The halal meat market in Canada is a growing industry — increasing by almost $1 billion over the past decade.
These numbers are based on statistics estimated by the food professor or Sylvain Charlebois’, Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University.
On July 26, an Islamic convention called “LIT” was held at the Embassy Plaza in the Montreal suburb of Laval. What was said there raises serious concerns about how some Muslim communities integrate into Canadian society.
The conference’s website states that the target audience of “Montreal’s largest Islamic convention” was youth aged 15 to 30, and its purpose was to “unify the Muslims.” Yet based on recordings of the talks reviewed by National Post, the purpose of unifying Muslim youth appears to include encouraging them to detach themselves from Canadian society and its “immoral” western law-based paradigm, in favour of a community-based Islamic one.
Barely a month after the senseless murder of a police officer from PDQ 26 in Montreal, two female police officers from the same sector were disarmed and beaten last weekend during a routine intervention.
In the early hours of Monday morning, shortly before 2 a.m., two SPVM police officers intercepted individuals for a minor traffic violation.
According to our information, the offenders were riding without helmets on a single electric scooter on Mistral Street in the Villeray district.
Following this intervention, the two men allegedly resisted and struck the two police officers. One of them reportedly even managed to disarm one of the officers by seizing her expandable baton. It is unclear, however, whether he used it to strike the officers.
The two young women who were with the two suspects also reportedly participated in the skirmish, but in a more moderate way.
In total, four suspects were arrested. Mohamed Mountassir, 25, faces the most serious charges: disarming a peace officer, assaulting a peace officer, and obstructing police work. The judge granted him bail pending his trial, subject to certain conditions.
Samir Ben Zerraouia, 25, was charged with assault and obstructing a police officer. He too was released pending trial.
The two women, Imane Chemouri, 25, and Doha Sakri, 23, have been released, but could soon be charged with assaulting police officers and obstructing their work.
All have been released.

Halal meat is no longer a niche product in Canada. It is sold by major grocers, restaurant chains, independent butchers and institutional food-service providers. Canada’s halal meat market is estimated to be worth roughly $2 billion annually, supported by a Muslim population that numbered nearly 1.8 million in the 2021 census and has continued to grow.

The similarity is often noted between the Ukraine and Iran wars: Mad billionaire autocrat with dreams of empire attempts to subjugate another country by force of arms; though seemingly in possession of overwhelming military advantage, is repelled by defenders armed with desperation, cunning and modern technology; now finds himself caught in a trap of his own making, unable either to advance or retreat.
Coyne is hitting the pipe again.
Young people still looking for summer work are expected to flock to a Toronto convention centre today for a shot at a job at Canada’s largest agricultural fair.
The Canadian National Exhibition says it has received nearly 50,000 applications ahead of its annual job fair, which is set to take place at the Enercare Centre.
Montreal refugee advocates say they are hearing from a growing number of Haitians in the United States who are considering coming to Canada after the Trump administration moved to end deportation protections for hundreds of thousands of people.
“They’re real stressed. They don’t go out. They stay in their apartment,” said Thierry Jean-Baptiste of the Bureau de la communauté haïtienne de Montréal (BCHM).
“They order groceries. They are in fear of ICE.”
A vast number of young people brought up in the last decade and more of Liberal rule are now so disillusioned, dispirited and despondent that they would prefer a dictatorship rather than a democracy.
The Liberals can take a fair amount of responsibility for leaving 18-to-29-year-olds so jaundiced, but educational leaders must also accept their role in failing to teach youngsters the importance of history.
Unfortunately the lunatics run the Canadian asylum.
This year, Canada’s population decreased, the first time since Confederation 160 years ago.
The reasons vary, but include a reduction in mass immigration, a very low birthrate and a stagnant economy sending ambitious Canadians to — horror of horrors! — the brutal nation just to the south.
That decrease is smoke and mirrors. The Liberals continue to import replacement migrants.
The opening of the Gordie Howe bridge promises more efficient transport between Canada and the United States — though not necessarily lower prices for consumers — trucking firms say.
The new span between Detroit, Mich., and Windsor, Ont., will make for better traffic flow, smoother security procedures and competitive toll rates that could save large trucking companies up to $100,000 a month, says Canadian Trucking Alliance CEO Stephen Laskowski, whose association represents more 4,500 carriers and suppliers.

A group of Canadians detained overseas for allegedly being part of ISIS will “highly likely” pose a threat when they return home, warns an intelligence document obtained by Global News.
The Integrated Threat Assessment Centre report was written in June, after Iraq said it had taken custody of an unspecified number of ISIS members from Canada.
The suspects are liable to contribute to extremism once they returned to Canada, “either directly through an act of violence or indirectly by radicalizing others,” the intelligence report said.
Bet they’re considered cultural assets by the LPC.

Spy charges against Canadian intern at NATO triggers ‘cascade of issues’ for multiple agencies
OTTAWA — A Canadian intern accused of spying at NATO’s strategic headquarters will make her first appearance in a Belgium court Tuesday to seek bail, and while the hearing will be held behind closed doors, the outcome will be released to the public.
The female suspect is accused of working on “behalf of a third country and of being a member of a criminal organization,” according to the Belgian federal prosecutor’s office, adding that the chamber will decide if “pre-trial detention should be maintained.”
… As per protocol, the intern was vetted by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and the RCMP before being hired at NATO.

With more than 350,000 Haitians and Syrians set to lose their protected immigration status in the U.S. today, will Canada see another influx of asylum seekers at the border?
“In the past, a lot of people came to Canada when they were losing their status in the United States and Canada saw a pretty significant surge at the border, and especially at irregular border crossings,” Toronto-based immigration lawyer Joel Sandaluk told CTV’s Your Morning on Monday.
“That can’t happen anymore.”
I’ll believe it when I see it.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — While Canadians have been focused on Donald Trump’s hounding them about becoming the “51st state” and squeezing their cross-border trade, the U.S. president has been quietly fiddling around with the rules for waters along the Canada-U.S. border.
In late April, the president signed House Joint Resolution 140 into law, rolling back a Biden-era mining moratorium on more than 200,000 acres of U.S. federal lands near the Boundary Waters watershed in Minnesota that drains into Canadian waters.
