The City of Calgary’s decision to refrain from holding a large fireworks display this Canada Day — in part because of cultural sensitivities — is two years too late, according to one Indigenous advocate.
On Thursday the city said it would forgo the usual July 1 fireworks display and instead have an enhanced pyrotechnic show on the main stage at Fort Calgary during the evening’s final act.

Hyundai and Kia have agreed to settle a consumer class-action lawsuit worth $200m over rampant thefts of the vehicles because of a TikTok trend.
In February, the Korean automakers said they would offer software upgrades to 8.3m US vehicles to help curb a stark increase in thefts using a method popularized on TikTok and other social media channels.
The TikTok trend started spreading in 2021, challenging users to steal 2010 to 2021 model year Kia and Hyundai cars using a USB cable. Cities across the US saw thefts of the vehicles spike. By fall 2022, Los Angeles officials said there was an 85% increase in thefts of Kia and Hyundai vehicles compared to the previous year.

In Los Angeles County, they’ve got a real doozy of a problem — gangs turning up on the police side of the glass, inside the department itself.

Younger people are also more likely to believe in life after death than older generations, despite being less religious generally.

The University of Houston’s Radical DEI Bureaucracy
The University of Houston has created a radical DEI bureaucracy that condemns the United States as a “white supremacy system,” castigates Christians for their “religious privilege,” and hosts sexually explicit events such as “Queer Sex After Dark” and “Sex Ed Bingo: Chance to Win a Sex Toy.”
The University of Houston is a public institution that serves more than 46,000 students, approximately 80 percent of whom are racial minorities. But for the leadership, the goal of “diversity” is an ideological, rather than demographic, project.
The Ontario government will pay more to ensure that an electric vehicle battery plant is built in Windsor, Ont., Premier Doug Ford said on May 19.
