OTTAWA — Four years ago, Laura Harth exposed more than 100 secret Chinese police stations operating across the democratic world, three of them in the Greater Toronto Area. Working independently, The Bureau later tied one of those Toronto-area sites, a Markham address under RCMP investigation, to a man linked to methamphetamine investigations in Japan, whom Tokyo police had also sought to question in an unsolved triple murder.
Harth’s research also led the FBI to a Manhattan storefront.
The next cyberattack against an American company may not begin with a suspicious email, a stolen password, or a hacker manually probing a network. It may begin with artificial intelligence finding a flaw buried in software that has been running for years, then helping an adversary turn that discovery into a weapon.
The federal government enacted changes to Canada’s asylum process on Tuesday that would speed up the deportation of illegal immigrants.
In a legal notice obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada noted that the number of asylum claimants awaiting a decision by the department ballooned in the last four years, going from 70,000 at the end of 2022 to nearly 300,000 at the end of 2025.
China’s role in funding Jew-hate — and whipping up unrest in the United States through local non-profits abusing their tax-exempt status — is finally coming to light thanks to a two-year investigation by the US House of Representatives Committee on Ways and Means. The probe began in 2024 and has been investigating how countless foreign actors have been able to wield foreign influence through the use of local tax-exempt non-profits.
Quebec has perfected such a vast variety of profanity that it’s been called “the Amazon rainforest of swear words”. But uttering these blasphemous terms could have once landed you in prison.
Thursday nights at Quebec City jazz joint Bar Sainte-Angèle are known for a buzzy open mic where veterans swap improvisational riffs with students from the nearby music conservatory. But as I elbowed towards the bar on a recent evening, I overheard a patron practicing a different local art with equal parts precision and heart.
“Sacrement d’ostie de tabarnak”, he said, cursing as his eyebrows climbed towards the bar’s heavy-timbered ceiling. Taken literally, it translates to “sacrament of the communion host of the tabernacle”. But the real meaning is anything but churchly.
A fresh wave of bomb threats disrupted air traffic across Europe on Friday but the affected aircraft landed safely and searches revealed no explosive devices.
The latest alerts affected at least 18 flights to or from Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czechia, France, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Romania and the UK.
Danish police investigated a threat against Copenhagen airport but the airport’s management said it was operating normally.
The public continues to express outrage over the vicious attack on an air cadet commander in Hamilton, Ont., that has reportedly left 59-year-old Capt. Ken Kunkel unable to walk.
According to a statement by the family obtained by Global News, Kunkel suffered life-altering injuries, underwent spinal surgery and won’t be able to walk for the unforeseeable future.
Production of Cybertrucks — the pickups hailed by enthusiasts as a symbol of Elon Musk’s futuristic ambitions and equally hated as ugly reminders of the Donald Trump era — will wind down, the Tesla CEO said Friday.
Tesla will stop building the truck at its Texas factory around the middle of 2027 to free up space for its Cybercab robotaxi, Musk said.
When wildfires were burning across Canada in July, and the smoke was blowing into the United States, Michigan’s Mike Rogers was among those demanding punishment.
The now defeated Republican candidate for Senate, echoing U.S. President Donald Trump, said Canada should pay more, on top of the current tariffs, to cover the cost of that pollution.
Thomas Markle, father of the Duchess of Sussex, has been arrested by US federal agents in Florida on charges related to child sexual abuse material.
Markle, 82, was taken into custody near Tampa early on Friday, US prosecutors said.
Meghan said last month that she was “deeply distressed” about allegations that a collection of child sexual abuse images was found at her father’s former home.
More than half of Canadians are perhaps blissfully unaware of how high the cost of sanitary napkins and tampons can be.
In September, the federal government announced it was investing $60 million for a pilot project that aimed to improve affordability and accessibility to essential menstrual products.
Yup.

As the US midterm election results rolled in, long-held Israeli assumptions about the transatlantic alliance began to shatter.
“For us in Israel, this will be a generational sea change,” wrote one prominent journalist in Israel’s biggest-selling newspaper, right-leaning Yedioth Ahronoth. “The [prime minister, Benjamin] Netanyahu government sowed the wind and reaped the tsunami.”
Israel’s opposition leaders have lined up to blame their prime minister, with one saying the US results showed “just how toxic Netanyahu has become” among both Democrats and Republicans.
Mark Carney is making a bet.
He believes massive public investing now will position the Canadian economy to grow in spite of the trade war and the shifting winds of global geopolitics.
By the 2030-31 fiscal year, the federal government will shoulder $85.5 billion in annual public debt charges. By then, Carney hopes the bet will have paid off and the economy will have undergone a transformation.
Vice President JD Vance has created distance between himself and President Donald Trump ahead of a likely 2028 presidential bid. Trump doesn’t seem to mind. At least not yet.
Through leaks and public comments, Vance has made it clear that he opposed the Iran war. Unlike Trump, Vance didn’t endorse Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in his recent election.
