US reviewing Aukus submarine pact as part of ‘America First’ agenda

The US has launched a review of its multi-billion dollar submarine deal with the UK and Australia, saying the security pact must fit its “America First” agenda.

Under the trilateral pact, believed to be aimed at countering China, Australia is to get its first nuclear-powered subs from the US, before the allies create a new fleet by sharing cutting-edge tech.

Both Australia and the UK – which did its own review last year – have played down news of the US probe, saying it is natural for a new administration to reassess.

A Big Apple mom was filmed begging anti-ICE protesters to let her get to her job as they blocked traffic Tuesday — just for one to admit he didn’t care while sarcastically mocking her.

Canada, U.S. exchanging potential terms on economic and security deal

Canada and the United States are exchanging potential terms of agreement in closely held talks on an economic and security deal, The Globe and Mail has learned, but these do not represent the draft text of an actual pact.

These exchanges are an effort to spell out what both sides might be able to agree upon as Ottawa and Washington try to find enough common ground to end their damaging trade war, sources said.

The Globe is not naming the sources because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Liberals fear setback as Syria orders women to wear ‘burkinis’

Syria’s government has banned bikinis from public beaches in a set of new guidelines that limit women to wearing “burkinis” that cover the entire body.

The move revives concerns by liberals after the government, led by President Sharaa, sought to allay fears that it would impose a strict interpretation of Islam after toppling Bashar al-Assad in December. Sharaa, a former al-Qaeda commander, oversaw an Islamist government in his former bastion, Idlib, before leading his troops to the capital, Damascus.

Canadian Real Estate Development Plans Fell Sharply

Canadian policymakers are helicoptering money to stimulate building, but it doesn’t appear to be working. Statistics Canada (Stat Can) data shows the total value of building permits fell sharply in April, dropping to the lowest monthly volume in nearly a year. The annual decline was so large it was amongst the largest since 2020.

Half of London’s council houses occupied by people born overseas

Foreign-born heads of households in London cost Britain around £3.6 billion a year in discounted rent, Telegraph analysis suggests.

Nearly half of all social housing in the capital, 48 per cent, is occupied by foreign-born heads of household, data from the 2021 census shows. This is well over the national average of 19 per cent.

These households benefit from cheap rents which, when compared to private rent in London, average out at a discount of around £11,600 per year per household.

PINDER: Untrustworthy Ottawa makes independence look more attractive

Some of the responses to my most recent column were interpreted as support for independence, and indeed that is the position of the Western Standard. But my view is more than wordsmithing — independence, if necessary, but not necessarily independence.

A referendum is certainly in our future, and current support will surprise many in Central Canada. My view is that the breakup of Canada would be a colossal failure of all parties and entirely unnecessary. But sadly, it appears inevitable.

The West Is Finally Realizing The Ancient Truth That Open Borders Kill Nations

On June 1, Poland jolted the globalist movement, with Karol Nawrocki, a conservative historian and defender of national heritage, winning the presidential race in a narrow but decisive victory. His win is not an outlier but part of a broader European trend, in which voters across the continent have increasingly supported leaders who promise to defend their national identity and borders.

A decade after Germany threw open its borders to hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees, it is time to confront an obvious truth: The open-border experiment has failed. The promises of humanitarian uplift, cultural enrichment, and economic growth have instead birthed troubling social fragmentation, deepening economic insecurity, and surging waves of crime that are reshaping the continent — and world.

The Graves of Academe

The rot is deep.

True to his campaign word, President Trump continues to pursue the reformation of our failing institutions of “higher learning” –– the long decay of which has earned them the scare quotes. Harvard, with international prestige (especially in Communist China), and the country’s largest tax-free endowment, is currently Trump’s Admiral Byng, whom the British Navy hanged “to encourage the others,” as Voltaire quipped.

‘We lost touch’: Former NDP MP Charlie Angus calls election an ‘unmitigated disaster’ for the party

OTTAWA — Former NDP MP Charlie Angus says he does not intend to run for party leadership, but called the recent election “an unmitigated disaster” for New Democrats.

Angus, who did not seek reelection after first entering the House of Commons in 2004, appeared on Parliament Hill on Wednesday to express concerns he has heard from people about U.S. President Donald Trump’s upcoming trip to attend the G7 leaders’ summit in Alberta.

MSM addresses anarchy in LA: ‘Why burning EVs isn’t a good idea’

Elizabeth Weise at USA Today decided to comment on the anarchy that’s currently raging across Los Angeles, and here’s her two cents: if you’re going to light other people’s cars on fire, at least make sure it’s not an electric vehicle, because that would be bad for the environment and your fellow rioters. (On the contrary: perhaps we can encourage them to stand as close as possible to the flames and take big deep breaths?)

The fall of Pride is upon us

Gender ideology is the enemy of gay and lesbian rights.

The ghoulish, fleshy public spectacle that is Pride Month 2025 has little to say beyond exhibitionism and hedonism. It certainly has nothing to say about the UK Supreme Court ruling in April that ‘sex’ in the Equality Act 2010 refers to biological sex – a ruling that upheld the lesbian and gay right to single-sex associations. It has nothing to say about the Supreme Court justices observing that, had the judgment gone the other way, the protected characteristic of same-sex orientation would be rendered ‘meaningless’. It offers no praise or thanks to the lesbian interveners in the Supreme Court case for fighting for lesbian and gay rights. In fact, it is angry that they did so.

David Coletto: Four myths (and one truth) about the 2025 federal election

Elections are messy, emotional, and complex, and the 2025 Canadian federal election was no exception. In the weeks since the results came in, I’ve consumed a lot of commentary, analysis, and hot takes from journalists, pundits, campaign operatives, and academics. Some of it matches what I saw in the data. But a lot of it doesn’t.

Since early March, Abacus Data has conducted eight national surveys, interviewing over 20,000 Canadians. We also fielded a comprehensive post-election survey with 1,500 eligible voters in the days immediately following election day. These polls give us a uniquely detailed picture of what happened. And not just how people voted, but why.
