Poilievre Says Tories Willing to Work With Liberals on ‘Affordable’ Budget as Deadline Nears

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said days before the release of the federal budget that he’s willing to work with the Liberals to draft an “affordable” budget that his party could support.

“I’m willing to work all through the night—tonight and tomorrow—to come up with an affordable budget that will make an affordable life for Canadians. But we will not vote to raise grocery prices and increase housing costs as the Liberals have done over the last decade,” Poilievre told reporters during a Nov. 2 press conference in Ottawa.

Germany’s Migrant Crime Problem Is Out of Control

In a sane country, it would be unthinkable that the murder of a two-year-old boy would go effectively unpunished. And yet this is exactly what is happening in Germany. In January this year, a 28-year-old Afghan asylum seeker—Enamullah Omarzai—launched a brutal attack on a group of toddlers on a daycare outing, at a park in Aschaffenburg, Bavaria. With a large kitchen knife, he began stabbing two of the children—a two-year-old Moroccan boy and a two-year-old Syrian girl. One of the female teachers, as well as two male passersby, attempted to intervene, allowing the remaining teacher and children to escape. In the struggle, one teacher had her hand broken, while the two men were stabbed. The little boy and a 41-year-old man both died from their injuries.

‘I don’t know what’ll happen’: Young Canadians anxiously await federal budget after Carney warns of ‘sacrifices’

OTTAWA — For many students across Canada, affordability is top of mind when it comes to the federal budget set to be tabled on Tuesday.

That includes Graham Baskin, a student at Carleton University. After Prime Minister Mark Carney told university students that Canadians should be ready for “challenges” and “sacrifices” in a speech last month outlining his priorities for the upcoming budget, Baskin said he is worried for his future.

Canada Post unveils new stamp in Kitchener honouring Sikh Canadian soldiers

A new Canada Post stamp paying tribute to Sikh Canadian soldiers was unveiled Sunday at the 18th annual Sikh Remembrance Day ceremony at Mount Hope Cemetery in Kitchener.

The stamp honors the service and contributions of Sikh soldiers in the Canadian military dating back to the First World War.

Sandeep Singh Brar, curator of Sikh Museum.com, says the stamp is more than just a tribute to the soldiers.

… During the First World War, only 10 Sikhs were permitted to serve in the Canadian army.

… “Thousands of Sikhs at the time tried to join, but they were turned away. They were told that ‘Sorry fellas, this is a white man’s war,'” Brar said.


We’re so racist we have to consider measures to deal with Visa fraud from India, not to mention Khalistani terrorists

Ottawa seeking mass visa cancellation powers to deter fraud from India: internal documents

The federal government is seeking the power to cancel applications for groups of visa holders at least in part due to concerns of fraud from India and Bangladesh, according to internal documents obtained by CBC News.

A departmental presentation to the immigration minister’s office said that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and unnamed U.S. partners are aiming to identify and cancel fraudulent visitor visa applications.

Report: Foreign Charities Have Pumped $2 Billion Into U.S.-Based Leftist Groups

Nearly half a dozen foreign charities have dumped more than a billion dollars into numerous U.S.-based leftist organizations and causes in recent years, according to a new investigative report.

Released on Friday, the new analysis by Americans for Public Trust (APT) shows how five overseas charities have collectively funneled almost $2 billion into left-wing groups, policy fights, and more “to advance their extreme, foreign, activist agenda” in America. These causes, according to the report, range from funding climate alarmist demonstrations and campaigns to environmental-related litigation.

Panicked ABC bosses issue legal correction live on The View after Whoopi Goldberg makes outrageous Trump autopen claim

The View’s Sunny Hostin passed Whoopi Goldberg a note that asked her to clarify a statement made about Donald Trump live on-air.

Goldberg, 69, responded by ripping the paper up.

The exchange happened during a discussion about Trump’s interview with 60 Minutes on Monday.

Newsflash to Mark Carney’s housing minister: house prices do in fact have to come down

For a faint second, it seemed as though federal Housing Minister Gregor Robertson had finally seen the light. During a House of Commons finance committee appearance recently, headlines reported that Robertson acknowledged what should be an obvious truth — that “the average home price must fall” to make housing affordable again.

