Donald Trump said Tuesday he has agreed to a two-week ceasefire in Iran.
“I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks,” the US president wrote on social media. “This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE!”
CNN Taps Lefty-Activist General to Warn Trump Iran Strikes Could Be ‘War Crimes’
On Tuesday’s CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish turned to retired Brigadier General Steven M. Anderson to assess President Trump’s potential expansion of military strikes on Iran.
Anderson repeatedly warned that targeting infrastructure such as bridges, power plants, and water facilities could amount to “war crimes,” even suggesting U.S. troops could be put in the position of refusing “illegal” orders.
House prices dropping in Canada’s most expensive cities, but still out of reach for many
Housing prices are dipping in Canada’s priciest markets, but real estate experts say it’s not necessarily the break for which potential first-time homebuyers have been waiting — and that break may never come.
TD Economics said in a report last week that it expects home prices to slide 0.3 per cent across Canada this year, after a weak performance in the market over the last two quarters, with Ontario and B.C. facing the biggest drops.
Despotic, Neurotic, and Likely Psychotic: Liberals Have Become the Insane Clown Stasi
What do fat, blue-haired tundra wookiess, women with weeners, and your grandma in her frog costume have in common? They are all Democrats, and they are nuttier than elephant patties. Forecast: gonzo, with a chance of explosive violence and/or a stupid costume.

WARMINGTON: Trump offers grace to Canada but threatens Iran’s ‘civilization will die tonight’
American President Donald J. Trump has threatened Iran that their “whole civilization will die tonight” if they don’t surrender the Strait of Hormuz immediately.
On his Truth Social account, he wrote, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, who knows?”
Vance Accuses EU of ‘Election Interference‘ Against Hungary‘s Orbán
U.S. Vice President JD Vance has accused Eurocrats in Brussels of meddling against Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in a bid to topple the MAGA ally in Budapest at this week’s parliamentary elections.
In a press conference from the Hungarian capital just days before voters will head to the polls to select the next parliament, and therefore the next prime minister, Vice President Vance said that he was not there to tell citizens who to vote for, but merely to show support for Prime Minister Orbán, whom he described as the “rare exception” among leaders in Europe willing to stand up in defence of Western and Christian civilization.
Mark Carney urges restraint as Donald Trump threatens Iran with devastating strike
OTTAWA—Hours after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to end “a whole civilization” in Iran with a deadly bombing planned today, Prime Minister Mark Carney urged “all parties” in the Middle East crisis to respect international law on war and humanitarian protections.
Responding to media questions about Trump’s threat against Iran that warned “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Carney said he has privately called for restraint as the threat of more devastating strikes loomed large.
Kidnapped American journalist Shelly Kittleson set to be released, says Iran-backed Kataib Hezbollah
An American journalist will reportedly be released by an Iranian-backed militia a week after she was kidnapped in Baghdad — on the condition that she leaves Iraq immediately.
The release of Shelly Kittleson, 49, from Monticello, Wisconsin, was seemingly confirmed in a post on the encrypted social messaging app Telegram by Abu Mujahid Aasaf, the security chief of Hezbollah Brigades.
World Cup Grift Expected To Soak Tax Payers For 1 Billion Dollars
Why Montreal isn’t hosting the World Cup — and FIFA’s rigid rules for Toronto, Vancouver
The 13 FIFA World Cup matches that will take place on Canadian soil are expected to cost at least $1 billion in taxpayer money, according to Radio-Canada’s investigative program Enquête.
Through an access-to-information request, it obtained thousands of documents related to the international competition, which will be played in various cities in the U.S., Mexico and Canada.
Montreal withdrew its candidacy in July 2021.
US Strikes Kharg Island Weapons Depots and Air Defense Facilities in ‘Message’ to Tehran Ahead of Trump’s Deadline
The United States bombed dozens of weapons depots and air defense facilities on Kharg Island overnight in a “message” to Tehran about what will happen if the Islamic Republic does not accept the terms of President Donald Trump’s ceasefire deal by 8 p.m. Tuesday.
Mark Milke: DEI has made society more racist
If there’s a buzzword that’s captured corporate Canada, government and academia over the past decade, it’s “diversity.” When patched together with “equity” and “inclusion,” or DEI for short, it’s assumed to be excellent policy that’s anchored in fairness and equality. For its proponents, it is seen as an extension of civil rights movements that began in the 1950s in Canada and the United States.
But nice-sounding words are not enough when it comes to treating people as equal in law and policy, or building a flourishing country with equal opportunity for all.
Iran calls on ‘young people’ to form human chains around power plants
Iranian officials called on “young people” to form human chains around the country’s power plants, in a desperate bid to ward off promised U.S. airstrikes on the country’s power grid.
Tuesday will mark the end of President Donald Trump’s delayed deadline for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz and strike a deal, or face the destruction of its power plants. With no signs of Iranian and U.S. negotiators nearing a deal, Tuesday will see whether Trump will follow through on his threats. As a last-ditch defense measure, lacking air defenses to resist the strikes, Iranian officials have resorted to calling on the country’s youth to act as human shields, betting that Washington will shy away from extensive civilian casualties.
Meanwhile the regime’s children live it up in the west.

Row over ‘virtual gated community’ AI surveillance plan in Toronto neighbourhood
A row has broken out in one of Canada’s wealthiest neighbourhoods over plans to use an AI-powered surveillance system to create the country’s first “virtual gated community” to combat surging property crime.
Crime rates in Toronto as a whole are dropping but residents of Rosedale have been left on edge by a sustained rise in home invasions, with robbers targeting the tree-lined neighbourhood at a rate more than double the city average. Break-ins and thefts remain the third highest per capita in Toronto.

Shaken by break-ins, an affluent Toronto neighbourhood takes action
The squad of private security cars fans out after nightfall, their little rooftop lights flashing yellow against the historic homes and manicured hedges of Rosedale. Their drivers patrol the streets slowly, stopping to inspect parked cars and following any suspicious drivers.
Other unmarked security vehicles idle nearby, their drivers wearing bulletproof vests under their shirts, ready to respond to break-ins in six minutes or less.
Inside those graceful homes, residents have prepared crude fortifications: door braces, newly installed alarms, hammer-proof glass.

Europe mulls the prospect of a NATO without the US
“NATO is broken,” says Ivo Daalder, not mincing his words. The former US ambassador to the transatlantic alliance believes that tensions between Donald Trump and European allies over the Iran war have thrust NATO, which turned 77 years old this month, into the “worst crisis” in its history. But alarm bells have been ringing for some time now. Already a year ago, Daalder published an article outlining how European member states might reconstruct NATO to function without the US, around whose leadership the organization was built.
How Canadian military members violated intelligence-gathering rules during COVID-19
Canadian Armed Forces members used their own personal social media accounts, computers and networks at home during the COVID-19 pandemic and gathered information about Canadians, violating intelligence-gathering rules, according to a newly released report.
The internal military report obtained by CBC News provides a new look behind the scenes at how a controversial military operation went so wrong.
“Everything you could imagine in a military operation went wrong in this case,” said national security expert Wesley Wark.
