An Italian school’s decision to exempt Muslim children from studying Dante because the mediaeval poet placed Mohammed in hell in The Divine Comedy has sparked a backlash and a debate over cancel culture.
Politicians from both the Left and Right said that Dante was a pillar of Italian literature and that it was unacceptable for children to be exempted from studying his writing because of their faith.
The row broke out after a secondary school in Treviso in the north of the country reportedly allowed two Muslim children, aged around 14, to not attend classes in which The Divine Comedy was being studied.

Plan to let undocumented migrants stay in Canada to be examined by PM, ministers
The federal cabinet could discuss plans as early as next week to provide a path to citizenship for thousands of migrants living in Canada without valid documents, including rejected asylum seekers, so they can remain here legally.
Immigration Minister Marc Miller is preparing a plan for discussion by cabinet before Parliament breaks for its summer recess within weeks.
It would propose that people living in Canada without legal status – including former international students whose study permits have expired – have a chance to apply to regularize their position and gain permanent residence.

When Canada announced $3 billion in aid to Ukraine on the anniversary of its invasion by Russia in February, one item that drew some attention was a $4 million allocation for “gender-inclusive demining” in Ukraine.
“What’s woke and what’s a joke: Canada implements gender-inclusive Ukraine support,” headlined Sky News Australia following the announcement. Fox News matched with: “We now need diversity guidelines for clearing landmines.”
A U.S. congressional committee has summoned the country’s Director of National Intelligence for a briefing on the firing of two Canadian scientists from Ottawa’s high-security infectious-disease laboratory in Winnipeg.

There were just too many people. At 8,700 metres, above the point where a human can live but below the summit those humans hoped to reach, Everest was jammed.
Climbers queued to go up, climbers queued to go down. With each breath, their oxygen tanks lightened. With each step, the snow creaked. And then, without warning, that snow gave way.

Gillian Mears, 70, said she “just saw red” before chasing the teenagers away after they damaged the back gate of her house in Kessingland, Suffolk.
However, when police visited her home after she made a complaint about the damage she was warned about making threats.
A restaurant in Burnaby is being grilled after an image surfaced online, showing it has covered up the “no tip” option on its point-of-sale terminal and the move has people fuming.
