Nearly half of new Canadian citizenship certificates are being issued to Americans

The number of Americans seeking Canadian citizenship certificates continues to surge, with new data suggesting almost half of people approved for proof of citizenship since December were born in the U.S.

A recent update on the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website reads: “Applications for Canadian citizenship certificates are rising rapidly across the globe, driven in large part by thousands of requests submitted from the United States. Following a change in the law, the volume of submissions has grown substantially, putting pressure on federal processing streams.”

What it’s like to be on a warship like the USS Abraham Lincoln

What it’s like to be on a warship like the USS Abraham Lincoln

US Navy veteran Jonny Burnell spent 111 days aboard the battleship USS Vinson during the US war with Afghanistan in 2001.

His role as a Navy photographer allowed him to visit crew throughout the ship, unlike most sailors who are confined to parts of the vessel where they work. In an age before digital photography, troops were often eager to get their picture snapped whenever they saw him.

Over more than three months aboard the USS Carl Vinson, he witnessed a change among the crew as their excitement and energy faded to what he called a “sadness”.


Sad? Sad is the Brits who can’t make a seaworthy aircraft carrier. Contrast the article with “The Fighting Lady” a WWII era “Newsdrama” documentary.

In that capacity, he was in charge of Detroit’s Animal Control operation at a time when that department was engaged in some highly questionable activities. El-Sayed has boasted about how he “rebuilt the animal control system,” but he actually seems to have left a wide swath of destruction in his wake. And this is not just a story about the ethical treatment of animals.

Russian, U.S. interests are targeting Alberta’s separatist debate, Canadian research shows

Canadian researchers using artificial intelligence to track foreign interest in the Alberta separatism debate have found the province’s political discourse is being targeted online by Russian and American interests in both overt and covert ways.

The first data from a study that began last month indicate Russian content farms have been pushing pro-separatist content into online communities and using Canadians to “launder” those messages by sharing such material on their social media feeds, the researchers said.

America’s Stranger Problem

America’s Stranger Problem

et’s begin with something most can agree on: high emotion, even rage, and viral imagery increasingly overwhelm logic and reason. Combined with a growing disagreement over what it means to be an American, the result is today’s toxic politics, where fellow citizens increasingly see one another not merely as opponents, but as strangers with fundamentally incompatible values attempting to share a common country. That doesn’t work!
