Now back on the streets firing at random cars…pic.twitter.com/Avwzb3kX0V https://t.co/tODHH0ciTH

For years, Canadians were told that catastrophic climate scenarios justified virtually any policy imposed in the name of emissions reductions. In agriculture and food, this translated into mounting costs across the supply chain, escalating industrial carbon pricing, and a policy environment increasingly disconnected from affordability and competitiveness.
Now, quietly, the scientific conversation is evolving.
The most important lessons are usually learned from experience.
Occasionally, an author whose experience has imparted vivid, deep, and durable lessons emerges to share them with the rest of us. That is precisely what Theodore Dalrymple, the pen name of Anthony Daniels, has done with his remarkable book, Life at the Bottom: The Worldview That Makes the Underclass.
Dalrymple spent his career as a doctor in places most of us would rather avoid: prison wards, inner city hospitals, and the crumbling neighborhoods that feed them. There, he saw poverty at its most corrosive—an affliction involving not merely a shortage of money but of meaning, responsibility, and hope.
OTTAWA – More Canadians now say economic growth should be a bigger priority in Canada’s energy policy than protecting the environment, a new Angus Reid Institute report suggests.
The pollster released a report today that suggests 61 per cent of Canadians now see economic growth as the biggest priority in energy policy.
That’s a shift in public opinion since seven years ago, when the same question had 55 per cent of Canadians saying that the environment should be the top priority in energy policy.
And Carney is just the man to lie to your face about it.
For years, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been playing a sleazy double game: presenting himself to the West as a regional mediator and responsible NATO ally while simultaneously transforming Turkey into a sanctuary for Hamas terrorists outside the Gaza Strip.
New revelations emerging from Israeli security investigations have shattered any illusion that Turkey’s relationship with Hamas is limited to “political support” or “diplomatic engagement.” The evidence increasingly points to a situation far more alarming: Turkey has become a primary operational, logistical, and financial hub for Hamas’s global terror infrastructure.
Roughly 30 federal prosecutions have been affected by criminal charges against Toronto Police Service officers allegedly tied to a sweeping police corruption probe, according to the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.
The PPSC confirmed the number of affected cases after The Globe and Mail obtained internal e-mails through an access to information request, which included lists of cases involving officers who were charged in connection to the Project South probe.
In 35 years at sea, HMS Iron Duke only ever fired her guns in anger a handful of times. She did so to hit a gun battery during the war against Colonel Gaddafi in Libya in 2011, and before that while seizing drugs in the Caribbean in 2009.
For a Type 23 frigate, designed in the 1980s to take on the might of the Soviet navy, it was small-scale stuff. But at a time when the Cold War seemed long over, it was a reminder that a well-resourced navy still had its uses.
Bernie Wasserman and his wife recently gave themselves the ultimate gift for their golden years: matching cars.
When their insurance provider finalized the policies on their new Infiniti QX50 sport SUVs, which were identical apart from colour, the paperwork didn’t add up.
The Vaughan couple requested exactly the same coverage.
Why even ask? The costs associated with migrant crime and their poor driving records are passed on to the consumer. Unfortunately all men are tarred by the same brush and deemed to be a higher risk.
President Grifter not dead yet.
2023. As the lawfare against Trump raged on, someone from the press finally asked Biden how Americans could be sure that the Justice Department wasn't being weaponized against Trump.
Biden’s answer: “I’m honest.”
MSM was fine with that answer. Didn't question him again on it. pic.twitter.com/eR57DKUDe7

Ever since the electoral reforms of the mid-19th century, the Mother of All Parliaments — the Westminster Parliament of the so-called United Kingdom — has been dominated by a party of the left(ish) and one of the right(ish). The latter calls itself “Conservative”. The “Liberal” party, as the former was known when W.S. Gilbert wrote those lyrics was supplanted in 1924 by the Labour Party, which, under Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, is now having its turn at bat.
During the most recent episode of HBO’s Real Time, host Bill Maher targeted the left for pivoting from supporting gun control to supporting Luigi Mangione and other alleged assassins.
He began this portion of his monologue by saying, “And finally, Luigi Mangione, Cole Tomas Allen, Tyler Robinson, and the ghost of Thomas Crooks must form a boy band called ‘New Kids on the Glock.’”
Conestoga College handed out pay raises with no justification, awarded contracts to higher bidders without explanation, allowed an executive to take part in recruiting their daughter into a management position, and had such poor oversight of procurements and purchase orders that one for $11,000 was recorded at $126 billion — and no one noticed.
These are among the damning details contained in a recent, confidential two-part audit of the Kitchener-area college that rates the school as “high” risk, according to executive summaries obtained by the Star.
The foreign student program was pure gangsterism made for Conestoga.
The trouble was a long time coming. More than a year ago, after the inauguration of President Trump, the United States stopped being the kind of partner it used to be for Ukraine in the war against Russia. But now, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine seems to be stepping back from that relationship as well, distancing his country from what was once its biggest ally.
Call it a trial separation, largely set in motion by the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran. American-backed peace talks to end the fighting in Ukraine have been halted since late February, when the first bombs fell on Tehran. With the negotiations now on life support, Mr. Zelensky has publicly criticized the United States in ways that would have been unthinkable last year, when Ukraine was waging a delicate fight against the Trump administration’s push for a quick peace that favored Russia.
Can we talk about the crazy way that we let our political parties select their candidates and leaders.
Over the weekend, the Ontario Liberal Party held a nomination race to select their candidate for the upcoming provincial byelection in Scarborough Southwest. Ahsanul Hafiz took 718 votes on the third ballot to defeat current Liberal MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith, who received 699 votes.
About 1 in 4 Americans think the April shooting at the White House correspondents’ dinner was staged, with a marked partisan divide, according to a survey published Monday.
Roughly 1 in 3 Democratic respondents said they believed the event was staged, compared with about 1 in 8 Republicans, according to a survey published Monday by NewsGuard, a company that rates the reliability of online news outlets. Respondents between the ages of 18 and 29 were also more likely than older people to think the incident was staged, according to the report.
Looks like the Dinner Shooter doesn’t believe it was real either!
