Once envisioned as a luxurious lakeside palace, Canada’s largest home now sits abandoned, with broken windows and unfinished floors serving as eerie reminders of what could have been.
The Peter Grant mansion, sprawling across 65,000 square feet on the shores of Lake Temiskaming in Ontario, has been left to rot for more than 15 years.
You have to wonder: has there ever been a country that marched off to war with no head-of-state at the top of its war machine? It’s exactly that bad in our country, with a broken animatronic Halloween scarecrow popping in-and-out of the White House to yell incoherently at election campaign events for a putative successor too scared of the predicament she’s in to think straight. Really, no one is in charge — and if any of the leading actors on the scene really were, the situation could easily get worse.

CTV wasn’t out to get Pierre Poilievre. The truth is more alarming
Somehow during the production of a two-minute news item for CTV National News last Sunday, the weekend crew mangled a quote from Pierre Poilievre.
The story was about the Liberal government’s dental care program, which could have been jeopardized if the Conservatives had succeeded in bringing down the government with a non-confidence motion.
Meet Tonya McKenzie, an LA County Commissioner, who goes on an unhinged rant suggesting that Trump planned the ass*ss*nation attempts on himself to get attention.

UVic-led study looks at puberty stages of Ice Age teens
New research, co-led by the University of Victoria, found that Pleistocene-era teenagers from 25,000 years ago went through similar puberty stages as modern-day youth.
Found in the bones of 13 ancient humans between 10 and 20-years-old is evidence of puberty stages according to the university. Researchers found specific markers in the bones that allowed them to assess the progress of adolescence.

The Canadian government on Friday began coordinating commercially assisted departures for Canadians looking to get out of Lebanon amid mounting violence, Global News has learned.
Global Affairs Canada is reserving blocks of seats on commercial flights for Canadian citizens as it becomes increasingly difficult to book seats independently, sources in two government departments said.
They knew the risks. Not a finger should be lifted those who chose to move back.
Before the official confirmation of the death of terrorist Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, killed by Israeli Defense Forces in an underground bunker in suburban Beirut, Associated Press reporter Bassem Mroue filed “Charismatic and shrewd: A look at longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.”
A transgender Syrian refugee claims she has been stranded in a Turkish airport for seven months after a Canadian diplomat alleged that she underwent gender reassignment surgery in a bid to gain access to the country.
Arwa Almsrawi had initially been granted refugee status by Canada after the nation received a referral from the U.N. Refugee Agency.
But while on her journey to her new homeland, she got into trouble at Istanbul Airport, learning she was on the U.S’ ‘No Fly List’ and eventually had her refugee status revoked.
I’m surprised Trudeau hasn’t personally intervened.

The boy is obsessed.
Abortion restrictions put women’s lives in danger.
We’re protecting your right to choose, and making it easier — not harder — to get an abortion when you need one.

Isn’t this a nice ‘howdy do’?
Nothing but the finest for our troops, always. And the finest of craftsmen to build them.
This is scary, RCN scary but on a larger scale.
