Is Canada Being Systemically Seduced By Communism?

To believe that Canada had the greatest of potentials is an under-statement of giant proportions. Considering our national attributes, an abundance of qualities that make for a leading nation of the world are discovered.

A high standard of living, democratic governance, adherence to rule of law, a healthy environment. For well over a century our nation stood as a model of quality living.

Canada developed a stellar public education system, as well as what is a “jewel” in our crown–a universal health care system. Of course, we are not perfect — as a current army of Woke detractors perpetually point out. Still, in general, our country exemplified all the qualities that created potential to become one of the great nations of the world.

TDSB puts staff on leave for violating COVID-19 vaccine mandate

Should social justice be part of math education in California schools?

If everything had gone according to plan, California would have approved new guidelines this month for math education in public schools.

But ever since a draft was opened for public comment in February, the recommendations have set off a fierce debate over not only how to teach math, but also how to solve a problem more intractable than Fermat’s last theorem: closing the racial and socioeconomic disparities in achievement that persist at every level of math education.

Border officials secretly sent 70 planes of migrants to Florida: DeSantis office

The US has sent over 70 flights of migrants from the Mexican border to Jacksonville, Florida since the summer — but the Biden administration has not disclosed any information about the clandestine transports, Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office claimed.

Keep gender-identity ideology out of schools

Earlier this week, Castleview Primary School in Edinburgh held a ‘Wear a skirt to school day’ in which all pupils and staff were ‘encouraged’ to take part.

This was intended to raise awareness of a social-media campaign, #ClothesHaveNoGender, which started a year ago after teenager Mikel Gomez was excluded from a school in Spain for wearing a skirt. Gomez claimed his actions were in support of diversity and feminism. In protest at Gomez’s exclusion and subsequent referral to a child psychologist, Spanish maths teacher Jose Pinas began to wear a skirt to school and other Spanish teachers soon joined him. However, the campaign has not gained much attention outside Spain. Until now.

What The New Right Must Do Next Time It Earns Power

It is a sin what America’s globalist elite has done to low-income Americans for the last three generations. National conservatism is about revitalizing families and communities.

As a former congressional staffer who has seen what happens to new movements when they come to Washington with little more than energy and talking points, I think it’s important for national conservatives to think carefully and concretely about policy. But more important than policy, especially in this moment, is understanding where policy comes from.

Conservatism is not a set of legislative goals like lowering taxes, school choice, or even border security. It’s a set of principles or goods – what Russell Kirk called “the permanent things,” like family, opportunity, order, faith, and freedom.

Yazidis still displaced in their own country

“… According to the US-based NGO Yazda, some 12,000 people were kidnapped or killed in the first week of what the UN has characterized as the Yazidi genocide in August 2014.

Thousands were forced to flee, and many died as a result. IS fighters killed older people, along with those who were too weak to flee and those who refused to convert to Islam. They kidnapped and indoctrinated children. Boys were trained to become IS fighters, and women and girls were sold into sexual slavery. Thousands of Yazidis are still missing. Many mass graves have been found, but not all of them have been exhumed.”

Something to keep in mind the next time an ISIS supporting Muslim with a Canadian passport demands Canada let them back into the country.

The ANC destroyed South Africa

Corrupt politicians care little for the fracturing nation

A hinge moment happened this week in South Africa. The country finally transitioned from rainbow utopianism to reality.

The turning point was the municipal elections in which the 110-year-old ruling African National Congress failed to gain a majority of the vote. The party is, despite its manifest failings, still custodian of the liberator’s mantle among many black South Africans — a recent survey showed that although 60% of ANC voters associated their party with corruption, they would nonetheless vote for it; such is the brand loyalty — but the party’s once hegemonic power is in retreat. The decline over the years is neatly in tandem with the nation’s trajectory towards a failed state. At its peak in 2004, the ANC pulled nearly 70% of the national vote. This week, it could barely pull past 46%.

Ghislaine Maxwell plays false memory card: Wants to call call psychologist who testified at Harvey Weinstein trial that victims’ memories of sexual abuse are unreliable

Ghislaine Maxwell has allegedly proposed calling on a psychologist who has testified at big-name sexual assault cases, including the likes of Harvey Weinstein.

Maxwell, 59, who is Jeffrey Epstein’s ex-girlfriend, has allegedly proposed calling in psychologist Elizabeth Loftus, 77, as a witness at her upcoming trial.

Loftus – a psychology professor and writer who charges $500 an hour for her work, according to the Los Angeles Times – has testified at more than 300 trials, including Weinstein, serial killer Ted Bundy and acquitted murderer OJ Simpson.

Yea that worked real well for Harvey.

Censorship is class war by other means

When Penguin Books was prosecuted for publishing its uncensored edition of DH Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover in 1960, the prosecution lawyer, Mervyn Griffith-Jones, posed a rhetorical question: ‘Is it a book that you would even wish your wife or your servants to read?’

Griffith-Jones’s appeal to gentlemen as the guardians of moral probity was widely seen as an indication of just how out of touch and paternalistic the censors had become. The press seized on his remarks and lampooned the prosecution, which eventually lost the case. Penguin sold two million copies of Lady Chatterley’s Lover in the six weeks before Christmas 1960.

The World No Longer Believes in American Democracy, and Neither do We

If the end of the world came, but nobody told you about it, would you care? Here’s a stunning piece of information that appeared in exactly no American news media, right, left or center. I read about it in Global Times, the Chinese government’s English-language newspaper.

The Pew Research Institute, a respected non-partisan opinion research organization, polled the world’s major countries about American democracy. Only 17% said the U.S. “is a good example for other countries to follow,” while 57% said it used to be. Twenty-three percent said it never was.

Durham’s latest indictment: More lines drawn to Clinton’s campaign

“To my good friend … A Great Democrat.” Those words written to a Russian figure in Moscow, inside a copy of a Hillary Clinton autobiography, may be the defining line of special counsel John Durham’s investigation. The message reportedly was written by Charles Dolan, a close Clinton adviser and campaign regular whom news reports identify as the mysterious “PR-Executive 1” in the latest Durham indictment, this time of Igor Danchenko.
