NATO Commits Suicide — All We Can Do Is Bury It

NATO Commits Suicide — All We Can Do Is Bury It

For years now, I’ve written, with something between sadness and exasperation, that NATO is dying. Despite pious pronouncements to the contrary, not even the Russian invasion of Ukraine has done much to bring NATO back to its original purpose, namely protecting Europe against a Russian threat. When Germany and other European countries chose climate change fantasy — and Russian oil — over energy independence, they betrayed a fundamental unseriousness about the threat posed by Vladimir Putin’s overweening ambitions.

Alberta will rid ideology from schools just as soon as it stops dogs from barking

Alberta will rid ideology from schools just as soon as it stops dogs from barking

Alberta’s new legislation limiting “ideology” in classrooms is its own type of ideological flag – which is ironic, since one of the changes proposed by Bill 25 is to prohibit, with limited exceptions, the display of all flags other than Canada’s and Alberta’s.

This Bill 25 flag, also known as the “Act to Remove Politics and Ideology from Classrooms and Amend the Education Act, 2026,” is multi-functional. On paper, is it designed to “ensure that classrooms remain neutral”; it also “protect(s) employees from being required to take part in activities that conflict with their personal beliefs” (though their abstention could be perceived as an expression of personal belief, but never mind).

With Friends Like These: America and Its Fake Allies

With Friends Like These: America and Its Fake Allies

Some of America’s friends, purported Western allies, have shown their true colors at last. Regrettably, without shame, they have proven to be nothing but parasites.

While basking in the protection offered by America’s military capability so they can fund their bulging, barely-functioning welfare programs, and taking advantage of America’s powerful economy with preferential tariffs in their favor, when asked for support, these putative allies run for cover.

Amanpour Parrots Regime Hacks About Trump’s Assault On ‘2,500-Year Old Civilization’

Amanpour Parrots Regime Hacks About Trump’s Assault On ‘2,500-Year Old Civilization’

PBS anchor Christiane Amanpour kicked off her Thursday show by suggesting remarks President Trump made in his Wednesday address on Iran have made ordinary Iranians angry at him. However, Amanpour provided no evidence for that, and it is likely she was just parroting various regime hacks she saw on X, which is otherwise banned for ordinary Iranians.

Amanpour began by playing a clip of Trump, “American and Israeli bombs will continue pounding Iran. Here’s President Trump as he sought to reassure Americans that he does, in fact, have a plan.”

Beware These Cuban Headlines: EU ‘Aid,’ Castro Kids, and 2,010 Prisoners

Beware These Cuban Headlines: EU ‘Aid,’ Castro Kids, and 2,010 Prisoners

Donald Trump’s been talking about a Cuban takeover “soon” for a couple of months now. This week, while appearing on Hannity on Fox News, Marco Rubio suggested that we’ll “have more news [on Cuba] fairly soon.”

I think prioritizing Cuba is sort of on hold until we’re finished up in Iran, but the MSM is doing its best to keep it in the headlines in the worst of ways. The goal is, as always, to make Trump, Rubio, and the United States look stupid, while making the regime look stoic and ready to progress, as if after nearly 70 years, it has seen the light. It has not. The leftists in the U.S. have some sort of gross desire to romanticize this island hellhole.

Poll finds 51% of Canadians want aid sent to Cuba even if it angers U.S.

Poll finds 51% of Canadians want aid sent to Cuba even if it angers U.S.

When it comes to Cuba, whose tourism has sunk due to a U.S. oil blockade, just over half of Canadians say to send aid even if the U.S. might not like it.

This according to a new Angus Reid poll that found 51% of Canadians want Canada to provide aid while 31% believe maintaining positive relations with U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is more important.

The entirety of those polled was Justin and and his brother.

Terry Glavin: The muddled and murky world of Michael Ma

Terry Glavin: The muddled and murky world of Michael Ma

You might have thought that the floor-crossing Liberal MP Michael Ma would have been political kryptonite after his March 26 performance at a parliamentary committee looking into the implications of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s January invitation to China to annually export 49,000 electrical vehicles into Canada.

Ma had badgered the expert witness Margaret McCuaig-Johnston, impugned the credibility of the China Strategic Risk Institute where she serves as a senior advisor, demanded to know whether she had personally witnessed acts of forced labour in China and appeared to suggest that Beijing’s persecution of the Uyghur minority in Xinjiang was merely “hearsay.”

Chinese firms market Iran war intelligence ‘exposing’ U.S. forces

Chinese firms market Iran war intelligence ‘exposing’ U.S. forces

As the war in Iran erupted five weeks ago, social media sleuths across Western and Chinese platforms flagged a wave of viral posts detailing equipment at U.S. bases, the movements of American carrier groups and granular breakdowns of how military aircraft were assembling for strikes on Tehran.

The intelligence came from a fast growing new market: Chinese firms — some with links to the People’s Liberation Army — marrying artificial intelligence with open-source data to market information they claim can “expose” the movements of U.S. forces.

One year after the U.S. imposed tariffs on Canada’s auto sector, here’s how industry leaders say it’s going

One year after U.S. President Donald Trump levied tariffs on the Canadian auto industry, leaders in the industry say they are eager to see an arrangement that restores predictability to the Canada-U.S. trade relationship.

The president and CEO of the Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers Association (CVMA) said he was initially optimistic that the tariffs would be temporary and that Canada would arrive at a new trade agreement with the U.S. that would see them removed.

Now, he said, he’s concerned by the fact that there doesn’t seem to be a resolution in sight.

Iran Uses Asymmetric Warfare to Inflict Pain From a Weakened Position

Iran Uses Asymmetric Warfare to Inflict Pain From a Weakened Position

Iran’s downing of two U.S. warplanes is the most striking evidence yet that, despite enormous military losses, Tehran can still significantly raise the cost of continuing the conflict for the U.S. and Israel.

The shootdowns were the most successful demonstration of Iran’s military strategy to inflict tactical defeats on the U.S. and its allies in hopes not of winning militarily, but of surviving and sapping their will to continue the fight.

The F-15E jet fighter and A-10 attack plane were the first U.S. or Israeli aircraft to be shot down in thousands of sorties flown in Iranian airspace. A massive search and rescue effort extricated one crew member but at least one additional crew member was unaccounted for.

Sabrina Maddeaux: Liberals won’t admit that immigration system has been corrupted

The federal government would love Canadians to believe their monumental immigration screwup was a simple one — that they naively opened the floodgates too far, too fast, surging newcomer numbers past sustainable levels. This version of events both limits their political liability and allows for a band-aid solution of temporarily decreasing immigration targets.
