Viva Quebec! Muslim leaders say Quebec report on secularism is discriminatory

A government committee’s 50 recommendations to Quebec, including extending the province’s religious symbols ban to subsidized daycares and requiring people to uncover their faces when receiving public services, are drawing criticism from some community leaders.

“We really have to ask some serious questions about the legitimacy of this report,” said Stephen Brown, president of the National Council of Canadian Muslims.

He said the nearly 300-page report released on Tuesday offering recommendations to strengthen secularism in Quebec is not suggesting that the government “proceed in the spectrum of neutrality.”


That is one very demanding death cult.

Migrants in Germany Plan to Stay For Good, Study Reveals

Almost all asylum seekers who came to Germany during the peak years 2013–2019 want to remain permanently and acquire citizenship, according to new research by the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW Berlin).

The findings confirm what liberals in Europe have been denying for a decade: that for many migrants, asylum has functioned less as temporary protection and more as a pathway to long-term settlement.

Geoff Russ: Immigration is how Poilievre will get back on top

Expect the Conservatives to come out swinging on immigration like never before when the House of Commons reconvenes next month.

Donald Trump gave the Liberals a lifeline to eke out another term in government in the spring, but the Liberals’ failure to get immigration under control is negatively impacting Canadians across the country.

Minneapolis school shooter Robin Westman confessed he was ‘tired of being trans’: ‘I wish I never brain-washed myself’

Transgender mass shooter Robin Westman confessed that he “was tired of being trans” and wished he “never brain-washed” himself in a manifesto posted online before he slaughtered two children and wounded dozens more at a Minneapolis church.

In a twisted handwritten journal he shared on YouTube before the massacre — much of which is encrypted in a homespun code of Russian Cyrillic script and English words — Westman groaned about his long hair and his decision to transition.

What made her/him do it?!

The lickspittle woke media in the USA and around the world are working feverishly today to keep people from drawing any transphobic inferences from today’s tragic murder in Minneapolis of two grade-school children by Robert/Robin Westman, an obvious product of the current fad for “transitioning”, which we used to call changing your sex.

Break into my home at your own risk

For a few years now, I’ve been mulling a question: should I have a baseball bat in my bedroom?

I often think about this late at night. By most standards, I live in a safe neighbourhood. Yet it seems these days there are few areas immune from break-and-enters. What if it happened in my home? What would I do? Confront the burglar in my pajamas shouting: “Get out, you rascal?” After he stopped laughing, he’d likely continue on his tour of the place to see what was worth stealing.

Tories Criticize Consideration of Immigration Status in Lighter Sentences for Criminals

Conservatives say courts should not consider the immigration status of convicted criminals when handing down sentences, warning that doing so would create a “two-tier” system.

Chinese Spies Hit More Than 80 Countries in ‘Salt Typhoon’ Breach, FBI Reveals

A Beijing-linked yearslong espionage campaign that hit U.S. telecom companies and swept up Donald Trump’s phone calls actually targeted more than 80 countries, reaching across the globe to a far greater extent than investigators initially understood.

The scope of the intrusion allowed Chinese intelligence officers to potentially surveil U.S. citizens’ private communications and track their movements around the globe, Brett Leatherman, the FBI’s top cyber official, said in an interview. The agency estimates that the intruders likely obtained more than one million call records and targeted the telephone calls and text messages of more than 100 Americans.

“This is one of the more consequential cyber espionage breaches we have seen here in the United States,” he said.

After more than 500 days of trial featuring more than 60 lawyers, BC Supreme Court Justice Barbara Young ruled in favour of the Cowichan Tribes, which brought the lawsuit more than seven years ago.
