Anti-hate bill stalled after Fraser’s office brokered deal without PMO approval: sources

Sean Fraser – almost certainly lying.

The future of the federal government’s anti-hate Bill C-9 is unclear after Justice Minister Sean Fraser’s office brokered a deal with the Bloc Québécois without getting it approved by the Prime Minister’s Office, sources tell CBC News.

Bill C-9 proposes new Criminal Code offences, including one that would make it a crime to intentionally promote hatred against identifiable groups in public using certain hate- or terrorism-related symbols.

It would also make hate-motivated crimes a specific offence and crack down on wilfully intimidating and obstructing people outside places of worship.

Smoke and mirrors. That bill will pass.

Trump’s National Security Strategy is hostile to Canada – and the democratic world

Without much fanfare, the U.S. government has launched what could be a seismic shift in American foreign policy with its new National Security Strategy. And for Canada, the impact of the NSS could be profound.

We already know Donald Trump’s approach to relations with Canada has complicated our economic and security environment. But the NSS tries make coherent a foreign policy that, so far, has appeared to centre on the changing whims of the President – a vision that is inherently hostile to Canada and other allies in alarming ways.

I am beginning to wonder just who exactly feels threatened.

Paris is a city afraid

Paris – homeless among the diversity bollards

The New Year’s Eve concert on the Champs Élysées has been cancelled for security reasons. Paris was supposed to host its usual spectacle. A free open-air concert at the Arc de Triomphe, video projections on the monument and the midnight festivities that once drew close to a million people. Instead, the concert has been scrapped. It will be replaced on national television with a prerecorded concert filmed weeks ago with a handpicked crowd to mimic a celebration Paris no longer believes it can safely host. A capital once famed for its public life now performs it under studio conditions.

It marks the collapse of what used to be one of the simplest pleasures of Parisian life. For decades families and friends would spill out onto the streets on New Year’s Eve. Families, couples carrying a bottle of champagne, tourists wrapped in scarves, all drifting towards the Champs Élysées to count down the final seconds of the year. It was spontaneous and cheerful and open to everyone. That Paris no longer exists.

How Biden Ignored Warnings and Lost Americans’ Faith in Immigration

Migrant Horde El Paso Texas

The Democratic president and his top advisers rejected recommendations that could have eased the border crisis that helped return Donald Trump to the White House.

In the weeks after Joseph R. Biden Jr. was elected president, advisers delivered a warning: His approach to immigration could prove disastrous.

Mr. Biden had pledged to treat unauthorized immigrants more humanely than President Donald J. Trump, who generated widespread backlash by separating migrant children from their parents.

But Mr. Biden was now president-elect, and his positions threatened to drastically increase border crossings, experts advising his transition team warned in a Zoom briefing in the final weeks of 2020, according to people with direct knowledge of that briefing. That jump, they said, could provoke a political crisis.

“Chaos” was the word the advisers had used in a memo during the campaign.

“Chaos” was the plan as it is in Canada.

Donald Trump’s latest anti-immigration policies may drive migrants to Canada. But are they welcome here?

Since late last month, Toronto resident Hazat Wahriz has been approached by Afghan friends and acquaintances in the U.S. desperately asking about refuge in Canada.

With Washington pausing and reviewing the entire asylum system and immigration processing of applicants from certain countries including Afghanistan, he said his compatriots south of the border are fearful of losing their already precarious status and being deported to the embrace of the Taliban.

No nation needs “more Islam”.

President Trump’s ‘Warp Speed’ Defense Industry

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth knows something the rest of us should embrace.

For the last five years, Communist China’s military spending has grown consistently. Published reports suggest annual budget increases of 6.8-7.2%, rising from approximately $209 billion in 2021 to $246 billion in 2025. And that is only what is reported. The real numbers are undoubtedly much higher.

‘I don’t know who I can trust,’ says Quebec YouTuber harassed by Chinese government

We don’t know who to trust either.

Yao Zhang says she doesn’t have any friends, yet every week, thousands of her 175,000 YouTube subscribers tune in to her channel to listen to her live takes on Chinese current affairs.

“China isn’t a democratic country. Everyone suffers in that regime,” Zhang told Radio-Canada during an interview held somewhere between Montreal and Quebec City.

Concerned for her safety, the 39-year-old guards any information that could give away her location.

Woke white women melt down over Pantone’s ‘racist’ color of the year: ‘It’s giving Sydney Sweeney’

Woke white women have been melting down over Pantone revealing its annual Color of the Year is a shade of white — with some raging that the choice is tone-deaf and is proof that the “whitewashing of America has gone too far.”

The company announced last week that its color choice for 2026 was “Cloud Dancer” — a bland off-white shade that Pantone insisted served as a symbol of calm in a hectic society.

More Canadians, including children, detained in U.S. for immigration violations, new data show

A sweeping immigration crackdown in the United States is increasingly ensnaring Canadians who don’t have criminal records – including at least six children – new U.S. government data show.

An estimated 207 Canadians have now been held in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody at some point since January, when President Donald Trump took office. The total number of Canadians held in 2024 was 130.

OMG! Oh wait … they’re in the US illegally but in the Globe’s eye have committed no crime.
