Cops likely stole thousands in cash from Toronto man during drug bust, judge finds

The court case for a man accused of drug trafficking has been tossed out after an Ontario judge found it “reasonable” to believe that Toronto police stole approximately $6,000 in cash seized while executing a warrant at the man’s apartment.

The Toronto police officers who searched and seized a quantity of cocaine and money from the accused’s apartment on Weston Road claimed they found a total of $19,390, according to court documents reviewed by CTV News Toronto.

Toronto is really starting to suck.

The Twitter Files hearing was disastrous for the Democrats

Today’s left looks to Silicon Valley as a tool to shut up people they dislike

Ever since the shock of the 2016 election, there has been an explosion of handwringing in Washington about the danger of information silos. This moral panic took on a newly aggressive character in the age of fake news and Covid — and has expanded to target Fox News, social media and even newsletter businesses like Substack as culprits in a world segregated by news sources.

Now Whitey Is Hogging All the Fresh Air

Yes, these people are most certainly beyond parody. An actual headline in Thursday’s Los Angeles Times informs us that “White drivers are polluting the air breathed by L.A.’s people of color.” So now Whitey, whose perfidy simply knows no bounds, is breathing free and easy and leaving the poor people of color gasping for breath. Oh, when will the racism end?

Ex-Cops Warn of Tyre Nichols Repeat as Police Departments Ditch Education, Honesty Standards

For years, Aurora residents have heard the allegations of violence and criminality by some members of the Colorado city’s police force: officers punching, choking, and threatening to shoot unarmed civilians; holding innocent people at gunpoint; stalking and sexually assaulting people.

In 2018, a man died after Aurora officers punched and pummeled him with batons and shocked him more than a dozen times with stun guns. A year later, an on-duty officer with a blood-alcohol level more than five times the legal limit passed out while driving. He wasn’t fired, arrested, or charged with a crime, and was later promoted.

Glimmers of Anti-Woke Sanity in the World of Hockey NHL players strike a note for free speech.

While the forces of “woke” march resolutely across the world of sports, darkening our spirits as they thrust leftist mantras into our daily ration of athletic contests, some glimmers of hope, some slivers of free-speech sunshine, manage to break through the miasmic overcast once in a while.

And it’s no surprise that they’re coming from professional hockey. While the NFL, the NBA, and MLB have all made it their business to shove left-wing causes in our faces in the past few years, the NHL has retained its reputation as the least woke of the major American sports leagues.

Beavers are tormenting Britain

The romanticism of rewilders threatens our environment

The champagne corks must be popping pretty much continually at Beaver Trust HQ. Having been reintroduced to these isles in 2008, there are now about 2,000 Castor fiber out and about in Great Britain, swimming and munching trees from Cornwall to Scotland. Last year, two pairs were even released in London, the first introduction of the animal into a British urban area. Meanwhile, the Government has granted beavers protected species status, classifying them as “native”. All of this has been greeted with positive, if platitudinous, press.

US taxpayer dollars ‘helped cause greatest pandemic our world has seen’

US tax dollars paid for “gain-of-function” research that caused the “greatest pandemic our world has seen”, the former head of America’s national public health agency told Congress.

Dr Robert Redfield was director of the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention at the start of the pandemic and a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force.

He told a Congressional committee that “gain-of-function” research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology had been funded in part by the US government and that the virus “looked engineered”.

Dr Redfield also said his initial analysis that the pandemic resulted from a laboratory leak had been “squashed” early on.

The virologist said he was excluded from a phone call on the origins of the pandemic in February 2020 by Dr Anthony Fauci and others, because they “wanted a single narrative” and he had a “different view”.

Antifa Warriors Assault Police, Set Fires Again

During the first presidential debate in 2020, Joe Biden claimed that the left-wing violent movement known as Antifa was merely “an idea, not an organization.” He was trying to paraphrase a statement by FBI Director Chris Wray who had described Antifa as an ideology or a movement, not an organization, but who also referred to Antifa as a “real thing.”

In other words, FBI Director Wray was taking Antifa seriously as a real movement that was of major concern to law enforcement, while Joe Biden was pooh-poohing Antifa as just “an idea.”

Is it now ‘far right’ to be a feminist?

According to Hope Not Hate, standing up for women’s rights makes you a dangerous extremist.

Say ‘far-right extremism’ and most people will think of fascism. Perhaps Hitler, Nazis and swastikas. Or closer to home, it’s Enoch Powell and his infamous ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech. Or the National Front of the 1970s. Far less likely to spring to mind are feminists defending women’s rights. Or concerned parents who object to the sexualisation of children and to libraries hosting drag queens.

The fight between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre is taking Canadian politics to a dark place

The fight between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre was never going to be pretty, but this week both politicians fired off some words that could define not just their own fates, but the state of future Canadian political debate.

Poilievre, the Conservative leader, has gone where few, if any, opposition leaders have gone before, accusing the prime minister and his government of collaborating with a hostile foreign power — China, in this case.

Leaks to the media of Canadian Security Intelligence Service documents about China’s electoral interference, Poilievre contended, are evidence that the country’s top spies are worried about the loyalty of the leader of government.

From the paper that routinely labels conservatives as racists or racist adjacent etc etc

Sweden’s street gangs are gaining power

Barely a day goes by in Stockholm without a shooting or a bombing. In one part of the city, housing estate residents have been informed about what to do if their building is a bombing target. For all too many Swedes, this is the new normal.

Under Swedish law, children under 15 cannot be sentenced to any criminal punishment and older teenagers are seldom given more than four years in ‘compulsory care’. So mobsters now recruit young people, arm them with thermos-flask bombs or guns and send them out as soldiers in their gang wars.

John Ivison: Liberals are fighting suspiciously hard to prevent Katie Telford testifying on Chinese interference

The motion introduced at the House of Commons’ ethics committee on Friday to call the prime minister’s chief of staff to testify on its investigation into foreign interference means there are now two parliamentary committees seeking an audience with Katie Telford, and, presumably, two committees that are about to be gridlocked by Liberal filibusters.
