Royal Bank of Canada shuts down Freedom Convoy lawyer’s accounts over ‘risk concerns’

Eva Chipiuk, a lawyer known for her involvement in the Freedom Convoy and vocal criticism of Canadian institutions, has been blindsided after the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) terminated its banking relationship with her, citing risk-related concerns.

According to an official letter the banking institution sent to Chipiuk, her “recent activity was outside of RBC’s client risk appetite,” and it would “no longer be in a position to continue serving her.”

Poll: 62% of Gen Z kids like socialism, 34% like communism

Rikki Schlott at the New York Post reported yesterday on the results of a new poll from the Cato Institute and YouGov which revealed that 62% of Gen Z kids (ages 18–29) held a “favorable view” of socialism” while 34% held a “favorable view” of communism.

Can these young Americans define or recognize either of these systems by the actual (rotten) fruits of their harvests? I guarantee that’s a big fat no, but it doesn’t matter, because they’re voting for it anyway.

The Horror Of MAGA Musician!! He Spoke Out Against Critical Race Theory Says Far Left Extremist National Broadcaster!

Permit revoked for MAGA musician’s concert at Parks Canada site, but show will go on

Parks Canada says a U.S. singer and rising star in the MAGA movement will not perform at a national historic site near Halifax after the federal agency revoked the organizer’s permit, but the show is slated to go on at a new venue.

Christian rocker Sean Feucht was scheduled to play a concert on Wednesday night at the York Redoubt National Historic Site, a fortification constructed in 1793 to help protect the port city.

Feucht, who unsuccessfully ran for U.S. Congress as a Republican in 2020, is also a missionary and an author who has spoken out against the 2SLGBTQ+ community, abortion rights and critical race theory on his website.


Only the far left extremists of the CBC could write this with a straight face.

Today In Bad Ideas: Canadian government considers criminalizing hate and terror symbols

OTTAWA—The Liberal government is weighing the criminalization of displaying terror and hate symbols, a potentially precedent-setting move in Canada that has prompted concerns about civil liberties.

It’s not yet clear if a possible ban would focus on specific symbols, like the swastika, or if it would broadly cover any symbols related to designated terror groups. And no final decision has yet been made on whether to go through with the Criminal Code reforms, which were being mulled by the Trudeau government prior to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s ascent to the Liberal leadership and his victory in the spring election, according to a transition briefing to the minister of justice from March 2025 that was made public last week.


We have experience of laws ostensibly designed to safeguard the public good being weaponized by the Liberal-Left to criminalize dissent.

That assault on liberty is on-going and we should not repeat errors of the past.

Most US Abrams Tanks in Ukraine Now Lost, Captured, or Abandoned

When the United States delivered 31 M1A1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine in September 2023, the move was heralded as a potential turning point in Kyiv’s fight against Russia, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy calling them a “game changer.”

The Abrams, a symbol of American armored dominance, have dominated second- and third-tier militaries like Iraq’s in the 1991 Gulf War, where superior tactics and training, combined with the Abram’s advanced armor and fire control systems, allowed U.S forces to utterly dominate Iraqi armored forces. Yet, since their arrival in Ukraine, these “wonder weapons” have faltered badly. By July 2025, at least 22 of the tanks were destroyed, damaged, abandoned, or captured. Some estimates place this number as high as 27. This outcome, far from shocking, was predictable, as expectations based on triumphs over weaker foes like Iraq were wildly unrealistic.
