US border with Canada faces crisis amid uptick in migrant encounters

As Election Day approaches, border control has become a key topic among the presidential candidates. While much of the discussion focuses on the southern border, the northern border — the international border between Canada and the United States — often receives less attention.

The northern border is more than 5,000 miles long, double the length of the southern border, and is experiencing a record surge in migrant encounters. Data collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection show agents encountered migrants over 198,000 times in fiscal year 2024, more than seven times the encounters in 2021.

A firestorm has erupted over revelations that “Islamic religious concepts” have been abusively forced on elementary students at Montreal’s Bedford public school since 2016.

CHARLEBOIS: Canada’s dairy waste — time to legalize raw milk

A recent peer-reviewed study revealed that Canadian dairy farms dispose of between 600 million to one billion litres of milk on farms annually. This staggering waste, which should be inconceivable under a supply management system designed to balance production and demand, has brought renewed attention to the long-standing debate over the legalization of raw milk sales.

Muslim terrorist mom of 6 dies in deportation centre after Canadian government refuses to repatriate her from Syria

A Quebec mother of six, once detained in northeast Syria, has died while waiting for repatriation. The Canadian woman was known only by her initials F.J.

The federal government refused to repatriate her, but brought home her two daughters and four sons to Montreal earlier this year.

Global Affairs Canada’s position was that F.J. posed a security risk, and that there were no means to control her behaviour once she entered Canada.

Jamie Sarkonak: Your rising Spotify bill is paying for the Liberals’ diversity agenda

The Online Streaming Act, rushed through Parliament as Bill C-11, isn’t in full force yet. Already, though, it’s begun to claw back a generous cut of streamer revenues — and we’re already worse off for it.

In June, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) announced that it would be taking a five per cent cut of Canadian revenues from major foreign streaming services, such as Netflix and Youtube, starting in 2024, supposedly to invest in Canadian programming. In dollars, that’s supposed to bring in $200 million per year.

Anonymously funded anti-Poilievre ad campaign has links to former Liberal, NDP staffers

OTTAWA — A third-party group run by former NDP and Liberal staffers has launched an advertising campaign against Pierre Poilievre, in an attempt to go “dollar for dollar” with the Conservatives on ad spending.

The campaign comes as the prospect of a snap election grows and as Liberals gripe over what they see as slow and inadequate attempts to contrast the Conservative leader’s record with the Trudeau government through advertising.

Immigration prevented a recession last year, but looming changes could stall growth: economists

Reducing the number of new admissions to the country could have negative consequences for the economy and pose challenges for commerce, according to business advocates and economists alike.

Economic measures such as the gross domestic product (GDP) have been moving in a positive direction, economists say, in part because Canada’s population has continued to increase due to rising immigration levels.

Statistics Canada reported in March that the country’s population grew in 2023 by about 1.3 million, and 97.6 per cent of that growth was the result of immigration.

Quebec suspends 11 teachers for promoting ‘Islamist’ beliefs at Montreal public school

Eleven teachers in Quebec have been suspended for promoting what Premier François Legault referred to as “Islamist religious concepts” at a Montreal public school.

The now-former faculty members of Bedford Elementary included a mixture of men and women and many were of North-African descent.

Poilievre not buying Trudeau’s ‘about-face’ on immigration

Canadian grandmother repeatedly offered euthanasia while undergoing cancer treatment

A Nova Scotia grandmother has said that doctors offered her euthanasia three times while she was undergoing cancer treatment, making her feel that she was “better off dead.”

In an October video for the Christian Medical and Dental Association, a 51-year-old Nova Scotia woman anonymously revealed that her doctor asked if she knew about Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) euthanasia program just before she underwent her first mastectomy for breast cancer in 2022.

Amy Hamm: Let the terrorists speak, so we know who they are

I am a free speech absolutist. I am glad that Samidoun chanted, “Death to Canada,” and “Death to Israel,” on the steps of the Vancouver Art Gallery, because they unmasked themselves despite the keffiyehs hiding their faces.

I do not believe that Canada — or any country or jurisdiction — should have laws to criminalize speech — at all. So, it would be unprincipled and hypocritical were I to suggest that Canada’s growing population of antisemitic terrorist cheerleaders be told to shut up under threat of arrest and imprisonment.
