At their joint press conference on Thursday, President Trump said that he and Xi were “united” when it came to Iran: no nukes, open the Strait of Hormuz without Iranian blackmail, and no Chinese weapons sales.
And while President Trump said before the summit he didn’t need Chinese help with Iran, after their initial meeting, he told Sean Hannity that China will help “in any way it can.”
If all of this comes true, it is very bad news for Tehran.
Claire Brosseau has travelled the world doing stand-up comedy and acting in television shows, films and plays. She has also been struggling with debilitating mental illness from a young age, and has been treated by psychiatrists in four major North American cities over three decades.
Brosseau has tried nearly every treatment available to people like herself with bipolar disorder and PTSD, she said, from behavioral therapy and medication to electric shocks to the brain.
The US has recovered four distinct species of extraterrestrial life from crashed UFOs, a former CIA-funded government researcher sensationally claimed this week.
Dr. Hal Puthoff, former Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program advisor and CIA-funded researcher, made the claim alongside “Age of Disclosure” director Dan Farrah on Steve Bartlett’s “The Diary of a CEO” podcast on Thursday.
“People who have been involved in recoveries have said there are at least four types. Four separate types,” the 89-year-old said. “Now I have not had direct access to that but I believe the people who I talked to — four separate types of life.”
Something very few people are talking about right now is how recycling policy is quietly adding pressure to food inflation in Canada.
For years, Canadians have tried to understand why food inflation has become such a persistent problem. We’ve debated carbon taxes, labour shortages, transportation costs, supply management, exchange rates, climate events, and corporate concentration. All of these factors matter. But another growing source of inflationary pressure has received remarkably little attention: recycling policy.
Iran’s regime must be understood for what it is: a heavily armed group of thugs and, according to the US government, “the largest state sponsor of terrorism” 39 years in a row. Iran’s regime holds power through a brute force that terrorizes not only its neighbors and the broader world through proxies, ballistic missiles, and imminent nuclear capability, but also its own population of roughly 93 million. Decades of repression, of “exporting the revolution,” and ideological extremism have defined its identity, firmly rooted in anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism and contempt for its own citizens.
For months, Canadian officials have maintained that the long-awaited opening of the $6.4 billion Gordie Howe International Bridge connecting Detroit and Windsor, Ont., is dependent on various testing and commissioning tasks.
But fresh comments from a Canadian cabinet member as well as two top U.S. officials suggests there is a link between the current trade war and the new border crossing’s opening timeline.
A White House official on Friday said the Trump administration “continues to engage with all of our trading partners to resolve longstanding unfair trade practices.”
Nigeria and the United States say they have killed a senior Islamic State (IS) leader in a joint-operation.
Abu-Bilal al-Minuki was described by US President Donald Trump as the “second in command of ISIS globally” and “the most active terrorist in the world”.
IS has radically shifted in recent years, with around 90% of its attacks now taking place in sub-Saharan Africa. Its Nigeria-based branch is by far the most active.
Police investigating Brampton towing company after reports of unauthorized tows
A 39-year-old Brampton man has been charged for allegedly towing multiple vehicles belonging to members of the public “without authorization”, earlier this month.

ABC’s recent history of blaming the United States, and especially the Trump administration, and not communism for Cuba’s ongoing economic disaster continued on Saturday’s Good Morning America as reporter Alex Presha and guest co-host Rachel Scott blamed American sanctions instead. Unfortunately, this time, they were also joined by CBS Saturday Morning and White House reporter Olivia Rinaldi, who claimed the U.S. was “plunging the country into darkness.”
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith trumpeted a new energy accord she signed with Ottawa on Friday as a salve for separatists in her province, while some First Nations and her counterpart in British Columbia slammed it as a reward for bad behaviour.
Ms. Smith and Prime Minister Mark Carney on Friday unveiled the details of the pact designed to smooth the path for a bitumen pipeline to the West Coast. Alberta agreed to increase the carbon price it imposes on oil producers, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through carbon capture and storage, while Ottawa agreed to support a pipeline to tidewater.
I dunno about this. Carney is blarney.
Israel says it has killed the leader of Hamas’ military wing, one of the architects of the Oct, 7, 2023, attacks that triggered the war in Gaza.
Izz al-Din al-Haddad was killed in a strike in Gaza City on Friday, Israel’s army said.
He was one of the last senior commanders in Hamas’ military who had directed the planning and execution of the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attacks on Israel.
Anyone can be a journalist now, said Jordan B. Peterson a few years ago. “No one has a monopoly on bandwidth anymore.” Anyone can launch their own podcast or YouTube show, he said, and that means “classical journalists are really up against it.”
Few people embody that fact more than Peterson himself. In just a decade, he built a media empire: books, podcasts, streaming series, long-form documentaries, even an online university. He’s been called a luminary, a genius, a quack and a bigot.
