New Cultures Bring New Customs!

Ontario orchard bans strollers, wagons and backpacks after some 500 pounds of apples stolen

The owners of an apple orchard in West Montrose, Ont., are fed up with people stealing the literal fruits of their labour.

Tim Shuh, operator of the pick-it-yourself Shuh Orchards near Kitchener, has introduced new rules for visitors this apple-picking season: banning them from bringing strollers, backpacks and wagons into the U-pick portion of the farm.

After two highly busy weekends in a row, Shuh said he reluctantly implemented the rules as a response to the noticeable and growing issue of theft.


I doubt it’s hordes of protestants swarming the orchard.

Britain isn’t a sharia state. But we need to wake up

Other faiths with their own religious courts are not seeking to impose their ‘laws’ on the rest of society

Donald Trump’s barnstorming speech at the UN included a particular claim about Britain that merits closer examination.

After berating delegates for leading their countries to disaster, claiming that Europe was being “invaded” by “illegal aliens”, the US president turned his attention to our capital city.

Having clearly not forgiven Sadiq Khan for allowing that giant baby blimp to be flown over Parliament Square when he visited in 2018, he said: “I look at London, where you have a terrible mayor, terrible, terrible mayor, and it’s been changed, it’s been so changed. Now they want to go to sharia law. But you are in a different country, you can’t do that.”

Trump knows what he’s talking about.

$34M in ‘questionable’ expenses found in audit of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations

A federal forensic audit of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) has led to recommendations that the organization review its policies after $34 million in questionable transactions were found.

The audit, posted online Wednesday, was conducted by KPMG LLP on behalf of Indigenous Services Canada’s (ISC) Assessment and Investigation Services Branch (AISB) and looked at $47.1 million in transactions between April 1, 2019 and March 31, 2024.


I bet it’s just the tip of the iceberg when all native funding is considered.

Make ‘Protesters’ Paid By Foreign Groups Register Like Foreign Agents

When most people hear the word “mercenary,” they conjure up images of shady men protecting corrupt regimes. Today, however, another mercenary prowls our streets: the paid protester.

A crucial element of the democratic process is free speech, debate, and yes, civil protests about public policy. But we should be concerned about interference by mercenaries funded by hostile foreign governments and nationals to manipulate public opinion, create costly public disturbances, and unduly influence government officials and institutions.

Europe’s Choice: Civilizational Realism or Social Breakdown

Europe faces a demographic and cultural crossroads. As aging populations and a shrinking workforce strain welfare systems, immigration is promoted as a key solution. But are immigrants to be viewed as ‘anywheres’ who can just be relocated to supply the labor market as needed? Spanish researcher Juan Ángel Soto thinks not. In his new report for the Danube Institute, The Empire Strikes Back: Why Civilisational Aspects Matter in Migration Policy, he argues that the civilisational legacies of former empires continue to influence the integration of migrants today.

“What I am trying to show in this work,” Soto explains to europeanconservative.com, “is that immigration cannot be analyzed solely in numbers or economics. There is a civilisational background that explains why some countries achieve better integration than others.”

Digital ID: we must resist this technocratic tyranny

So digital ID, the tyrannical policy that just won’t flush, has bobbed up into the Armitage Shanks bowl that is Keir Starmer’s Labour government. Out of ideas and with all the authority of an embattled supply teacher, the prime minister is falling back – yet again – on Continuity Blairism, on the great unfinished business of New Labour. Somewhere, in a lair under a dormant volcano, Tony Blair is stroking a cat and cackling incessantly.


At the press of a key you’re de-personed.

I believe we are much further along the road to dystopia than we realize.

A gulag is being built silently piece by piece.

Canadian musician says broadcast rules forced redaction of lyrics on dissent and policing

Changes to Canadian broadcasting rules have raised concerns among musicians and free-expression advocates, as artists report being unable to advertise their work unless certain lyrics are altered or removed.

On a recent episode of Liberty Talk with Odessa Orlewicz, Canadian musician Jayme Knyx said he was told that his songs could not be promoted with original lyrics that referenced political dissent and social issues. One example came from his track Freedom’s Call, which originally included the line “The chains of power silence our voice.”

Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis warns Liberals’ ‘hate’ bill will allow for prosecution of free speech

Canadian Conservative Party MP Leslyn Lewis blasted a new Liberal “hate crime” bill, calling it a “dangerous” piece of legislation that she says will open the door for authorities to possibly prosecute Canadians’ speech deemed “hateful.”

In an X post on Tuesday, Lewis slammed the Liberal government’s Bill C-9, or the Combating Hate Act, in a scathing post.

Lewis observed that the bill, as written, “expands state power to prosecute speech under unclear rules and with fewer checks on government abuse.”

Carney tells Starmer: cut taxes to avoid extremism

Mark Carney has urged Sir Keir Starmer to slash taxes on Britain’s middle class to stop them lurching to extreme politics such as communism.

The Canadian prime minister told his British counterpart that easing the burden on Middle England and reducing the cost of living was critical to winning back public support for Left-leaning political parties.

Mr Carney, a former governor of the Bank of England, warned that the UK was suffering a prolonged economic malaise similar to challenges which prompted the emergence of communism in the 1800s.


He seems perfectly happy to ignore his own advice in Canada.

Is Nato really ready to shoot down Russian jets?

Until recently, when Russian drones strayed into Nato airspace during mass attacks on Ukraine, fighter jets would scramble, not to shoot them down, but to watch. The allies tracked the drones as they flew across the Nato border, either jammed off course or deliberately redirected to confuse Ukrainian air defences. In both cases, if the drones didn’t crash into a field somewhere in Romania or Poland, they always made it back to bomb Ukrainians, under the close watch of Nato’s best pilots on fully loaded warplanes.
