Chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam said the bumps in Canada’s trajectory were expected as provinces continued to lift gathering restrictions and as the colder temperatures drive people to spend more time inside.

Pope Francis Calls For a Great ‘Global Reset’ So That We Never Go Back To ‘Pre-Pandemic’ World And ‘Capitalistic Oppression’
The Pontiff slammed the pre-COVID world, which he said was plagued with capitalistic oppression, corruption, and war.
“The reality we knew before the pandemic was that wealth and economic growth were reserved for a minority while millions of people were unable to meet the most basic needs and lead a dignified life,” the far-left Pope said.
DHS Issues New Bulletin Warning of ‘Domestic Violent Extremists’
A new bulletin from the Department of Homeland Security took effect Thursday, and notes that “the Homeland continues to face a diverse and challenging threat environment.” Hey, that’s great news! The terror threat is now officially “diverse” — that’s a good thing, right? Diversity is our strength! The diversity, in this case, includes both “domestic violent extremists and those inspired or motivated by foreign terrorists and other malign foreign influences,” but it’s clear that the feds are most concerned about those domestic violent extremists. As USA Today noted in its report on the new DHS bulletin, “In September, FBI Director Christopher Wray referred to the rising domestic terror threat, telling a Senate committee that domestic terror cases had more than doubled since early 2020.” Sure they have. But is this because there are more domestic terror cases, or because the feds are now aggressively looking for some in order to validate their claims?

‘The real heroes are the vaccinated’ defacement of war memorial a sick sign of the times
Shortly after the first light of day, a Cranbrook resident who was out walking noticed something very peculiar about the cenotaph upon which the names of the war dead were inscribed and notified authorities.
When members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police arrived at the crime scene, they discovered that the words “THE REAL HEROES ARE THE VACCINATED!” in large green letters had been spray-painted across the face of the memorial.

Left’s Attacks On Kyle Rittenhouse Are Part Of A Bigger Plan To Disband The ‘Well-Regulated Militia’
The corporate media is shifting narratives about the Kyle Rittenhouse case because his self-defense claim is bulletproof. They want to erase the long-understood obligation for all able-bodied citizens to come to the defense of their community when the normal authorities are unwilling or unable to do so.
World needs trillions to face climate threat: draft UN report
Helping vulnerable nations cope with the multiplier effect of climate change on droughts, flooding, heatwaves and tropical mega-storms will require trillions of dollars, not the billions now on the table at COP26, a draft UN report obtained by AFP reveals.
The failure of rich countries to make good on a promise to deliver $100 billion a year for vulnerable nations has become a flashpoint at the UN climate talks in Glasgow, entering their final hours on Friday.
But the real cost for allowing the atmosphere to continue to heat will be far higher.

Duty
To save the reader the suspense, it doesn’t get any better from here. This is communism. This is what we reviled when presented in the Soviet Union and China. The sense that the state is an everyday concern is now a fact. Americans have been slipped into that cocoon of communism inch by inch. While myself and others have warned about it, read with dread the words of Solzhenitsyn and presented each ratchet click of authoritarian rule to our readers, it’s here.
“The Triumph of Stupidity”
It’s the last period in Joseph Lamantia’s Ethics and Religious Culture (ERC) class at John. F. Kennedy High School in St-Michel. The lesson of the day: comparing the beliefs of Judaism to Christianity. Islam will be covered in the coming weeks.
Pencils squeak and sneakers tap against the floor as the class of secondary two students in matching J.F.K. Knights hoodies fill out their fact sheets. Once the activity is over, the students will share their answers with partners.
The point is to open the students’ eyes to the fact that the three faiths are borne of the same Monotheistic God, Lamantia explains. He hopes they see the similarities and how worshippers of the different faiths aren’t so different.
