Muslim groups call for regulation of MP speech over ‘anti-Arab disinformation’

Muslim advocacy organizations are calling on Parliament to regulate what they describe as disinformation by politicians targeting Arab Canadians, urging the Office of the Ethics Commissioner to hold elected officials accountable for spreading harmful narratives.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the proposal is outlined in a new report titled Documenting The Palestine Exception, released by York University’s Islamophobia Research Hub.

Criminals who cross-dress can now avoid deportation

Another week, another mad story from the immigration courts. According to the Telegraph, a 27-year-old Algerian criminal has been permitted to stay in Britain as a refugee because he describes himself as transgender.

The man entered the UK in 2013, illegally. Citing the ‘situation’ in Algeria, he was given limited leave to remain as a refugee by UK authorities. Following a string of offences – including burglary, theft and battery – that landed him in jail, the Home Office issued a deportation order in 2022. He appealed, arguing that the fact he ‘was and is a transvestite and / or transgender’ made it too dangerous for him to return to Algeria. He also said that his father ‘threatened to kill him’.

Could Systemic Corruption in British Columbia Explain Botched Narco Prosecutions and PRC Ferry Deal?

Sam Cooper – In this sweeping conversation with Jason James of BNN, I discuss some of The Bureau’s biggest investigations of the summer — including the widening pattern of prosecutorial failures in major synthetic narcotics and money laundering cases in British Columbia. We spotlight the recent collapse of charges against a Chinese-state linked scientist accused of importing over 100 kilograms of precursors for MDMA production.

Get woke, go broke: Howard Stern’s $500M fall from relevance

Howard Stern didn’t just have a radio show. He had a revolution. He was brash, vulgar, and fearless. He gave voice to the silenced, told dirty jokes with conviction, and turned a microphone into a battering ram against establishment sanctimony. But somewhere along the line, the rebel became the regime.

In the 1980s, Stern made his mark as a shock jock icon, captivating millions with raw, uncensored radio that thumbed its nose at polite society. He was a champion of free speech, someone who understood that everyday Americans—especially working-class listeners—wanted truth, not scripted politeness. He gave it to them, and they gave him their loyalty.

Fitting Punishments for Barack Obama?

Ask a Republican if Barack Obama belongs in prison and you’re likely to hear a resounding yes!

With Tulsi Gabbard’s release of hundreds of thousands of documents many of which reveal Barack Obama’s treason against the United States, is it inevitable that he or, darn it, more likely, his closest aides and advisors are indicted? With each passing day, more comes to light. Nevertheless, the matter is in question. As many on the Right have long observed, GOP leaders traditionally have been feckless when it comes to taking definitive action against Democrat.

Michael Higgins: The United Church’s abhorrent excuses for October 7

It is loathsome when anyone describes the butchery that happened in Israel on October 7 as an act of “resistance,” but it is particularly troubling when it comes from people within the United Church of Canada.

Such hateful rhetoric can be found in a proposal that will be considered by the church’s general council meeting, which starts Thursday. It begins by stating that “the Gaza genocide is the most recent and most severe expression of the colonialist oppression of the state of Israel upon the Palestinian people.”


That is one sick church.

British police are unprepared for violent disorder

Driving home from holiday on a French motorway last week, we were passed by a convoy of gendarmes. Nine or 10 large blue vans, lights flashing, hurried past at high speed. I never did find out where they were going or what they were doing, but I was quite keen to get out of their way. La Gendarmerie Nationale has a reputation for ferocity, as you might expect from a unit of the armed forces.

The sight of the convoy was a timely reminder that the French state, with a population almost identical to that of Britain, has vastly more police and public-order resources available than our own authorities. The gendarmes number almost 100,000 officers, while the National Police employs another 145,000, although that figure includes civilian and support workers. With local municipal forces, the total rises to around 250,000. In comparison, the British figure, including the Police Service of Northern Ireland, is around 170,000.

Carney tells Métis leaders Indigenous rights are ‘at the core’ of major projects law

Prime Minister Mark Carney told Métis leaders on Thursday their voices will be heard and rights respected as the Liberal government implements its legislation to fast-track major projects deemed to be in the national interest.

As he opened a small summit in Ottawa, Carney said for too long economic and public policy decisions were made without listening to Métis voices. But “we’re listening now,” he added.

“Respecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples is at the core of the Building Canada Act. It’s embedded in the law itself,” Carney said inside the Centre for Geography and Exploration at 50 Sussex Drive, along the Ottawa River.

The Media and a Mob in Cincinnati

When a mob violently attacked two people in downtown Cincinnati last week, video of the beat-down spread across social media. But not a single major television network covered the story. It didn’t fit the mainstream media’s narrative about racial violence in America. The victims were white, and as of Wednesday police had arrested six black suspects for their alleged roles in the public pummeling.

Today’s media seems to conflagrate over violence only when the perpetrator is white and the victim is black. Then the cameras roll, protests erupt, and hashtags fly. But when the races are reversed, the mainstream media buries the incident or ignores it entirely. The same is true of black-on-black violence.

Carney’s Canada

At the end of the 1880s, reports Desmond Morton in “A Short History of Canada,” the United States was booming while Canada stagnated. Even Friedrich Engels, during a visit to the U.S. and Canada in 1888, recognized “how necessary the feverish speculative spirit of the Americans is for the rapid development of a new country.” However, the situation was so bad in Canada that opposition leader Wilfrid Laurier, who became prime minister in 1896, ruefully stated, “We have come to a period in the history of this young country when premature dissolution seems to be at hand.”