This was welcome news for both the generations of Canadians locked out of home ownership and housing advocates, many of whom roundly lambasted the minister earlier this year when he insisted, multiple times, that housing prices don’t need to fall.

Why Socialism?

The attraction – and darkness – of stirring up envy and resentment.

On November 4th, barring an improbable upset, self-professed socialist and jihad enabler Zohran Mamdani will become New York City’s next mayor. That outcome is a sure bet given the Democrats’ permanent nasty pique over Donald Trump’s victory, especially in deep blue New York, and the Dem’s young left-wing being fed up with the party’s elderly establishment.

The Huntingdon horror: this is not normal

We are being encouraged to see even preventable atrocities as part and parcel of everyday life.

‘Be vigilant.’ Among the oddly muted government responses to the mass stabbing on a train heading from Doncaster to London on Saturday night, the words of UK defence secretary John Healey stuck most in the craw. You’d think he was talking about a rise in pickpocketing, not another act of barbarism on British soil.

Joe Adam George: In Canada, radicalization is happening in plain sight

Last month, the Ahlul-Bayt Mosque, a prominent Shiite Islamic centre in Windsor, Ont., held a memorial to mark the first anniversary of slain Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah’s death. It was the second consecutive year the mosque — and its affiliated Islamic school — has celebrated the life of a dreaded militant whose organization is listed as a terrorist entity under Canadian law.

This was not a one-off incident. The mosque has previously hosted events glorifying the late Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khomeini and other Hezbollah “martyrs.”

BBC faked Trump’s Jan 6 speech

‘The BBC “doctored” a Donald Trump speech by making him appear to encourage the Capitol Hill riot, according to an internal whistleblowing memo seen by The Telegraph.

A Panorama programme, broadcast a week before the US election, “completely misled” viewers by showing the president telling supporters he was going to walk to the Capitol with them to “fight like hell”, when in fact he said he would walk with them “to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”.

Hex appeal: the rise of middle-class witches

Make up and costume test for actress Gale Sondergaard for the Wizard of Oz.

In King James VI of Scotland’s Daemonologie, written in 1597, he vigorously encourages witch-hunting and, in particular, the tossing of witches into the sea. Only the innocent would sink. As a way of identifying witches, it was clear and presumably efficient.

These days, we have no such clarity. But witches walk among us. I’m not talking about women in black pointy hats, but something far scarier: the middle-class witch. In the past, she might have been called a depressive, a spinster or a divorcée. Now, she’s probably a middle-aged woman in the Home Counties with a TikTok account, a litany of spells and deep trauma.

BARBER: Trump brings home deals, Carney brings home nothing

Both Prime Minister Mark Carney and President Donald Trump were in Asia. Prime Minister Carney visited Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea; he addressed the ASEAN Summit at his first stop. His address to the Association of South East Asian Nations lasted about five minutes.

His speech was generally meaningless, included buzzwords from the late-20th-century free-trade model with an ESG-DEI overlay. Such words as multilateralism, a rule-based system, sustainability, and inclusivity were sprinkled throughout. He repeated his “rupture” comment and, at times, seemed to plead.

Will the budget kill Carney’s honeymoon?

OAKVILLE, ONT.—As any etymologist will tell you, the word “decide” stems from the Latin decidere, which means “to kill off.”

The idea is, whenever you decide on an action, you’re essentially killing off all other options.

This is why politicians don’t like to make tough decisions; they don’t like to kill off options that might be popular with certain segments of the population.

Such a fraud.

How Universities Radicalized Young Women and Launched the Sex Wars

Communist propaganda, arguments for lesbianism, accusations of white supremacy, and conspiracy theories about rape culture: perhaps not what the average 19-year-old (or tax-paying parent thereof) was expecting when she registered for Philosophy of Sexual Politics at Paterson State University in Wayne, New Jersey c. 1974. But that’s what she got.

The class was taught by Professor Paula Rothenberg, a prominent feminist leader who called for the “radical transformation of all our institutions.” With Alison Jaggar, Rothenberg would go on to co-author one of the first women’s studies textbooks (Feminist Frameworks: Alternative Theoretical Accounts of the Relations Between Women and Men [1978]). Later, she published White Privilege: Essential Readings on the Other Side of Racism (2002).

Her New Jersey classroom became the laboratory in which young women were encouraged “to rethink every aspect of our lives.”

A very interesting read.
