Community groups fear upcoming Rolling Thunder rally will be Freedom Convoy 2.0

Community Solidarity Ottawa, a coalition of local labour unions, community organizations and residents, says the Rolling Thunder Ottawa motorcycle ride that is expected to roar into town on Friday and Saturday is not the bike rally in support of veterans that it claims to be, but rather little more than an extension of the “Freedom Convoy” that tied up the city’s downtown core in February.

If not mistaken, and I don’t believe I am, Community Solidarity Ottawa is nothing more than the usual bunch of commie rent-seekers.

A Man in a Prom Dress Is a Test Case for the UK’s New Transgender Bathroom Rules

The law allows businesses to decide whether to permit “trans” men in women’s restrooms — but is that enough?

An 18-year-old British man who identifies as non-binary claims he was kicked out of a luxury dress shop last week while trying on prom dresses in the fitting room. The man, Charlie Moore, said he visited the retailer alongside his girlfriend, who also identifies as non-binary.

Moore, a political activist who is the “trans rep” for the youth wing of the U.K.’s Liberal Democratic Party, blasted his claims around social media, naming the business — Monsoon in Birmingham, England — and using his political clout to inflict a firestorm of complaints on the company.

WARMINGTON: Tolerating drug use on TTC ensures violence remains a risk

There is a metal box placed on the wall of the bathrooms that most wouldn’t even notice.

Intravenous drug users, though, know what it’s for.

Even the shiny new $824-million Union Station transit hub subtly offers a hint of the problem authorities have no answer for. Drug use is common on TTC and GO properties. When you have that you will also have crime, overdoses, unstable behaviour and, of course, danger.

Indigenous, racialized, LGBTQ groups and sex workers say online hate bill makes them hateful

Indigenous, racialized, LGBTQ groups and sex workers criticize online hate bill

OTTAWA – Members of the LGBTQ community, Indigenous people and racialized groups fear a proposed law tackling online harm could disproportionately curtail their online freedoms and even make them police targets, responses to a government consultation have warned.

The documents, revealed through an access to information request, contain warnings that federal plans to curb online hate speech could lead to marginalized groups, including sex workers, being unfairly monitored and targeted by the police.

Did virus hunters cover up a lab leak?

The team was assembled to stop a pandemic — and then disappeared

In August 2016, a group of public health experts, policymakers and donors met in the Rockefeller Foundation’s Bellagio Conference Center overlooking Lake Como. Their aim was ambitious: to agree on “bold global action” that would mark the “beginning of the end of the pandemic era”. In other words, they hoped to find which viruses might cause the next pandemic, and get a head start on developing vaccines and drugs.

Douglas Todd: War pushes Ukrainian men and women into traditional roles

Much of the world has been stirred by the courage and determination of the Ukrainian people as they fight the Russian oppressor.

Marvin Westwood, an emeritus professor of counselling psychology at UBC, has spent three decades working with veterans, expresses compassion for the men of Ukraine and elsewhere. They are confronted with horrible options.

“War is a setback for gender equality. There’s still this bias around the world. It’s socialized in almost every country that guys are supposed to be the ones who fight. The highest value is that men don’t need protection; they protect everybody else. But many men don’t necessarily want to fight.”

Do what Canada does and make the armed forces viable for transgenders only.

NDP promises self-extinction if elected

Ontario NDP pledges free prescription birth control if elected in June

The Ontario NDP is promising to cover all prescription contraception under OHIP if it is elected to form government in June.

“People should not have to shell out $30 a month, every month for years on end, for birth control,” Party Leader Andrea Horwath said in a statement. “And no one who wants contraception should go without because it’s just not in the monthly budget.”

The New Democrats say they could implement free birth control “within weeks” of a victory in June.

A worthwhile initiative.
