A White Couple Moved Into a Black Neighborhood in Austin and It Turned Into a South Park Episode.

As someone noted on social media, this story is a South Park episode. It’s also fitting that the woman at the center of this controversy supports James Talarico. According to numerous clips, the woman left notes on cars near her $1.5 million home, telling drivers not to park there. The home is reportedly near a Historically Black College and University. The woman, who was white, got confronted, got huffy, dropped the school’s reported 25 percent graduation rate, and now they’re besieged. This white couple bought their home in a black neighborhood in Austin, Texas.

Canada Doubles Down on Letting Indigenous Criminals Off Easy

Canada Doubles Down on Letting Indigenous Criminals Off Easy

In the United States, the law is the same for everyone, regardless of race — at least theoretically. But in Canada, there is a parallel justice system for the favored race: indigenous people.

Since 1999, judges have been asked to give more lenient sentences to indigenous people out of ideological concern for “Indigenous overincarceration.” In addition, indigenous people are offered “sentencing circles” specific to “Aboriginal offenders.” These “sentencing circles” consist of members of the indigenous community, including “Elders”; they make recommendations to a judge about what sentence a person should receive.

The Special Interest Coalition That Thrives on Scarcity

The Special Interest Coalition That Thrives on Scarcity

Much of the unrest in the United States stems from unaffordability. Across every political contest from California to the East Coast, the affordability playbook is the same: “the cost of living is too high, and the opposition party is to blame.” The first part of this message ought to be beyond serious debate. The cost of housing, the biggest single expense most families face, has skyrocketed in recent decades. The median home price is now five times the median household income, double the ratio of home prices to household income in the 1980s. But the second part of this message is objectively false, because to the extent that a painfully escalated cost of living isn’t the result of bipartisan mistakes, it can be laid at the feet of progressives. Nowhere is this more evident than in expensive California, where progressives have wielded absolute power for a generation.

‘We’ve been too naive for too long’: How China is infiltrating Taiwan—and why the West should be heeding its warning

‘We’ve been too naive for too long’: How China is infiltrating Taiwan—and why the West should be heeding its warning

When Prime Minister Mark Carney stood in Beijing in January and said Canada’s new “strategic partnership” with China set both countries up for a “new world order,” it marked a striking reversal. Less than a year earlier, on the election campaign trail, Carney had named China as Canada’s biggest security threat. And a year before the trip, the Hogue Commission’s report on foreign interference concluded that China is the most persistent and sophisticated foreign interference threat to Canada’s democratic institutions and elections.

An ICE Shooting and the Left’s Mad Rush to Judgment

An ICE Shooting and the Left’s Mad Rush to Judgment

On October 8, Oscar Belgal was shot and wounded by an agent of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Manhattan. Agents had been attempting to apprehend Belgal, an illegal alien, and deport him back to his native Dominican Republic.

The shooting was immediately and predictably denounced by New York City’s left-wing politicians, though none of the relevant facts had yet been established.

Mark Norman: Canada’s defence-spending quagmire

Mark Norman: Canada’s defence-spending quagmire

I was pleased to have been asked to contribute to the analysis of Canada’s defence spending and related metrics by the team at Benchmark Canada. I commend the process and believe it will be helpful in informing public discourse and debate about defence spending and the rebuilding of Canada’s military and security capabilities. With that said, however, building and maintaining an effective military is a complex undertaking and we should be careful what conclusions or inferences we draw from the analysis. I will refrain from focusing too much on the data itself, and instead I will try to provide context and a broader understanding of the implications of what the analysis tells us.

Putin’s ‘Ceasefire’ Trap

Putin’s ‘Ceasefire’ Trap

Wars of attrition are won by whoever can keep paying for them, and Vladimir Putin has spent more than four and a half years betting that Ukraine’s Western partners would tire before Russia’s treasury did. In three days, Washington gave that bet its best return in months.

On October 9, President Donald Trump announced a deal for diesel fuel with the Kremlin. The next day, he suggested that Ukrainians find themselves a new president. On October 11, he proclaimed an “ENERGY CEASEFIRE” that Kyiv had not been told about and that Moscow declined to confirm; within hours, Russian strikes hit the CHP-5 power plant in Ukraine’s Kharkiv.

Chrystia Freeland’s book spills the tea on her ‘Unreliable Boyfriend’ and Justin Trudeau does not come off well

Chrystia Freeland’s book spills the tea on her ‘Unreliable Boyfriend’ and Justin Trudeau does not come off well

First of all, that title.

Chrystia Freeland chose to call her new book “Unreliable Boyfriend” — the boyfriend in question being the United States — which puts the focus firmly on her role in managing Canada’s fraught relationship with Donald Trump’s America.

But the reality is there are at least two unreliable boyfriends in Freeland’s story, a compelling mix of personal memoir, political insider gossip and policy vision for a post-Trump world.

Bombshell Report Reveals How Major Banks Discriminated Against Conservatives

Bombshell Report Reveals How Major Banks Discriminated Against Conservatives

Nine of the country’s biggest banks spent five years running an outrageous campaign to cut conservatives, Christians, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters out of the financial system, and the federal government now has the receipts.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) released its Debanking Review on Wednesday. Miranda Devine first broke the story in the New York Post. The 47-page report, titled “Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans,” draws on a hundred thousand complaints and fifty thousand internal bank records from 2020 through 2025. It names JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC, TD Bank, and BMO Bank.

Every one of them hid behind the same excuse: “reputation risk.”


TD has been caught in a string of questionable activities, even colluding with the likes of North Korea and drug cartels.

OPP yet to launch formal probe into alleged ‘egregious’ OSAP use at career colleges

As the Ford government faces increasing scrutiny over how a handful of private career colleges tapped into the OSAP system, Ontario’s provincial police say they are reviewing the allegations but have yet to decide on whether to launch a formal criminal probe.

In early October, the Ministry of Colleges and Universities sounded the alarm about six private career colleges that were engaged in “egregious use of taxpayer dollars” and accused them of criminality by taking advantage of the student assistance program.
