Undercover officers pose as joggers to stop catcalling

Coming this fall … Undercover Catcall Cops

Undercover police officers have posed as joggers in a bid to catch cat-callers.

Surrey Police sent two undercover officers out jogging at rush hour, to show the level of catcalling female joggers received.

“These behaviours may not be criminal offences in themselves, but they need to be addressed,” a Surrey Police spokesman said about the patrols.

REPORT: Female UK police officers are going undercover by dressing in tight clothes to elicit catcalls from men so they can then arrest them, according to the Telegraph.

CHARLEBOIS: How federal policy is canning Canadian choice

Since June, Bick’s pickles have been disappearing from some Canadian grocery shelves, caught in the crossfire of a tariff dispute that is exposing deep flaws in Ottawa’s trade strategy. The story of Bick’s is a telling case study in how well-intentioned policies can backfire, punishing consumers and domestic suppliers alike.

CARPAY: Alberta can leave Canada, without court approval

Alberta’s Chief Electoral Officer, Gordon McClure, has received a proposed constitutional referendum question: “Do you agree that the Province of Alberta shall become a sovereign country and cease to be a province in Canada?”

Gordon McClure has gone to court to ask a judge’s opinion on whether a referendum on Alberta separation would violate Canada’s constitution.

There Is No Way To Moderate Transgenderism. It Must Be Destroyed

Transgenderism is retreating.

In a recent piece in The New York Times, Kinnon R. MacKinnon —“an assistant professor who studies transgender care at York University in Toronto” and identifies as a “trans man”— grudgingly admits that the critics were right and that gender ideology, and especially the medical transition of children, was built on lies.

How crime shattered DC: The US capital needed an intervention

As a part of the White House press pool, I crammed into a frigid van on Saturday morning, toward the back of President Trump’s motorcade en route to his Virginia golf course. We passed a grimy tent encampment on our way out of the city, and I wondered to myself whether Trump was peering out the window.

My question seemed to be answered the following day. On Truth Social, the president posted pictures likely taken from the motorcade that morning or the next, as he returned for another round of golf. Alongside images of roadside tents and trash, Trump wrote, “We’re having a News Conference tomorrow in the White House. I’m going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before.” Sure enough, at a marathon briefing on Monday morning, Trump announced that he was placing the DC police force under federal control and deploying the National Guard to secure streets long blighted by disorder — and bloodied by the fourth highest homicide rate in the nation.

At first, I hardly noticed the encampment. My parents dropped me off for college at Foggy Bottom 14 years ago this month, and as far as I can remember, tents have dotted that part of the city ever since. But rumours were swirling that a federal takeover of DC was imminent, so I spent the ride thinking back on the last decade.

Canada wildfire season already second worst on record as experts warn of ‘new reality’

With hundreds of wildfires burning out of control, Canada’s 2025 fire season is already the second-worst on record, as scientists report climate change is prolonging and exacerbating the burning, leading to more destruction, evacuations and smoke-filled skies.

More than 470 fires across the country are currently classified as “out of control”, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC).

7,318,421 hectares of land in Canada have burned due to wildfires this year – close to 78% more than the five-year average of 4,114,516 hectares, according to the CIFFC’s latest data.

It used to be an ice age was the new normal.

Was there another option to dropping atomic bombs on Japan 80 years ago?

With the passing last week of the 80th anniversary of the U.S. dropping atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima (on August 6, 1945) and Nagasaki (three days later), familiar questions once again arise about our having done so. These include whether it was absolutely necessary in order to bring an end to the war, and whether or not there was any alternative to the two bomb attacks?

Addressing the second question first, an alternative option had been discussed. It involved providing the Japanese with a demonstration by dropping an atomic bomb on an uninhabited island. But such a demonstration involved risks.

Ford Decides to Commit EV Suicide

Shouldn’t the shareholders intervene at some point?

Last time I checked in, Ford had lost billions making electric ‘cars’ that no one wants.

“Ford reported that it’s going to lose $3 billion on electric cars in 2023. Unlike most automakers, Ford reports its electric vehicle numbers separately, but experts estimate that most car companies are losing similar amounts on the dead end business.”

