Geoff Russ: Canada should follow Britain’s lead on immigration

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer did something extraordinary and unexpected last week: he publicly acknowledged that his country’s immigration system is broken.

Working Out Is Right Wing, and That’s a Good Thing

The media has a new villain: fitness

According to recent articles, engaging in physical exercise is now linked to right-wing extremism. The narrative suggests that lifting weights, building discipline, and taking responsibility for your body are somehow dangerous acts. The Guardian claims that getting in shape could turn you into a “right-wing jerk,” while TIME runs pieces on “the white supremacist origins of exercise.” MSNBC warns that during the pandemic, workout trends ended up leading to “extreme” ideologies.

Peter Menzies: With mainstream media in bed with the Liberals, Canada needs independent journalism more than ever

If not for independent media, Canadians would have no insight whatsoever into the increasing codependence between the nation’s news organizations and the Liberal Party of Canada.

What began as what was billed as a harmless and temporary little tax credit to help major publishers through a period of digital transition has grown so minaciously that major titles are now openly displaying concern for their financial sustainability should the Liberals lose an election.

Patriotic white engineers: Get out!

Hamas officials celebrate Nelson Mandela in South Africa

If you are a skilled white engineer who wants to develop South African industry, if you are a dynamic white entrepreneur who wants to employ a lot of people, if you are a proficient skilled white man with a driving ambition to make the South African economy grow faster, then the ANC government has a message for you: get out! Nor is the ANC alone in thinking this. Editorials in our mainstream media think the same: successful white businessmen, engineers, scientists, IT specialists and technicians are racist and unpatriotic.

Fertility Clinic Bomber Provides a Glimpse of the True End Game of the Culture of Death

‘Pro-Mortalists’ are the next iteration of our society’s culture of death.

While some in the media attempted to portray the bomber of the Palm Springs fertility clinic as a right-wing anti-abortion zealot, the person taking credit for the bombing, Guy Edward Bartkus, 25, of Twentynine Palms, describes himself on X as a “pro-mortalist” which is an ideology that celebrates death and opposes the creation of all new life.

It’s exhausting being Jewish: It’s Groundhog day every day

Hamas support rally Toronto

Warning: It will be exhausting reading this.

As a Jew, I not only worry about the hate in Canada, where I live, I worry about Israel, the Jewish homeland. How many Polish people living outside Poland worry about Poland; or Germans worry about Germany, or British worry about Britain-oh wait-they should be worried about Britain.

I just finished my 74th year. I am exhausted. Not from my age. From being Jewish.

The fight for the right to be Jewish and left alone never ends. Here is the latest missive from Muslims.

What is really being taught to our children in history lessons?

History is an area of remarkable success in our schools thanks to recent education reforms. However, these impressive strides forward risk being undermined by a new wave of activism in classrooms.

Following the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, 83 per cent of schools have made changes to ‘diversify’ or ‘decolonise’ their curriculums in recent years. In many cases, this shake-up has brought politicised and one-sided narratives into schools. Inaccurate and poor-quality teaching resources are being used to give students a mistaken impression of the past.

AGAR: Numbers mean nothing when it comes to woke agendas

Yet another renaming will take place in Toronto, supposedly to protect the safety and feelings of minorities.

Did anyone ask the minorities if that is what they want?

The latest is the plan to rename Dundas TTC station, which follows the renaming of Yonge-Dundas Square to the slave nation-inspired word Sankofa. Get the cruel — and one would think counter-productive — irony?

Whoopi Claims: No Biden ‘Health Cover-Up,’ Trump Could Be Deported

Clean up on aisle ABC. Far-left moderator of The View, Whoopi Goldberg was busy during Monday’s episode as she desperately tried to clean up the growing scandal surrounding former President Biden’s recently disclosed prostate cancer diagnosis. While claiming that there was no way Biden had known about the cancer while president, she went on to falsely claim that President Trump’s push to end birthright citizenship could lead to him getting rounded up by ICE and deported to Germany.

What can Toronto’s real estate industry do to solve the city’s big problem of small condos?

In Toronto, towers upon towers of small condo units fill block after block downtown. Condo sales across the board are slumping in Canada’s biggest cities as supply soars and demand shrinks. And the hardest units to sell are often the tiniest.

Bachelor and one bedroom units in the Toronto area made up 20 per cent of condo sales in the last quarter of 2024, according to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board. Bigger units, such as one bedroom plus den, two bedrooms and two bedrooms plus den, collectively made up 72 per cent of sales.

One bedrooms are also fetching less on the rental market — the average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Toronto has dropped 5.8 per cent year-over-year, according to data from rental unit listing site Rentals.ca, while that decline is even steeper in some other Canadian cities.

Trump vows to investigate Beyoncé and Bruce Springsteen

President Trump has called for an investigation into celebrities who supported Kamala Harris during the election, accusing stars including Bruce Springsteen and Beyoncé of “illegal campaign contributions”.

The president criticised Harris for her celebrity-filled rallies in the final weeks of the 2024 election, singling out Springsteen, Beyoncé, U2’s Bono and the billionaire talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

“How much did Kamala Harris pay Bruce Springsteen for his poor performance during her campaign for president? Why did he accept that money if he is such a fan of hers? Isn’t that a major and illegal campaign contribution?” Trump wrote in block capitals on his Truth Social platform. “What about Beyoncé? … And how much went to Oprah, and Bono???”

Smith calls Quebec’s new openness to pipeline projects ‘a massive breakthrough’

Speaking on her weekend morning radio program, Your Province, Your Premier, on Saturday, Smith said she has been trying to lobby Legault to further develop Quebec’s natural gas resources.

“Every time I saw him, he said, ‘There’s no social acceptability for it,’ until recently,” Smith said.
