Ivison: Dead comrades, no ammo and surrounded by Russians – Canadian Forces vet on the war in Ukraine

He described how the war has changed in the past three-and-a-half years, since the time he sent back video of him guiding mortar fire from a hide 600 metres away from the Russian lines.

“The fast progression of this war was unreal. It started with (the Russians being in the) next building beside you, close quarters combat. The next time I went back, there were a few drones for reconnaissance and they were armed. And then all of sudden I came back after that and joined the Vendetta group (59th brigade, 10th battalion Ukrainian Army). And when I got there, the place was littered with $400 drones with IEDs (improvised explosive devices) on them.

The father of the schoolgirl who was sexually assaulted by an Ethopian migrant who was mistakenly freed from prison has called for him to be ‘deported immediately’.

Hadush Kebatu was set loose from HMP Chelmsford on Friday in a humiliating blunder which saw a nationwide manhunt sparked before he was finally arrested in Finsbury Park, north London, at around 8.30am today.

The 38-year-old, who was was sentenced for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a woman while being housed at an asylum seeker hotel, was awaiting transfer to an immigration detention centre ahead of his planned deportation, but bungling prison staff freed him instead.

Mamdani’s Experiments Won’t Faze the Rich

New York’s business executives and wealthy residents are scrambling to convince likely mayor Zohran Mamdani to be just a little nice to them next year. But if elected, Mamdani won’t carry out most of his government experiments on them—rather, his agenda would disproportionately affect middle-class and poorer New Yorkers, who may not be aware of the cascading potential consequences of these policies.

Palestinians’ ‘Technocratic Government’: The Mother of All Deceptions

Are Egypt and Qatar working to ensure Hamas’s continued rule over the Gaza Strip by allowing the terror group to choose members of a new technocratic government?

Hamas has submitted a list of more than 40 “independent national figures” as potential candidates for forming a technocratic body to administer the Gaza Strip. Mohammed Nazzal, a senior Hamas official, told Qatar’s Al-Jazeera TV network that the proposed technocratic government is intended to “enhance humanitarian governance and management in the Gaza Strip in the aftermath of the war,” which erupted on October 7, 2023 when the terror group and thousands of ordinary Palestinians invaded Israel, murdered more than 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals, wounded thousands more, and kidnapped 251 people.

CHARLEBOIS: Premier Ford’s trade tantrum proves costly for Canada’s economy

The United States and President Donald Trump are clearly frustrated with Canada’s handling of trade negotiations involving softwood lumber, automotive parts, oil, aluminum and steel.

Whether Ontario’s anti-tariff advertising campaign — funded by the Doug Ford government — is the direct reason Washington raised tariffs from 35% to 45% on non-Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement imports is beside the point. What matters is the escalation reflects a deteriorating diplomatic climate that will have very real consequences for Canadian agri-food exporters.

Which Potential Trump Successor Will Draw the Most Media Heat?

The Wall Street Journal gets it.

In Friday’s edition, Journal columnist Holman Jenkins Jr. closed his column by saying, more than accurately, this, with bold print for emphasis supplied:

I’m guessing many flyover Democrats have long seen the party’s blunder in associating itself too closely with the national media. The self-defeating Russia hoax, the shameless, unnecessary politicization of Covid—both helped Mr. Trump. Most damning was the conniving of Team Biden to push a senile, unpopular incumbent past voters a second time even at the highly probable risk of returning Mr. Trump to the White House…

Amy Hamm: Not even parents can escape the speech police at B.C. schools

Who raises our children in B.C.? Parents, or schoolteachers and administrators? The latter two seem to think it’s their right. Examples abound.

Because of her political views, B.C. mother Bryony Dixon was barred last year from hosting students with her school district’s international homestay program. She responded by filing a complaint with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal (BCHRT). She alleges discrimination on the basis of political belief.

Why Are the Mental Bellyflops Denying Antifa’s Existence Again? This Might Be Why…

One of the lowest points in recent American history had to be when then-president of the United States, Joe Biden, and his director of the FBI, Christopher Wray, denied the existence of Antifa.

Let me re-word that: not too long ago, the president of the United States and his number one law enforcement agent publicly denied the existence of a group of violent commie anarchist yobbos who exist to tear down the country.

Nolte — Disney’s ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere’ Bombs in the U.S.A.

This is now Springsteen’s legacy to many former fans. working class hero’s don’t hang with Clintons. 

As great as I found director Scott Cooper’s Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, nothing about its box office failure is surprising. And it is not only a failure; it is a shocking failure for box office analysts who projected an opening as high as $25 million with a $15 million worst case.

Lawyer decries ‘double standard’ on Freedom Convoy, anti-Israel protests

On October 7, Ontario Court Justice Heather Perkins-McVey handed down conditional sentences to Tamara Lich and Chris Barber for their roles in the 2022 Freedom Convoy. Both Lich and Barber were found guilty of mischief, a criminal charge. While neither faces further jail time, their conditional sentences impose a year of house arrest, followed by six months under a curfew.

A Truck protest today would be one giant Sikh traffic smash-up.

Walking a fine line: Economists caution Canada on commitment to defence sector

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s promise to boost defence could deliver massive profit gains for companies but the big question is, where will the money come from?

The Carney government recently announced plans to raise Canada’s military budget to $150 billion by 2035 to meet a new NATO target of five per cent of GDP, the country’s largest increase since the Second World War.

The current budget sits at $62.7 billion after Ottawa added $9 billion this year. Some economists are skeptical about Canada reaching its target.

I wonder. Is the media walking back Carney’s promises for him?

Deadbeats are us!
