Spanish PM Blames Inequality and Misinformation for Ceuta Invasion

In an evasive address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez cast himself as the victim of international reactionary forces while claiming to be a champion of globalist socialism.

Taking to the U.N. podium on Wednesday afternoon — after refusing to meet with host President Donald Trump — Prime Minister Sánchez attempted to deflect blame for the major border control failure that was the mass invasion of illegal migrants from Morocco into Spain’s North African exclave city of Ceuta at the end of July.


He’s very proud of Deadbeat Spain.

Canadian government uses hundreds of Chinese-made drones, documents reveal

OTTAWA — The Canadian government is using at least 1,600 Chinese-made drones across more than a dozen public service departments with varying security protocols, documents tabled in Parliament show.

The RCMP is the biggest user by far with 1,027 of the drones, but says it has avoided using them in national security operations and will look elsewhere as it prepares to use hundreds of millions of dollars in upcoming funding to expand its fleet.

DNA database of UK dogs could help police collar criminals

DNA database of UK dogs could help police collar criminals

From tracking criminals to sniffing out drugs, dogs have long helped police crack cases. Now experts are hoping a database of canine DNA could offer vital leads.

While hair, saliva and other canine material may be found at crime scenes, or on individuals connected to incidents, scientists say they are often not fully investigated.

Yet such traces could provide valuable clues, from the identity of a canine perpetrator to evidence a dog’s owner was present at a crime scene.

Carney gov’t lied: It turns out Canada’s population isn’t shrinking after all

Carney gov’t lied: It turns out Canada’s population isn’t shrinking after all

After several years of spectacular population growth in Canada, the story of 2026 has been the country experiencing the first outright population decline since Confederation.

While Canada showed a small quarter-over-quarter population decline during the fall months of 2025, revised numbers now show the population has generally been growing – contrary to previous counts that pointed to consistent and sizeable decreases.

Carney’s call for alternatives to the U.S. dollar will get backs up in Washington

Carney’s call for alternatives to the U.S. dollar will get backs up in Washington

What does Prime Minister Mark Carney have against the U.S. dollar?

Plenty, it turns out. And his recent calls for an alternative to the U.S. greenback as a global reserve currency will not go over well in Washington, where the dollar’s dominance is seen as an indispensable tool in the conduct of U.S. economic and foreign policy.


Carney knows the war is lost so he’s riling up the Elbow people to avoid having to admit he’s been a failure.

Xi got Trump’s red carpet welcome – but not everything he wanted

Xi got Trump’s red carpet welcome – but not everything he wanted

President Xi Jinping’s summits with Donald Trump have one clear aim.

China believes the United States is trying to contain its rise as a superpower, and it wants Washington to stay out of its way – particularly when it comes to trade, technology and Taiwan.

On this visit, however, despite Trump rolling out the red carpet for him, the Chinese leader didn’t get everything he wanted.

Trump’s ‘militarized’ immigration enforcement should make Canada reconsider if the U.S. is a safe country, critics argue

Trump’s ‘militarized’ immigration enforcement should make Canada reconsider if the U.S. is a safe country, critics argue

The Trump administration has been accused of widespread human rights violations stemming from its “militarized immigration enforcement” in a new report that critics say Ottawa — and all Canadians — should heed.

Based on field research, Amnesty International USA documented incidents where officials with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection and other federal agencies were alleged to have breached the rights of migrants, bystanders and protesters.


We need Canadian ICE.

Germany: Merz government may use radical double secret “Bundeszwang” if AfD party controls Saxony-Anhalt

Germany: Merz government may use radical double secret “Bundeszwang” if AfD party controls Saxony-Anhalt

The anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) won the Saxony-Anhalt state election by a wide margin but fell short of an absolute majority. Nevertheless, the party may still come to power if it can garner enough support from BSW or peel off a few MPs from rival parties. This possibility has thrust an unused and radical clause of the German constitution, federal coercion or “Bundeszwang,” to the center of a fight over how far Berlin can go if the right-wing party takes power.

Migrant abandons child before scrambling onto dinghy – as record 781 cross Channel on small boats in a single day

Video footage captured the moment a man abandoned a child before scrambling onto a dinghy in France – as it was confirmed nearly 800 small-boat migrants reached Britain in a single day.

Harrowing and chaotic footage recorded off a beach in France shows the man clutching a toddler as he attempts to board the small boat.

In chest-deep water, and amid heavy swell, he then lets go of the child who is left floating in the sea for a few seconds, face up.

The slavery reparations scam has a dirty secret

The slavery reparations scam has a dirty secret

After graduating from university in the early 1980s, I decided to discover my Caribbean roots and apply for a job as a teacher in Jamaica. My school was nestled in the heart of rural Jamaica, and my students were fantastic.

I arrived during an interesting transition. Jamaican children up until that time had exclusively followed the British curriculum. The region had rightly decided to develop a syllabus that better reflected its own history, culture and local context.

But even after that, it was an education system that was firmly rooted in a British tradition, and Shakespeare was compulsory.

MACLEOD: Fortress America leaves Ottawa behind — Alberta must align directly with Washington

MACLEOD: Fortress America leaves Ottawa behind — Alberta must align directly with Washington

A much larger story is developing around Greenland, Venezuela, Panama, Cuba, and Canada than any one trade dispute or diplomatic quarrel. Taken all together, a definite pattern emerges.

The US appears increasingly determined to protect a North American strategic perimeter built around four interests: secure energy, secure critical minerals, secure transportation routes, and no hostile military or intelligence infrastructure within the continent. In Canada, China is touching on each one.
