Sure, being poor in Canada is probably better than being poor in Syria. But is this any basis for a rational refugee policy?

The Head of state-owned China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT) Wang Xiaojun announced the plans during a speech called “The Space Transportation System of Human Mars Exploration”, which took place at the Global Space Exploration Conference (GLEX 2021), à la virtual link, according to the Global Times report. In review of the success of China’s Tianwen-1 probe, the nation’s first interplanetary mission to orbit, land, and see a rover disembark on the Red Planet — in one comprehensive mission — Wang declared his nation’s three-step plan to put humans on Mars.

The Liberals have tabled a bill to crack down on what they say is online “hate speech.” The bill reaffirms that the Trudeau government is “one of the most anti-speech, anti-expression and anti-technology governments we’ve ever seen,” constitutional lawyer Christine Van Geyn says. Van Geyn, litigation director for the Canadian Constitution Foundation, joined the Andrew Lawton Show to break down the bill and explain why it’s so harmful to free speech.
Out of all scandals related to our Liberal government, Canadians should be marking the Wuhan-Winnipeg Science Lab Scandal as the most nefarious. The lack of this outcome speaks to the most profound political circumstance in modern times.
No matter how incriminating the evidence, PM Justin Trudeau is all-but guaranteed to win any future election. As maintained by a media “wall-of-silence,” Mr. Trudeau has graduated from the 23rd prime minister of Canada to the first pseudo-dictator in national history.
No greater cone of silence exists at present than what Cultural Action Party refer to as the “Wuhan-Winnipeg Covid Scandal.”
In simple terms, this thing is a monster. Yet, once fed through an obfuscation tube provided by mainstream media, the general public are not getting the point. If Canada was an authentic democracy, this situation would bring down our ruling government.
It would seem only certain tragedies are exploited.
Is there a hierarchy of victimhood in Canada?
Are all lives seen as inherently valued?
The answers to those questions lead to another question:
Why do our politicians claim that some tragedies are moments for ‘nationwide reflection’ and ‘change,’ while others pass away into the news cycle and disappear?
What is the difference between those events that are exploited by politicians, and those that are dismissed or downplayed?
This is worsened by the fact that the vaccines, in all their emergency-approval glory, haven’t been green-lit for anyone under the age of 12. Many Make-A-Wish kids suffering from diseases like leukemia are significantly younger than this.
The Democrats aren’t “just” afraid of the outcome – but they’re afraid that the audit results will be irrefutable and unimpeachable. They know that their efforts to discredit the audit process in Arizona will not stand up to scrutiny and here’s why.
The Arizona audit is being run impeccably, utilizing security and surveillance procedures with a longstanding track record of effectiveness.
Nancy Pelosi, mainstream media, and pretty much everyone else on the left (as well as a few fools on the right) want you to believe the mostly peaceful Capitol Riots only involved MAGA patriots. They consistently proclaim that there were no Antifa, BLM, or other Neo-Marxist groups infiltrating the protests and prompting the “storming” of the Capitol (at the prompting of Capitol Police, but I digress).
An inconvenient video has leaked revealing at least two radical progressive infiltrators preparing to go engage in the MAGA protests at the Capitol. Another video shows them posing as One America News reporters. So much for the “no infiltrators” narrative.

Vice President Kamala Harris had a disastrous trip to Guatemala. She has received a great deal of criticism from all over the political spectrum. Fox News host Sandra Smith made a revealing comment on the June 2, 2021 episode of The Five. She stated that her contacts inside the White House stated that Harris went into panic mode when President Biden announced that he had put her in charge of dealing with the crisis at the border.
Upon hearing that I said, “No surprise.”
Tyler Cowen devotes his latest Bloomberg column to Conquest’s Second Law of Politics, which states that “Any organisation not explicitly and constitutionally right-wing will sooner or later become left-wing.”
There are certainly many examples of organisations veering off to the Left. Only this week, we’ve had the spectacle of the Royal Academy of Arts cancelling an artist because of her entirely reasonable views about sex and gender.
The twisted psychology of Critical Race Theory racism.

