Ontario claims $75M stolen in ‘kickback schemes’ run by alleged ringleader of COVID-19 fraud

The Ontario government is alleging that as much as $75 million in taxpayers’ money was stolen as part of elaborate “kickback schemes” in the awarding of computer contracts.

In a dramatic expansion of the province’s civil case against the ex-bureaucrat accused in the alleged $11 million theft of COVID-19 relief funds, the Crown claims at least nine others are involved in a separate “conspiracy” dating back more than a decade.

“The plaintiff (the Ontario government) paid out approximately $40 million pursuant to FFSCs (fee-for-service contracts) resulting from the kickback schemes. The secret commissions totalled approximately $35 million,” government lawyers say in Ontario Superior Court civil filings.

Georgia Should Crush Antifa Without Mercy

The Atlanta insurrection is the Münster rebellion all over again, and it ought to be dealt with similarly.

Let me state at the outset that my faith in Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, who seems like the ultimate Good Time Charlie of American politics, to do what is necessary to successfully deal with what’s happening in Atlanta is … limited.

I’m being kind.

The Trans Movement’s Long War with Nature

There is an illusion in our political culture that our deepest debates could be resolved if only one side or the other would resile their private, inexpert opinions and submit to the facts, the experts, and the guidance of technocrats from the relevant fields.

Biden Admin Blasts Florida for Rejecting “Rape the White Girls” Poet

“Rape the white girls. Rape / their fathers. Cut the mothers’ throats.”

The media is still attacking Gov. DeSantis for rejecting an AP African-American class over BLM, queer theory, police defunding and general racism. The governor’s people have yet to note that it includes the writings of domestic terrorist Angela Davis or racist Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Swedish PM Addresses Continued Wave of Bombings, Shootings, and Deaths

Following the spiral of violence witnessed since Christmas which so far has seen some 20 shootings and explosive detonations across Sweden—mainly in the Stockholm area—that have resulted in at least two people losing their lives, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) called this past weekend’s wave of violence as “among the worst” to hit the country in a “very long time.”

While speaking to the Swedish state-run broadcaster Sveriges Television (SVT) on Monday, January 24th, the center-Right prime minister, who only assumed high office several months ago, did not mince his words, referring to those responsible for the violence, namely gang-related groups, “the domestic terrorists of our time.”

Rogue AI ‘could kill everyone’

A rogue artificial intelligence system could kill everyone and the technology must be regulated in a similar way to nuclear weapons, MPs have been told.

Researchers from Oxford University told the science and technology committee that AI could eventually pose an “existential threat” to humanity. Just as humans wiped out the dodo, the machines might eradicate us, they said.

Inside a Nuclear War Bunker Built to Save Canada’s Leaders

OTTAWA — Shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine last year, Christine McGuire’s museum began receiving inquiries unlike anything she’d previously encountered during her career.

“We had people asking us if we still functioned as a fallout shelter,” said Ms. McGuire, the executive director of Diefenbunker: Canada’s Cold War Museum. “That fear is still very real for people. It seems to have come back into the public psyche.”

The Diefenbunker still has most of the form and features of the nuclear fallout shelter it once was for Canadian government and military V.I.P.s. But the underground complex, decommissioned in 1994, has shifted from being a functioning military asset to being a potent symbol of a return to an age when the world’s destruction again seems a real possibility with a nuclear-armed Russia raising the specter of using the weapons.

In Ukraine, it appears America will soon be arming both side’s combatants

I happen to be one who believes that the escalating war in Ukraine is entirely Biden’s fault, that the current Ukraine government is completely corrupt, and that the entire thing, which has seen tens of thousands of Ukrainian deaths and the destruction of large swaths of that country, has become a profitable boondoggle for politicians and military contractors. Call me cynical or naïve, but that’s where I am. I also think the whole enterprise has taken on a truly hallucinatory quality, exacerbated by the news today: Putin is negotiating to buy abandoned American weapons from Afghanistan while Biden is sending 31 Abrams tanks to Ukraine. We will have armed both sides to the battle.

Furries vs feminists: a new nadir for the trans lobby

Next month, followers of what is known as the ‘furry fandom’ will descend on Glasgow for the ‘ScotiaCon’ convention, Scotland’s leading get-together for furries. Furries are people who identify with and often dress as anthropomorphised cartoon animals. At a glance, you could be forgiven for thinking that furries were children’s entertainers. But please, don’t try to book one for your kid’s birthday party.

What’s the truth about casualty numbers in Ukraine?

Inaccurate and piecemeal information has been a fixture of this war

The Russia-Ukraine war looks set to be one of the bloodiest in modern history. Even by conservative estimates, both sides are losing hundreds of soldiers per day, putting it within the top 10% of deadliest wars since 1812.

Over the past week, two major military figures in the West appeared to confirm the scale of suffering. Last Friday, Norway’s Chief of Defence, General Eirik Kristoffersen, claimed that Russia has endured 180,000 casualties to Ukraine’s 100,000 (plus another 30,000 Ukrainian civilian casualties). Meanwhile, U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said on Friday that Russian casualties are “significantly well over 100,00 now.” The Sun reports American intelligence services suggesting this figure is around 188,000.

Diane Francis: Justin Trudeau Liberals keep proving they are amateurs

In recent days, eye-popping reports about Canada’s unusable tanks and about its over reliance on outside contractors came to light, underscoring the incompetence of the Justin Trudeau Liberal regime in Ottawa.

First, Ukraine is asking countries with German-made Leopard 2 tanks to donate them so it can mount a critically important counter-offensive this spring to drive the Russians out of their country. Kyiv needs 300 of these battle tanks, and nations are stepping up, but Canada, with 82 tanks, has not responded yet. Reports by the Canadian Forces College in 2018 and 2022 say the tanks have been neglected and are useless.

‘Evidence of a genocide’ found during search of Alta. residential school: First Nation investigators

An organization investigating unmarked graves near a residential school in eastern Alberta says it has uncovered “physical and documented evidence of a genocide.”

The Acimowin Opaspiw Society (AOS) released details of its preliminary report Tuesday into “missing children and unmarked burials” at Blue Quills Residential School.

“The investigation’s theory regarding the missing children of the Saddle Lake site, is that they are buried in undocumented mass graves,” the report states.

Canada considering sending 4 Leopard tanks to Ukraine: sources

Canada is considering contributing four Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, senior sources told CBC News — but no decision has been made.

The government could announce the donation of tanks as early as Thursday, the sources said.

CBC News is not identifying the confidential sources because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Do we even have 4 working tanks?

Adam Zivo: How Canada sabotaged its own fleet of tanks

When asked last week about whether Canada will send tanks to Ukraine, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said, “We’re not there yet.” As it turns out, maybe the reason we aren’t “there” is because a decade of neglect has rendered a significant portion of our tanks inoperable.
