The average cost of a litre of gas in Ontario will set a new record on Friday, and at least one industry analyst is warning that “it is going to get a lot more painful for drivers” over the coming weeks.
The Never-Ending Assault on Election Integrity
I will never forget November 3rd, 2020. I will always remember what I was wearing, what I was eating, who I was talking to and most importantly what I was feeling. You see, as someone who spent her entire life being completely apolitical, this was the first election that held any real significance for me. For the first time in my life I was immersed in the world of politics. I remember watching the votes be tallied and thinking how silly and biased the fake news media was behaving because they knew a Trump victory was inevitable. Everything was going great. Until it wasn’t. Personally, I will never forget what it felt like to watch someone rob your country of its future. Now as we approach the 2022 midterms, I am starting to have an eerie sense of DeJa’Vu. Especially when I see how glaring issues evidencing a lack election integrity are not being adequately covered by conservative media.

Canada Seeks To Develop An Electric Vehicle Supply Chain, Shift Toward Greener Cars
Canada is talking to a number of companies interested in setting up production in the electric vehicle (EV) supply chain, the industry minister said, as the government seeks to cut carbon emissions to net zero by 2050 and play a role in the shift toward greener cars.
Canada Can No Longer Afford ‘Virtue-Signaling’ Politics
When a certain way of thinking no longer works, there are two possible responses:
Doubling-down.
Changing course.
This is the choice facing Canada at the present moment, at a time when the worldview of the statist political class has been largely discredited.
Justin Trudeau’s “Right To Abortion” Claim Is Wrong
Abortion is not a right enshrined in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, as it has been in the U.S. Constitution since their top court’s ruling in 1973. In response, Bernard Dickens, professor emeritus of health law at the University of Toronto, stated that PM Trudeau’s comment is “going too far.”

The Post Millennial Acquired By Human Events Media Group To Form ‘New Media Powerhouse’
Human Events Media Group announced today that it has acquired conservative news outlet The Post Millennial. The combination of these two companies, which appeal to unique audience segments, will position the new entity to disrupt the political media landscape and challenge more established conservative publishers.
The White House Correspondents’ Dinner COVID Outbreak Begins
Attendees of Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner have started testing positive for COVID-19, after the comedic headliner Trevor Noah joked that they were attending ‘the nation’s most distinguished superspreader event.’
USC Excludes White Students From $5,000 Scholarship
In 1994, a blacks-only scholarship was ruled unconstitutional, in Podberesky v. Kirwan. That scholarship was challenged by a Hispanic student. The University of South Carolina doesn’t limit its scholarship to blacks, but it does similarly exclude whites, no matter how diverse and varied their backgrounds may be.
Big-city teachers unions say Supreme Court draft overturning Roe v. Wade is racist
Several big-city teachers unions blasted a leaked draft Supreme Court opinion that would overturn the landmark 1973 abortion case Roe v. Wade as racist and oppressive.
In social media statements on Tuesday, the Chicago Teachers Union, the United Teachers Los Angeles union, and New York City’s Unified Federation of Teachers all expressed outrage at Justice Samuel Alito’s leaked draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that was released on Monday by Politico. Some even went as far as to say reversing the abortion decision was racist.
Disney’s Market Freefall
There’s a saying, and I don’t know who coined it, but it goes something like, “Go woke; go broke.” I do know that former president Donald Trump said that “everything woke turns to s**t.”
One company that’s learning this lesson the hard way — even though nobody there will admit it publicly — is Disney. David Ng at Breitbart is reporting that The Walt Disney Company has lost a whopping $63 billion in market capitalization over the past two months.
Normalizing Perversion
The reasons for the Left’s perverse sexualizing of very young children make sense only if you are sexually neurotic. None of it makes sense if you are a rational, healthy, sexually normal person. For example, what is to be gained by first graders learning about drag queens and transsexuality? How is a child’s life improved, how is the culture improved when children whose brains are not physically equipped to process such information get exposed to it? If it is the hope of sexualizers that children will be more accepting of perversity, to what end?
‘MAGA is the most extreme political organization in American history’: Biden warns of Republicans’ ‘ultra MAGA agenda’ and suggests they’ll ban LGBT children from classrooms if Roe v. Wade is overturned
President Joe Biden called the ‘MAGA crowd’ the ‘most extreme political organization in American history’ in a full-throated attack on Republicans and their ‘ultra-MAGA’ agenda in a speech from the White House on Wednesday.
He also warned that the GOP could ban LGBT children from classrooms if Roe v. Wade is overturned and signaled they could even reverse the 1965 Griswold v. Connecticut case that struck down a state law banning the use of contraceptives by married couples.
