Is An Energy Corridor the New National Dream or an Ottawa Mirage?
“Nationalism was a strange new word. Patriotism was derivative, racial cleavage was deep, culture was regional, provincial animosities savage, and the idea of unity ephemeral”. The writer goes on to say, “There are few Canadians yet who care deeply about it; most provincial politicians indeed, are ‘either indifferent or hostile’” to the project.
The gloves are off between Zelensky and mayor Klitschko
In one corner is Vitali Klitschko, the towering mayor of Kyiv who, when he was a world champion heavyweight boxer, was renowned for his knockout power. In the other is President Zelensky, the diminutive president who has demonstrated remarkable staying power during three years of war with President Putin.
The two men are perhaps Ukraine’s most internationally recognised politicians. But they are now effectively at war after a simmering grudge between them became public. Zelensky has forced Klitschko, who is said to harbour presidential ambitions despite an aborted run in 2014, into a political clinch from which his escape looks improbable. The president has used martial law to appoint a rival military administration in the capital to mirror the mayor’s responsibilities.

Hairy asylum seeker with deep voice is a child, tribunal rules
A hairy Sudanese asylum seeker with a deep voice is a child, an immigration tribunal has ruled.
The court said that having physical attributes such as hairy legs and arms was not a “useful indicator” of age, dismissing assessments by the Home Office and a council that the asylum seeker was in his mid-20s. It backed his claim that he was 16 years old.
The Home Office had claimed his physical appearance “very strongly suggested” that he was “significantly over 18” and stated that he was likely to be around 24.

Targeting Military Installations, IP Theft: A Look at Criminal Cases Involving Chinese Students
The Trump administration’s pledge that it will begin to “aggressively” revoke visas of Chinese students was made after years of concern over the Chinese regime’s efforts to infiltrate U.S. academia.

It will also revise visa criteria and heighten scrutiny for future visa applications.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce on Thursday said the government is enhancing scrutiny of all Chinese visa holders in the United States. She declined to detail specific criteria the department will use in assessing applications.
