Muhammad leapfrogged to the top of baby names for boys born in Toronto in 2024 while Emma edged out Olivia as the most popular among girls.
According to a list of names provided Tuesday by the Ontario government, Muhammad moved up from fourth spot in 2023 and ahead of Noah as the most popular baby boy name in the city.

There is no joy in Hogtown. Public transit has struck out. Again. After many years of construction and $3.7 billion spent, there is a new light-rail line on Finch Avenue West, in the city’s north end. It is 10.3 kilometres long, and almost entirely at grade. (For $360 million per kilometre, many places in the world can build fully underground heavy-rail subways. But the mystery of the North American infrastructure surcharge is a subject for another day.)

Four far-left extremists face a myriad of conspiracy and other felony charges for allegedly plotting a series of New Year’s Eve bombings followed by a similar ambush on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Los Angeles.
The alleged attacks, hatched by the so-called pro-Palestine Turtle Island Liberation Front, were discovered by law enforcement after four of its members were allegedly caught testing out the pipe bombs they planned to plant at five LA businesses.
The Turtle Island Liberation Front – the group the FBI found plotting to bomb major cities – is NOT a “pro-Palestine” group.
They are an Antifa group.
Turtle Island refers to North America, the name the land had before it was colonized.

TORONTO — Michael Ma, the Conservative MP who crossed the floor last week to bring Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberals one seat short of a majority, was part of a controversial diaspora organization that urged former Conservative leader Erin O’Toole to resign after the 2021 election over what it described as his “anti-China” stance, told Chinese Canadians to “vote carefully” ahead of the 2025 election, and later called for Pierre Poilievre to step down, according to Chinese-language records reviewed by The Bureau.
Authorities are under mounting pressure to track down the ‘organized’ tubby at-large suspect who killed two people and injured nine more in a horror shooting at Brown University.
The bungled response from law enforcement has been widely criticized in the days following the incident on Saturday, including the release of a ‘person of interest’ who was found not to be the killer.
Cops had also previously announced that they had a suspect ‘in custody’ in the aftermath of the killings before walking back the news, and shared conflicting reports of a secondary shooting that were ‘unfounded.’
Now this is a sh*tshow

I get it. Some days I feel masculine and I will ask that you refer to me as “he” but on the days I feel girly, please use “she.”

Federal law enforcement quickly and expeditiously dismantled an ongoing terror plot that would have wreaked chaos and destruction across Southern California, had it been allowed to go undetected. Viewers of ABC’s World News Tonight might have been left wondering whether there was even a plot to begin with, based on a complete lack of reporting as to motive.

Atrocities in Sudan, Gaza and Ukraine raise a question: do Canadians have a role in addressing the suffering of others?
While these wars can appear to affect only distant strangers, their horrors increase the chances that victims – and perpetrators – will seek to enter Canada. It’s unsurprising, then, that Canadian authorities are busier than ever in identifying suspected perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. Yet Canada continues to deport perpetrators without any guarantee they’ll be subsequently held accountable.
Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky revealed alleged details about the suspect arrested for the Jan. 6 pipe bomb plantings in Washington, D.C., that might undermine the official narrative of the incident.
The mystery of the pipe bombs seemed to be solved on Dec. 4, nearly five years after they were found, when Justice Department officials announced that they had arrested 30-year-old Brian Cole Jr. of Woodbridge, Virginia.
