Jim “Fergie” Chambers, the Communist millionaire and heir to the Cox media fortune, has long bankrolled one of the nation’s most militant protest networks. But in recent weeks, he has turned his fire on a putative ally: Shanghai-based tech billionaire Neville Roy Singham, who himself funds a transnational web of far-left groups.
“Elite Decadence & Decay”
Bill Gates Spent Years Crafting His Image. Now It’s Cracking.
Bill Gates’s employees have spent years carefully cultivating his image—down to keeping a custom-size mannequin to test his outfits for different days of the week.
A styling group stores troves of neutral tone crew and V-neck sweaters, button-down shirts, slacks and extra pairs of the Silver Lining Opticians “Carbon” glasses at an off-site building, current and former employees said. Once options are selected for public-facing engagements, employees usually send three options for approval by senior staff. The goal: to depict someone calm and approachable, like Mister Rogers.
Terry Newman: Five years after Kamloops, the church burnings haven’t stopped
It’s been exactly five years since the shocking accusation that the remains of 215 students had been discovered on the site of the Kamloops Indian Residential School, which triggered a wave of church arsons, starting in British Columbia and spreading like wildfire across the country. While the spike has abated, churches are still burning, and almost nothing has changed. Worse, it’s not even clear that the hate directed towards churches is fuelled only by the Kamloops announcement.
The liberal elite deserves to be labelled ‘patraphobic’
CULTURAL conservatism is doomed. ‘Doomed, I tell you!’ as Dad’s Army’s Private Frazer was wont to say. Meaning that all its worthwhile integral components will wither and perish along with it. Including such ways-of-living-your-life as patriotism, the family, small government, self-restraint and stoicism. Why? Not because of their intrinsic worth. And still less because they lack foundation in invincible reality. But simply because cultural conservatives (note the imperative small ‘c’, given the Conservative Party’s awful example) have conceded the battlefield of language.
In Florida, Extremist Networks Are Hiding Behind Nonprofits
Progressive nonprofits are having a rough time lately. In April, the Department of Justice alleged that the Southern Poverty Law Center secretly paid leaders of the Ku Klux Klan and Aryan Nations—not to dismantle these extremist groups, but, as prosecutors put it, to manufacture “the extremism it purports to oppose.” And a recent City Journal investigation by Ryan Thorpe and Christopher F. Rufo, based on a previous report from the Network Contagion Research Institute and their congressional testimony, revealed that the California branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations has received more than $40 million in public funds, despite longstanding scrutiny over connections to Hamas-linked networks.
And now a word from the Laurentian elite
Canada is one of history’s most successful countries. Here’s a look at who’s trying to destroy it, and how
The recorded history of Canada stretches back more than 500 years; the unrecorded history, many thousands.
It is one of the world’s oldest continuously existing democracies, with a Constitution whose principal features – monarchical, federal, parliamentary, with an independent judiciary and (ahem) an unelected Senate – have remained unchanged since 1867.
Your kids can’t get a decent job or afford a home.
You can’t find a doctor and the waiting list seems longer every day.
Taxes are through the roof yet our so called government dumps truckloads of tax payer dollars into sinkholes foreign and domestic while you worry about whether to eat or heat.
And your hometown is overrun by migrants who hate you and the Canada you helped build.
Who couldn’t want more of that Mr. Coyne?
LILLEY: We shouldn’t let underage non-citizens vote in party nominations
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.
Jamie Sarkonak: How Regina students ended up watching a raunchy breasts out drag show
The Regina school that sent its students to a LandBack smut-on-stage “courtroom comedy” earlier this week quickly realized its mistake. It had a good excuse, at least: in a letter to parents after the fact, it explained that the performing arts theatre had indicated that the production was age-appropriate. Indeed, the theatre’s website does not mention the part where a drag queen plays a gyrating, rump-thrusting, boob-jiggling version of Queen Elizabeth II in an underbust corset.
Beryl Wajsman: Arbour’s appointment is a slap in the face for Jewish Canadians
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s appointment of Louise Arbour as governor general is not a neutral choice. It makes a statement — one that many Jewish Canadians will read with deep unease.
Arbour’s resumé is formidable: former justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, a figure of global stature. But Rideau Hall is not a lifetime achievement award. It is a test of judgment — and of the ability to embody fairness in the eyes of all Canadians.
She’s pissed off a lot of Canadians.
Louise Arbour is in The Club — you are not
Mark Carney has named Louise Arbour as Canada’s 31st Governor General. She is 79 years old, a former Supreme Court justice, a former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and a former chief prosecutor of international war crimes tribunals. She is bilingual, a Montrealer, credentialed beyond argument, and the most ideologically loaded appointment to Rideau Hall in living memory.
Arbour’s appointment is meant to be an insult.
Her toxic luxury beliefs and distaste for white people made her an ideal choice as the Royal Parasite in residence.
Will we see a repeat performance of the Antisemitism Tsar’s tenure, a woman whose bubble was burst when she found out no one was buying the con her class has long propagated to keep the rest of us in line? That no one was going to rally to the defense of a government that has busied itself importing our death cult replacements and continues to abuse immigration policy for political and personal gain?
Arbour peddles the same globalist tripe on immigration, multiculturalism and diversity.
She is a dinosaur calling the comet racist.
Can Our Civilization Survive Its Betrayal By Elites?
Sometimes you have to wonder what the point of fighting the decline of Western Civilization is.
It seems inevitable, and enough people seem to tolerate it that it’s easy to think about giving up, moving someplace where the deterioration will take longer or be avoided by a large enough concentration of people who share our values, so sanity will prevail.
That gang rape in Brighton confirms it – Britain is broken
They’re laughing at us. That’s what I thought when I saw that rictus, gap-toothed smirk on the face of one of the illegal immigrants who’d just been found guilty in a most abominable case of rape. There he was leaving court, having been convicted of assisting in the savage sexual assault of a woman on a public beach, and he was grinning. If I had to translate his leer, I’d say he was saying that our women, our courts and our country don’t count for shit. ‘You’re worthless’ was the subtext of his diabolical sneer.
The Left Is Baffled—but Still Repulsed—by the White Working Class
Democrats can rebrand candidates, but they cannot hide a long record of condescension toward the very working-class voters they now need to win back.
After failing to win Congress and the presidency in 2024, the Democrats conducted an internal postmortem of what went wrong. While they predictably did not divulge the full results, everyone knew what they had found.
Their obsessions with the low side of 30/70 issues had especially alienated Democrats from white middle- and working-class voters. Yet middle-class whites still comprise about 40–50 percent of the population and are perhaps overrepresented in voter turnout.

