Canada promised to deliver a $400M air defence system to Ukraine a year ago. It still hasn’t arrived

A $400-million air defence system promised almost a year ago by Canada to Ukraine has yet to be delivered as plans are still being developed.

The Liberal government announced with great fanfare on Jan. 10, 2023 that it was acquiring the advanced air defence system and associated munitions for Ukraine at a cost of $406 million.

But the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System, or NASAMS, hasn’t been delivered, and plans are still being worked out, National Defence confirmed to this newspaper.

Is there no low the Liberals cannot sink to?

Ottawa to accept 1,000 applications from Hamas seeking a way out of Gaza

The federal government says a maximum of 1,000 Palestinian relatives of Canadian citizens will be able to apply to escape the Gaza Strip with Canada’s help.

The special extended family program for people in Gaza is set to launch next week, after Palestinian Canadians pleaded with the government for months to rescue their loved ones as the Israel-Hamas war continues.

The policy details released last week say the program will stop taking applications either after it receives 1,000 requests or after a year has elapsed.

Ontario faces pressure to make contraception free for those over 25

Zoe Lazaris has had brain injuries and suffers from migraines, which used to leave her bedridden for days. But then she discovered that taking hormonal birth controls pills worked wonders to reduce her headaches.

“It’s improved my quality of life a lot. I don’t have to stay at home for a full day as often as I used to, when I was just taken out by a migraine,” the 22-year-old recent university graduate said.

Pyramids of Giza part of black history, schoolchildren taught

Claim is made in educational resources compiled by Labour-run Luton council to help teachers deliver a ‘diverse curriculum’

The Pyramids of Giza have been included in a timeline of black history intended for schoolchildren.

Labour-run Luton council has compiled a range of educational resources to help local schools deliver a “diverse curriculum”, including a timeline citing the Pyramids of Giza in an overview of black history.

The 4,500-year-old monuments were built for the Egyptian pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty, none of whom are believed by scholars to have been black.

The Great Taking: You Really No Longer Own Your Securities, and You Could Also Lose Your Freedom

Under a veil of benevolence, the Great Reset engineered by the World Economic Forum (WEF), aims to shift wealth from individuals and small businesses to global organizations controlled by the elite.  As part of this agenda, a revamping of the financial system has been underway for – believe it or not – over half a century, says David Rogers Webb in his recent book The Great Taking and its accompanying documentary.

Webb’s research and insights demonstrate that the WEF’s dubious catchphrase You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy already has risky implications for investments in securities, mutual funds, pension funds, and the like. Investors, he shows, are no longer ‘owners’ of securities; they are only ‘unsecured creditors.’ Besides, investments are vulnerable to the vagaries of the opaque derivatives market.  If the system collapses – he says this is inevitable – investors will not only lose money, they will receive no compensation.

Russia builds ‘Stalin centres’ to restore reputation of dictator

“Stalin centres” are popping up across Russia as Vladimir Putin tries to rehabilitate the reputation of the Soviet dictator.

The centres are being built in Russia’s biggest cities to reposition Joseph Stalin as “a great man of history” and boost support for Putin’s war in Ukraine.

In mid-December, at the opening of Russia’s second Stalin Centre in the city of Barnaul in Altai, Sergei Matasov, the regional Communist Party leader, credited Stalin with modernising the world during his 1924-53 rule over the Soviet Union.
