Court records reveal Jordan O’Brien-Tobin has been charged in at least 40 other criminal cases in Ontario since at least 2020
A GTA judge previously warned that the man accused of killing 16-year-old Gabriel Magalhaes in a random attack inside Keele station was a threat to the public if he did not get help for his substance abuse and mental health issues.
We used to say that ‘sex sells.’ Now, it seems, transgenderism does — and women are being sidelined once again.
Last month, I wrote about the cringeworthy exchange between Drew Barrymore and the male transgender activist, Dylan Mulvaney. Mulvaney displayed his vision of womanhood — a caricatural costume — and Barrymore fawned over it with performative virtue-signaling. If these are the types of behaviors deemed worthy of imitation in our culture, it’s no wonder we’re in such a mess.
So you want to be mayor of Toronto? Here are the top 10 most pressing issues facing the city
A surprise return to the ballot box for Toronto — thanks to John Tory’s abrupt departure — has reignited debate about the biggest issues facing the city.
The byelection to pick the city’s next mayor officially starts Monday, the first day for candidate registration at city hall, and there is no shortage of mayoral hopefuls eager to offer solutions to the most pressing problems.
From the crushing cost of housing and everyday living to terrifying violence on the TTC and beyond, to the city’s pandemic-ravaged finances, this leaderless metropolis looks and feels tired and ragged. Nobody who hopes to get elected is expected to declare, “Toronto is doing fine, so let’s hit cruise control.”
Seriously if Toronto was in danger of being destroyed by a catastrophic climate event I would probably applaud and I live here.
And renaming Dundas is just the sort of progressive onanism that landed Toronto where it is today a city perversely trying to emulate the Democrat run urban disasters of America.
Other items on the list like the housing shortage are due in part to previous administration’s restricting development but are exasperated by Blackie’s insane mass immigration policy which is the single greatest driving factor behind the shortage. The hope of owning a home is now just a dream for most and the poor face massive rent increases and diminished choice. Let’s not forget that Blackie’s immigration policy further impoverishes the poor by depressing wages.
Affordability? A good start will be to ask Blackie about his climate taxes on everything and strangling Canada’s energy sector.
As for crime, well Mr. Star you’re reaping the whirlwind of your own bleeding heart progressive policies.
As for “homelessness” it’s primarily a mental health/addiction crisis. No cure until the legal confinement of the mentally ill can be restored. Coincidentally that will have a major impact on TTC crime and who knows ridership may increase when the TTC is no longer used as a homeless shelter.
The time has come to right one of the greatest injustices seen in Britain in modern times. The systematic rape, abuse and exploitation of young girls by organised gangs of older men – and the disgraceful failure of the authorities to act despite ample evidence – is a stain on our country.
… First, the victims were – and are – some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Young females, overwhelmingly white girls from disadvantaged or troubled backgrounds, have been repeatedly raped, abused, intimidated, beaten and given addictive substances – and consistently let down by the authorities. Most of them have still not received justice.
Second, the perpetrators are groups of men, almost all British-Pakistani, who hold cultural attitudes completely incompatible with British values. They have been left mostly unchallenged both within their communities and by wider society, despite their activities being an open secret.
Many of them have gone unpunished and remain at large.
The deputy chief of the Vancouver Police Department says he is “appalled” by the “vile and abusive comments” officers have received on Twitter after a Friday rally in the city turned violent.
Deputy Chief Howard Chow took to the platform to respond to online criticism of the department’s policing tactics and for not making arrests at the International Transgender Day of Visibility rally.
Police issued a news release Saturday saying they had begun investigating “violent confrontations” that occurred when people attending the demonstration confronted a group of counter-protesters inside Vancouver’s Grandview Park.
Despite exhortation from India to act, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has failed to take action against a new wave of Khalistani activism in Canada.
Here is why.
Trudeau heads a minority government which is backed by the New Democratic Party (NDP), headed by Jagmeet Singh, an arch-Khalistani separatist.
You know you’ve been in Ottawa too long when you forget what saving money means.
Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland claims she is “exercising fiscal restraint” and “reducing government spending by more than $15 billion.”
Can posing for Playboy be a feminist statement? A French government minister thinks so and has defended her decision to appear — clothed — on the front cover of the notorious magazine.
Marlene Schiappa, a 40-year-old feminist author who was plucked from obscurity by President Emmanuel Macron in 2017, is no stranger to controversy and has repeatedly angered rightwingers.
Article 49.3 of the French Constitution enables a government to push a bill through the National Assembly, France’s lower house of Parliament, without a vote. That’s how Macron got his pension reform bill through triggering weeks of violent riots.
In a January 2023 Federal Court decision, the government of Canada was ordered to request repatriation of four suspected ISIS members currently being held in Syria.
Lawrence Greenspon, who represents three of the detainees, said the decision “covered all the bases and covered them well” and that an appeal would therefore be difficult for the government to pursue. Similarly, socialist activist Matthew Behrens described the decision as an “important ruling with global human rights implications.”
Nonetheless, the federal government is appealing the decision and oral arguments were recently held at the Federal Court of Appeal in Toronto.
A Russian war propagandist who called for the destruction of Ukraine was killed in a bomb attack in St Petersburg.
Video shows the moment pro-Putin cheerleader Vladlen Tatarsky, whose real name is Maxim Fomin, was handed a statuette of himself by an unnamed woman that was believed to have contained the explosive just minutes before he was blown to bits at the political event in the cafe.
Around 100 people were at the event, with at least 25 injured by the blast and four in a critical condition.

B.C. Teachers’ Federation leaders are showing scant interest in responding to the way the proportion of male teachers has declined to one in four.
Last month, delegates to the BCTF convention rejected a motion to “take steps to redress the increase in gender disparity in the teaching profession, such as engaging members through a task force.”
The BCTF is not alone in showing little concern for the fall in male teachers. That’s despite a band of North American advocates maintaining male teachers could provide positive role models for boys, who are doing increasingly poorly in kindergarten to Grade 12. Young men, in addition, now account for less than 40 per cent of those in higher education.
A worthwhile initiative as they say but one doomed to fail.
The only type of male likely to be granted a spot in a teacher’s college today is probably a drag queen.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will not prosecute the parking-garage attendant who shot a suspected thief after getting wounded himself, the DA’s office told The Post on Sunday.
Moussa Diarra, 57, was shot twice by alleged thief Charles Rhodie, 59, early Saturday before turning the tables on the suspect and pumping a bullet into him with the accused criminal’s handgun, authorities said.
Yet cops charged Diarra with attempted murder, assault and gun possession in the case, while Rhodie was slapped with those three raps as well as burglary.
With the city accepting nominations for Toronto’s mayoral race Monday, municipal health officials are pushing for no criminal consequences for possessing any kind of illegal drug as long as it’s for an addict’s own use.
An Angus Reid poll that canvassed the voting intentions of 5,000 Canadians from March 6-13 uncovered a wide gender gap between Conservative and Liberal supporters. Overall, the Liberals trail (29 per cent to 35 per cent). But while a plurality of men say they would vote Conservative if an election were held tomorrow, 44 per cent of women under 35 say they would vote for the NDP and 42 per cent of women over 55 intend to vote Liberal.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has his work cut out for him on that front. But he should understand that it’s got nothing to do with him personally. Numerous studies have concluded that educated women trend ideologically leftward at greater rates than men.
