A Shiite Ashura procession held on Sunday, July 6th, near Milan’s central station has sparked fierce public backlash over the treatment of women participants.
Looking Beyond the U.S. for Trade, Canada Begins Shipping Natural Gas to Asia
The voyage of a tanker loaded with liquefied natural gas and headed to South Korea from British Columbia is a pivotal moment in Canadian trade, the government says.
It is the first natural gas shipment from a major Canadian plant to Asia as Canada looks to diversify its export markets in the aftermath of President Trump’s trade war and annexation threats.
The shipment on the Gaslog Glasgow comes a decade after a gas line project in Kitimat, British Columbia, was approved. Prime Minister Mark Carney has trumpeted the project, LNG Canada, whose plant, pipeline, gas fields, docks and other assets are worth 48 billion Canadian dollars (about $35 billion).
MacKINNON: The nation-state and the Canadian crisis of legitimacy
Either the nation-state is a viable form of political organisation, or it is not. There is no third option. It cannot be both the foundation of modern civic order and an outdated remnant to be discarded at the whim of a global managerial class. Its legitimacy must be judged not by the latest political trends, but by its historical roots and lasting importance in safeguarding human freedom, political accountability, and national sovereignty.
Maga backlash over ‘botched’ Jeffrey Epstein investigation
Conspiracy theorist allies of President Trump have reacted with suspicion after an official investigation found “no credible evidence” that the convicted sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein kept a list of prominent people to blackmail.
The joint investigation between the FBI and Department of Justice also found that no one entered the area of the Manhattan prison where he was being held the night he died, dispelling doubts that he had committed suicide.
Pam Bondi said the Epstein client list was on her desk to review for release to the public just a few months ago. Now the DOJ she leads claims that there’s no Epstein client list.
Sorry but this is unacceptable.
Was she lying then or is she lying now?

There are some extremely bizarre things about the video of Epstein’s cell that Pam Bondi’s DOJ released as proof no one killed him. First, a full minute appears to be missing from the video and secondly, it does NOT appear to be the same cell as the photo released on Jan 5, 2020.… pic.twitter.com/xW3GhU6a8N

Shooter Attacked Border Agents Hours After Dems Said Their Voters Want ‘Blood’
In a Monday article published by Axios, Democrat leaders told the outlet their supporters want more from them, including blood, to fight against Trump’s illegal immigration efforts. That same day, a man with a rifle and tactical gear shot at Border Patrol agents and local law enforcement in McAllen, Texas, resulting in a police officer being injured and the shooter being killed, according to Fox News.
A few hours after this was published, an armed psycho ambushed immigration enforcement officials at a facility and shot a cop

Parks Canada staffers annoyed over activists pushing for CPR commemoration changes
OTTAWA — Persistent emails from activists pestering Parks Canada to rewrite a commemoration of Canada’s transcontinental railway through a revisionist lens spurned annoyance among agency staffers.
In a report published by Blacklock’s Reporter, Parks Canada staffers complained in emails about the revisionists, demanding changes to a commemoration of the Canadian Pacific Railway, taking exception to descriptions of the transcontinental railway’s last spike driven on Nov. 7, 1885 at Craigellachie, B.C. — about 40 km west of Revelstoke — as being “the moment when national unity was realized.”
The Endless Quest For Reparations
The effort to get American taxpayers to pay African Americans reparations to atone for slavery in America has been around for many years. The premise for these efforts is a belief that descendants of slaves deserve reparations to compensate them for the harms of slavery their ancestors endured, and the residual discrimination they experience to this day. Is this really a good thing, or simply woke posturing that stokes race division and seeks to bankrupt America? How do you establish eligibility? What will it cost? There are more questions than answers.

