New poll shows why Chairman Chow might not get re-elected

With just over a year until the Toronto municipal election, a solid majority of residents think it’s time for a new mayor, according to a public opinion survey that could signal trouble for incumbent Olivia Chow.

The poll of Torontonians conducted by Ipsos for the Star found 58 per cent want change in the city’s highest office, and 42 per cent believe Chow is doing well enough to deserve re-election.

There’s significant anxiety among residents about the direction of the city — six in 10 of poll respondents said Toronto’s best days are behind it — “and as a result of that, people look to what they can do in order to change that situation,” said Darrell Bricker, Ipsos global CEO of public affairs. “One of the things that they can do is elect a new mayor.”

Chow is not Mayor she barely qualifies as a figurehead. The city is run by the usual left wing lunatics and their toxic allies.

Jimmy Kimmel hosted just one right-leaning guest in past four years — and it came with a condition

An “incredibly pissed” Jimmy Kimmel failed to make a deal with his Disney bosses Thursday to return to the air — still balking at their push for him to publicly apologize for his Charlie Kirk remarks, sources say.

The furious ABC late-show host went to his lawyer’s office in Los Angeles that afternoon for a video meeting with Disney TV honcho Dana Walden and ABC late-night head Rob Mills to try to figure out a path forward for his show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” sources told The Post.

WARMINGTON: Million People March to fight sex education in schools expecting massive turnout

The overall objective of the Million People March 4 Children on Saturday is to “protect parents’ rights” and “our children from indoctrination.”

But while the expected massive march is designed to fight governments from teaching children in schools an alternative sex curriculum, participants also plan to call out Toronto’s decision to pay for municipal staff gender operations – the subject of my Friday column.

Not seeing anything on Twitter that is current, lots from years past.

Trump adds $100,000 fee for skilled worker visa applicants

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that will add a $100,000 (£74,000) annual fee for applicants to the H-1B visa programme for skilled foreign workers.

Trump’s order mentions “abuse” of the programme and will restrict entry unless payment is made.

Critics have long argued that H-1Bs undercut the American workforce, while supporters – including billionaire Elon Musk – argue it allows the US to attract top talent from around the world.

Great work by President Trump to protect American citizens from the much abused H-1B program but in Canada the Corporate Grifters rule ...

‘Canada First’ is really an ‘Immigrants Second’ movement

There was a “Canada First Rally” recently in Toronto, to “Stop mass immigration. Start mass deportations” according to the social media poster for the event. But here’s the catch: our immigration system already runs on a Canada First principle. Who is admitted, who is rejected, who is left in limbo is always structured around what Canada needs, not what immigrants want.

So maybe it’s time we call it what it is: an “Immigrants Second” movement.

Equity Studies huh?. Well you can’t get more objective, more scientifically reliable with that informing your perspective.

Afghan asylum seekers ‘go home on holiday’

Afghans who have been relocated to Britain to protect them from the Taliban have returned to their home country on holiday, it has been claimed.

The Government has spent billions on a scheme to protect the asylum seekers from persecution in their home country after they supported British troops deployed there.

The alleged excursions back to Afghanistan have led to claims that the threat they face has been exaggerated.

Same BS every time everywhere.

NATO deterrence mission in Latvia drains the Canadian Army’s fleet of vehicles

The Canadian Army does not have enough vehicles to support both the brigade in Latvia and a similar-sized training exercise in Canada, a House of Commons committee was told on Thursday.

Maj.-Gen. Robert Ritchie, the director of the strategic joint staff (the military’s nerve centre), told the defence committee that over 400 vehicles of all types have been deployed for the NATO deterrence mission in the Baltic nation.

I bet they all got damaged at Pride parades.

When ‘saving lives’ with bike lanes means costing them

“Bike lanes save lives.” That’s the slogan repeated endlessly by the cycling lobby, shouted as if it’s beyond question. But slogans don’t save lives — emergency response times do.

And according to data obtained through a Freedom of Information request by Balance on Bloor, the bike lanes on Bloor Street West are causing delays of up to two and a half minutes for ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars. In the world of emergency medicine, that delay is a death sentence.
