John Robson: Cutting $1B From Defence Budget Yet More Proof That Canada Is No Longer a Serious Country

If you needed more proof that Canada is no longer a serious country, look no further than the announcement that the feds are looking to cut $1 billion from our pathetic defence budget. It reveals our government’s frivolously toxic mix of fiscal incompetence, obsession with symbols over substance, and hostility to our country and our culture.

Sabrina Maddeaux: Forget Greenbelt scandal, Doug Ford lost his best cabinet minister

Given the state of Canadian politics, it’s rare to find myself bothered by a politician’s resignation. In fact, it’s usually the opposite — the list of elected officials I think should resign for a variety of screw ups grows ever longer.

However, I was upset at the news of now-former Ontario minister of labour, immigration, training and skills development Monte McNaughton’s departure for a private sector job.

Biden Family Values

President Biden is a family man, in more ways than one.

Joe Biden the Big Guy is, in anthropological terms, the Big Man of the Biden clan, lending to his family a sense of protection and plenty of patronage.

The family, rather than any one individual, is the best prism through which to look at the whole tawdry enterprise. The Biden “brand” was the business, and the Bidens, as such, were beneficiaries.

Unveiling the stealthy intrusion: Iran’s espionage in US policy

This infiltration includes academic and scientific centers, commercial and financial institutions, religious and Islamic organizations, think tanks, and even media outlets associated with the U.S. government.

In the intricate world of global politics and security, the yearning for insights, foresight, and preparedness stands as an imperative pillar. The U.S. Intelligence Community, during the Biden Presidency in 2021, 2022, and 2023, undeniably predicted the looming influence and intelligence threat posed by Iran. The professionals meticulously and continually warned the White House and the esteemed intelligence committees of the House and Senate, reflecting a proactive approach toward national security.

Embalmers Speak Out on Unusual Blood Clots

Several embalmers and a pathologist in North America and the United Kingdom have reported a rise in irregular, hardened blood clots.

“They’re just not normal blood clots. It’s like a tissue, not a clot,” Alabama-based embalmer Richard Hirschman told The Epoch Times. “Sometimes when people look at the pictures, they think I just cut the blood vessels out of the body, but that’s not the case. The clot is growing and forming within the vein.”

Anxiety on eve of Second World War caused spike in ‘crisis suicides’

Neville Chamberlain’s appeasement provided only temporary relief from the agony

When Neville Chamberlain landed at Heston, the crowds so thronged the streets that the 14-mile journey back to London took him 90 minutes. The prime minister had brought them peace for their time, and they were joyous. Or were they simply delirious with relief?

New research covering letters, diaries, mass observation records and more has revealed the extent of national anxiety 85 years ago in the autumn of 1938. There was an epidemic of suicide and other mental health crises over the threat of another war, though they were likely to refer to it with the term “nerves”.

In France, a large minority of people support dramatically limiting air travel

Truths: The Earth’s climate has continuously changed over 4.5 billion years. Carbon is a relatively rare compound in our atmosphere but integral to life on Earth. Fossil fuel has dramatically improved human life in every way imaginable. And he who controls carbon emissions controls everything. This last point is why global leftists relentlessly press the fiction of anthropogenic climate change. As proof that anti-CO2 brainwashing works, 41% of French people polled want to limit humans to only four airplane rides per year.

Sweden: A State on the Brink of Implosion

On September 28th, Mr. Ulf Kristersson, the Prime Minister of Sweden, gave an extraordinary speech to the nation. He opened with references to a recent series of bombings and shootings that have claimed many lives around the country. He exemplified with the execution-style killings of three young teenagers:

My thoughts are also with the three children, 13, 14, and 14 years old, who were found executed in wooded areas outside Stockholm. Their parents have been forced to live through a parent’s absolutely worst nightmare.

Inside fentanyl epidemic in California as deadly opioid abuse by young people hits crisis point

Rizzy Spoer began using drugs aged 12. Growing up in San Francisco’s Bay Area, she enjoyed experimenting with as many illicit substances as she could.

It got to a point, she said, where she was “probably going to die”.

In her experience, her story isn’t “uncommon”. Now aged 34, she has lost more than 30 friends to drugs in recent years.

The Dalai Lama can tell Pope Francis something about migrants

The Vatican is helping the islamization of Europe succeed.You can’t make this up.

The latest scenario from the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies does not bode well for Europe: by 2030, 2.9 to 4.7 million migrants will arrive from Africa and the Middle East (3.4 million in the moderate scenario).

But Pope Francis dismisses the great migrartion upheaval underway as “alarmist propaganda”.

In his closing speech at the Mediterranean Meetings in Marseille, the Pope warned of the risk of a “shipwreck of civilization” on the subject of migrants. For Francis, it is a shipwreck of conscience, that of giving in to the temptation of “indifference” and “closing our hearts” – that is to say, concretely, our borders – to all migrants who flock to the gates of Europe.

The Decline and Fall of Home: Part Two

When one considers the full extent of the Roman cataclysm leading to the inevitable fall — the plethora of corrupt and self-promoting politicians, the exposure of unwanted infants (open-air abortion) and the consequent decline in the reproductive ratio, the deterioration of road systems and infrastructure, the degrading of a once-mighty military, and the evident degeneration of sexual morality (as the fifth-century Christian historian Salvian declaimed, “Be ashamed of your lives, no cities are free of impurities”) — one cannot help but note the affinities and correlations between the Roman Empire and the American Republic.

Ex-justice minister calls Nazi invite result of ‘failure of indifference and inaction’, supports unsealing Deschenes Commission records

A former federal justice minister says the “failure of indifference and inaction” over Canada’s history with Nazis in the country likely contributed to Parliament’s unknowing recognition of a Nazi veteran in the House of Commons last week, and that he wants to see nearly 40-year-old documents on suspected war criminals living in Canada unsealed.

The push to release the documents comes amid ongoing fallout after Parliament’s recognition of 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian veteran who fought for a Nazi unit during the Second World War.

Ken Dryden: I grew up in what felt like the dawn of Canada’s golden age — then shadows began creeping in

In his new book “The Class,” bestselling author Ken Dryden looks at Canada’s coming of age through a unique lens — class 9G at Etobicoke Collegiate Institute (ECI). With few exceptions, this group of students (which included Dryden), stayed together throughout their high school years. Almost 60 years later, Ken Dryden searched them out and found almost all of them, to see how they are, what life has been like, what life feels like, after all these years. In this exclusive excerpt from the book, after experiencing the exciting possibilities of the immediate postwar years, for Dryden, his classmates, and especially their parents, by the mid-1950s, some doubts begin to set in.

The end sentence should be Pierre Trudeau and mass immigration ruined a cool country for everyone.
