Sweden, once regarded as one of Europe’s most peaceful nations, is now grappling with levels of gang violence unprecedented on the continent.
According to Euronews, Stockholm is one of the most dangerous cities in Europe: it has recorded 55 shootings up until August this year, resulting in nine deaths, while nationwide, there have been 113 incidents, leaving 33 people dead.
“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.

Is the U.S. experiencing a major hit to its tourism industry because international travelers are getting scared off over concerns about violent crime?
WITH remarkable honesty, a senior Roman Catholic cardinal has criticised the weak response of British authorities to Muslim rape gangs, citing the scandal as an example of how ‘woke’ activists throughout the West are instrumentalising Islam ‘as a tool to weaken Christian culture and tradition’.
On Monday afternoon, on Radio-Canada’s Ici RDI news channel, host Christian Latreille asked the network’s Washington, D.C.-based reporter, Élisa Serret, why the United States had not done more to distance itself from Israel. Her response led to Radio-Canada pulling her off the air and putting her on leave.
The uproar was more than justified. But it’s important to look at what she said, and what was wrong with it.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was already positively impacting the world with his indefatigable, peaceful, joyful, godly work to change hearts and minds, but in mere days, his assassination by a cowardly sniper’s bullet has already launched a tsunami of change he likely could not have imagined. The world is entering a different epoch now, and as with all shifts into a new age, there will be birthing pains.

Progressive star Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tore into Charlie Kirk during a speech on Capitol Hill after Congress voted to honor the late conservative activist.
The House passed a resolution to honor Kirk and his legacy on Friday. It received broad bipartisan support, passing 310 – 58, with Democratic leadership voting for it.

OTTAWA — Canadian automakers are warning they could be on the hook for billions of dollars in credit purchases if Canada’s electric vehicle mandate is enforced as written, and sales don’t ramp up.
Automakers already have deals lined up with companies like Tesla to buy credits to close expected gaps between sales and the targets set by the EV mandate. That could end up costing the industry more than $3 billion by 2030, Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers’ Association president Brian Kingston told the House of Commons international trade committee on Thursday.
Federal law enforcement agents used teargas and pepper balls to disperse a group of about 100 protesters, including two Democratic candidates for Congress, during a series of early morning clashes outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) building in Chicago on Friday.
