Democrats Aren’t Far Behind Canada In Efforts To Ban Christian Speech

Canada’s dominant Liberal Party has introduced legislation that may soon make Christian speech illegal.

In March, the Canadian House of Commons passed Bill C-9, also known as the “Combatting Hate Act.” The bill was introduced under the guise of mitigating antisemitic attacks in the wake of Hamas’ violent attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Liberals claimed it was developed to protect religious communities, but C-9 eagerly expanded to prohibit public displays of “hate,” including “Islamophobia, homophobia, and transphobia.” The Canadian Liberals have used so-called hate speech as a Trojan horse to enact censorship laws — the same thing American Democrats are trying to do here.

Panama Canal Shows Cold War Playing Out in Slow Motion

The struggle over Panama is not a trade dispute. It is a pre-kinetic tug-of-war between Beijing and Washington — and Canada should be watching.

OTTAWA — The Panama Canal is one of the great arteries of the world economy, a narrow thread of water through which roughly five percent of global maritime trade passes each year. For three decades, the ports at each end of it — Balboa on the Pacific, Cristobal on the Atlantic — were operated by a subsidiary of CK Hutchison, the Hong Kong conglomerate controlled by the family of billionaire Li Ka-shing. That arrangement ended this year when Panama’s Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional, the government physically seized the terminals, and Beijing erupted in fury, threatening that Panama would “pay a heavy price.”

On patrol with Canadian forces securing the Arctic as global threats grow

A simple row of spruce trees marked the finish line for Canadian army reservists and combat members after a marathon two months pushing through one of the harshest environments on Earth: Canada’s vast Arctic.

The patrol, which ended on Friday in Churchill, Manitoba, was the largest northern mission in the history of the Canadian Rangers – a branch of the Canadian Armed Forces responsible for monitoring the country’s remote regions. For 5,200km (3,200 miles), they moved across the Arctic, following a route that had not been attempted in 80 years.

They drove snowmobiles across ice-covered terrain, navigating blizzards and high winds as they travelled for hours between remote northern communities. Some nights, they camped on the ice in tents as temperatures plunged to -60C (-76F).

LILLEY: Tories can thank Donald Trump with Mark Carney on verge of majority

By the time Mark Carney turns off the light and heads to bed Monday night, he will know for certain that he is presiding over a majority government.

Carney and his Liberals currently have 171 seats in the House of Commons; the three byelections taking place Monday should give them 174 seats. That is still a tight majority, but it’s a majority nonetheless.

Bad blood

At 1 a.m. on March 25, a gunman approached the gate surrounding the Woodbridge, Ont., mansion of Paul Borrelli – an executive at Green Infrastructure Partners Inc. (GIP), the sister construction company to Canadian waste giant GFL Environmental Inc. – and sprayed the front of the property with bullets.

A few days earlier, a similar scene played out in midtown Toronto, when around 2 a.m. a gunman opened fire on the home of Mr. Borrelli’s GIP colleague Sean Goldberg, the son of investment banker Barry Goldberg, who helped finance GFL in its early days.

Jerry Amernic: As the greatest generation fades away, so does Canada’s historical literacy

Canada recently said goodbye to Burdett Sisler, a man from Fort Erie, Ont., who was said to be Canada’s oldest living person. Two weeks shy of his 111th birthday when he died on April 2, he was also our oldest surviving veteran of the Second World War.

Sisler never went abroad to fight, but served in Canada as an army telecommunications mechanic, deploying radar technology to shoot down German bombers. Radar, a new technology back then, was crucial to the war effort and top secret at the time.

A Killing Exposes Deep Rifts in Canada’s Iranian Diaspora

Masood Masjoody’s warnings over the years seemed unsettling, even sometimes outlandish: He was not safe in Vancouver. His university was protecting agents of Iran’s regime. His fellow Iranian activists wanted him dead.

After he was fired from a job teaching math at a university in British Columbia, Mr. Masjoody, 45, became preoccupied with Iranian pro-monarchy activists. He alleged they were plotting his demise because he had begun to oppose the group’s advocacy around restoring a shah, or “king” in Farsi, in their homeland.

There’s a silver lining in the Iran war ceasefire for Canada’s oil and gas industry

The energy fallout of the U.S. and Israel-Iran war is a reminder that life is often unfair.

The United States, which started the war with a surprise attack on Iran in the middle of negotiations, could escape largely unscathed in terms of its energy supply — even as its international reputation takes a hit and U.S. inflation spikes as a result of oil prices.

But U.S. allies in Asia and Europe, who were neither consulted nor warned about the U.S.-Israeli attack, are facing sustained shortages.

Canada Poised To Criminalize Christianity With Ban On Citing Biblical Truths

Leftists may claim that they work for the common good, but what really drives them is often nothing less than religious fanaticism.

Case in point: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and his new anti-Christian bill (C-9). Not content with the current hate speech laws in force in Canada, Carney is pushing stricter restrictions on speech with a new law that would prohibit using religious texts as a defense of speech the left deems offensive. According to a report in The Telegraph, “Bill C-9, the Act is a wide-ranging piece of legislation aimed at targeting what Carney’s government claims is ‘rising anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, homophobia and transphobia.’”

Nearly 60% of Canadians support becoming a full member of the European Union, poll says

Nearly three in five Canadians support the idea of Canada joining the European Union, a new poll suggests.

A Nanos Research survey conducted for The Globe and Mail shows that 57 per cent of respondents would either support (28 per cent) or somewhat support (29 per cent) Canada becoming a full member of the EU.

The results also show that 32 per cent of respondents were either opposed or somewhat opposed to the idea, while 12 per cent were unsure.

Maybe those in favour hope they can Schengen their way out of here?

Ontario town could become home to ‘human body farm’

A town in Ontario is planning to open an “outdoor research facility,” commonly termed a “human body farm,” where the process of decaying bodies will be observed.

Kingsville has been eyed as the location for a facility proposed by the University of Windsor’s forensic professor and taphonomist researcher Shari Forbes.
