The Ontario government has confirmed it is cutting provincial funding for seven supervised drug consumption sites, days after harm reduction advocates said they were notified of the decision.
The province says it will initiate a 90-day wind-down period to give those using the sites time to transition to the government’s abstinence-based model — homelessness and addiction recovery treatment, or HART, hubs.

Less than a month ago Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said his “approach to immigration is very simple.”
“Legal? Good. Illegal? Bad,” Cruz said.
But a series of recent terrorist attacks proves that legal immigration can be just as dangerous as illegal immigration.
OTTAWA – A senior official from the Chinese Communist Party’s International Department met with former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien and Trudeau-appointed Senator Yuen Pau Woo during a four-day visit to Canada in March — a significant development given that Germany’s domestic intelligence service warned in 2023 that the body effectively operates like an intelligence service of the People’s Republic of China. The meetings were documented in a readout and photographs published on the department’s official website.
We’ve all been there. You rock up to speak at a demonstration, intending to lend your voice to the oppressed and the downtrodden, only to realise you are surrounded by Islamists celebrating an anti-Semitic tyrant, who oppressed and butchered his own people. Welcome to the world of Bob Vylan, the punk-rapping affront to our eardrums and basic moral decency.
Masood Masjoody was a troubled man. Obnoxious, outlandishly paranoid and vexatiously litigious, the murdered 45-year-old former sessional math instructor at Simon Fraser University was long active in Iranian diaspora circles. He was ferociously militant in the cause of Iranian democracy.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team came upon evidence suggesting foul play immediately after Masjoody’s neighbours reported to Burnaby RCMP on Feb. 2 that he had gone missing. On March 6, IHIT investigators assisted by police dogs and a search and rescue team discovered Masjoody’s remains in Mission, about an hour’s drive east of Metro Vancouver.
IN ONE of his most remarkable short stories, Story of the Warrior and the Captive, Jorge Luis Borges recounts two seemingly unrelated historical episodes. One concerns Droctulft, a Lombard warrior who, according to Paul the Deacon, at some time in the mid-6th century abandons his people to defend Rome. The other tells of an Englishwoman captured by indigenous tribes on the Argentine frontier who, after years among them, refuses to return to European society.
Canadians pride themselves on living in a fair society.
Most believe people should be judged by what they do, not by who they are. That principle is called merit. Working hard, earning your place, and contributing to the country are the foundations of Canada’s prosperity and stability.
It is also an idea that resonates deeply across political lines. Whether Canadians lean left or right, most still agree that fairness means the same rules for everyone.
Three asylum seekers have gone on trial accused of gang-raping a woman on a beach.
Egyptian national Karin Al-Danasurt is facing four counts of rape, while countryman Ibrahim Mohamed Alshafe and Iranian Abdulla Amih Ahmadi are each facing two.
Al-Danasurt is also accused of sharing videos of the alleged attack.
Vaughan’s Steven Del Duca said ‘a lot of officials … (are) too busy counting votes, rather than standing up for Canadian values’
At about 8 a.m. on March 7, about eight hours after a flurry of bullets were fired into his city’s BAYT synagogue, Vaughan Mayor Steven Del Duca arrived at the shul to show his support. Within the hour, hundreds of congregants would arrive for Shabbat services, seeing the police tape at the front doors, the barricades and dividers, and a lot of York Regional Police officers.
Dr. Menno Oosterhoff leaned forward in his living-room chair, took a sip from his coffee mug, and told me about the first time he ended a patient’s life.
She was 18 years old and had been diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder, an eating disorder, and autism. Despite years of treatment, she was still bedeviled by negative thoughts, and she told Oosterhoff, a specialist in child and adolescent psychiatry in the Netherlands, that she couldn’t stand any more suffering. He suggested deep brain stimulation, an invasive procedure sometimes used to treat severe OCD. She insisted that she wanted help dying instead.
A Canadian school has sparked outrage after it designated ‘No Food’ zones at certain times inside its cafeteria in order to be inclusive to Muslim children who are fasting for Ramadan.
Lunch areas at Fairview School in Calgary have been named ‘food free’ to support students undertaking the religious fast, according to an email sent by administrators.
The email informed parents that the cafeteria was a ‘No Food Space’ during the first half of lunch for younger pupils in grades 4 to 6.

President Trump defended the Iranian people for not yet rising up against their government as Operation Epic Fury enters its third week.
While another mass protest could help ensure the current regime is ultimately prevented from retaining power, Trump acknowledged the brutal reality facing ordinary Iranians. The regime has openly threatened to shoot and kill anyone who attempts to rise up, a threat made all the more credible after security forces slaughtered more than 30,000 protesters earlier this year.
