ROBSON: Operation Hard Ball exposes Canada’s ‘reverse foreign interference’ problem

ROBSON: Operation Hard Ball exposes Canada’s ‘reverse foreign interference’ problem

Canada has spent years asking who is interfering inside its borders. Operation Hard Ball raises a harder question: who is using Canada to interfere, intimidate, or operate beyond them?

That is the core of reverse foreign interference. The term is not yet part of Canadian law, but it belongs in Canada’s national-security vocabulary. It describes cases in which transnational criminal, extremist, or digitally enabled networks use Canadian territory, legal protections, diaspora communities, transport routes, immigration systems, or digital space to target people, institutions, or foreign jurisdictions from Canadian soil.

Marcus Kolga: Putin’s Russia is at a dead end — Canada must help Ukraine finish the job

Marcus Kolga: Putin’s Russia is at a dead end — Canada must help Ukraine finish the job

Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine was never about protecting Russians or strengthening Russia’s place in the world. It was always a war of neo-imperialist vanity, consolidation of power, organized theft and cultural annihilation.

When Putin announced his “special military operation” in February 2022, he claimed Russia was eliminating imaginary “Nazis” in Ukraine. In reality, the objective was to destroy Ukrainian identity, language and culture, re-colonize a democratic European nation, and prove to the Russian people and the world that Putin remained a leader of historic consequence.

How many times is this “The end of Putin”? Grift is the only constant.

Trump’s Immigration Enforcement Really Is Slashing Violent Crime

Trump’s Immigration Enforcement Really Is Slashing Violent Crime

Is crime falling? Some conservatives, notably Steve Bannon, argue that Americans should ignore the FBI’s crime statistics showing record drops in violent crime. The murder rate last year fell to the lowest rate ever recorded, and the violent crime rate is clearly at the lowest in many decades. But Bannon recently declared that “nobody believes” FBI crime data or its director, Kash Patel, adding: “I don’t want to hear any more statistics about how crime’s coming down.”

That skepticism overlooks an important distinction.

Henry Nowak, Stephen Ogilvie, and the betrayal of Western societies by globalist elites

Henry Nowak, Stephen Ogilvie, and the betrayal of Western societies by globalist elites

The brutal, senseless murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak by Vickrum Digwa in the U.K. has shocked the Western world.

What angered so many British citizens – as well as Europeans and even Americans – is the callous manner in which the British police doubted and downplayed Digwa’s version of events and even handcuffed the dying and bleeding Nowak because of his killer’s false accusations of “racism.”

Pierre Poilievre says Mark Carney backed the wrong pipeline route. Is he right?

Pierre Poilievre says Mark Carney backed the wrong pipeline route. Is he right?

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney says a new oil pipeline from Alberta to British Columbia’s southwest coast will reduce Canada’s reliance on sales to the United States and boost the country’s capacity for exports to Asia.

But Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has warned that rejecting a pipeline route to B.C.‘s northwest coast will “simply lead tankers to take the oil south down to the California west coast.”

Mamdani Lists ‘Little Palestine’ as Immigrant Enclave, Ignores ‘Little Italy’

Mamdani Lists ‘Little Palestine’ as Immigrant Enclave, Ignores ‘Little Italy’

Little Italy is a New York City landmark. It’s a cultural touchtone where movies have been set. Tourists troop over to pick up Sopranos t-shirts and go out to an Italian restaurant.

‘Little Palestine’ is Islamic colonialist nonsense that no one had ever heard of. But the Mamdani regime predictably put out a map of what it claimed were “New York City Immigrant Enclaves” which listed ‘Little Palestine’, ‘Little Pakistan’, ‘Little Yemen’, ‘Little Albania’ and ‘Little Egypt’, but didn’t mention ‘Little Italy.’

Couple sues Ontario surrogate mother who refused to abort fetus

A Canadian couple is suing the surrogate mother who carried their son, two years after she refused their request to abort the fetus because of a cleft lip and possible genetic abnormalities.

The Ontario-based surrogate insisted that more tests be conducted and eventually the same-sex couple agreed to let the pregnancy continue, as specialists indicated he was a healthy child with a relatively minor birth defect.

NASA reveals it has captured UFO imagery as space agency chief admits ‘there’s life everywhere’

NASA reveals it has captured UFO imagery as space agency chief admits ‘there’s life everywhere’

NASA’s chief administrator confirmed in a bombshell interview that the space agency has taken images of objects which can only be described as UFOs.

Jared Isaacman, who took over as leader of NASA in December 2025, said real imagery captured from space could not be explained away as a comet or other natural phenomenon.

While Isaacman stopped short of calling it proof of alien life, he was confident that the ultimate conclusion would be that the universe is full of extraterrestrial life, which humans have not yet discovered.

Show me the damn spaceship.

How can we de-programme the police?

How can we de-programme the police?

I’m not sure why I started following the photographer Alastair Hilton on X. He’s right-ish politically, so perhaps the algorithm just blew him my way. But through the rising tide of online bilge, I still seek out and enjoy Hilton’s posts, mostly because he talks about pubs and posts pictures of cold pints on hot days.

Hilton has a narrowboat on the Thames in Chiswick and seems to half live in the bars along the river, so he was extremely cross about a recent proposal to remove the tables and chairs from the riverside, especially from his local pub, the Bell and Crown. Last week he posted a video in which he said that the word on the Chiswick street is that getting rid of the outdoor seating was the sneaky pet project of a local Green party councillor, Rick Rowe, who lives Thames-side with his boyfriend and dislikes the noise – though you’d have thought a local councillor would support a struggling pub.
