We Really Can Get Rid of the United Nations Now

Hypocrisy — and amnesia — continues to reign among the kleptocrats in Turtle Bay.

If ever there was any doubt as to the utterly worthless character of the United Nations — the universe’s premier wretched hive of scum and villainy — that was put to bed on Wednesday of last week.

The end, not that there shouldn’t already have been an end, came when the successor regime to the West African Ashanti Kingdom — that being the nation of Ghana — proposed a resolution indicating that the trans-Atlantic slave trade from the 15th through the 19th centuries was the worst sin against humanity, and called for reparations to be paid.

Mulcair: Avi Lewis has big ideas. In politics, that’s not enough

For dreams to become reality, you first must get elected. That’s going to be a challenge for the NDP’s new leader.

The NDP put its best foot forward at last weekend’s convention, and the opening speech by Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew was a highlight.

Deeply experienced and wise, Kinew represents the best of the NDP. He shone in both official languages, very much at ease on his home turf in Winnipeg.

His speech contained a strong message of hope, as one would expect.

Is “White Supremacy” Causing an “Epidemic” of Transgender Murders?

The Human Rights Campaign thinks so, but its own data undermine that narrative.

Today, on International Transgender Day of Visibility, advocates will likely claim that transgender people are facing an “epidemic” of deadly violence driven by white supremacy, transphobia, and politicization by the far Right. For more than a decade, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) has pushed this narrative, publishing annual “Epidemic of Violence” reports documenting transgender homicide victims in the United States. Relying on the HRC’s analysis, activists, presidents, members of Congress, the American Medical Association, celebrities, journalists, and scholars have repeated the HRC’s claims so often that for many they feel like established facts.

Stellantis in Talks to Make Chinese EVs at Idled Canadian Plant

Stellantis NV is discussing options for building electric vehicles in Canada with its Chinese partner, Zhejiang Leapmotor Technology Co., according to people familiar with the matter, a sign of how quickly the auto industry is being reshaped after Canada opened the door to companies from the world’s largest car market.

The talks are in an early stage, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing information that’s not public. If the companies proceed, it would be the first major Chinese auto investment in Canada since Prime Minister Mark Carney reached an agreement with President Xi Jinping in January to reduce tariffs on Chinese-made EVs.

A Free World Opportunity

In the turmoil of revolutions and the fall of empires, history sometimes seems to extend a helping hand: the opportunity, in this instance, to end at least one expansionist movement that has been threatening the West. The possible destruction of the mullahs’ regime in Iran would not merely represent a geopolitical victory; it would mark the dawn of an era in which the idea that all human societies must be governed by Allah’s law and not by men could finally be escorted back to where it came from.

Nolte: Fearing a Flop, ‘Supergirl’ Star Milly Alcock pre-Blames Sexist Superhero Fans

Milly Alcock, who stars in the title role of this summer’s upcoming Supergirl movie, is already pre-blaming sexist superhero fans in the event her movie tanks at the box office.

There is honestly no other way to interpret her stupid remarks in Vanity Fair. Her blockbuster movie comes out in June, and she’s already bracing herself for the attacks (that will never come), and comparing what she expects to her experience starring in the HBO Game of Thrones prequel series, House of the Dragon.

Another Rachel Zegler!

Provincial rules around alcohol and the federal government’s “Buy Canadian” policy have been flagged in a new report citing several trade irritants between Canada and the U.S.

The annual document prepared by the Office of the United States Trade Representative said market access barriers imposed by provincial liquor control boards “greatly hamper” exports of U.S. wine, beer and spirits to Canada.

RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme now says he’ll admit foreign states continue to harass, intimidate Canadians if that’s what it takes to shut you crybabies up

The RCMP is clarifying previous comments from Commissioner Mike Duheme, saying the police organization is aware of incidents of intimidation and harassment by foreign states, but is unable to identify current criminal links.

“What we can say is that the RCMP is aware of complaints of intimidation and harassment against certain communities across Canada. The RCMP, and the broader Government of Canada, is also aware that foreign states are engaging in such activities in Canada,” the RCMP told CTV News in a statement on Wednesday.


This guy works for Carney and his foreign pals not for us.

Europe Needs to Hear This Harsh Truth

Shipping and military expert John Konrad spent all day in D.C. on Tuesday talking to his military sources and concluded that “the Navy appears to be in no rush to reopen the strait,” even while Iran dictates whose oil tankers are allowed to pass.

“What is this administration trying to leverage?” Konrad wondered, and that nobody he talked to was willing to discuss the fate of Hormuz “until European politicians and media stop calling Americans war criminals and monsters.”

Alberta government says new bill intended to remove politics, ideology from schools

Typical graduates of teacher’s colleges.

The Alberta government says new legislation would require teachers and school boards to be “neutral” and “impartial” when delivering lessons and crafting a school environment.

Bill 25, An Act to Remove Politics and Ideology from Classrooms and Amend the Education Act, will also bar the display of any flags inside or outside schools, other than the flags of Alberta and Canada, with some exemptions to be revealed later.

Education and Childcare Minister Demetrios Nicolaides tabled the omnibus education bill in the legislature on Tuesday.

London on alert for teen mob chaos: Met deploys more police over fears of fresh Easter holiday ‘linkups’

Scotland Yard has deployed more police amid fears teen mobs will once again descend on town centres in a repeat of last night’s chaos in Clapham.

Today, senior Conservatives demanded ‘mass arrests’ after hundreds of teenagers flooded into the plush south-west London neighbourhood as part of an Easter holiday ‘linkup’ promoted on social media.

More than 300 teenagers gathered on the Clapham Common baseball courts before swarming the High Street to steal from shops, attack police and fight amongst themselves – as terrified families barricaded themselves inside supermarkets.
