Most Canadians want Canada to stand up to China when issues seen as our national values — the rule of law, human rights, and democracy — are on the line, a new opinion survey suggests.
The bullish feeling towards China was expressed by 83 per cent of respondents in a public opinion poll on Canadian views on Asia conducted by Ekos Research Associates for the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada, a Vancouver-based not-for-profit organization.
Our China class will not give up Xi’s cash so easily.
Is Canada still a friend of Israel?
The answer you get depends on who you ask and where they are coming from, but what cannot be denied is that there is a change in Canada’s stance towards Israel since the Trudeau Liberals took power.
There are more Islamists to court.
Toronto Police have “a person of interest” in the Barry and Honey Sherman murder investigation, the Star has learned through a court proceeding to unseal search warrants in the almost three-year-old case.
Police say they will not publicly identify the individual, both because that could hurt their investigation and — if they are wrong — it would prejudice the interests of an innocent person.
“It could compromise the investigation if the perpetrator knew they were identified. It could precipitate flight, they could take steps to get rid of evidence, frustrate our investigation,” said homicide Det. Const. Dennis Yim, the only full-time investigator on the Sherman case. Yim was testifying as part of an ongoing process where the Toronto Star is seeking to unseal search warrant material that details aspects of the case. Some documents were released last week; more than 1,000 pages remain under seal.
During a Monday appearance on MSNBC, the Democrat lawmaker from California called Trump’s actions over the last four years “simply unconscionable” and “criminal in some cases.”
She said Trump has “placed this country in danger” and has “done everything possible to undermine our democracy. I don’t think that can be overlooked.”
Privy Council Clerk Ian Shugart told the finance committee he’s confident document redactions were made on a non-partisan, professional basis by public servants.
Facebook made changes to its algorithm after the election to prioritize certain news outlets the company deems more authoritative.
According to a New York Times report, Facebook made the changes in an effort to combat President Trump’s and right-wing media outlets’ claims about election fraud, which the company has labeled “false or misleading.”
The company will now emphasize the importance of what Facebook calls its “news ecosystem quality” score, or “N.E.Q.” N.E.Q. is an internal tool the company uses to assign a ranking to news publishers based on Facebook’s definition of quality journalism.

Police are expected to have a presence this morning outside an Etobicoke barbecue restaurant that was ordered to close indefinitely after openly flouting public health restrictions prohibiting on-site dining.

Ontario AG slams Dr. Williams’ leadership during COVID-19 pandemic
Ontario’s chief medical officer of health and his associates “did not lead” the province’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic in its early days and repeatedly ordered measures only when it was too late, the province’s auditor general wrote in a scathing 230-page report.
Bonnie Lysyk said Dr. David Williams and his team did not “fully exercise his powers” under provincial to marshal resources and enact measures to protect the public during the early months of the pandemic, nor did he embrace the “precautionary principle,” where any precaution thought necessary should be enacted as fast as possible, even when the science of the matter is not certain.
You’ve probably heard a lot of stories in the news recently about Toronto-based Dominion Voting Systems and something called “The Great Reset.”
What do these two stories have to do with one another?
Well, as I reported, Dominion Voting shares an office — specifically, an office floor — with the George Soros linked Tides Foundation. But it’s more than just that, the whole office building is a hive for leftist organizations. It also happens to be home to the organization started by Catherine McKenna before she entered politics; even Justin Trudeau’s Parliamentary Secretary Adam Vaughan has his office there.
But this story is more than a few companies just sharing a building. Dominion Voting’s founder and chief investor, John Poulos, is a donor to the Liberal Party of Canada.
They are making overtures over there on the Left. We are hearing a lot about healing and unity and coming together and all kinds of other stuff that we’re supposed to expect as we move into the Hallmark Christmas movies time of the year.
I have one burning question: have these morons met themselves?
An employee will have the right to wear a poppy while on the job during Remembrance Week under legislative amendments to be introduced this week, the Toronto Sun has learned.
The move planned for Wednesday follows a decision by Whole Foods to block their staff from pinning the familiar red symbol of remembrance on their work uniforms in a blanket policy against political messaging.
A Toronto couple and their two adult sons, who all worked as Ontario government computer specialists, are alleged to have been involved in the theft of more than $11 million in COVID-19 relief funds, the Star has learned.
According to documents filed with the Ontario Superior Court, “some or all of” Sanjay Madan, Shalini Madan, their sons Chinmaya Madan and Ujjawal Madan, and their associate Vidhan Singh, allegedly perpetrated “a massive fraud” by funneling millions of dollars in pandemic payments to a slew of bank accounts.

Monday on Fox News Channel’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Laura Ingraham expressed her pessimism about the prospects of the 2020 presidential election going in Donald Trump’s favor.
Ingraham also disputed any notion that saying it was likely Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would be sworn in was a departure from conservatism.
Canada will not be first in line for COVID-19 vaccines, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said during his morning briefing in front of Rideau Cottage on Tuesday (Nov. 24).
“We recognize the disadvantage Canada has of not having a domestic pharmaceutical industry capable of making the vaccines,” Trudeau said.
