CHARLEBOIS: Can food labels really lower cardiovascular risk?
We began seeing Health Canada’s now-familiar magnifying glass symbol on food packages in late 2024. The regulation gave companies three years — until Jan. 1, 2026 — to comply. Manufacturers had a choice: Reformulate, discontinue the product, or sell it with the symbol displayed prominently on the front of the package.
White Slave Trade
Ideological obsession with the transatlantic slave trade prevents insight into the Arab-Muslim slave trade.
Nazism and Bolshevism—the ideological world scourges of the twentieth century, threatening the complete destruction of Europe—may be buried as historical phenomena. However, the world does not stand still. And the enemies of the “open society,” as described by Karl Raimund Popper, never rest for long; they are always on the move, plotting and calculating. Some of them are skilled at ingratiating themselves and pose as humanists, pretentiously speaking on behalf of the “victims” of the world, but they are impostors, to be sure—and totalitarians at heart. Whatever the rhetoric, their ultimate goal is invariably to overthrow the West.
US and Israel launch joint attack on Iran
The US and Israel have launched an attack on Iran.
US president Donald Trump has described ongoing “major combat operations” and called for Iranian government forces to lay down their arms.
Earlier, Israel’s Defence Minister said Israel had launched a “pre-emptive attack” against Iran, with explosions heard across the country.

Iran launches heavy missile barrage across Israel in retaliation for US-Israel attack
Sirens have sounded across Israel’s north and central regions on Saturday, after a rocket barrage was fired from Iran. A missile impacted in northern Israel, a Magen David Adom source told Walla, with no injuries being reported.
According to a report by Fire and Rescue, a missile’s shrapnel impacted on a 20-story building and penetrated into the 17th floor.

Targeting America: The Montreal Network Exporting Carfentanil — 100 Times Stronger Than Fentanyl — Into the United States
QUEBEC — An elite Montreal-based narco network allegedly exported carfentanil and next-generation synthetic opioids 100 times deadlier than fentanyl to American consumers via the dark web, leading to the arrest of four yesterday, after 13 months of joint surveillance by U.S. federal agencies and Quebec police, and a seizure of more than 600,000 tablets of synthetic drugs in December.
Ban the burqa? Good luck with that
IF MEMORY serves it would have been the General Election campaign of 2005. I was sitting in the living room of Dewsbury businessman Iftikhar Azam, discussing serious allegations about the activities of Labour’s MP-in-waiting, Shahid Malik. I recall this not out of fondness for multi-cultural nostalgia, but in the context of Reform UK’s determination to ban the Muslim face covering – the niqab.
Malik – currently on trial for a £6.3million covid fraud which he denies – would go on to be a junior Labour minister before he was disgraced in the MPs’ expenses scandal. Defeated Tory candidate Sayeeda Hussain-Warsi would instead be fast-tracked to Westminster by Michael Howard as Baroness Warsi of Dewsbury and later elevated to the first Cabinet of David Cameron.
Netherlands Allows Euthanizing Newborn Babies, Canada Could be Next
Last September, several media outlets reported that Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program – legalized in 2016 to permit doctor-assisted suicide – had reignited debate over whether newborns could be included at some point.
The debate began in 2022, during hearings before Parliament’s Special Joint Committee on MAiD, when Louis Roy of the Quebec College of Physicians suggested that eligibility could one day extend to “babies from birth to one year of age” that were born with severe deformities or disabilities.

Beginning Of The End Of UK Liberal Democracy
Normally local by-elections in Britain are nothing for non-British people to care about. But I want you readers, most of whom are not Britons, to understand what just happened in the UK. It signals nothing less than perhaps the beginning of the end of British democracy, and the germination of the seeds of civil war. This is a sign.

I’ve woken to the news that the Muslim party has won the Gorton by election. Voted by block Muslim votes. That, my friends, is a taste of how the general election will be a landslide for Muslims and the final descent of this country into a third world disaster zone.

Pakistani refugee who returned to his homeland six times wins chance to keep Canadian status
A Federal Court judge set aside a ruling by Canada’s Refugee Protection Division (RPD), saying it failed “to engage with a critical piece of evidence” when it revoked a Pakistani man’s refugee status after he returned to the country on multiple occasions.
Irfan Ahmad arrived in Canada under the “convention refugee abroad” program in 2014, citing his status as a member of the Ahmadi community, a persecuted Muslim minority group in Pakistan.

Pro-Palestine activist vandalises Winston Churchill statue with graffiti calling ex-PM a ‘zionist war criminal’
This is the moment a pro-Palestine activist is filmed defacing Sir Winston Churchill’s statue outside the Houses of Parliament in the early hours of Friday morning.
The monument was defaced shortly after 4am with slogans including ‘Zionist war criminal’, ‘Stop the Genocide’, ‘Never again is Now’ and ‘Globalise the Intifada’.
The Dutch phrase ‘groetjes uit den haag’, which translates to ‘Greetings from the Hague’, was also spray-painted on.

MACLEOD: If talking to the neighbours is ‘treason,’ the Canadian marriage is already over
Alberta is flirting with the Americans again. A few bold souls are down in DC, on their own dime, asking about diplomatic recognition and — bless their pragmatic hearts — a line of credit.
Predictably, the “Forever Canada, Elbows Up” crowd has dropped their avocado toast in horror, screaming “Treason!” with the kind of theatrics usually reserved for a Truckers convoy or a minor dip in Toronto real estate prices.
How the Ukraine war ends
Yesterday, Russia, Ukraine and the US met for yet another round of peace talks in Geneva. At around the same time, scores of missiles and hundreds of drones pummeled Ukrainian infrastructure, causing chaos across eight regions and injuring dozens of people. And, in a sense, both these events are connected: as the war in Eastern Europe enters its fifth year, a peaceful resolution seems no closer than it did a year ago, when Trump began his second term promising a swift end to the conflict. If anything, in fact, peace seems to be receding ever further from reach.
Canada’s housing market has frayed our social fabric. How did this happen?
If there’s one thing Canadians can reliably expect from our housing market as we approach the spring, it’s plenty of drama.
No matter which group the market ends up favouring – those in search of a home or those looking to offload one – the high costs and high stakes of Canadian real estate are guaranteed to stir up the kind of suspense typical of a bingeworthy TV show. By its very nature, our market-based housing system is adversarial. It pits buyers against sellers and renters against landlords in a battle for fairness and fortune. That our system produces winners and losers has become a perverse but accepted norm in our society; it’s just the way it works.
By virtually any other measure, however, it doesn’t work very well at all.
A News Crew Visited Downtown Portland to See If Things Improved. Guess How That Turned Out.
The Left believes that any time President Trump criticizes or rightly attacks the media, it represents an abhorrent, unconstitutional breach of the First Amendment, and threatens the concept of a free press. That, of course, isn’t true. But we can’t help but notice that the Left is awfully silent on this actual attack on the press.

Poilievre makes the pivot on Trump, but repudiates Carney’s foreign policy
There were two speeches inside the speech on Canada-U.S. relations that Pierre Poilievre gave Thursday. One was intended to make him sound like a grown-up. The other was to make him sound different than Mark Carney.
The first part was the kind of political repositioning that Mr. Poilievre has long needed.
