Amy Hamm: Debra Soh’s Sextinction shows us how lonely our future might be

Amy Hamm: Debra Soh’s Sextinction shows us how lonely our future might be

In Aldous Huxley’s seminal Brave New World, published in 1932, the author imagined what terrible things advancing technologies might do to mankind. In Huxley’s created world, set in 2540, human beings are grown in labs — but not due to any cultural aversion to sex. The culture is hypersexual: the totalitarian government uses a slogan, “everyone belongs to everyone else” to brainwash its citizenry into a collectivist identity that makes taboo monogamy and even motherhood. Regular and extreme promiscuity are the norm, in Huxley’s world.

The stats that shame New York: NYPD reveals shocking toll of bloodshed as Knicks’ historic title win plunged the city into meltdown

The NYPD has released a full rundown of the shameful scenes that marred the Knicks’ NBA title win on Saturday night, with multiple fans shot, stabbed and slashed in the chaos.

New York ended its 53-year wait for an NBA championship in San Antonio, but the real party took place back in the Big Apple, as millions of fans took to the streets into the early hours of Sunday morning.

While many did their best to stay out of trouble, others went looking for it and a shocking series of videos showed fans ripping apart school buses, fighting with riot police and smashing up cop cars near Times Square.

What a Zoo!

Chronically ill people are turning to MAID for a dignified death. Why can’t we give them a dignified life?

Chronically ill people are turning to MAID for a dignified death. Why can’t we give them a dignified life?

When is it enough?

This question has often run through my head. Maybe it’s the question everyone living with chronic illness asks themselves at certain times. Which is to say, “What is a good life? What is a life worth living?”

For 40 years I’ve lived with Type 1 diabetes. There have been good years and bad years. Complications, some challenging, most manageable, built up over time. Then, four years ago I developed long COVID. Diabetes was plenty to manage. Long COVID’s neurological effects took living with disability to a whole other level. It was, at times, too much.

Europe’s cities have turned into suburbs of the Horn of Africa

Europe’s cities have turned into suburbs of the Horn of Africa

The orange lights of the street lamps, the wet asphalt, a black shadow savagely attacking a white body as if it were slitting a goat’s throat at the Mogadishu market. A video like this cannot be invented.

Instead, one thinks of those dark centuries we thought we had relegated to the margins of history, those times when heads were cut off to be displayed on bastions and the “defeated” were mutilated so that their flesh would speak louder than their deaths.

And I wondered if our main weakness has not become the inability to recognize barbarism when it appears before us.

Marty York: The Muslim and Arab Canadians who can’t stand Carney’s inaction on Jew-hate

Carney speaks at a Muslim Brotherhood function[/caption]While many Canadian Jews feel alone and unsupported because of increases in antisemitism, they may find it comforting to learn that many non-Jews, including a number with Muslim and Arabic backgrounds, are objecting strongly to some of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s questionable choices.

Take Canadian human-rights activists Yasmine Mohammed and Ashti Waissi, for instance.

Let’s Have a Serious Conversation About Race

Let’s Have a Serious Conversation About Race

“What the hell is wrong with these people?” I heard someone ask as a clip of Jasmine Crockett played on the television at the restaurant bar the other day. What was Crockett talking about? Her sympathy for the murderer named Karmelo Anthony because he’s black. Yes, that’s why she cares, or at least pretends to care, about the fate of the man who’ll spend at least the next 17.5 years of his life in prison in Texas. How could anyone, real or not, go on camera and express sympathy for a murderer, at the expense of the murder victim and his family, no less? There’s really only one possibility: the cancerous cultural rot Democrats have forced and enforced on the black community.

Canadian military struggles to recruit despite strong support from young Canadians

Canadian military struggles to recruit despite strong support from young Canadians

Most young Canadians view the military favourably, but only a minority would seriously consider joining its ranks, according to new Department of National Defence research highlighting ongoing recruitment challenges for the Canadian Armed Forces.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the study found that while 79% of Canadians under 34 hold a positive opinion of the military, just 30% said they would likely consider a career in the armed forces.

What Tommy Robinson really sees in Russia

What Tommy Robinson really sees in Russia

Everyone who is everyone – within a certain political and social fragment – has been in Russia this past week. Conservative American conspiracy theorist Candace Owens; Errol Musk, father of Elon; toxic “manosphere” influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate; and Tommy Robinson, the far-right activist.

Robinson told the Guardian that he had travelled to Moscow “to see how this country got itself so well on to the straight and narrow and see the beauty of a civilised society here.” In the process, he was walking a well-trodden path of westerners heading to Russia to see exactly what they want to see. Once it was socialists like Sidney and Beatrice Webb, who found Stalin’s regime “the very opposite of a dictatorship.” In the 1990s, free-marketeers hailed the plunder of Russia as the apotheosis of liberal capitalism. These days, it is conservatives rhapsodising about Putin’s Russia being the antidote to degenerate western wokeness.

A more conciliatory Ford says ‘I love the U.S.’ as trade talks loom

A more conciliatory Ford says ‘I love the U.S.’ as trade talks loom

Doug Ford appears to be throttling back on aggressive anti-Trump rhetoric with key trade talks looming with the United States, stepping up a charm offensive aimed at politicians and lobby groups in the mercurial president’s orbit.

Earlier this week, Ford wrapped the first of three planned trips to the U.S. in June to pitch Ontario’s “Fortress North America” plan to policy-makers and industry leaders.

The premier has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump since the U.S. president imposed his tariff plan on Canada. Ford made his fight against Trump the centrepiece of his successful re-election bid in early 2025 and even vowed to campaign against Trump in the mid-terms.

The Forgotten Christians of Egypt

The Forgotten Christians of Egypt

More than a decade ago the Egyptian military ended Cairo’s short-lived experiment with democracy. When Gen. Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, both Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and Minister of Defense, seized power in July 2013, he did so with the public support of Coptic Pope Tawadros II. Unfortunately, el-Sisi has betrayed the estimated 15 million Copts in Egypt, the largest Christian population in the Middle East. Although Cairo is a nominal American ally, it oppresses religious minorities as well as political dissidents. These practices contribute to the instability and violence which continue to bedevil the Mideast and entangle the United States.

Bill C-34 just Liberal censorship behind child-protection smokescreen

Once again, the Liberal government is attempting to restrict legal Internet content that they believe threatens “social stability” or is deemed “harmful” to Canada.

This week, the government introduced Bill C-34. The elements of the bill that grabbed the headlines were the ones to keep teenagers under the age of 16 off of social media platforms.

Europe in Wonderland: Belgium Criminalizes Truth

Europe in Wonderland: Belgium Criminalizes Truth

In a ruling that should send chills down the spine of anyone who still believes in the Enlightenment values of reason, evidence, and open debate, a Belgian court has convicted nationalist activist Dries Van Langenhove for the crime of stating uncomfortable facts.

On May 26, 2026, the Correctional Court of Leuven fined Van Langenhove €4,000 for a February 2024 lecture at KU Leuven University. The offense? Presenting data on mass migration, group differences in intelligence and achievement, crime statistics, and the failures of multiculturalism — in a manner the court deemed to create an “us versus them” atmosphere.

Pakistan says US and Iran have reached peace deal as Trump posts ‘let the oil flow!’

Getting to this point has taken weeks of careful negotiation, with Pakistani mediators balancing the competing, often contradictory, demands of Tehran and Washington.

In the end, they seem to have managed to get both sides to agree to the same deal, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and lifting the US blockade, according to Trump, and ending the fighting – including in Lebanon.
