Expensive Liberal carbon tax could be Poilievre’s path to prime minister

With all the issues swirling about Ottawa these days, it’s hard to see the forest for the trees. What could crater the Liberals’ approval numbers? What could topple the government? What could be the ballot question?

Clearly, no one has figured that out. The latest Leger poll has the Liberal Party at 32 per cent, up two per cent over last month, while the Conservative party and the NDP sit at 33 per cent and 20 per cent, respectively, both down a point from the previous month. In other words, things are the same as they were in 2021.

U.S. had intelligence of detailed Ukrainian plan to attack Nord Stream pipeline

The CIA learned last June, via a European spy agency, that a six-person team of Ukrainian special operations forces intended to sabotage the Russia-to-Germany natural gas project

Three months before saboteurs bombed the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline, the Biden administration learned from a close ally that the Ukrainian military had planned a covert attack on the undersea network, using a small team of divers who reported directly to the commander in chief of the Ukrainian armed forces.

Details about the plan, which have not been previously reported, were collected by a European intelligence service and shared with the CIA in June 2022. They provide some of the most specific evidence to date linking the government of Ukraine to the eventual attack in the Baltic Sea, which U.S. and Western officials have called a brazen and dangerous act of sabotage on Europe’s energy infrastructure.

This revelation may make the German man on the street take to the streets.

Dangerous eugenics: Princeton scholar Peter Singer slammed for promoting euthanasia — even for sick babies

Princeton University scholar Peter Singer is under fire for promoting euthanasia for adults and even sick newborns as he touts his new book on a tour of the US, Britain, and Australia.

Singer, 76, one of the world’s top living philosophers and an animal rights champion, has stoked fury with his recent vocal support for doctor-assisted killings, including for infants born with terminal conditions.

Critics have slammed Singer’s comments as ‘dangerous eugenics,’ accusing the Australian of undermining the terminally ill and disabled by suggesting they are better off dead.

History shows academics were ardent Nazis.

Bud Light sales plunge by 23.9% as brand risks losing No. 1 status

Bud Light’s steep sales drops are showing signs of bottoming out — but the struggling beer brand is still on track to losing its No. 1 status in the US following its disastrous marketing tie-up with Dylan Mulvaney.

Sales of Bud Light plunged 23.9% for the week ended May 27 — slightly better than the 25.7% drop a week earlier and marking the first time that the sales decline didn’t grow worse versus the previous week, according to data from Bump Williams Consulting and NielsonIQ.

Reading terror inquest: Mohammedan Killer’s deportation dropped before murders

Khairi Saadallah Muslim Terrorist

Efforts to deport a Libyan refugee were dropped shortly before he murdered three men in a terrorist attack in a park, a coroner has heard.

Khairi Saadallah’s deportation was initially stalled because he faced charges, including eating a police station mattress, the hearing was told.

The process was then dropped because of the war in Libya, the court heard.

In June 2020, Saadallah stabbed James Furlong, Joe Ritchie-Bennett and David Wails in Forbury Gardens, Reading.

China’s Space Program: Designed to Defeat the United States

The US-China “Space Race” is but one dimension of the ongoing Cold War between the two superpowers. The national space programs of both countries are comprehensive in scope, running across the entire scientific spectrum. Both America and China are focused on scoring space spectaculars to influence the world as to which superpower will inherit the future. Each rival is seeking to be the first to land a human on Mars.

Far more significant than scoring space spectaculars, however, is the question of which nation will achieve military dominance in the domain of near-earth space. Chinese international media deceitfully stresses the peaceful, cooperative, and scientific nature of its national space program. However, the ambitious nature of China’s space program indicates that Beijing’s primary objective is to dominate near earth space.

S.E.C. Accuses Coinbase of Breaking Market Rules

The Securities and Exchange Commission sued Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency trading platform in the United States, on Tuesday, claiming that the company broke securities law by not registering as a broker.

The nation’s top securities regulators filed the lawsuit a day after it sued Binance, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency trading exchange, for mishandling customer funds and lying to American regulators and investors about its operations.

Coinbase has made billions facilitating the sale of crypto assets, the S.E.C. said in a statement, but deprived investors of significant protections.

Conservative Toronto mayoral candidate Anthony Furey gaining ground, latest poll suggests

The latest public opinion poll in Toronto’s mayoral race has Anthony Furey gaining ground, with the longtime conservative newspaper columnist even edging out several high-profile rivals.

A Forum Research poll released Monday shows Olivia Chow expanding her lead among decided voters, with 38 per cent saying she’s their top choice compared to 13 per cent for her closest rival, ex-police chief Mark Saunders. One point behind Saunders is city councillor Josh Matlow at 12 per cent.

Problem? No one to rally round in an Anybody But Chow movement.

Surge in gonorrhoea and syphilis linked to end of lockdown

Cases of gonorrhoea have soared by 50 per cent in the past year to the highest on record, while those of syphilis are the highest since 1948 as as sexually transmitted infections bounce back following lockdown.

The UK Health Security Agency said 82,592 people were diagnosed with gonorrhoea last year, the highest since records began in 1918, amid a rise in antibiotic-resistant infections.

More than a third of these cases were in people aged 15 to 24, but cases in pensioners have also doubled over the past year.
