Carney says apology needed for Indigenous spying program

The prime minister said there should be a public apology for a spying operation targeting hundreds of Indigenous people that had the support of the federal government.

“Yes, there should be an apology,” Mark Carney said during a news conference in Halifax on Thursday. “It’s a reprehensible practice. Never should’ve happened.”

Carney was responding to reporting from CBC Indigenous, which revealed extensive RCMP surveillance activities dating back to the late 1960s against Indigenous leaders and organizations.

He panders as much as Junior.

Is homosexuality a sin?

That’s like asking whether adultery is a sin, or taking God’s name in vain. The Bible is quite clear on the matter, and for over two millennia, it was uncontroversial to believe that the sexual binary and method of human procreation made clear that God made men and women to be complementary.

Get ready Canada …

Anti-hate bill that provoked bitter debate over religious freedom passes the Commons

Jewish groups welcomed the government’s anti-hate bill passing through the Commons Wednesday evening after months of filibustering and fractious debate about whether it threatens religious freedom.

Bill C-9, as it’s known, would make it a crime, punishable by up to 10 years in prison, to obstruct someone from accessing a place of worship or other sites where Jews, Muslims and other identifiable groups gather.

War is the worst time to find Canada — still — without a national oil reserve

Can Canada insulate itself from oil volatility caused by U.S. President Donald Trump’s illegal bombing of Iran? Experts say no. History says yes.

Iran’s retaliation against American attacks has disrupted oil supplies. Gasoline prices have spiked and left shocked Canadian motorists to wonder why their lives should be so affected by events in the Persian Gulf. Doesn’t Canada produce enough oil to supply all its provinces?

Yes — and it can supply them quickly, without waiting 10 years to approve and build a 4,600-kilometre pipeline from Alberta to New Brunswick.

Pope Leo vs. President Trump

After the tragic experiences of the 20th century, aerial bombardment should have been banished forever!” declared Pope Leo XIV this week. “Instead, as we know, it still exists, and technological development, which is positive in itself, is being put at the service of war. This is not progress, it is regression!” The pontiff remonstrated: “Aircraft should always be vehicles of peace, never of war! No one should fear that threats of death and destruction will come from the sky.”

The United Nations General Assembly has voted to recognise the enslavement of Africans during the transatlantic slave trade as “the gravest crime against humanity”, a move advocates hope will pave the way for healing and justice.

The resolution – proposed by Ghana – called for this designation, while also urging UN member states to consider apologising for the slave trade and contributing to a reparations fund. It does not mention a specific amount of money.

The files are among those obtained by CBC Indigenous through multiple Access to Information requests.

Organizers of the coming FIFA World Cup have begun cancelling thousands of their hotel-room bookings in Toronto, Vancouver and other host cities across North America, a move industry observers say is not uncommon during large events.

The British Columbia Hotel Association said FIFA organizers have cancelled between 70 per cent and 80 per cent of their booked hotel rooms in Vancouver, accounting for roughly 15,000 hotel-room nights during the tournament period between June 11 and July 19. Those freed-up rooms can now be booked by regular travellers, the association said.

Men pretending to be women athletes banned from women’s Olympic events by new IOC policy

I don’t care about the Olympics

GENEVA (AP) — Transgender women athletes are now excluded from women’s events at the Olympics after the IOC agreed to a new eligibility policy on Thursday which aligns with U.S. President Donald Trump’s executive order on sports ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

“Eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, is now limited to biological females,” the International Olympic Committee said, to be determined by a mandatory gene test once in an athlete’s career.
