Canada is pushing back on President-elect Joe Biden’s reported intention to cancel the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, which bridges the U.S. and Canada’s main oil-producing province, Alberta.
In an effort to save the project, Canada is threatening to seek damages over the pipeline, which has been in construction for the past half-decade.
Joe Biden is poised to have one of the breeziest Presidential terms in history. The man has not even been sworn in and the press has been flush with beatific coverage of the man, from his socks to his food preferences and we have been given all assurances his administration will be most successful in everything from economics to global harmony.
The leader of Canada’s most populous province is asking U.S. President-elect Joe Biden to share a million doses of COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer’s Michigan plant.
In many ways, Justin Trudeau is fortunate to lead a federal government.
Unlike provincial and municipal governments, the feds can create money out of thin air (through the Bank of Canada to finance deficits), and this can give the impression that there is an endless supply of money.
Conservative MP Derek Sloan says he will fight efforts by Erin O’Toole to kick him out of caucus.
“If I am guilty of something, they are guilty of something. This is ridiculous,” Sloan said in a Facebook video on Monday.
“I’m not going to go down without a fight.”
As they have done every weekend since late in April of 2020, the protesters of Yahoo Nation gathered in opposition of Ontario’s COVID-19 restrictions, this time demonstrating against the province’s move into a second state of emergency.
Although police have given some of the organizers and speakers a hard time with tickets, things had largely remained peaceful as the crowd regularly showed support to the uniformed officers as they watched over the rallies each weekend.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the Senate must convict President Trump of an impeachment charge in order to bar him using the prospect of a 2024 campaign to “poison the public arena” for the new Democratic White House and Congress.
“After what he has done, the consequences of which we were all witness to, Donald Trump should not be eligible to run for office ever again,” the New York Democrat said Tuesday.
Antifa are planning clashes with pro-Trump supporters at Inauguration Day riots, flyers reveal.
The events are being organised to confront pro-Trump protesters who are headed to capitols across the US.
State governments in Germany have the authority to detain people under the Disease Protection Act, which was passed by the German Bundestag in March and renewed in November, according to legal experts.
An NYU professor has been slammed for claiming in a Washington Post op-ed that black and Hispanic voters supported Trump because of something called ‘multiracial whiteness’ which separates them from their own race.
Cristina Beltran – who describes herself using the gender neutral term ‘Latinx’ – wrote last week that it was a surprise to see Latino and black faces among the MAGA mob that stormed the Capitol, and that it was also ‘unsettling’ that ‘a quarter to a third of Latino voters voted to re-elect Trump’.
She rationalized their preference for him with the idea of ‘multiracial whiteness’ which is the idea that white is more than a race or racial identity.
The Good News? Universities are doing a bang up job illustrating what a colossal waste of time and money they’ve become.
America’s adversaries can’t wait for this massive betrayal.
Not unlike Donald Trump, during the Presidential campaign, Joe Biden turned immigration into a major issue. However, unlike President Trump who promised to secure our nation’s borders against illegal entry and ramp up immigration law enforcement to protect innocent people from criminal aliens and international terrorists, Joe Biden has promised to do the polar opposite within the first 100 days of taking office- but no one is questioning why he would do this or how this would be beneficial to America or Americans.
The demonisation of dissenters has reached hysterical proportions.
We have entered a new era of demonology. The hunt is on for heretics and witches who might be held responsible for our current predicament, for the plague of Covid. As in pre-modern times, sinful speakers and thinkers, those who dare to bristle against the political or scientific consensus, are being demonised and publicly shamed as assistants of the plague, as Covid’s willing helpers. They have ‘blood on their hands’, the lockdown fanatics cry, blissfully unaware of how similar they sound to those who in earlier times of disease would drag eccentrics to the stocks in the warped belief that those eccentrics either brought the plague or at least aided its spread.
For the last week at SteynOnline we have been mourning the death of our dear friend Kathy Shaidle, and, as sometimes happens along the way at such times, a certain song lodged in my brain. As our Saturday movie columnist, Kathy wrote a lot about one very particular star, including a piece she’d filed with a title I hadn’t quite registered before: “Bette Davis Lies.”
And so a song I hadn’t thought of in decades, and which I don’t believe I’ve heard this century, started playing on the rusting Sony Walkman in the back of my head.
CNN has hit peak Trump Derangement Syndrome just 24 hours before the the 45th president leaves office — offering tips on how to “de-programme” his “cult” supporters.
Author and self-styled “cult expert” Steven Hassan gave CNN’s New Day programme advice on how to “deradicalize” Trump supporters, including gems of condescension such as: “Don’t ‘tell’ them; help them make their own discoveries.”
A middle school in Springfield, Missouri, recently held a diversity training program that forced teachers to locate themselves on an “oppression matrix” and watch a video of “George Floyd’s last words.”
According to whistleblower documents and teachers who attended the program at Cherokee Middle School, the training began with a “land acknowledgement,” claiming that “Springfield Public Schools is built on ancestral territory of the Osage, Delaware and Kickapoo Nations and Peoples.” (At the time of publication, Springfield Public Schools had not responded to a request for comment.) The diversity trainers, Jeremy Sullivan and Myki Williamson, asked the teachers to “acknowledge the dark history and violence against Native and Indigenous People” before engaging in the day’s program of “social justice work.”
US president-elect Joe Biden plans to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit, the fourth phase of a major oil transportation system between Canada and the US, by executive order during his first day in office. Canadian politicians are already expressing their concerns about how it could affect the country’s economy.
Katie Couric, a so-called “journalist” who has ridden her “unbiased” claims to the top of the A-list over past decades, finally revealed who she really is during an interview on “Real Time with Bill Maher” last week when she called for those who support President Donald Trump to be deprogrammed.”
Kristen Nagle, who worked in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC), made headlines earlier this month following a trip across the border that went against Canadian government directives to avoid non-essential travel.
“This week, we inaugurate a new Administration and pray for its success in keeping America safe and prosperous.” “I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning.”
“The greatest danger we face is a loss of confidence in ourselves — a loss of confidence in our national greatness.”
“We are — and must always be — a land of hope, of light and of glory to all the world.”
Amid his debacle of an attempt to ruin Derek Sloan, O’Toole has been praised by Justin Trudeau, finally vindicating O’Toole’s effort to win over one of Canada’s most noted voices for Conservatism.
