Canada prepares to welcome thousands of Sudanese, but new pathway sparks questions

In the terrifying months after the war in Sudan erupted, Kholoud Abakar and her children abandoned their home five times, moving from city to city in the devastated country in a race for survival.

Now, her Canadian family is fighting to get her and her seven children to safety in Canada. But even as Ottawa prepares a new family-reunification pathway to help thousands of Sudanese reach this country, restrictions in the rules could dash the hopes of Ms. Abakar and many others like her.

On Tuesday, the federal government is set to launch a program for up to 3,250 Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor relatives in Sudan to enter Canada.


Gee, which Muslim state would would welcome Canadian refugees? Oh that’s right none of them.

They don’t even take their own.

Canada’s drug crisis is affecting a largely unchecked population of users — newcomers

Within 17 days of arriving in Canada, Ali was introduced to methamphetamine.

“I was lonely and was thinking of suicide,” said the international student from Turkey.

Ali said he has been using crystal meth on and off since he moved to Saskatoon in 2022. Now, the 23-year-old is working toward recovery but said mental health services in his language and culturally-specific health care are lacking.


This reeks of “Capacity building” – rent seekers looking for a tax payer subsidized sinecure.

And Ali should be sent packing.

Beto O’Rourke Resurfaces to Back Hamas

Sure, you’re probably thinking “who”?

Didn’t Beto O’Rourke disappear after burning through $160 million to lose every possible race? Almost. Cockroaches are easier to get rid of than Beto who has one life skill and that’s running for political office. That makes him like a less successful Biden. But while Beto may not have won elections per se, he has mastered the skill of pandering to wealthy leftists. And currently, he decided to revive his chances of running for something by coming out for the Hamas side of things.

Canadian Intelligence Service Targets Anti-Trans Activists

In 2019, Shelly Bruce, then-chief of the Communications Security Establishment (CSE), and David Vigneault, current director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), led a contingent of Canadian security and intelligence officials in the Ottawa Pride Parade, hoisting an LGBT rainbow banner. For those unaware, CSIS is Canada’s rough equivalent to the CIA; the contingent was made up of those tasked with keeping Canada safe from threats, both foreign and domestic.

Canada’s Scary Lady To Beat Up World’s Bad Guys & Rescue Climate Change Sex Slaves

Online safety a key part of Ottawa’s new gender plan — and to world peace, says envoy

OTTAWA – Authoritarian countries are leveraging social media to set back progress for women worldwide, a Canadian special envoy says, as Ottawa refreshes its cross-government gender policy.
Canada’s ambassador for women, peace and security, Jacqueline O’Neill, says these threats require supporters of gender equality around the world to work together.

… She signalled it will also include considerations around how climate can affect women’s security.

“We’re seeing a lot of armed groups around the world taking advantage of climate disruptions to both recruit women into their forces (and) to abduct girls to be, effectively, sex slaves,” she said.

Japan naked festival: Women join Hadaka Matsuri for first time

The sea of chanting, nearly-naked men tussle, push and shove towards the shrine. “Washoi! Washoi!” they yell – let’s go, let’s go.

It is scene that has barely changed in the 1,250 years the Hadaka Matsuri, or the Naked Festival, has been taking place at the Konomiya Shrine, in central Japan.
But this year there is a change – a big one.

Away from the men’s huddle, a group are about to become the first women to ever take part.

Looks like fun.

The Star’s Resident Hamas Apologist …

A Stephen Harper tweet was the latest reminder of the depth of Western bias on Israel-Palestine

On Wednesday, former Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper was in Jerusalem, shaking hands with the butcher of Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to his tweet, Harper witnessed “an Israel scarred by the unprovoked horrors of Oct. 7, but also united in its determination to end the threat of Hamas once and for all.”

“Unprovoked.” “Ending the threat of Hamas.” Phrases being repeatedly used to justify the unjustifiable.

Harper’s ahistorical and disingenuous framing of what’s unfolding in Gaza reflects the extent to which what we’re witnessing from the powerful is an attempt to promote a simplistic viewpoint of “good” and “bad.”

I try to ignore Shree Paradkar as one of her racist screeds is pretty much like another but they keep pulling me back in …

A senior Health Canada official removed mention of a “high level of impurity” in mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in an assessment done by a colleague for the department’s chief medical adviser, internal records show.

Two senior Health Canada (HC) officials, including the one with final authority on vaccine authorization, expressed concerns about the conclusions written by the HC scientist tasked with producing the assessment.
