Violent Channel-smuggling gang’s French and UK network exposed

A BBC investigation has exposed the French and UK operations of a powerful and violent smuggling gang taking people across the English Channel in small boats.

A reporter, posing as a migrant wanting to cross, helped us gain unprecedented access to the smugglers’ notorious forest hideout in northern France – an area plagued by armed battles between rival gangs.

Secret filming at a major UK railway station also captured associates of the gang collecting cash payments to secure migrant places on illegal Channel crossings.

Canadians with an X gender marker will now have to select male or female on Nexus travel cards after Trump order

Canadians renewing their Nexus travel cards or applying for new ones to make it easier to cross the border to the U.S. must now say if they are male or female, even if they are transgender or non-binary.

The change follows U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive order that says the American government will now only recognize the male and female sex. U.S. passports and other identity documents are no longer issued with an X gender marker.

Good idea from the Trump admin, pity our PM consorts with crossdressers.

Titan submersible disaster was ‘preventable’ tragedy, Coast Guard says

The implosion of a submersible that killed all five aboard trying to visit the wreckage of the Titanic was “preventable” if not for the company’s “failure to follow established engineering protocols,” the U.S. Coast Guard said Tuesday in a report on the 2023 incident.

The Titan submersible disaster brought international attention to the world of deep-sea tourism, which experts say lacks adequate oversight to ensure safety. The 335-page report follows the Coast Guard’s investigative hearing that lasted two weeks in September.

Carney’s Move to Strip Religious Charities Undermines Canada’s Foundations, Liberal Elder Warns

VANCOUVER — I am a former partner of a national accounting firm and a registered Liberal who has served seven leaders of the Liberal Party, including four prime ministers. I am also a Christian actively involved in not-for-profit entities that “advance religion.”

I strongly oppose the new direction of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government, as outlined in the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance report, Pre-Budget Consultations in Advance of the 2025 Budget, which recommends removing “advancement of religion” as a recognized charitable purpose.

Carney’s eyes are cold and dead.

What does Donald Trump want from Canada? We are about to find out

Where do things stand for Canada after the United States imposed a new, higher tariff last Thursday evening?

In the short run, not much has changed. In the long run, a lot may yet change.

Since the signing of the landmark Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement in 1988, the relationship has been about ever-lower trade barriers and ever-easier movement of goods and services across the border. It was part of a global trend. Under President Donald Trump, the U.S. is reversing course, hard and fast.
