Michael Higgins: Dark arts of Katie Telford and the PMO cast a shadow over all of Canada

Is the Prime Minister’s Office keeping Justin Trudeau in the dark?

At first blush, such an idea seems outlandish, but what if the PMO had done so in the past? And what if such a manoeuvre allowed the prime minister the luxury and expediency of plausible deniability?

Now the dark arts of PMO advisers would be a major bonus.

Opponents of Ontario’s Sex-Ed Curriculum Run Up Against Human Rights Code

When parents and others have raised the alarm over sex education in Ontario schools, many have hit the same wall: the province’s Human Rights Code.

School board trustees who support the current sex-ed regimen often frame complaints as discriminatory by citing the code. These trustees, along with the province’s human rights system itself, create a significant barrier to change.

The “Human Rights” scam is a case of the lunatics running the asylum.

Canadian MPs hear testimony about Chinese Communists shipping in ‘busloads’ of people to vote in nominee races

During testimony before the House of Commons ethics committee last week, a Chinese-Canadian filmmaker revealed that he witnessed firsthand proxies of the Communist Party of China (CCP) take busloads of people to vote for the regime’s preferred candidate in Canada’s nomination races.

Tents slashed and supplies destroyed: ‘Cop City’ activists describe police intimidation

A police helicopter circled so close to a house in the leafy Atlanta neighborhood called Lakewood late on Saturday night that a resident said he could “damn near see the pilot”.

The resident, who asked for anonymity in order to speak with the Guardian, decided to go to a nearby friend’s house. Others were not so lucky. Several dozen other people, including members of a medical crew, were then rousted from campsites on the resident’s property during a post-dawn police raid that followed.

The Untold Story of Racial Classification in America

… Bernstein writes about “identity entrepreneurs,” people who claim and leverage a minority identity for economic or other gains, even though that identity never resulted in their facing discrimination. He writes about race fakers such as the Malone twins and Rachel Dolezal, and the suspect Cherokee ancestry claims of Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). He also raises the complexities posed by people like Tiger Woods, who calls himself ‘Cablinasian’ and refuses to identify as African-American as that would ignore his own mother’s part in his ancestry; and Kamala Harris, who identifies as Black but can legally claim Asian and White identities as well.

The Humans Who Live as Lab Rats

The trainee couldn’t find Raighne Hogan’s vein. They were at an inpatient facility in West Bend, Wisconsin, northwest of Milwaukee, and she was maybe 18, and she was trying to draw his blood. She kept poking and prodding his forearm. No dice. When Hogan started to bleed all over himself, down his arm, his wrist, she fainted. He remembers sitting there. No nurses in sight.

It wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.

The Pedophile Behind Prison Abolition

Foucault, who sexually abused 8-year-olds, advocated for pedophiles.

When Angela Davis, a domestic terrorist, wrote, “Racialized Punishment and Prison Abolition”, she began by extensively citing an ex-Marxist French philosopher. “Michel Foucault’s ‘Discipline and Punish’ is arguably the most influential text in contemporary studies of the prison system,” she argued while crediting herself with an analysis of the “racial implications” of his ideas.

Bin Laden? Never trust a man with a beard like that, Saddam Hussein told FBI

When the FBI interrogated Saddam Hussein after his capture in Iraq in December 2003, the agency had two key objectives: uncover the truth about the Iraqi dictator’s weapons of mass destruction, and determine his links with al-Qaeda.

These had been pivotal in making the case for war as President George W Bush and American intelligence agencies tied Saddam and the Iraqi regime to the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington by the terror group two years earlier.

Time to Think: how the Tavistock harmed children

Hannah Barnes’ book uncovers the terrifying lack of evidence behind so much ‘gender affirming’ treatment.

‘Are we hurting children?’ That is the question that underpins Hannah Barnes’ new book on the rise and collapse of the Tavistock’s Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS), the UK’s only specialist clinic for children experiencing gender dysphoria. GIDS is closing this spring following the findings of NHS England’s interim Cass Review last year. Time to Think aims to give us the answers as to why this has happened – and it delivers.

Haiti’s sudden turn for the worse puts Trudeau on the spot

“There’s one event that tells it all,” Haitian businessman Marco Larosilière told CBC News from his home in Port-au-Prince.

“Last week, the general inspector of the national police was kidnapped with his son in front of his school.”

If a high-ranking official of the national police is not safe, said Larosilière, “what about the rest of the population?”


Toronto armoured vehicle company rejects Haiti’s claim it hasn’t lived up to its word

Haiti’s troubled government is accusing Canada of stalling in its promised delivery of armoured vehicles, and argues the delay is hindering a plan to clear violent gangs from Port-au-Prince.

Yet the Toronto company making the mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicles says it’s working as fast it can in the face of supply-chain disruptions and mistakes by Haitian officials.

C’mon Even CAF is saying they’re not up to the task of taming Haiti’s Gangs. That’s how pathetic our government and armed forces are.
