If the Carney government truly wanted to save the Stellantis plant in Brampton, it would be spending more time focused on Washington, D.C.
Canada’s entire auto industry relies on access to the American market, and for nearly two years that access has been in doubt.
Worth watching

Vice President JD Vance isn’t out of the 2028 presidential race — at least not yet.
Detractors and even some well-wishers began writing his political obituary after Republicans’ historic drubbing in the midterm elections, surmising that the vice president — tied to a president with an all-time low approval rating — sees the 2028 election as a lost cause.
Hackers recently reprogrammed freezers that store blood samples for France’s national blood service, with units normally kept at -30 C manipulated to reach 110 C. Blood literally boiled. It was France’s second such attack in a month. On Oct. 11, hackers took over refrigeration controls at roughly 700 supermarkets and pushed temperatures to 50 C for about six hours, spoiling thousands of pounds of food.
A freezer doesn’t need the internet to stay cold. Someone decided it would be convenient to manage freezers remotely, and that undoubted convenience became hackers’ way in. The same logic applies to our electricity grid, and a grid failure in Canada in February is far more dangerous than a warm freezer.
A group of armed men rushed a campaign event in Nigeria on Thursday, attacking journalists and supporters of opposition candidate Peter Obi at a political rally two months before the country’s January 16, 2027, presidential election.
Videos uploaded to social media captured the mid-morning incident, showing men armed with axes, clubs and machetes barging into an event center in Lagos, where they attacked supporters of Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate Obi.
Supporters, who vowed they would not be intimidated, blamed the attack on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). APC spokesman Felix Morka rejected the claim, citing a lack of evidence.
An Ontario career college with four campuses saw the amount of students receiving financial aid explode over a few years, including an increase of nearly 6,000 per cent at one campus, but it was not one of the schools the government cut off this spring.
The Canadian College of Business, Science and Technology, with campuses in the Greater Toronto Area, had 562 students accessing the Ontario Student Assistance Program in 2021-22, and three years later that number was 17,157, according to data obtained by The Canadian Press through a freedom-of-information request.
That is an increase of nearly 3,000 per cent.
Sure Dougie ….
Ontario to cap OSAP growth at career colleges following massive increases
Career colleges in Ontario could soon be subject to limits on the growth of students funded by financial aid, following explosive increases in the sector that prompted the government to call in the police.
Colleges and Universities Minister Nolan Quinn announced that legislation will be introduced on Monday, saying the significant concerns around Ontario Student Assistance Program usage in the sector are far more widespread than first suspected and the bill is intended to increase oversight and accountability.
Rod Dreher’s Law of Merited Impossibility states: “It will never happen, and when it does, you bigots will deserve it.”
With this formulation, the conservative writer was trying to capture the duplicitous hedge by which progressives advance their policy goals: we have no plans for radical social change but it would serve you right if we did.
The Welsh Parliament’s decision to silence Reform MS Joe Martin for his comments on demographic change ventures a new sub-section for Dreher’s law: “The thing that is not happening is such a good thing that you must not be allowed to talk about it.”
On the eve of Remembrance Day, Canadians learned that their army is cutting reserve employment, cancelling training exercises, and reducing opportunities for part-time soldiers. This comes as Ottawa promises unprecedented defence spending and military expansion. The contradiction is staggering, and the consequences could be devastating.
Across Africa, Britain has been called an oppressor and confronted with demands for slavery reparations.
But one nation is celebrating the British Empire as a liberator.
Malawi suffered from the brutality of Arab slavery, with its people captured by rival tribes and shipped to the Middle East, part of a 1,200-year-long traffic in human commodities that is often overshadowed by Europe’s transatlantic trade.
Today, we’re going to tell you the story of Emma Roark, a young, white autistic girl whose body was found hanging from a tree. The chances of you ever hearing about this story are pretty slim. It happened four years ago in California, and the reason it’s making the rounds again online is because of the “lynching hoax” the American people have been bombarded with.
I bet you never heard this story…
Emma Roark, a white girl with autism, was on a stroll in a park in January of 2022.
While on her walk, Emma was raped and then lynched by Mikilo Morgan Rawls, a homeless recidivist offender in Rancho Cordova, CA.
She was found hanging in a tree.

Automaker Stellantis says it will pay back $24 million in federal subsidies after it announced plans to sell its Brampton, Ont., assembly plant — but Industry Minister Mélanie Joly says the company owes far more than what it is offering.
The company announced Monday that it plans to sell the Brampton facility to armoured vehicle manufacturer Roshel Inc., which the federal government says is in violation of a 2022 agreement that put up millions in subsidies to help retool the plant
This sounds like Stellantis just told Joly to take a Flying F…
An Afghan migrant accused of raping an autistic schoolgirl in a train toilet ‘used her to satisfy himself’, a court has heard.
Baryalai Rahimi and Mirebadurahman Sadat are on trial for attacking the runaway 14-year-old on a London-bound service from Kent on February 5 this year.
Jurors at Inner London Crown Court earlier heard that Rahimi raped the girl three times in the train toilets, while Sadat, 29, is said to have assaulted the teenager twice.
OTTAWA — NDP Leader Avi Lewis has received RCMP protection for weeks, the Star has learned, becoming the latest Canadian political leader grappling with security concerns.
Lewis was observed by the Star on at least three occasions last week being escorted by officers in Ottawa. He was seen with up to three non-uniformed security personnel, both within and outside the Parliament Hill area.

One of my favourite questions we ask in our regular Abacus Data national tracking surveys is also one of the simplest:
“What is most likely keeping you up at night?”
We don’t give people a list of possible answers. We don’t ask them to choose between the economy, healthcare, Donald Trump, or climate change. We simply ask the question and let people tell us, in their own words, what’s worrying them.
