Bruce Pardy: Racial discounts for violent criminals was inevitable in equity-obsessed Canada

In December 2021, Everton Downey stabbed his girlfriend Melissa Blimkie 15 times in a stairwell at a shopping mall in Burnaby. She died. Downey was convicted of second-degree murder. In February, the British Columbia Supreme Court sentenced him to life in prison, the minimum sentence set out in the Criminal Code. The Crown sought no chance for parole for at least 15 years. But Associate Chief Justice Heather Holmes decided on 12 years instead, in part because of “mitigating circumstances of his background,” as described in his Impact of Race and Culture Assessment (IRCA). The time to parole was reduced because of Downey’s experience of being Black.

As mayor of Vaughan, I’m urging Mark Carney to meet our Jewish community

I have an urgent request for Prime Minister Mark Carney: please come to Vaughan, Ont., to meet with our Jewish community.

As Vaughan’s mayor, I want you to know that Jews here feel angry, scared, defiant, tired, shocked and beleaguered. Who can blame them? I’ve lived my entire life in this country, but I have never before witnessed the shocking levels of antisemitism and Jew hatred we now see so regularly. I never imagined I would. Not here. Not in Canada.

Del Duca is lying.

He supported the Liberal Party and that means he supported their immigration policy that opened the floodgates to incompatible cultures like Islam.

I have no doubt he would smear anyone who opposed the death cult as an Islamophobe and a racist.

I hate that these pols are trying to wash their hands of responsibility.

Canadian immigration officers investigating hundreds identified by extortion task force

Next election cycle

Canadian immigration officials are investigating hundreds of foreign citizens identified by B.C.’s anti-extortion unit, according to new figures released to Global News.

The Canada Border Services Agency said it had launched probes into 296 people who were “brought to our attention by B.C Extortion Task Force partner agencies as persons of interest.”

The latest statistics, which are as of Feb. 4, represent a sharp increase from just a month ago, when the task force said that just over 100 CBSA investigations were underway.

Divisive identity politics risk fragmenting Canada further

Canada finds itself listing in stormy waters, split between several solitudes. We are no longer just divided between French and English. Now we are torn along national identity, media ecosystems, class, and basic beliefs about Canadian values and culture. It is doubtful that Canada will be able to remain a unified country if we continue under an incompetent skipper, Mr. Carney, at the helm.

The heartbreak is that Canada, our beloved Canada, has enormous potential. Tragically, however, we have been governed for years by people who, whether for personal gain or due to ineptitude, failed to do the hard work of nation‑building. Instead, they fueled the destruction of our national identity and values, and the degradation of our economy.

Activist warns of ‘propaganda’ as CSIS officials tout agency’s new approach to Indigenous people

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service acknowledges its past investigating of Indigenous people has left a legacy of mistrust that persists today, but officials at the spy agency say the organization is mending its ways.

That’s the main message two CSIS officials, speaking on the condition they not be identified, impressed on CBC Indigenous during a recent sit-down discussion at the agency’s Ottawa headquarters.

Long gone are the days, they said, of CSIS’s expansive “Native extremism” program, in which CSIS officers labelled Indigenous activists as domestic extremists and potential terrorists in sweeping countrywide investigations.

OLDCORN: Liberals $200 million racist slush fund

Ottawa’s latest endowment isn’t ‘equity’ — it’s state-sanctioned discrimination against every Canadian who doesn’t fit its racial criteria.

Another week, another multi-million dollar segregation of your tax dollars by the federal government. This time, it’s a so-called “Black-led Philanthropic Endowment Fund,” which is a permanent $200 million pot of money, courtesy of Budget 2021, reserved exclusively for “Black-led and Black-serving organizations.”

Ottawa announces $200M for black-led organizations

The federal government has announced plans to create a $200-million endowment fund intended to provide long-term financial support to black-led, black-focused and black-serving organizations across Canada.

The announcement was made at the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia, during an event marking the launch of Black History Month.

Looks like slimy vote buying identity politics paid for with tax payer money to me.

Celebrating Kwanzaa? Me neither

I’M WRITING this on Boxing Day 2025, an official holiday in the United Kingdom and many other countries, especially those such as Canada and Australia which once formed the British Empire, but it is not always called Boxing Day. In European countries, and those unfortunate parts of the world that remained untouched by the civilising hand of British imperialism, it is often known as ‘Second Christmas Day’, ‘Zweiter Weihnachtsfeiertag’ in German, or in French the more mellifluous ‘Le lendemain de Noël’.

Guilt Isn’t Genetic: We cannot continue treating one another as carriers of moral disease.

Nicki Minaj is not a theologian, a historian, or a political philosopher. However, during a Sunday conversation with Erika Kirk at Turning Point USA’s annual AmericaFest, she articulated a moral truth that much of our culture — especially our political culture — seems determined to forget. Her remarks about beauty, pride, and childhood dignity unexpectedly point toward one of the central crises of our time: our inability to forgive, and our obsession with inherited guilt.

KLEIN: Angry words on the streets of Canada say it all – Division is growing

The other day, someone asked me for change. I said, “Sorry, I don’t have any.” The response? “F-off and go back to your own country.” It caught me off guard—not because of the aggression, which has sadly become common on our streets, but because of the assumption. Go back to my own country? This is my country. I was born here. I’m Canadian, and I’m proud of it.

MORGAN: Race-based policies are sinking Canada

Imagine if we abolished the Indian Act and removed special legal status for indigenous peoples.

Then, treaties were terminated, and federal responsibility for indigenous affairs was transferred to the provinces.

What if we eliminated “Indian Status” and assimilated indigenous peoples into mainstream Canadian society as equal citizens?
