Keep the Dog …

Asylum seeker brings dog to Britain by small boat

A German shepherd has become the first dog to make the perilous journey across the Channel in a dinghy after landing with its owner on the south coast.

The animal’s owner is believed to have been housed in a hotel for asylum seekers for the past four months since arriving from France, while the dog has been held in quarantine.

Discussions are believed to be under way about officers adopting the dog, whose breed can be easily trained, as an official Border Force dog, according to The Sun.


They should have tossed the illegal alien back into the channel.

Is AOC’s Engagement Off?

Is she or isn’t she?

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Workers’ Paradise) announced her engagement way back in 2022, but it’s three years later now, and questions have begun to swirl around her marital plans. This is not just a matter of leftist schoolgirls dreaming of emulating Comrade Heroine, or even of disappointed young blokes who yearn to take the place of the beta schlub AOC apparently plans to marry. It actually involves serious ethics violations, which just a scant few months ago Democrats could commit by the bucketload without fear of the slightest consequences beyond a few curmudgeons grumbling at Frontpage Magazine. Now, however, it’s a different story.

OTTAWA — Canadians have more trust in Prime Minister Mark Carney now than they did in former prime minister Justin Trudeau after he was first elected and during his last days in office, a new poll suggests.

That’s like asking who’s your favourite crook.

Canada Had Largest Debt Increase Among G7 Countries Over Last Decade: Fraser Institute

Canada’s total government debt has grown substantially since 2014 and has outpaced nearly every other advanced country’s around the world, according to a new study from the Fraser Institute.

The study, “The Deterioration of Canada’s Finances Internationally” released May 15, compared Canada’s finances during the last 10 years to that of 40 other advanced countries internationally, including G7 countries. The authors found that Canada experienced one of the largest increases in government size over the last decade and now has one of the highest debt burdens of any advanced economy country.

Sighing at a colleague? That could count as workplace harassment

Many a sigh has been heaved by bosses at an underling who has caused irritation. Well, now a judge has warned that expressing that frustration can legally be considered harassment.

Using “non-verbal” expressions of disappointment or irritation can breach equality laws, an employment tribunal judge has ruled in a case involving a software engineer who has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

BRADLEY: The ostriches in the coal mine

If you want a litmus test for how broken Canada’s institutions are, look no further than British Columbia’s latest disgrace: the impending state-sanctioned slaughter of hundreds of ostriches.

In a stunning act of bureaucratic brutality, the B.C. government — with the blessing of the courts — has decided that mass extermination is preferable to negotiation, relocation, or even basic common sense. Their justification? A single bird tested positive for avian flu. Their method? Shotguns. Their message? Obey, or be erased.

Adam Zivo: Housing minister says unaffordable homes are the answer

Canada’s new housing minister Gregor Robertson says that the prices of existing homes shouldn’t go down, lest this negatively impact current homeowners, and that affordable housing should be provided through massive government subsidies instead. His position is economically illiterate and raises concerns about his fitness to lead this portfolio.

Anyone with a cursory understanding of economics knows that, in a regular market, the price of any given commodity will be roughly the same for both the buyer and seller. If you want people to have the option of purchasing $3 coffee, for example, you need cafes that are willing to sell coffee for $3 as well. While these dynamics are sometimes distorted — i.e. through taxes and subsidies — this is, for the most part, how transactions work.

Working Out Is Right Wing, and That’s a Good Thing

The media has a new villain: fitness

According to recent articles, engaging in physical exercise is now linked to right-wing extremism. The narrative suggests that lifting weights, building discipline, and taking responsibility for your body are somehow dangerous acts. The Guardian claims that getting in shape could turn you into a “right-wing jerk,” while TIME runs pieces on “the white supremacist origins of exercise.” MSNBC warns that during the pandemic, workout trends ended up leading to “extreme” ideologies.
