Childcare authorities were called on Lara Yates, a mother-of-four, after she dared to heckle a land acknowledgement at a school in British Columbia, says her lawyer.
Land acknowledgements are tedious political theatre and pompous virtue signalling and weaponizing social services to persecute those who refuse to adhere to this zealotry smacks of the Inquisition.
Their job has been to nurture and educate the next generation. But now they are cultivating their own political ambitions by standing in the local elections – prompting alarm over their views and fears for the young people they are influencing.
A Daily Mail investigation has discovered that a primary school governor, secondary school teacher and recently retired university professor who are all Green party candidates in next week’s polls, face accusations of ‘gross anti-Semitism’.
They have posted or shared shocking images on social media variously including claims that the October 7 atrocities were either a ‘false flag’ [a covert Israeli operation] or self-defence on the part of the perpetrators and that a terrorist who stabbed two Jews to death in 2016 was a ‘martyr’.
Two Jewish men were stabbed after leaving a synagogue in London this week – the same area where a volunteer Jewish organization’s ambulances were torched a few weeks ago. (The first responders at the latest attack? A volunteer Jewish neighbourhood watch group.)
“It’s no longer safe to be visibly Jewish on the streets of London,” a (non-Jewish) woman, Jan Bowman, said at a demonstration afterward.
My honest take is that we will have to be rescued by the US when they decide remigration is a national security issue.
The Southern Poverty Law Center may not, we hope, be long for this world. The Trump administration’s new indictment has exposed the organization’s practice of funneling millions of dollars through fake bank accounts to “informants” sitting in senior positions at the very “hate groups” it claimed to monitor. Even if the SPLC survives, the criminal proceedings may leave it so damaged and exhausted that it sheds most of its influence.
Others have charted out the potential financial incentives behind the SPLC’s alleged misconduct: the demand for “hate” in America exceeds the supply, so to create sufficient far-right activity to keep donations flowing, the SPLC was perhaps ready to pay off the operatives it supposedly fought. The SPLC meanwhile contests any wrongdoing and maintains that its informant program saved lives and was known to the legal authorities.
Progressive Conservative Ontario Premier Doug Ford has a bad habit of saying what “sounds kind” in the moment, while leaving taxpayers to deal with the real cost later.
His latest comments on temporary foreign workers are a perfect example.
At a press conference in Brampton, Ford said he wished he could “snap his fingers” and let temporary workers stay in Ontario.
The nuisance Brampton protesters pressured Doug Ford about extending their work permits.
His response? "These hard-working people are here to contribute to the community and have been trained in certain areas and I can tell you that your employers want you to stay."

On a sunny Friday in March, Ariane de Rothschild assembled staff from her bank in a glass-roofed park pavilion in central Paris. The chief executive told the dozens of private bankers and fund managers that business at the Swiss bank was strong.
As she spoke, French police arrived at the bank’s townhouse office a short walk away. They had orders to search the property as part of an investigation into a diplomat who used to work at the bank and was an associate of the late Jeffrey Epstein. After the event, the CEO went to meet them.
The raid came after the Justice Department’s release of millions of Epstein files had put a harsh spotlight on the sex offender’s elite network of associates—influential people like Ariane, a billionaire baroness through her marriage into the Rothschild dynasty. The DOJ files showed she visited Epstein’s island, sought his advice about complex family relationships and had her bank pay him a $25 million fee for consulting.
Canada’s experiment in recruiting non-citizens to the military while lowering entrance standards has been wrought with problems, if a January internal report is anything to go by.
Recruits have been failing at greater rates since changes to recruitment practices were made in late 2024, according to the document, which was obtained by the Post last weekend. Instructors are also having to deal with cultural clashes, illiteracy problems, and a lack of respect for female officers, among other problems.
Murray Brewster and CBC continue to ignore the internal conflicts in Canadian Armed Forces training platoons — including ethnic infighting, cultural clashes, lack of respect for female members, and major training breakdowns

.@Gavin_McInnes brings up a great point about why elites in the U.K. are either ignoring or blind to the Islamist invasion:

For decades, discussions surrounding mass immigration into Western nations have largely been confined to two unproductive viewpoints. One perspective, which views culture as a superficial element and asserts the fundamental similarity of all human beings, suggests that immigrants primarily require sufficient time and opportunities to integrate. Conversely, the other attributes assimilation challenges to cultural values, patriarchal attitudes, or religious conservatism. Both approaches, however, exhibit an intellectual reluctance to delve deeper. What remains conspicuously absent from the prevailing discourse is an understanding rooted in developmental psychology and civilization theory. This framework offers significant explanatory power while avoiding genetic determinism and simplistic cultural explanations, yet it still presents genuinely uncomfortable truths.
The grandpas underpinning the “Elbows Up” movement have washed their hands of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre for the moment, but it’s their grandchildren who may ultimately decide his political future — and that of his party.
The Conservatives’ weak byelection performance was billed as a defeat, but that was the best possible outcome for Poilievre, at least personally. Dodging a second defeat in a general election denied Poilievre’s increasingly noisy Tory detractors a legitimate reason to bring the knives out despite the absence of a saviour waiting in the wings. Even if they had their golden child lined up, these non-believers must know future Liberal victories are all but guaranteed so long as the NDP wallows in the single digits.
President Trump could be preparing a final blow against the Iranian regime, with just 24 hours left before the War Powers Resolution’s 60-day clock expires Friday night.
The president told reporters Thursday that, despite the regime’s aggressive posturing, it is privately begging a deal behind closed doors.
If the regime instead chooses to continue fighting, the president has been briefed by Central Command on the potential use of a new type of weapon, as well as final military plans the U.S. could pursue to bring the conflict to a definite end.
Toronto is a city in decline, we see it everywhere we look every day of the year.
It’s pothole at the end of your street that isn’t being fixed, it’s the overflowing public garbage cans on every street corner, it’s a TTC that doesn’t work except as a homeless shelter. It’s the never-ending congestion, the rising costs despite diminished service, it’s the rising crime.
On April 27, China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) announced it had blocked a foreign acquisition of Manus, the Chinese AI startup.
The one-line statement did not explain the NDRC’s reasoning. Nor did it mention that the acquirer was Meta Platforms, which had agreed to acquire Manus for more than $2 billion. Meta had wanted to offer Manus’s AI agent, a product the company offers, which can perform skilled work autonomously, across its various platforms.
Police have released images of a suspect wanted in connection with back-to-back shootings targeting synagogues in the GTA.
