The Road Ahead for America and Canada

Under the Trudeau regime, Canada and the U.S. may have been working at cross purposes but that will not be the case after Canada has elected a Conservative government.

When Justin Trudeau was first elected prime minister of Canada in 2015, it was partly because of the sort of empty bombast that had helped get Barak Obama first elected president in 2008. Obama had promised “Hope and Change” while Trudeau promised “Sunny Ways.” By the time Trudeau was first elected, America had already soured on Obama, among other things because of his abysmal economic management, his divisive rhetoric, and his stoking of racism.

Trump’s fentanyl ultimatum puts Canada’s ‘super labs’ under microscope

The growth of illegal Canadian fentanyl production came into focus over the weekend after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump reportedly gave Canadian government leaders a clear impression that the runaway drug problem is his top priority, even in Canada-U.S. relations.

Canada’s China class must be concerned.

What does Donald Trump want from Canada? The after-dinner surprise has yet to be served

We know a lot about that dinner in Mar-a-Lago: Who sat where, what was discussed, the menu (“Mary Trump’s meat loaf,” among other things), and, above all, what made the get together so urgent – namely president-elect Donald Trump’s social media post promising that his first day in office would bring a 25-per-cent tariff on Canadian exports to the United States.

But why is Mr. Trump talking about hitting Canada – the No. 1 buyer of American exports? That’s not at all clear.

So long as Trump continues to humiliate Justin I’m good.

Despite humiliating dinner with Trump, Trudeau is showing leadership

I’m glad Justin Trudeau managed to get face to face with Donald Trump and make the case that Canada shouldn’t be socked with tariffs that would send our economy into a recessionary spin.

Obviously it’s better to talk directly to the Great Khan in his stately Mar-a-Lago pleasure dome than to be left on the outside peeking in. If you’re invited for dinner, of course you go, and you make the very best of it. On the face of it, it must mean something positive that Trump agreed to see the PM so quickly after dropping his tariff bombshell. Doesn’t it?

Meet La Barbie: the Tren de Aragua thug accused of turning a hotel into a sex trafficking empire

After allegedly being imprisoned, beaten and raped, the woman needed help to make it across the lobby of the hotel so she could finally escape.

Emerging into downtown El Paso, court documents state, she made her way to an immigration centre, where she readily admitted to a US Border Patrol agent that she had crossed illegally into the country from Mexico just months earlier.

Some time after arriving in the city in southern Texas, she told investigators, she had been drugged, assaulted, and forced into prostitution by a woman called Estefania Primera.

Canada’s ambassador says Trudeau told Trump the Canadian border can’t be compared to Mexico’s

TORONTO (AP) — Canada’s ambassador to the United States said Sunday that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was successful in getting President-elect Donald Trump and key Cabinet nominees to understand that lumping Canada in with Mexico over the flow of drugs and migrants into the U.S. is unfair.

Kirsten Hillman, Canada’s ambassador in Washington, told The Associated Press in an interview that Trudeau’s dinner with Trump on Friday was a very important step in trying to get Trump to back away from threatened tariffs on all products from the major American trading partner.

Opening CAIR’s Books

A court case might finally reveal if the Council of American-Islamic Relations has been the recipient of terrorist funding.

The Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has long been suspected of receiving funding from terrorist groups and terror-supporting countries. Now, a federal magistrate has ruled that it must open its donor files and books on its assets as part of a discovery request in a lawsuit by a former employee.

Without A Reckoning, The First U.S. Terror Attack Caused By Open Borders Won’t Be The Last

Surprisingly little news coverage followed America’s first terror attack by an illegal border-crossing immigrant on U.S. soil. On Saturday, 22-year-old Mauritanian Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi was found dead of an apparent hanging suicide in his Cook County, Illinois jail cell. America must learn from this to prevent the next attacks on U.S. soil by border-infiltrating jihadists.

Abdallahi illegally jumped the border from Tijuana to San Diego in March 2023 and was freed by U.S. Border Patrol. Under orders from the Biden-Harris Department of Homeland Security, Border Patrol has released millions of illegal entrants into the United States in the last four years.

Yes, Mexico Knows Exactly What It Is Doing

Mexico understands that an open border, the destruction of U.S. immigration law, illegal immigration, and emigration of millions of its own citizens to America are entirely in its own interests.

President-elect Donald Trump recently had a “talk” with newly elected Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum about the millions who have crossed through Mexico to enter the U.S. illegally.

Afterwards, Trump reported that their conversation went well, and supposedly both had agreed to secure the U.S. border.

Terror Suspect Caught at the Northern Border Indicative of a Bigger Problem

We often focus so much on the border between the United States and Mexico that it overshadows the one we share with our Canadian neighbors. The recent arrest of a suspected terrorist is a sobering reminder that it can be just as big of a national security threat. According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), 41-year-old Mohammed Hasan Abdellatif Albana was captured in Lynden, Washington. He was identified as a “known or suspected terrorist,” according to Fox News. While it’s not clear when he was apprehended, ICE deported him back to Jordan on November 15.

What to Expect From Trump Administration’s Mass Deportation Plans

EAGLE PASS, Texas—Incoming border czar Tom Homan has made it clear that states such as Texas are about to have an ally in the White House when it comes to securing the U.S. southern border.

Homan and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott promised a new era of cooperation between the federal government and states eager to secure the border as President-elect Donald Trump’s deportation plan takes shape. The two served early Thanksgiving meals to Texas Department of Public Safety law enforcement and Texas National Guard members last week.

Crime rates in Canada and the U.S. are not what you might think

The numbers often aren’t strictly comparable, given differences in definitions, but rates of growth are, and they aren’t favourable

Here in Canada, with our mantra of “peace, order and good government,” we view our country as a peaceable kingdom marked by less crime than our American cousins, with their “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Much of our self-assurance on this point is because, as noted in a new study of mine published by the Fraser Institute, homicides rates have always been higher in the United States than in Canada.

Mexican Authorities Dissolve Migrant Caravan Headed to U.S.

Mexican immigration authorities dissolved one of the large migrant caravans moving through southern Mexico as they provided the group with bus transportation to other parts of Mexico and promised to help them with their paperwork. The move comes soon after Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum had phone calls with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump over the threats of tariffs if Mexico does not halt the flow of drugs, migrants, and asylum seekers headed north.

Steve Bannon: Maga can rule for 50 years and Farage will be PM

Under a cloudless desert sky on the day before Thanksgiving, one of Donald Trump’s top henchmen is denouncing a range of enemies including, but not limited to: the Department of Justice, federal bureaucrats, the Republican leader of the Senate and liberal former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, who reportedly moved to the UK after the Republican electoral victory.

“They’re all infesting the Cotswolds,” gripes Steve Bannon, stretching out on a sunchair at his holiday home in the shadow of Arizona’s Santa Catalina mountains. “F*** them. They’re not resilient … They had every advantage of state power. They had the high ground. And guess what, we broke them and now they’re whining like little children.”
