Almost 600 foreign nationals with criminal records due to be deported are missing, CBSA says

Canadian border agents are trying to track down almost 600 foreigners with criminal records who are due to be deported but have gone missing – 431 of whom have been found guilty of serious crimes such as sexual assault.

Figures from the Canada Border Services Agency show that 1,635 foreign nationals guilty of committing crimes in Canada are currently facing deportation, but 599 of them have failed to attend deportation proceedings and have been placed on the agency’s “wanted” list.

Of those 599, 315 have been evading deportation for more than three years. Another 46, according to CBSA figures obtained by The Globe and Mail, have been evading the authorities for more than two years.

Why weren’t they in Jail until deported? Polar Bear Alcatraz anyone?

Did we really have to make this D-list MAGA singer famous in Canada?

The continuing controversy involving Sean Feucht, the American Christian rocker and MAGA darling who has been denied permits for his concerts all across Eastern Canada, has become just dreadfully irritating.

It is irritating to watch Mr. Feucht’s critics conflate his opinions – on abortion (he’s against it), on homosexuality (he believes it is a perversion of God’s will), on the “trans agenda” (“demonic,” according to Mr. Feucht) – with the promotion of hatred, as defined by the Criminal Code. Hate speech is not protected speech, but not all offensive speech is hate speech. We as a society went over this, ad nauseum, during the peak of the cancel-culture furor around 2017 or so. Apparently we’ve forgotten what we learned during that time.

WARMINGTON: Driver allegedly almost runs over cops and public but released without bail hearing

It’s not everyday that an accused who was arrested by five Toronto Police officers with their guns drawn gets to walk away from custody as long as he shows up for court in late September.

… Yet, the guy charged after this wild mayhem didn’t even have to spend a night in jail. Or even go to a police station to be booked. It was treated as if he was getting a speeding ticket.

…That person was Mrunmay Ukey, 27, of Toronto, who “was arrested and charged with fail to stop for police” and “dangerous operation” of a motor vehicle and is “scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of justice, 10 Armoury St., on Friday, September 19, 2025, at 11 a.m., in room 203.” None of the allegations against him have been tested in court.

For Pierre Poilievre, defending Freedom Convoy convicts is a political survival strategy

Anyone expecting a gentler, more moderate Pierre Poilievre to emerge following his electoral defeat can put to rest any speculation that the Conservative leader is planning a great reset.

Despite internal grumblings that Poilievre’s combative tone and coziness with far-right types has been bringing their party down, his Conservatives are back and picking fights with Crown prosecutors trying “Freedom Convoy” leaders Tamara Lich and Chris Barber.

Barry Appleton: Canada submits to China’s algorithmic colonialism

On Nov. 6, 2024, Canada ordered TikTok’s local offices expelled but left its influence engine untouched. The result? Fewer Canadian jobs, no new oversight, and continued foreign control over our digital public square. It makes about as much sense as banning foreign diplomats while allowing their propaganda broadcasts to continue uninterrupted.

Canada’s shutdown order, issued after a national security review, eliminates TikTok’s 350 Canadian employees and halts cultural sponsorships worth millions. Yet the algorithm that shapes what Canadians see, share, and believe remains entirely in Chinese hands. We have managed to achieve the worst of both worlds: less accountability with zero additional protection.

Fans of heavy metal could face jail in Russia as Putin bans ‘satanists’

Russian fans of heavy metal and goth music could face prison after the Kremlin’s top court outlawed the “international satanism movement” as an extremist and terrorist group — even though no such organisation exists.

The Russian Supreme Court’s ruling came after appeals from the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church, MPs and other officials. It means that anyone who is alleged to be a member of the non-existent movement could face up to eight years in prison. Critics said the ruling would increase the climate of fear that has gripped Russia since President Putin ordered tanks into Ukraine in 2022.

This woman claims Air Canada discriminated against her in a case of ‘flying while Black.’ Now her human rights complaint could set a precedent

Months after a knee surgery, June Francis booked a business-class flight from Vancouver for a conference in Toronto, the first leg of a work trip that would also include the U.S. and Peru.

Having waited in the “exceptionally long line” at check-in for business passengers, the 62-year-old Jamaican Canadian said she approached the economy area and attempted to ask an Air Canada staffer for help, out of concern about standing too long on her replaced knees.

But what happened next would lead to a complaint that is believed to be the first case of “flying while Black” that reaches a full hearing before the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal.
