On Thursday the Trump Administration released its new National Security Strategy. It has no named author, but Michael Anton’s style is all over it. Here in Europe, the usual suspects are freaking out about its section on the troubled continent.

Federal records show a founder of a Palestinian activist organization is currently working inside the RCMP’s federal policing branch, prompting fresh scrutiny over political advocacy within Canada’s national police force.
Blacklock’s Reporter says Access To Information documents reveal the founder of the Muslim Federal Employees Network uses an RCMP email address, though the force redacted the individual’s name.

The Carney government is moving to tweak Canada’s hate speech laws so that biblical scripture could qualify as criminal hate speech.
The Criminal Code currently prescribes jail terms of up to two years for “willful promotion of hatred.” However, there is an exemption if that statement is a “good faith” opinion “based on a belief in a religious text.”
But Bill C-9 — the Carney government’s first major justice bill — is looking to remove the religious exemption for hate speech. It’s a reform that the Bloc Québécois has been seeking since 2023, primarily to make it easier to prosecute Islamists.
Prosecute Islamists? Well intentioned maybe but unlikely to translate into reality.
Christians will almost certainly face far more prosecutions than either Islam or Judaism.
The militant gays, trannies, liberal-left and DEI acolytes are salivating.

Europe’s war on speech and Hollywood’s corporate implosion signal the end of an era and (perhaps) the beginning of another.
In his brilliant book on the precariousness of Western Civilization, , scholar Spencer Klavan cites an epic historical change that took place in a single moment. It was the Visigoths burning the city of Rome in 410 AD, observed by Saint Jerome. “Who would believe that Rome would fall, she who had been built up by the conquest of the whole world?” Jerome wrote. Klavan captured the irony that evaded even the saint. “But even as he wrote these words, Jerome himself had already completed a Latin translation of the Bible which would serve as a foundation stone of Christendom in western Europe.”

The future of the federal government’s anti-hate Bill C-9 is unclear after Justice Minister Sean Fraser’s office brokered a deal with the Bloc Québécois without getting it approved by the Prime Minister’s Office, sources tell CBC News.
Bill C-9 proposes new Criminal Code offences, including one that would make it a crime to intentionally promote hatred against identifiable groups in public using certain hate- or terrorism-related symbols.
It would also make hate-motivated crimes a specific offence and crack down on wilfully intimidating and obstructing people outside places of worship.
Smoke and mirrors. That bill will pass.
Regarding Pantone's Cloud Dancer, the name is an insult to Native Americans.
Not only that, but the head of Pantone is a Republican. If you are not seething with anger, check your privilege. You're probably white. pic.twitter.com/ZlRYX11ypB

Without much fanfare, the U.S. government has launched what could be a seismic shift in American foreign policy with its new National Security Strategy. And for Canada, the impact of the NSS could be profound.
We already know Donald Trump’s approach to relations with Canada has complicated our economic and security environment. But the NSS tries make coherent a foreign policy that, so far, has appeared to centre on the changing whims of the President – a vision that is inherently hostile to Canada and other allies in alarming ways.
I am beginning to wonder just who exactly feels threatened.
Minnesota AG Keith Ellison (D) says Trump's criticism of the Somali-related fraud scheme in his state is reminiscent of the "Third Reich."
Calling out massive fraud that robs BILLIONS of dollars from hardworking Americans now makes you a "Nazi."
What a complete joke. pic.twitter.com/PRdTFienIM

The New Year’s Eve concert on the Champs Élysées has been cancelled for security reasons. Paris was supposed to host its usual spectacle. A free open-air concert at the Arc de Triomphe, video projections on the monument and the midnight festivities that once drew close to a million people. Instead, the concert has been scrapped. It will be replaced on national television with a prerecorded concert filmed weeks ago with a handpicked crowd to mimic a celebration Paris no longer believes it can safely host. A capital once famed for its public life now performs it under studio conditions.
It marks the collapse of what used to be one of the simplest pleasures of Parisian life. For decades families and friends would spill out onto the streets on New Year’s Eve. Families, couples carrying a bottle of champagne, tourists wrapped in scarves, all drifting towards the Champs Élysées to count down the final seconds of the year. It was spontaneous and cheerful and open to everyone. That Paris no longer exists.

The Democratic president and his top advisers rejected recommendations that could have eased the border crisis that helped return Donald Trump to the White House.
In the weeks after Joseph R. Biden Jr. was elected president, advisers delivered a warning: His approach to immigration could prove disastrous.
Mr. Biden had pledged to treat unauthorized immigrants more humanely than President Donald J. Trump, who generated widespread backlash by separating migrant children from their parents.
But Mr. Biden was now president-elect, and his positions threatened to drastically increase border crossings, experts advising his transition team warned in a Zoom briefing in the final weeks of 2020, according to people with direct knowledge of that briefing. That jump, they said, could provoke a political crisis.
“Chaos” was the word the advisers had used in a memo during the campaign.
“Chaos” was the plan as it is in Canada.

Since late last month, Toronto resident Hazat Wahriz has been approached by Afghan friends and acquaintances in the U.S. desperately asking about refuge in Canada.
With Washington pausing and reviewing the entire asylum system and immigration processing of applicants from certain countries including Afghanistan, he said his compatriots south of the border are fearful of losing their already precarious status and being deported to the embrace of the Taliban.
No nation needs “more Islam”.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth knows something the rest of us should embrace.
For the last five years, Communist China’s military spending has grown consistently. Published reports suggest annual budget increases of 6.8-7.2%, rising from approximately $209 billion in 2021 to $246 billion in 2025. And that is only what is reported. The real numbers are undoubtedly much higher.

Yao Zhang says she doesn’t have any friends, yet every week, thousands of her 175,000 YouTube subscribers tune in to her channel to listen to her live takes on Chinese current affairs.
“China isn’t a democratic country. Everyone suffers in that regime,” Zhang told Radio-Canada during an interview held somewhere between Montreal and Quebec City.
Concerned for her safety, the 39-year-old guards any information that could give away her location.
