The world is facing a refugee crisis. Across the globe, millions are displaced and longing for what most of us take for granted: a safe place to call home. As a global leader in protecting those who need it most, Canada welcomed nearly half of all refugees resettled around the world in 2020. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) recently called Canada “a bright light in a horrible year for refugee resettlement.”
On Thursday, the Biden Justice Department filed suit against West Virginia over a newly passed law restricting women’s sporting competitions to biological women.
“Athletic teams or sports designated for females, women, or girls shall not be open to students of the male sex where selection for such teams is based upon competitive skill or the activity involved is a contact sport,” says the state statute, and by any rational measure, it makes perfect sense and is appropriate.
The only ‘weird’ thing here is that the law was necessary in the first place.

The Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News found 82 per cent of the 1,000 adults surveyed have either already been vaccinated or are awaiting their appointment.

Of all the lies the Democrats tell black folks, the myth of impending reparations is the meanest. H.R. 40, the “reparations” bill, has been bouncing around Congress almost as long as Pelosi, and yet it never gets any traction. I’m not saying the government won’t some day follow through on this ridiculous plan but to do so at this point would mean the death of the Democrat Party and the Dems know it. White, Asian, and Hispanic voters (not the libs, of course) would flip. Then again, if the Dems can keep cheating in elections, they won’t need real votes.

‘Enjoy burning it all down, you well-intentioned, blind people. I’m done.’ That’s what classical-music composer Daniel Elder posted on social media after an activist set the courthouse in Nashville, Tennessee ablaze. This was in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death. Elder, though sympathetic to the aims of the Black Lives Matter movement, was distressed by the chaos erupting in his city. He took to Instagram to make his thoughts known before deleting his account.
His concern was totally understandable. Most people don’t like it when things get set on fire. But still, Elder was bombarded with abusive messages on his Facebook and YouTube accounts. One branded him a ‘white supremacist piece of garbage’.
Then, Elder’s music publisher, GIA Publications, demanded an apology. It provided him with a pre-prepared script. It had the ring of a forced confession at a Soviet showtrial.
