John Ivison: The loss of Scott Aitchison is a grim warning for Conservatives
The Conservatives will try to spin the departure of Scott Aitchison, the popular MP for Parry Sound–Muskoka, as being of negligible importance. Here’s a guy in his early 50s who has spent more than 30 years in municipal and federal politics, and who has decided to move on to another stage in life.

Fair enough. Aitchison’s reasons for leaving at the end of the fall session remain vague. He said on social media that it is “time for a new chapter to explore new opportunities.”
Dear Women: Your Bad Life Choices At Cornell Frat Parties Shouldn’t Be National News
At some point we’re going to have to decide: Women are either capable of taking control of their lives and accepting responsibility for their choices or they’re not. At the moment, we’re trending toward not.
CNN content creator Jake Tapper on Monday interviewed the district attorney who has reopened a criminal investigation into the alleged 2024 sexual assault of a Cornell student known only (per a new civil lawsuit) as “Jane Doe.” In that exchange, Tapper was nearly bent over in angry tears demanding to know why the DA, Matthew Van Houten, hadn’t disregarded everything Doe reportedly told police at the time about her consensual sex and drug use with some frat boys and instead probed around for more details.
The Way To Defeat The West: Turn Us Against Ourselves
The West possesses extraordinary military, economic, and technological power that our adversaries increasingly realize they can’t confront directly. Paradoxically, we live in a moment when we are forced to choose which of our principles matter most, pitting ourselves against one another instead of focusing with laser precision on our threats, playing our opponents’ game rather than our own.
MI5 Escalates China Warning, Publicly Exposing Alleged MSS Research Network
LONDON — Britain’s domestic intelligence service has taken the extraordinary step of publicly identifying a Chinese research organization it says is being used to strengthen Beijing’s espionage capabilities, warning more than 100 UK-linked academics have already contributed to projects ultimately funded by China’s Ministry of State Security.
The public alert also puts academics on notice that from now on, continuing to work with the organization could expose them to criminal prosecution under Britain’s National Security Act.
White Paint is Racist
Everything white is a problem. Not just white people, who are obviously the worst, but also milk (“The Troubling Link Between Milk and Racism” George Washington University), white swans (“A Swan Has Been Accused of Attacking Students from Ethnic Minorities”) and now it’s time for white paint, all too ubiquitous in our racist society, to face its own long delayed racial reckoning.
Green ‘nutters’ and ‘lunatics’ want to ban the word ‘mother’
We’ve all enjoyed recent videos of Zack Polanski pleading for our vote in Urdu. But the Greens have reminded us that, when it comes to making idiots of themselves, they still do it best in English. Ahead of Saturday’s party conference in Brighton, the Green Party of England and Wales has released its ‘Inclusive Terminology Guidance’. This ‘inclusive’ guidance is, in reality, a list of banned words and phrases.
John Goddard: Mississauga ISIS supporters tried to slaughter entire family who knew too much
He had reddish-brown hair, unusual for a Pakistani, and freckles around his eyes and nose. In other ways, he conformed to one of the stereotypical profiles of the South Asian Muslim male. He was bearded, with a thin, almost non-existent moustache and a squarish, heavy-looking face. His body, even in his twenties, was taking on the pudgy shapelessness that would become characteristic as he grew older. He projected not exactly charisma but enough confidence and charm to hold sway over others, especially those younger and less emotionally mature than himself.
Heavily pregnant homeless woman is ‘refused emergency accommodation by council’ which houses more than 3,500 migrants – as charity that stepped in says it was told ‘unborn children have no rights’
A heavily pregnant woman has been left homeless after a council that houses more than 3,500 migrants refused her emergency accommodation, a charity says.
Homeless Project Scotland posted on Facebook claiming the 34-week-pregnant woman, who said she had fled an abusive relationship in London, was snubbed by Glasgow City Council.
The charity’s chief executive Colin McInnes described her plight as one of the most ‘horrific’ he had seen.
Jamie Sarkonak: Judge who praised BC drug dealers in court cannot be trusted on the bench
B.C.’s courts have brought us the Charter right to smoke drugs near playgrounds, the Charter right to erect a homeless encampment, and the Aboriginal right to claim title to someone else’s land. It’s a hard list to top, but on Tuesday, Justice Catherine Murray managed it by inventing a Charter right to deal drugs.
France: Principal shot with firework mortar directly in face, then his school is set on fire in Rouen
The principal of a French high school in Rouen was struck by a firework mortar and the school’s entrance was set on fire, resulting in a massive blaze, on Thursday. The arson attack is one of many targeting schools today, Oct. 1, which also saw mass violence, buses and fire trucks set on fire, and even a case being treated as attempted murder.
Poilievre ‘clearly struggling’ as Carney Liberals’ support surges, polls suggest
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberals would secure a larger majority if an election were held today as support plunges for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives, polls suggest.
The Signal — the Star’s supercomputer-powered poll aggregator — forecasts that the Liberals would win between 192 and 238 seats, with a median tally of 215 on 46.9 per cent of the vote.
Carney’s party currently holds 173 seats in the 343-member House of Commons, a narrow majority.
I’m shocked a Star commissioned poll would turn out this way.
And the Cover Model for ‘New York’ Magazine’s Men’s Issue is…
For the cover of its first-ever full-blown “Men’s Style Issue,” New York magazine decided to feature the transgender actor Elliot (née Ellen) Page. This certainly comes as no surprise to anyone who remembers that the Left-wing, Mamdani-loving outlet once did a cover story fantasizing about men wearing high heels for the fall season. It also will come as no surprise to anyone who is aware that, in the current zeitgeist, straight masculinity is out and nonbinary gender disorders are in. This is all by design, of course.
Trump ‘loves’ Canadians, especially Gretzky, but thinks Canada’s leaders are ‘very bad’
U.S. President Donald Trump says he “love(s) the Canadian people” but that the nation’s leaders “have taken advantage” of the U.S. for too long in his latest rant about the country.
Speaking at a White House event marking U.S. Hispanic Heritage Month on Wednesday, Trump said that the U.S. was “so stupidly run” in the past because it “allowed” automakers to make cars for the U.S. in other countries, including Canada.
