“What’s wrong with the niqab?” It’s not the question that goes through my head when I see a woman with her face hidden, except for the eyes. I wonder why she’s wearing it, whether she’s chosen it or been coerced through some form of pressure. Demanding that women, but not men, cover their faces in public is so obviously discriminatory that it makes me — and many other people — uncomfortable.
This was not a good weekend for those in Canada who suffer TDS. They made Sunday’s hockey match with Team USA all about politics and Canadian pride. The trash-talking turned to trash-eating. But I do congratulate Canada on its two silver medals in hockey—female and male. Maybe if we make it a best of the 57 genders tournament, Canada will beat Team USA.
Remember, not all Canadians suffer TDS. Sane Canadians realize it’s just a game they usually win. The last time the USA men’s team won was The Miracle on Ice. In all, Canadian men have 9 men’s team gold medals. The USA has 3.
Afghan knifeman attacks multiple people at Jehovah’s Witness stand in German train station before being overpowered by hero civilians
An Afghan knifeman has attacked multiple people at a Jehovah’s Witness stand in a German train station.
The 35-year-old attacker was then overpowered by heroic civilians at Würzburg Central Station who rushed to the victims’ aid.
Police are treating it as an attempted homicide and have arrested a suspect in connection with the attack who is now in custody.

If you want to glimpse Britain’s potential dark future, look west to Canada.
In 2016, Canada legalised Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) for the terminally ill. MAID was sold as a state-controlled solution to suffering, and came with all the usual reassurances that it was intended only for the dying, the desperate, and those with few other alternatives. Ten years on, it’s a machine for death.
Left-wing activists are planning to stage a protest at the Buchenwald concentration camp on the anniversary of its liberation—accusing the memorial’s managers of not being “anti-Israel” enough.
The demonstration, organised under the banner “Keffiyehs in Buchenwald,” is set to take place on April 11th, the date the camp was freed from Nazi control in 1945.
Mobbings, firings, Orwellian narrative control: we should neither treat humans nor the truth like this in an organized civilization.
Dissidents often thank me for having taken the time to read ideas, most obscure in careful detail, and more importantly, for treating those individuals as human beings. Some of them become great friends. Even if those ideas are ones I may disagree with or even reading thoughts amid upheaval or contention, I read each nation’s great persons, as much as their dissidents, with some level of care. Of course, facts matter too, even if it is uncomfortable, just as much as our humanity and the natural world. An important update for Canada, as a dissidence quickly passes the threshold into patriotism, the moral questions being confronted today will have heavy consequences across the whole of society.

The more excitable and less well-educated elements of the liberal left are forever apt to observe that politics today resemble those of the 1930s, being prone to denounce a development or policy they disdain as being ‘just like Nazi Germany’. To be fair, they have a point. It’s not just the street brawls we’ve seen in Manchester and Lyon over the last week, between hard left and hard right youths, that should arouse such unnerving comparisons. It’s also because we are living in an age of appeasement. And this time it’s the liberal left who are doing the appeasing.

White supremacist rally at city hall a ‘blatant act of hate’
Hamilton Mayor Andrea Horwath is condemning a rally by a white supremacist organization at city hall.
Police were called by city hall security to the protest around 1 p.m. Sunday, said Const. Trevor McKenna.
… While the incident is considered hate-motivated and will be tracked by the police hate crime unit, police said there were no reports of criminal activity.
Photos of the rally show members of the group giving Nazi salutes. The group often protests and shares anti-immigration posts on social media and call for “white men” to “fight back.”
Notice the double standard? Would a BLM or Pallie rally, both genuinely racist and violent groups, receive similar treatment by the “authorities’?
You don’t have to side with the group’s ideology to agree this is really about criminalizing all dissenting views critical of mass immigration. It’s an anti-democratic demonization tactic carried out by our Liberal-Left pols and their fellow travelers in the media since forever. See this TDS driven nonsense in today’s Star for additional proof.
By the way Andrea did you condemn BLM a truly racist and violent movement? If not then why the double standard? As far as I know the group protesting has not committed any acts of violence other than to your extreme-left views supporting Great Replacement level mass immigration.

… Dr Gandhi said he was leaning towards detaining Calocane “given it was the first presentation of psychosis, and a lack of information on risk history”. But he said that the team of professionals also “considered the research evidence that shows overrepresentation of young Black males in detention”.

Even the Canadian born Hindus think it’s acceptable to pollute Canadas pristine lakes and rivers. Look at him explaining how his religion comes before the law and how his Hinduism teaches him to destroy the environment. @ShawnBinda give your head a shake. https://t.co/9b13vGEu2P pic.twitter.com/EwYzSuYoTf

After announcing months ago he’d be exiting politics last fall to focus “entirely” on his family — who live in Victoria — ex-Conservative Edmonton MP Matt Jeneroux flew to the airport just south of his riding on Wednesday to announce his new allegiance to the Liberals.
Jeneroux says that Mark Carney’s World Economic Forum address in Davos, Switzerland, inspired him to switch teams; after hearing it, “it felt disingenuine and quite simply wrong to be sitting on the sidelines anymore.”

Radical Feminism and the problem of selective outrage.
Some years back as closing time crept up about half-a-dozen of us were still hanging out at the local dive. An unyielding feminist bartender ruled the roost. She had a notoriously low tolerance for shots at her “ism” whether cheap or dead accurate. Only one other woman, just as wary of patriarchal domination, was on hand. A lone man unknown to us sat at the end. Brazenly hazarding strange waters, he told this joke: “A couple of cave men were sitting around drinking cactus juice after dinner. One says to the other: “My wife’s back there doing the dishes, I’m thinking of teaching her to talk; how much harm could it do?” Our eyes darted back and forth. Mr. T would have pitied the fool who laughed right away. When the victims of male oppression busted loose first, yuks aloud were granted the full nod.
Even if Prime Minister Mark Carney secures a slim majority through more floor-crossings and upcoming byelection wins, the governing Liberals could still call an early election this year in an effort to obtain a stronger mandate to deal with challenges such as the ongoing trade war with the United States, say pollsters.
“The longer they wait for an election, the less control that they might have over what the election’s about,” said Nik Nanos, chief data scientist for Nanos Research, in an interview with The Hill Times. “The reality is, if there’s an election this year, it’ll be about free trade because we have the July 1 date where the negotiations [for the renewal of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement] are supposed to start.”
The Palestinian National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), established last month in accordance with US President Donald J. Trump’s plan to end the Israel-Hamas war, is about to assume its responsibilities in the Gaza Strip.
The NCAG’s main mission is to manage the day-to-day operations of the civil service and administration in the Gaza Strip in the aftermath of the war, which erupted after the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led invasion of Israel.
