Many commentators hailed the Canada-European Union defence pact, which was signed by Prime Minister Mark Carney in late June, as Canada’s pivot away from the United States. That same month, however, Carney pledged to increase defence spending to five per cent of GDP by 2035, acceding to U.S. President Donald Trump’s demand, and he continues to pursue a comprehensive trade and security agreement with Washington. Despite what his critics may say, the prime minister is living in reality.

Alligator Alcatraz, the new immigration detention center that opened in the Florida Everglades, had the left-wing media twisting the purpose of the facility. On Monday, CNN News Central featured Correspondent Rafael Romo, who made the false claim that “hundreds of immigrants with no criminal charges in the United States are being held at Alligator Alcatraz.” What Romo was trying to mischaracterize to the CNN audience was the fact they had criminal charges filed in other countries.
Too late

Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-FL (I can’t help but remember how Rush Limbaugh used to call her “Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz”), has been railing about the “inhumane” conditions at “Alligator Alcatraz”: e.g., the detainees have to use jailhouse toilets which combine sink and toilet in one stainless steel unit, and there are “insects everywhere.”
