No Country for Barbie? Muslims Shutting Down Screening Divides French Politics

The latest political scandal in France is just as absurd as it seems: residents of Muslim background had a free public screening of ‘Barbie’ shut down for being offensive to their cultural sensibilities, and anyone who thinks this is problematic is labeled an Islamophobic far-right extremist.

The incident happened in the ‘ethnically-diverse’ Paris suburb of Noisy-le-Sec, where the local council had the idea of providing free film screenings to poorer neighborhoods during the summer. The program would have been successful were it not for the apparently ‘poor’ movie choice for last weekend, featuring Greta Gerwig’s 2023 Oscar-winning feminist comedy Barbie.

Patrice Dutil: What Toronto loses with the naming of Sankofa Square

As municipal officials in Toronto get set to host an event inaugurating the newly renamed Sankofa Square (formerly Younge-Dundas Square), it’s worth pondering what could have been.

The word “Sankofa” is not organic, it does not grow out of the Torontonian experience and it is not authentic. Nor it is even original: in the United States, there are endless shops, schools, arts centres and community organizations named after the concept.

Racists renamed Dundas Square after African Slavers to insult White Canadians and Canada’s heritage.

The Smithsonian should teach children the REAL history of Slavery:

– Slavery originated in Africa over 4,700 years ago
– Slavery was exported from Africa to the West
– The U.S. and England were the first to abolish it
– 7 million people remain enslaved in Africa in 2025… pic.twitter.com/bjbvWl7Yvc

Conservatives Urge Parliamentary Probe Into Government Spending on Repatriating Canadian ISIS Women

The Conservative Party is calling for the parliamentary public safety committee to investigate the federal government’s expenditure of at least $170,000 on repatriating from Syria Canadian women who had joined the ISIS terrorist group.

The letter signed by Conservative MPs asks the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security to convene immediately and investigate Global News’ reporting showing that Ottawa spent more than $170,000 for returning the eight women who had previously travelled to Syria to join ISIS.

Americans Who ‘Learned To Code’ At Obama’s Behest Can’t Find Jobs Now

Manasi Mishra, a 21-year-old with a degree in computer science (CS) from Purdue University, shared in a TikTok video that despite her intelligence and hard work, she struggled to find a job for nearly a year. The only company that called her back for an interview during this time was Chipotle, and she did not get the job. It was only after her video went viral that Mishra finally secured a job offer last month.

Is a Christian King Prepared To Rule a Post-Christian Britain?

Britain’s King Charles III is receiving praise for his “momentous” commitment to diversity after both a Ramadan meal and an “LGBT+ History Month” lecture were held at Windsor Castle this year—although not, of course, at the same time. The House of Windsor has become a microcosm of the United Kingdom, slowly being squeezed between the pincers of LGBT sexual revolutionaries and an exploding Muslim population (Muhammad recently became the most popular name in England for the first time).

Conrad Black: The end of Ukraine war is coming

Whatever happened in the Trump-Putin meeting, just after this column was written, we are finally getting close to the only satisfactory end to the awful Ukraine war. President Donald Trump deserves credit for being the only western statesman who audibly made the point that the West had two objectives in this war. Of course, Russia could not be permitted to occupy and reabsorb Ukraine. If it had done so, it would in one stroke have regained the largest single piece of what it had lost in its total defeat in the Cold War, which caused the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the collapse of international communism, (and the realignment of the left of the world as spontaneous environmental militants attacking capitalism from a new angle in the name of saving the planet). Ukraine is next to Russia itself the largest and most strategically important component of the former USSR. Apart from being a strategic disaster and a terrible injustice to Ukraine, the Russian conquest of Ukraine would have exposed the Western Alliance as a paper tiger that no aggressive state need take seriously.

A Fringe to make you cringe

MUCH consternation has been displayed by the panjandrums who are responsible for organising the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Their annual gathering for aspiring artists has been disrupted by performances by the popular music combo, Oasis. The council organisers have complained that the Oasis fans were undesirable loutish types who would desecrate their sacred festival. A self-professed comedienne called Kate Smurthwaite, apparently a BBC regular, went on to Instagram to moan that no one wanted to watch her show because of the disruption caused by the Gallagher brothers.

