First Nations University president fired key whistleblower behind scathing review of her conduct

A three-month investigation into more than two dozen allegations against the president of First Nations University of Canada, commissioned by the institution’s board in 2023, concluded with a stark assessment of her conduct.

“The Investigator found that [President Jacqueline Ottmann] created a “circle of favor” around and inside her office, which attaches to the individuals whom she favors, and excludes those whom she does not favor from having influence,” said the 200-plus page report by Deloitte Legal, an affiliate of the university’s then-accounting firm Deloitte LLP.

Cambridge says academic’s ‘offensive’ race views were free speech

Cambridge University has dismissed scores of complaints against a philosophy fellow who was sacked by his college after a race row.

An internal investigation was opened last year after 58 students accused Dr Nathan Cofnas, an early career academic at Emmanuel College, of discriminating against black scholars.

He said in a blog post that under a meritocracy black people would “disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment” and that the number of black professors at Harvard would “approach zero”.

Manchester synagogue attack: one victim apparently shot dead by police

One of the victims killed at the Manchester synagogue attack appears to have been shot dead by armed police officers.

In a statement, the Greater Manchester police chief constable, Sir Stephen Watson, said the Home Office pathologist had provisionally determined that the man had died of a gunshot wound.

The suspect, Jihad al-Shamie, did not have a firearm and the only shots fired were by the police officers at the scene. It is believed that the victim was among those behind the synagogue door seeking to prevent the attacker from gaining entry.

HORTON: The Combatting Hate Act: A dangerous step toward symbolic censorship

2500% Spike In Google Search Results For ‘Trump’ And ‘Fascist’ Shows Dems’ Violence Incitement Problem

In the heated arena of American politics, words have always been weapons. But over the past year, the left’s rhetoric has escalated to a level that not only poisons discourse but also incites violence.

As we approach the end of President Donald Trump’s first year back in the White House, a year marred by political assassinations and rising extremism, it’s useful to understand just how much Democrats and their allies in media, academia, rent-a-mob, and activist circles have ramped up incendiary language.

President Trump Gives the Globalists Another Lesson – But More Are Needed

Donald Trump’s address to the UN once again has challenged the failing bloated institution, especially when its damage to our country and its Constitutional order by allowing globalist elites to chip away at our sovereignty in order to serve the “international community” of the “new world order” globalist elites. Much of our foreign policy errors and crises spring from the near century of the UN’s bad ideas and feckless idealism.

Wielding his signature straight talk, Trump delivered a much-needed home truth: “What is the purpose of the United Nations?” he asked, and quickly answered, “For the most part, at least for now, all they seem to do is write a really strongly worded letter and then never follow that letter up. It’s empty words, and empty words don’t solve wars.”

Carney calls Indonesia trade deal ‘game changing,’ but labour says it is a ‘step backwards’

The Carney government is celebrating a new trade deal with Indonesia, but labour voices are sounding the alarm over a weakening of worker protections compared to recent deals that Canada has inked.

In a press release, Prime Minister Mark Carney’s (Nepean, Ont.) office described the Canada-Indonesia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement as “game changing,” noting that it is the first bilateral agreement with a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Finalizing the deal was a pillar of Canada’s Indo-Pacific strategy, and part of a growing effort to diversify the country’s trading markets.
