How an armed Brink’s guard with persistent money troubles got swept up in the Toronto police corruption case

An armed guard who has publicly declared his loyalty to the head of an outlaw motorcycle club is among those charged in the sweeping anti-corruption investigation that has rocked Toronto police.

Ryan Cribbie, 33, is one of 19 civilians charged in Project South, a months-long probe into corruption and organized crime that led to the arrests of seven Toronto cops and one retired officer. Among the most serious allegations levied by York Regional Police is that Toronto officers leaked confidential information to “criminal associates,” which investigators claim was used to facilitate shootings, extortions and a conspiracy to murder a jail official.

The machines that will predict the criminals of the future

The Ministry of Justice will deploy machine learning to identify at-risk children for early intervention and to help prevent them falling into a life of crime

Artificial intelligence (AI) could be used to predict the criminals of the future under government plans to identify children who need targeted interventions to stop them falling into a life of crime.

A programme launched by the Ministry of Justice last week will aim to develop a system that can alert schools, health staff, police and other professionals to individuals most likely to be drawn into crime.

It will identify children most likely to be drawn to crime by using existing data that is currently siloed between different government departments and authorities.

Oh yea this sounds dandy.

Gun control is popular in Canada. So why is a major buyback program attracting criticism?

The deadly mass shooting at a school in British Columbia came as Canadian authorities face significant obstacles in rolling out a nationwide firearms buyback that is mired in practical and logistical complications.

Canada already has far stronger gun laws than the United States, and mass shootings are extremely rare. The government brought forward major reforms and bans on assault-style weapons after the country suffered its worst-ever shooting attack in 2020, when a man impersonating a police officer killed 22 people in northern Nova Scotia.

Hillary Clinton stuns conference room as she admits that open borders and migration ‘went too far’

Hillary Clinton rocked a conference room in Germany after admitting that migration ‘went too far’ and has had ‘disruptive and destabilizing’ effects on countries with open borders.

The 78-year-old former Secretary of State’s change of heart shocked the Munich Security Conference on Saturday as she spoke on the panel, ‘The West Divide: What Remains of Common Values.’

‘There is a legitimate reason to have a debate about things like migration,’ Clinton began.

She lies even when she tells the truth.

The Vanishing Anglo-Saxon

There is a peculiar rule in modern Anglophone public life: Every people can have a past, except the one that built the country

The Romans can be studied without apology. Vikings are marketed with cinematic enthusiasm. Celts are endlessly romanticised, their mystique carefully preserved. But introduce the Anglo-Saxons, the civilisation-forming population that gave England (and, consequently, much of the world) its language, law, and cultural and political seedbeds, and just watch the institutional mood darken. Cambridge and Nottingham Universities are just the latest to have found the very phrase ’Anglo-Saxon’ sticking in their institutional throats.

Epstein Island is the Logical End Point of Our Corrupted Culture

The belated performative outrage concerning the Epstein files and the UK rape gangs reeks of hypocrisy and moral whiplash as politicians and influencers have been relentlessly encouraging the sexualisation of society since sex was reputedly invented in 1963. Now, we are all expected to condemn with sorrowful faces these ‘outrageous’ sexual perversions when in fact people in power have been cheering them on for years. When Keir Starmer said recently to the Epstein victims: “I am sorry, sorry for what was done to you, sorry that so many people with power failed you,” his words may actually for once be accurate. Whether he realises what he should be apologising for is another story.

The CITIC Files: Epstein Introduced to China’s Military-Intelligence Complex Through a Network Launched by Lord Peter Mandelson

Lord Peter Mandelson had a plan. Use the people’s business as cover to build his personal fortune. But discreetly.

“My schedule in China is a bit complicated,” the Labour Party powerbroker wrote to Desmond Shum on August 30, 2010. “I arrive on Monday 13 Sep with an official UK delegation until Wednesday. I then want to stay on until Fri/Sat unofficially to meet people and network for the future but I am not sure how to do this, where to stay or get myself around because I want to be independent of the Embassy.”

Victory for professor who mocked the woke anti-colonialists

WHEN the University of Washington began requiring academics to issue ‘land acknowledgements’ in a shamelessly politicised attempt to suggest indigenous ownership of the land on which the campus stands, one professor responded by tucking a witheringly satirical version into his course syllabus. You may not have heard of Stuart Reges, but his small act of intellectual resistance led ultimately to a significant First Amendment ruling that strengthens protections for all public-university academics who refuse to turn themselves into ciphers for progressive pieties.