It was a ramp-up in rhetoric from Biden following the Supreme Court leak that caused a firestorm and protests across the country and a further condemnation of Florida’s so-called ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Bill that bans teachers from discussing sexual orientation and gender identity before third grade.
San Francisco is blocked from banning four ‘drug dealers’ after court rules it would violate constitutional right to travel
A California appeals court ruled that San Francisco could not block four suspected drug dealers from the inner-city Tenderloin district, a 50-square-block neighborhood rife with crime and drug use.
The ruling, which came on Friday, stemmed from San Francisco’s attempted to ban 28 alleged drug dealers in 2020 who frequented the downtown area, which has seen the city’s largest number of overdose deaths.
An enforcement of the ban what shot down in court last May, with the city appealing the decision as officials specifically named alleged drug dealers Christian Noel Padilla-Martel, Victor Zelaya, 27, Jarold Sanchez, 23, and Guadaloupe Aguilar-Benegas, 28, as individuals who needed to be kept out of the district.
Brian Bird: Euthanasia is a runaway train in Canada. It’s time to hit the brakes.
Next year, Canadians suffering solely from mental illness may be eligible for medically assisted death. A parliamentary committee will release a report by June with recommendations on how this and other potential changes to Canada’s laws on euthanasia might be implemented. Rather than suggest how to go about these changes, this committee should recommend that we not go about them at all. Euthanasia should not be further expanded in Canada.
Do we need a capitalist civil war?
The working class suffer when elites agree
We Americans like to think of ourselves as a thoroughly modern people — living proof of what, with enough toil and grit, the rest of the free world can one day hope to be. And yet for all our progressivism and idealism, America’s political culture finds itself unable to escape the past. We may be living in a 21st century democracy, but that “democracy” increasingly resembles something that could have been plucked out of feudal Europe or, perhaps more accurately, feudal Japan.
Jokes are not violence – this is violence
The attack on Dave Chappelle reminds us why we must never equate violence with words.
We don’t know why that man rushed comic legend Dave Chappelle onstage at the Hollywood Bowl last night, allegedly wielding a replica gun with a blade inside. What we do know is that Chappelle’s attacker got his arse handed to him by security, if the images of him being wheeled into an ambulance, bloodied, cuffed and with his arm cocked at a gruesome angle are anything to go by. And we also know that Chappelle handled it all like a pro, returning to the stage shortly after the attack to quip that it was a ‘trans man’ who had tackled him to the floor, a nod to the heat Chappelle has caught in recent years for his jokes about gender ideology.
AP evidence points to 600 dead in Mariupol theater airstrike
LVIV, Ukraine (AP) — She stood in just her bathrobe in the freezing basement of the Mariupol theater, coated in white plaster dust shaken loose by the explosion. Her husband tugged at her to leave and begged her to cover her eyes.
But she couldn’t help it — Oksana Syomina looked. And to this day, she wishes she hadn’t. Bodies were strewn everywhere, including those of children. By the main exit, a little girl lay still on the floor.
Syomina had to step on the dead to escape the building that had served as the Ukrainian city’s main bomb shelter for more than a week. The wounded screamed, as did those trying to find loved ones. Syomina, her husband and about 30 others ran blindly toward the sea and up the shore for almost five miles (eight kilometers) without stopping, the theater in ruins behind them.
GOLDSTEIN: U.S. abortion fight a diversion from Canada’s crumbling health care
How about we leave American decisions on abortion access to Americans and focus on our health-care system, where a lack of both access and timely access to health care is a huge problem, exacerbated by the pandemic and years of federal and provincial government waste, incompetence and neglect?
George Soros, Clinton and Obama staffers and European governments are behind anti-Musk campaign to force big corporations to boycott Twitter
Some of the most high-profile liberal figures have joined together to encourage advertisers to boycott Twitter if Elon Musk brings in his promised policy of unfettered ‘free speech.’
Twenty six NGOs and advocacy groups signed a letter expressing concern about the world’s richest man’s plan.
Musk himself responded to the letter asking who funded them: the answer being an assortment of ‘dark money groups’ like George Soros’s Open Society Foundation; NGOs founded by former Clinton and Obama administration staffers; wealthy Democrat donors and their family foundations; labor unions; and the governments of European nations.
Canada’s electricity grid will need substantial changes to help achieve net zero says really stupid report that states wind, solar & unicorns will provide 75% of needs!
… The institute’s report — called The Big Switch, Powering Canada’s Net Zero Future — relies on multiple studies that show demand will be double or triple what it is today by 2050. As much as 75 per cent of that additional power will need to come from wind and solar, if Canada is to meet its climate goals.
These are not serious people. Not once is nuclear mentioned.
