Canada won’t become the 51st US state – but could it join the EU?

Carney, Macron – Neither has an ideal domestic life from the look of it

Joachim Streit has never stepped foot in Canada. But that hasn’t stopped the German politician from launching a tenacious, one-man campaign that he readily describes as “aspirational”: to have the North American country join the EU.

“We have to strengthen the European Union,” said Streit, who last year was elected as a member of the European parliament. “And I think Canada – as its prime minister says – is the most European country outside of Europe.”

Streit had long imagined Canada as a sort of paradise, home to dense forests that course with wide, rushing rivers. But after Donald Trump returned to power, launching much of the world into a trade war and turning his back on America’s traditional allies, Streit began to cast the northern country in a new light.

Oh yea, let’s hitch our wagon to Communism’s zombie offspring.

Iran expands dog-walking ban

Iranian officials have expanded a ban on dog walking to a swathe of cities across the country, citing public order and health and safety concerns.

The ban – which mirrors a 2019 police order that barred dog walking in the capital, Tehran – has been extended to at least 18 other cities in the past week. Transporting dogs in vehicles has also been outlawed.

Dog ownership has been frowned upon in Iran since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, with dogs viewed as “unclean” by authorities and a legacy of Western cultural influence.

While the West Cries Islamophobia, Sexual Slavery Continues Unchecked

The uncomfortable truth is that the practice of sexual abuse and enslavement is condoned by Islamic scriptures.

On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists invaded Israel. They murdered 1,200 people, burned families alive, and wounded over 5,000. They tortured and raped women, and abducted roughly 250 hostages, including babies, children and women, many of whom were later killed.

The world watched in horror, shocked by the astonishing brutality. But this was not the first instance of jihadists kidnapping and enslaving Jewish women and families. In fact, the first victims of Islamic sexual slavery were Jewish women and girls in Arabia during the seventh century.

Ben Woodfinden: Canada needs a change agent in charge. The same Liberal playbook won’t fix anything

While it is only a few weeks into the Carney era, it’s clear that the new prime minister sees himself as a transformative leader. He came in during a “moment of crisis” and has signalled he wants to move boldly and aggressively to fix many of the problems facing the country. But there are plenty of reasons to think that Carney is going to be unable to deliver this change.

It’s the same Trudeau crew.

Keir Starmer to visit Canada for security talks after Trump threats

Sir Keir Starmer will travel to Canada next week to discuss security and economic co-operation after President Trump’s threats to its independence, The Times has learned.

He will meet Mark Carney, the prime minister, on June 14, against a backdrop of growing tensions between Ottawa and Washington.

Carney attempted to repair relations on a visit to the White House last month, but was rebuffed last week when Trump doubled tariffs on steel imports to 50 per cent, sparking Canadian warnings of “catastrophic” job losses, factory closures and disruption to supply chains. The UK is the only country that has avoided the 50 per cent tariff after Trump and Starmer struck a deal.

I bet this strikes fear into Washington.

Latest government scandal reveals Quebec’s recurring “kinship” problem

Fifteen years ago, Maclean’s magazine ignited a firestorm with a cover story that branded Quebec as “the most corrupt province in Canada.” The cover featured Bonhomme Carnaval clutching a briefcase overflowing with cash.

Many Quebecers and politicians dismissed the article as an unfair attack on the province’s reputation. Yet we now have fresh evidence suggesting that Maclean’s might have been onto something all along.

Uri Geller to ‘Post’: Greta Thunberg, if you come to harm Israel, I will stop you

This X account seems pretty plugged in to Greta’s soon to be sunk ship. I suspect that was flea powder they dropped.

Conrad Black: A repulsive antisemitism plagues U of T profs

It is not conceivable that Canadians are happy with the increasingly hostile treatment of Jews in this country and the reputation that Canada is acquiring as a woke, trendy, antisemitic country. I’ve written here before of the antics of the University of Toronto Faculty Association (UTFA) and its drooling hostility to Israel. The latest development on that very depressing subject was the association’s vote on May 8 demanding that the university pension plan divest of any securities issued by almost any company that trades with Israel. It is utterly scandalous that Israel should be singled out in this way, especially given the unrelievedly horrifying history of modern antisemitism. It is distressing to think the leadership of a faculty association in one of the principal universities of this country could go to the lengths that it has to adopt such a repulsive measure against such a much-wronged people.

I doubt we will be able to turn back the clock.

We are witnessing a culture change in Canada brought about by a ruinous mass immigration policy imposed upon us by the evil men and women of Canada’s elite.

Their greed made them evil and convinced them we were just numbers to be played with as they desired.

Canada is now a balkanized low trust society serving as proof of the lie that diversity would make us stronger.

Our replacements among the Bangladeshi’s, Chinese, Hindus, and Africans etc. care little about Jews and even less about White People.

You don’t have to wonder where the 2 million strong Islamist settlers resident amongst the shards of what was once Canada stand.

Annexation by the US and mass deportation of Islamists and other incompatible cultures may be all we can hope for.

I visited the fattest place in America, where fresh fruit is a 12-mile trip away

Clyde Anderson has a thick, raised scar, three centimetres wide, that runs down the centre of his chest where his ribcage was cut open.

In 2020, surgeons extracted veins from Anderson’s leg and grafted them to his heart in a quadruple bypass. His original coronary arteries had become so clogged with fat that he had had a heart attack.

“I was truck-driving and eating when I could, eating fast food,” says Anderson, 54. At the time, he weighed around 19 stone (120kg). “Then my health checked up on me.”

Is Climate Change Destroying the Environment?

Like most zany progressive schemes, the climate change cult has tremendous potential to create unintended consequences.

A recent article in the Washington Post  caught my eye. It outlined the astounding loss of over 3 million birds among breeding adults — 30 percent of the adult population — in the last half century (waterfowl are an exception due to wetlands protection). The article goes on to discuss possible causes. Not surprisingly loss of habitat was among them. Then, of course, the leading usual suspect was rounded up; that being climate change.

The Post — being the Post — did not dare to bring up solar and wind farms as culprits. That is the third rail of the Green-Industrial Complex and the Post, New York Times, and NPR dare not touch it for fear of offending their elite progressive base; or are birds and butterflies sacrifices on the altar of climate change?

Why Iran Will Never Give Up Its Nuclear Weapons

Iran’s ruling elite, bluntly, believes that both its survival and its mission depend on acquiring nuclear weapons. They saw what happened to Libya and Ukraine when their leaders gave up their nuclear weapons, and understood that this was not the way to go. To Iran’s rulers, their nuclear program is not just a policy objective to protect the continuation of their regime, but the centerpiece of Iran’s ideology and propaganda.

Despite having some of the world’s richest oil and gas reserves, the regime has accepted crushing sanctions and economic ruin, all under the excuse of pursuing nuclear power. The regime’s goal is the bomb.
