Doug Ford plans to rip out existing bike lanes that are bringing traffic ‘to a standstill’

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says his government doesn’t just plan to block the installation of new bike lanes in some cases but also plans to rip out routes that have already been built when having them in place brings “traffic in our cities to a standstill.”

On Thursday, Ford confirmed he planned not only to make cities jump through new hoops to build bike lanes — but also remove them on key streets if they failed the province’s as-yet-unspecific rules.

A great idea. Gonna love the reaction in TO.

LILLEY: Justin Trudeau wants Canadians kept in the dark on foreign interference

Here is the latest from 35,000 feet above the middle of the USA.

If Justin Trudeau had his way, Canadians would never know about foreign interference in this country, never mind the names of those involved. Trudeau made that abundantly clear in his highly partisan appearance at the Foreign Interference Commission on Wednesday.

Former Olympic Snowboarder Wanted by F.B.I. on Murder and Drug Charges

A Canadian snowboarder who competed at the 2002 Winter Olympics is wanted by the F.B.I. on charges of conspiring to ship hundreds of kilograms of cocaine into Canada and the United States and on suspicion of orchestrating multiple murders, the U.S. attorney’s office for the Central District of California announced in a statement on Thursday.

The snowboarder, Ryan James Wedding, 43, born in Thunder Bay, Ontario, was indicted along with 15 others on charges of running a transnational drug trafficking operation that shipped bulk quantities of cocaine from California to Canada from about January to April 2024, the U.S. attorney’s office said in its statement. Mr. Wedding, a fugitive who was believed to be living in Mexico, was charged with eight felonies including one count of conspiracy to export cocaine and three counts of murder in connection with a drug crime.

Where Do These Mobs Come From? We Have an Answer.

Kamala Harris bused in “supporters” to a rally in what looked like an obvious effort to make her campaign look bigger than it is. Women dressed in “Handmaid’s Tale” garb picketed in front of U.S. Supreme Court Justices’ homes to pressure justices into changing their minds, insurrection-style, after the Dobbs draft decision was leaked. Democrat operatives sent agents provocateurs to Trump rallies to try and start fights while in line and disrupt his speeches in 2016. In 2008, at a Hillary Clinton speech, a couple of guys heckled her with “Iron my shirts!”

Kamala Harris is losing the campaign

Kamala Harris is a money magnet. She has raised more cash – a cool US$1-billion and counting – since becoming the Democratic nominee in July than any previous presidential candidate over a similar time span. She is racking up campaign donations at twice the pace of her Republican rival, Donald Trump, and flooding swing-state airwaves with far more ads.

Since replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket, Ms. Harris has received largely uncritical coverage from most of the mainstream U.S. media, which have also focused relentlessly on Mr. Trump’s lies, gaffes, insults and mental instability.

Trump Rules.

Muslim police officer faces sack over alleged links to female jihadist

Pc Ruby Begum Racist Muslim Sleazebag

A hijab-wearing Muslim police officer who was hailed as a role model for confronting anti-lockdown protesters faces being sacked from Scotland Yard over her alleged links to a female jihadist in Syria.

Pc Ruby Begum, 29, is also accused of posting offensive messages on Twitter where she insulted Jews and mocked the 9/11 terror attacks.

She is alleged to have made the comments before joining the Metropolitan Police in 2016 but chose not to delete them after becoming a special constable.

Muslims appear to have a low opinion of integration.

Why won’t Trudeau release classified names — and why won’t Poilievre get a security clearance?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made waves Wednesday by turning what started as an examination of his government’s response to foreign interference into a pointed criticism of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

“I’m getting a little more partisan than I tried to in this case, but it is so egregious to me that the leader of the Official Opposition, who is certainly trying very hard to become prime minister, is choosing to play partisan games with foreign interference,” Trudeau told the public inquiry into foreign interference on Wednesday.

Clear majority of Canadians now say there’s too much immigration

For the first time in a quarter-century, a long-term tracking poll has found a clear majority of Canadians believe the country has accepted too many immigrants.

According to the results of the survey released on Thursday, 58 per cent Canadians said there’s too much immigration, up from 44 per cent in 2023 and 27 per cent in 2022.

The responses continue a trend since 2022, after years of a pro-immigration consensus.

We did not “accept” anything. The Trudeau government and the Business class dumped them on us so they could benefit from the economic and social chaos that has ensued.

British Pakistanis increasingly reject cousin marriage

When British-Kashmiri Shagufta Rashid migrated to the UK from Pakistan in 1990, she was already a married woman with a stable home life. Her husband was also her cousin, but in her culture, especially at the time, it was considered normal.

The couple had five children and things were going well.

“All of my kids were very intelligent and beautiful,” she told DW. The first sign of trouble, however, came with one of her daughters complaining of poor eyesight.
