Newcomers to Canada Caused 11 to 21 Percent of Housing Price Increases: Department of Immigration

Immigrants arriving in Canada led to a rise in housing prices, accounting for 11 percent of the price increase in smaller towns and 21 percent in cities of more than 100,000 people, according to the Immigration Department.

According to the report “Immigration and Housing Prices Across Municipalities in Canada,” municipal data across Canada from 2006 to 2021 suggest that over the study period, “the rise in the influx of new immigrants, who arrived in Canada within the past five years, on average, accounted for 11 percent of the rise in median house values and in median rents across municipalities with a population of at least 1,000.”

The report, first covered by Blacklock’s Reporter, said this association was “notably more pronounced” in larger municipalities.

Foreign Births Now Majority as German Fertility Hits Record Low

Germany’s native birth rate has fallen to its lowest level in nearly 30 years, while births to foreign mothers now account for over half of all newborns, according to new official data.

The figures, published by Germany’s Federal Statistical Office, confirm a trend that for years was dismissed as a conspiracy theory: the German people are on their way to becoming a minority in their homeland, thanks to the collapse in birth rates among German citizens, coupled with the steady increase in births among foreign women and mass immigration.

The U.K. is lowering its voting age to 16. Should Canada follow suit?

The U.K. government announced Thursday that it will be lowering the voting age from 18 to 16, in time for its next general election. The move is encouraging for advocates who want to see the same change made in Canada.

“It’s a step that should have been done a long time ago,” Jaden Braves, CEO of Young Politicians of Canada, a Toronto-based non-profit, told CBC News.

“I think it’s very unfortunate that Canada could not be a leader within this discussion.”


What kind of rent seeking asshole becomes the CEO of Young Politicians Of Canada?

STIRLING: CBC brings Soviet-style propaganda to Canada

CBC is reporting on a new study by Pruysers et al. (2025) that claims people sceptical of climate change have personality issues associated with the “Dark Triad:” narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. In contrast, they say those who agree with catastrophic human-caused climate change narratives exhibit prosocial traits like agreeableness and honesty-humility.

Deniers versus compliers, eh?

Surrogacy Scandal Puts 21 Children and Infants in Danger

Guojun Xuan and Silvia Zhang evil monsters

Twenty-one children were rescued in Arcadia from a potential foreign trafficking ring.

Over 20 children removed from a home in the Los Angeles suburb of Arcadia were the latest victims of IVF and surrogate reproductive technologies in a case now being investigated by the FBI. The legal guardians of the 21 children, Siliva Zhang and Guojun Xuan, have been arrested on charges of child abuse and neglect, and are allegedly under investigation for a large-scale crime ring. The consequences of their twisted surrogacy practices are still unclear.

What if British culture is part of the problem?

Islamism has thrived thanks to the cowardice and evasiveness of the UK’s liberal elites.

The claim that ‘no culture is better than another’ often tips over into an asymmetrical elevation of ‘the other’ and an abasement of the self. In Britain, advocates of hard multiculturalism tend to celebrate cultures belonging to migrants and their descendants, and to denigrate the culture of the historic, indigenous majority.

Jamie Sarkonak: Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree is unfit for office

One basic prerequisite for becoming public safety minister should be a lack of perceived conflicts of interest with terror organizations. Heck, it should be a requirement for candidacy as an MP, long before cabinet enters the conversation.

But no such requirement formally exists, which is why we have Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree, who remains in his office despite recusing himself from all files involving two Tamil terrorist groups, and who, Canadians learned Tuesday, wrote letters of support to assist a former Tamil Tiger member’s immigration efforts.

‘The Network’ in the Worlds of the Elites

Baffled by President Trump’s response to the Epstein “Client List”? I think I get it.

Is there something about liberal elite networks, you should understand?

Half the country is up in arms about President Donald Trump’s inexplicable decision to mock his base, because many are appalled that Attorney General Pam Bondi seems to be orchestrating a coverup of a serial rapist of children. Bondi’s Justice Department released a memo last week: “The two-page document said the department found no evidence of an Epstein client list and that no additional files from the investigation would be made public.”

Border crossings drop despite fears of post-Trump immigration surge

Fears of a surge in refugee claimants and illegal border crossings following the inauguration of U.S. President Donald Trump have not materialized, according to new federal data showing a sharp decline in attempted entries into Canada.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the Canada Border Services Agency reported 12,185 refugee claimants between January and April, down 50% from 24,445 in the same period last year.

Air India captain’s eerie words to first officer before they squabbled over fuel switches ‘are revealed in black box recording’

The captain of Air India Flight 171, which crashed in Ahmedabad killing 241 people on board last month, entrusted his first officer with the plane before takeoff, sources have claimed, citing the black boxes recovered from the crash.

‘The plane is in your hands,’ Captain Sumeet Sabharwal told First Officer Clive Kunder, two Western sources familiar with the contents of the recordings told Corriere della Sera.

The sources told the outlet it was not unusual for the first officer to manage takeoff. But it would have given the captain an opportunity to operate ‘undisturbed’, three consulted pilots said.

“It will not be easy to drive out the tens of thousands of radical Islamists who have settled in Europe, but it can be done if you lose your fear.”

Canadian companies gear up for a big boost in defence spending

A sight not seen since the Oklahoma Land Rush

On a Tuesday morning in late June, a crowd of investors, government officials, entrepreneurs and bankers huddle in a small conference room on the 53rd floor of the TD Bank Tower in downtown Toronto to mull over the possibility of imminent conflict.

Kevin Reed, president of the European Defence, Security, and Resilience Bank, asks the attentive crowd before him how many of them think Canada will be at war in five years. Nearly half of them raise their hands. Next, he asks how many think Canada will be at war in two years. A few put down their hands, but many remain. Then, he asks, “How many think we’re at war now?” Some hands are still raised.

‘Canada is the most infiltrated country’: Iranian Canadians fear the regime’s borderless terror

Toronto resident Daniel was not in Iran’s good books even before Israel and the United States showered the country with missiles and bombs last month.

While working as a telecommunications supplier in Iran, he says he deliberately sabotaged schemes to evade sanctions and import equipment for military use, earning the regime’s ire. A member of Iran’s tiny Jewish community, he eventually fled the Islamic Republic and ended up in Canada a decade ago.

Why Don’t Americans Care More About Rising Disorder?

 

A growing culture of Third Worldism—the belief that you’re entitled to use public spaces without any responsibility to care for them—is corroding civic life in cities.

Immigrants from poor countries like my own, Venezuela, often joke that Americans complain too much about “First World problems.” Back home, we don’t worry about microaggressions; we’re too busy figuring out how to put food on the table or stay safe from crime and government censorship.

But here’s the irony: increasingly, Americans aren’t complaining enough about Third World problems. Trash-strewn streets, loud music in public, brazen shoplifting, rising disorder, and a general decline in civility are becoming common in major U.S. cities. In New York, the problem is hard to miss.
