Lloyd Axworthy: Mark Carney has flipped the plan on how to protect Canada and here is why I’m concerned

On Thursday, the Carney government released a paper outlining its security policy framework, a long-awaited exposition of its view on how to protect Canadians in this troubled world.
It needs to be carefully considered by Canadians, as it portrays a country very different from the internationalist-minded, human-rights-conscious, effective diplomatic participant that Canada has been for countless decades; a country that helped construct the laws and treaties governing international conduct and protection.

Toronto police chief defends decision not to arrest Bridle Path home invasion suspect at hospital

Toronto’s top cop says the decision not to arrest a suspect involved in a violent Bridle Path home invasion last week after he arrived at a hospital with a gunshot wound was informed by the evidence investigators had at that time.

“They responded to the hospital as they would when people walk into the hospital with a gunshot wound, which happens in the city from time to time, and they advanced the investigation with the speed and flow that was available to them,” Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw said on Monday.

Judge dismisses case against ex-FBI agents accused on lying to Congress in Hunter Biden investigation

A federal judge on Monday dismissed a criminal complaint against a pair of former FBI officials accused of lying to Congress during its investigation of Hunter Biden.

Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui found the government had failed to show probable cause that Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides had lied to lawmakers about what they knew about the investigation into Hunter Biden’s laptop. Data from the abandoned computer later led to successful criminal charges against former President Joe Biden’s son.

I stared down the ‘Blind Sheikh’ for the FBI. What’s happening today is far more dangerous

It was a surreal moment — here I was, an FBI agent on the Joint Terrorism Task Force, standing on a street corner in Jersey City, going jaw to jaw with the infamous spiritual leader of the Islamic Group, the “Blind Sheikh,” Omar Abdel-Rahman. An Egyptian cleric marinated in ideological hatred by the Muslim Brotherhood, the man who issued the “fatwa” to assassinate Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, now spewed forth vitriol toward me and the United States government. I knew this hatred intimately, having once dodged an irate mob of Saudi Arabian villagers who took serious offense to a cross necklace I was wearing.

Canada finding ‘solutions’ on EU carbon tariff threat: Carney

Prime Minister Mark Carney says Ottawa has made progress on a trade irritant with the European Union — a carbon tariff on energy-intensive Canadian exports.

At the closing news conference for the Canada-EU summit in Montreal, Carney said there are “common solutions” to resolving the carbon import levy on Canadian products such as iron ore, steel, aluminum, cement and other goods.

South Africa’s Biggest City Faces Total Infrastructure Collapse

South Africa’s Biggest City Faces Total Infrastructure Collapse

Over 50 years of communist anti-colonialism in the third world, aided by some liberal governments in the west, has provided uncomfortable truths about what works and what doesn’t when it comes to human civilization. The first and most controversial truth is that, in many cases, third world societies are self destructive and incapable of maintaining the most basic of necessities.

The second controversial truth is that these same societies run by western interests function far better. All vital infrastructure is maintained and the people have upward mobility. In other words, western colonialism works. No matter what leftists and anti-colonial activists claim, time has proven them wrong.

Thousands of OSAP applications came from a single IP address, ministry alleges

TORONTO — At two career colleges now under the Ontario government’s microscope, more than half of the thousands of student financial aid applications last year came from a single IP address, officials allege in documents filed in court.

The government has also received more than 200 tips about that network of schools, including allegations that certain recruiters were submitting students’ Ontario Student Assistance Program applications at those schools, which is not allowed, and completing their coursework, those same documents show.


This is where identity politics leads.

Toss all foreign students out of Canada and shut down the diploma mills.

Henry Nowak’s family tell of trauma of seeing son handcuffed as he lay dying

The family of Henry Nowak have said the trauma of learning he had been murdered was made worse by watching police footage of officers handcuffing him as he lay dying.

They told ITV their “world has changed twice”, first when they were told he had died, and again when they watched the body-worn camera video.

His killer, Vickrum Digwa, falsely told police Henry had racially abused him, and officers handcuffed the student as he repeatedly said he had been stabbed.

Mark Carney and the last hurrah of the centrist dads

Why are centrist dads so obsessed with getting closer to the European Union? Not only is Andy Burnham at it, but even Canada, which lies thousands of miles from the Continent, is having a go.

Last week, its prime minister, Mark Carney – denizen of Davos, erstwhile central bank governor and champion of centrist daddyness everywhere – confirmed Ottawa’s interest in becoming an “associate member”. It was like the death rattle of a doomed elite.
