UFO Claims Demand Skepticism—And Investigation

Congress is advancing legislation ordering government contractors to hand over any information about “non-earth origin or exotic unidentified anomalous phenomena,” or UAP, better known as UFOs. The bill, recently approved by the Senate’s intelligence committee, follows claims by David Grusch, a whistleblower who analyzed UAP as part of a Pentagon task force, that the government has attempted to reverse-engineer craft of “non-human origin.”

Some regard these sensational developments as fresh evidence that Congress has fallen victim to hysteria. Yet to dismiss them entirely ignores the serious work done by lawmakers to yield conclusive answers to this enduring mystery.

The electric car ‘revolution’ is a disaster before it’s begun

Politicians are forcing electric cars on a public that doesn’t want them

The electric car revolution is stalling, of that there can no longer be any doubt. It has left the big global carmakers floundering, uncertain of how to proceed in a race they reluctantly entered in the first place.

Electrification was initially met with fierce resistance. But once politicians held a gun to the heads of company bosses with a series of cliff-edge deadlines for phasing out the combustion engine, carmakers had little choice but to go all-in.

Jamie Sarkonak: American universities see end to affirmative action. Not so in Canada

As the United States backs away from affirmative action and embraces the notion of true equality, it’s hard not to reflect on the Canadian journey of racial handicapping in the name of equity.

On Thursday, the U.S. Supreme Court released a 6-3 decision ending affirmative action in college admissions. A majority of the court concluded that the practice of boosting a potential student’s admissions score if they happened to be of a particular race violated the 14th amendment of the American constitution that guarantees “equal protection” under the law.

California Reparations Task Force calls for eliminating child support debt for black residents

The California Reparations Task Force is asking the Democrat-controlled state legislature to eliminate interest on past-due child support, as well as any back child support debt for black residents of the state.

In its final report released last week, the group claimed “discriminatory” laws “have torn African American families apart,” and that one effect of that is the “harms” caused by “the disproportionate amount of African Americans who are burdened with child support debt.”

Everything is now officially racist in sunny California.

Conservatives edge ahead of Liberals in voter support, breaking gridlock: poll

The gridlock between Liberal and Conservative supporters appears to have broken, new polling suggests, with the Tories edging slightly ahead.

In an Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News and released Tuesday, 37 per cent of Canadians said they would vote for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party, signalling a four-point jump since February.

Is it a surprise? The Cons won the popular vote in the past two elections which means absolutely nothing. So long as Trudeau and Singh can form a minority by winning where it matters nothing will change.
