Premier Doug Ford has applauded the Vaughan homeowner who shot one of four masked intruders breaking into his home early Tuesday morning, saying more people need to defend themselves with guns.
“Congratulations for shooting this guy — should have shot him a couple more times, as far as I’m concerned,” said Ford, responding to a reporter’s question Wednesday during an appearance in Kenilworth, in southwestern Ontario.
“These guys, they need to be shot,” he said.
Four years and 24 days. Nineteen days. There’s a huge difference between those two numbers. The first numbers — 1,485 days altogether — is the length of time since Russian troops crossed the Ukraine border on Feb. 22, 2022, and headed for Kyiv. The second number — just 19 days — is the number of days since U.S. and Israeli forces on Feb. 28 began bombing strategic targets in Iran.
The two attacks have this in common: their initial responses were far different from what many experts, in the United States and beyond, expected and predicted.

Someone likened it to ‘killing the Golden goose,’ and if there was ever anything golden about Los Angeles, it was the glitter of its legendary film industry.

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel has responded to takeover threats from Donald Trump, saying that the US would face “unbreakable resistance” if it tried to seize the country.
His remarks come as Cuba struggles with a multitude of economic woes largely brought about by pressure from the US, which is trying to cut off the flow of foreign currency and oil to the Caribbean island.
