U.S. bill calls for more integration between Canadian, American border agents

The U.S. Congress is being asked to adopt legislation that could lead to Canada and the United States further integrating their enforcement of the border — including allowing U.S. officers to more freely operate on Canadian soil.

House Resolution 5518, introduced by New York Republican Rep. Nicholas Langworthy, calls on U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to “negotiate or amend existing agreements with the Government of Canada, as appropriate, for integrated cross-border aerial, maritime and land law enforcement operations.”

The bill also calls for U.S. officers to operate in Canada, and for Canadian officers to operate in the U.S., “for the purpose of enhancing border security or law enforcement co-operation or operations, including for the purposes of conducting operations in the land, air and maritime domain.”

The Elbow people will be incensed.

Did You Catch Nancy Pelosi’s Train Wreck Interview on CNN?

Nancy Pelosi’s appearance on CNN on Wednesday was nothing short of a trainwreck. The former House Speaker sat down with Dana Bash and delivered such a terrible performance that even the CNN anchor had to repeatedly correct her and push back on statements that simply didn’t align with reality. It was the kind of interview that leaves people wondering whether someone is fit to remain in public office, and Pelosi did herself no favors with her rambling, contradictory answers.

LILLEY: Is Carney ready to surrender Canada’s auto industry?

It seemed like a nice meeting, albeit with few tangible results, when Mark Carney met with Donald Trump at the White House on Tuesday. Yet, what may come of that meeting could be a major overhaul of the Canadian economy.

Apparently, Carney talked about reviving the Keystone XL pipeline as part of his discussions with Trump. He also raised the issue of critical minerals with the American president, but there is one industry feeling left out and concerned — the auto industry.

L.A. County considers declaring state of emergency to fight back against ICE raids

As the Trump administration continues its immigration crackdown in Southern California, the L.A. County Board of Supervisors is considering issuing a state of emergency to provide the board with more power to assist those affected by the deluge of detainments and deportations.

“This escalation [in raids] puts thousands of our neighbors in extreme peril, so I believe we need to act now,” said Supervisor Lindsey Horvath, asserting that the declaration is necessary “to give us every tool available to fight back.”

California is determined to destroy itself.

More than 153,000 people harmed in Canada’s hospitals last year, study finds

Two decades after a watershed report on errors and unintended injuries in Canada’s hospitals shook the health-care sector, tens of thousands of Canadians continue to be harmed during a hospital stay — many of them, multiple times, new data show.

One in 17 hospitalizations in 2024-2025 — representing more than 153,000 people — resulted in someone experiencing a potentially preventable harm such as a drug error, hospital-acquired infection, a “patient accident” like a fall or radiation burn or some other incident serious enough to require treatment or a prolonged stay, according to the Canadian Institute for Health Information.

Kristi Noem compares antifa to MS-13, Hamas, Hezbollah and the Islamic State

The homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, on Wednesday compared antifa to MS-13, Hamas, Hezbollah and the Islamic State, calling the loosely affiliated network of antifascist street activists “just as dangerous” as designated terrorist organizations during a White House roundtable discussion.

“They are just as sophisticated as MS-13, as TDA [Tren de Aragua], as Isis, as Hezbollah, as Hamas, as all of them, they are just as dangerous,” Noem said. “They have an agenda to destroy us, just like the other terrorists we’ve dealt with for many, many years.”

The roundtable featured rightwing social media journalists such as Andy Ngo, Nick Sortor, Katie Daviscourt and others who cover leftwing protests.

Will the 2026 World Cup be a disaster for fans?

Immigration difficulties, mass deportation raids and climate issues have plagued the United States, the biggest of the three World Cup host countries, for most of 2025. With the first phase of ticket sales leaving fans astounded by the record-high prices, it raises the question: how much will fans really be able to enjoy the 2026 World Cup?

A disaster for fans? Maybe. But the “organizers” will suffer no financial loss, the tax payer will pick up the tab.

White beaver proves racism is part of Canada’s DNA

Rare white beaver wows Ottawa-area wildlife watchers

On a river near Perth, Ont., a boatload of wildlife photographers silently stalked their quarry on a recent fall evening.

With an electric trolling motor providing propulsion, the water remained millpond-flat as they glided upstream. But then a splash rang out like a shot as their target’s tail slapped the water and the creature dove beneath the surface.

The mythical white beaver had smelled them.

What we know about the ‘first phase’ of the Gaza peace deal

US President Donald Trump says Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of his Gaza peace plan, in a major step towards a permanent end to their war.

It comes two years and two days after the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others taken hostage.

This triggered a massive Israeli military offensive in Gaza, which has killed more than 67,100 people, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.

With Mideast Deal, Trump Is on the Brink of a Major Diplomatic Accomplishment

President Trump is at the brink of the biggest diplomatic accomplishment of his second term — a cessation of the brutal war between Israel and Hamas — and on Wednesday evening he made clear he was eager to fly to the Middle East to preside over a cease-fire and welcome hostages who have spent two long years in underground captivity.

For Mr. Trump, success in this venture is the ultimate test of his self-described goal as a deal maker and a peacemaker — and a pathway to the Nobel Peace Prize he has so openly coveted. By chance, the winner for 2025 is scheduled to be announced just hours before he may be departing to take his victory lap in Egypt and Israel.

Arabic ‘O Canada’ on October 7 is institutional capture

A Toronto high school’s decision to play an Arabic version of “O Canada” on Oct. 7 — the two-year anniversary of Hamas’s massacre of 1,200 and kidnapping of 251 in southern Israel — was not an act of inclusion. It was a calculated political statement.

The only official versions of “O Canada,” as defined by the federal National Anthem Act, are in English and French. Other languages may be shared culturally, but never as a replacement. The decision to broadcast an Arabic version on Oct. 7 by Earl Haig Secondary School was an unmistakable act of defiance.

Some of us Islamophobes have been pointing out this ‘institutional capture’ for years. Decades even.

Our school boards and  provincial government first decided that anti-White hatred was an acceptable part of school curriculum.

Anti-White hatred opened the door to the antisemitism we see today.

Is the Royal Navy’s flagship aircraft carrier already out of date?

From the surface of its flight deck, in the waters between Malaysia and Indonesia, HMS Prince of Wales is a vision of deadly splendour, the most advanced warship in the history of the Royal Navy.

Its radars can detect an object as small as a tennis ball 15 miles away. Its laser-guided Phalanx gun stands poised to blast out of the water any enemy who gets too close. Its fifth-generation F-35 stealth fighter jets fly at supersonic speeds and land vertically like helicopters on its 280m-long deck.

Lutnick dismisses any prospect of auto deal between U.S. and Canada: sources

U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is dismissing any prospect of a comprehensive auto deal with Canada, according to three sources in the room when he made the comments.

Lutnick made the comments during a discussion under Chatham House Rules at the Eurasia Group’s Canada-U.S. Summit in Toronto on Wednesday, one day after the second in-person meeting in Washington between U.S. President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney.

According to the sources, Lutnick said the U.S. could continue buying parts from Canada, “but that’s about it.”

This will gut jobs in Ontario, how many may remain for parts mfg and export I do not know.

Trump told the US autoworkers he would bring back production during his election campaign.

I think that’s why he threw the race to Carney. Better optics to beat up on a Liberal than a Conservative.
