“Welcome. The zucchini canning yesterday was almost completely successful. I blew the bottom out of one jar because I should’ve changed the water between the 1st & 2nd batch. The jar was too cool for the temp change. You can see the result in the video.”
Poilievre Calls for Scrapping EV Mandate After Auto CEOs’ Private Letter to Carney Made Public
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is once again calling for Ottawa to overturn its electric vehicle (EV) mandate, echoing a letter five automobile CEOs sent to the prime minister in May that was recently released.
“Automakers have warned Mr. Carney of the job losses and rising costs from his ban on gas-powered vehicles. We must allow people the freedom to choose,” the Tory leader said on Aug. 7.
Britain’s weekend of protest anarchy: Palestine Action supporters will defy threat of mass arrests as more demos are held outside migrant hotels
The UK is bracing for a weekend of protest anarchy with both Palestine Action supporters and anti-migrant demonstrators set to take to the streets.
More than 500 people are expected gather outside Parliament at 1pm tomorrow in support of Palestine Action, defying warnings they will be charged with terror offences.

US pro-Palestinian activist paid $75k to protest, funding traces back to Chinese Communist Party
One of the lead organizers of pro-Palestine rallies in New York – David (Sung Mo) Chung – is paid $75,000 to protest, Nate Friedman first revealed in an investigation that he posted to his social media.
Friedman has been talking to people at protests for over a year, and now works to uncover professional protesters. He first came across Chung at a “Hands Off Iran” protest in NYC, he told The Jerusalem Post in an interview on Thursday. Friedman was trying to speak to a man with a flag that read, “There is no god but Allah,” but just “two sentences into the interview, another man interrupted and pulled the guy aside, and told him they were getting ready to march.” The other man was Chung.
H/T All who sent this in.

Winnipeg Police: "One of our senior officers is a psychopathic serial criminal who—while maybe high on coke and mushrooms—sold drugs, extorted people and took grotesque pictures with dead women in their underwear. But before we get to that, let's do a dozen land acknowledgments." pic.twitter.com/YjvTgXIbAj

HANNAFORD: Ottawa’s eternal quest to shape what Canadians say and think
Is it an exaggeration to say Canada’s Liberal government uses newspaper subsidies and internet regulation to control what Canadians read and say?
Host Nigel Hannaford puts the question to former CRTC commissioner and one-time Calgary Herald publisher Peter Menzies: “I don’t think you’re overstating the situation at all,” says Menzies.

Geoff Russ: Alignment of decolonialists and anti-Israel radicals a dangerous threat to the West
If you thought that the alliance of pro-Gaza activists, radical leftists and proponents of terror would fade away, you were wrong.
Last weekend in Australia, the “March for Humanity” paraded across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. An estimated 100,000 people marched to support the people of Gaza amidst a war between Israel and Hamas that has lasted for almost two years.

LILLEY: Ford’s new harsh tone on Trump a really dumb idea
There’s been a marked change in Doug Ford’s tone when speaking about Donald Trump and it could become a big problem for Canada.
Ford has gone from criticizing Trump’s policies to making things personal with the U.S. President, and that’s something that won’t go over well in Washington.
WTF?

Children of Eurabia are named after Hamas leaders
Perhaps New Statesman was right to headline: “The West is bored to death.”
Every day we invent a controversy over phantom “racism.”
And while the West dies of boredom and drifts into nothingness talking about mansplaining and misgendering, a death cult rises in Eurabia.
Imagine if in 1945, hundreds of Europeans had named newborns “Adolf,” a name that unsurprisingly disappeared after WWII.
Today, 583 baby boys in the UK have been named “Yahya”.
America Must Never Apologize for Dropping the Bombs on Japan
There is no room for presentist moral narcissism.
This week marks the 80th anniversary of President Harry Truman’s fateful decision to drop atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (respectively, Aug. 6 and 9, 1945). To date, those two bombings represent the only instances in which nuclear weapons have been deployed in war. At least 150,000 Japanese perished — a majority of them civilians. But the bombings were successful in achieving their intended effect: Japan announced its formal surrender to the Allies six days after the second bombing, thus finally bringing the bloodiest conflict in human history to an end.
Terry Glavin: Synagogue vandalism shows being ‘progressive’ no shield against antisemitism
They were gathering at the conclusion of last weekend’s Shabbat at the Congregation Emanu-El synagogue in downtown Victoria for an evening reading from the Book of Lamentations and the usual chants and prayers to mark Tisha B’Av, the holiest day of mourning in the Jewish calendar.
It’s a time of fasting and reflection that marks the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem, and the tribulations that followed the Jews down through the ages.
