Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that President Donald Trump told him he would want to “go in” to Iran to remove enriched uranium from the country.
“I’m not going to talk about military means, but the president, what President Trump has said to me, ‘I want to go in there.’ And I think it can be done physically; that’s not the problem. If you have an agreement and you go in and you take it out, why not? That’s the best way,” Netanyahu said.
OTTAWA – A Liberal government bill that would make it easier for police and spies to navigate the online world is running into fierce opposition from major digital companies, civil liberties groups and law professors who say it would open the door to serious privacy infringements.
The government says the bill — “An Act respecting lawful access” — will ensure law enforcement agencies have the legal tools to prevent, investigate and respond to modern crime and protect Canadians in a manner consistent with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Just over a month before the opening kick of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, warning signs suggest the tournament’s long-promised economic windfall may be far less spectacular than advertised. Hotel owners across much of the United States are confronting an inconvenient reality: The World Cup tourism boom has yet to materialize.In a report released this week by the American Hotel and Lodging Association, nearly 80 percent of surveyed hotels across the 11 Amerian host cities reported that bookings for June and July are tracking below expectations.Many markets are reporting booking levels that are not only softer than expected for a World Cup summer, but in some cases lagging behind a normal June or July.
Iran has sent its response to US proposals to end the war via mediators in Pakistan, Iranian state media report.
No details have been released. The US has not made details of its proposals public, either, but reports suggest they centre on a 14-point memorandum of understanding, which could lead to negotiations on Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
A ceasefire meant to facilitate talks to end the war launched by the US and Israel in February has been largely observed, despite occasional exchanges of fire.
However, Iran has continued to block the Strait of Hormuz – leading to a rise in world oil prices – and the US has been enforcing a blockade of Iranian ports to exert pressure on Tehran to agree to its terms.
Thousands of temporary residents are being squeezed out by Canada’s shifting immigration reality. Here’s what the country could lose
They’ve spent months and years living, studying and working toward the Canadian dream, once touted as the “economic engine” for this country’s post-COVID-19 recovery and future growth.
But after all their toil to build a new life here, their journeys have stalled.
An IT specialist, a special-needs teacher, an engineer with two master’s degrees: They’re among hundreds of thousands of temporary residents who have been left in limbo by Canada’s immigration pivot.
And the latest immigrant Sob Story from CTV – 28 seems a bit “old” for a youth and I doubt he was even born in Canada.
The Media is busy working the immigration scam on behalf of their paymaster.
SEND THEM HOME.
The project’s goal was to expand the pipeline system’s capacity by allowing the transport of up to 830,000 barrels of oil per day over a distance of approximately 1,210 miles. The aim was to provide a more direct route for Canadian oil, and provisions were included for adding American-produced oil from the Bakken formation in Montana and North Dakota.
The last time we reported on this Keystone XL, President Donald Trump was promising to revive the project “on day one.”

Israel’s kinetic war against Hamas has been successful. Although still defiant, Hamas is a shadow of its pre-October 7 self. The possibility of an October 7 reprisal is forever nil. But Hamas and their supporters are winning the equally important battle for hearts and minds in demonizing Israel and Jews.
Their toxic flow of accusations — settler colonialism, apartheid and, above all, genocide in Gaza — have never been interrogated in a court of actual law. But they will be. As alpha Israeli journalist Amit Segal recently reported in his daily newsletter, It’s Noon in Israel, “Oct 7 launched the propaganda war, but the trial of the perpetrators will put the propagandists on trial.”
In 1759, Samuel Johnson wrote: “No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned.” Certainly being a sailor then was dangerous too, with privateering and piracy rife. But being a sailor in the Arabian Gulf in 2026 is, according to the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), an unprecedented humanitarian crisis that even Johnson could not expect.
No one knows what mental toll will be exacted by the enforced imprisonment of 20,000 seafarers on board 2,000 vessels trapped either side of the Strait of Hormuz for the past ten weeks. “I have seen Iranian drones and missiles flying at low altitude,” one stuck seafarer told the Seafarers’ Happiness Index, a project led by the Mission to Seafarers, an industry welfare association. “I also hear the sound of fighter jets, but we can’t identify which country they belong to.
If Prime Minister Mark Carney seriously wants to address Canada’s number one economic crisis – low productivity – he must scrap the anti-growth environmental polices of the Justin Trudeau government.
His major political opponents will be Trudeau-era Liberals and environmental activists, including the radical green groups Trudeau incorporated into his government.
One California grandmother has been waiting for answers since she was a child and her mother spotted a UFO hovering while she hung clothes out to dry. A therapist in Texas has been an “experiencer” since childhood. And another Lone Star resident, a 36-year-old musician, has been delving into the extraterrestrial world since he learned about an incident not far from his hometown.
All of them on Friday, like the rest of the “UFO community,” were waiting with bated breath for what was touted by the US government as a historic moment: The first release of never-before-seen files about unidentified anomalous phenomena, a trove of 162 documents including images, details and, enthusiasts hope, a step towards further transparency – and answers about what’s “out there”.
Ottawa’s much-touted “Buy Canadian” policy does not require companies to be Canadian-owned, allowing even 100% foreign-owned firms to qualify for federal contracts, according to newly disclosed records.
Blacklock’s Reporter says documents from the Department of Public Works show the definition of a “Canadian supplier” under Prime Minister Mark Carney’s policy is based on operational presence rather than ownership, meaning multinational corporations with a minimal footprint in Canada can still be deemed Canadian.
Keir Starmer is desperately fighting to subdue a Labour revolt tonight after a local elections bloodbath saw the party routed on English councils, and destroyed in Wales and Scotland.
Loyalist ministers and MPs have been deployed in a frantic bid to prop up the PM, after a series of backbenchers broke cover to demand his resignation.
So far no Cabinet ministers have publicly joined the mutiny – a moment that many believe would be the final nail in Sir Keir’s coffin.
Hoist by their own petard!

Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith loses nomination race for provincial byelection in Scarborough
“There was a ton of scrutineers in there, lots of stories about what’s happened inside, but I’ve got to debrief,” he said in the rainy parking lot of the school where the voting took place, after initially trying to dodge reporters.
“I’ve spoken to a few scrutineers already who said they’ve never seen anything like it, and it’s unreal what happened in there.”
“Squad” member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is under fire for radically rewriting history by claiming the American Revolution was all about fighting against “billionaires” — similar to the fight she and other fellow socialists are waging on capitalism.
“The American Revolution was against the billionaires of their time, and we are declaring independence from such an extreme marriage of wealth and the state,” claimed a clueless Ocasio-Cortez during an appearance Friday at the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics with longtime Democrat strategist David Axelrod.
