Canada Post unveils new stamp in Kitchener honouring Sikh Canadian soldiers

A new Canada Post stamp paying tribute to Sikh Canadian soldiers was unveiled Sunday at the 18th annual Sikh Remembrance Day ceremony at Mount Hope Cemetery in Kitchener.

The stamp honors the service and contributions of Sikh soldiers in the Canadian military dating back to the First World War.

Sandeep Singh Brar, curator of Sikh Museum.com, says the stamp is more than just a tribute to the soldiers.

… During the First World War, only 10 Sikhs were permitted to serve in the Canadian army.

… “Thousands of Sikhs at the time tried to join, but they were turned away. They were told that ‘Sorry fellas, this is a white man’s war,'” Brar said.

Ottawa seeking mass visa cancellation powers to deter fraud from India: internal documents

The federal government is seeking the power to cancel applications for groups of visa holders at least in part due to concerns of fraud from India and Bangladesh, according to internal documents obtained by CBC News.

A departmental presentation to the immigration minister’s office said that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and unnamed U.S. partners are aiming to identify and cancel fraudulent visitor visa applications.

Report: Foreign Charities Have Pumped $2 Billion Into U.S.-Based Leftist Groups

Nearly half a dozen foreign charities have dumped more than a billion dollars into numerous U.S.-based leftist organizations and causes in recent years, according to a new investigative report.

Released on Friday, the new analysis by Americans for Public Trust (APT) shows how five overseas charities have collectively funneled almost $2 billion into left-wing groups, policy fights, and more “to advance their extreme, foreign, activist agenda” in America. These causes, according to the report, range from funding climate alarmist demonstrations and campaigns to environmental-related litigation.

Newsflash to Mark Carney’s housing minister: house prices do in fact have to come down

For a faint second, it seemed as though federal Housing Minister Gregor Robertson had finally seen the light. During a House of Commons finance committee appearance recently, headlines reported that Robertson acknowledged what should be an obvious truth — that “the average home price must fall” to make housing affordable again.

This was welcome news for both the generations of Canadians locked out of home ownership and housing advocates, many of whom roundly lambasted the minister earlier this year when he insisted, multiple times, that housing prices don’t need to fall.

Why Socialism?

The attraction – and darkness – of stirring up envy and resentment.

On November 4th, barring an improbable upset, self-professed socialist and jihad enabler Zohran Mamdani will become New York City’s next mayor. That outcome is a sure bet given the Democrats’ permanent nasty pique over Donald Trump’s victory, especially in deep blue New York, and the Dem’s young left-wing being fed up with the party’s elderly establishment.

The Huntingdon horror: this is not normal

We are being encouraged to see even preventable atrocities as part and parcel of everyday life.

‘Be vigilant.’ Among the oddly muted government responses to the mass stabbing on a train heading from Doncaster to London on Saturday night, the words of UK defence secretary John Healey stuck most in the craw. You’d think he was talking about a rise in pickpocketing, not another act of barbarism on British soil.

Joe Adam George: In Canada, radicalization is happening in plain sight

Last month, the Ahlul-Bayt Mosque, a prominent Shiite Islamic centre in Windsor, Ont., held a memorial to mark the first anniversary of slain Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah’s death. It was the second consecutive year the mosque — and its affiliated Islamic school — has celebrated the life of a dreaded militant whose organization is listed as a terrorist entity under Canadian law.

This was not a one-off incident. The mosque has previously hosted events glorifying the late Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khomeini and other Hezbollah “martyrs.”

BBC faked Trump’s Jan 6 speech

‘The BBC “doctored” a Donald Trump speech by making him appear to encourage the Capitol Hill riot, according to an internal whistleblowing memo seen by The Telegraph.

A Panorama programme, broadcast a week before the US election, “completely misled” viewers by showing the president telling supporters he was going to walk to the Capitol with them to “fight like hell”, when in fact he said he would walk with them “to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”.

Hex appeal: the rise of middle-class witches

Make up and costume test for actress Gale Sondergaard for the Wizard of Oz.

In King James VI of Scotland’s Daemonologie, written in 1597, he vigorously encourages witch-hunting and, in particular, the tossing of witches into the sea. Only the innocent would sink. As a way of identifying witches, it was clear and presumably efficient.

These days, we have no such clarity. But witches walk among us. I’m not talking about women in black pointy hats, but something far scarier: the middle-class witch. In the past, she might have been called a depressive, a spinster or a divorcée. Now, she’s probably a middle-aged woman in the Home Counties with a TikTok account, a litany of spells and deep trauma.

