Canada is losing businesses faster than it can create new ones: CFIB says

The Canadian economy is losing businesses faster than it can create new ones, and it is time for federal and provincial governments to act to reverse this trend, says the Canadian Federation of Independent Business.

A new report by the organization, calls it an “entrepreneurial drought,” which it defines as a year or more in which “business entry rates are strictly lower than business exit rates.”

It says the drought has been ongoing since 2024, making it the worst period for entrepreneurs outside of the pandemic.

Ontario judge decries justice system for prioritizing foreign-born criminals over their Canadian victims

Ontario judge decries justice system for prioritizing foreign-born criminals over their Canadian victims

An Ontario judge has launched a remarkable attack on the Canadian judiciary, arguing that the justice system is “at an inflexion point” and must decide whether to prioritize the needs of vulnerable Canadians or criminals who have abused them.

Justice Antonio Skarica’s broadside on his fellow judges came as he sentenced a Nigerian university student who extorted a Canadian woman and left her in “constant fear” by sharing her intimate image. He sentenced Boss Omeire to 28 months in prison in Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice.

Starmer and Macron to cut Trump out of Hormuz patrols

Starmer and Macron to cut Trump out of Hormuz patrols

Sir Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron are cutting Donald Trump out of plans to patrol the Strait of Hormuz once the war against Iran is over.

The two leaders are piecing together a coalition of mostly European countries in a similar alliance to the French and British-led “coalition of the willing” nations working on Ukraine.

The idea is to send mine-sweeping and other vessels to clear the shipping lane and give companies the confidence to use the strait once the fighting is finished.

But the plan risks angering the mercurial Mr Trump, who has repeatedly castigated his Nato allies for failing to join his war and threatened to reconsider membership of the alliance.

European leaders have insisted this is not their war and ignored US calls to send warships to the strait.

Floor crossings say something about Poilievre, but more about Carney (and Trump)

Floor crossings say something about Poilievre, but more about Carney (and Trump)

A slave labour apologist, chloroquine promoter and blue Albertan all walk into a bar …

Only it’s not a joke, and they didn’t walk into a bar. Michael Ma, Marilyn Gladu and Matt Jereroux are three former Conservative MPs who have walked into the Liberal caucus, where they found a Red Tory, Chris d’Entremont, already tickling the party ivories.

Welcome to Mark Carney’s Casablanca, where the Ottawa equivalent of Rick’s Cafe is now filling up with cast offs from the Conservatives and NDP. And I am shocked — shocked — to find that politics is going on here.

Fake Graves Nonsense Spewing Ex BC chief says she ‘wishes’ Widdowson was ‘raped’ to ‘understand’ residential school violence

New Documents Reveal Democrats’ Plot To Frame Trump With Ukraine Call

New Documents Reveal Democrats’ Plot To Frame Trump With Ukraine Call

After seven long years, key documents surrounding the Ukraine impeachment saga have finally been released by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, following Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s declassification. They include previously unreleased interview transcripts with the Inspector General as well as related materials. They tell a story many of us suspected at the time, but which now appears even more disturbing and more elaborate than originally understood.

The newly released documents show a coordinated effort to frame President Trump over a phone call with Ukrainian President Zelensky. A manufactured narrative was elevated and then used by Congress in an attempt to overturn the outcome of an election and, effectively, shape the next one by pursuing impeachment over a routine diplomatic exchange.

Avi Lewis demands Mark Carney ban stores from using personal info to set prices

OTTAWA—Taking aim at major corporations in his Parliament Hill debut, new NDP Leader Avi Lewis demanded Monday that Prime Minister Mark Carney ban what he called an “unfair” and “downright creepy” practice of “surveillance pricing,” where retailers use data to tailor prices to individual consumers.

With emerging digital tools already under scrutiny from lawmakers and regulators across the U.S., businesses have reportedly been able to hike prices and maximize profits by using artificial intelligence and algorithms to personalize prices based on things like a customer’s search history and demographic information.

Awakened by Euthanasia?

Awakened by Euthanasia?

There’s a disarming chill to seeing one portrait of the late Noelia Castillo that made the rounds once the 25-year-old gang assault victim and suicide attempter became the youngest Spaniard to be euthanized, legally, three weeks ago. Smiling coyly at the camera, her bulging eyes windows into a gentle soul, she appears to dwell in a timeless realm beyond pain and pleasure; her pallor shines a mystical glow, at once ghostly and angelic. Right-to-die advocates touting her ‘victory’ following a two-year lawsuit may be eased by her serene stare. Yet precisely in lieu of the ache and frailty that earned her passage to the afterlife, Noelia here exudes grit and vitality and resolve to overcome and sublimate. Her glare even seems to harbor clues of the life-and-death mystery, a lesson or epiphany she couldn’t have uttered in her earthly torment.

Three Muslim Migrants, Out for a Night on the Town

Three Muslim Migrants, Out for a Night on the Town

And an infidel victim.

First, three Muslim migrants — two Egyptians and one Iranian — filmed themselves getting ready for their big night on the town in Brighton, England. They were living in an asylum hotel with the British taxpayer paying all their living expenses. Properly titivated, they were then off to a nightclub, the Horizon club, for a night of drinking, drugs, dancing, chatting up the Infidel girls, and then, as a fitting finale to the evening of merry-making, in the wee hours, all three of them repeatedly raped a young English woman, in a Muslim spirit of “we can do this!” And, of course, they filmed themselves taking turns at raping her — they apparently had enough money for a video camera — for their future delectation. And once back at the hotel, as a fitting end to a night of such fun, they had a barbecue. And they filmed that, too.

Canadian Argues Assisted Suicide Is Needed to Prevent Suicide

Canada is expected to expand its euthanasia services to people suffering from mental illness in 2027.
