Two men who were the focus of a police search after an eight-year-old boy was assaulted at a Khalsa Day carnival attraction have been identified.
On April 19, in Surrey, the boy was assaulted inside the Kreepy Kastle, a haunted house attraction, police said. He escaped the two men to reach his family outside, but suffered injuries to his neck that required treatment at hospital.
The experiment is over, and the results are in: The British laboratory has blown up in the face of its creators. For decades, London has been the global capital of a specific, elitist delusion, according to which you could host any ideology, no matter how hostile to your way of life, and it would eventually be tamed by the sheer charm of the English Sunday roast and the rule of law. Complete nonsense, as it turns out.
Canadian intelligence and law enforcement officials say they are contending with a new form of violent extremist behaviour that’s mostly targeting youth and young adults online, known as “nihilistic violent extremism.”
The term was identified as a “new threat” within the expanding landscape of ideologically-motivated violent extremism in the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service’s (CSIS) latest annual report, released this month.
The report said CSIS has noted a growing trend of youth radicalization associated with violent nihilistic online groups like 764 and the Maniac Murder Cult, which have recently been listed as terrorist entities in Canada.
Most violent youth seem to belong to antifa.

A vast majority of Canadians, eight out of 10, still believe boycotting American goods and travel to the U.S. is helpful in strengthening Canada’s bargaining position, according to a new survey by Nanos for CTV News.
Fifty-three per cent of respondents believe a boycott is helpful, while 29 per cent believe it’s somewhat helpful.
It was a sentence I never thought I would hear myself uttering: ‘I think I’m going to vote for Spencer Pratt for Mayor of LA.’
At a dinner party in the Hollywood Hills last week, I imagined I would instantly be ridiculed by my (mostly) liberal friends for admitting that Pratt – best-known as the loudmouthed bad boy of the reality show The Hills – would get my vote to lead America’s second-largest city and the place I’ve called home for 30 years.
But instead of raised eyebrows, the reaction of the group I was with, which included a senior executive with one of Hollywood’s biggest studios, shocked me by backing the Republican candidate: ‘Oh yes, I might do too,’ the movie executive said, ‘After all, what do we have to lose?’
For years, the food industry assumed Canada’s protein future would be shaped by a dramatic shift toward veganism and strict plant-based eating. That future never arrived. Instead, Canadians have chosen something far more pragmatic and far more disruptive to the market: Flexibility.
The latest Canadian Food Sentiment Index from Dalhousie University’s Agri-Food Analytics Lab, supported by Caddle, shows a remarkable transformation in dietary behaviour among Canadian adults. Omnivorous diets, meaning consumers with no specific dietary restrictions, fell from 67.6% in fall 2024 to 55% in spring 2026.
President Donald Trump said Friday night that the United States military could decide to relocate the troops that are currently stationed in Germany and move them to Poland.
The president touted his friendship with the country’s leader, President Karol Nawrocki, who assumed office last year. The Pentagon previously indicated that the U.S. would move 5,000 troops from Germany in the next six to 12 months.
I’m told this country is Germany …
EDMONTON, CALGARY, MOSSLEIGH, LETHBRIDGE—I had known Mitch Sylvestre — the architect of the Alberta independence movement — for less than five minutes when he first implied King Charles might have him killed.
It was late February. We were in a loud coffee shop near the Alberta Legislature. He kept mouthing the words.
“The King! The King!”
But he wouldn’t say them out loud.
Thousands of young Germans are refusing to comply with a compulsory survey that could see them called up for military service, forcing the government to threaten fines and even jail time to enforce participation.
Since January, Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s government has sent more than 200,000 mandatory notices to 18-year-old men under a new system designed to rebuild the Bundeswehr. Recipients must provide details on their health, fitness, and willingness to serve—information that will be used to decide who is selected.
Pierre Poilievre’s speech to the conservative Canada Strong and Free Network conference in Ottawa on Thursday was a perfectly acceptable Opposition leader’s address.
Modestly delivered and modestly received, it had much to be modest about.
The problem was, it sounded like a reheated version of one of his speeches from last year’s election, a campaign in which he was rejected by voters who were apt to see him as too chippy and too negative.
Apollo astronauts landing on the moon saw unidentified flying objects (UFO) floating nearby on two seperate missions, newly released files reveal.
A photograph from the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, the last time humans set foot on the lunar surface, shows three mysterious dots in a triangular formation floating in the sky.
Another photograph taken from the surface of the moon during the Apollo 12 mission, in 1969, appeared to show a vertical blue hazy phenomenon passing by.
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney faced near-daily threats over his first 100 days in office, according to newly released government documents that show how a wave of threats against top political leaders carried over from the Justin Trudeau era.
Obtained under the federal Access to Information system, the documents list hundreds of “direct” and “indirect” threats recorded against the prime minister and members of the federal cabinet from 2022 to June 2025. Descriptions of each threat are blacked-out, leaving only the date and the “affected” figure for each one.
Trump survives multiple assassination attempts and the Star yawns.
Dr Anthony Fauci’s former top aide who allegedly worked to shield sensitive documents about COVID-19 from public view arrived in court on Friday to face federal charges.
Dr David Morens, 78, of Chester, Maryland, was indicted by the Department of Justice at the end of April for allegedly concealing falsified information to suppress alternative theories of COVID-19’s origins.
He served as a senior advisor to the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) from 2006 through 2022. Fauci was the agency’s director from 1984 to 2022.
OTTAWA – Standing in his office Friday morning, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith told Prime Minister Mark Carney that Canadians in her province, and industry stakeholders, are “getting a bit impatient” when it comes to plans to get major projects moving.
Speaking about the memorandum of understanding (MOU) – the energy co-operation pact outlining conditions for a new oil pipeline connecting Alberta to the Pacific Coast to proceed – Smith said the two parties have “had some really constructive conversations.”
But now, she has told Carney that “if we’re going to move forward with that MOU, I hope it happens in the next number of days.”
But there is hope allegedly …
Ottawa suggests letting cabinet green-light pipelines before technical assessments happen
The federal government is proposing reversing the order of pipeline approvals, allowing cabinet to green-light a new project prior to the completion of technical assessments and approvals.
The proposed changes come less than two months before Alberta is expected to submit a proposal for a new pipeline to the west coast.
The idea of switching the order of the approval process by giving it first to cabinet and then to the civil service for a technical review is included in a sweeping set of proposals released by Ottawa on Friday.
