It’s obvious where Mark Carney stands on forced labour in China

Prime Minister Mark Carney is not oblivious.

He knows, as any reasonable person would, that it looks terrible for one of his MPs to try to undermine an expert witness on forced labour in China during a parliamentary committee meeting.
Last week, Liberal MP Michael Ma grilled Margaret McCuaig-Johnston, a senior fellow at the University of Ottawa, about whether she has personally seen forced labour practices on the ground in

China. “Have you witnessed forced labour in Xinjiang?” Mr. Ma asked Ms. McCuaig-Johnston, as if foreign nationals are invited to privately interview Uyghurs working on factory floors. “Yes or no? So did you get that from hearsay?”

Black businessman bullied into dumping plans for new nightclub after white, liberal women told him the name was RACIST

Outraged White Liberal Women

A black Kansas City businessman has been forced to scrap his plans to open a new nightclub after a local football fan club comprised mainly of liberal white women complained that the name was ‘racist.’

Casio McCombs said this week he was ‘deeply disappointed’ that his plans to open a club named Sundown HiFi were halted due to outcry from KC Blue Crew, a supporters club for women’s soccer team KC Current.

The ‘sundown’ name was deemed by the group to be a reference to a ‘sundown town’, a 19th Century term for all-white communities that would practice racial segregation and terrorize any black people unfortunate enough to find themselves on its streets after dark.

ER doctors face threats, harassment for blowing the whistle on dangerous overcrowding

Canada’s emergency doctors are demanding better protection against administrative harassment and bullying for speaking out about dangerous overcrowding and unreported deaths in the country’s emergency rooms.

Among other measures, the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians is calling for “effective and enforced” whistleblower protection, arguing they risk personal and professional persecution for calling out unsafe conditions that are putting lives at risk.

Without the US, Nato is left naked

It would be the biggest divorce in history. For eight decades, Nato has weathered internal disputes, enemy plots and shooting wars in Bosnia, Kosovo and Afghanistan.

But if Donald Trump acts on his threat to finally leave, having told The Telegraph he is strongly considering pulling out after allies failed to join his war on Iran, the transatlantic family will be torn asunder. At which point, the club that calls itself the most successful alliance in history may as well close its doors. And the pain could match that of the most acrimonious breakups.

Watchdog finds little oversight over multi-billion-dollar Indigenous procurement program

Indian Money Dance

The federal government repeatedly ignored key safeguards meant to ensure that legitimate Indigenous businesses would benefit from a multi-billion-dollar procurement program, a watchdog’s investigation has shown.

In a report made public Thursday, the Office of the Procurement Ombud said Indigenous Services Canada showed a “systemic disregard” for the principles behind the Procurement Strategy for Indigenous Business (PSIB), repeatedly failed to verify companies awarded work were Indigenous-owned, and failed to keep track of how the decades-old program actually benefitted Indigenous businesses.

Syrian Leader Contradicts Merz on Migrant Returns

The German chancellor said up to 80% of Syrians could return within three years, citing Damascus—an account now disputed.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s claim that Syria supports large-scale returns of its nationals has been contradicted by the country’s interim president.

The German chancellor stated in Berlin, alongside Syrian interim president Ahmed al-Sharaa, that around 80% of the Syrians currently living in Germany should return to Syria within three years. It was the central figure in the CDU’s new narrative: migration toughness, Syrian reconstruction ,and the recovery of political control after a decade of crisis.

Acquittal! A ‘bad mood’ now a legitimate legal defense for murder

 

Last August, law enforcement in the German state of Saarland responded to a call of armed robbery at a local convenience store, where they came upon the suspect, a knife-wielding Turkish teenager who’d just bagged around €600—the teen attacked and during the scuffle, “seized a service weapon from a trainee, and opened fire.” (I would like to know if that “trainee” who couldn’t keep hold of the firearm was a woman.) Ahmet G., the 19-year-old miscreant, hit 34-year-old Police Chief Inspector Simon Bohr with a spray of bullets, and Bohr died at the scene after being shot in “the head, face, neck, shoulder, abdomen, and back.” Bohr also left behind a wife and child(ren).

‘I Am the Living Proof’: The Uyghur Survivor, the Slave Compound, and the Forced Labor System Carney Cannot Escape

TORONTO — His dark eyebrows bunched in memory of the shocking pain, Sulayman makes a sharp buzzing sound and jabs his inner wrist with a small cup, demonstrating how he was electrocuted by Chinese gangsters in a slave cyber-scam compound in Cambodia. It is a similar expression — pain, disbelief, disgust — that shapes his face when asked to describe to Prime Minister Mark Carney and Liberal Member of Parliament Michael Ma his prior lived experience, and that of his older relatives, and of Uyghurs across Xinjiang, working in forced labor factories and farms under the yoke of China’s police state.
