Fears British woman, 71, who vanished while hiking in South Africa was killed for her body parts to be used in witchcraft

A British woman who vanished while hiking in South Africa may have been killed for her body parts to be used in witchcraft rituals, it is feared.

Lorna McSorley, 71, went missing in September after she and her partner of 30 years, 81-year-old Leon, left their hotel to go for a short walk from the Ghost Mountain Inn in the KwaZulu-Natal province to search for local wildlife.

On the walk, Leon found the heat and distance too difficult and left his partner carry on on her own.

Canada is uniquely unprepared for the dire national-security crisis we are now in

It is doubtful any country has ever been in quite the national security dilemma Canada now finds itself in: with so much land and so few people to defend it; wedged between two expansionist superpowers, one of which was until very recently our best defence against the other, but which has since become more or less aligned with it.

The dilemma is particularly acute in light of our charmed history. A country that had always considered itself invulnerable to attack – because of the oceans that surround us, because of the forbidding climate in our North, because of the Americans – wakes up to discover that it has suddenly become peculiarly vulnerable.

Coyne alert!

Flagship eco-village backed by King Charles’s charity now resembles ‘apocalyptic film’ after being abandoned for more than a decade

A flagship eco-village backed by King Charles’s charity now resembles an ‘apocalyptic film’ after being abandoned for more than a decade.

Almost 300 houses were built on a former oil refinery site in Llandarcy, near Neath, South Wales under plans to turn industrial land into a thriving new village.

The King visited the site in 2013 – when he was the Prince of Wales – after the first phase was completed but construction was abandoned soon after.

Governor General getting $15,800 pay raise this year: ‘Insult to taxpayers’

RCMP code named “Charge It!”

OTTAWA — For the fifth year in a row, Canada’s vice-regal will notice a nice bump on her pay stub.

The Privy Council Office (PCO) confirmed to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) that the Governor General will get a $15,800 pay raise this year — current GG Mary Simon’s fifth automatic pay raise since entering Rideau Hall in 2021.


I still laugh at her attempt to justify the outrageous expenses she ran up on one jaunt – she said they were discussing important matters such as World Peace.

Toronto Renamed a Park to Honor ‘First Peoples,’ and It’s a Disaster

This may be old news to Torontonians, but it’s worth sharing because I’ll bet you’ve never heard this one, and it’s a prime example of so much we see from the left these days.

First off, some of the nice things about the new Woodsy Park in Toronto were its amenities, which included a field, a playground, a firepit, a skate trail, a splash pad, and, with a hat tip to those Canadians, it’s well-maintained and very clean. Another nice thing about it was its name – “Woodsy.” That was easy to remember, and it just sounded nice, you know, woodsy, even though there weren’t a lot of trees.
