Of the 7,141 cases where security screeners sent IRCC a ‘non-favourable’ recommendation during the years covered by the audit, 3,314 were allowed into Canada
OTTAWA – Nearly half of foreign nationals flagged by security agencies to the Immigration Department for ties to serious offences including war crimes, espionage and terrorism were allowed to take up residency in Canada between 2014 and 2019.
An internal audit of the Immigration National Security Screening Program found that immigration officials ultimately approved temporary or permanent residency, or refugee applications for 46 per cent of the more than 7,000 cases where the Canadian Border Security Agency (CBSA) recommended against applicants being allowed into the country.

A year-long BBC investigation has uncovered a sadistic global monkey torture ring stretching from Indonesia to the United States.
The World Service found hundreds of customers in the US, UK and elsewhere paying Indonesians to torture and kill baby long-tailed macaques on film.
The torture ring began life on YouTube, before moving to private groups on the encrypted messaging app Telegram.
Police are now pursuing the buyers and several arrests have already been made.
Put the perps in the Monkey House.

Search teams are racing against time to find a tourist submersible that went missing during a dive to the Titanic’s wreck on Sunday.
Five people were on board when contact with the small sub was lost about an hour and 45 minutes into its dive.
The rescue operation has continued overnight in the mid-Atlantic but so far there has been no sign of it.
The five on board include British businessman Hamish Harding, and father and son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood.
President Biden’s son Hunter has reached a tentative agreement with federal prosecutors to plead guilty to two minor tax crimes and admit to the facts of a gun charge under terms that would likely keep him out of jail, according to court papers filed Tuesday.
Any proposed plea deal would have to be approved by a federal judge, and it was not immediately clear what day Hunter Biden, 53, might appear in court to enter his guilty plea.
The agreement caps an investigation that was opened in 2018 during the Trump administration, and has generated intense interest and criticism since 2020 from Republican politicians who accused the Biden administration of reluctance to pursue the case. The terms of the proposed deal — negotiated with Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, a holdover from President Donald Trump’s administration — are likely to face similar scrutiny.

Justin Trudeau will be remembered for his ‘leadership’ — not ‘the trash and the rumours,’ Brian Mulroney says
OTTAWA — It wasn’t the flattering words, but the bitter context, that made Brian Mulroney’s introduction of Justin Trudeau on Monday night an extraordinary political moment.
Far from Parliament Hill, in Nova Scotia the former Progressive Conservative prime minister hailed Trudeau for his “leadership” of Canada through repeated crises, saying that’s what history will remember, not “trivia and the trash and the rumours that make the rounds” in Ottawa.
Mulroney: nothing wrong accepting envelopes of $1,000 bills
OTTAWA – Former prime minister Brian Mulroney cited the brazen public nature of his cash transactions with Karlheinz Schreiber as evidence today that there was nothing untoward in their business arrangement.
Mulroney told a public inquiry that he accepted an envelope stuffed with 75 one-thousand-dollar bills from Schreiber at a hotel at Montreal’s Mirabel Airport and then climbed into a car with his RCMP escort with the envelope in full view.
Grifters or what?

The American Civil Liberties Union was formerly known for its principled stance on civil liberties. But today, it has become a group dominated by progressive ideologues. Illustrations of this shift are numerous, but a recent tweet about the death penalty is likely among the best. Not only does it show just how out-of-touch the ACLU is with the rest of the country, but it is also a masterclass in how not to campaign against the death penalty.
Here’s the story: On Saturday, the ACLU posted a graphic on Twitter reading “Florida has executed Duane Owen,” along with a caption saying “The state of Florida never provided medically necessary gender-affirming care to Duane Owen — causing her enormous suffering and violating her right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment for the more than 30 years she was in state custody.”
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is working on a platform that would allow various central bank digital currencies (CBDC) to interoperate on a global scale, Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva told participants at a conference.
“CBDCs should not be fragmented national propositions … To have more efficient and fairer transactions, we need systems that connect countries—we need interoperability,” Georgieva said in Rabat, Morocco, on June 19.
“For this reason at the IMF, we are working on the concept of a global CBDC platform,” she added.
WASHINGTON – Secretary of State Antony Blinken raised eyebrows Monday, telling reporters the US “does not support Taiwan independence” after meeting in Beijing with officials including Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Blinken’s statement ruffled the feathers of many Republicans in Congress, who viewed the statement – and the secretary’s inability to re-establish military-to-military communications – as an inappropriate kowtow to America’s greatest adversary.
