A QAnon ‘queen’ and the Canada town that wants her gone

She claims to be the Queen of Canada, and now she’s holding court in an abandoned school.

Romana Didulo, a QAnon-inspired conspiracy theorist, leads a group of supporters who have spent the last few years traveling around Canada in motorhomes and other vehicles.

Recently, the group moved into Richmound, a village of around 150 people in south-western Saskatchewan, and settled in at a former school.

Anthony Furey: A Very Low Point for Canada

It was only last week that Canada’s relations with India, the world’s largest democracy, went downhill fast. The drama became a big international story and when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the United Nations in New York last week, the India affair was pretty much all he was asked about.

Trudeau publicly accused the Indian government of participating in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil—a Sikh independence activist born in India who has been accused of terrorism, a charge he had denied. Trudeau produced no meaningful evidence and India was not happy, creating a chill in relations that included the stopping of all visas for Canadian citizens.

Victoria’s Secret’s ‘Diversity’ Rebrand Is Unrecognizable And Out Of Touch

In 2019, women’s lingerie company Victoria’s Secret announced they would be ending their annual fashion show following public scrutiny. The Chief Marketing Officer Edward Razek made criticized remarks about transgender and overweight models, and CEO Lex Warner stepped down due to a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. So the show was scrapped.

It has since been announced that the company will be presenting a reimagined runway studded with diversity hires and fashion icons. But behind the marketing mirage, nobody is buying the PR move or their products.

Trudeau Apologizes For Nazi Adjacent Liberal Party’s Waffen SS Affinity

Trudeau apologizes after a Ukrainian Nazi veteran was celebrated at Zelenskyy speech

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has apologized on behalf of Canada after a veteran of Adolf Hitler’s Nazi forces was included in a parliamentary event last week honouring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

“All of us who were in this House on Friday regret deeply having stood and clapped even though we did so unaware of the context,” Trudeau said in a brief statement to reporters.

“It was a horrendous violation of the memory of the millions of people who died in the Holocaust,” he said, saying the celebration of ex-soldier Yaroslav Hunka was “deeply, deeply painful” to Jewish people, Poles, Roma, the LGBT community and other racialized people in particular — some of the groups that were targeted by the Nazi regime in the Second World War.

Canada isn’t guilty of anything. Trudeau and his Nazi party loving pals are guilty.

Parliament’s Nazi scandal a ‘top headline story’ for Russian propaganda news

OTTAWA — On Tuesday, a Russian embassy account posted online that Ukraine was issuing stamps with the face of Yaroslav Hunka, who received a standing ovation in the House of Commons before it was revealed he served in a Nazi unit during the Second World War.

The “completely false” post from Russia’s U.K. embassy uses a fabricated stamp and is an example of how Russia is already using the incident for its own purposes, said Marcus Kolga, senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.

Harry Potter panel axed from London Comic Con to keep transgender fans ‘safe’

A Harry Potter panel has been axed from one of the country’s largest pop culture festivals to keep transgender fans “safe”.

Producers from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child were booked to attend London Comic Con to discuss how the stage show was made behind the scenes.

But the transgender charity Switchboard complained to organisers that it had “concerns about the potential impact on our community, particularly trans individuals”.
