Defence Minister David McGuinty said he did not know about a strike on an air base in Kuwait where members of the Canadian Armed Forces were stationed until after it was first reported by a media outlet.
“No, I didn’t know about it before La Presse reported on it,” McGuinty said Thursday in a response to a question about whether he knew about the strike before the story was published, in a press conference in Kitchener, Ont.
That inspires confidence.

Anti-Trump voices on the left, and some anti-war voices on the right, are already calling the Iran War a “quagmire”— after less than three weeks of fighting. Whether you opposed or supported the U.S.–Israeli war against Iran when it was launched on Feb. 28, 2026, to contend that it has descended into a quagmire after 18 days of mostly overwhelming U.S. and Israeli military success betrays advanced stages of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Ironically, some of these same voices — intellectuals like William Kristol and Robert Kagan — served as cheerleaders for the Iraq War, an actual quagmire that they supported year after year despite its seemingly endless nature.
IRANIAN NAVAL INFRASTRUCTURE STRUCK IN THE CASPIAN SEA.

Weeks after CBC News identified two Indian nationals deported from Canada for serious criminality, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has identified the pair as proof of expanded efforts to disrupt extortion networks.
According to Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) records obtained by CBC News, Arshdeep Singh and Sukhnaaz Singh Sandhu were known to each other — and to the alleged “prime conspirator” behind a series of extortion-linked shootings at a Surrey, B.C., café.
Both men moved between provinces, wracking up run-ins with police at every stop.
Do you eat steak? You’re killing the planet! So say climate activists.
Silly media agree: Vox warns that beef is the “worst thing we eat when it comes to global warming.”
Let’s talk for a moment about the scale of Canada’s ambition and how it compares to the scale of what we can plausibly achieve.
Last week, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced major plans for Arctic infrastructure. Much of the $35 billion budgeted for them will be used to expand and upgrade existing military facilities; these, in theory, will increase the Canadian Armed Forces’ capacity to respond quickly and in strength to any crisis.
Every day is Al Capone’s vault day with these two.
After Iran’s despotic regime and its proxies have been defeated militarily and politically, the next war has already begun. That war will be fought not only with swords, but with words and speech. It against a virulent ideology masquerading as a theology: Islamism, the belief that Muslims must dominate the world and eliminate, or convert all non-Muslims.
In addition, there are also two on-going side wars. One is against Arab Palestinianism, a movement led by the Muslim Brotherhood and its offspring, Hamas, to kill Jews and destroy Israel. Its war-cry is “Globalize the Intifada;” its theme-song is “Death to Israel” its dream is martyrdom. For those who support it, it’s a raison d’etre. The second is against Hezbollah.
Young Canadians, the country’s future workforce, are suffering most from a prolonged economic slowdown caused largely by the U.S. trade assaults on Canada.
Statistics Canada reported last week that Canada lost 84,000 jobs in February, one of the worst monthly job losses since the pandemic.
Young people aged 15 to 24 and men aged 25 to 54 suffered the worst job loss.
Yea blame it on Trump rather than on our insane mass immigration scam
Canada is letting rural employers hire more temporary foreign workers. Economists say it’s a misstep
Note that the misstep according to the Star’s “experts” is not increasing the immigration of more 3rd World Migrants
An Afghan man has been charged after six people were allegedly attacked with a crowbar inside a hospital waiting room.
Omar Momand, 20, is also accused of damaging a counter at Newton Community Hospital in Newton-le-Willows, Merseyside, on December 30 last year.
It is understood the attack unfolded after the suspect went into the hospital to request an appointment, which was denied.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said a homeowner in Vaughan should have shot the men who invaded his home a few more times. Ford was reacting to the latest home invasion story in the GTA during a news conference on Wednesday morning.
Nearly six years into their multi-million dollar deal with Netflix, the streamer’s attitude toward the Duke and Duchess of Sussex is “We’re done.”
I think Harry and Meghan’s most significant contribution to the Monarchy’s end will be the banality of their lives as grasping “users”.
Heavy social media use has contributed to a stark decline in well-being among young people, with the effects particularly worrying in teenage girls in English-speaking countries — including Canada — and Western Europe, according to the World Happiness Report 2026 published Thursday.
The annual report, published by the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford, also found that Finland is the happiest country in the world for the ninth year in a row, with other Nordic countries such as Iceland, Denmark, Sweden and Norway ranking among the top 10 countries.

Canada is ready to “contribute to appropriate efforts” to resume safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, a significant artery in international shipping undergoing a “de facto closure” amid the war in Iran.
That’s according to a joint statement released Thursday, co-signed by Canada, the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan. The countries demanded that Iran halt its “threats, laying of mines, drone and missile attacks and other attempts to block the strait to commercial shipping.”
Yes, this is another column about antisemitism. If you’re wondering, why are they on about this again, have a peek at the news. If you’re grumbling – enough already! – maybe there’s a different question you should ask yourself.
Antisemitism is infecting daily life – violently and openly. But also more quietly, even silently. Each act, from microaggression to murder, fuses to create an atmosphere of normalcy for this hatred. And for the hated? Fear.
Keep pretending Islam can be reasoned with, that it can be integrated and before you know it Canada will be just like the UK or the Great White Banlieue! Nothing ever gets better with Islam.
Seriously? I mean, WTF? https://t.co/k1jCE1HyPi
