At last weekend’s Liberal Party national convention in Montreal, Partrick Pichette, a Canadian who worked for several years as chief financial officer of Google in Silicon Valley, suggested that a good way to keep talented people in the country so they benefit Canada is to charge them a tax of up to $500,000 for the privilege of emigrating.

Neither far-left late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel nor Stephen Colbert have mentioned the resignation of disgraced Democrat Eric Swalwell in their monologues this week — despite showing big support for him before the congressman’s scandals drove him out of politics.
New report finds increase in anti-Sikh hate
Every day, Sukhmani, an 11th grader from Scarborough, carefully ties her turban, a practice rooted in faith, discipline, and identity. But she says that the same visible expression of who she is has made her conscious of her identity.
“They are making fun of the fact that I am wearing a Dastaar now, making fun of the fact of me being vegetarian, making fun of the fact that I have hair on my arms and my legs. It’s really not the most encouraging thing to go through, especially right after the pandemic,” she says.
No one buys the article’s “Won’t somebody think of the children” opening anymore.

Sixteen bets made $100,000 accurately predicting the timing of the US airstrikes against Iran on 27 February. Later, a single user would make over $550,000 after betting that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would topple, just moments before his assassination by Israeli forces. On 7 April, right before Donald Trump announced a temporary ceasefire with Iran, traders bet $950m that oil prices would come down. They did.
These bets and other well-timed wagers accurately predicted the precise timing of major developments in the US-Israel war with Iran, creating huge windfalls and raising concerns among lawmakers and experts over potential insider trading.
They’re going to need a bigger boat!
Greta Thunberg’s freedom flotilla, which set sail from Barcelona Sunday for another anti-Israel voyage to Gaza, has been rocked by scandal after one of its woke leaders was accused of “sexual misconduct” with at least three volunteers.
While standing outside the House of Commons, Avi Lewis recalled that it has been five decades since his grandfather — former federal NDP leader David Lewis — stood inside the chamber to advocate for the Canadian left.
After David, there was Avi’s father, Stephen Lewis, a former leader of the Ontario NDP, Canadian ambassador to the United Nations and a longtime journalist and environment activist. He passed away last month at 88, shortly after his son was elected federal NDP leader.
Now, it’s Avi Lewis’s turn to take on the mantle. And going the federal route is a very intentional choice.
My head hurts at the thought Canada is so fecked Lewis may strike a nerve.
An Ontario man accused of selling a toxic substance online to vulnerable people who used it to end their lives will no longer face murder charges and will instead plead guilty to 14 counts of aiding suicide, his lawyer says.
Kenneth Law, 60, has been publicly accused of running websites that shipped more than a thousand packages of deadly substances and other materials used for self-harm to more than 40 countries. Many of Law’s customers were young people who allegedly used the substance to end their lives; the Star has spoken to parents in Canada, the U.S., Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
I bet we find out this guy is the diversity added to Ontario’s MAID review board?

Microbial slime and a side helping of sand doesn’t sound like much of a meal, but a startling amount of the food we eat today contains ingredients that are, at the very least, unexpected – and, at worst, dangerous, such as heavy metals from polluted soils.
Graham doesn’t remember his mother ever sharing her political views. He’s not certain she even voted until she met his father, who was a big Labour supporter. She went along with that, only once voting Tory as an act of spite towards the end of their relationship. She later married a farmer who was more conservative, and leaned towards leave in the Brexit referendum. “But, honestly, beyond that, she would never even speak of politics. She just wasn’t interested.”
Graham, who works in the transport industry in the Midlands, noticed a big change in his mother during the Covid pandemic. “I remember walking home from work one day and I got this phone call and all of a sudden she was listing off these conspiracy theories at me.” He now realises how much time she was spending online, on her phone and iPad, cut off from friends, family and the church life that had always been so important to her.
I keep hoping for an expose by some guy of the Crazy Crap he got published in the Guardian, but no luck so far this piece is not satire, well it’s not supposed to be.
VANCOUVER — The BC NDP caucus has accused interim BC Conservative Leader Trevor Halford of promoting a “racist website” by praising the Western Standard while remaining silent on the specific article that prompted his praise.
In a media release issued Friday, NDP MLA Rohini Arora criticized Halford after he described the Western Standard as “independent journalism at its best” and said “B.C. needs more of it.”
