Yet another high-ranking Toronto cop has been shockingly criminally charged.
Senior Toronto Police officer Insp. Michael Hayles, who has in the past asked drivers to “make the right choice” and “designate a sober driver,” has now been charged himself by his own service for alleged impaired driving.
Donald Trump’s remark that Iran could “take out” Los Angeles and San Diego has sparked fierce backlash from California politicians – and a strongly worded rebuttal from the White House.
California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned the comment – made by Trump at a campaign rally in Nebraska – as “deranged and dangerous,” while LA Mayor Karen Bass described them as threats and an attempt to “encourage attacks on American lives”.
According to the White House, however, Trump was saying that American cities would have been threatened by Iran had he not launched a war there earlier this year.
Not sure about San Diego but LA? Go for it!
A Canadian pop star was booed when she failed to remember the words to her own national anthem during a soccer game between Canada and Peru in Montreal on Saturday.
Alessia Cara was chosen to sing “O Canada” in French before the match, but she appeared to fumble and lose her nerve as the song progressed, Express reported Sunday.
Express – Famous popstar booed over national anthem as outraged fans demand ‘passport taken away’
This sums up EXACTLY how Canada is doing right now.
A ‘professional’ singer hired for the Canada vs Peru game in Montreal cannot even remember the words to her own national anthem. A task that school children manage daily is too complex for her.
What an embarrassment. https://t.co/AiyUL6YpT3

As Ukraine’s European backers deal with myriad challenges at home — violent student protests in France, the rise of right-wing forces in Germany and a mounting fuel crisis across the continent — Russian President Vladimir Putin is counting on a collapse of European support for Kyiv in the coming months, Russian and European officials and analysts say.
Chris Alexander has announced he is dropping out of the race to become the next mayor of Toronto.
The former Conservative cabinet minister made the announcement at a news conference in Toronto on Tuesday morning.
“Our path to success, it became clear to me over this weekend, was not obvious and perhaps not there at all,” he told supporters and members of the media at his campaign headquarters.
Was never in the running.

The heads of Germany’s intelligence agencies rarely provide information openly. What members of the Bundestag’s Parliamentary Control Committee discuss in their bug-proof meeting room with the presidents of the Federal Intelligence Service, or Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND), and the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), as well as the president of the Military Counterintelligence Service, is strictly confidential.
Since 2016, however, a public meeting has been held once a year, open to journalists, as well as citizens who register in advance. At this year’s meeting, held Monday, intelligence officials seemed extremely alarmed. They painted a picture of a country in the midst of a confrontation with Russia.
In Germany “far-right extremist” is anyone who voted AfD.
‘Only the beginning’: Anti-immigration group says Ottawans should ‘brace themselves’
For weeks, posters and stickers across Ottawa advertising the anti-immigration group Dominion Society of Canada — which is calling for mass deportations of millions of people — have been generating complaints of racism and white nationalism online, to police and to the city.
But Ottawa police say the posters and stickers reported so far do not constitute hate crimes, and the group’s chair and founder Daniel Tyrie said the recruitment campaign is not going to stop.
It’s only ethnic cleansing when White People stand up for their best interests according to CBC.
The Liberal Government is guilty of ethnic cleansing via its hateful mass immigration policy so the ever reliable CBC runs cover and engages in victim blaming.
This follows Carney’s recent announcement that they have the immigration issue under control so it’s time open the floodgates.
Of course Carney lied about the real immigration numbers.
Canadians do not benefit from mass immigration, Carney will use the influx to juice the GDP numbers while his corporate crony’s profit.
Anyone seeking an end to the Liberal Party’s mass immigration scam is labeled a racist. The same con they have run for decades.
That an organized opposition has risen to answer the race baiting of our so called elites should not be a surprise to anyone.
This article isn’t just about demonizing the Dominion Society its purpose is to criminalize dissent by making make us afraid to stand up for our rights and demand an end to replacement migration.
The racists at the CBC are the pot calling the Kettle Black.
Before dawn on Tuesday outside the Lycée Sophie-Germain in central Paris, hundreds of teenagers dragged wheelie bins, metal barriers and shopping trolleys to build a barricade outside the front door of their secondary school.
Climbing to the top of the piles of bins, pupils held banners calling for more funding and greater equality in French schools. But they were also protesting against French riot police, who have been accused by human rights groups of using disproportionate force against children in what is fast becoming the biggest youth protest movement in decades.
“Everyone hates the police,” chanted a group of 15- and 16-year-olds. At least 215 teenagers, 715 police officers and 85 teaching staff have been injured in clashes in recent days, according to the government.
Hello Canada!
The problem looming over these riots is that France has a large population of young people who are immigrants or the children/grandchildren of immigrants that are simply not employable. They will not work and employers will not risk hiring them.
They are not citizens in any meaningful sense, but an unassimilated third world horde, unemployable and ultimately ungovernable.

Quebec’s electoral map has been completely redrawn, with the Parti Québécois securing enough seats to form a minority government.
Paul St-Pierre Plamondon succeeded in growing his party from only three seats in the previous election in 2022 to 59 on Monday.
But the PQ leader didn’t get the majority he coveted, which will make it more difficult to follow through on his plans — including holding a referendum on Quebec independence.
Former German spy chief August Hanning has been arrested on suspicion of espionage, treason and obtaining classified information for a foreign power, the German Federal Prosecutor’s Office says.
Hanning headed the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) from 1998 to 2005 and has since been working as a private consultant.
Prosecutors allege that he used classified intelligence to “draft an analysis” for one foreign intelligence service and maintained contact with another foreign spying service. Investigators have not disclosed which foreign powers were involved.
VANCOUVER — “Nobody but David Eby wants this B.C. Election” – “It’s naked opportunism, without the dignity or even gesturing towards subtlety,” reports Kirk Lapointe in The Hub on September 22, 2026.
However, this election presents a critical opportunity for voters to examine the issues highlighted that same day in The Bureau’s report, “Public Safety documents flag intelligence, military base and supply chain risks in BC Ferries China deal.” That report brings necessary attention to Premier Eby’s handling of foreign interference and its impact on British Columbia’s political process.
The head of the Jewish Greens has said she may leave the party after it voted to adopt a policy that equates Zionism with racism and calls for Israel to be replaced by a single Palestinian state.
Vivien Lichtenstein said that while opinion among Jewish members of the party was split on the motion passed at its annual conference in Brighton on Sunday, she said she believed it was unhelpful and it was “possible” she might quit.
Top Canadian doctors are raising alarm bells over the country’s seemingly quick approval for assisted dying requests, after one elderly woman was accepted based on the fact that she lost the ability to cook meals for her family.
Doctors Gary Rodin and Madeline Li from the University of Toronto shared mounting fears among Canada’s healthcare professionals over increasing cases of euthanasia approvals.
The psychiatry professors said they aren’t opposed to legalized medical assistance in dying, but stressed that Canadian law does not require healthcare professionals to guide patients toward seeking alternative help.

The King has insisted that private funding he gives to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor must not be used to fund his legal action against police.
A Buckingham Palace source said the monarch had no involvement in the former Duke of York’s application for a judicial review of his arrest by Thames Valley Police.
They added that it had been “made clear” to Mr Mountbatten-Windsor that the financial provision he receives from his elder brother should not be used to fund the High Court claim.
A senior Toronto police officer has been charged with impaired driving after he was found asleep behind the wheel over the weekend in Leaside, sources tell CP24.
Insp. Mike Hayles, 51, of 55 Division, was arrested at around 6 a.m. on Sunday.
