A recent report by the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) has highlighted a concerning trend: the majority of escapes from federal institutions between 2021 and 2024 occurred at healing lodges — facilities designed to support indigenous offenders through culturally focused rehabilitation.
The CBC has lost a Court application to block rival reporters from covering a hearing involving misconduct by one of its own managers.
The application marked a reversal of the CBC’s longstanding campaign for open court proceedings.
“Open courts are strongly presumed,” wrote Justice Ian Demers of Québec Superior Court, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
Over time, any organization loses a sense of its original mission and becomes a self-licking ice cream cone.
I love that image, which was invented by General Pete Worden, who was describing NASA.

The prime minister is a habitual winker. Once is once, two is a coincidence, three is a trend, and National Post counts at least four prominent public winks by Mark Carney since winning the top office — in Rideau Hall at his swearing in, in the Oval Office, and twice at the G7 in Kananaskis, Alta. — plus many more going back to his governorship of the Bank of England.
I haven’t had an explosive verbal tongue lashing like this since Greta Thunberg accused me of stealing her childhood.

Former MSNBC host and inflammatory hot take peddler Joy Reid wasn’t very joyful on her Saturday podcast. As Reid tells it, the new ICE detention center, dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz,” will be a “concentration camp” for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to put unwanted “brown people” in because “This is like being in Apartheid South Africa in the 1980s.”
An iconic sign that for decades has greeted beachgoers upon arrival to a popular beach on the Lake Huron shoreline was switched up on Canada Day.
In Edmonton last month, a judge laid the groundwork to acquit a man who, while sporting clear hallmarks of drug dealing, was caught by police packing a loaded Glock. If you’re ever wondering why crime is on the rise in Canada, you can look straight to decisions like these by our courts.

An Afghan asylum seeker who arrived in the UK with grey hair was a child at the time, a judge has ruled.
An asylum court ruled that the migrant, who came to Britain via a small boat after three failed attempts, was 15 despite starting to go grey on the side of his head.
Authorities in the UK found that he was an adult when he arrived, saying he had an “established jawline and lack of youthful glow”.
“We know where you live. … In the dead of a cold winters [sic] night, this year, or next and beyond, there is no knowing what may happen. Your property, your family may be impacted, your cat may get shot. And more. … Your vote for this guy [Trump] is seen as treading on my rights. You tread on me at your peril, motherf-cker. We look forward to visiting in the future.”
That is language from the nasty, vile letter that Pennsylvania voters received through the U.S. mail in October 2024, just prior to the presidential election. What was their crime? They had Trump signs in their yards.
