Carson Jerema: The phoney Donald Trump annexation crisis

So it turns out Donald Trump doesn’t really want to annex Canada. Seriously. Anyone who watched his news conference Tuesday, and not just the short clip shared on social media, should come away assured, as much as one can be with Trump anyway, that his comments about this country becoming the 51st state really are little more than trolling. Certainly, the U.S. president-elect repeatedly musing about absorbing Canada has never been funny, and the words themselves undermine Canadian sovereignty, but nothing Trump said Tuesday was much different than what he’s been saying for weeks.

I would consider a merger with the USA.

The TDS Patriotism on display by the same pundits who supported Trudeau’s disastrous reign shows what laughable frauds they are.

Academia’s shameful role in minimising the Muslim rape gangs

The class prejudice of the so-called experts blinded them to the sexual abuse of working-class girls.

In 2009, I completed my PhD thesis – an intense, five-year-long piece of research into the experiences and treatment of working-class women. The research was carried out on a council estate in Nottingham, which had also been my home for over 20 years. The women’s story was also my story. I explored how they had been devalued and demeaned from school onwards – by the media, politicians, charities and those on the other side of the desk in housing offices and welfare services.

Elon Musk: neo-feudal prince

He is disrupting the liberal democratic order

In a surreal cascade of events, the internet personality Andrew Tate has launched a political party. He has done this seemingly in response to a resurgence of interest in the scandal of Britain’s predominantly Pakistani Muslim “grooming gangs”, as these are euphemistically known; a fact made somewhat ironic because Tate himself, a self-declared Muslim convert, is alleged by Romanian authorities to have himself used the “loverboy” method to recruit young women into sexual exploitation.

Amy Hamm: Jagmeet Singh’s future of irrelevancy can’t come soon enough

Jagmeet Singh is about to be relegated to a footnote in Canadian history. And the footnote will probably read like a joke.

We can reasonably expect it to look something like this: “Canada’s scandal-riven Justin Trudeau era, from 2015 to 2024 also contained an odd era for the country’s ‘always a bridesmaid, never a bride’ New Democratic Party, which, from 2017 on, was led by Jagmeet Singh. After leading the party’s fall to fourth-place status in the House of Commons in 2019, Singh entered into a supply and confidence agreement with Trudeau’s minority government in 2022. He was frequently accused of using the agreement to procure his full government pension.

The Liberals could be crushed in the next election. Why would anyone want to lead them?

MY EYESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back in 2012, when Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty announced he would resign, Kathleen Wynne says many people were asking the same questions: Who would run for leadership of the provincial Liberal party and — more importantly, given its grim prospects at the time — why would anyone want to?

“I made a decision to run for the leadership in that context, fully expecting that I wouldn’t win, but also that we were on a path to lose [the next election],” Wynne — who succeeded McGuinty as both leader and premier — told CBC News.

How Justin Trudeau captured the zeitgeist, and how he lost it

Gunga Justin

TORONTO – In his early days as prime minister, Justin Trudeau was “cool.” In the year that followed his majority sweep into power, he appeared in the pages of Vogue, on the cover of a Marvel comic book and on “The Daily Show,” chatting with an up-and-coming Hasan Minhaj.

But the same strategy experts and observers say put him in the public eye and won him the youth vote in 2015 may have brought damning scrutiny as political tides changed, particularly as his rivals adopted his online style.

The Liberals open the door to foreign interference

It has come to our attention over the past few years that Canada has a foreign interference problem, and that a key vulnerability is the lax rules governing federal-party nomination and leadership campaigns.

Maybe you heard about it, too. If so, could you please let the Liberal Party of Canada know? Its brain trust appears not to have a clue and so far is not rewriting its membership rules to shield its upcoming leadership race from meddling.

That race, necessitated by Justin Trudeau’s impending resignation, will not be just any leadership contest, because the winner will automatically become prime minister of Canada.

Canadian Doctors Suggest Harvesting Organs From Euthanasia Patients Before They’re Dead

Canadian doctors have suggested killing euthanasia victims by taking their organs, according to multiple reports, whistleblowers, and public talks. Medical freedom advocates are documenting emerging ties between “medical assistance in dying” (MAID) and organ harvesting.

“The best use of my organs, if I’m going to receive a medically assisted death, might be to not first kill me and then retrieve my organs, but to have my mode of death — as we medically consider death now — to be to retrieve my organs,” said Rob Sibbald, an ethicist of the London Health Sciences Centre in Ontario.

Meta Says Fact-Checkers Were the Problem. Fact-Checkers Rule That False.

Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s chief executive, blamed the company’s fact-checking partners for some of Facebook’s moderation issues, saying in a video that “fact-checkers have been too politically biased” and have “destroyed more trust than they created.”

Fact-checking groups that worked with Meta have taken issue with that characterization, saying they had no role in deciding what the company did with the content that was fact-checked.

“I don’t believe we were doing anything, in any form, with bias,” said Neil Brown, the president of the Poynter Institute, a global nonprofit that runs PolitiFact, one of Meta’s fact-checking partners. “There’s a mountain of what could be checked, and we were grabbing what we could.”

Terrorist threat to Canada ‘has rarely been higher,’ report says

The terrorist threat in Canada “has rarely been higher,” according to a report released on Wednesday in the aftermath of the New Year’s Day attack in New Orleans.

“The bottom line: Terrorism in Canada is on the rise,” said the study, which found a “statistically significant” surge in terrorism charges between 2007 and 2024.

A Global News investigation in November linked ISIS to a surging number of cases across Canada since 2023. Many involved youths, including minors as young as 15.

Under Trudeau: Record illegal crossings at border, terrorism threats

(The Center Square) – As Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his plan to resign on Monday, questions remain about his administration’s border security policies and increased terrorism threats in Canada that partially contributed to the demands for his resignation.

At a news conference on Monday, Trudeau said he planned to resign after his party picked a replacement. Critics argue it was an attempt to avoid a vote of no confidence when parliament reconvenes on Jan. 27, which would prompt a call for a new election.