Ijeoma Oluo spends a lot of time complaining about her single white mother who took care of her when her black father returned to Nigeria and never came back.
Like Obama and Kamala, Ijeoma built a marketable identity by identifying with a father who abandoned her. But the author of such racist texts as So You Want to Talk About Race and Mediocre: The Dangerous Legacy of White Male America takes it even further by identifying as Nigerian-American. The Nigerian part is very hypothetical as she was born and raised in America, and her Nigerian father left when she was a year old and broke his promise to return.
There’s nothing quite like reading someone’s tweets musing on life and death, taking siesta, and waking up to news of their suicide.
As if a more hockey-check reminder of the fragility of existence was needed, I got it Wednesday. Following a year of disease and riots, lockdowns during the day and curfews at night, the smashing of one more bright light of the absurd did the trick. Aged 75, John McAfee died Wednesday in Spain as he lived: his life in his own hands.

The far-left, late-night talk shows are suffering some serious ratings losses, which probably has more than a little to do with President Trump leaving office.
As you read through the numbers below, keep this number in mind: 6.3 million. During the 1986-87 television season, with nearly 100 million fewer people in the country, that was the number of viewers Johnny Carson averaged throughout the entire 1986-87 television season.
The number of homicides in six major cities across the country has increased compared to last year, disproportionately affecting black people, according to crime data.
Black people have represented a massive share of murder victims in six major cities through the first six months of 2021 compared to last year, which itself saw a large crime surge, according to data analyzed by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The DCNF analyzed both police department data and homicide reports compiled by local news outlets to determine how black people have been victimized in the wake of the 2020 crime spike.

CEOs are wielding their vast economic power to impose their values on everyone else.
It often appears that CEOs of some of the largest global corporations have made the cause of the woke their own. Their willingness to join the fray was demonstrated in their response to the launching of GB News in the UK. No sooner was this new, independent news network launched than sections of big business joined a boycott against it. A campaign was organised to pressure firms to pull their ads from GB News, and companies like Kopparberg, IKEA, Specsavers, Octopus Energy, Grolsch, Moneysupermarket, Vodafone and others swiftly gave in.

Earlier this week, Toronto Police Services cleared out a homeless encampment that had been a blight on Trinity Bellwoods Park, one of the city’s most popular public spaces. Approximately two dozen camp dwellers were evicted, at least half of whom were resettled into municipal shelters and city-paid hotel rooms. This was a victory for community safety, and hopefully heralds the clearance of other encampments that have similarly undermined public well-being.
A highly anticipated government report on unidentified aerial phenomena in American airspace was released Friday afternoon — and it’s not as illuminating as some may have hoped.
The report failed to offer firm explanations for many of the questions that raised the report’s profile in the first place, such as whether unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, pose a national security threat or whether they offer evidence of extraterrestrial life.
“Today’s rather inconclusive report only marks the beginning of efforts to understand and illuminate what is causing these risks to aviation in many areas around the country and the world,” said Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-VA), Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

The entire investigation is an attempt to prosecute people based on their beliefs. Those who purge their views and admit their wrongthink will be given mercy. Those who don’t will pay dearly.
“My lawyer has given me names of books and movies to help me see what life is like for others in our country. I’ve learned that even though we live in a wonderful country things still need to improve. People of all colors should feel as safe as I do to walk down the street.”
That passage is part book report, part white privilege mea culpa submitted to a federal court this month by Anna Morgan-Lloyd, one of the more than 500 Americans arrested for her involvement in the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Thursday appealed to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) to consider adding Canada to its special watchlist—alongside the likes of Afghanistan, Cuba, and Iraq—in response to arrests of Canadian pastors who held services that allegedly violated COVID-19 restrictions.
The USCIRF’s special watchlist (SWL) is a list of countries where state-sanctioned violations of religious freedoms meet two of the elements of the agency’s “systematic, ongoing, and egregious” test. A secondary list, called the Countries of Particular Concern (CPC), features countries like China and Iran that meet all three criteria and whose governments engage in or tolerate “particularly severe” violations, such as torture.
