Canadian fugitive ex-Olympian Ryan Wedding likely still has ‘network of hitmen,’ prosecutors warn

Looks like a job for Hitgirl.

While the FBI hunts Canadian fugitive Ryan Wedding, U.S. authorities are warning he remains a threat and likely still has a team of contract killers at the ready.

Wedding, who competed for Canada as a snowboarder at the 2002 Olympic Games, is accused of running a violent, $1-billion US transnational criminal enterprise. He remains on the lam while facing murder and drug trafficking charges in California.

Between them, Wedding and his top lieutenant, fellow Canadian Andrew Clark, are accused of orchestrating at least four killings in southern Ontario, including the mistaken-identity shootings of the Sidhu family in November 2023.

Well I hope they’re sustainable hitmen!

Toronto-area teen arrested over alleged plan to travel to join ISIS

Toronto Area Teen

A Toronto-area teen has been arrested on suspicion he was planning to travel abroad to join ISIS, CBC News has learned.

Court records show the RCMP applied last month for a terrorism peace bond in the case, which would restrict the movements of the 18-year-old from Newmarket, Ont. The accused can’t be named due to his age.

“Although the defendant is an adult now, much of the allegations occurred while he was a young person,” said Nathalie Houle, a spokesperson for the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.

If only we had been less Islamophobic!

Glastonbury profits nearly double as Neil Young brands festival ‘corporate turn-off’

Glastonbury Festival saw its profits nearly double last year, newly filed accounts show, amid claims from Neil Young that the event has become a “corporate turn-off”.

Glastonbury, which is run by the Eavis family, posted a pre-tax profit of almost £6m in the year to March, up from £2.9m the previous year. Revenues rose from £57m to £68m, according to accounts filed at Companies House.

The new figures have come to light after Mr Young announced he would not be performing at this year’s festival in protest against what he claimed was “corporate control” of the event by the BBC.

Idiot founder of Canadian anti-Israel group resigns citing lack of acceptance ‘as a non-Palestinian idiot’

The founder of Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East, a prominent anti-Israel group in Canada, resigned from his post in late December, citing ongoing opposition to his leadership “as a non-Palestinian” among activists.

In a lengthy goodbye email to supporters, founder and president Thomas Woodley says that since the October 7 Hamas attacks on Israel, the anti-Israel activist movement has come to see Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) as illegitimate because of its non-Palestinian leadership.
