For years, Dr. Anthony Fauci assured Americans that the COVID-19 vaccines were safe and effective. What he never mentioned, according to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is that he may have suffered one of those “rare” adverse events himself, and he hid it from the country while publicly insisting such injuries weren’t happening.
VDH on Fauci – very good listen.
Donald Trump hosted back-to-back White House meetings with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, as Ukraine seeks more firepower for its air defenses and the Israeli prime minister tries to repair his strained relationship with the US president.
It was Netanyahu’s first visit to the Oval Office since he and Trump launched their joint military campaign against Iran on 28 February.
Netanyahu’s relationship with Trump has been complicated in recent weeks by his push to keep fighting Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon, even as Trump pursued a diplomatic opening with Tehran.
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.
Who will be the 1st illegal driver to crash or be caught smuggling drugs?
When US President Donald Trump took the stage earlier this month at the Pennsylvania Defense and Innovation Summit, flanked by the CEOs of some of America’s largest defence firms, he had one message in mind: build more weapons, and build them faster.
“We have the best quality in the world,” Trump told the armsmakers gathered at the US Army War College, with ‘Secretary of War’ Pete Hegseth at his side. “But we need a little more speed.”
The Trump administration framed the summit as part of a two-pronged approach to revitalise American industry and bolster US warfighting capabilities and, in Hegseth’s words, its “arsenal of freedom”.
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.
Infrastructure Minister Gregor Robertson is refusing to disclose how much Canadian taxpayers could lose under a new toll-sharing arrangement for the Gordie Howe International Bridge, as U.S. President Donald Trump pushes for an even larger share of the bridge’s future revenues.
The issue overshadowed Friday’s ceremonial opening of the Windsor-Detroit crossing after Trump publicly declared that the original bridge agreement “no longer stands” and suggested the United States deserves more than the recently negotiated revenue-sharing deal.
WASHINGTON — More than a year before the pandemic, in the autumn of 2018, coronavirus material was carried covertly out of a People’s Liberation Army medical academy toward the Minnesota laboratory of a federally funded virologist, a man named Fang Li, who was permitted to work on “bat coronavirus DNA.”
In late 2025, Harvard Kennedy School professor Sandra Susan Smith expressed skepticism about the Trump administration’s decision to target a dozen American cities—including Oakland, Chicago, New Orleans, Los Angeles, New York, Portland, and Washington, D.C.—for temporary federal law-enforcement and National Guard deployments aimed at reducing crime and restoring order. Smith wondered “about what the consequences for deploying federalized forces are, especially for black and brown people in the cities that have been targeted for intervention.” She continued: “What seems clear to me is that the costs that are associated with this federal intervention will far outweigh the meager and very short-term benefits.”
One of the targeted cities was Memphis.
US President Donald J. Trump’s proposed civilian nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia risks becoming one of the most dangerous strategic mistakes in recent American Middle East policy. Although supporters portray the agreement as a peaceful energy partnership designed to strengthen relations with a key Arab ally, the long-term consequences could be devastating. The agreement threatens to weaken decades of US non-proliferation policy, ignite a regional arms race, embolden America’s adversaries, and create security risks that future generations may be powerless to reverse.
Renting a glitzy Manhattan apartment for half the market rate while raking in a six-figure salary is urban legend for most New Yorkers. But it is reality for a small class of renters, thanks to the city’s rent-stabilization law.
The best housing deals in New York City happen to go to some of the wealthiest renters in the area, according to The Wall Street Journal’s analysis of New York City’s 2023 Housing and Vacancy Survey, the most recent figures.
The Gordie Howe International Bridge risks becoming a financial sinkhole for Canadian taxpayers.
Although the current uproar over Canada’s side deal with the United States is renewing public focus on the bridge’s finances, the fiscal hazards of the 2.5-kilometre span connecting Windsor and Detroit involve more than just that pact.
The Communist leaders of China took a side in the elections of 2018 and 2020: They wanted Democrats to win.
A recently published intelligence assessment reported that during President Donald Trump’s first term, “The Chinese Communist Party’s policy was to leverage all domestic and foreign elements that were opposed to the U.S. President [Trump] in an effort to reduce the U.S. President’s votes and make him resign or prevent his re-election.”
Dozens of Acadians living in the United States are among those hoping to become Canadian citizens under the country’s new citizenship by descent law — but one expert says the Immigration Department’s narrow interpretation of the rules appears to disregard the history of this particular group.
Nadine Morin, a documentation specialist at the Anselme-Chiasson Centre for Acadian Studies at the Université de Moncton, said she’s received genealogy requests from at least 30 people since January.
At first, she said, she thought it might be a stretch to trace the Canadian connection back to the 1700s. “It wasn’t even Canada yet,” she said in an interview.
How come you never hear a hue and cry from our leftists about the historic maltreatment of the Acadians?
We hear what awful slavers we were even though slavery was abolished before Canada existed, just as the expulsion took place long before 1867.
It sure looks like Mark Carney is auditioning to be the next leader of the U.S. Democratic Party.
As a Canadian Member of Parliament who represents working families impacted by U.S. tariffs, I want to know why Carney is more interested in playing American politics than being the prime minister of Canada.
