Indian doctors warn against using cow poop as COVID cure
As COVID-19 ravages India, some have taken to rubbing cow feces and urine on their bodies as a way to fight the virus.
Doctors are warning against the practice, saying there’s no proof it boosts immunity or helps treat COVID.
“There are also health risks involved in smearing or consuming these products – other diseases can spread from the animals to humans,” Dr. JA Jayalal, national president of the Indian Medical Association, told Reuters.
The Liberals are holding a wide lead over the Conservatives, who continue to struggle to make any headway in national support. The Liberals would almost certainly win the most seats if an election were held today and would have about a one-in-two chance of securing a majority government.
It’s déjà vu all over again at the highest levels of Canada’s military: A senior leader of the Canadian Armed Forces is being investigated, causing another officer to step up in an acting capacity for who knows how long, with a domino effect on the other positions at the highest levels. Did the government learn anything from how they handled the vice-admiral Mark Norman affair? I am not so sure. After Norman was suspended from his position, the upper echelons of the armed forces were put into an untenable position. The CAF ended up having seven vice chiefs of the defence staff in about five years, in part because the government did not move forward when it was clear that Norman would be unable to serve even if he was cleared of the charges.
Cancel culture’s latest victim: Snow White. In an article for SFGate, editors Julie Tremaine and Katie Dowd criticized Disneyland’s revamped Snow White ride for including scenes of the movie’s iconic kiss between the prince and a sleeping Snow White.
“A kiss,” the authors claim, “he gives to her without her consent, while she’s asleep, which cannot possibly be true love if only one person knows it’s happening.” Horror of horrors! As if being pursued by a murderous stepmother isn’t enough, the beloved fairy tale character is, in fact, a victim of rape culture!
Speaking to the city’s Public Safety Committee, Montreal police Inspector Migüel Alston and division chief Marie-Claude Fradette presented the police force’s efforts to date to recruit more officers from ethnic backgrounds and racialized communities.
In just 2020 alone over 400 local governments, mostly counties, adopted resolutions declaring themselves to be “Second Amendment sanctuaries” in defiance of future gun control legislation. Many resolutions are symbolic, while others specify that no government resources will be used to enforce additional gun laws.
Not that long ago one of Alberta Premier Jason Kenney’s key advisors and supporters was the celebrated Alberta surgeon Dr. Dennis Modry. However, this relationship came to a crashing halt when Kenney chose ever-stricter lockdown restrictions as his preferred solution to the Covid-19 predicament.
Given the fact that the FBI has dodged a serious investigation into Hunter Biden, one is forced to ask the question, has the FBI become a political arm of the left?
A Superior Court of Justice judge has indefinitely extended the lockout of the Trinity Bible Chapel near Waterloo, Ont. True North’s Andrew Lawton takes aim at the indefinite nature of the extension, and the fact that a country with supposed religious freedom locked the doors of a church at a time when people need their faith most.
Daisy Barringer, a freelance writer and editor, said she hopes Tesla CEO and SpaceX founder Elon Musk dies in a Tesla fire after his appearance on Saturday Night Live (SNL).
Barringer wished for Musk’s demise after the businessman flashed the “O.K.” hand sign while hosting SNL. Barringer claimed that the hand sign is a symbol of white supremacists before locking her Twitter account after receiving blowback online.
Canadian soldiers complained Iraqi troops they were training were war criminals
The Canadian personnel were told by their officers the problem would be dealt with, but they were to continue with their processing of the Iraqi troops for training..
The unsteady future of food manufacturing in Canada
For a country so rich in raw materials, untapped processing potential means untapped value. More importantly, it can make the national food chain more vulnerable.
Dorimain: Defunding Ottawa police would better serve racialized groups
The OPS estimates that only 20 per cent of calls to police involve crime. Many of the requests it responds to are ‘wellness checks’ that should be done by people with proper training.
Direct Evidence of Intentional Dominion Ballot Counting and Tabulation Fraud Submitted to Court in Michigan Following Forensic Audit of Antrim County Ballot Counting Systems
This appears to be a rather big deal. In the Antrim County, Michigan lawsuit, the lawyer for plaintiff William Bailey has just submitted direct evidence of ballot counting manipulation within the electronic ballot counting system.
Attorney Matthew DePerno has submitted the results of a forensic audit showing how votes were manipulated in the county tabulation system.
Woke-ism will swallow our kids unless we restore the West’s great traditions
’I’m terrified of the woke radicals at my kids’ school”: Rarely a week goes by when I don’t hear some variation on this gripe from fellow parents in New York City. Invariably, they lower their voices, lest prying ears catch them objecting to the official ideology.
Immediate Use of Ivermectin Medicine Globally Can End COVID-19 Pandemic: Scientists
A peer-reviewed research has claimed that global ivermectin use can end the COVID-19 pandemic, as the medicine significantly reduces the risk of contracting the deadly respiratory disease when used regularly.
The 2020 Census results are a complete embarrassment to California’s ruling Democrats.
Despite opening the floodgates to millions of illegal aliens, making the state the home to one out of four foreigners who break into the country without authorization, the state has made substandard gains in population over the last decade.
Recent weeks have brought welcome pushback against the spread of critical race theory (CRT) and related dogmas of division in our nation’s schools.
Contrary to what many of CRT’s advocates often claim, the theory is about more than just teaching kids to “think critically” about the role that race has played in American history. It’s the conceptual apparatus of a self-avowedly activist political movement seeking to renovate the American social order from root to branch using state power.
Despite the predictable backlash, an Irish awareness campaign was right
The College of Psychiatrists of Ireland, the professional body for psychiatrists in the Republic of Ireland, recently launched an information campaign across various media platforms. It was part of an effort to raise awareness about the harms of cannabis use, with a particular emphasis upon the harms associated with cannabis use among young people. Predictably, the College faced a backlash from activists who wish to see cannabis legalised, and who believe that the College is involved in fomenting a reefer madness-style moral panic about a drug which they view as potentially therapeutic.
The Colonial Pipeline attack shows there is no such thing as a righteous hacker
On a normal day, the Colonial Pipeline carries up to three million barrels of oil 5,500 miles from the Southern United States to New York, providing 45 percent of the East Coast’s fuel needs. On Friday, the oil stopped flowing. The pipeline was shut down after the operating company was hit by a cyberattack.
Two days later and the pipeline is still sitting idle, and companies are scrambling to try and secure supplies of oil, diesel, jet fuel and gasoline. The cyberattack raises international suspicions. Was it China? Russia? Those countries specialize in such actions. The NSA however has been briefing that the culprit was an unusual cybercrime outfit known as DarkSide.
