WARMINGTON: ‘Deeply offensive’ — Remembrance Day poppy exploited to honour Hamas leader

Not Hamas terrorists.

There are few things more vile than hijacking the poppy to honour the death of a murderous terror leader. But it has happened. It seems, there’s no shame or honour anymore.

No word from Trudeau about this?

The three reasons Trump won

Bishop Butler once observed that probability is “the very guide of life.” This is true. It follows that possibility is cheap, an errant muse. Yes, we must stash away in the back of our mind the admonition that “in this life… we must always distinguish between the Unlikely and the Impossible” (that’s the philosopher R. Psmith, courtesy of P.G. Wodehouse). Nevertheless, we should not run our lives or write our columns on that basis.

“Why Trump won.” That is my assignment. I shall treat it as a declaration, not a question. And even though I write before the returns are in, I can give you the reasons. After all, I have been predicting that Donald Trump would win “in a landslide” at least since July.

The Intifada Is Globalized

An anti-Semitic rampage in Amsterdam sends a disturbing message to the West.

One of the most harrowing aspects of the Hamas-led massacre on October 7, 2023, which claimed the lives of 1,200 Israelis, was the glee with which the Palestinian terrorists livestreamed their atrocities for the world to see. Just 13 months later, Jews on social media were once again confronted with footage of an anti-Semitic rampage, one that shook Amsterdam on Thursday evening, following a soccer match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax.

From ‘maple syrup MAGA’ to ‘Team Canada’: Why Liberals shouldn’t count on Poilievre as they navigate Trump

OTTAWA — If Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is counting on his Conservative opponent to offer support as the Liberals navigate a second Donald Trump presidency, he shouldn’t.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has spent the days since the president-elect’s win taking aim at how Trudeau handled his last administration. He lambasted policies like the carbon tax as making Canada less competitive, and said Trudeau was too weak to stop the U.S. from reimposing tariffs on softwood lumber, amid anxieties about Trump’s threat to slap a 10 per cent one on global imports.

Peace in the Middle East: The First Step

To embark on the path toward sustainable peace in the Middle East, it is essential to confront a fundamental truth: without addressing a crucial first step, peace across the region will remain nothing more than an illusion. This first step lies in directly confronting and ultimately changing the root cause of much of the ongoing conflict, violence, and terrorism — namely, the Islamist regime in Iran.

Over the decades, Iran’s regime has embedded itself deeply within the region’s crises, stoking unrest and sponsoring terrorism. If the Middle East is to see any genuine peace and stability, a transformation of Iran’s regime is essential.

Qatar orders Hamas to leave in major blow to terror group’s leaders

Qatar has ordered Hamas to leave the country following US pressure in a major blow to the terror group’s leaders who have long lived there in comfort.

Doha reportedly told Hamas around 10 days ago it was “no longer welcome” after the US complained the group should not have refuge in the Gulf country.

In the final weeks of his presidency, Joe Biden had been urged to pressure Qatar over hosting the potential next generation of Hamas leaders.

I bet Justin will offer sanctuary.

Canadian mainstream media reacts with disdain to Trump victory in US election

While it is no surprise most U.S. legacy media outlets melted down when it became clear Donald Trump won Tuesday’s presidential election, state-funded Canadian media outlets had meltdowns of their own, with some even going as far as saying his campaign was “directly out of Hitler’s playbook.”

Trump’s massive and historic victory on Tuesday had some Canadian legacy media pundits lash out at Trump, showing obvious favoritism to Kamala Harris, who lost the popular vote by a wide margin.


Is this the CBC Prez? She sounds like Canadian media.

Rasmussen Reports Completely Vindicated by 2024 Election Results

During this election, many of us on both sides were obsessed with polls, betting markets, rally sizes, and any sort of tea leaves we could read to gauge where this election stood. In my extensive coverage of the polls this year, one thing that stood out was how the left refused to accept the results of polling that didn’t tell them what they wanted to hear. This happens on both sides, but from what I could see, if people on the right thought a poll was suspicious, they would look at the crosstabs and tell you why it was wrong.

The backtracking and grovelling by Trump’s biggest critics

Not since a “hot mic” caught David Cameron discussing Queen Elizabeth’s verdict on Scottish independence has there been so much backpedalling by high-profile politicians.

In the wake of Donald Trump’s victory in the US election this week, a host of Left-wingers and other leaders who castigated him in the past – probably assuming he was more likely to go to jail than return to the White House – have been rushing out statements, congratulating the Republican on his sensational win and saying how much they cannot wait to work with him.

Hollywood Elites Who Vowed to Flee U.S. Mocked After Trump Wins Again: ‘Don’t Go to Canada with Your TDS. They’ll Recommend Suicide’

Remember the gilded Hollywood elites who vowed they would flee the country if former President Donald Trump won the election and returned to the White House?

They included Bruce Springsteen, Cher, Samuel L. Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, George Lopez, Miley Cyrus, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, Amy Schumer, and Lena Dunham. Even Barbra Streisand vowed to move to Australia or Canada.
