COOPER: The Freedom Convoy exposed Ottawa’s dangerous war on dissent

In early April 2026, Tamara Lich, who helped organize the 2022 truckers’ Freedom Convoy to Ottawa, gave a talk at the University of Calgary. One of the largest lecture theatres, holding over 400 people, was nearly filled. She spoke for an hour and a half without notes and then took another half hour of questions. In return for some minimal assistance in booking the room, I was rewarded with a collection of chocolates (since consumed) and a copy of her book, Hold the Line: My Story from the Heart of the Freedom Convoy. Her talk and her book embodied in my mind the last gasp of Canadian self-respect and pride. More surprisingly, it also expressed the much rarer view that the struggle against bureaucratic tyranny directed by the Government of Canada was more spiritual than political.

‘It will end when I die’: Mustafa was 14 when he was first raped by a group of men. Now, 80 assaults later, he reveals how dancing boys are being dressed as girls and brutalised by sick Taliban officials – and why it’s getting worse

He cannot escape the memory of the knife. He holds his hand up and shows me the scar on the underside of his arm, just below the wrist. ‘I resisted,’ he explains, ‘so they forced me.’

Mustafa looks bereft as he recounts the first time he was abused. He was 14 years old.

‘My friends told me to come to a garden where we would eat fruit and drink nice juices,’ he tells me. ‘When I arrived seven men were waiting. I tried to resist. I shouted and screamed but they tied my hands and legs.

Toronto-Quebec high-speed rail slush fund project should balloon to $150-billion over 40 years, document shows

An internal document obtained by The Globe and Mail shows the full cost of a high-speed rail line from Toronto to Quebec City is estimated at about $150-billion once four decades of operating and maintenance expenses are included – a figure that is well above the range regularly cited by federal officials.

Alto – the Crown corporation responsible for the massive infrastructure project – says the high-speed rail line will cost between $60-billion and $90-billion. The organization has said a more precise cost estimate will be released as the project is advanced.

When Iceland Said No to Brussels

“It is generally held that few nations have endured oppression and tyranny with greater politeness than the Icelanders. For centuries … they lived in understanding accommodation with oppression, without ever making an attempt at rebellion. To no nation was the very concept of revolution more alien. Icelanders were always ready to kiss the rod that struck them hardest, and to believe that the most cold-blooded executioner was their truest source of help and their safest refuge.”

So wrote Halldór Laxness in 1933, more than two decades before becoming Iceland’s only Nobel laureate in literature. Ninety-three years later, Icelanders appear to have misplaced some of their famous politeness.

Trump to refill US oil reserve with Venezuelan crude as Canada faces new competition

CALGARY — US President Donald Trump said Sunday the United States will be using its newfound control over Venezuela’s crude oil to refill America’s depleted Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

In a Truth Social post, Trump said he would “fill up” the reserve because it had been “virtually emptied” during “Sleepy Joe Biden’s” tenure as president.

Scott Bessent Roasts Canada’s Supposed ‘Tit-for-Tat’ Tariff War: ‘What Are They Gonna Do?

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has developed a reputation for delivering the Trump administration’s message with an unusually eloquent, and frequently sarcastic, edge, and Canada was the latest target.

In a CNBC interview Monday, Bessent laughed off the idea that Ottawa could meaningfully pressure the United States as the two countries escalate their trade war. The exchange came just a week after Washington and Ottawa imposed 50 percent tariffs on one another following failed negotiations to come to a trade agreement the Trump administration found satisfactory.

🔥 LMFAO! Sec. Scott Bessent just DROPPED THE MIC on Canada. Brutal.

CNBC: Are we in a tit-for-tat trade war with Canada?

BESSENT: I don't think you can be in a tit-for-tat with someone who's 13 times larger than you.

CNBC: They say they're doing OK

BESSENT: What else are… pic.twitter.com/VbHATNopEA

As US-Canada tensions flare, who’s calling the shots in Trump’s trade team?

Having reportedly read Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables, in French, during a military tour of duty in Iraq, Jamieson Greer considered himself an unlikely target for accusations of francophobia.

But Donald Trump’s US trade representative, hitherto one of the president’s less high-profile cabinet members, found himself in that uncomfortable position amid the acrimonious collapse of bilateral trade talks with Canada that now threatens to degenerate into an all-out trade war between the two close trading partners whose economies are tightly intertwined.

An apparent pending deal between Washington and Ottawa aimed at avoiding damaging tit-for-tat tariffs broke down at the last minute, with Canada’s prime minister, Mark Carney, claiming his country had come “under attack” from the US.

The Left Would Hate for You to Know These Things About Trump

The mainstream media have spent pretty much every moment since Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president of the United States portraying him as an evil, cruel, empathy-free tyrant who couldn’t manage a kind word for anyone outside his own family. Joe Biden practically built his entire 2020 campaign on that same premise, insisting that the election came down to character, and that Trump simply didn’t have it.

Republican Party blocks Islamist media outlet CBC/Radio-Canada from convention after support of 9/11 terrorists uncovered

OTTAWA — U.S President Donald Trump’s Republican Party has revoked the CBC/Radio-Canada’s press access to its upcoming midterm convention, citing the public broadcaster’s now-reversed policy not to refer to 9/11 as “terrorism” without direct attribution, National Post has learned.

A CBC spokesperson confirmed Monday that the Republican National Convention (RNC) had revoked access for both CBC and Radio-Canada to its major party gathering on Sept. 9 and 10, ahead of key mid-term elections.

Who is taking Islam seriously?

Imploring a young audience to “discard the stuck-on-stupid card,” retired Lieutenant Colonel Alan West then quoted poet Maya Angelou, “When people show you who they are the first time, believe them.” Spoken not just once, “Death to America” has been bellowed a gazillion times by Islamic Shias in Iran and elsewhere including Dearborn, MI. Do you believe them? If not, you own a “stuck-on-stupid” card.

In New York City, Muslims on Times Square incessantly shouted, “Allahu Akbar.” The leader addressing the hyped-up horde said sarcastically, “Don’t scare them, brothers. Relax brothers. Who has seen those videos saying, ‘Oh my God, the Muslims are taking over New York.’ You’ve seen those.” (The “brothers” laugh.) Doubling down, the leader yelled, “Let them know we are taking over New York” as the frenzied mob belted out, “Allahu Akbar.” Do you think they’re serious? If not, you ‘ve got a “stuck-on-stupid” card.

The U.S. has always wanted to absorb Canada for our natural resources

An American corporate executive who married my Montreal cousin decades ago always insisted that Canada in time would be absorbed by the U.S. It was inevitable, he said. The most powerful nation in the world would be hungry for all our northern resources and Canada would be powerless to fight back.

If the negotiating terms the Trump team recently offered Canada is anything to go by, Trump would seem to hold a similar view today.
