AOC’s Big Comedy Show in Europe

There are extensive studies on how to deal with stupidity. Some argue that it’s best to keep idiots hidden to minimize their destructive capacity, while others maintain that it’s better to expose them so everyone understands what they are. AOC has achieved something unprecedented in the history of universal stupidity: she has proven both sides right.

AOC attended the Munich Security Conference last weekend. It’s still unclear whether she went to contribute any ideas on security matters — that is, on how to stop the bad guys — or simply to make herself an easy target.

Build it here or buy it there? Canada’s defence plan meets Trump’s new arms agenda

The Canadian government’s long-awaited defence industrial strategy formally landed on Tuesday and arrives in the shadow of a push by the Trump administration to further make the United States the arms-maker of choice among allies.

The new strategy has been in the works for more than a year and promises to use defence investment to leverage the Canadian economy and jobs.

It sets out a series of important, high benchmarks for the country to achieve over the next decade, including buying and maintaining most of the military’s equipment domestically.

From caviar to Qatar: the European left that aged badly and ended worse

In the gauche caviar, in the end, it was the caviar that prevailed.

Jack Lang, untouchable for half a century, fell because of Jeffrey Epstein. At parties Lang used to say: “French culture is me”.

And now the party is over. Lang tried to save himself by becoming the de facto ambassador of Qatar, praising the role of the emirate-sponsor of Hamas-in “spreading Islam in Europe” and “defending Palestine.”

A dangerous sex offender receives full gender surgery. Should he be transferred to a women’s prison?

A transgender woman incarcerated as a dangerous offender since 2001 for sex offences against multiple women wants a judge to order Correctional Service of Canada to transfer her from the men’s prison system to a women’s institution following her recent gender surgery.

Correctional officials have opposed requests from Amanda Joy Cooper, 58, to be moved to a women’s prison, citing in court records her risk to reoffend and history of “obsessive attachments” to female staff, concluding she would pose a “very high risk to the safety” of the other inmates.

Tax dollars paid for this perverts twisted fantasy.

Zelenskyy accuses Russia of ‘trying to drag out’ process as Ukraine talks end without breakthrough

The latest round of US-mediated peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Geneva on Wednesday ended without a major breakthrough, as fighting continues in a war that will enter its fifth year next week.

Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said no agreement had been reached on the thorniest questions at the negotiations in Switzerland, accusing Moscow of “trying to drag out” the process.

“We can see that some groundwork has been done, but for now the positions differ, because the negotiations were not easy,” he told reporters after the talks.

Norway’s Svalbard is a Trojan horse for China and Russia

President Donald Trump argues that U.S. security demands the annexation of Greenland from Denmark.

There’s no question that Greenland has outsize strategic importance to the United States. The island sits astride the entrance to the Northwest Passage, an increasingly important waterway as melting ice makes the route navigable for both Russia and China. The U.S. has maintained military bases there since World War II. The U.S. established Thule Air Base, since renamed Pituffik Space Base, in 1951 as a lynchpin in its primary early warning radar base to detect potential Soviet missile launches. The 1951 Defense of Greenland Agreement between the U.S. and Denmark was a model for Cold War cooperation among NATO’s European and North American members.

WARMINGTON: Is Durham Region’s hate reporting program just fancy snitch line?

Durham Region has created its own “hate police” department.

While those on patrol won’t be carrying a badge or a gun, have the power to arrest or charge anyone or have any connection to Durham Regional Police, they seem to be planning to collect, document and store information about residents in the region in their quest to help victims of discrimination or bigotry.

Tour guide company behind nine skiers missing in avalanche breaks silence – as it’s slammed for ‘preventable’ disaster

A tour guide company that organized the trip for a large group of backcountry skiers who went missing after an avalanche near Lake Tahoe has broken its silence.

Fifteen people are believed to have been hit by the terrifying slide on Tuesday morning as snow battered the region. Six were known to have survived, while nine remain unaccounted for.

Mountain rescue launched a huge operation to find them on skis and snowcats, but has been struggling against horrific conditions that saw the entire region cut off.

Poilievre says Conservatives want national unity in face of separation threats

OTTAWA – Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says his party will fight for a united Canada as a movement in Alberta pushes for that province to separate.

Answering a question from a reporter today, Poilievre said the Conservatives are “entirely a federalist caucus” and that he has not had a single member of Parliament on his team express they are in favour of Alberta separatism.

The group Stay Free Alberta is seeking a referendum vote for the province to become its own country, and has until May to get nearly 178,000 signatures.

Parliamentary aide among 11 arrested over killing of French far-right activist

Assistant to hard-left parliamentarian among those held over fatal attack on 23-year-old Quentin Deranque

Eleven suspects, including a parliamentary aide to France’s hard-left party, have been arrested in connection with the killing last week of a far-right activist in an incident that has shocked the country and laid bare its deep political divisions.

Quentin Deranque, 23, died on Saturday after sustaining a severe brain injury. The Lyon prosecutor, Thierry Dran, said he had been “thrown to the ground and beaten by at least six individuals” during an incident last week.

Boosted defence spending ‘nowhere near what we need,’ former top DND official says

OTTAWA — Days after she retired in January, the former top bureaucrat at the Department of National Defence warned that the billions in additional defence spending promised by the Carney government is “nowhere near what we need” and is only serving to “plug in the holes in the wrong way”.

Stefanie Beck, the deputy minister at DND until her retirement on Jan. 23, shared a surprisingly blunt assessment of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s record defence investments during a conference on Feb. 2.
