Provincial health officials confirmed 2,557 new cases of the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, up from 2,333 on Wednesday and 2,336 on Tuesday.

It is the highest daily case count recorded since January 22, which 2,662 new infections were logged.

Ontario hits ‘emergency brake’ as province enters month-long COVID shutdown

“The entire province will move to emergency brake shutdown,” a senior government source said Wednesday night speaking on condition of anonymity.

Premier Doug Ford will announce that the measures take effect at the end of Friday, at midnight, with a new wrinkle — non-essential retail stores can remain open at 25 per cent capacity.

But despite the improving spring weather, some freedoms will disappear.

“No more patios, no more indoor dining anywhere,” said the source, adding barbershops, hair and nail salons now open in parts of the province not under lockdown will have to close.

Race-obsessed Loudon County school teacher schooled by mellow teen

There are so many true and rotten things one can say about progressive values, but I think most will agree that one of the worst things progressives do is attack boys. There’s a reason for this: If raised right, boys are hardwired for courage. We see this in a wonderful way in a video someone posted showing an unknown teen in Loudon County, Virginia (which is famous for canning Dr. Seuss and trying to dox “white supremacist” parents) politely refusing to go along with his white teacher’s insistent racism.

Islam’s trouble with freedom

AFTER the end of the First World War, Churchill said: ‘The whole map of Europe has been changed . . . but as the deluge subsides and the waters fall short we see the dreary steeples of Fermanagh and Tyrone emerging once again.’

As we start to leave the societal deep freeze of the past year, we could be forgiven for thinking something similar about the equally relentless sectarian troubles between the Western world and the large – and rapidly growing – Muslim minorities within it.

Africa’s “Bigger Slave Problem” – More pressing than Democrats’ quest for reparations.

Africa is again the world’s epicenter of modern-day slavery

Last year Joe Biden said African Americans who don’t support him “ain’t black,” but this year the Delaware Democrat is open to reparations for slavery, America’s “original sin,” according to the composite character president David Garrow described in Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama. A neglected historical account provides enlightenment on slavery’s true origins and its most enduring practitioners.

In 1856, British Army officer John Hanning Speke set out to find the source of the Nile. Speke’s massive Journal of the Discovery of the Source of the Nile documents the African societies he found, and the widespread practice of slavery. “To catch slaves is the first thought of every chief in the interior,” Speke wrote, “Hence fights and slavery impoverish the land.”

Vermont Professor: I stand by my anti-whiteness video

Over the past year, the culture wars have been raging and one of the places where they have been fought most fiercely is on American college campuses. Efforts to ‘decolonise the curriculum’ and censor professors and students found to be deviating from progressive orthodoxy on identity issues have intensified, particularly on liberal college campuses.

At last, the myth of ‘institutional racism’ is collapsing

No10’s review into racial disparities is a brilliant blow against the preposterous and divisive politics of identity.

The response to No10’s review into racial disparities in the UK has been truly disturbing. Labour, the radical left, the broadsheet press and the BBC — some of whose talking heads have spent the entire day looking and sounding bewildered — have reacted with horror to the suggestion that the UK is not actually a racist country. ‘What do you mean Brits aren’t a disgusting, hateful throng?’, the great and good have essentially cried. This could prove to be one of the most revealing moments in the contemporary culture wars.

Tom Hanks’s son criticized for using ‘racist’ font on merchandise collection

Chet Hanks, son of the Hollywood actor Tom Hanks, has been criticized for using a “racist” font on his new collection of merchandise which is also controversially called White Boy Summer.

His black and white range of clothes, which include hoodies, T-shirts, shorts, tank tops, leggings, caps and bike shorts, has been called out online for its use of a Gothic-style font that is close to the one used by white nationalists. It’s also similar to the Fraktur fonts, which were used in Nazi Germany most prominently on the cover of Hitler’s Mein Kampf book.

Here’s what we know about the reported federal investigation into Matt Gaetz

Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz said he is being investigated for alleged criminal sexual activity with a minor and claims a former Department of Justice official is behind a $25 million plot to extort him and his family.

The 38-year-old congressman is being eyed as part of a broader investigation into Joel Greenberg, a political ally who was indicted in 2020 on charges including sex trafficking of a minor and financially supporting people in exchange for sex, at least one of whom was an underage girl, the New York Times reported.

“I was not a target but a subject of an investigation regarding sexual conduct with women,” Gaetz said.

New video shows George Floyd acting peculiar in store before death

George Floyd “appeared to be high” when he handed over a counterfeit $20 bill in a Minneapolis convenience store, a clerk testified Wednesday — as never-before-seen surveillance footage shows him acting peculiar moments before his fatal confrontation with police.

The newly-released video from May 25, aired Wednesday during the murder trial of ex-Minneapolis cop Derek Chauvin, shows an animated Floyd inside the Cup Foods store with two companions, dancing and acting boisterous.

‘Medical battery’: Ontario threatened with lawsuit over four month delay for COVID booster shot

Two Ontario seniors are threatening to take Canada’s pandemic authorities to court over the country’s unprecedented decision to prescribe four-month gaps between doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.

The pair provided written consent for their first dose in early March, when official Ontario guidelines said that the vaccine comprised “2 doses given 21 days apart.”