The critics of Nova Scotia’s ban on accessing the woods don’t understand our culture

I realized how dry the woods are in Nova Scotia when I stopped my car by the side of the road the other day and briefly stood on the gravel shoulder. The woods smelled dry, almost smoky, like they wanted to be on fire.

It’s not how this typically soggy peninsula normally smells. But we have had less than half the normal seasonal amount of rain this summer. The last substantial rain fell on June 7. Wells are drying up. The whole province is in a state of extreme fire risk.

So when Premier Tim Houston announced on Tuesday that he was ordering the woods closed, I was glad.

Majority of Brits support stripping Prince Andrew of his remaining royal titles – amid speculation future King William will look to cut him out

Two thirds of Britons support stripping Prince Andrew of his remaining royal titles, new research has shown.

According to YouGov polling, 67 per cent of the population would back a move by the Royal Family to remove any remaining vestiges of his former position.

The most well known title held by the late Queen’s second son is the Duke of York, a title given to him on his wedding day to Sarah Ferguson in 1986.

Crime Pays in Modern Britain

In the UK today, it’s sometimes safer to be the criminal than the victim of crime.

Take the perplexing case of Rob Davies. In Wrexham, north Wales, the frustrated shopkeeper was told off by police for complaining about the scourge of thieves in the area. Davies, who runs a vintage clothing store, had resorted to displaying a sign in the shop window that read: “Due to scumbags shoplifting, please ask for assistance to open cabinets.” He explained to the Telegraph that, due to an increasing number of thefts, he was forced to lock away some of his goods. “Over the past year,” he said, “I have caught five people shoplifting. The first one I called the police and they handed the shirt back to me and let him go. Now I don’t bother reporting them and I have had to put locks on my cabinets.”

BERNARDO: Liberal firearms policy: Punish the lawful, ignore the criminal

When Ottawa spends billions attacking the people who already obey the law, you have to wonder if public safety was ever their goal.

From Victoria, British Columbia, to St. John’s, Newfoundland, law-abiding Possession and Acquisition Licence (PAL) holders watch Ottawa waste more resources, strip more rights from lawful Canadians, and protect more violent criminals from prosecution and incarceration while calling it, in true Orwellian fashion, “public safety.”

Doug Ford vows to ‘legislate’ end to medical testing on dogs after Ontario hospital caught using beagles

Premier Doug Ford is vowing to “legislate” an end to medical tests on dogs after St. Joseph’s hospital in London was caught using beagles for heart attack research.

“I’ve now directed our team to start hunting down anyone else doing research on dogs or cats since it’s unacceptable,” Ford told reporters Tuesday in Windsor.

“I think we just legislate and ban it — there’s no reason we need to be using poor little dogs or cats or anything like that. It’s just unacceptable, it’s cruel, it’s inhumane,” he said.

My high school’s grade 13 biology class dissected cats.

Their frozen bodies were stored in open garbage cans in the courtyard with no effort to conceal them.

Ilhan Omar’s Father Served a Communist-Islamist Regime Before Becoming a Refugee in Minnesota

Socialist Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) called her father “an educator.” According to the man’s obituary, he was a distinguished colonel in the army of communist Somalia, whom the United Nations described as having “one of the worst human rights records in Africa.”

There is no evidence of her father’s direct complicity in any atrocities, but Omar has not confronted the legacy of the regime to which her father was loyal.

Child Abuse: Christians singled out as “Oppressors” by TDSB Human Rights Dept.

‘No more TikTok teaching’: Jewish advocacy group calls for Ontario classrooms to be free of identity politics

A Jewish advocacy group released a report on Monday with recommendations to depoliticize Ontario classrooms. It called on the ministry of education to build a curriculum based on achievement, rather than identity.

… The same policies that have made Jewish students feel unsafe have also created inhospitable environments for Hindu, Christian and Asian students, she said, adding that the human rights department at the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) trains staff on “who qualifies as an oppressor,” singling out Christians.

Here is the JEFA web site and full report.

In pdf format – End the Crisis in Education final

I hope parents sue the TDSB for child abuse.

But I have to ask why Christian churches have never raised this issue.

This blog spent a lot of energy covering TDSB antics and was the 1st to reveal the anti-white racism embedded in TDSB teaching.
