Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said early during the trucker-led Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa that talking would not resolve it and he feared an “armed insurrection,” according to handwritten notes from his deputy chief of staff.
“PM: No. No to changing government policy. Their goal is to disrupt and undermine govt institutions,” read the notes of Brian Clow entered as evidence at the Emergencies Act inquiry on Nov. 10.
Twitter Inc’s new owner Elon Musk on Thursday raised the possibility of the social media platform going bankrupt, capping a chaotic day that included a warning from a U.S. privacy regulator and the exit of the company’s trust and safety leader.
The billionaire on his first mass call with employees said that he could not rule out bankruptcy, Bloomberg News reported, two weeks after buying it for $44 billion—a deal that credit experts say has left Twitter’s finances in a precarious position.
Is Ontario about to bring in a return of mandatory masking for indoor settings? Perhaps a better question is, does Ontario need to bring in mandatory masking for indoor settings?
Back in 2015, the Supreme Court justices who unanimously struck down the Criminal Code provision against medical assistance in dying (MAID) couldn’t foresee how Canada’s assisted dying program might evolve to the point it is today. I don’t mean that figuratively – in their written decision, they implied that they simply couldn’t see it happening.
People fought and died in WW II to extinguish the Mengeles of the world.
A security guard with a “hatred of the UK” who admitted spying for the Russians grew enraged at the flying of the rainbow flag at the British Embassy in Berlin in support of LGBT rights.
David Ballantyne Smith pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to eight charges of having “leaked details about the identities and activities of UK agents” to a Russian general.
He pleaded not guilty to a ninth charge of providing information about building repairs being carried out at the embassy.
It must be all that white privilege going around the country, but a recent survey showed that 1 in 6 hiring managers was asked not to hire white males. That’s the discriminatory behavior implemented in companies throughout the country, according to data from ResumeBuilder. It’s obviously discriminatory and violates federal laws, including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. However, such a report won’t receive widespread media scrutiny or the attention of politicians because, well, it is white males who are being discriminated against.
Hell that’s official policy in Canada.
When the dramatic account emerged last week of how the Duke of York had been reduced to tears when he was told by his brother Charles, then the Prince of Wales, that he would never return to public duties, it raised an intriguing question. Why had Prince Andrew not figured that out already?
He was, according to The Mail on Sunday, “blindsided” by the outcome of the meeting and “utterly bereft”. But ever since he had been forced to step down from royal duties there had been repeated reports that there was no way back for Andrew. Was he the only person in the country not to have got the message?
THE great aim of the technocratic left-wing elites in the West is to bring an end to the independence of nation states and effectively rule the world through supranational bodies with the assistance of large-scale lobbying groups and authoritarian Big Tech corporations. In The Communist Manifesto of 1848, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels were open about wanting to abolish countries and nationalities and, whether today’s globalist politicians know it or not, they are still working from that playbook – and have managed to drag much of the so-called centre ground with them. Crucial to this idea is the modern bien pensant obsession with open borders and maintaining high levels of unsustainable immigration.
One morning in the next few months, a 98-year-old man living somewhere near Coburg, in Bavaria, may be visited by the ghosts of the distant past.
Nearly eight decades ago he is believed to have joined the SS, Nazi Germany’s sprawling paramilitary apparatus of terror, which posted him to the Ravensbrück concentration camp in April 1943.
Local prosecutors are weighing up whether to charge the man, whose identity has not been made public, with aiding and abetting hundreds of murders that took place within the camp’s barbed wire perimeter over the following two years.
Way back in March of 2019, I proposed the idea that, similar to the BLAXIT movement, American Jews needed to remove themselves from the Democratic Party, which no longer exemplifies Jewish values, no longer supports Israel, and is controlled by leftist extremists who are anti-Semitic. Although slower than hoped for, it looks like this might finally be happening.
Believe it when you see it and even then double check.
The actions of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have been questionable as of late under the leadership of Christopher Wray.
We could dive back into the way the bureau acted upon raiding former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate earlier this year. But their actions go much deeper, with reports about surveillance and even spying on emails of private American citizens in the hopes of finding criminal activity.
Having delivered his platitudes on climate change at Cop27, Rishi Sunak returns to a more pressing problem: how to keep Britain’s lights on this winter. Last week it was revealed that the government has been wargaming a ‘reasonable worst-case scenario’ in which blackouts last up to a week. Whether those fears prove unfounded or not, there is a huge and growing hole in the future of Britain’s electricity supply, with little to explain how it will be filled. The lights might not go out this winter, but there is a reckoning coming as Britain attempts to steer towards net zero.
Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert (CO) slightly padded her lead against Democrat Adam Frisch in an unexpectedly tight race to represent Colorado’s Third Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
A guide to contemporary doomsday scenarios — from the threats you know about to the ones you never think of
A few days before NASA tried to crash a spacecraft into an asteroid as part of what it called the Double Asteroid Redirection Test, I talked to Lindley Johnson, the agency’s planetary defense officer. I think we can all agree that this sounds like an important job.
The planetary defense officer focuses on the detection of dangerous asteroids and comets that might threaten the Earth (as in the movies “Don’t Look Up” and “Armageddon” and “Deep Impact”), and explores technologies for preventing such a thing from happening. This job is not to be confused with the NASA planetary protection officer, who is supposed to keep Earth’s microbes from contaminating other worlds or hypothetical alien microbes from coming to Earth, as in “The Andromeda Strain.”
Canada’s top public health doctor says wearing masks in addition to other precautions could make it easier for hospitals to cope with a surge of respiratory viruses.
Some doctors, scientists and hospital officials in Ontario and Manitoba have asked public health officials to bring back mask mandates as hospitals are overwhelmed by cases of flu, COVID-19 and respiratory syncytial virus or RSV.
