Donald Trump is ‘coming at us hard,’ Doug Ford warns after trade briefing from Mark Carney

 

After huddling with Prime Minister Mark Carney and the other premiers, Doug Ford is expressing concern President Donald Trump will escalate his trade war against Canada.

Ford warned the potential renegotiation of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) could be even more economically debilitating than the current tariff crisis.

“Fasten our seatbelt. CUSMA, or USMCA, whatever you want to call it, he’s coming at us hard. He is going to come at us with everything he has and we have to make sure that we’re ready,” he told reporters at Queen’s Park on Wednesday.

I was persecuted for being a Christian, says teacher sacked over Connolly comments

A teacher who was sacked after saying Lucy Connolly was a victim of “two-tier policing” says he has been persecuted for being a Christian.

Simon Pearson, 56, was accused of Islamophobia after saying in a private Facebook group that Connolly should not have been jailed, and believes he would still be in a job if he had been accused of offending Christians and not Muslims.

Israeli president decries Hamas ‘manipulation’ after German media exposes ‘staged’ Gaza photography

JERUSALEM — During a visit to Tallinn, Estonia, on Wednesday, Israeli President Isaac Herzog used a joint press appearance with Estonia’s president to call out what he described as Hamas-led propaganda efforts, citing recent investigative reports from leading German newspapers that revealed “staged” images from Gaza.

Carney repeats housing pledge lie despite data showing goal is out of reach

Prime Minister Mark Carney is standing by his promise to double home construction to 500,000 units a year, even as federal data shows the target is far beyond the country’s current building capacity.

Blacklock’s Reporter says Carney offered no explanation for how his government plans to overcome the well-documented obstacles.

Russian Opposition Leader Predicts Peace Upcoming, Says Biden Administration Was ‘Afraid of Ukraine’s Victory’

Ten years after Ilya Ponomarev fled from Russia, the Putin government launched its fifth assassination attempt, leaving his Ukrainian home in ruins while the opposition leader and his wife were rushed, covered in blood, to the hospital. Three hundred sixty-eight days later, Ponomarev sat down with The American Spectator in Washington, D.C., for an exclusive interview.

Why Raining Justice On The Russia Hoaxers Is So Tricky — And So Important

How do the American people get justice for arguably the greatest political scandal in U.S. history? This question looms over the Trump administration as Russiagate — or Obamagate, as it perhaps should be known — continues unraveling.

At least nine years after this sordid scandal began, it has become ever clearer that, at the direction of President Barack Obama, the leaders of his national security and intelligence apparatus used and abused their awesome powers to baselessly frame Donald Trump as a traitor. They did this in seeming coordination with foreign governments, the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign, and regime media.

Canadian Constitution Foundation joins appeal of ludicrous OHRT decision to fine mayor opposed to proclaiming Pride Month

The Canadian Constitution Foundation will be taking part in a judicial review of an Ontario Human Rights Tribunal decision to fine a northern Ontario town and mayor $15,000 for refusing to declare Pride Month.

In November 2024, the tribunal fined Mayor Harold McQuaker and the municipality of Emo, Ont., a total of $15,000 after an adjudicator ruled a comment by the mayor before a vote against the proclamation “proved that the vote was motivated by discrimination.”

“The CCF will argue the tribunal failed to consider Mayor McQuaker’s Charter-protected right to freedom of expression,” the group said in a news release Wednesday.

Did Pride protect a predator?

Whistleblowers were ignored for years

Stephen Ireland, the charismatic founder of Pride in Surrey (PiS), used to be regarded as something of a local hero. He was a trusted member of the community with a regular slot on local radio. And he was often seen being driven around by the police in their rainbow-emblazoned police car.

But then, in June, the mask slipped. He was sentenced for six counts of making indecent images of children, three counts of causing a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity, and the rape of a 12-year-old boy referred to in court as Child A.

Canada’s wildfires may be impossible to extinguish?

The Albany Times Union headline read:

 Not so easy: Dousing the Canadian wildfires may not be possible.

It may not be possible to put out the Canadian wildfires?! Humans learned how to fly. Americans and Canadians have won two world wars.

Mankind has been to the moon and sent unmanned craft around the solar system — and beyond.

And Canada can’t put out a fire?

Britain’s broken borders are endangering children

It has become a depressing pattern. In London this week, a Pakistani asylum seeker was charged with allegedly raping an eight-year-old girl. It follows two Afghan asylum seekers being charged in connection with the rape of a 12-year-old in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, and the alleged attempted kidnapping of a 10-year-old in Stockport, Greater Manchester by a Sudanese migrant. There are now near-daily reports of men seeking asylum in Britain accused of depraved sexual crimes.

Richard Robertson: Carney’s Palestine recognition a foreign policy blunder

Last week, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada intends to recognize a Palestinian state in September. This would be a dangerous, highly premature decision — and a foreign policy blunder that could embarrass Canada while compounding the crisis in the Middle East instead of bringing Israelis and Palestinians anywhere closer to a lasting peace.

If it means winning the Muslim-Left vote bloc then Carney is happy.

Canada’s reputation was destroyed under Trudeau’s reign.

There are no eggs left to break so Carney may as well go along to get along with whoever he might strike a deal with.

Oxford Street shoppers told: ‘Mind the grab’ and guard your phone

Purple lines along pavement remind pedestrians to keep devices hidden on London shopping route

Britain’s biggest electrical retailer has warned people not to use mobile phones near the edge of pavements after a surge of thefts in the capital.

Purple lines have been painted along Oxford Street to remind pedestrians to step back from the kerb and keep their mobiles hidden.

I like the meme response.

French Prefect Warns Rampant Migrant Crime Plagues Rhône Cities

Algerian illegal immigrants commit crimes knowing that the failing system will let them go virtually unpunished.

Fabienne Buccio, the prefect of France’s Rhône department, has fired warning shots about escalating crime rates tied to Algerian nationals in her region while expressing deep frustration over Algier’s persistent refusal to accept deportees. Her assessment reveals a growing crisis where offenders operate with what she describes as a “feeling of impunity,” knowing deportation efforts will likely fail.

Speaking in an interview making waves across French media, Buccio revealed alarming statistics: foreign-born individuals account for a staggering 60% of arrests in the Rhône department, which includes Lyon, France’s third-largest city. Even more striking is the fact that at least half of these arrestees are Algerian nationals.

BERNARDO: Forget the gun ban rhetoric, the numbers tell the truth

The numbers don’t lie. In 2024, more Canadians than ever earned their Possession and Acquisition Licences (PALs,) and that’s good news for public safety, no matter what the politicians say.

“The number of adults in Canada with a government-approved gun licence rose to a new high in 2024,” writes Nicolas Johnson, “again defying the Liberal Party-led administration’s actions to criminalize gun users and confiscate our gear.”

The Disinformation of “Genocide is a Process”

In a July 31, 2025, op-ed in the Globe and Mail, Mark Kersten, an assistant professor in criminal justice at the University of the Fraser Valley, conflates the war in Gaza between Hamas and Israel with various global genocides. Unbelievably, he also ties Canada’s Indian Residential School (IRS) history to a claim of genocide, using it as the anvil to hammer out his theme that genocide is a process and not an event. I say ‘unbelievably’ because this is a disgusting conflation, but since Canada’s House of Commons compliantly adopted a motion by ‘unanimous consent’* to recognize Indian Residential Schools as genocide on Oct. 27, 2022, without a shred of evidence or debate, nor any due process, maybe it’s now par for the course to exploit the word ‘genocide’ for any activist cause.
