OTTAWA — A frightening scene played out on Tuesday morning, when a parked semi-truck rolled into an excavation site and hit an exposed section of the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline near the Wisconsin-Michigan border.
Drone footage that was widely circulated online showed a thick, white cloud of natural gas spreading from the accident site to a meadow on the other side of a dirt road.
The United States has threatened to oppose Britain’s sovereignty over the Falkland Islands if Andy Burnham does not increase defence spending, The Telegraph can reveal.
The proposal is among measures being drawn up by senior defence officials at the Pentagon as an incentive to hit Nato’s 5 per cent spending pledge.
A senior US official told The Telegraph that Britain was likely to receive “special attention” in Washington’s review of its allies’ commitment to Nato, which will examine whether member nations have credible paths toward the target.
There have been tariffs and countertariffs, negotiations and breakdowns, “Lake America” and an invitation to kiss the Premier of Ontario’s posterior.
Since Prime Minister Mark Carney walked away from an unpalatable trade agreement with the United States, the two countries are again engaged in a tense standoff, and there is little indication about what will happen next.
Cabinet says Canadians will not be forced to use a national digital ID system despite Ottawa spending billions of dollars modernizing online government services and testing digital identification technology.
Blacklock’s Reporter said the government made the assurance in response to Petition E-6961, sponsored by Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis.

What in the world is going on in Canada? Sorry, but this is not the Canada we always associated with hockey and beautiful lakes for fishing. This new version of Canada is hard to understand. Sorry to say it again, but woke is killing the Canadians!
Last week, while vacationing in Lisbon, I found myself striking up a conversation at the hotel bar with a middle-aged couple who spoke English with a distinctly American accent (which is to say, my accent). Call them Frank and Laura. At some point, our small talk turned to that most American of topics: “So, what do you do?” Frank asked. I told them that I’m a magazine editor, and this prompted Laura to reveal that she, too, edits for a living. How wonderful.
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is warning the City of Hamilton and its police service that efforts to prevent a controversial political conference from being held in the city may violate Charter-protected freedom of expression.
Lawyers funded by the Justice Centre sent a warning letter to the city and Hamilton Police Service after Mayor Andrea Horwath and police publicly opposed the Dominion Society of Canada’s DomCon conference, scheduled for Saturday.
Using the Article III system to try Al Qaeda terrorists was a reasonable solution, the trouble is that military tribunal personnel in this century look nothing like the guys who took a smoke break and sentenced Nazi saboteurs to death during WWII. Their ideal is A Few Good Men, they’re liberals if not outright leftists, and they’re far more likely to be on the side of the terrorists than to be on our side.
A group with special operations and intelligence skills and filmmaker Chris Burgard teamed up on Saturday to teach pastors in East Texas how to respond to the rise of Islam in the Lone Star State.
The Allied Special Intelligence Group is an organization that uses its knowledge of special operations military skills, counterintelligence, and human intelligence to educate and train citizens on how to “legally and lawfully, delay, disrupt, dismantle, and remove Communists/Marxists and Terrorists networks from our communities in order to restore and protect our Constitutional Republic.”
For William McDonald, 38, a diesel mechanic from Thunder Bay, Ontario, “Canadian is always the first choice,” even if it means his weekly bills are higher.
“As soon as Trump started putting those tariffs on in February [last year], I started boycotting US goods,” he said. “Avoiding American products has driven my costs up, and I’m still happy to do it.
“I used to drink US beer, but now I drink Canadian beer, and that costs me an extra C$1,000 (£531/US$720) a year. Likewise, groceries cost about C$50 more a week, but you work that extra hour to pay for it.”
By 10am it was eerily quiet. The previous day saw market traders, hundreds of shoppers and families enjoying lunch alfresco in the late summer sun. But by Thursday morning, Braintree in Essex was a ghost town.
And then, shortly before 11am, the first minibus arrived like clockwork from Wethersfield asylum accommodation site and a group of young men disembarked, smartphones in hand, one wearing a Covid-style mask to hide his face.
‘They hang around the bus station and they whistle at the schoolgirls coming off the buses,’ complained 66-year-old local Mike Readon. ‘It’s horrendous. Lots of women just avoid the town entirely on a Thursday because it’s a totally different environment.
“Far Right Agitators” what an asinine headline. No wonder Britain is dying.
The federal government is asking a court to toss out a high-profile environmental lawsuit, arguing that it’s not required to update Canada’s climate plan to meet national emissions reduction targets.
The government also says it’s not the court’s role to make or direct climate policy, and has filed a motion asking the court to strike the case before it goes to full hearings.
Must be interfering in Carney’s profiteering.
hat is happening to American media right now is unique and deserves far more attention in Europe than it has received. This isn’t just about lawsuits for outrageous sums of money, but about massive corporate takeovers that will have lasting effects on the entire media landscape.
The most politically interesting part isn’t that President Trump has collected $86.5 million in settlements so far. It’s what’s happening at the same time.