Row over ‘virtual gated community’ AI surveillance plan in Toronto neighbourhood
A row has broken out in one of Canada’s wealthiest neighbourhoods over plans to use an AI-powered surveillance system to create the country’s first “virtual gated community” to combat surging property crime.
Crime rates in Toronto as a whole are dropping but residents of Rosedale have been left on edge by a sustained rise in home invasions, with robbers targeting the tree-lined neighbourhood at a rate more than double the city average. Break-ins and thefts remain the third highest per capita in Toronto.

Shaken by break-ins, an affluent Toronto neighbourhood takes action
The squad of private security cars fans out after nightfall, their little rooftop lights flashing yellow against the historic homes and manicured hedges of Rosedale. Their drivers patrol the streets slowly, stopping to inspect parked cars and following any suspicious drivers.
Other unmarked security vehicles idle nearby, their drivers wearing bulletproof vests under their shirts, ready to respond to break-ins in six minutes or less.
Inside those graceful homes, residents have prepared crude fortifications: door braces, newly installed alarms, hammer-proof glass.

‘I was lynched’: Why astronaut Julie Payette flamed out as governor general
Once a friend of the former astronaut-turned-viceregal, John Fraser describes how Julie Payette crumbled into “perpetual petulance,” in this excerpt from his new book, The Governors General: An Intimate History of Canada’s Highest Office.
It should not have ended this way. It should have ended with a national celebration of an amazing, vibrant, and still young woman who managed to surmount all the challenges in a mostly male world; who managed to storm through a mostly male engineering school right up to the day she graduated summa cum laude; who managed to get through mostly male selection and training at the Canadian Space Agency; and ultimately, who managed two trips to outer space with mostly American male crews at NASA. As if all that were not enough, she also managed to crown this extraordinary record by being appointed governor general, the highest and noblest position Canada has to offer its most outstanding citizens.
