School closures may not have been necessary to prevent spread of COVID-19, researchers at McMaster find

An “extensive,” two-year review of COVID-19 in schools and daycares has revealed that these settings were not a significant source of transmission of the virus when infection prevention and control measures were used, researchers at McMaster University have found.

The review was published Thursday in The Lancet Child and Adolescent Health and examined more than 34,000 references, including databases, websites, and studies, related to transmission in child-care settings and schools across the globe.

Pierre Poilievre: Justin Trudeau rewards NIMBY gatekeepers

Canadians are living through a housing hell. Since Justin Trudeau became Prime Minister, rent and mortgage costs have doubled. Rents have reached a record-high average of $2,196 a month. It now takes 25 years for the average Toronto family to save up for a down payment. Before Trudeau, you could pay off an entire mortgage in that time. Over the past year, the cost to rent an apartment with a roommate jumped by 18.5 per cent, making it more expensive than living alone when Trudeau was first elected.

London, Ont., police training with Putin allied Chechen paramilitary group damages Canada’s image, researcher warns

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov is Putin’s ally

London, Ont., police officers participating in a competition in Dubai alongside a Chechen group accused of committing atrocities in the conflict with Ukraine “damages the image of Canada,” says a University of Toronto professor with expertise in international relations and political science.

“When you are doing anything internationally, you have to also be aware of the image of the country, it’s not just a local matter. And so there’s an extra duty,” said Aurel Braun, who’s also an associate with the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies at Harvard University.

GOLDSTEIN: The clock is ticking down on Trudeau

Time is rapidly running out for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to decide whether he’s going to lead the Liberals into the next federal election.

Assuming the Liberal/NDP accord holds, it has to be held on or before Oct. 20, 2025 — 20 months away.

Junior is petty, vindictive and vain.

He will run out the clock even if he admits to himself that he has no chance of winning the next election. He simply enjoys making life as shitty as possible for Canadians.

His globalist sister is cut from the same cloth. People can’t afford homes but that troll gives a huge tax holiday to the LPC’s pals in the corporate welfare class.

Guilbeault wants municipalities to stop building roads; urges people to walk

The road to hell will truly be paved with ill-intent — or not at all — if a leading Liberal cabinet minister has his way.

It’s not enough to ban internal combustion engines, keep oil and gas in the ground and force all Canadians to drive electric vehicles. Now federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault wants governments at all levels to stop building the roads to drive them on.

“White People Are Subhuman,” Says RAF Tla’amin Leader

“The white people in Canada are subhuman because of what they’ve allowed to happen,” said former Chief Councillor of the Tla’amin First Nation KWAST-en-ayu (Maynard Harry) in a 90 minute phone interview with The New Westminster Times about the City of Powell River’s controversial name change proposal.

… “White people need to acknowledge their culture is lost,” said KWAST-en-ayu bluntly. “White settler culture is a lost culture because nothing good defines white people.”

“If I insult white people, I don’t give a sh-t,” admitted KWAST-en-ayu.

I will vote for the leader who says, “Hey Abo’s you’re on your own, no more cheques.”
