A commemorative T-shirt on the Olympics online store marking the 1936 Games in Berlin under Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist, or Nazi, government caught the eye of German media on Wednesday.
I don’t see a scandal here.

Globe & Mail says you’re transphobic
In the wake of the Tumbler Ridge shooting, false claims about trans people spread online
On Wednesday afternoon, the RCMP identified the shooter in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., as an 18-year-old transgender woman who lived in the small community and had a history of mental-health issues.
But before the shooter was even identified, speculation around their gender identity was proliferating across social media.
Since the RCMP, in an emergency alert on Tuesday, described the shooter as a “female in a dress with brown hair,” prominent American right-wing influencers, social-media accounts and Reddit communities quickly spread and amplified anti-trans rhetoric.
This silly piece was written by the Globe’s “On-line culture reporter”.
I bet she learned what Ratio’d means.

The media needs to stop gaslighting us about the reality of trans mass shooters
Another mass shooting, and another devastated community.
And once again, elites in the media class and public officials are so terrified of offending that they don’t dare ask the obvious question: Why are so many of the most horrifying attacks carried out by people who identify as “trans”?
After Canada suffered one of its deadliest school massacres Tuesday, police identified the biologically male shooter as 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar — noting that he began to transition six years ago.
That’s right: another deadly attack by someone who is transgender.
Here is the TEEN BOY who you described as a “she” today.
Here is who you had numerous run ins with for what you typify as only “mental health calls” that included ARSON (Yes, that’s a criminal matter so where are the criminal charges?).

Returning From Washington, Tory MP Jivani Says Mexico Is Ahead of Canada in Trade Talks
Conservative MP Jamil Jivani says Mexico is further ahead of Canada when it comes to negotiations on the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
“Mexico—the third partner in our trilateral trade agreement with the U.S.—is further ahead in its engagement with the U.S. than Canada is,” Jivani said in a Feb. 8 op-ed in The National Post.
Jivani, who recently returned from a trip to Washington to meet with officials in the Trump administration, noted that Mexico and the United States began formal talks on the USMCA on Jan. 28.A week later, the two countries announced a joint action plan on critical minerals.

Zelensky wants to hold elections. Are they possible under martial law?
President Zelensky has tasked members of parliament with finding a way to hold elections while martial law is in effect by the end of the month, his chief legal advisor has told The Times.
“We want to be ready to conduct elections,” said Iryna Mudra, the deputy head of Ukraine’s presidential office. “Parliament has created a working group to develop changes to election legislation, and they are due to report their findings by the end of February.”
Parliamentary elections are not being considered by the working group, meaning that, even if ousted as president, Zelensky would still control the largest grouping of MPs.
WTF?

Trump Privately Weighs Quitting USMCA Trade Pact He Signed
President Donald Trump is privately musing about exiting the North American trade pact, people familiar with the matter said, injecting further uncertainty about the deal’s future into pivotal renegotiations involving the US, Canada and Mexico.
The president has asked aides why he shouldn’t withdraw from the agreement, which he signed during his first term, though he has stopped short of flatly signaling that he will do so, according to the people who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe internal discussions.

Beijing’s Hidden Army: How 2,294 United Front Cells Advance China’s Interests in Four Leading Democracies
WASHINGTON/OTTAWA – A groundbreaking study has mapped 2,294 organizations with proven links to the Chinese Communist Party’s “united front” influence apparatus across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany—with Canada exhibiting nearly five times the per-capita penetration rate of the U.S. and the highest density of CCP-linked organizations among all four democracies.

NYT’s marijuana turn is a victory for public health
Almost seven years ago, the New York Times invited me to speak to its editorial board about the dangers of legalising marijuana. I was excited to get the chance to tell this key institution of American life what I — and many other researchers — knew to be true: that legalising and commercialising the drug would be a public health disaster. Suffice to say, I didn’t receive much support.
That is why this week’s turn of events is so significant. On Monday, the paper published an editorial entitled: “It’s time for America to admit it has a weed problem.” It argued that marijuana’s harms are more serious than commonly acknowledged, and that commercialisation and social normalisation are amplifying them.
Jamie Sarkonak: Immigration minister’s refusal to deport knifepoint robber is another justice failure
By the time repeat violent offender Oral Carver Lewis threatened to kill an Ontario Crown prosecutor, he had already been under a deportation order for two years.
“You b–ch, I’m going to kill you,” he told her during court in January 2022. “You watch, I’m going to f–king kill you…. When I get out of jail, I’m going to kill you, Crown. I’m going to find you and kill you. I’m going to kill you the f–k.” A few months earlier, he made vulgar comments to her and pulled his pants down in court, exposing himself.
