The Media Are Agents of Propaganda

Years of anti-ICE propaganda helped lead to a deadly confrontation in Minneapolis.

Last Thursday Vice President JD Vance joined a White House press briefing to discuss initiatives the Trump administration is taking to investigate the pervasive welfare fraud that has been discovered in Minnesota. He was inevitably asked questions about the death of Renee Good after she attempted to drive her SUV over an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Vance described the media coverage of the death as “disgraceful,” and followed up with this question: “You guys are meant to report the truth. How have you let yourselves become agents of propaganda?” The collective response of the “reporters” was to disregard the question, but the answer is vital to the future of the republic.

Russia and China co-operating more often and more closely in the Arctic, says NORAD commander

There’s been a subtle but significant shift in what NORAD has been seeing over the last year when it comes to mostly Russian — but also Chinese — activity in the Arctic, says the top commander of the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD).

U.S. Gen. Gregory Guillot tells CBC News that air and sea incursions into the zones just outside North America have not only become more frequent, but also more co-ordinated.

“I’d say the most consequential difference in 2025 has been the volume, the simultaneous volume,” Guillot said in an exclusive interview.

West Africa Under Jihadist Threat: Africa’s Sahel States Surrendering Sovereignty to Islamic Terrorist Groups

Al-Qaeda’s branch in Africa’s Sahel region has been laying siege to Mali’s capital city, as well as other areas of the country. The Algerian-based Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) and its affiliated Jama’a Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (Support Group for Islam and Muslims, JNIM) are cutting a wide swath of terrorist operations across West Africa’s Sahel region. This coalition of Jihadist groups now threatens the sovereignty of Mali and several other Sahelian states.

DOBBIE: Who runs things in Canada, anyway?

Some days are just like that: gut wrenching stories that beg to be told but are buried by perpetrators or brushed off by media then land on my desk with pleas for help.

Sometimes it’s about bureaucratic bungling, delay, refusal to comply with political orders, even lying to deputy ministers and ultimately to the minister so that the politician has no clue as to what is really going on. Occasionally, the tale smells bad as in the case of a federal agency which was recently in the news over a high-profile incident that revealed their arrogance. The agency has also been systematically withdrawing lucrative products from the marketplace to the apparent benefit of insiders.

As couple’s trial resumes, advocate questions Children’s Aid Society’s ‘outrageous’ decisions before boy died

Becky Hamber, Brandy Cooney Killer Moms

With the trial for two women accused of killing a 12-year-old boy they were trying to adopt now in its final weeks, the public deserves to know if and how the Children’s Aid Society (CAS) has been held accountable, says Ontario’s former child advocate.

But full transparency from the CAS is very unlikely, said Irwin Elman, who was in the independent watchdog role from 2008 until the Ford government closed his office in 2019.

“The child protection system is a closed system,” said Elman, who’s not involved in the trial but has been closely following it.

No one will lose their job over this horror story.

Canadians’ pandemic drinking habits have stuck. Here’s how bad it’s gotten, according to new report

Canadians are drinking more frequently than they did before the pandemic, with a new report showing a rise in both daily alcohol consumption and weekly binge drinking since 2019.

Documented in the 2025 Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Monitor eReport, released Monday, the findings suggest that habits formed during COVID-19 have not switched back to previous levels and may be contributing to higher levels of psychological distress.

White Lives Matter

It occurred to me yesterday that what we’re seeing online and in the streets in reaction to the shooting of Renee Good is very familiar. And then it occurred to me why. What we’re seeing is the Black Lives Matter playbook.

Think about it for a moment. Going back years to the start of Black Lives Matter the organization established a particular way of operating. They would identify a shooting, usually involving a white police officer and a black suspect, and they would quickly nationalize the outrage and demand justice for this individual. Activists would rush to television cameras demanding everyone say his name (or her name) and then there would be organized street protests against law enforcement, often making some demands.

Supreme Court revisits Trudeau-era WE Charity scandal in case that could reshape the law

The remnants of an early-pandemic political scandal land at the Supreme Court of Canada this week in a case that could have widespread ramifications, as the top court considers the limits of citizens’ ability to challenge some government decisions.

In June, 2020, then-prime minister Justin Trudeau said WE Charity, the international development group founded by the Kielburger brothers, would run a youth summer jobs program worth about $900-million. Conflict-of-interest accusations flared, and the plan was scrapped soon thereafter.

‘A giant step back’: Liberals rage against red meat after new food pyramid guidelines release

Eating real food is not quite that simple, and might even constitute “bowing to Big Meat,” depending on who you ask.

After Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his department dropped the new federal dietary guidelines — which have been historically referred to as the food pyramid — the recommendation of eating “real food,” including red meat and full-fat dairy, was seen as an attack by many in the dietary sphere.

Canada must stand up to Donald Trump — or there will be no one to stand up for Canada

It is not just the attack on Venezuela, breaches of the United Nations’ Charter, or the use of illegal force that still somehow left a dictatorship in place.

It is not just the threats to annex Greenland or to make Canada the 51st state — both of which would violate the territorial integrity of sovereign states protected under international law.

It’s not just the admiration that U.S. President Donald Trump has for Russia’s Vladimir Putin or Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu, both in the process of illegally annexing territory.

The Elbow People are afraid! I doubt Canada will receive support beyond “words”.

Uber-rich lead rise in diagnoses of ‘longevity fixation syndrome’

There are two certainties in life: death and taxes. It seems now the uber-rich and famous appear to believe that they may be able to avoid them both.

Leading health professionals have recognised a new disorder, longevity fixation syndrome, which they say is an obsession with longevity so all-consuming it begins to take over daily life.

Now a Swiss clinic has said that it has seen a “significant uptick” in clients coming to them exhibiting symptoms.
