Despite the nonstop propaganda in the media, the HarrisX poll reflects a very different political reality among Americans.

Saab intensifies pitch to sell Gripen jets to Canada, promising assortment of benefits
In the final-assembly hall for the Saab Gripen fighter jet in the Swedish city of Linkoping, the flags of Saab’s eight customer countries hang above the production line. A ninth spot holds a white banner reading, in red capital letters, RESERVED.
Asked whether it was for Canada, a Saab official smiled, shrugged and said nothing.
Behind the scenes, though, Saab is pulling out all the stops in order to put Canada’s name on the banner.
WTF?

HANNAFORD: ‘Elbows up’ diplomacy — Carney’s fake ‘trade war’ with Trump is alienating Canadian voters
So, the acrimonious end of trade negotiations was the electoral blessing for Mr. Carney that it was widely expected to be, right? Three by-election wins, each delivering more than 50% of the vote to the Liberals, including a surprise flip of a Conservative seat and the whole event giving the prime minister an absolute majority of one in the House of Commons.
WTF?
MORE KHALISTANIAN SIKH’S ‘TRAINING’ ILLEGALLY IN B.C.
This is all illegal and they are self snitching and bragging.
BUT…
…police in the country are worried about patriots the Dominion Society holding a meeting that will discuss the abuse of Canada by foreigners.

CNN: Trump Cut Funding That Would Not Have Stopped Nepal Flood. Here’s Why It’s Still His Faul
At least 1,114 people are dead and 4,000 people remain missing after a deadly flood and mudslide wreaked havoc in Nepal and parts of China.
The culprit? President Donald Trump — or at least that’s what CNN wants you to think.
School officials in Detroit will pay even more kids thousands of dollars to attend school
The Detroit public school system is almost entirely a non-white student body; US News puts the portion of white students at 2.4%, blacks at 80.8%, Hispanics at 14.5%, and the rest a mix. Naturally, based on that demographic make-up alone, you know the dysfunction is rampant. So, it should come as no surprise that Detroit public schools have a severe truancy problem—last year, a Michigan outlet reported that more than half of the public school kids “regularly miss class,” noting that “chronic absenteeism” is a persistent problem.

The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade was Only an Extension of Longstanding African Practices
Since I’m a cheerful unbeliever, like most people in Britain now, there’s no reason why I should be more than marginally interested in the C of E’s expensive guilt-trip for its historic links to the slave trade. Except that I have a fondness for ancient architecture and language that, as with Richard Dawkins, includes old churches, old liturgies and the music that goes with them. I contributed to the renovation of the bells of the fine Norman church in my village because I like the sound they make. Like the liturgy, it’s an important facet of British history and the church’s bells are actually much more prominent in village life than its church services. For several years, they have only happened when a peripatetic vicar can include us in his rounds every few weeks. As to the slavery issue, the villagers, who only enter the church in large numbers for services at Christmas, Easter and harvest-time, seem to feel much less guilty than the new Archbishop of Canterbury. I agree with them for a reason that hasn’t been mentioned in the recent beating of ecclesiastical breasts or even in newspapers and journals that are unhappy with the idea of compensating the descendants of slaves and the governments of the present-day countries where the slaves were captured.
The threat to German democracy does not come from the AfD
This Sunday’s state election in Saxony-Anhalt – a federal state of just over two million in eastern Germany – is of enormous significance. For the first time, the right-populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) could win an election so decisively that no alternative coalition could be formed to exclude it. Recent polls have consistently given the AfD more than 40 per cent of the vote – almost double that of the centre-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which is currently the biggest party in Saxony-Anhalt’s governing coalition. If these polls are accurate, not even a ‘firewall’ of anti-AfD parties governing together can keep it from winning political power.
Iran’s Covert Weapons Supply Chain Runs Through Canada and China—Fueled by Trade-Based Money Laundering: Analysis
OTTAWA – An Iranian immigrant living in Vancouver spent more than five years buying American missile-testing equipment and drone cameras for Iran’s Department of Defense, routing the goods and the payments through front companies in China. A Seattle court sentenced him to 42 months in prison in 2018. He was arrested not by Canadian police but by an American agent, at the border crossing in Blaine, Washington.
Arrogant sex attacker moans he ‘can’t be arrested’ after attempting to rape woman near train station
This is the moment a sex attacker moans to police that he ‘can’t be arrested’ after attempting to rape a woman near a train station in Canary Wharf.
Syed Imam, 30, told Scotland Yard officers ‘it can’t be me’ and falsely accused security staff of lying after they saved the vulnerable female in an underpass.
They had heroically stopped his attempted sex attack during the early hours of March 14 and detained him before police arrived, having seen him earlier acting suspiciously.
CBC’s refusal to distinguish between terrorism and war shows it can’t think critically
When the CBC recently backed away from an internal policy that instructed its journalists not to label 9/11 as a terrorist attack, it was a sensible reversal. But it occurred only after the broadcaster first dug in its taxpayer-financed heels.
The entire episode is worth exploring because the back-and-forth over the CBC memo spurred debates over the nature of terrorism, and the broadcaster’s failure to think about the reality of what the word actually means.
The wars in Ukraine and Iran are becoming dangerously enmeshed
Russia hasn’t yet killed large numbers of Europeans outside Ukraine, but it’s getting closer. The night of 4-5 August, an airport bus driver discovered an armed drone lying near the tarmac of the Leipzig-Halle airport, which is a central hub of Europe’s logistical support to Ukraine’s war effort. A cargo jet, meanwhile, may have struck a second drone shortly after takeoff, forcing an abrupt landing, and investigators found a third drone laden with military explosives nearby.
In 2024, incendiary devices hidden in parcels ignited in DHL cargo at the same airport. Had these detonated in the air, a major air catastrophe and large-scale civilian casualties would have ensued, probably resulting in a broader war.

WHISSELL: Copying Britain’s broken ‘social cohesion’ model is a suicide mission for Canadian freedom
I don’t want to live in the United Kingdom (UK).
I’m certain most Canadians would say the same thing if you asked them. So why is the Canadian government, and particularly Heritage Minister Marc Miller, taking cues on so-called “social cohesion” from the UK’s Labour Party? Isn’t the UK a royal mess?
