I now believe that “mental illness” means “devout Muslim”.
Canadian refugee advocates, federal government departments and immigration lawyers are bracing for a potential influx of asylum claimants following U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive orders this week.
But as they prepare, they all say they have no idea what exactly to expect.

Rights groups warn Trump executive order would restore Muslim ‘travel ban’
WASHINGTON, Jan 22 (Reuters) – U.S. civil rights groups are warning that an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Monday lays the groundwork for reinstatement of a ban on travelers from predominantly Muslim or Arab countries.
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) said the new order relied on the same statutory authority used to justify Trump’s 2017 travel ban and offered even “wider latitude to use ideological exclusion to deny visa requests and remove individuals” who had already entered the country. It unveiled a new 24-hour hotline (844-232-9955) to help those affected.
Pierre Poilievre says he is ‘only aware’ of two genders
OTTAWA—Days after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged that his administration would only recognize two genders, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he’s not “aware” of any genders aside from “men and women” — but said Ottawa should steer clear of the issue.
In a televised interview with CP24 on Wednesday, Poilievre was asked if he agreed with Trump’s order that the U.S. government should recognize only males and females.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers hit the ground running this week, arresting multiple violent offenders in sanctuary cities, including a hostile Haitian gang member with a lengthy rap sheet who said he “ain’t going back to Haiti” and raged “F–k Trump, Biden forever!”
ICE officers in Boston made eight noteworthy arrests, including multiple MS-13 gang members, murder and rape suspects and the Haitian gang member, with 18 recent convictions, according to Fox News, who rode along with ICE for the arrests.

Boy, it is a good thing Alberta Premier Danielle Smith didn’t listen to the self-styled smart set.
It is a good thing Smith stood her ground and ignored the voices telling her to sign on to Team Canada and forget about standing up for Alberta and the oilpatch.
You want some good news.
The Southport killer Axel Rudakubana has been jailed for a minimum of 52 years for the “ferocious” and “sadistic” murders of three young girls and attempted murder of 10 others at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class.
The 18-year-old refused to appear in the dock when a judge said the teenager would likely “never be released and he will be in custody for all his life” for the “harrowing and atrocious premeditated attack” last summer.
The full horror of his actions was laid bare at Liverpool crown court on Thursday when it emerged that Rudakubana had boasted of his attack shortly after being arrested on 29 July last year.
Hard-working, photogenic Goldman Sachs alumnus with more than a decade’s experience running two G7 central banks seeks new (short-lived?) role at the top of Canadian politics.
To Mark Carney’s supporters, the 59-year-old former governor of the Bank of England has the perfect CV to fill Justin Trudeau’s shoes as leader of the Liberal Party and prime minister of Canada. After graduating from Harvard and Oxford and spending 13 years as an investment banker, in which he simultaneously made a fortune and advised the African National Congress (ANC) in post-apartheid South Africa, he took over the Bank of Canada in 2008 at the age of 42. There, he successfully limited the country’s exposure to the global financial crisis by forcing his former investment banking colleagues to reserve more capital. In 2010, Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
The 17-year-old Nashville school shooter who killed a teenage girl before turning the gun on himself allegedly left a dark trail of hateful online postings and appeared to be a “self-loathing incel,” according to the Anti-Defamation League.
Teen shooter Solomon Henderson expressed a wide array of troubling views in a purported manifesto and on social media before gunning down 16-year-old Josselin Corea Escalante at Antioch High School on Wednesday, ADL representative Carla Hill told The Post Wednesday night.
… “What happens on the incel forums … is that people of color are told the only reason they’re incels is because of their color and so it pushes them toward other extreme ideology that he apparently took on,” Hill said.
Damn those White supremacists they’re making Black Incels!

U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened 25-per-cent tariffs on goods from Canada as early as Feb. 1 over his concerns the country has failed to stem illegal migration and fentanyl smuggling into American territory.
President Donald Trump attacked Bank of America for failing to lend to conservatives during a sudden attack during a livestream speech to execs and elites in Davos.
The sudden blast came in an angry speech where Trump vowed to slap tariffs on countries that don’t manufacture inside the U.S. and demanded OPEC lower oil prices.
During a question-and-answer period, the bank’s CEO Brian Moynihan asked a softball question about how his executive orders would impact his push for economic growth and market growth.

In the new world order inaugurated in Washington this week, the unthinkable is suddenly plausible.
Following Donald Trump’s inauguration, Grand Chief Stewart Phillip, president of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, came out in support of building oil pipelines to the Pacific Coast.
That is an almost unbelievable coming from someone who was among the most prominent opponents of the proposed Northern Gateway pipeline that would have exported diluted bitumen from the oil sands in Alberta to a marine terminal in Kitimat, B.C., for transportation to Asian markets via oil tankers. The Enbridge project was killed by the Trudeau government in 2016 .

During his inaugural address, President Donald Trump doubled down on his assertion that China runs the Panama Canal.
“China is operating the Panama Canal and we didn’t give it to China. We gave it to Panama and we’re taking it back,” he said.
The 51-mile (82km) Panama Canal cuts across the Central American nation and is the main link between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
The ChiComs do influence operations despite what the Beebs China squish says.
The US is right to be concerned about China’s influence over the Panama Canal