BARBER: Trump brings home deals, Carney brings home nothing

Both Prime Minister Mark Carney and President Donald Trump were in Asia. Prime Minister Carney visited Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea; he addressed the ASEAN Summit at his first stop. His address to the Association of South East Asian Nations lasted about five minutes.

His speech was generally meaningless, included buzzwords from the late-20th-century free-trade model with an ESG-DEI overlay. Such words as multilateralism, a rule-based system, sustainability, and inclusivity were sprinkled throughout. He repeated his “rupture” comment and, at times, seemed to plead.

Will the budget kill Carney’s honeymoon?

OAKVILLE, ONT.—As any etymologist will tell you, the word “decide” stems from the Latin decidere, which means “to kill off.”

The idea is, whenever you decide on an action, you’re essentially killing off all other options.

This is why politicians don’t like to make tough decisions; they don’t like to kill off options that might be popular with certain segments of the population.

Such a fraud.

How Universities Radicalized Young Women and Launched the Sex Wars

Communist propaganda, arguments for lesbianism, accusations of white supremacy, and conspiracy theories about rape culture: perhaps not what the average 19-year-old (or tax-paying parent thereof) was expecting when she registered for Philosophy of Sexual Politics at Paterson State University in Wayne, New Jersey c. 1974. But that’s what she got.

The class was taught by Professor Paula Rothenberg, a prominent feminist leader who called for the “radical transformation of all our institutions.” With Alison Jaggar, Rothenberg would go on to co-author one of the first women’s studies textbooks (Feminist Frameworks: Alternative Theoretical Accounts of the Relations Between Women and Men [1978]). Later, she published White Privilege: Essential Readings on the Other Side of Racism (2002).

Her New Jersey classroom became the laboratory in which young women were encouraged “to rethink every aspect of our lives.”

A very interesting read.

Canada is caught between a President and a hard place

Amid the tempest over the tariff ads, including U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra’s indignant response, there’s something else the Ambassador said last week that should worry Canadians more, as well as Americans who are concerned about their country’s direction: His accusation that the ads quoting Ronald Reagan on tariffs amounted to “interfering in the political affairs of a sovereign nation.”

U.S. exceptionalism takes many forms, and one is political openness, including in the way foreign governments are able to wheel and deal throughout the U.S. largely in the same ways as American business entities. This has remained true throughout the years, even though other countries don’t like U.S. diplomats walking their halls of power in the same way. Other nations are sensitive to American authority and influence – Canada among them.

Canada is being pushed into a hard choice between an unwelcome union with the USA or being virtually frozen out economically states the author.

The problem as I see it is that there is very little left of “Canada” to defend.

Canada’s elites have turned our cities into 3rd World Migrant Dumpsters destroying the economic hopes and dreams of a generation of young citizens while benefiting handsomely themselves.

Our heritage has been trashed by the Marxist-thugs allowed to flourish within public institutions enabled by complicit governments and their corporate crony’s.

How many of you voted to rob your children or grand children of their fair shot at a decent life, of owning a home, of having a job and raising a family? 

They haven’t just broken the social contract they’ve smashed it to pieces and shoved the shards down your throat. 

Make no mistake the mass immigration of incompatible cultures is a deliberate effort to erase the old Canada and replace it with an exploitable underclass.

Anti-Trump ‘Elbows up’ pseudo-patriotism is the codswallop our contemptuous elites dole out to the very people they have been exploiting.

Trump threatens their place at the trough so now you’re their BFF “in this together” ally until you’re not.

Ford says he has ‘different recollection’ of talk with Carney about anti-tariff ad

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he has a different recollection of his conversation with Prime Minister Mark Carney, who said he advised the Premier not to run an anti-tariff advertisement that angered U.S. President Donald Trump.

Mr. Ford also said the Prime Minister called him from his recent trip to Asia asking him to pull the ad, which featured a pro-free trade address from former president Ronald Reagan, but the Premier did not do so until days later.

The Premier added he would “never apologize” to Mr. Trump, as Mr. Carney did during his recent trip to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea.

THE INEVITABLE RACE WAR

It was really the rarest and quite honestly scariest of scenes.

What kicked it off was UKIP, the right-wing UK Independence Party, announcing a planned march in Whitechapel, a borough in the Tower Hamlets. The party’s announcement proclaimed it as one in a series of events to “reclaim Whitechapel from the Islamists.”

London Metropolitan Police almost instantly caved, banning UKIP from marching. They cited a “realistic prospect for serious disorder.”

And who would cause that disorder? The Met wouldn’t say, but everybody knew.
