To be fair, a mainstream media outlet reported the story this time. On February 20, a week after the attack, Newsweek published an article titled “70 Christians Beheaded in Church: What We Know,” providing key details of the story.
But otherwise, more than two weeks later, one of the most horrific attacks in history against Christians has been completely ignored by the mainstream media.
Mark Carney says he’s the pragmatist to lead Canada through turbulent times. As evidence he offers his stewardship of the Bank of Canada through the 2008 financial crisis and the Bank of England through the tumult that followed Brexit.
When it comes to politics, however, the former Goldman Sachs banker is a relative novice. He has never served in Canada’s parliament and will soon become the country’s first prime minister to serve without having been an MP.
Mark Carney is at it again. He tells you what you want to hear, but leaves out the part that he doesn't want you to know.
Here are two clips. One is from tonight, the other is from a disastrous interview in January.
He says that he is going to eliminate the CONSUMER carbon tax.… pic.twitter.com/HV1p1AWo7E

Adam Boehler, the US Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs, stated on March 9 that he did not rule out the possibility of reaching a long-term truce between Israel and the Iran-backed Palestinian terrorist group Hamas in the Gaza Strip. He also did not rule out the possibility that Hamas would agree to lay down its weapons, saying:
“I think there’s an answer here, and I think the answer is that Hamas lays down their arms. We exchange prisoners, and they [Hamas] go into a long-term truce, where they don’t fight, they’re not part of any political party, and that gives us lots of cooling-off time.”
Ottawa’s deficit is projected to be just under $50 billion this year. According to the latest projections, it’s set to remain above $20 billion until at least 2030.
The risk is undoubtedly to the downside. The uncertainty caused by the threat of U.S. tariffs and now the fallout from their imposition will lower the GDP projections underpinning the government’s fiscal plan. It’s quite likely therefore that the deficit will be higher—particularly this year and next year.
Bias by omission on the PBS weekly news roundtable Washington Week with The Atlantic, as the panel of journalists played dumb about why Trump would cancel federal grant money from Columbia University, describing it as a typical Trumpian power grab. Whatever could have been happening there recently to validate such a move?
(Besides months of anti-Semitic campouts last year and the harassment of Jewish students and the chanting of homicidal slogans in the wake of Hamas’s terrorist invasion of Israel, of course.)
Just three more years of deficit to invest in growing the Canadian economy, and then we’ll get right back to balance.
If Mark Carney’s pledge sounds like something you’ve heard before, that’s because Justin Trudeau made a very similar commitment a mere ten years ago.
To refresh your memory, Canada was undergoing what is called a technical recession during the 2015 election campaign.
In a typical year, elections on the sparsely populated island of Greenland would probably go unnoticed by the rest of the world. However, with President Trump’s vow that “one way or another” America will acquire it, the international spotlight is turning to the frigid island.
Newly-appointed Liberal leader Mark Carney told reporters on Parliament Hill Monday afternoon that though he is not yet installed in the role of prime minister, it won’t be long.
“I’m not prime minister yet,” replied Carney when asked about next steps in the trade war with President Donald Trump.
JD Vance may be the vice president of the United States, but he’s also the father of three young children. On Saturday, he was spending a little quality time with his youngest child in Cincinnati — or trying to anyway — when a group of pro-Ukraine protesters followed them and shouted at the three-year-old little girl, making her “anxious and scared.”
After reminding Canadians of the recent tariff threats and the musing of Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state, we asked if the Canadian government should look into joining the European Union. 44% of Canadians think that the Canadian government definitely or probably should look into joining the European Union, while 34% are opposed to it. About 1 in 4 Canadians are unsure about the suggestion.
As if the Liberals and NDP aren’t already economy wreckers now they want the EU to help!
Socialist Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has shocked many for including a transgender punk rocker in his rally who belted out a song containing offensive lyrics that are being blasted as “pure evil.”
The Sanders rally which drew about 3,500 attendees occurred in Somers, Wisconsin, on Friday where Sanders — who is working to become the face of Trump resistance — invited punker Laura Jane Grace, the transgender head of the band Against Me!, to perform for the left-wing crowd.
As widely expected, Mark Carney has become the new Liberal party of Canada leader — and will become Canada’s next prime minister.
The former Bank of England and Bank of Canada governor won by an overwhelming margin on Sunday, taking 85.9 percent of the vote. Former Liberal deputy prime minister and finance minister Chrystia Freeland finished a distant second with 8 percent. Carney will now meet with outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to set a timetable for the transition of power.
Foul play “not been ruled out” by the White House after jet fuel-carrying tanker ship, indirectly contracted to the U.S. Department of Defence as part of its “times of need” emergency reserve, burns off the east coast of the United Kingdom after it was struck by a container ship.
OTTAWA — Mark Carney may have been crowned leader of the Liberal party by casting himself as a political outsider, but his skills as a politician need work, say some of his supporters.
Carney walked into an Ottawa convention centre Sunday as the presumed front-runner of the four candidates who were vying to replace Justin Trudeau as leader and prime minister.
“@MarkJCarney …climate change from a human mortality perspective will be the equivalent of a coronavirus crisis every year from the middle of this century, and every year, not just a one-off event. So it is an issue that needs to be addressed now.” https://t.co/fiSgYHAvGe

Foreigners are convicted of up to a quarter of sex crimes, according to the first data analysis of its kind.
Data from the Ministry of Justice, obtained under freedom of information laws, show that 15 per cent of sexual offences, including rape, were accounted for by foreign nationals between 2021 and 2023.
A further eight per cent of convictions were recorded as unknown nationalities.
