OTTAWA — Canada is holding firm on recognizing Palestinian statehood next month, even as Germany wavers.
During a press conference in Berlin with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on Tuesday, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said his country will not be joining other western nations in officially recognizing Palestinian statehood at the United Nations General Assembly.
Done only for votes.

Yazidi family in Winnipeg pleads for answers from Immigration Canada after ‘unclear X-Rays’
The Elias family’s glimmer of hope of being reunited with loved ones in Turkey is fading after the latest setback in the long process to acquire visas for them.
The Yazidi family living in Winnipeg was feeling optimistic after extended family members were granted interviews and medical assessments by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) last week.
Dearborn has become the model city of America’s double standard: where a non-Muslim can be jailed for a reckless Facebook post, but Muslims can openly chant ‘Death to America’ and glorify terrorists without consequence.

You might have seen those bright yellow fields reaching toward the horizon under a clear blue sky — fields of canola spread across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, bringing in billions of dollars each year for farmers and their families.
Now the annual harvest is in danger: one of Canada’s biggest customers, China, has slapped a 76 per cent tariff on canola seed, as well as a 100 per cent tariff on canola oil and meal. Why has it done this? In retaliation for the 100 per cent tariff Canada applied to Chinese electric vehicles starting last October. We were copying the United States at the time, back when relations between our two countries were more cordial, to protect the American and Canadian auto industries. But the Canadian sector, which operates mostly in Ontario, has yet to produce a single EV.

Hadush Kebatu, from Ethiopia, allegedly propositioned the teenagers “without any encouragement” after accepting an offer of food from them in Epping, Essex, on 7 July.
Allegations of the incident led to a wave of anti-immigration protests and counter-demonstrations outside The Bell Hotel, where Mr Kebatu is staying as an asylum seeker.

“Something happened in 2021” that has jeopardized air travel safety, according to a disturbing report by Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, a retired airline pilot and immunology expert.
Mounting evidence points to the COVID-19 vaccinations that airlines, acting under pressure from the U.S. government, mandated or otherwise coerced their cockpit, cabin, and ground crews into taking.
As he delivered the hard sell pitch last spring for Canada to buy his submarines, Oliver Burkhard, the CEO of Germany’s ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS), used the phrase “strategic partnership” half a dozen times.
Canada would be part of “a family,” he said.
We will — perhaps — soon get a better sense whether that approach is music to the ears of Prime Minister Mark Carney and key members of his cabinet.
Gotta admit the Germans have practical experience.
Surgeons in China have conducted a successful pig-to-human lung transplant which they say demonstrated the feasibility of the procedure – even if substantial further tests are still required.
According to scientists at the National Clinical Research Center for Respiratory Disease in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou, the pig lung, which was transplanted into a brain-dead human recipient, “maintained viability and functionality” for 216 hours (nine days) without becoming infected or being rejected by its host.
The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) is warning that while the U.S. suspension on new visas for foreign truck drivers won’t have much, if any, impact on Canadian drivers, it should be seen as a warning to industry to clean up its act.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted on X last week that the U.S. is immediately pausing the issuance of all visas to truck drivers which require them to operate in the U.S.
And to add insult to injury, notice below… the “no u-turn” sign with in a few feet of when this illegal immigrant tried to do exactly that!
Another truck driver in Canada just pulled the same stunt!

On occasion the CBC does good work. I expect those responsible for the trucker expose were executed however.

The amount of time the vast majority of youth are spending on the internet far exceeds the daily recommended “screen time,” according to a new federal report.
The vast majority (89 to 96 percent) of youth in grades 6 to 10 exceed the recommended daily screen time of two hours, according to a report published by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) on July 23, which was first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.
Mom kicked us out of the house by 8 or 9 so that limited our screen time.
