Researcher argues health-care serial killer could take advantage of Canada’s assisted dying program

Canada’s assisted dying regime could provide a cover for medical staff with “serially homicidal personalities,” according to a controversial paper critics say provides no evidence patients could be preyed upon by criminal medical murderers.

“Canada’s MAID (medical assistance in dying) system is criticized as the most permissive or least safeguarded in the world, raising the question of whether it could protect patients who fit the clinical profile of adult victims of HSK (health-care serial killers) from a killer working as a MAID provider,” Christopher Lyon, a Canadian social scientist who teaches at the University of York in the United Kingdom, wrote in a newly published paper.

RCMP admit many Canadians don’t trust them

The RCMP is facing a growing “credibility gap” and must work to “enhance public trust” by being more transparent about its use of investigative technologies, according to an internal audit.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the audit highlights concerns over the Mounties’ lack of openness regarding their use of facial recognition technology and spyware, issues that have previously drawn criticism from a Commons committee.

A Lot Was Riding on This Wind Farm. Then Giant Shards Washed Up in Nantucket.

This summer was supposed to be a breakout season for the faltering offshore wind business in the U.S. Instead it may be defined by an ill-timed break.

A large project off the coast of Massachusetts, called Vineyard Wind, remains at a standstill following an accident that dropped a massive turbine blade into the ocean last month and washed chunks of debris onto Nantucket beaches.

The blade broke at the height of summer and at a pivotal moment for the U.S. offshore wind industry, which has struggled with rising costs, political opposition and a wave of canceled and renegotiated contracts. Efforts to launch the sector in the U.S. are considered key to President Biden’s climate aspirations but would be especially vulnerable if former President Donald Trump returns to office.

Concerning America’s Ability to Protect and Defend Its Very Future

While the world’s attention is focused on the Middle East as the next probable flashpoint, it would be wise to look to the skies over the Bering Sea, near the coast of Alaska.

China’s People’s Liberation Army Air Force is now getting a good look at the continental United States. And they are doing it from bombers flying in formation with their allies, the Russians.

Over the last number of years, China has been confronting Japan, the Philippines, and Taiwan with provocative naval and air exercises. Now add the United States to their list of targets. This time, however, they are working in close coordination with the Russians.

Conspiracy Theories

Attention to the actions and stated or inferred motives of others has survival value in a group setting. If it is wildly exaggerated, however, fueled by an unfounded mistrust of others, paranoia is present. To be (severely) paranoid is to be insane. And in the case of insanity, judgment is impaired.

So, who subscribes to the point of view that Third-World immigration to Europe literally represents a covert operation to bring about the end of Western civilization as we know it, including freedom of speech, parliamentarism, and the rule of law? And would a master plan to eradicate Christianity and put Islam in its place be conceivable?

Why is the Right Not Hammering the Left About the Trump Shooting?

It is unsettling to realize that the shocking assassination attempt on Donald Trump less than four weeks ago seems to have already faded into the distant past.

This shooting of a former President and current presidential candidate is an historic incident that should have sparked serious, bipartisan, national self-examination, and a demand for answers not only about the would-be assassin but about the jaw-dropping security lapses that facilitated the shooting. Instead, the mainstream media has managed to shift the focus of the news cycle to the ginning up of enthusiasm for the Democrat candidate, a hopelessly inept and disliked far-Left radical installed as candidate via an internal coup directed against the sitting President.

Jews for Kamala are living in denial

Why should we have to side with antisemites?

How may one today elide the choice between defending the Jewish State’s right to exist, and support for its determined assassins? One group only makes the attempt: American Liberal Jews.

I was recently invited to a presentation by IDF veterans wounded in Gaza after October 7. The organiser, a friend who taught at West Point, brought several of his cadets to hear the stories too grim to make the news, from the soldiers they might soon be fighting alongside. There were other guests; they were older Los Angeles Jews, like me.

The Dark Secrets of the Murdaugh Family Dynasty

Alex Murdaugh’s sins were heartless and vast, cruel and violent. They were often described as shocking, but not by the people of Hampton County, S.C., who lived under the control of the Murdaugh family for a century. To them, Alex’s behavior was all too familiar.

Every crime that disgraced lawyer Alex Murdaugh has been convicted of has some precedent in the past, from the theft of $10 million from his most vulnerable clients over the course of a decade, to the coverup of a deadly boat crash in 2019 and even the murders of his wife and younger son in 2021. Alex had been raised to believe that he could get away with all manner of wrongdoing because his forebears had done so for generations.

The Counter-Riot Has Only Just Begun

The UK establishment is interested not just in clearing the streets of rioters, but clearing the political battlefield of opposition views.

We have witnessed two types of rioting here in the UK since three little girls were murdered in the northern English town of Southport on July 29th by the son of Rwandan immigrants.

There have been physical riots in assorted towns and cities; local outbursts of brick-chucking violent unrest involving clashes with police, and some reprehensible attacks on hostels holding migrants or mosques. These riots pose an immediate problem of public order; they may have abated, at least for now.

And then there is the national counter-riot of political prejudice staged by the Labour government, the mainstream media, and the rest of the liberal establishment, left-handedly hurling brickbats at everybody from Nigel Farage to Elon Musk.

Want to win in Canada? Sorry, that might not be possible

Canada is projected to have the worst growth over the next few decades among 38 advanced economies

If you plan on being a winner, should you stay in Canada?

This is a genuine question for all my fellow Gen-Zers.

And the sad truth is we’re starting to believe the answer is ‘No’… If you want to be a winner — someone who bets big, takes risks and reaps the rewards — then Canada is looking less and less like the place to be.

Who really posted those awkward tweets praising a Pierre Poilievre rally? Here’s what might be going on

If online chatter was to be believed, the northern Ontario town of Kirkland Lake — founded on gold, sustained by hockey, population roughly 8,000 — was abuzz last week.

“Just got back from Pierre Poilievre’s rally,” read one post on X, formerly Twitter. The user, who wrote her bio in Spanish and listed her location as France, continued the emphatic message to her zero followers: “I’m buzzing from the energy! As a northerner, it’s refreshing to see a leader who actually listens to our concerns and prioritizes our needs.”
