The Nunavut government says it will not be using police resources on the federal gun buyback program, and solutions proposed by Ottawa do not apply to the territory.
More than 2,500 types of so-called “assault-style” weapons have been illegal in Canada since 2020. The federal government has an amnesty order in place for the guns and is offering to buy them back from businesses and individual owners.
The Department of Homeland Security revealed large percentages of foreign countries whose total national populations illegally entered the U.S., noting the majority of crossings occurred between February 2021 to January 2025.
The countries in which most nationals live in the U.S. are Nicaragua, Cuba, Haiti and Honduras, according to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Former Prince Andrew charged the British public for the cost of massages while jetting around the world on trade missions, insiders now claim, a report states.
The British taxpayer footed the bill for massages for the former Prince, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, now long ostracised from the Royal Family and last week arrested by British police over allegations of misconduct in public office relating to his time as a trade envoy for the British government.
The science-fiction fantasy of human-like robot working next to flesh and blood people is becoming a reality on the shop floor of the Toyota automotive assembly plant in Woodstock.
The automaker is buying three humanoid robots, quaintly called Digit, to carry goods and stack shelves in the plant, the automaker announced.
Worried? Yup.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) traveled to the Munich Security Conference with big ambitions and came home with a reputation problem. The trip was supposed to bolster her foreign policy credentials ahead of a future Senate or presidential run. Instead, it turned into a masterclass in unpreparedness, and now she’s doing damage control in the worst way possible: a tearful late-night Instagram rant.
AOC is having a complete meltdown in social media because she's the laughing stock of planet Earth!
This is what a broken woman looks and sounds like 👇 😂😂

THIS IS NOT NORMAL: Donald Trump just post a video inserting himself in last night’s Olympic victory and depicts him punching and beating Canadian hockey players.
There is no planet where this is normal or presidential. Trump is an embarrassment to the world and he is very ill. pic.twitter.com/i0vxqjqmaR

OTTAWA — The Conservatives plan to put a motion before the House of Commons on Tuesday aimed at reviewing how health benefits are provided to asylum seekers and restricting who has access to those services.
The planned text of the motion, which has been shared with The Canadian Press, says the cost of the Interim Federal Health Program has more than quadrupled since the 2020 fiscal year, growing from $211 million to $896 million in 2024-25.
That data was pulled from a report by the parliamentary budget officer published earlier this month.
They should only be offered MAiD like Canadian citizens, that’ll send them packing back home.
3 men, 1 youth arrested in GTA human trafficking investigation involving female youths
Three men and one youth have been arrested following a two-year investigation into human trafficking across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
In a release on Monday, Peel police said in January 2024, investigators with their Vice and Human Trafficking Unit began looking into allegations that several young female victims, ages 11 to 14 years old, were being trafficked and exploited in the sex-trade throughout the GTA.
For Sapphic Paradise, a collective of queer, Black and brown strippers, Instagram wasn’t just a platform to hype upcoming events. It was how they found and grew a dedicated audience that packed their monthly Monday night shows where cisgendered men aren’t allowed in.
They lost that footing shortly after they posted a promotional event poster for their November 2025 “Winter Wonderland” prom-themed event, which showed a photo of a pair of legs wearing high-heeled shoes and a rose, both in the snow.
Sounds weirdly sharia.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky continues to send out a firm message of defiance.
When we met this weekend in the government headquarters in Kyiv, he said that far from losing, Ukraine would end the war victorious. He was firmly against paying the price for a ceasefire deal demanded by President Vladimir Putin, which is withdrawing from strategic ground that Russia has failed to capture despite sacrificing tens of thousands of soldiers.
Putin, Zelensky told me, has already started World War Three, and the only answer was intense military and economic pressure to force him to step back.
When one of Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative MPs, Jamil Jivani, travelled to Washington to meet with Trump administration officials, he chose to chastise Canadians for having an anti-American “hissy fit” in an interview with MAGA site Breitbart News.
It’s hard to imagine a more harmful piece of public relations for the Conservatives.
And it is a golden opportunity for Mr. Poilievre.
The “Hissy Fit” comment only upsets the Elbow people who somehow can’t see that in the LPC they support the very people who have made Canada “Poorer than Alabama”.
KALIX, Sweden—A dozen highly trained U.S. Army Green Berets lumbered through a northern Swedish pine forest, struggling not to fall on their brand new skis as they dragged sleds over hills and frozen creeks.
Veterans of the global war on terror, the special forces were retraining for Arctic warfare. And the extreme cold was proving as hostile as any human enemy.
Near the Arctic Circle, temperatures constantly hovered around -30 degrees Fahrenheit (-34 Celsius). Days into the training, one team member—who had spent years in the jungles and deserts of the Middle East and Asia—was dismissed from the course with a boil on his finger the size of a cherry after spending the night outside in the cold. A European soldier from another team was hospitalized and risked losing parts of two toes. Instructors suspected he had failed to change out of his sweaty socks.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio offered a surprisingly conciliatory speech at the Munich Security Conference, and European leaders gave addresses that responded to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s powerful Davos speech and the need for a stronger, more independent Europe.
To cut through the messaging and diplomatic fog, the National Post spoke with former CIA deputy director and acting director John McLaughlin — who was in Munich — for his inside take on allied perceptions of America’s global role, U.S.-Canada ties, and intel-sharing risks and opportunities. Today, McLaughlin is a professor of practice at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.
Saint Francis of Assisi’s skeleton is going on full public display from Sunday for the first time, in a move that is expected to draw hundreds of thousands of visitors.
Inside a nitrogen-filled case with the Latin inscription “Corpus Sancti Francisci” (the body of Saint Francis), the remains are being shown in the Italian hillside town’s Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi.
St Francis, who died on 3 October 1226, founded the Franciscan order after renouncing his wealth and devoting his life to the poor.
I am in Puerto Vallarta and sheltering in place. The streets seem quiet tonight and there is nobody on them. Remains to be seen when things will return to normal. https://t.co/hkzjyje0aL
