Did you know that the definition of “racism” was changed in 2020?
Confession: I didn’t. (Stupid ol’ me still hadn’t updated my dictionary.)
But apparently, a Drake University student in Iowa wrote a letter to Merriam-Webster, suggesting that the definition should also include “systemic oppression” after the death of George Floyd.
A majority of Florida Republicans say they will not be watching woke rapper Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show, according to a recent poll. Democrats, however, are planning to tune in.
The survey, published on Friday, found that 68 percent of Florida registered voters said they will watch the NFL’s Super Bowl LX on Sunday, according to a report by South Florida Sun Sentinel.

It is doubtful any country has ever been in quite the national security dilemma Canada now finds itself in: with so much land and so few people to defend it; wedged between two expansionist superpowers, one of which was until very recently our best defence against the other, but which has since become more or less aligned with it.
The dilemma is particularly acute in light of our charmed history. A country that had always considered itself invulnerable to attack – because of the oceans that surround us, because of the forbidding climate in our North, because of the Americans – wakes up to discover that it has suddenly become peculiarly vulnerable.
Coyne alert!

A flagship eco-village backed by King Charles’s charity now resembles an ‘apocalyptic film’ after being abandoned for more than a decade.
Almost 300 houses were built on a former oil refinery site in Llandarcy, near Neath, South Wales under plans to turn industrial land into a thriving new village.
The King visited the site in 2013 – when he was the Prince of Wales – after the first phase was completed but construction was abandoned soon after.
Just how schtoopid are we Canadians? 🤔🤨🙄@fancypants_s https://t.co/TiEFra44W5

OTTAWA — For the fifth year in a row, Canada’s vice-regal will notice a nice bump on her pay stub.
The Privy Council Office (PCO) confirmed to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) that the Governor General will get a $15,800 pay raise this year — current GG Mary Simon’s fifth automatic pay raise since entering Rideau Hall in 2021.
I still laugh at her attempt to justify the outrageous expenses she ran up on one jaunt – she said they were discussing important matters such as World Peace.
This may be old news to Torontonians, but it’s worth sharing because I’ll bet you’ve never heard this one, and it’s a prime example of so much we see from the left these days.
First off, some of the nice things about the new Woodsy Park in Toronto were its amenities, which included a field, a playground, a firepit, a skate trail, a splash pad, and, with a hat tip to those Canadians, it’s well-maintained and very clean. Another nice thing about it was its name – “Woodsy.” That was easy to remember, and it just sounded nice, you know, woodsy, even though there weren’t a lot of trees.
Toronto City councilor Shelley Carroll announces they have renamed a park
‘Ethennonnhawahstihnen’ park
She says residents must learn to pronounce the new park name to be “held accountable” with “first peoples”

I LIVE in an idyllic village just a 15-minute drive from the wondrous (under-appreciated, if racist) Yorkshire Wolds. Another 15 minutes gets me into the wild North York Moors or lovely Howardian Hills (both also white supremacist/racist).
It’s a tad further to the racist Yorkshire Dales, but well before then I’d be in Britain’s greatest historic city, York, and who can bypass an afternoon (or a day, a weekend) in York?
A Bradford NHS Trust sought to recruit a nurse to help relatives who are having children together.
Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust released an advertisement for ‘Close Relative Marriage Nurse/Midwife’ for its neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The role explained the successful candidate would provide ‘comprehensive care and support to families who have recently had a baby and are close relatives’.
When Jesse Jia-Bei Zhu left British Columbia in 2015, the 62-year-old had a six-month jail sentence and a multimillion-dollar B.C. Supreme Court judgment hanging over his head — fallout from his thwarted plans for global domination of the lucrative bull semen industry.
Nearly a decade later, the wily entrepreneur’s name has resurfaced in the U.S. in connection to equally bizarre — if unsettling — allegations involving a pair of biolabs in California and Nevada stocked with vials of potentially hazardous substances.
N.S. RCMP say officers faced racist comments during raid at Indigenous cannabis store
HALIFAX — An RCMP manager in Nova Scotia says he takes issue with officers being called white supremacists and Nazis during a recent police raid of an Indigenous-run cannabis dispensary, calling such statements “racist commentary.”
In response, a Mi’kmaq lawyer accused police of painting themselves as victims and heightening tensions for Indigenous communities that have been rocked by unproven allegations from provincial politicians about unlicensed cannabis dispensaries and human trafficking.
