According to Hope Not Hate, standing up for women’s rights makes you a dangerous extremist.
Say ‘far-right extremism’ and most people will think of fascism. Perhaps Hitler, Nazis and swastikas. Or closer to home, it’s Enoch Powell and his infamous ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech. Or the National Front of the 1970s. Far less likely to spring to mind are feminists defending women’s rights. Or concerned parents who object to the sexualisation of children and to libraries hosting drag queens.
The fight between Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre was never going to be pretty, but this week both politicians fired off some words that could define not just their own fates, but the state of future Canadian political debate.
Poilievre, the Conservative leader, has gone where few, if any, opposition leaders have gone before, accusing the prime minister and his government of collaborating with a hostile foreign power — China, in this case.
Leaks to the media of Canadian Security Intelligence Service documents about China’s electoral interference, Poilievre contended, are evidence that the country’s top spies are worried about the loyalty of the leader of government.
From the paper that routinely labels conservatives as racists or racist adjacent etc etc
Barely a day goes by in Stockholm without a shooting or a bombing. In one part of the city, housing estate residents have been informed about what to do if their building is a bombing target. For all too many Swedes, this is the new normal.
Under Swedish law, children under 15 cannot be sentenced to any criminal punishment and older teenagers are seldom given more than four years in ‘compulsory care’. So mobsters now recruit young people, arm them with thermos-flask bombs or guns and send them out as soldiers in their gang wars.
The motion introduced at the House of Commons’ ethics committee on Friday to call the prime minister’s chief of staff to testify on its investigation into foreign interference means there are now two parliamentary committees seeking an audience with Katie Telford, and, presumably, two committees that are about to be gridlocked by Liberal filibusters.
Wednesday was a gruesome day for the Prime Minister. It began with a report by Global News citing two high-level memos to the Prime Minister’s Office warning, in highly specific terms, not just about foreign interference in our elections generally, but about infiltration and funding of Liberal campaigns by the government of China.
The first, a “Special Report” prepared by the Intelligence Assessment Secretariat within the Privy Council Office – which reports directly to the Prime Minister – warned that Chinese officials had passed money via intermediaries to a clandestine network of 11 candidates in the 2019 election.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford has removed Progressive Conservative MPP Vincent Ke from his position as parliamentary assistant, following a Global News report of allegations by intelligence sources that Ke was involved in an election interference network directed by China’s consulate in Toronto.
BREAKING: Vincent Ke is out of the Ontario PC Caucus.
The Premier’s office says Ke offered to step away and sit as an independent, and Premier Doug Ford accepted his resignation from the caucus. #onpoli pic.twitter.com/hzEzvBGONq

FUCK CHINA
ST-BERNARD-DE-LACOLLE, Que. — The citizens and mayor of St-Bernard-de-Lacolle, a small Quebec municipality that straddles the U.S. border and is home to the now famous irregular Roxham Road border crossing, often find themselves torn between feelings of empathy and frustration.

He’s being accused of ‘cherry-picking.’ Isn’t that exactly what the J6 Committee did?
“A hurt dog barks.”
That’s what Tucker Carlson said as he aired various bits of the 41,000 hours of surveillance video captured at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. If you want to know what the hurt dog sounds like, just listen to Senator Chuck Schumer on March 7: “Rupert Murdoch has a special obligation to stop Tucker Carlson from going on tonight [and] from letting him go on again and again and again [because] our democracy depends on it.”
The Virginia Education Association whipped the commonwealth’s Senate Democrats into opposing a Victims of Communism commemoration bill due to its “anti-Asian” sentiments, demonstrating the union’s historical ignorance, woke ideology, and educational incompetence.
Had it been the other way around, the Left’s talking heads would have descended.
Did you see this story?
A group of white elementary school kids beat three of their black schoolmates. They then ordered them to get on their knees and say, “Make America great again!” Local white leaders told people to stop worrying about this. It was no big deal.
Well, you never saw this story because it never happened. But you could not have escaped it, were it true.
A tipoff was received two months ago by the authorities in Hamburg about the gunman who went on to kill seven people including an unborn baby in a Jehovah’s Witness hall, but he had persuaded officials not to take away his gun.
An anonymous letter was received by the weapons control authority in January raising concerns about a man named by German police as Philipp F, 35, saying that he appeared angry with his former fellow church members, but officers had found no reason for concern when they visited him last month.
Faced with the emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots such as ChatGPT and its little brothers (and sisters), two ways of approaching them stand out. The first could be described as not-all-that-good at knowledge and the second as not-all-that-bad at knowledge.
The first approach is the result of catching AI at fault, for example by showing that it is in fact wrong, or flawed in its “reasoning” process. This is a very common line of attack on the networks, which are now littered with screenshots showing GPT chat errors. This is not useless: it reminds us that these AIs are not infallible. But who doubted that, when it is explicitly stated that ChatGPT, for example, has no access to the web and that its credentials end in 2021? It is amusing, in this respect, to see an intellectual as sharp as Nassim Nicholas Taleb being outraged that ChatGPT is unable to deliver URLs valid in 2023 on the bikeable roads in Atlanta.
Far-left extremist Jane Fonda said the quiet part out loud during her Friday appearance on ABC’s The View while hawking her new movie. When asked by co-host Joy Behar for a solution to the proliferation of pro-life laws around the country, the communist, anti-American activist declared that “it does involve murder” of Republican politicians. Fonda even shot a dirty look when Behar tried to claim she was “just joking.”
