Canadian public servants are set to attend a course to combat residential school “denialism” despite a recent excavation at an alleged “unmarked graves” site finding no human remains.
On September 29, the Canadian government is offering a session entitled “Addressing Residential School Denialism and Embodying Reconciliation” for all public servants in the country.
President Joe Biden’s son Hunter has been at the center of an extremely lucrative multi-million dollar influence peddling scheme spanning decades – which could take down his father’s political career say Republicans.
But how did Hunter get his hands on a 2.8-carat diamond from the Chinese, $83,000 a month from Ukrainians and $1 million from mysterious Romanians?
By trading in on the Biden family’s influential ‘brand,’ the GOP claims.
QUEBEC CITY – The Conservative Party’s moment has come to sell Canadians on its “common sense” plan, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre told his caucus on Thursday, as they gathered in Quebec City for the federal party’s three-day policy convention where controversial policy pitches risk impacting the party’s broadening appeal.
To start the day, Poilievre rallied his MPs with a speech filled with the anti-Justin Trudeau messaging that would be familiar to anyone who had attended one of his rallies this summer: the prime minister and his nearly eight years in power are to blame for the rising cost of living, housing costs and the “crime, chaos, drugs and disorder” that are “common on our streets.”
California lawmakers have cleared a bill that would explicitly ban caste discrimination in the state, sending it to the governor’s desk for signature.
State senators passed a bill on Tuesday that specifies caste as a subset of ancestry in the state’s civil rights statutes, which would give residents legal recourse against instances of caste discrimination. The measure, an amended version of a bill that originally passed the Senate in May, was approved by a vote of 31-5.

‘Sleeping giant’ drought threatens more disasters after record Canada wildfires
A season of record-breaking wildfires in British Columbia is nearly over, but officials in the Canadian province have warned that a persistent drought in the Canadian province is a “sleeping giant” which could usher in a fresh set of natural disasters, including devastating floods in the coming months.
Bowinn Ma, British Columbia’s emergency management minister said this week the unprecedented drought has the full attention of senior government officials as the region enters the “home stretch” of the province’s unprecedented wildfire season. Hundreds of blazes tore across the province this summer, leaving crews exhausted and broken, and scorching an estimated 2.2m hectares of land.
Over 6,100 people from 76 different countries were caught illegally crossing into the United States along its northeastern border over the last 11 months alone — more than were apprehended there in the last 10 years combined, US border officials announced.
“Swanton Sector Agents are resolute and determined to hold the line,” said Chief Patrol Agent Robert Garcia in a series of social media posts Tuesday.
Garcia’s sector stretches nearly 300 miles across the US-Canadian border in New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire.
Democratic Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson this week blamed racism for criticism of the job he’s done in the first months of his administration.
“There is a different standard that I’m held to. There is,” Johnson said Tuesday, according to the Chicago Tribune. “And that’s not something that I’m mad at, but that’s just the reality. I’m not the first person of color, particularly a Black man, that will be held to a different standard than other administrations.”
The destructive transgender fad shows no sign of abating in California, but as school resumes, resistance is mounting.
Fads aren’t always harmful things. Hula hoops, lava lamps, and mood rings may have set you back a few bucks, but that was the extent of it. Other fads, like the various eating disorders that plagued the country in the 1970s, were recognized as dangerous and treated as mental health problems. Today, though, another fad—becoming transgender—is considered a lifestyle choice.
Pew Research finds that 5.1 percent of adults under 30 now claim to be trans or nonbinary. In reality, though, a staggering 99.4 percent of the population lacks the physical traits that cause someone to become transgender, according to UCLA’s Williams Institute, an LGBTQ advocacy group. The 0.6 percent of the adult population who are truly gender dysphoric deserves our attention and care.
How are you weathering the Hollywood strike? Tough times, right? Except for reality shows and a few independent productions, the whole industry is shut down. Actors can’t even promote completed projects. Yep, there’s quite a void out there.
Liberty Safe produces residential and commercial gun safes, not just under its own name but also under the labels Cabela’s, Remington, and John Deere. For years, people buying the product were concerned about pragmatic things: a safe’s price, ability to hold their weapons, and resistance to theft. What they didn’t realize, though, was that Liberty Safe would hand over access codes the moment the FBI came a-knockin’ at safe owners’ doors. But that is exactly what it will do, and by its own admission, too.
Imagine if more conservatives were willing to take on Hollywood instead of pandering to it?
Over the summer, Barry Diller warned that the double strike by Hollywood actors and writers could “potentially produce an absolute collapse of an entire industry.”
Diller, who once headed Paramount and 20th Century FOX, may know what he’s talking about.
The tide looks to be going out for agrarian populists in the Netherlands as recent polling shows the Dutch Farmers Movement (BBB) collapsing in the polls two months before national elections, as EU-backed Greens look to steady the boat on populist discontent.
The BBB was only founded in 2019 and, energised by the Netherlands’ running battle over the imposition of nitrogen quotas on the country’s agricultural sector, came in first in last March’s regional elections.

Can we trust the media anymore? Nowadays, whenever you see a news report about a particularly violent or perverted ‘woman’, you can safely bet that nine times out of 10, the offender is actually a man.

Marie Antoinette probably never said “Let them eat cake”. But she did provoke popular fury by building a model peasant village at Versailles, where she would retire to escape the pressures and opulence of court life, and even sometimes dress up as a milkmaid for picnics or parties.
In case you hadn’t heard, Canada is in the midst of a housing crisis, and by golly the federal government must do something about it! At least, that’s the prevailing opinion of the liberal chattering classes, who are demanding a national strategy to increase the supply of houses, rental units and Soviet-style co-operative housing.
For the past couple years, the Trudeau Liberals have at least been pretending to address the issue, in the typical “we’ll add a heap of regulations and throw a bunch of money at the problem so it looks like we’re taking it seriously” sort of way.
