Progressive politicians and academics often assert that particular communities face racial barriers to employment justice, and full participation in Canadian society.
Recently, a new think tank called The Aristotle Foundation for Public Policy (AFPP) published an intriguing demographic reality check about charges of discrimination in Canada.
They certainly cannot be happy in Beijing. An exceedingly technical administrative decision in Washington, D.C. will soon result in investors pulling tens of billions of dollars in investments from a cash-strapped China.
On November 14, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board changed the benchmark for the Thrift Savings Plan’s International Stock Index Investment Fund, better known as the I Fund.

The guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG-87), one of the many American naval assets tasked with maintaining free navigation of maritime shipping routes, came under attack over the weekend.
While the release of the first groups of hostages held by Hamas has inevitably raised hopes about the fate of the remaining Israeli hostages, it also exposes the Biden administration’s worrying lack of commitment to supporting Israel’s declared aim of destroying the Islamist terror group.
In the immediate aftermath of Hamas terrorists committing the worst terrorist atrocity in Israel’s history on October 7, US President Joe Biden was quick to reassure Jerusalem that Washington fully supported Israel’s right to defend itself.
Three Palestinian men were shot and injured near the University of Vermont on Saturday in what authorities suspect could be a hate-related crime.
The Burlington Police Department said in a press release that two of the three victims are in stable condition while the third sustained “much more serious injuries.” The three men, who are each 20 years old and of Palestinian descent, were visiting the home of one victim’s relatives in Burlington for the Thanksgiving weekend and were walking along a street when they were confronted by a white man with a handgun.
There is a lot of speculation about Joe Biden possibly stepping down and not running for re-election.
Mind you, this is all wishful thinking on the part of Democrats and voters who want a younger option because Joe Biden has given no inclination that he plans on stepping aside.
Several doctors who were in the emergency room when former President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963 raised serious doubts about the official narrative that says a lone gunman was responsible, according to a new documentary featuring interviews conducted in 2013.
The federal Warren Commission established that two shots fired by lone gunman Lee Harvey Oswald, who was located in the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository, struck President Kennedy from behind as he was traveling in a motorcade in Dallas. One of the bullets entered his upper back and exited near his larynx, while the second bullet entered the right side of his head and exited via his forehead.
Why shouldn’t Iran remain one of the biggest bullies on the global schoolyard?
As a little boy in Scranton, Joey Biden must have given the schoolyard bully his lunch money — plus the cash Mrs. Biden handed her son to buy groceries on the way home. Oh, and Joey surrendered to the bully one month’s rent, which he swiped from Mr. Biden’s desk drawer, right where the bully reckoned it would be. And what about Grandpa’s fat wad of cash destined for Joey’s college fund? Yup. The lad let the bully have that, too.
The more the bully pounded Joey, the more cash Joey coughed up.
The US border with Canada has seen a 550 percent surge in migrant apprehensions, with 6,925 apprehensions in fiscal year 2023.

U.S. authorities thwarted a conspiracy to assassinate a Sikh separatist on American soil and issued a warning to India’s government over concerns it was involved in the plot, according to multiple people familiar with the case.
The target of the plot was Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, an American and Canadian citizen who is general counsel for Sikhs for Justice, a U.S.-based group that is part of a movement pushing for an independent Sikh state called “Khalistan”.

US wants China to stop exporting ingredients while Iran and Russia look to weaponise the drug
There is a suspicion in the United States that China has been mounting a revenge attack for the humiliating western-led 19th-century Opium Wars. How else to explain the fact that Beijing’s all-seeing state has allowed Chinese companies to export the ingredients for the high-powered synthetic drug fentanyl that is killing young Americans?
About 70,000 died of fentanyl overdose last year; it is regarded as 50 times as potent as heroin with the pills easily smuggled into the US via the Mexican cartels.
Hamas’s war against Israel, coordinated with Iran, has exposed the fault lines in the American Left.
While mainstream Democratic liberals have sided with the innocent Israelis massacred by Hamas terrorists, leftist “Squad” members in Congress compete with Ivy League campus radicals to outdo one another by championing the vicious murderers as a “resistance.”
The first inkling of trouble came four months later. On July 5, 2019, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) arrived at the lab. Qiu, her scientist husband, and several students from China working with them were marched out and had their security clearances revoked.
“Delete That Comment”
In late October 2017, a US health official from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) arrived at the Wuhan Institute of Virology for a glimpse of an eagerly anticipated work in progress. The WIV, a leading research institute, was putting the finishing touches on China’s first biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory. Operating with the highest safeguards, the lab would enable scientists to study some of the world’s most lethal pathogens.
The project had support from Western governments seeking a more robust partnership with China’s top scientists. France had helped design the facility. Canada, before long, would send virus samples. And in the US, NIAID was channeling grant dollars through an American organization called EcoHealth Alliance to help fund the WIV’s cutting-edge coronavirus research.
