Swedish 13-Year-Old’s Death Linked to Gang Violence

Gang conflict in Sweden has claimed its youngest victim so far. A 13-year-old boy was found dead in a forest in the Swedish municipality of Haninge on Monday, September 11th. His death is said to be linked to Sweden’s ongoing gang conflicts which have exploded in scope as gang members and their families are now being targeted for assassination.

The body of the young teen was discovered in a wooded area near a railway track after he had been reported missing, according to a report from the newspaper Expressen, which also claims he had ties to criminal gang networks.

A grim report about climate change in Ontario was kept quiet for 8 months

Southern Ontario to see 60 days of temperatures over 30 degrees by 2080s: report

A new report commissioned by Premier Doug Ford’s government warns that climate change poses high risks to Ontario, with impacts on everything from food production to infrastructure to businesses.

The report – called the Provincial Climate Change Impact Assessment – projects a soaring number of days with extreme heat across Ontario, as well as increases in flooding and more frequent wildfires.

Presented to the government in January but only posted publicly in late August, the government did not issue a news release about the report. It follows a summer where Ontarians faced at times extreme heat, heavy rainstorms and unprecedented wildfire smoke.


Boy that’s some entrail reader they must have. Imagine being able to predict the temperature in the 2080’s.

These are the same guys who think EV’s are a smart move.

Jamie Sarkonak: Petty attacks show that Trudeau Liberals are playing defence

Animals are often at their most aggressive when they’re injured. It’s a survival mechanism: if you’re vulnerable and can’t do much about it, it’s safest to feign strength.

The same pattern can now be observed in Justin Trudeau’s Liberals, who, after months of floundering in the polls, are resorting to playing defence in the wake of a successful policy convention by their opponents. You know what doesn’t scream confidence? Sending high-profile MPs to scrum outside the Conservative Party of Canada’s convention.

The ugly truth about the Peckham shop scuffle

Rye Lane in south London’s Peckham is a lively place day and night, but yesterday evening the atmosphere was distinctly ugly. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside a store to protest about a shopkeeper’s treatment of a customer, who was accused of theft. A viral video, filmed inside Peckham Hair and Cosmetics on Monday, shows why they are angry: a black woman is seen being manhandled by an Asian employee.


The incident …

The “Outrage” from the usual suspects …

In a few months, New York will celebrate the anniversary of its great experiment with drugs.

Biden impeachment inquiry: What we know about the case

Senior Republican Kevin McCarthy has announced a formal impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden claiming they have unearthed a “culture of corruption” surrounding the president.

The inquiry will focus on accusations of improper business dealings on the part of the president’s son, Hunter Biden, and on whether the president benefited from his son’s business dealings.

Months of Republican investigations, however, have yet to unearth any concrete evidence of misconduct by Mr Biden, and the allegations have been widely panned by Democrats.

How the Biden Administration Is Trying to Bribe the Palestinians

Joe Biden – He ain’t in charge of anything except Window Licking

Palestinian leaders owe an apology to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Bahrain, the two Arab countries that signed peace treaties with Israel three years ago. Then, the Palestinian Authority (PA) leadership strongly condemned the UAE and Bahrain and accused them of “betraying” the Palestinian people. The Palestinians even recalled their ambassadors to the two countries and held a series of demonstrations to protest the peace accords.

Now, however, Palestinian leaders seem to have a different view on a possible normalization agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Long hair, signing bonuses and ‘try before you buy’: How Canada’s military is responding to a staffing crisis

Anton Parker followed in his grandfather’s footsteps with a career in the Royal Canadian Navy.

With the longest hair of his life, complemented with a handlebar mustache and mutton chop sideburns, his grandfather might not even recognize him as a military sailor.

“The military should strive for discipline and uniformity,” Parker said while on board HMCS Vancouver, a frigate deployed in the Indo-Pacific region. “But there’s a need in the modern world for people to express individuality. The navy is trying to strike that balance.”

No new money for asylum seekers in Toronto after Chow meets with federal Immigration Minister

… “Toronto has time and time again begged for some crumbs,” Chow said. “I met with the minister, I pled my case about refugees and they’re thinking about it.”

Miller pointed out Tuesday the absence of the Ford government at the meeting, adding that the province has a role to play as well.

“They’re sitting on billions of dollars, that is just a fact, and they can certainly deploy that to the city of Toronto and the surrounding areas,” the minister said