We have forgotten the lessons of 7/7
A new generation is being radicalised
The grandiose Makkah Masjid Mosque in Leeds marked an impressive contrast with the surrounding terraced properties, as I walked through the tightly packed red-brick Victorian streets leading onto Royal Park Road. While the austere, graffitied houses still bore signs of poverty and neglect, their metal security gates indicating a grim sense of insecurity, the mosque stood as an oasis of calm and tranquillity.
This down-at-heel cosmopolitan community, home to immigrants, artists and students, had always been poor but peaceful. Yet on that afternoon 20 years ago, something had changed. The atmosphere was tense: the familiar sounds of Asian music, reverberating from youthful sound systems, had been replaced by a chorus of police sirens, and the colourful aura of the storefronts was lit up by flashing blue lights.
The life of a conservative male on a Canadian campus: ‘We are not the demons that you see us as’
Young men are falling behind, at school and at work, and the stats on drug overdoses and death by suicide are sobering. Not unlike other mothers of sons, I’ve keenly observed the raging “masculinity” debate, to ensure my own sons aren’t undone by their own sense of being treated unfairly. We’re used to seeing males in positions of power so there’s often not a lot of empathy for the struggles of young men.
New footage shows moment two Muslim brothers ‘assaulted police officers trying to arrest them at Manchester Airport’
The dramatic moment when two brothers allegedly assaulted police officers as they tried to arrest them at Manchester Airport last summer was shown to a jury today.
Captured from two angles by CCTV cameras, it shows the violence which broke out when police attempted to detain Mohammed Fahir Amaaz at a pay station.
He had been identified as having headbutted a passenger at a Starbucks café in the arrivals area minutes before, Liverpool Crown Court has heard.
Manchester Airport Attackers apparently head-butted a man in Starbucks caught on CCTV just before the vicious assault on the police officers.

Aaaaaaand the clip is out… CCTV of the men before the police kicked one of them. I knew it would be bad, but the men are worse than I expected… I think this concludes the investigation. Reinstate the police officer https://t.co/qdMviPqwyN pic.twitter.com/zA1M1C1w6g

Half of Migrants Refuse To Work in Germany’s Community Service Program
After the first few months, one of Germany’s pilot projects—requiring unemployed asylum seekers to enroll in community service or have their social benefits cut—has produced abysmal results, as every other migrant with work obligations refused to show up, despite the incentives and threat of sanctions.
The data was reported by Udo Recktenwald, the CDU district administrator of St. Wendel in Saarland, which joined three other CDU-led districts this spring in expanding a program launched last year, hoping to serve as a successful integration model that could be later implemented across the country.
RCMP bans popular Sterling Arms R9 MK1 firearm
RCMP has declared the Sterling Arms R9 MK1 carbine a prohibited firearm, effective July 6, 2025.
This sudden reclassification impacts all models, including sub-models 198846-1 and 198846-2.
Canadian Shooting Sports Association (CSSA) alerted its members, warning the move is a major blow to owners.
Mia Hughes: Alberta judge relies on myth that gender drugs are lifesaving
An Alberta judge has temporarily blocked the province’s ban on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for minors, ruling that denying trans-identified youth these interventions would cause “irreparable harm.”
Progressive Delusions Are Fading Fast
The cultural turnaround has begun. And I’m happy to be part of it — unlike my former friends.
The biggest downside to being blocked by progressive former friends — like most in my old Hollywood circle — is I don’t get to observe their total breakdown as the liberal dreamworld crumbles around them. Yet every argument I made to them was exalted last Fourth of July, when President Trump and his gorgeous First Lady danced on the Truman Balcony as fireworks exploded over the incomparable Washington skyline. The couple were not only celebrating the 249th anniversary of the greatest country in the history of Earth but the best two weeks for any presidency in my lifetime. And though I couldn’t see or hear it, I could feel the wailing of my ex-mates all the way from the opposite coast.
Mark Carney, Canada’s ‘finance daddy,’ is having problems delivering
Hiring a new manager to fix a broken business model and mollify your biggest, angriest customer carries a grace period – that time when the new hire can make promises, assemble a team, send the right signals to stakeholders and take decisions that might otherwise spark animated resistance.
Mr. Carney has made the most of his grace period. Recent polls suggest 52.7 per cent of Canadians prefer him as prime minister versus 22.9 per cent for Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre – a margin of 29 percentage points.
