This holiday season, let’s spread kindness, not COVID

Many people seem to believe that the pandemic is over. Or, at least, they don’t hear about COVID-19 much anymore. Tests are difficult to find. Mask mandates are a thing of the past. “Surely if it was still a problem,” one might speculate, “then the government would say something, right?” And one might be forgiven for thinking so.

However, governments are political entities, and politicians seem to have learned that COVID-19 is not a popular subject. Yet, if one were to look at data from wastewater testing, hospitalization numbers, and test positivity rates, it would be obvious that COVID-19 is thriving in Quebec.

Globalist Billionaire Bill Gates Slammed for Treating India as His Personal Testing Ground for Dangerous Experiments

Billionaire globalist Bill Gates is facing a massive backlash after casually referring to India as a “kind of laboratory to try things out” during a podcast with Reid Hoffman. For many Indians, this statement exposed the arrogance of Gates and his belief that he could treat sovereign nations as mere testing grounds for his globalist experiments.

Dagny Pawlak: Trudeau’s weak leadership is eroding Canada’s moral clarity when we need it most

 

This week’s anti-Israel protest at Parliament Hill’s Confederation Building highlighted the consequences of our political leadership’s failure to confront the deepening divisions within Canadian society over the Israel-Palestine conflict, as radical voices found their way to the very doorstep of those in power. The protest, ending with arrests, was a visible expression of the divisions taking root in Canadian society—a needless polarization fed by the kind of equivocation we’ve seen from our political leaders.

Jeff Bezos goes MAGA as Amazon billionaire gushes over ‘calmer, more confident’ president-elect and pledges to ‘help him’ in second term

Jeff Bezos said he was ‘optimistic’ about President-elect Donald Trump’s second term on Wednesday and even plans to ‘help him’ achieve their shared goals.

The Amazon founder was often seen as antagonistic toward Trump during his first go around in the White House.

However, Bezos expressed some excitement about potential regulatory cutbacks in the coming years.

‘I’m actually very optimistic this time around,’ Bezos said on stage during a wide-ranging interview at a conference in New York.

‘He seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation. If I can help do that, I´m going to help him.’

‘We do have too many regulations in this country,’ Bezos added.

Bezos also promised to ‘save’ The Washington Post, which he owns, following fierce backlash and a precipitous drop in readership after his bombshell October decision to prohibit the paper from endorsing a presidential candidate.

Germany’s appeasement of Islamists has got to stop

What was Berlin’s chief of police thinking, when she warned Jews and gay people to hide their identities in certain parts of the city?

In an interview last month in the Berliner Zeitung, Barbara Slowik said: ‘There are areas of the city, we need to be perfectly honest here, where I would advise people who wear a kippah or are openly gay or lesbian to be more careful.’ She also said that while she didn’t want to blame any one group for this, ‘there are certain neighbourhoods where the majority of people of Arab origin live, who also have sympathies for terrorist groups… and are openly hostile towards Jews’.

Ontario spent record sum on advertisements ‘to promote’ governing party: AG

The Ford government has spent more than any other previous administration in any other year on advertisements which, the auditor general has found, were “designed to promote the governing party.”

Auditor General Shelley Spence found as part of her annual report that, in the fiscal year ending at the end of March, the province spent a total of $104.6 million on advertising.

That is the most any Ontario government has ever spent on advertising in a single year, the auditor general said, and triple what was spent the year before.

Debt Tsunami: Global Borrowing Hits $323 Trillion Amid Economic Uncertainty

The world’s debt has soared to an unprecedented $323 trillion, surging by $12 trillion in the first three quarters of 2024, according to a new report from the Institute of International Finance (IIF).

The sharp rise comes as falling borrowing costs and a resurgence of investor risk appetite drive increased lending, reported Reuters. However, this rapid escalation highlights vulnerabilities in global financial systems, especially as governments continue to operate under significant budget deficits.

Batshit Crazy Ninth Circuit Sides With PETA

The three-judge panel overturned a preliminary injunction issued by a federal court, which barred the university from revealing the identities of current and former members of the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, a volunteer group that monitors the use of animals for medical research on campus.

“Basic ‘biographical data,’ including a person’s ‘name, address, identification, place of birth, telephone number, occupation, sex, description, and legal aliases,’ is not highly sensitive personal information, and thus categorically does not ‘implicate the right to privacy,” the panel wrote in its five-page, unanimous ruling responding to the committee member’s lawsuit to prevent their names from subject to a public records request.
