UK: Teenagers more patriotic than their parents
British 16 and 17-year-olds are more patriotic than the public overall, but are indifferent about the monarchy, according to a new poll.
The research for The Sunday Times found that 49 per cent say they are proud of their national identity, while 10 per cent say they are ashamed, a net positive score of 39. Across the population as a whole, 45 per cent are proud while 15 per cent are ashamed, a net score of 30.
There is a stark gender divide. Almost six in ten boys (57 per cent) say they are proud to be British, compared with almost four in ten girls (39 per cent).
WTF?

Canadians might be surprised at just how low U.S. tariffs on Canada’s exports really are
Economists estimate over 90% of Canadian goods are entering the U.S. tariff free, pushing down the overall rate
The average effective tariff that was being charged on Canadian goods going to the United States was possibly as low as 2.4 per cent to 2.5 per cent, two economic houses suggest.
New reports by Oxford Economics Ltd. and Capital Economics Ltd. suggest the average tariffs being charged on Canadian exports to the U.S. in June were as low as 2.4 per cent and 2.5 per cent, well off a previously forecasted rate from Capital of nine per cent for the month.
This can’t sit well with the Elbow People.
WTF?
I was a public school teacher in the hood for 11 years, and I know this type of kid.
The type that would smack the kid sitting in front of him, tell the teacher “IDGAF” when corrected, and ruin an entire year’s worth of learning for the entire class.
His special education… pic.twitter.com/xE2jKakQ4k

Essen Stabbing Highlights Knife Problem in Germany
Police in the western German city of Essen took a suspect into custody on Friday, September 5th, after a teacher was stabbed at a vocational college. Authorities confirmed they no longer considered the situation to be dangerous.
The attack took place at the school earlier in the day. The victim, a female educator, was rushed to hospital and underwent emergency surgery. No further details about her condition have been released.
WTF?

No wonder the Brampton pissants got away with gunplay.
Is the zero-emission vehicle mandate dead or merely sleeping?
Mark Carney’s announcement on Friday that implementation of the federal government’s zero-emission vehicle mandate will be delayed by at least a year can be read as another retreat on climate policy from the new prime minister.
It can also be read as a small victory for Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who had been calling on the government to abandon the policy.
That was certainly Poilievre’s own reading of events.
It’s not just Poilievre. The auto industry itself has been begging to have the ZEV cancelled entirely.
If a pause is simply a way to save face before full blown cancellation then so be it but Carney is a fanatic with many “friends” expecting to profit from the EV scam.
Chicago is a crime-ridden hellhole. It deserves a dose of Trump’s military medicine
“Chicago is the murder capital of the world,” Donald Trump declared on his Truth Social platform on Tuesday. Over the Labor Day holiday weekend alone, 58 people were shot in the city – eight of them fatally – in 37 separate incidents. Those grim statistics contribute to the total of 278 murders in the Windy City so far this year.
According to the Chicago’s mayor’s office, that should be counted as some sort of success. Yes, it’s a reduction on 2024’s even bloodier homicide figure, but it remains high enough to put the city on track to be one of the most dangerous in the United States for yet another year. Crime rates in other categories also remain high in Chicago. Motor vehicle theft rates, for example, are almost double what they were in 2019.
WARMINGTON: Doug Ford hints at pulling all Crown Royal parent company’s brands if plant closes
Saying a global company will “pay dearly” if it closes down a plant would be what they call ‘fighting words.’
When it comes to saving Ontario jobs from heading south of the border, Ontario Premier Doug Ford is in full battle mode – making it clear if “you hurt my people, I hurt you.”

Dearborn Heights’ Arabic Police Patch Snafu Is A Badge Of Surrender
Dearborn Heights, Michigan, Mayor Bill Bazzi announced Friday that the new Arabic police patch was not “official” — but didn’t rule out adopting such a badge of surrender in the future.
A Facebook post from the police department posted earlier this week read: “The Dearborn Heights Police Department [DHPD] is proud to share a new optional patch that our officers may wear as part of their uniform,” according to Fox News.
Please tell me this isn’t true. @fancypants_s https://t.co/NazkrqEEVM

Whither the U.K.? And its Anglophone offspring?
An Australian woman has been found guilty of vilifying male athletes competing in women’s sports … and now faces fines and penalties of up to $200,000 (Australian)!
According to a local court of New South Wales, Kirralie Smith “unlawfully vilified” two males playing soccer on women’s teams by stating that they have unfair physical advantages over the women and noting that opposing female players had suffered severe injuries due to this fact. Two-hundred-grand for stating an obvious truth.
What is lost when fewer men go to university?
Nobody panic – but men are less likely to attend university than their female counterparts. This is borne out by the data, as The Globe and Mail’s Joe Friesen reports – a growing trend that has taken root over generations.
Why? One factor may be a public school system that may be better suited to female students, something referred to by some as the “girlification” of education, a term I came across in my colleague Rachel Giese’s 2018 book Boys: What it Means to Become a Man. Are males as alienated – in the education system, but also in society at large – as the manosphere would have us believe? And is this contributing to the growing number of men skipping university?
Trump is bad, men should be emasculated, traditional male roles are evil, university is wonderful, Trump voters are awful and Trump is bad.
UK Cops Took Part in Muslim Grooming Gang Sex Assaults
Why were UK cops so eager to cover up Muslim grooming gang sex trafficking and assaults on young girls?
At least one father was threatened with arrest when he tried to save his daughter from the Muslim sex grooming gangs. When police officers entered a room where underage girls were drunk and being assaulted by Muslim men, they arrested the girls, not the men. The cover-up continued a long time. Why?
