‘Journalism’ Is Totally Broken

As we gnash our teeth about the corruption of the 60 Minutes “journalists” who are whining that they can’t spread propaganda without scrutiny anymore, let’s recall that the problem is not limited to a few bad apples.

Pretty much the entire barrel is rotten. If you pick through the apples in there, you will find a few that are still edible or even good; for the most part, the lot of them should just be thrown out.

One of the biggest stories of the past few years in our neighbor to the north is the fake scandal of the state-sponsored and church-run residential schools for the native population.

Canada bill targeting refugees feared to signal new era of US-style border policy

Canada’s Liberal government is pushing through sweeping new legislation targeting refugees that observers fear will usher in a new era of US-style border policies, fueling xenophobia and the scapegoating of immigrants.

Bill C-12, or Strengthening Canada’s Immigration System and Borders Act, includes many changes around border security along with new ineligibility rules for refugee claimants.

It was fast-tracked and passed through a third reading in the House of Commons on 11 December before members of parliament rose for the holidays. If it receives Senate approval in February, the bill will become law.

US carries out airstrikes against Islamic State ‘terrorist scum’ in Nigeria, Trump says

Donald Trump has said the US carried out airstrikes against Islamic State militants in north-west Nigeria on Thursday, after spending weeks decrying the group for targeting Christians.

The president said in a post on his Truth Social platform: “Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!

“I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was. The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing.”

Christmas: The Time for Hope

The world being what it is, there is always plenty of justification for pessimism. Christmas can be especially difficult if we are facing illness, divorce, or financial hardship. The season’s jollity taunts and rebukes us. Our thoughts may turn to those who, without expectation of return, supported us and believed in us, in the vague but civilization-sustaining hope that one day we would vindicate their faith. That these people are too often out of our minds, crowded as we are with the mere business of life, contributes to the moral drift of middle age. We find ourselves further and further from whatever we set out to become. And yet hope, whether it be for eternal salvation or something nearer to hand, must be embraced. We are an optimistic people. That is our signature strength.

Iron Maiden at 50: how heavy metal became mainstream

The death of the Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne this July, and the huge reaction it provoked worldwide, represented something of a landmark to us heavy metal fans. After decades of having been shunned, scorned and ridiculed, this genre had not only become acceptable, but the passing of the frontman of heavy metal’s founding fathers became an occasion for national mourning.

How different it had been in the 1980s. In that decade, heavy metal was deemed a form of music made by morons, for morons. And the undisputed kings of the genre in that decade were Iron Maiden. They were certainly my favourite band at the tail end of that decade – I first saw them live in concert at Wembley Arena in 1990. But I was an outlier. Being a rare metaller aged 15 wasn’t much fun. The cool kids were into The Cure and The Stone Roses.

50 Years?

KLEIN: Is the criminal justice system now only a game of words?

A crime is a crime. That should not be controversial. Yet in Canada today, whether a law is enforced often depends less on the Criminal Code and more on political fashion, prosecutorial discretion, or judicial interpretation. That is not justice. That is chaos.

This is not about ideology. It is about the basic purpose of law. If Parliament passes laws that are routinely ignored, softened, or selectively enforced, then the law itself becomes meaningless. And when laws lose meaning, public order erodes. Canadians are seeing the consequences of that erosion every day.

Hundreds of thousands newly displaced as Islamic State insurgency expands in Mozambique

More than 300,000 people have been displaced by an Islamic State insurgency in Mozambique since July, amid growing fears that authorities lack a workable plan to end the fighting.

With wars in Ukraine, Gaza and Sudan attracting more attention and foreign aid falling, the grinding conflict in Mozambique has been largely ignored or forgotten. More than 1 million people have been displaced, many of them two, three or even four times.

Muslims always be Killing.

Mexico seizes Olympic medals, motorcycles in raids seemingly linked to hunt for Canadian fugitive Ryan Wedding

Mexican authorities say they’ve seized motorcycles, Olympic medals and drugs in a series of raids — a move seemingly linked to the hunt for Canadian fugitive Ryan Wedding.

The operation amounts to the most significant series of moves publicly acknowledged by Mexico that appear to be in connection with the manhunt for the alleged cartel-linked drug lord.

The government’s statement didn’t identify Wedding by name, but said the raids targeted a foreign former Olympian listed among U.S. authorities’ most wanted fugitives.

Trump’s Crime-Busting Policies Spark Historic Murder Plunge Nationwide

There’s an episode of The Simpsons from the third season where the character Sideshow Bob marries Bart’s Aunt Selma to kill her. When his scheme falls apart and he’s hauled back to jail, he shouts, “I’ll be back. You can’t keep the Democrats out of the White House forever, and when they get in, I’m back on the streets with all my criminal buddies.”

Change Democrats to Liberals.
