Three years after the Hamas-led October 7, 2023 massacre in Israel, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), the second-largest terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip, is making one thing clear: it has no intention of abandoning its armed struggle against Israel.
On the contrary, the Iran-backed terrorist organization is reaffirming its commitment to jihad (holy war), armed resistance, and the destruction of what it calls the “Zionist project.”
A representative for the Canadian steel industry says he worries that U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs are here to stay for the “long term” as he urged the federal government to strengthen Buy Canadian rules to support the industry.
Speaking at the Senate’s foreign affairs committee Thursday, John Cuddihy, a vice president with the Canadian Steel Producers Association, said the American steel industry has profited greatly from Trump’s trade war with Canada.
An invocation beginning an Iowa city council meeting Tuesday began with “Dear dark father” and ended with “Hail, Satan,” prompting a pastor to speak up and call to “reverse” the curse on his city.
“An invocation at the beginning of Tuesday’s Ottumwa City Council meeting overshadowed everything else that took place over the course of 80 minutes,” The Ottumwa Courier reported Wednesday
The Brad Bradford campaign said Toronto’s incumbent mayor has a lot to answer for after an advocacy group accused ATU Local 113 of paying for TTC workers it represents to canvass for Olivia Chow.
“Unions are entitled to support candidates. That’s not the issue,” Laryssa Waler, a representative for the campaign, said in a statement.
Communism. The outcome never changes.
A woman in Toledo, Ohio, used a shotgun to fend off two men who police say were fighting a member of her family.
Officers responded to a home on Pinewood Avenue, not far from the city’s downtown, early Tuesday morning, where they found the woman holding a shotgun… and holding two young men at bay.
Even as more Canadians turn to them for help, food banks and shelters say they’re struggling to keep up with a new survey showing some are having to turn people away.
The State of Food Charity in Canada, produced by the National Network of Non-Profits and conducted by Ipsos, shows 89 per cent of non-profits across the Second Harvest network saw an increase in demand for food in the past year.
If you could sum up the appalling United Kingdom immigrant invasion in one story, this one would be it.
Mohammed Abbas, a man whose name evokes two men of less-than-impeccable character, is a one-man wrecking ball for any civilized society.
We’ll never know the total cost Canadians paid to fund former prime minister Justin Trudeau’s failed climate change policies that Prime Minister Mark Carney has largely abandoned.
That’s because in addition to the upfront costs, there were the lost opportunity costs caused by putting a damper on the expansion of Canada’s oil and natural gas sectors for a decade.
Young teenagers are less likely to identify as lesbian, gay or bisexual than they were a few years ago, according to a new analysis of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data.
The decline is particularly striking among ninth-grade girls, according to Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University who published her analysis of the 2025 data on her Substack “Generation Tech.” In 2021, 30 percent of ninth-grade girls identified as lesbian or bisexual. Last year, 17 percent did.
“It really does look like a free fall,” Twenge said. “But what’s causing it is unclear.”
My guess is the kids learned to recognize grooming after the Trannies showed up.
France has entered its third week of unrest, ostensibly over a lack of funding for schools. In a quest for better classroom conditions, students blockading their school in the north-central region Beaugency last week chanted along to M*R*H,* a song by the rapper Boro700. The title bears the initials of Mohamed Merah, the French-born terrorist of Algerian descent who in 2012 murdered three soldiers, then a teacher and three children at a Jewish school in Toulouse. One of them was an eight-year-old girl he chased down and shot at point-blank range.
Looking back at this, yeah, fucking France totally had it coming. https://t.co/yAWiyYgNew

I’ve been following Canadian media and the “Elbows Up” circus on X. Having done business in Canada, including an acquisition in my industry, I’ve experienced firsthand its protectionist, near-monopolistic business culture. What fascinates me is the breathtaking arrogance, hostility and borderline vulgarity of those convinced America will collapse without Canadian oil, potash, lumber, electricity and, apparently, maple syrup. And please, spare us the endless whining about “But we had a deal!” Yes, you had a deal. That doesn’t mean every aspect of it was fair. You enjoyed privileged access to the world’s largest consumer market while fiercely protecting your own industries. American workers deserve better.
Washington should fundamentally reassess this relationship. If Canada prefers confrontation over cooperation, America should reduce its dependence, prioritize American workers and defend its economic, strategic and national security interests across North America.
I’m sure there are plenty of intelligent, decent Canadians. Unfortunately, the loudest anti-American “Elbows Up” warriors flooding my posts appear to have declared war on arithmetic, economics and common sense.
Enough of the entitlement. Enough of the lectures. Enough of pretending Canada’s leverage is greater than America’s. Want to pivot to Europe? Go ahead. Asia? Bon voyage. Build pipelines, sign trade deals, diversify all you want. Nobody is stopping you. Just remember that changing your political slogans is considerably easier than replacing your largest customer. And here’s a little homework for the maple syrup economists: Put down the syrup. Pick up a calculator. Show us the numbers. Who needs whom more?
Bring facts, not elbows, vulgarity and economic fairy tales. And if America is supposedly such a terrible partner, here’s a revolutionary idea: Stop obsessing over us and go find yourself another customer. Swipe left. Europe is that way. Good luck convincing Brussels to replace Washington. 🇺🇸🍁— Adriano 〡 NYC 〡 London 〡 Milano (@ashatku) October 7, 2026

The campaign of Janelle Stelson, the Democrat challenging Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) in Pennsylvania’s battleground 10th Congressional District, denied Wednesday that an alleged illegal immigrant who pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after allegedly exposing himself in public was associated with her campaign.
Chimaobim Adedayo Igbojekwe, a 35-year-old Nigerian national, was arrested Sept. 27 on one count of indecent exposure and two counts of disorderly conduct. He has since pleaded guilty to one third-degree misdemeanor disorderly conduct after the other two charges were dropped. He was arrested Oct. 1 by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Where is the American food boycott? And where is Canada’s agri-food trade diversification?
The latest Statistics Canada figures, which came out this week, suggest that both ambitions have yet to meaningfully change our dependence on the United States. Between January and August 2026, Canadian agri-food imports from the United States declined by 0.7%, compared with the same period in 2025. That might sound like evidence that Canadians’ determination to avoid American products is having an impact. But Canada’s total agri-food imports declined by 1.2%.
Even by French standards, the protests that have convulsed the country this week have been more dramatic than the usual flare-ups.
About a quarter of a million high-school students, teachers, trade unionists and activists were on the streets on Tuesday, facing off against police touting riot shields and tear gas.
But one high-profile figure was missing: Marine Le Pen, the leader of the hard-Right populist party National Rally.
Carney sure can pick em.
I’m thrilled to share that my new book, Unreliable Boyfriend, will be out on October 13. I can’t wait for you to read it. https://t.co/3xOOpia7mo
