There was a time, not long ago, when Canada handled disagreements with steel in its spine and clarity in its speech, when travel advisories were reserved for unstable regimes, war zones, or viral outbreaks. Now? Canadians are being told that the United States, their neighbor, ally, and trading partner, might detain them for crossing the border with a suitcase and a hotel reservation.

Canadians know that we need less America in our lives. In a recent poll for CNN, ninety one per cent of Canadians agreed that they wanted “to reduce their reliance on the U.S. as a trading partner.” In polling terms, that’s as close as you’ll ever find to unanimity. Later this month, we are promised, insofar as promises mean anything in the second Trump administration, a restored trade and security arrangement with the United States. But any such arrangement will, inevitably, be unstable and temporary. American chaos is deepening, and the questions that face us are bigger than tariffs and trade agreements: What does it mean to reset, not just away from the current American government, but away from America altogether, away from the American system?
And now, an uplifting message of peace and unity from a liberal. ️

Scores of Chinese have stopped getting married or having kids.
Data released by China’s Ministry of Education last month revealed an astonishing reality: In the past two years alone, 36,000 preschools across China have shuttered their doors.
This is not due to a decline in the popularity of preschool or consolidation on the part of the Chinese government. Rather, these preschools have closed simply because not enough children to attend them were born.
The school has reinstated the records of female swimmers who lost their titles to trans-identified male swimmer Lia Thomas.
On Tuesday, the University of Pennsylvania reached an agreement with the Trump administration’s Department of Education regarding trans-identified male swimmer Lia Thomas’s participation on the women’s swim team. Following a federal investigation, the university has agreed to revise records set by Thomas and to restore titles and accolades to the female athletes he displaced. UPenn will also issue personal apologies to the affected swimmers, bar male athletes from competing in women’s sports, and adopt biology-based definitions of “male” and “female” under Title IX.
This correction was inevitable. Reality, in the end, reasserts itself. But the mainstream press hasn’t budged. Instead, they continue to misinform their readers, deploying headlines designed to obscure plain facts.
With the federal government announcing new plans to triple Canadian defence spending, the military itself is saying the organization is so overwhelmed and dysfunctional that they won’t be able to meet even their current duties for at least another seven years.
According to a recent report, the Trump administration is floating the idea of having four Arab states administer the Gaza Strip as part of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group Hamas. On June 26, the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom reported:
“Gaza hostilities will conclude within two weeks, ending conditions will encompass four Arab nations (including Egypt and the United Arab Emirates) to administer the Gaza Strip, replacing the murderous Hamas terrorist organization.”
Although the newspaper did not name the two other Arab countries that would take part in administering the Gaza Strip, there is speculation in the Arab world that one of them is Qatar, which has expressed readiness to help rebuild Gaza after the Hamas-Israel war ends.
Amid a protracted trade war, Canadian exports to the United States are at one of the lowest proportions on record, while exports to other countries have reached a record high, according to the latest numbers from Statistics Canada.
Data show Canadian exports to the U.S. have decreased for the fourth consecutive month, seeing a 0.9 per cent drop in May. The average share of total Canadian exports to the U.S. is also down, from 75.9 per cent last year, to 68.3 per cent in May, a near-record low.
Imports from the U.S. have also been on the decrease for the third consecutive month.
On June 25, a 33-year-old Marxist Muslim named Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic mayoral primary in New York City. Over the following week, broadcast networks ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS ran nearly an hour of coverage about the self-described democratic socialist, but spent less than two minutes on his numerous radical positions and scandals.

On July 2, 2025, Canada-based pro-Al-Qaeda (AQ) cleric Tariq Abdelhaleem published a post on his Telegram channel attacking Hamas for refusing to accept a ceasefire deal. He called on the organization to exit the strip before the “complete destruction” of the Palestinians.[1]
Abdelhaleem’s post comes following a new American ceasefire proposal, which Hamas is currently considering.
I forgot this guy was still around! Bet he’s a Big LPC supporter.
They’re flushing millions down the toilets.
The city dumped a whopping $5 million to install five new stainless steel toilets at public parks — even though the futuristic pods sell at a relatively cheap retail value of about $185,000.
The “Portland Loos” cost $1 million each with “additional site specific costs” that included related plumbing, electrical and pavement work that went along with the installation, officials said — but some Big Apple residents said the price tag is totally loo-dicrous.
No sooner had Canada committed to immediately meeting NATO’s long-standing target of spending 2 per cent of GDP on defence – an increase of $9.3-billion annually – than the goalposts shifted. Dramatically.
At last week’s NATO meetings, a new benchmark emerged: 5 per cent of GDP. While 1.5 per cent of that could include spending on cybersecurity, infrastructure and defence-related technology, the overall target is a staggering $50-billion increase.
The conversation about how divided we are here in the United States of America is a never ending one now. Twenty or thirty years ago, talk about “two Americas” was about economic status. Now it is about the great Red/Blue divide. It’s a bit much when people blather on about us being more divided than ever before, but that’s what you get when public schools stop teaching real American history.
Trustees with Toronto’s public school board have been given the do’s and the don’ts.
They can forward emails from constituents to the director of education and redirect calls to the board’s main line.
They cannot issue updates to their community; access administrative offices; use their board email account to communicate with constituents; or participate in any events as trustees, which includes engaging with school staff and parent councils.
That’s likely still too much for the racist commie groomers at the TDSB.
