WASHINGTON, D.C. — Many Canadian exporters who have traded duty-free under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement are facing the threat of 50 per cent duties on their goods under Section 338 tariffs, which Washington is set to impose on hundreds of products starting August 19.
These firms may also need to increase their customs-bond coverage, which guarantees payment of duties and fees if an importer defaults, as higher tariffs increase the U.S. government’s exposure.
Here we go again.
Islamist Michigan candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s full name has a Mohammed in there. It’s Abdulrahman Mohamed El Sayed. Now unlike Barack Hussein Obama, whose name was a bit hard to place for Americans without the ‘Hussein’, there’s not a lot of ambiguity about it.
Abdul El-Sayed isn’t exactly Jack Smith or Bob Jones.
You can see why the Church of England thought ‘Project Spire’ would be a good name for its multi-million-pound ‘reparations’ scheme. Yet if Archbishop of Canterbury Sarah Mullally or her predecessor Justin Welby had read William Golding’s The Spire, this might have given them reason to reconsider.
While only 1% of the Canadian population lives on Indian reserves, that tiny population is constantly in the news. From court cases that pit Aboriginal title against basic homeownership, to Indian chiefs threatening to block development — or even the upcoming Alberta independence referendum — their increasingly aggressive demands fill our courtrooms and newspapers.

An American transgender refugee is back in the United States after spending a period inside a dangerous Islamic asylum center in the Netherlands, but she’s still not happy with the US.
Jane-Michelle Arc, 48, fled to Ter Apel, the Netherlands’ largest refugee camp, after Trump was re-elected in 2024 – saying that she feared for her safety as a trans woman living in America.
She claimed asylum in the European country – and while she endured tough conditions in the sqaulid camp where stabbings and attacks are commonplace, she came to the realization that she actually wanted to return to her native California.
The proposed expansion of the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport was a test case for Prime Minister Mark Carney – and a fairly straightforward one, too.
Here was an infrastructure project that did not involve multiple jurisdictions, competing provincial interests, or Indigenous land claims (though in late May, the Haudenosaunee Development Institute asked to be formally consulted on the plans). The federal government didn’t even need to initiate development plans: This was Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s baby. All Ottawa needed to do, really, was stand back and let it happen.
Swedish authorities have charged a 65-year-old pensioner on disability benefits from Växjö with “agitation against a population group” after he posted a critical image of Islam in a Facebook comments section.
Lars-Ivar Carlsén shared the image under a post by the Palestine Group in Malmö on December 11 last year. The text read; Islam is not a religion. It is a death cult for murderers, rapists, incest, and pedophiles.
OTTAWA — Back in February this year, over 11 days at a military base in Kingston, Ont., the Canadian Army was at war.
At least, it pretended it was.
The “division-level war game” that played out that month simulated — on computer screens, whiteboards, and tabletop battle maps — what it would be like to fight a “high-intensity conflict against a peer adversary,” the military explained in a subsequent statement.
he Democratic Socialists of America have released a manifesto. It reeks of deeply dysfunctional infantilism.
Within the scope of that program, Abdul El-Sayed just won—narrowly (but a win is a win)—the right to run for the U.S. Senate as a DSA fellow traveler. And Donavan McKinney unseated incumbent Rep. Shri Thanedar in Michigan’s 13th District (Detroit), winning 51.9 percent–48.1 percent in a solidly blue seat.
With their bright red tunics, dark blue breeches and beige Stetsons, the officers of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police offer a globally recognised symbol of Canada.
The Mounties, as they are colloquially known, have been featured across popular culture for decades, from Hollywood films to the Simpsons.
But the RCMP is now facing an increasingly uncertain future amid questions about its core role and because of a string of scandals that range from systemic racism to sexual harassment and public safety failures.

The ideologically-driven stupidity of leftists has been remarked many times, whether on declaring that eunuchs in dresses are real women and can get pregnant, getting the Covid vaccines two, three, four times and still becoming infected with Covid, or the blue-haired Karens with their cow-like rings in their noses. This stupidity is due to fanaticism, and fanaticism tends to halve a person’s IQ.

This is not a piece about culture war theatre. It’s only about who gets hired to do publicly funded research in this country, and if your instinct is to write that off as coded hostility to diversity, you’re not engaging with the argument, you’re dodging it and you might as well move on because this is going to be a series.
(Aug. 9, 2026 / JNS) “Withdrawal must move in lockstep with decommissioning,” Board of Peace High Representative Nikolay Mladenov stated on July 31, referring to the release of the body’s 15-point Roadmap for Gaza and, specifically, its proposed timetable for an Israeli pullback from the Strip alongside Hamas’s disarmament.
With those words, Mladenov underscored the widening gap between Jerusalem and the international community over how to proceed with ending the war sparked by the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, massacre. Mladenov acknowledged that “it took months of very difficult negotiations to get here. There were several points when I did not believe we would make it.”
