Comedian and HBO late-night host Bill Maher said woke leftists share similarities with the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) due to their complete insistence on always judging people by race instead of character.

In the summer of 2019, a baby was born in Nova Scotia with “serious medical complications and significant developmental delays.” Concerns by a medical geneticist led to police becoming involved. When the mother, 23, was discovered sexting her father during a visit to the neonatal intensive care unit, it all made sense.

The ADL is a garbage leftist organization. It was never good for anything but under its current head, Jonathan Greenblatt, it’s become a generic woke group dedicated to intersectionality. I have spent over a decade exposing the ADL for what it is including, last week, for its decision to spend the anniversary of the Crown Heights Pogrom together with Al Sharpton in Washington D.C.
Last year, Musk met with a coalition of leftist groups, Color of Change (formerly founded by Van Jones) , the NAACP and the ADL and a number of others that were organizing boycotts of Twitter over ‘hate speech’.
Daniel Greenfield of Frontpage shines a light on Elon Musk v. The ADL.
The ADL is guilty of a lot of despicable behavior but according to Greenfield is not the prime mover in the Twitter-X Ad boycott.
I do hope that Elon follows through on his threatened ADL document dump. I wish he would force the Canadian operation to come clean as well.
The Journal Nature published a study revealing that of the folks who were early adopters of EVs in California (between 2012 and 2018), 20% of PHEV drivers have returned to fully gas-powered vehicles and 18% of full EV drivers returned to gas-powered–with their subsequent vehicle purchase.
The Prices of Used Electric Cars are Freefalling
Used vehicle prices have been sky-high for years. But in recent months, there’s finally a bit of relief. And what’s more, the values of certain used EVs–such as used Teslas–are in freefall. Does this mean the electric vehicle’s honeymoon is over? Are early EV adopters selling for a reason? Or are we seeing supply and demand finally even out?

When the highly anticipated trial of Tamara Lich and Chris Barber finally gets underway this week, there likely won’t be much arguing about what happened or what roles the two infamous figures played during the 2022 “Freedom Convoy” protests in Ottawa.
That winter, the two led thousands of trucks and other vehicles to the capital. They rallied the protesters, and told them to “hold the line” when police tried to break up the honking crowds. They also raised millions of dollars for the movement.

Burning Man has descended into chaos as fed-up revelers snapped and fought during the mass exodus from the washout festival.
Tempers frayed during the hours-long line of RVs and campers on the way out of the Nevada desert, with cops warning many had turned hostile towards each other.
Pershing County Sheriff Jerry Allen said exhausted partygoers ‘lashed out’ at one another after finally breaking following a weekend of misery in the rain and mud.
Not quite Fyre festival but close.
Let’s start off with a little pop quiz. Please read this headline from CTV News and tell me the year the story was published: “Ontario will not require masks in schools this fall despite uptick in COVID cases.”
I’d like to think that it is from 2021, and that while people were still relatively concerned about the virus, the government determined that it should be up to parents whether or not their kids wore masks in class.
Alas, this is not true. Ontario still mandated masks at that time.
A last-minute accommodation cancellation upset 168 British students’ plans as they were told their housing contracts, set to start in September, had been made null and void to make room for illegal migrants.
According to an exclusive LBC radio report, the property manager, Prestige Student Living, had confirmed that the agreements with the students—who were soon to start their courses at Huddersfield University in Yorkshire—had been “terminated with immediate effect.”
It’s the big bang of Toronto city hall’s financial dreams: a local sales tax that could raise hundreds of millions of dollars annually and go a long way toward tackling a massive fiscal hole.
Municipal sales taxes are common in many foreign cities but not in Canada, and a successful rollout may pave the way for other cash-strapped Canadian municipalities to follow suit. But a sales tax also carries risks. And before the idea could even become a reality in Toronto, the Ontario government would have to give its permission.
Everything in this town will get worse no matter how much money Chairman Chow extorts.
Murumuru spends his weekends toiling on building sites in Japan in the sticky heat of summer to supplement the income from his other job at a bakery. A certified IT specialist, he arrived in Tokyo from Sri Lanka a year ago, hoping to take advantage of job opportunities that have opened up as part of Japan’s efforts to tackle its population crisis and encourage more immigration.
But Murumuru, a nickname given to him by his Japanese colleagues, has found it hard. Despite staff shortages, both he and his wife, a qualified physiotherapist, have found the language barrier an obstacle.
“All of the hospitals ask for N1, as do many IT jobs,” he explains, referring to the highest-level Japanese test for foreigners, requiring the ability to read around 2,000 kanji characters.
TORONTO, Sept 2 (Reuters) – A deal Canada struck this year to stem the flow of asylum seekers entering from the U.S. was, at first glance, a quick success: Within days, the number of people caught at unofficial crossings along the border dwindled to a trickle.
But five months later, the overall number of people filing refugee claims in Canada has risen instead of falling. Many now come by air, while others sneak across the border and hide until they can apply for asylum without fear of being sent back, people working with migrants told Reuters.
The numbers show how hard it is for countries to shut the door on desperate people and the challenge unexpected numbers of asylum seekers can pose: In Toronto, hundreds slept on the streets this summer as they struggled to find beds.
Newly released data shows that nine Mexican cities rank among the 10 deadliest in the globe in 2022, according to World of Statistics.
The report listed the western Mexico municipality of Colima as the murder capital in the world with 181.9 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants.
The city is the second largest in the state of Colima and placed first in the list in 2021 with 196.6 murders per 100,000 inhabitants.
Josh Alexander, a 17-year old Catholic high school student from Ontario, can now force the school board to hear appeals of his suspensions from school, after a judge ruled the young man has standing to bring his own case against St. Joseph’s Catholic High School and the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board.
Over the weekend I spent a good part of one day helping a friend do some work in his garage. At one point we realized we needed a small adapter for his socket set and a few other small items so we made a run to the hardware store.
