Army of Patriots: Why the British Government Must Be Terrified of What’s Been Happening in Dover and Portsmouth
In August of 2011, the British government—a Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition led by David Cameron—discovered just how tenuous its grasp on law and order really was.
The most serious urban riots in a generation were kicked off by the death of a mixed-race man called Mark Duggan on August 4 in Tottenham, north London. Armed police intercepted the car Duggan was traveling in and shot him. The officers said they believed he had been carrying a gun, and a converted pistol was found at the scene; tight gun laws in the UK mean criminals often convert deactivated pistols and starter guns into live weapons. Initial reports claimed there was an exchange of gunfire, but the story quickly changed. Duggan wasn’t holding the gun at the time he was killed. It took until 2014, and a full judicial inquest, to establish that Duggan had indeed been lawfully killed.
WTF?

Defence Official Fired After Warning About Beijing Says Ottawa’s Renewed PLA Engagement Bolsters Washington’s Claim That Canada Is China’s Back Door
OTTAWA — A former senior Canadian defence official suing the federal government over a dismissal her lawyer links to Mark Carney’s pivot toward China is pointing to the government’s newly disclosed military engagement with Beijing — and to what she calls growing public recognition that Canada’s partnership with China has impeded trade talks with Washington.
They’re not in the least ashamed about it.
Robotaxis Make Headway in California
SACRAMENTO — California’s government obviously is notorious for its slow-moving and bureaucratic permitting processes — and its frequent hostility to private enterprise. Despite the state budget’s reliance on capital-gains revenue from the tech industry, officials here also can be quite meddlesome when it comes to AI and social media. But recent news from the California Public Utilities Commission, which regulates autonomous passenger-service vehicles, offers some encouraging news.
Canada can’t wait for America to return to normal — this is the new normal
Back in 2017, I had been chatting with Financial Times columnist Edward Luce and he made an observation: Many people viewed U.S. President Donald Trump’s election as a temporary aberration, one that would end once he left office. Nearly a decade later, Canada is still grappling with the opposite reality, yet the perception that things are temporary persists.
The trade war is often discussed as a dispute to be negotiated away, measured in tariffs, retaliation and timelines. That framing misses the larger lesson.
Boycotting Jewish Businesses Will Not Create Peace
The foreign ministers of 12 Western countries have apparently decided that the best way to promote peace between Israelis and Palestinians is to punish businesses operating in Jewish communities in the West Bank.
One can only wonder what planet these ministers are living on.
On September 8, Canada, France, Iceland, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, Ireland, and the United Kingdom issued a joint statement declaring that they intend to introduce, or support, restrictions on trade in goods produced in Jewish settlements.
HUNTER: What CBC ‘Journalist Standards’ boss doesn’t know about 9/11
For those of us who were in New York City that horrific day, the 9/11 terrorist attacks are never very far away.
This abomination occurred 25 years ago Friday.
A kid’s ball game, a smiling cop or a fire truck racing past. It’s the little things that bring back the monstrosity of that dark day.

Theater Kid Absurdity: Fired ‘60 Minutes’ Producer Quotes Jefferson in EPIC Meltdown
Former CBS’s 60 Minutes managing producer Guy Campanile took to Facebook Tuesday with what he probably thought was a 570-word tour de force denouncing what he views as lying, partisan, and unprincipled new management, led by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss and new 60 Minutes executive producer Nick Bilton.
Want 2019 housing affordability? Canada must double building rate: CMHC
Canada needs to roughly double the rate that new homes are being built in order to restore housing affordability to pre-pandemic levels over the next decade, according to the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC).
The CMHC released its fall 2026 housing supply report on Thursday, which said Canada needs to build hundreds of thousands more homes annually in order to narrow a significant long-term supply gap, with some major markets struggling more than others.
Since 9/11, the Number of Immigrants to US from the Muslim World Has Grown by 1.8 Million
As the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks approaches, some may wonder if increased vetting or possible distrust of Muslims in the United States caused fewer people from the Islamic world to immigrate here. An analysis of Census Bureau data shows that the immigrant population (also called the foreign-born) from predominantly Muslim countries has more than doubled since 2001.1 Not all immigrants from these countries are Muslims. (The Census Bureau does not ask about religion.) Nevertheless, the data indicate that the U.S. did not fundamentally change immigration policy after September 11th, nor does the desire of many people in the Muslim world to settle here seem to have changed much. As a result, the number of immigrants from these countries has soared.
Poilievre tells CNBC he won’t ‘attack my PM on foreign soil’ in trade fight
Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre delivered a pro-free trade message to millions of Americans watching morning television Thursday, urging Canada and the United States to return to the negotiating table and declining to criticize Prime Minister Mark Carney while appearing in the U.S.
Asked by the hosts of CNBC’s Squawk Box whether Carney was acting in good faith in trade negotiations with the United States, Poilievre said he would not attack the prime minister while abroad.
“Look, I’m not going to attack my prime minister on foreign soil. It’s just not something I’m going to do,” Poilievre said.
I’d be fine with this if Carney was actually Canada’s PM and not Brookfield’s – Xi’s PM.
Russia Is Redrawing Its Energy Map Through the Arctic
Russia’s Northern Sea Route (NSR) is about to become a game-changer for Eurasian energy trade, and Europe’s January 2027 ban on Russian LNG is pushing Moscow to bring it to life sooner than planned. LNG will remain its foundation, while crude traffic and Rosneft’s vast Vostok Oil project could provide far greater scale. For Russia, the prize is a shorter route to Asian customers that avoids foreign-controlled chokepoints and increases Moscow’s command over export infrastructure. However, the route’s seasonal availability and persistent fleet shortages remain major constraints on its reliability and expansion.
A Canadian town’s famous warm welcome doesn’t extend to US ambassador on 9/11 anniversary
On 9/11, the small town of Gander, Newfoundland, welcomed thousands of stranded Americans whose flights were redirected after the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon.
Twenty-five years later, residents of that very same Atlantic coast community are less enthusiastic about hosting the US ambassador to Canada for commemoration ceremonies on Friday.
Some are even demanding that his invite be rescinded.
