US President Donald J. Trump’s negotiations and ceasefire deals with Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah are not seen by these actors as steps toward peace.
Rather, they are viewed by Tehran, Gaza and Beirut as infidels trying to tell Muslims what to do. For them, such a situation is unimaginable, unacceptable, and cannot be allowed to stand.
The number of people who enrolled in the Canadian military — both full-time and part-time — surged in the last fiscal year but despite the milestone the size of the Armed Forces has yet to reach targets set almost a decade ago.
Defence Minister David McGuinty announced Monday that 7,310 applicants were accepted into the regular force last year, surpassing the benchmark set by the Department of National Defence. It is apparently the highest number of people coming in off the street in more than three decades.

🚨 BOMBSHELL: James Bezan confirms the CAF is recruiting immigrants who can’t speak English or French. They wash out of basic training — then get housed in pop-up tent cities like a full-blown refugee camp.

Canadian psychologist and commentator Jordan Peterson has been battling a recurrence of akathisia, a neurological condition that causes restlessness and mental distress.
His daughter, Mikhaila, posted an emotional video to social media over the weekend, disclosing that the polarizing author’s symptoms started after he was diagnosed with chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS) last August from mold exposure.
Viktor Orbán’s fall from power in Hungary last weekend proves that even the most entrenched, politically captured states are not immortal.
Since 2010, Orbán’s Fidesz party machine has flexed an iron-grip on power. He did not head a fascist dictatorship or communist tyranny, but a regime that deliberately utilized the levers of the state to influence the media, NGOs, and other institutions.
What is it with Democrats and religion? We’ve heard plenty, and probably will hear plenty more from Texas state Rep. James Talarico (D-Texas) on his own twisted views of Christianity as he vies to move up to the varsity in Washington.
A man who said voices told him to randomly shoot two men on the streets of downtown Toronto in 2022 acted in a “rational, methodical and organized” manner, a judge concluded Monday, convicting Richard Edwin of two counts of first-degree murder.
“These acts appear to have been thought out and planned over time,” Superior Court Justice Jane Kelly said in front of the families of victims Kartik Vasudev and Elijah Mahepath.
Higher Ground, the dumb production company founded by Barry and Michelle Obama in 2018, is parting ways with Netflix.
After eight years under a lucrative first-look deal, Higher Ground and Netflix will not renew it when the deal expires at the end of 2026.
Gee, what a shame.
For a man so heavily invested in the United States, Mark Carney certainly wants us to fear the USA and to see it as a threat. The prime minister’s video address, released on Sunday, contained several warnings about being too close to the Americans.
He even invoked the War of 1812 while invoking the idea that we need to fight a common enemy today.
What’s it gonna take for the Elbow Zombies to wake up?
FBI Director Kash Patel said Sunday the bureau has gathered evidence supporting President Trump’s claim that the 2020 election was stolen, but that he is not ready to share any of the information because he does not want to get ahead of the investigation.
“We have the information that backs President Trump’s claim,” Mr. Patel said. “I can’t get ahead of the DOJ and the president, but President Trump, President Trump speaks truthfully when he says that.”
He urged viewers to “stay tuned this week. You might see a thing or two.”
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney would likely keep — and possibly enlarge — his new-found Liberal majority if a general election was held today, according to the latest projection from The Signal polling aggregator.
The latest forecast pegs the Liberals’ chances of winning a majority of seats in the House of Commons at 96 per cent, while the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre have a one per cent chance of clinching power, and only through a minority government.
This teaching method, pushed by conservatives, is on the rise
PALM BAY, Fla. — Seniors at Pineapple Cove Classical Academy draw upon the Bible and books from the Western canon to answer a quintessential question in their capstone project: What is the good life?
Children at the K-12 school learn Latin, engage in the Socratic method and write in cursive. The use of technology is rare. Students walk past paintings of historical scenes that include Betsy Ross sewing an American flag and down hallways lined with portraits of the Founding Fathers.
“We are going to honor the creation of our flag. We are going to honor George Washington,” Lisa Wheeler, principal of the Palm Bay campus, said of the school. She wants students to graduate with an “understanding of the Western civilization” and an appreciation for “the great people who founded our country.”
OMG! Those poor children will learn to think for themselves and be capable of making a contribution to society rather than become illiterate drooling multi-colored haired leftist weenies.
The idea keeps coming back. A French politician mused about it in Berlin last month. A Finnish leader visiting Ottawa this April didn’t dismiss it out of hand.
Fresh polls show a majority of Canadians would support it.
And in an era when the United States has turned on its closest allies, the question has acquired a new urgency: Could Canada join the European Union?
President Donald Trump rejected claims that Israel pressured the United States into initiating Operation Epic Fury, a joint operation that launched the Iran war in late February.
“Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday morning. “I watch and read the FAKE NEWS Pundits and Polls in total disbelief. 90% of what they say are lies and made up stories.”
Conservatives believe Canada is a country ready to build again. For too long, especially in our largest cities, young Canadians have watched governments make big announcements while the cost of living rises, opportunities narrow and major projects stall. After more than a decade of Liberal promises, overspending and delays, Canadians deserve a new approach that delivers real results people can actually afford.
US authorities have arrested an Iranian woman for trafficking arms to Sudan on behalf of her country, prosecutors have said.
Shamim Mafi, 44, who has an American green card, was arrested at Los Angeles airport on Saturday and is accused of “brokering the sale of drones, bombs, bomb fuses, and millions of rounds of ammunition manufactured by Iran and sold to Sudan”, First Assistant US Attorney Bill Essayli said on X.
The alleged sales were to Sudan’s defence ministry, including a €60m ($70m; £52m) drone contract, court documents show.
