Face-to-face with ‘bomb plotters’: Villager tells of 999 call after stumbling on masked men

Face-to-face with ‘bomb plotters’: Villager tells of 999 call after stumbling on masked men

Driving home from a party in the early hours, a local farmer came across three seemingly abandoned white vans blocking a quiet country road.

Confused, she turned her car around. As she did so, she saw a group of masked men in balaclavas scattering into the trees and across the fields towards RAF Fairford.

She accelerated away and called the police. When she stopped, she also messaged her local WhatsApp group and warned people to lock their doors.

Brit security knew nothing about the plot. Canada is becoming more like GB every day.

Canadians Still Leaving At Near Record Pace Echoing 90s “Brain Drain”

Canadians Still Leaving At Near Record Pace Echoing 90s “Brain Drain”

Canadians are still leaving in near record volumes. Statistics Canada (StatCan) data shows emigration—citizens and PRs leaving permanently—rose in Q2 2026. In fact, it was the third highest outflow for the second quarter ever reported. Even fewer Canadians are returning, mirroring the country’s peak “Brain Drain” era. Except this time the numbers show this rise wasn’t a shock, but a trend with few signs of slowing anytime soon.

Hell, Carney barely lives here.

Seattle’s Grocery Store Debacle

Seattle’s Grocery Store Debacle

Seattle city government faces a steep budget deficit amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars over the next three years—an estimated 10 percent of its revenues. Yet the city just allocated $1.7 million to help struggling independent supermarkets avoid going out of business. The money is both more than the stressed budget should apportion and not enough to make a difference in a metropolis of nearly 400 food stores.

The Quiet Islamic Colonization of America

The Quiet Islamic Colonization of America

For 25 years, American counterterrorism policy has been organized around the image of September 11: a terror cell, an aircraft, an explosion. Billions went into intelligence, airport screening and wars abroad. Across those same years, a slower project advanced through channels that no security agency was built to monitor: one moving through universities, lobbying organizations, municipal, state and national politics, and the vocabulary of civil rights. It required nothing more explosive than money, patience and a working knowledge of how an open society such as the United States functions.

What Trump’s ‘most favoured nation’ drug pricing policy might mean for Canadians

What Trump’s ‘most favoured nation’ drug pricing policy might mean for Canadians

U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement that all 50 states will join his proposed drug-price lowering policy is leading Canadian pharmaceutical experts and international researchers to warn how prices could rise around the world.

On Sept. 18, Trump announced in the Oval Office that all state Medicaid programs for Americans with low incomes will benefit from lower prescription drug prices under agreements with pharmaceutical manufacturers to match the lowest prices paid by other developed nations.

“We went from paying the highest drug prices in the world to paying the lowest drug prices in the world,” Trump said about the intention of the new policy.

Pope says assisted dying not ‘normal’

Pope says assisted dying not ‘normal’

Pope Leo XIV on Sunday said assisted dying was not “normal”, as he continued a landmark visit to France, where parliament has legalized the practice for certain patients.

“No human law should ever make you lose the certainty of your dignity,” he told believers who were sick or suffered from disabilities, at the French pilgrimage site of Lourdes.

“We must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion. It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal,” he added.

Poilievre urges tax cuts to make diesel fuel more affordable, ensure future supplies

Poilievre urges tax cuts to make diesel fuel more affordable, ensure future supplies

OTTAWA – Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is pitching a plan to cut federal taxes on diesel fuel and help ensure Canada has affordable supplies of the fuel in the future.

Poilievre says Canada already produces enough diesel to meet national demand, but transportation bottlenecks leave some regions dependent on U.S. imports.

He proposes eliminating all tax on diesel sales until at least Canada Day by extending the full fuel excise tax cut until July 1 of next year and removing the GST from the purchase of fuel.

A World War II-era feud is threatening a pivotal alliance for Ukraine

A World War II-era feud is threatening a pivotal alliance for Ukraine

BOROVE, Ukraine—This summer, a small crowd gathered around six freshly exhumed human skeletons protruding from the ground on the edge of a sunflower field in Ukraine.

They didn’t belong to victims of Russia’s war on Ukraine, but to Poles massacred by Ukrainian ultranationalists who briefly allied with Nazi forces in World War II.

The discovery of burial sites like the one here has long eaten away at relations between the neighbors. Kyiv has lionized the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, known in Ukraine as the UPA, as freedom fighters who fought both the Soviets and Germans, but they are remembered in Poland for the slaughter of tens of thousands of Poles near the two countries’ modern-day borders.
