What is the Asylum System For?

Asylum is a big issue in UK politics. In 2023, something like 84,000 asylum-seekers (not including Ukrainian refugees and family reunions, who took the number to just over 140,000) came to the country. After appeals, it can be expected that roughly 60% of these people will be granted the outcome they seek (for the last 10 years this has been the average rate), which is obviously to be granted leave to remain. As of June 2024 there were 224,742 cases ‘in the system’, meaning people who were waiting for a decision and those who were waiting for the outcome of an appeal having been initially refused asylum, alongside the 41,200 people in the country who had come to claim asylum, been refused and exhausted all avenues of appeal, but were still here for some reason or other.

Anxious and angry, Canadians are souring on the U.S. over Trump’s tariffs, survey finds

Dawn O’Leary misses Diet Coke the most. Her favourite pop is among the list of American goods and services she gave up even before U.S. President Donald Trump flip-flopped on his tariff threat last week. The 71-year-old has sold her U.S. stocks and dumped Netflix. She doesn’t only buy Canadian – she also refuses to purchase any product that’s made in Canada for a U.S. company.

“Unfortunately, I have to do the research for that on Google,” says Ms. O’Leary, the owner of Dragonluck Kennels in Stittsville, Ont., on feeling forced to use the American search engine. “I am not happy about that.”

Feds say Canadians ‘greatly misrepresent’ Islamic war term ‘jihad’

The Government of Canada in efforts to “combat Islamophobia” is attempting to convince Canadians the term “jihad” doesn’t mean “war against non-Muslims.”

It’s controversial contents are published in a lengthy document entitled The Canadian Guide to Understanding and Combatting Islamophobia: For a more inclusive Canada.

One of the fundamental goals of Islam is to obliterate all non-Muslims, especially Jews, and permanently take over Israeli territory.

Canada Has a New Globalist Prime Minister (For Now)

White House Doesn’t Budge: We’re Deporting Terrorist Sympathizers

Speaking to reporters at the White House Tuesday, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt repeatedly explained the Trump administration will not tolerate visa or Green Card holders terrorizing Americans on college campuses.

“This administration is not going to tolerate individuals having the privilege of studying in our country and then siding with pro-terrorist organizations that have killed Americans,” Leavitt said. “We have a zero tolerance policy for siding with terrorists. Period.”

Chrystia Freeland’s low Liberal support doesn’t tell the whole story

There was no real expectation that Chrystia Freeland would win the Liberal leadership race and make history as Canada’s second female prime minister. Even so, Sunday’s results must have been a blow. With Mark Carney’s landslide win, she placed second – with a mere eight per cent of the vote, compared to nearly 86 per cent for Mr. Carney.

In raw numbers, Mr. Carney received 131,674 votes; Ms. Freeland, only 11,134.

No way to polish that turd. Freeland was Trudeau’s toxic handmaiden.

How Trump thwarted Democrats

Democrats thought Trump’s second presidency would be a repeat of his first. They cornered him last time by triangulating lawsuits, the bureaucrats and RINOs to stymie a president they believed unworthy of the title.

Republicans in the Senate saddled the newbie with a Cabinet of Termites. He trusted them. Bigly yuge mistake.

Ha ha ha. 8 years later, the establishment has not changed its playbook. Football may be a game of inches, but politics is a game of adjustments. Trump adjusted.

French (Government-Owned!) Media: ‘How Could You Not’ Compare Trump to Hitler?

France 24 is a state-owned, taxpayer-funded TV news station that broadcasts French propaganda. That’s its explicit, intended purpose: In the leadup to its 2006 launch, then-President Jacques Chirac proclaimed, “We must have the ambition of a big, round-the-clock news channel in French, equal to the BBC or CNN for the English-speaking world. It is essential for the influence of our country.”

Canadian governments fail to stop money laundering because they want the cash, says law prof

Politicians in Canada are mostly pretending they’re desperate to crack down on money laundering, according to the stark, well-constructed argument of a University of Calgary law professor, Sanaa Ahmed.

Ahmed says the real reason federal and provincial governments have not made a significant dent in the laundering of dirty money is, basically, because they like the cash in the economy.

‘Climate Change’: Grift of the Century? Part I

At the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos this January, Klaus Schwab’s wife, Hilde Schwab, opened the annual meeting with the assertion that Antarctica is melting.

“Antarctica, which holds 91% of the world’s glaciers, faces catastrophic ice loss, contributing to rising sea levels,” she claimed.

That statement is simply not true. According to a recent study, Antarctica gained 661 billion tons of ice during 2009-2019. “The Antarctic continent,” in fact, “has not warmed in the last seven decades.” A December 2024 study, in addition, concluded that “iceberg calving, the detachment of ice blocks from ice sheets and glaciers… a primary process in mass loss from ice shelf systems in Antarctica and a major source of uncertainty in future projections of sea level rise” is not necessarily a consequence of climate change, not even when we’re talking about “extreme calving events”.
