WARMINGTON: Suspended vaccine holdout Toronto cops have first arbitration hearing

For the more than 100 Toronto Police vaccine holdouts, the good news is their grievance has finally made it to the hearing room.

The bad news is hopes for a quick resolution were dashed when the first session ended without an agreement Friday.

“After today’s day-long, in-camera meeting, no final determinations were made,” said a message from the Toronto Police Associations’s board of directors to members.

Khan: Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover shows why Canada must regulate social media now

Voices from racialized communities, anti-racism activists and the political left are saying that restrictions must be maintained on those voices that use the platform to propagate hate, xenophobia and disinformation. Many on the political right, free-speech extremists and far-right voices are rejoicing at the prospect that Twitter under Musk’s ownership will become a space for unrestricted speech, where anything one can say is acceptable.

That is a lie: Musk has stated very clearly that he intended to allow all legal speech.

Police Are Arresting People In Ottawa For Previously Attending Freedom Convoy Protest

The Ottawa Police have admitted on Twitter that one of the main reasons they are able to arrest people attending the Rolling Thunder freedom protest in the city is that nonsense bail conditions were placed on Freedom Convoy attendees back in February.

The Ottawa Police also claim that the Freedom Convoy protest was an “illegal protest” despite a judge having ruled that the protest was a legal form of Canadians exercising their Freedom of Expression rights.

Joe Biden’s Secret Name Revealed in Hunter Emails Is Raising Eyebrows

Hunter Biden’s laptop has revealed a lot, including the depths to which Joe Biden seemed intertwined with his son Hunter’s business, his accounts, and his business partners.

But the laptop has also revealed how they wanted to keep his involvement in the business on the down-low, and Tony Bobulinski has confirmed that. That would suggest that they knew they were doing something wrong and/or doing things they didn’t want people to know about. The emails referred to Joe Biden by various codenames including “Celtic” and “the big guy.”

One of the other things that the email revealed was another alias of Joe Biden’s, even when he contacted his son and others in the emails seen on the laptop. The pseudonym he went by might make one wonder. He used the name “Peter Henderson” — the name of the fictional Soviet KGB spy in the novels of Tom Clancy. The name was connected to his email “67stingray”, which references the Corvette that Biden prizes.

Can we ask why Joe Biden is using the name of a Soviet spy, and what that might portend?

WOKE-OFF: Activists Cry Racism At The FDA For Targeting Black Smokers With Cigarette Ban

The Biden administration has admitted it is targeting black smokers specifically with this ban. In the FDA’s proposal, it states this move will “reduce tobacco-related health disparities and advance health equity,” a euphemism for leveling the health outcomes between racial groups. Last year, acting FDA commissioner Janet Woodcock was more explicit: “[A menthol ban would] address health disparities experienced by communities of color, low-income populations, and LGBTQ+ individuals, all of whom are far more likely to use these tobacco products,” she said in a statement.

Why Does the Left Have Such a Difficult Time With the Concept of ‘Free Speech’?

Washington was on to something. There is no more vital safeguard of our liberties than freedom of speech. Without it, we are, as Washington graphically notes, “like sheep led to the slaughter.”

The Trudeau Government Relied On CBC’s Fake News To Freeze Canadians’ Bank Accounts

Despite the fact that the CBC publicly retracted a news story about the Freedom Convoy that erroneously claimed that support for the protest had largely come from foreigners, the Trudeau government relied on the state broadcaster to justify its use of the Emergencies Act. This week, Attorney General David Lametti confirmed that the government relied on false CBC reports when freezing the bank accounts of Canadians who supported the protest.

What Are The Liberals & NDP So Afraid Of?

Either there’s no big scandal regarding the National Microbiology Lab, or our government institutions failed to a significant degree and put our national security at risk. Whichever it is, Canadians deserve the truth.

Canada’s Health Care System Is Crumbling At The Worst Possible Time

The health care system in B.C. is crumbling. It’s in terrible shape in other parts of the country as well, just as more and more boomers are heading into a retirement in which they are likely to need the services of health care professionals – which there are not enough of at the moment.

Military Panel Recommends Wild Discrimination Against Chaplains Whose Religions Do Not Accept Woke Orthodoxy

A shocking new report from Canada’s National Defence Minister’s Advisory Panel describes religion as a “source of suffering and generational trauma” and directs officials not to allow military chaplains from religions that do not accept the Canadian government’s principles of diversity and inclusion.

The Defence Team “cannot justify” hiring members of religions that it deems “marginalize certain people or categorically refuse them a position of leadership,” according to the report issued April 25 from Canada’s Minister of National Defence Anita Anand.

America has betrayed its young

Never mind meritocracy; all that matters is what categories you fall into by accident of birth

Two articles last weekend made me feel sorry for American young people. We in the anti-woke brigade can be awfully hard on kids. But having been born in the twentieth century turns out to have been a stroke of good fortune.

On Sunday, the New York Times ran a feature about soaring mental illness in American teenagers. Between 2007 and 2018, suicide rates among people aged ten to twenty-four rose by 60 percent. Between 2015 and 2019, prescriptions for antidepressants for teenagers rose 38 percent. Between 2009 and 2019, emergency room visits for self-inflicted injuries among people aged ten to nineteen doubled for both sexes; for girls, they more than doubled.

China’s Ukraine Catastrophe, the Rise of Trans-Atlantis, and a New Age of Power

Act I: Catastrophe

“The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.” – The first two lines of Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War”

The Dream

What did Vladimir Putin tell Xi Jinping when they met in the cold, blustery first days of February in Beijing? In a ceremony afterwards the two leaders signed a joint-statement condemning the geopolitical audacity of the United States and NATO while declaring the China-Russia relationship to have “no limits.” This was also at this moment when, at least according to American intelligence, Putin promised Xi he would refrain from military action against Ukraine until the end of the 2022 Beijing Olympic Games, which were then about to commence. Whether this is true or not it is impossible to say, though Russia’s tanks did roll across the border into Ukraine just four days after the games concluded. But in either case the question remains: on the eve of war, what did Putin say was actually about to go down?

Fighting Pancho Villa’s Ghost

Remembering a time when common criminals gained dominion over Mexico, and the Americans who failed to chase them out.

There are all kinds of Mexican food in the United States. Arizona features Sonoran-style cooking. New Mexico debates red and green chilies. Cal-Mex mastered Baja’s seafood. My favorite, Tex-Mex, contributes chili con carne and more than one helping of beef and cheese. Wherever it may be, and whatever variation of Mexico’s cuisine is on the menu, patrons will encounter a portrait of Pancho Villa on the restaurant’s wall.

REVEALED: Biden’s new disinformation czar shared misleading tweets about COVID, said Trump presidency would ’embolden ISIS’ and praised British spy behind debunked Russian dossier

Freaky DisInfo Chick

Biden’s pick to combat disinformation online has spread her fair share of false information in tweets about masks and former President Donald Trump – and has even expressed her support for the former British spy behind the Russian dossier.

On Wednesday, officials announced that Nina Jankowicz, 33, will head the Department of Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board as executive director.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas did not disclose any powers that would be granted to the dystopian-sounding board while addressing lawmakers on Wednesday.
