A man serving life in jail for ordering the murder of his niece in a so called ‘honour killing’ is suing ITV over claims he also allowed her rape.
Banaz Mahmod was aged 20 when she was killed on the orders of her father Mahmod Mahmod and uncle Ari Mahmod after she left an abusive arranged marriage.
Other family members and friends were recruited to carry out the murder and she was raped by three of her cousins before being strangled.
Margaret Atwood claims she may be “imprisoned” if she enters the United States—an absurd suggestion from one of the most celebrated progressive writers alive, and a striking example of how elites weaponize language to smear their opponents.
In a recent award acceptance speech, Atwood said: “Unlike so many writers, publishers and booksellers … I have never been imprisoned—though I may have to revise that statistic if I attempt to cross into the United States in the near future.” Coverage of the event does not record gales of laughter in response.
Four years ago today — May 27, 2021 — the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc [Kamloops] Indian Band of British Columbia issued a press statement of seismic implications, literally and figuratively. The Band claimed that a ground-penetrating radar (GPR) survey of the area surrounding the city’s former Indian Residential School had located the “remains of 215 children who were students” of the school. Despite making explosive assertions about “missing children” and “undocumented deaths,” the Band was still careful to add that, “At this time, we have more questions than answers.”
Such a note of caution didn’t stop the media, politicians and nearly everyone else from acting as if they had more answers than questions.
A number of red lights are flashing across the dashboard of Canada’s consumer credit market, according to an analysis released Tuesday by Equifax.
On everything from credit cards to mortgages, a growing share of borrowers is increasingly struggling to make their monthly debt payments, the numbers suggest. The report, which records data from the first three months of 2025, offers a gauge of the financial health of Canadian borrowers amid sputtering economic growth, rising unemployment and stubborn inflation.
Signs of strain are particularly acute among young people and those living in Ontario, with missed payments rising even as many consumers are cutting back on spending, the data suggest.
Do you know that you are a cis-male?” comedian Norm Macdonald asked a flummoxed Stephen Merchant, the co-creator of The Office, nine years ago. Macdonald explained of the peculiar “cis” prefix: “It’s a way of marginalizing a normal person.”
At least that amounts to the intent. The result of such terms marginalizes the speaker, at least when in mixed company. Self-marginalization does not work in politics. Some Democrats only recently learned this.
In the recent federal election, the Liberals and Conservatives both campaigned on lowering income taxes to ease the burden on working- and middle-class Canadians. Sure enough, an income tax cut is planned for July 1st.
This focus on tax cuts raises the question: how much of a burden are income taxes on the typical Canadian?
The “typical Canadian”—defined as the median income earner—is currently taxed at an average of just over 17 percent (federal plus provincial). The upcoming tax cut will decrease that by about half a percentage point, bringing it to just under 17 percent.

Canada’s bread price-fixing scandal stands as one of the most damaging and far-reaching corporate breaches of trust in the country’s food retail history. The recent approval of a $500-million class-action settlement by an Ontario court marks a significant, if partial, step toward accountability. But the story is far from over.
This liberal woman has canceled the Fourth of July.
I'm thankful that she's given us plenty of advance notice to make alternate plans. pic.twitter.com/Hbkb6Ydt7j

A 53-year-old man has been arrested after a car ploughed into a crowd of Liverpool supporters during their Premier League trophy parade last night. Hundreds of thousands were out on the streets to celebrate when the car collided with pedestrians on Water Street, in the heart of Liverpool city centre, shortly after 6 p.m. Twenty-seven were taken to hospital, two of them with serious injuries, while 20 were treated on the scene. Four of the injured were children. Mercifully – miraculously – no one seems to have died.
Artificial intelligence, as we currently have it, is an interesting technology, especially since it’s really just some pretty advanced if/then statements, more or less. It’s being embraced for a variety of purposes, some of which make sense and some of which doesn’t.
One area we’re seeing it used a lot is in gun detection efforts.
Politics famously make for strange bedfellows. But what’s with the federal government and the temporary foreign worker program? How are these committed progressives working hand-in-glove with big business to exploit foreigners? And why aren’t we upset?
Arguably I don’t get out much. But lately when I do travel, short distances or long, I notice that nearly everyone I deal with in hotels, restaurants, etc., and half at the supermarket checkout, are here as slave labour. How’s that woke? Or tolerable?
February 14, 2025. U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance delivers remarks in Germany, at the Munich Security Conference. The audience expects him to talk about foreign policy, geopolitics, and threats facing the world.
Instead, he says that the most worrying threat today is “the threat from within, the retreat of Europe from some of its most fundamental values.” He adds that European countries and institutions are undermining democracy and freedom of speech — and gives examples.
“A former European commissioner,” Vance states, “went on television recently and sounded delighted that the Romanian government had just annulled an entire election.”
OTTAWA – When representatives of NATO nations meet in The Hague late next month, they’re expected to dramatically hike the alliance’s defence spending target for members — the one Canada is failing to hit already.
At the last NATO summit in Washington last year, allies lined up to call out Canada for failing to meet the alliance defence spending target of two per cent of national GDP.
When Prime Minister Mark Carney attends the NATO summit next month, he’ll likely be under pressure to commit to a new defence spending target of five per cent of national GDP.
I see a real possibility of the US asserting control over “our Arctic” for national security reasons as I suspect Canada to remain lackadaisical about defense matters.
Who knows, maybe even NATO will tire of us.
