A dangerous sexual predator has been allowed to stay in the UK after claiming his home country could not treat his mental illness.
An immigration tribunal backed the Bangladeshi man’s claims that he should be allowed to stay in the UK despite his convictions for a violent sexual assault on a stranger when he was 17.
The Metropolitan Police also provided evidence that he had carried out further sexual offences in the decade since the assault even though he had not been convicted of them.
Monday, June 23, marks the 40th anniversary of the bombing of Air India Flight 182 — the deadliest terrorist attack in Canadian history, and the most lethal act of aviation terrorism in the world prior to 9/11. The bombing left 329 people dead, including 268 Canadians. The investigation into the attack is still “active and ongoing,” and is considered “one of the most complex domestic terrorism investigations” undertaken by the RCMP.
They are the first words uttered by boat migrants to British authorities after they set foot on our soil: ‘Where is the hotel?’
It is what they invariably say when they get off buses at the giant migrant reception camp on a former RAF base in Manston, Kent – the centre that processes all who arrive on traffickers’ boats.
We know this because, for the first time, whistleblowers at Manston have talked to the Mail in an investigation that lays bare in terrifying detail how overwhelmed staff struggle to adequately process the sheer numbers of migrants arriving on peak crossing days at Manston’s doors.
Have you wondered why the story of the Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter has suddenly vanished from the news? Now we have a pretty good idea why.
Boelter, who murdered State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband while also shooting State Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, unleashed terror that sparked a massive manhunt before his capture late Sunday. Initial media coverage was rife with speculation, with left-leaning outlets eager to cast Boelter as a MAGA Republican, hastily blaming the GOP and even President Donald Trump for inciting his shooting spree.

Premier Doug Ford’s next move to reform alcohol retail in Ontario could be allowing supermarket chains to sell their own private-label wine and beer, such as Costco’s Kirkland Signature brand.
The government recently began consulting with the industry about making further changes to Ontario’s rules on booze sales.
Could a passing star be on a collision course with our solar system and, eventually, Earth?
It’s difficult to know if such an outcome is likely. Recently, researchers have found the Milky Way likely won’t crash into its neighboring galaxy any time soon. Our blue marble is already slated to be eaten by our sun in several billion years, after it turns into a red giant and expands.

OTTAWA — First Nations youth leaders are warning Canadians can expect a long, tense summer of protests as governments push forward with plans to fast-track major projects — and young people will be leading the charge.
“You will see us in your cities, your city’s hubs,” said Ramon Kataquapit, a youth councillor with the Chiefs of Ontario and Nishnawbe Aski Nation and a member of Attawapiskat First Nation in northern Ontario.

Almost two billion words — just under 600 of them swear words — were carefully assessed, and the United States then handed the dubious honor of being the most cursing country in the English-speaking world, at least online.
For the Australian duo behind the research, it came as a surprise that the inhabitants of their own country did not lead the way, such is the stereotype that Aussies are easy-going and relaxed, in actions and words.
But Australians were only the third-most likely citizens to drop a swear word in conversation online.
One of Canada’s intelligence agencies says it “improperly” shared information about Canadians that it had obtained “incidentally” with international partners.
The Communications Security Establishment (CSE) shared some details about the incident after the intelligence commissioner — the quasi-judicial position that reviews the cyber spy agency’s activities — flagged the case in his annual report tabled in Parliament earlier this week.
CSE spokesperson Janny Bender Asselin told CBC News that last year the agency had to notify the defence minister “of an incident where CSE improperly shared information.”

It is well established that the abortion drug regimen is harmful for women and fatal for unborn babies. A new letter to the Environmental Protection Agency, however, asks it to probe whether mifepristone pills and their “endocrine-disrupting effects” pose a danger to all Americans and even animals due to their potential contamination of U.S. drinking water.
In their request to EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Sen. James Lankford and Rep. Josh Brecheen ask the regulatory agency to consider “evaluating the potential contaminant effects of this drug as the agency develops the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule 6 (UCMR 6).”