London is in trouble and there’s no point denying it

The media elites’ classist indifference to the fraying of social bonds is gross.

A new high-status opinion just dropped: London is fine. From their converted Edwardian houses in the leafy suburbs where you won’t get a burger for less than 15 quid, London’s preening opinion-shapers have taken to X to say all is well in the capital. Ignore the ‘Trumpist’ talking points about London going down the swanny, they cry between glugs of pinot noir – life’s never been better! One envisions the grimaces of people on the other side of town when they see such hot takes pop up on their mobile phones that they cling to for dear life lest some wanker on a stolen Lime bike should snatch them.

Canadians’ view of leadership in Washington plunges: Gallup poll

In the wake of a stormy stretch in Canada-U.S. relations, the Canadian view of American leadership has plummeted.

Gallup’s latest survey of Canadian opinion, conducted in May and June, found approval of Washington slipping to 15 per cent, statistically in line with sentiment when Donald Trump was president the first time.

But they love Obama!

Labour-run council ordering removal of St George’s and Union Jack flags is too scared to take down Palestine flags without police protection, leaked email reveals

A Labour-run council has sparked outrage by ordering the removal of British flags from lampposts – while being ‘too scared’ to take down Palestine flags without police protection.

Bankrupt Birmingham City Council said hundreds of Union and St George’s flags recently hung around the city ‘could put lives at risk’ by endangering motorists and pedestrians.

The flags had been strung up by a small, organised group of residents to ‘show Birmingham and the rest of the country how proud we are of our history, freedoms and achievements’.

A First-Of-Its-Kind Lawsuit Seeks Wrongful Death Climate Damages From Oil Companies. Sealed Court Docs Show a Rockefeller-Funded Green Group Is Steering It.

A first-of-its-kind lawsuit seeks to compel oil companies to pay wrongful death damages by holding them responsible for climate change. Sealed court filings obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show a Rockefeller-funded green group is working on that suit behind the scenes.

Misti Leon filed the pioneering complaint in Washington state court on May 29, accusing seven oil companies of being responsible for the 2021 heat-wave death of her mother. Two days earlier, Leon quietly appointed climate activist and nonprofit leader Sarah Myhre to serve as the agent for her deceased mother’s estate, according to sealed court filings obtained by the Free Beacon. Myhre, who isn’t a lawyer, will be responsible for handling the estate’s papers as the case proceeds.

‘I thought it was a joke’: Canadian politicians reject state senator’s invitation to be ‘adopted’ by US

Politicians past and present from across Canada have responded to an invitation to be “adopted” by the United States with a resounding “no.”

Maine State Senator Joseph Martin suggested that British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba should become “full American states,” arguing that those who truly want “freedom” must look south of the 49th.

Michael A. Sachs: Some Jewish Canadians planning exit strategies to more welcoming U.S.

TULSA, OKLAHOMA — Over the past few weeks, my inbox has been flooded with frightened and heartbreaking messages from Canadian Jews. Many are scared and looking for ways out of Canada, telling deeply personal stories of fear, marginalization, and hopelessness.

I had shared in these pages my family’s reasons for choosing to leave Canada — Vancouver, specifically — to pursue opportunities in the U.S., and obviously hit a nerve with National Post readers

The Alaska summit doesn’t look good for Ukraine

And just like that, the highly-anticipated summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska has been and gone, seemingly without very much at all to show for it. The two presidents met in Anchorage yesterday for what Trump had touted as a ‘feel-out’ meeting to lay the groundwork for negotiations to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine. But despite Trump rating the tête-à-tête a ten out of ten – ‘in the sense that we got along great’ – on substance, the American president has come away with little to prove that Putin is any closer to stopping his invasion.

Can Trump dictate a “peace”?
