual began — the “origin story” of this beloved holiday.

Waterloo school board hit with legal challenge over forced land acknowledgements

The Waterloo Region District School Board is facing a constitutional fight after a local parent and school council member launched a court challenge over the board’s decision to require land acknowledgements at every meeting and block any discussion about them.

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms has filed the application on behalf of Geoffrey Horsman, a biochemistry professor, father of three, and member of the Kitchener Waterloo Collegiate and Vocational School Council.

John Robson: This museum may cause unconsciousness from extreme wokeness

The Canadian Museum of History promises an excruciatingly woke experience, including the website accosting you with bright red “traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabeg. This land has held, and continues to hold, great historical, spiritual and sacred significance.” Instead, as with MAID generally, Canadian history is anaesthetized and sedated before being dispatched.

How the Libs Are Trying to Spin the Shooting of National Guardsmen in DC Is Disgusting

They know they’re going to get wrecked by the normies; that’s conservatives and anyone else who isn’t Trump deranged. The Left’s policies are niche, illiberal, nonsensical, and laughably set up for total failure. So, when it was discovered that the suspect who shot two National Guardsmen was an Afghan national who overstayed his visa, they had to say something.

Thousands of former international students’ visas will expire soon. What happens next is murky

Tens of thousands of international students who were granted postgraduate work permits will see their visas expire this year, casting doubt on their futures in Canada and leading economists to wonder if some will stay in the country as undocumented residents.

There were 31,610 people with valid postgraduate work permits in the country as of Sept. 30, and those visas will expire by Dec. 31, according to data from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) provided to The Globe and Mail.

Those numbers have recently come under scrutiny by economists and immigration experts because it’s unclear how many temporary residents remain in the country after their visas expire, adding to the undocumented population.

Mark Carney drops Trudeau-era climate measures in energy deal with Alberta

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberal government is scrapping plans for a major national climate policy and immediately suspending another in Alberta alone, as part of a wide-ranging accord that softens federal measures for the oil-rich province and sees Ottawa throw its support behind a controversial new pipeline proposal.

It marks a significant shift in the federal government’s approach, placing peace with Alberta over imposing national regulations that were favoured under Carney’s predecessor as prime minister, Justin Trudeau.

No pipeline will be built.
