Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre are putting their parties before the country, says guy who put his pension before Canada

Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre are putting their parties before the country, Jagmeet Singh says

OTTAWA—NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has accused his political rivals of putting their electoral prospects before protecting Canada’s democracy, the day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled bombshell allegations that there are Conservatives with ties to foreign meddling.

That the prime minister dropped those revelations at a public inquiry peeling back the layers of his own Liberal government’s response to foreign interference was not lost on Singh, who said Thursday that both Trudeau and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre “have, at many times, chosen to put their party before the country.”

I harassed female colleagues because of UK’s open culture, says Egyptian surgeon

An Egyptian-born surgeon who harassed two of his female colleagues for dates tried to blame his behaviour on Britain’s “open culture” of socialising.

Dr Hosam Halim, 48, who worked at the Royal Free Hospital London and then at Ipswich Hospital in Suffolk, was investigated by the General Medical Council after the incidents.

At a tribunal hearing, Halim claimed he had felt isolated and lonely after seeing his colleagues drinking in wine bars.

Why Is Reddit Facilitating At-Home Gender Transitions?

The popular website Reddit is home to thousands of message-board communities, on which users discuss everything from TV shows to sports teams to science and technology. But Reddit also hosts a “TransDIY” (for “do it yourself”) forum dedicated to at-home gender medicine that facilitates hormone transitions without doctor supervision. To prevent grave harm to vulnerable children—and to comply with state law—Reddit should shut down this forum of more than 76,000 users.

Doug Ford plans to rip out existing bike lanes that are bringing traffic ‘to a standstill’

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says his government doesn’t just plan to block the installation of new bike lanes in some cases but also plans to rip out routes that have already been built when having them in place brings “traffic in our cities to a standstill.”

On Thursday, Ford confirmed he planned not only to make cities jump through new hoops to build bike lanes — but also remove them on key streets if they failed the province’s as-yet-unspecific rules.

A great idea. Gonna love the reaction in TO.

Where Do These Mobs Come From? We Have an Answer.

Kamala Harris bused in “supporters” to a rally in what looked like an obvious effort to make her campaign look bigger than it is. Women dressed in “Handmaid’s Tale” garb picketed in front of U.S. Supreme Court Justices’ homes to pressure justices into changing their minds, insurrection-style, after the Dobbs draft decision was leaked. Democrat operatives sent agents provocateurs to Trump rallies to try and start fights while in line and disrupt his speeches in 2016. In 2008, at a Hillary Clinton speech, a couple of guys heckled her with “Iron my shirts!”

Clear majority of Canadians now say there’s too much immigration

For the first time in a quarter-century, a long-term tracking poll has found a clear majority of Canadians believe the country has accepted too many immigrants.

According to the results of the survey released on Thursday, 58 per cent Canadians said there’s too much immigration, up from 44 per cent in 2023 and 27 per cent in 2022.

The responses continue a trend since 2022, after years of a pro-immigration consensus.


We did not “accept” anything. The Trudeau government and the Business class dumped them on us so they could benefit from the economic and social chaos that has ensued.

British Pakistanis increasingly reject cousin marriage

When British-Kashmiri Shagufta Rashid migrated to the UK from Pakistan in 1990, she was already a married woman with a stable home life. Her husband was also her cousin, but in her culture, especially at the time, it was considered normal.

The couple had five children and things were going well.

“All of my kids were very intelligent and beautiful,” she told DW. The first sign of trouble, however, came with one of her daughters complaining of poor eyesight.

Federal office mandate burdening Ottawa doctors as public servants seek medical notes

Family doctors in Ottawa are seeing an influx of public servants looking for medical notes to support work-from-home requests, putting added strain on an already overburdened health-care system.

Dr. Roozbeh Matin, who practises in Barrhaven, said he’s been noticing the trend for months, ever since the federal government announced plans to mandate public servants to work from the office more often.

“This is a systemic problem that all of us physicians in the Ottawa area are noticing,” he said. “We have been basically inundated with requests from our civil servant patients requesting various sorts of accommodation.”
