Here’s the ‘experiment’ NDP Leader Avi Lewis is trying to run in Canadian politics

While standing outside the House of Commons, Avi Lewis recalled that it has been five decades since his grandfather — former federal NDP leader David Lewis — stood inside the chamber to advocate for the Canadian left.

After David, there was Avi’s father, Stephen Lewis, a former leader of the Ontario NDP, Canadian ambassador to the United Nations and a longtime journalist and environment activist. He passed away last month at 88, shortly after his son was elected federal NDP leader.

Now, it’s Avi Lewis’s turn to take on the mantle. And going the federal route is a very intentional choice.

My head hurts at the thought Canada is so fecked Lewis may strike a nerve.

Pope says ‘tyrants’ speech was not aimed at Trump

Pope Leo says he was not seeking to debate Donald Trump when he criticised “tyrants” for spending billions on wars in a speech earlier this week.

The pontiff said the remarks, delivered days after a high-profile spat with the US president, had been written a fortnight earlier – “well before the president ever commented on myself”.

“And yet as it happens, it was looked at as if I was trying to debate, again, the president, which is not in my interest at all,” he told reporters aboard a flight to Angola on Saturday.

Murder charges will be dropped against Kenneth Law; he will plead guilty to aiding suicide instead, lawyer says

An Ontario man accused of selling a toxic substance online to vulnerable people who used it to end their lives will no longer face murder charges and will instead plead guilty to 14 counts of aiding suicide, his lawyer says.

Kenneth Law, 60, has been publicly accused of running websites that shipped more than a thousand packages of deadly substances and other materials used for self-harm to more than 40 countries. Many of Law’s customers were young people who allegedly used the substance to end their lives; the Star has spoken to parents in Canada, the U.S., Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

I bet we find out this guy is the diversity added to Ontario’s MAID review board?

U.S. Military Prepares to Board Iran-Linked Ships in Coming Days, Officials Say

The U.S. military is preparing in coming days to board Iran-linked oil tankers and seize commercial ships in international waters, according to U.S. officials, expanding its naval crackdown beyond the Middle East.

The planning comes as the Iranian military continues to tighten its grip on the Strait of Hormuz, attacking several commercial vessels on Saturday as it declared the waterway was being “strictly controlled” by Iran. The developments sent shipping companies scrambling a day after Iran’s foreign minister said the strait was fully open to commercial traffic—an announcement that was welcomed by President Trump.

Overwhelming support among Iranian Canadians for regime change, community survey finds

Nine in ten Iranian Canadians “strongly or somewhat support regime change in Iran,” according to a new community survey.

The survey was conducted by the Metropolis Institute (a division of the Association for Canadian Studies) on behalf of the non-profit Advancement of Human Rights Organization for the Middle East (AHROME). Metropolis Institute distributed 1,768 surveys between March 29 and April 13, most of them at large Iranian community gatherings in Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal, and 1,166 were fully completed.

An Islamic religion teacher is accused of sexually abusing at least eight children in Germany. According to the prosecution, the 35-year-old is suspected of having abused boys in a student dormitory in Giengen an der Brenz, Baden-Württemberg, while working there, committing as many as 27 offences against at least eight victims between 2021 and 2024.

GOLDSTEIN: Climate hysteria wasted our money, failed to reduce need for fossil fuels

After almost four decades of climate alarmism the so-called “fight” against climate change has failed.

In 1990, the base year for the now long-forgotten Kyoto climate accord that was supposed to be the first step in saving the planet from catastrophic global warming, fossil fuels – oil, coal, natural gas – provided 87.38% of the world’s energy.

Groomers at Human Rights Museum says parental rights are ‘myths’ that harm ‘2SLGBTQI+’ youth

CALGARY — The Canadian Museum for Human Rights has launched a social media campaign targeting what it refers to as “myths” surrounding the growing parental rights movement in Canada.

The museum argues that many of the movement’s policies are rooted in “transphobia and homophobia,” posing serious threats to “2SLGBTQI+” youth.

Starmer and Macron vow to help open the Strait of Hormuz

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron — a.k.a., dumb and dumber, or gay and gayer, take your pick — have now agreed to lend their nations’ potent militaries to help open the Strait of Hormuz.

Unfortunately for them, and the dignity of the countries they allegedly lead, the U.S. has already opened the strait.

Even Iran has announced that the strait is now open.

Victor Davis Hanson says European leaders are now trying to take credit for what happened to Iran, calling it “shameless” after they stayed on the sidelines while the real work was done:

I think now that all the heavy lifting has been done and Iran is flat on its back, you’re… pic.twitter.com/yg6Vig9iSq

Indigenous elder tells UBC event she wishes to see academic Frances Widdowson raped

The University of British Columbia said it “does not condone” recent comments by a First Nations leader but did not indicate if it would take any action after the guest speaker at one of its events expressed her desire to see her political opponent get beaten and raped.

UBC’s response comes after Charlene Belleau, an elder in the Esk’etemc First Nation in B.C., appeared at a virtual event earlier this week hosted by Derek Thompson, the university’s Indigenous initiatives advisor. During the virtual talk, Belleau recalled comments she made toward Frances Widdowson, an academic focused on economics and Indigenous policy, when she had approached Widdowson in person at a campus event in late 2025.

Two-tier policing out in force in Epsom and Clapham

ON Wednesday, a group of mostly white working-class men protested against the ridiculous claim by Surrey Police that they do not have ‘sufficient information’ to describe the gang rapists of a woman outside Epsom Methodist Church on Saturday. The protesters were confronted by police in full riot gear.

Yet two weeks ago, hundreds of mostly non-white youths, organised on social media, swarmed Clapham High Street. They ran riot, jostled pedestrians, shoplifted, let off fireworks, blocked the streets, and assaulted first responders. A few police officers showed up to observe from their cars. Eventually 100 officers were deployed, of whom four were assaulted. They issued a dispersal order, and (later still) arrested three girls.

Such two-tier policing aggravates the tensions in Epsom.

The Fujian Connection: Canadian Election Interference Site, MSS Officer, and Convicted Snakehead John Chan — the Network Congress Is Now Pushing the IRS to Investigate

NEW YORK — In the final days of winter, in March 2019, Golden Imperial Court in Brooklyn staged a scene that carried extraordinary significance. At the head banquet table, raising a glass of red wine, was John Chan, the restaurant’s owner. Seated beside him was Li Qing, a younger man from China’s consulate in New York whose title was Overseas Chinese Affairs Officer. To Li’s right was the president of the Fuzhou Langqi Friendship Association, marked by a red sash across his chest.

CAIR Goes After Children Accused of ‘Blasphemy’ Against Islam

CAIR, an unindicted terrorist funding co-conspirator, whose chapter had previously targeted an art teacher in Minnesota over paintings of Mohammed, is now coming after a shark in sneakers and the children who enjoy spreading its memes on a gaming platform known as Roblox.

According to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), the shark in sneakers is guilty of blasphemy for saying “porco Allah” or “Allah is a pig”. And so are the kids spreading memes of the shark, better known as ‘Tralalero Tralalá’ chanting “Allah is a pig”. (It rhymes in Italian.)

No one says a thing about Porco Dio!
