The clearest attempt at a line of demarcation during Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s speech on Canada-United States relations was an apparent rejoinder to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s insistence that a “rupture” has occurred.
Quoting a John F. Kennedy hymn about the geography, history, economics and necessity that have brought Canada and the U.S. ever closer, Poilievre said the former president’s “insight captures a reality deeper than any temporary dispute.”
Britain is to get a new ‘anti-Muslim hostility tsar’ under plans to be outlined by the government on Monday, which will also include a new definition of Islamophobia.
The Spectator has been leaked a draft copy of Protecting What Matters, a document outlining Labour’s new cohesion strategy which is to be unveiled in a cross government push next week. The 47-page paper features a crackdown on extremism and names Islamists as the biggest threat to community cohesion. It also outlines fresh demands that new arrivals in Britain seek to integrate and speak good English, described as a ‘fundamental basis for participating in society and an expectation of those who wish to call the UK home’. It states: ‘Those who come here must make a genuine effort to integrate into and engage with our shared way of life.’ The last census found that over a million people could not speak English well or at all.
One year into the trade war, Canadians are feeling more patriotic and more convinced the United States is a worse place under Donald Trump. And as the president dangles the fate of North American free trade above a wood chipper, a split has emerged between business leaders worried about bottom lines and Canadians who are simply over the president’s provocations.
Bear in mind that Politico called on a former hack from the universally despised Trudeau government to provide insight.

Donald Trump is of a generation still scarred by the embassy hostage crisis in 1979 that defined US-Iranian enmity. It was a humiliation he has never forgotten
At the height of the Iranian hostage crisis, with dozens of American citizens held captive inside the US embassy in Tehran, Donald Trump advocated a full-scale invasion of Iran and the seizure of its oil fields.
On October 8, 1980, the 34-year-old real estate developer was being interviewed on television by the New York gossip columnist Rona Barrett when he suddenly swivelled from discussing the decor of his newly built Trump Tower to address the continuing hostage crisis.
Radical Islamist students had stormed the US embassy almost a year earlier. The supreme leader Ayatollah Khomeini had refused to free the 52 hostages unless the ousted Shah was returned to Iran for trial.

Canada is set to pass a grim milestone in its medically-assisted suicide program with a total of 100,000 citizens projected to be euthanized by the government before its 10th anniversary on June 17.
The Great White North’s MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying) program will soon cross the sickly six-figure threshold, according to The National Post.
Ottawa’s most recent data shows 15,767 Canadians were euthanized by the state in 2024 — 5.1% of all deaths in the nation that year.
It isn’t too often that conservatives can take a victory lap in the culture war, but Netflix’s announcement that it was abandoning its attempt to purchase Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) is one of those occasions.
The collapse of the deal marked a rare moment when Washington, Wall Street, the conservative grassroots, and everyday viewers could all stand up and cheer.

Not a lot of footage available. Nothing noteworthy seems to have occurred.
Less than a week before she died, a woman stabbed in a small southwestern Ontario town had spoken to CBC about the threats she was facing for speaking out about Khalistan extremism.
Nancy Grewal, 45, was identified by police as the victim in a stabbing outside a home on Todd Lane in LaSalle, Ont., on Tuesday.
She was at the home working as a personal support worker.

Scientists say medicine stands close to a breakthrough that once sounded like science fiction. Bali Pulendran, professor of pathology, microbiology, and immunology at Stanford University School of Medicine, leads a research effort to develop a “universal vaccine” that protects against multiple respiratory threats simultaneously.
Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney has called for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to be removed from the royal line of succession.
Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office last month after being accused of sharing confidential material with the late paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew has previously denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein; he has not responded to the BBC’s requests for comment on the specific allegations in relation to the release of millions of Epstein files in January.
Tariq Ramadan, a former Oxford professor and Islamic scholar, will be tried in his absence in Paris next week on charges of raping three women after the court rejected his claim to be too ill to attend in person.
Corinne Goetzmann, the presiding judge, issued an immediate arrest warrant and ordered the trial to go ahead after medical experts reported to the court that Ramadan, 63, who is based in Switzerland, was fit enough to sit through the four-week trial. The proceedings will be held in camera, without attendance by the public or media.
The discussion going on about whether Canada could or should get involved in the war launched against Iran by the United States and Israel is becoming laughable.
We’ve had Prime Minister Mark Carney say that Canada wasn’t consulted nor asked to participate in the strikes last week.
Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the war in Ukraine has developed into a high-tech conflict.
Swarms of spy and killer drones have set the skies of Ukraine abuzz, and uncrewed boats have crippled the Russian navy in the Black Sea.
Now, Ukraine has embarked on a massive programme to deploy armed robots on the ground.
Getting really crappy for the infantry.
