Switzerland needs to be more diverse and apparently a movie about the life of William Tell also needs to be more diverse. Someone took a look at the legend of William Tell and decided, “this needs more Muslims.”
And there we are.
The new movie adaptation of the legend of William Tell throws in some added material by giving him a Muslim family.
In the shadows of Canada’s progressive image lies an unsettling truth: for decades, the country has operated as a revolving door for the world’s most dangerous individuals. While its leaders drape themselves in virtue, professing an open-arms approach to immigration, the consequences of their recklessness have landed squarely on the doorsteps of both Canada and the United States.
The cracks in this illusion are no longer hypothetical. They are now real, violent, and all too frequent. Whether through terrorist sympathizers who slip through the system unchecked or human smugglers exploiting the vast northern border, the consequences of Canada’s willful negligence are becoming impossible to ignore.
The New York Times is afraid that the 1980s are coming back.
In a recent column, “The 1980s are back, and not in a good way,” writer Elizabeth Spires lamented that President Donald Trump has brought back the era of greed, when “being rich and preppy looked cool.” As in the Reagan era, young people are “rejecting the progressive politics of their elders.” Even fashions taken on “a slightly modernized 80s look.”
Teaching working-class young men that they benefit from ‘white privilege’ is having a detrimental effect on a generation of boys, leading to feelings of negativity and worthlessness, and driving them into the hands of dangerous influencers such as Andrew Tate.
This is the claim made by Sam Fender, the best-selling, 30-year-old musician from North Shields. As the singer told the Sunday Times yesterday, this teaching has resulted in boys from poor white backgrounds being ‘made to feel like they’re a problem’, with those from ‘nowhere towns’ being ‘shamed’ and told they weren’t underprivileged because of their skin colour. Consequently, this constant disparagement is leading many to seek consolation in misogynist online narratives, where people like Tate – whom Fender calls a ‘demagogue psycho’ – reassure them that are ‘worth something’.
On February 12, Parks Canada announced the designation of the Kamloops, B.C. Indian Residential School as a national historic site but omitted any reference to the alleged graves containing 215 missing children in an adjoining apple orchard, according to Blacklocks Reporter.
This claim is misleading. The “215 missing children” refers to a May 27, Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc (legally known as the Kamloops Indian Band) press statement of seismic implications, literally and figuratively. A ground-penetrating radar survey of the area surrounding the city’s former Indian Residential School, the band claimed, had located the “remains of 215 children who were students” of the school.
Recently, Mark Carney sat back and failed to negate the claim that he deserved credit for having saved Canadian banks from the misadventures of our American neighbours during the 2008 financial crisis. Carney can claim no such credit. In actuality, there are historical reasons for Canada’s lack of vulnerability to such financial upsets, including a divergent institutional pathway and regulatory changes recommended by Canadian Supreme Court Judge Willard Estey that safeguarded Canada’s banking system from the financial crisis.
Elon Musk and his DOGE team aren’t slowing down efforts to rid the federal government of waste, fraud, abuse and redundancies. But their actions are forcing the deep state into a corner and they appear to be plotting to strike back.
WASHINGTON – Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly said Monday that Canada needs to send the message it will “fight back” after U.S. President Donald Trump said steep tariffs on Canadian and Mexican products are indeed coming next week.
In a press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House on Monday, Trump was asked directly whether he was moving ahead with levies against America’s closest neighbours.
“The tariffs are going forward on time, on schedule,” Trump said.
A few assumptions to start.
Mark Carney will handily win the federal Liberal party’s nomination, become Prime Minister, and march — more or less straightaway — into Rideau Hall to ask the Governor General to call an election.
During the contest that follows, U.S. President Donald Trump will not suddenly decide to take his foot off the gas. He will continue to bully, intimidate, and harass Canada. He will impose more tariffs, dangle new threats, and heighten economic pressure. He will continue his campaign of extranational humiliation.
In other words, the current crisis will not just persist — it will escalate.
Hey white women, according to this person who I think is a white man, we need to understand our privilege.
Also we are going to get people killed. Is this considered “mansplaining?” pic.twitter.com/yUFa3KYJls

The thieves stealthily board eastbound freight trains, hiding out until they reach lonely stretches of the Mojave Desert or high plains far from towns. They slash an air brake hose, causing the mile-long line of railcars to screech to an emergency stop.
Then, they go shopping.
That’s the modus operandi described by investigators in a string of at least 10 heists targeting BNSF trains in California and Arizona since last March. All but one resulted in the theft of Nike sneakers, their combined value approaching $2 million, according to investigators.
The “intelligence community” is one of the most powerful parts of the American national security apparatus. In theory, it works tirelessly to keep the nation safe. But according to internal documents that we obtained, some intelligence agency employees have another on-the-job priority: sex chats.
We have cultivated sources within the National Security Agency—one current employee and one former employee—who have provided chat logs from the NSA’s Intelink messaging program. According to an NSA press official, “All NSA employees sign agreements stating that publishing non-mission related material on Intelink is a usage violation and will result in disciplinary action.” Nonetheless, these logs, dating back two years, are lurid, featuring wide-ranging discussions of sex, kink, polyamory, and castration.

Members of six of Canada’s billionaire families have donated the legal maximum to Mark Carney’s Liberal leadership campaign, according to an Investigative Journalism Foundation analysis of the first interim financial disclosures published by Elections Canada.
Carney raised $1.9 million overall, far more than any other leadership candidate. He is also dominating the polls and has 83 MPs supporting him compared to former finance minister Chrystia Freeland’s 26.
