The term “gun death” is fairly problematic in a lot of ways. First, guns aren’t dying, so there’s that.
Moreover, it treats all deaths resulting from a gunshot as somehow equal. We don’t see numbers for everyone who dies as the result of an edged implement like a knife or razorblade, for example. We don’t see “gravity deaths” that include people who jump off of a bridge and those tossed out of a 14th story window.
It’s just the guns.
Both the UK and Canada have now codified Orwellian “equity” policies that dismantle the principle of equal justice under the law. These policies ensure that racial, cultural, and religious minorities receive preferential treatment in sentencing—while White males are explicitly excluded from such leniency.

Air Canada is working to correct an in-flight map which replaced the State of Israel with “Palestinian territories.”
The error was first noticed by a passenger on a recent flight from Vancouver to Montreal.

The German Social Democratic party (SPD) has published its working paper on immigration. It calls for half a million more migrants every year, no deportation of illegal immigrants unless they are extremely violent, voting rights for foreigners, automatic citizenship after 25 years, and a new ministry for immigration and integration.
You would think the left-wing party was in no position to make demands. After all, the SPD led the coalition government which lost the last election, when it failed to be one of the top two parties for the first time since the 19th century. But the centre-right Christian Democratic Union, which won the most votes in the election, has ruled out dealing with Alternative for Germany (AfD), which came second. That has left them with only one potential coalition partner to form a government: the SPD.
For noncitizens, residing in the United States is a coveted privilege, not a right. Progressives, however, have lost sight of this principle of immigration law—at least as applied to a zealous supporter of Hamas.
It's not widely known, but over HALF of Columba University's enrollment is now foreign students. Some of them are people like Mahmoud Khalil, who spent all his time agitating in support of Hamas terrorists.
But if you dig deeper, the true story is even more appalling: Columbia… pic.twitter.com/gQQ6qi5x4u

Canada has walked itself into an unnecessary trade war with the United States’ biggest geopolitical rival, China.
The consequences are clear: new retaliatory tariffs from China are directly targeting our farmers, affecting over $3-billion worth of agrifood commodities and products.
These measures are a direct response to Canada’s decision to impose a 100 per cent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles in October, a move designed to align with U.S. trade policy and shield the North American auto sector from low-cost competition.

LILLEY: City Council adding unelected member based on race usurps democracy
The City of Toronto is looking to add a new councillor based entirely on race, and they may not even be elected.
An item added to the council agenda on Thursday morning looks to ask for “the creation of an Indigenous member of council.”
A Muslim charity with links to Hamas was awarded more than $7.2 million in taxpayer cash, which has now disappeared, according to a watchdog group.
An “immediate investigation” needs to be launched into The Council on American-Muslim Relations’ (CAIR) California chapter’s use of funds, according to the watchdog, who sent a complaint to the Department of Justice Thursday.
According to the Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN), a California-based, non-partisan advocacy group, the money was given to the chapter to help re-settle impoverished immigrants in California between 2022 and 2024.
New Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney shut down President Trump’s talk of Canada potentially becoming the U.S.’s 51st state, characterizing it as “crazy” and vowing the North American neighbor will remain independent.
Carney, a former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor who was sworn in as Canada’s leader on Friday, succeeding his predecessor Justin Trudeau, said Canada and the U.S. are “fundamentally different” nations and that Ottawa “expects respect from America and Trump.”
“We will never in any way, shape or form be a part of the U.S. America is not Canada,” Carney said.
A far-right group that claimed credit for the arrest of a Palestinian activist and permanent US resident who the Trump administration is seeking to deport claims it has submitted “thousands of names” for similar treatment.
Betar US is one of a number of rightwing, pro-Israel groups that are supporting the administration’s efforts to deport international students involved in university pro-Palestinian protests, an effort that escalated this week with the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, an activist who recently completed his graduate studies at Columbia University.
This week, Donald Trump said Khalil’s arrest was just “the first of many to come”. Betar US quickly claimed credit on social media for providing Khalil’s name to the government.
This kind of thing is only OK when the left does it.
Trusting the Liberals on carbon taxes is like Charlie Brown trusting Lucy is going to hold the football for him.
How many times are Canadians going to fall for the same gag worthy of a comic strip but not of the government of Canada?
If I could get all 341 million or so Americans to stand together in a giant circle, I’d tell everyone to turn to the right, pat the person in front of them on the back, and say, “Well done. Bravo. Good job, America.” Because this is the week you humiliated both Michelle Obama and MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell.
