Tomahawk diplomacy: how Putin outmanoeuvred Zelensky

Ukrainians’ hopes that President Trump might conclusively swing behind their cause have once again been dashed.

On Friday, after a meeting with President Zelensky, Trump said he was looking forward to meeting President Putin and advocating a peace deal that would leave Russia in control of almost a fifth of Ukraine: “Stop at the battle line and both sides should go home, go to their families.”

One British diplomat said: “It’s a powerful reminder that while the Russians can often be crass and clumsy, they can also be unexpectedly nimble. This time, they outmanoeuvred Zelensky, there’s no point trying to pretend otherwise.”

GOLDSTEIN: Carney Liberals will never be tough on crime

The first problem with Prime Minister Mark Carney’s proposed “tough on crime” legislation is that being tough on crime is not in the Liberals’ DNA.

The origins of this dangerous philosophy can be traced back to Oct. 7, 1971, when Canada’s then-solicitor general, Jean-Pierre Goyer, representing the Liberal government of Pierre Trudeau, rose in Parliament to announce a new approach for dealing with criminals.

HORTON: Canada’s quasi-authoritarian moment? A framework for reflecting on the Trudeau era

In Canada, political administrations come and go. Some are painfully endured by citizens, while others pass swiftly, marked by prosperity and comfort. But due to the fast-paced nature of modern politics, we seldom take the time to reflect on past administrations. Instead, we become absorbed in the immediacy of current events.

Demanding Homage To Islam, Mamdani Proves Migration Without Assimilation Is Just Conquest

During Thursday’s New York City mayoral debate, socialist Zohran Mamdani implied former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is unqualified to be mayor because he hadn’t visited a mosque.

“He had more than 10 years and he couldn’t name a single mosque at the last debate we had that he visited,” Mamdani said, before going on to say that “Muslims … want equality and they want respect! … Can you name a single mosque you went to in 10 years?”

Sounds familiar …

MAGA kingpins with ‘damning’ dossier on George Soros reveal their next targets

Room 2501 of the Internal Revenue Service’s imposing headquarters on Constitution Avenue is to become the nerve center of Donald Trump’s new effort to investigate liberal funding groups.

It is home base for the IRS criminal investigation unit, known as IRS-CI, and its members are not ordinary tax agents. They carry guns and their predecessors succeeded where all other law enforcement agents failed – by taking down notorious mobster Al Capone over his finances.

Now, President Trump wants to give IRS-CI a new mission – to investigate left-wing funding groups, including those linked to billionaire investor and philanthropist George Soros, 95.

P.E.I. Land Regulator’s Past Ties to Law Firm Representing Buddhist Groups Raise Questions

OTTAWA — As Prince Edward Island calls for an RCMP investigation into allegedly suspicious foreign land acquisitions, The Bureau has learned that the prominent lawyer now chairing the province’s land regulator — the Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission (IRAC) — previously spent more than 20 years with the same P.E.I. law firm that represented Buddhist organizations IRAC was mandated to investigate.

How do so many women end up as ‘Feminists for Islam’?

Hamas fangirls, hijab sellers and deranged anti-Zionism made for a curious sight at the FiLiA feminist conference.

FiLiA – though it sounds like a knock-off sports shoe – is a gender-critical-feminist charity. Like any other lively organisation, it has had its fair share of skirmishes.

In 2015, Jane Fae (a man) pulled out of a conference due to divergent views on prostitution (the man was in favour – quelle surprise!). Julie Bindel and Caroline Criado-Perez also backed out as a result. Just last year, the woefully trans-captured Plaid Cymru banned the FiLiA stall from its spring conference in Caernarfon, after being informed that these feminists’ views were ‘potentially contrary to the party’s values’. (Amusingly, PC had to admit just a few months later that canceling FiLiA’s booking amounted to ‘an act of discrimination under the Equality Act 2010’.)

We conservatives need to take a stand against one of our own

“We must vigilantly stand on guard within our own borders for human rights and fundamental freedoms, which are our proud heritage … We cannot take for granted the continuance and maintenance of those rights and freedoms.”

These are not the words of some left-wing activist. They were spoken by Progressive Conservative prime minister John Diefenbaker. Long before Pierre Trudeau enshrined our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Diefenbaker was Canada’s champion of equality, passing the federal Bill of Rights in 1960.

Portugal bans burqas: Wearing face veils for ‘gender or religious reasons’ will bring fine of up to £3,475

Portugal’s parliament has approved a bill banning face veils worn for ‘gender or religious’ reasons in public, and people who wear them could face a hefty fine.

The measure was proposed by the far-right Chega party and would prohibit coverings such as burqas — a full-body garment that covers a woman from head to foot — and niqabs — the full-face Islamic veil with space around the eyes — from being worn in most public places.

Face veils would still be allowed in airplanes, diplomatic premises and places of worship.

Against the Cult of the Dignified Death

Imagine this scenario: An elderly wife has received a terminal diagnosis. She now knows how she will die. She is afraid. She does not want to suffer, nor gradually (or quickly) lose her faculties. It feels undignified. Who wants to suffer in front of their loved ones? She lives in the state of Washington, so instead, she elects to take her own life, supported by the state.

Her husband is in shock, he grieves before she is even dead. He is overwhelmed. He looks into his wife’s eyes and cannot imagine a home, or a life, without her in it. They have an adult daughter together—a human embodiment of the love that he and his wife have shared. He confides in his daughter about his grief, and further, about his fear of living alone after his wife’s passing.

This is a true story. The daughter does not shine.

McCRAE: The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation is lying to us

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew recently announced a $20 million dollar grant to the University of Manitoba for the construction of a new National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) at the University of Manitoba. In 2022, the federal government committed $60 million for the same project.

The University’s National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation is considered a key component of reconciliation in Canada, partly because, among other functions, the NCTR staff maintain a Memorial Register of student deaths at Indian residential schools.

The lure of China – What Carney hopes to gain from a Canadian reset with Beijing

Beijing’s biggest fish bazaar is a briny-smelling maze of stalls stocked with massive crabs from Russia, purple lobster from Australia and yellow croaker fish from China’s southeastern coast.

What’s increasingly hard to find at Jingshen Seafood Market, however, are products from Canada: the casualties of a punishing trade war between Ottawa and Beijing.

This lost business is becoming harder for Canada to write off as the United States under Donald Trump grows increasingly protectionist and unpredictable.

Catholic Churches Following Vatican as the Harshest and Most Consistent Critics of Trump’s Immigration Policies

A major driver behind President Trump’s re-election was the support he received from religious voters. However, the largest Christian denomination in the world has become one of the most consistent critics of the Trump administration’s immigration policies.

Despite Mr. Trump’s efforts to promote religious themes and maintain support among religious voters, one of his sharpest critics has been the Catholic Church, with harsh criticism coming not just from individual leaders or organizations but from the Vatican itself.

10 years later, Justin Trudeau’s ‘sunny ways’ are a distant memory

Somewhere this weekend, some federal Liberals may quietly mark an anniversary that many wouldn’t have predicted they would get to enjoy while still in power.

Ten years ago on Sunday, Justin Trudeau led his third-place party to a majority government, with promises of ”sunny ways” and the conviction that “better is always possible.”

Politics being politics, those feel-good slogans didn’t age all that well. Majority victories have eluded the Liberals in the subsequent decade and the most recent polls show that even with new leader Mark Carney, the party is still locked in a tight race with Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives.
