The Region of Waterloo has identified a water capacity issue affecting the Mannheim Service Area, which supplies Kitchener, Waterloo, parts of Cambridge, and surrounding townships.

However, a third-party review of the system is now underway to determine the best course of action.
Antifa riots and mayhem at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement headquarters in Portland, Oregon, have been on the wane since the wintry rains began to blanket the city.
Until Friday night, that is, when Portland Police made a rare arrest.
Friday night is when Portland Police arrested one of the costumed weirdos populating the scrum of leftover Antifa and Trantifa activists who collect outside the ICE HQ and attack federal officers to keep them from rolling up bad guys.

The ideal immigrant according to Mark Carney.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has warned that Europe risks destroying the “shared culture” of the West and in turn weaken bonds with the United States.
At a press briefing from the Department of State in Washington DC on Friday, Secretary of State Rubio doubled down on the assertions made in the White House’s National Security Strategy memo, which declared that Europe faces “civilizational erasure” if it continues globalist policies of mass migration and attacks on fundamental liberties such as freedom of speech.
Pierre Poilievre says that 2025 has been a “hell of a year.”
Sitting in the boardroom of Postmedia’s headquarters for a year-end interview, it’s an interesting reflection on how things have changed since last year’s interview.
It should have just been a routine arrest, but within minutes the air of southern Minneapolis was thick with pepper spray, tear gas and snowballs.
The pepper spray and tear gas was being fired by immigration agents, who had been cornered by dozens of protesters. One of them radioed the county sheriff in a panic, claiming they were being attacked.
The snowballs were being flung by the demonstrators, outraged by what one of them described to The Telegraph as the officers’ heavy-handed tactics as they arrested at least two people.
‘The Nazis were right’: What the leaders of Canada’s biggest ‘nationalist’ group really want
The leaders of the country’s biggest white nationalist group believe that “the Nazis were right,” that a violent “race war” for Canada’s future is underway and that non-white people should be deported en masse “at gunpoint,” according to an analysis by the CBC’s visual investigations unit.
Second Sons Canada calls itself a “men’s nationalist club” dedicated to “health and fitness, camaraderie, activism and friendly support for those who share our values.” Official posts on Instagram, Facebook, Telegram and X show men gathering to train or to demonstrate, promoting the slogan “remigration now” and celebrating veterans and Canadian history.
It’s not about a dozen Neo-Nazis. CBC Palestine appears to be trying to stigmatize “Remigration”. Screw them we own it.
Imagine if Jews across Canada were marching into Muslim neighbourhoods blaming them for the thousands of deaths caused by Hamas and other Islamist terrorist groups in Israel and around the world.
Imagine if our excuse was that we had nothing against Muslims, only Muslims who are terrorists.
A manhunt is under way after a shooting at a tavern in South Africa left nine people dead and another 10 injured.
Police said seven men and two women were killed in Bekkersdal, near Johannesburg, after about 12 unidentified gunmen arrived in two vehicles and opened fire at patrons.
The shooting happened at about 01:00 local time on Sunday (23:00 GMT Saturday) and the perpetrators “continued to shoot randomly as [people] fled the scene”, police added.
South Africa has one of the highest murder rates in the world. Sixty-three people were killed every day on average between April and September this year, according to police figures.
The RCMP says it is actively investigating Ryan Wedding’s alleged criminal activities, in the hopes of laying criminal charges in Canada against members of the organization.
In the wake of charges in the U.S. against Canadians allegedly tied to the Wedding organization, two senior Mounties told The Globe and Mail that they are continuing to pursue their own probe.
“The outcome that is wanted, of course, is to lay charges here in Canada, if we can,” said Superintendent Marie-Eve Lavallée of Eastern Region RCMP, which is leading the Canadian investigation out of Montreal. “If we have enough to charge here, we will.”
So Canada is only now investigating???
A nativity scene from Latin America was given to Pope Leo XIV to be displayed throughout the Christmas season at the Vatican, carrying a special message that particularly touched the pope: it represents the victory of life and invites us to pray for all abortions perpetrated throughout the world.
Traditionally, the Vatican receives nativity scenes and Christmas trees as gifts to be displayed in the buildings occupied by the pope and in St. Peter’s Square. The nativity scene decorating the Paul VI Hall in the Pope’s residence this year comes from Costa Rica and is entitled Nacimiento Gaudium.
Isn’t this an odd commentary on our times.
Politicians and pundits are everywhere right now, warning of the risk of Islamophobia in the wake of the Hanukkah massacre in Sydney, Australia, last weekend. There was Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez on X on Monday, decrying that “the normalization and acceptance of Islamophobia in our politics is disgusting.” And rabid pro-Palestinian commentator Mehdi Hasan, also on X, reminding readers that “Islamophobia is always wrong” as he performatively condemned the Bondi Beach killings.
US forces on Saturday stopped a second merchant vessel off the coast of Venezuela in international waters, according to two US officials, the Associated Press reported.
The move comes days after Donald Trump announced a “blockade” of all sanctioned oil tankers coming in to and out of the South American country and follows the seizure by US forces of an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast on 10 December.
The officials were not authorized to discuss publicly the ongoing military operation and spoke on condition of anonymity, the AP said.

Hope they’re not driving!
