After 42 years of trying, Canada loses another bid to deport alleged top Mafia boss in Toronto

On the 42nd anniversary of Ottawa trying to deport a man who police named as Toronto’s top Mafia boss, the government has again failed to prove he should be deported back to Italy.

The Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) rejected arguments that Vincenzo DeMaria, better known as Jimmy DeMaria, has been a member of the shadowy and powerful ’Ndrangheta, which is the proper name of the Mafia formed in Italy’s southern region of Calabria, and that he engaged in Mafia activities, including money laundering.

Geert Wilders: Worry About Demographic Change, Not Climate Change

Geert Wilders: Worry About Demographic Change, Not Climate Change

The holiday season is not over yet, but it is time for some reflection. Those who have been travelling in Western Europe will undoubtedly have noticed how our continent is rapidly changing.

From Bergen, Norway, to Cork, Ireland, from Salzburg, Austria, to Florence, Italy, from Hamburg, Germany, to Perpignan, France, everywhere the number of djellabas, headscarves, even niqabs, has dramatically risen.

God made toddlers smaller than adults for a reason

God made toddlers smaller than adults for a reason

We lack a word in the English language for the emotion that floods the body of a parent who is the custodian of a screaming child on an airplane. It is some combination of humiliation, helplessness and a palpable sense of being judged. Your brain considers all sorts of scenarios in that moment: Can I order a rye for the baby? How long will it take me to die if I jump out the window? Maybe I’m already dying? Surely death would be less painful.

America — Not China — Is World’s Energy Superpower

America — Not China — Is World’s Energy Superpower

“China Is Now the World’s Great Oil Power,” The Economist declared on August 9.

So, what is the significance of this pronouncement? The world’s oil power is also the world’s energy power. The world’s energy power, in turn, is a leading contender for the world’s dominant power. “Energy is the foundational brick of the global economy,” Jonathan Bass, the CEO of Argent LNG, told Gatestone.

China, the world’s largest importer of crude oil, exerts great leverage over markets, but The Economist is nonetheless wrong.

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers approves permit for Line 5 pipeline project in Michigan

Following a recent setback, plans to build a tunnel for Enbridge’s Line 5 oil pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac in Michigan have received approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The permit issued Wednesday is required for a plan to replace the pipeline crossing in the straits with a tunnel. The approval comes after Michigan’s supreme court recently ordered state regulators to reconsider another permit for the project.

There Aren’t Enough Ships to Handle China’s Booming Car Exports

There Aren’t Enough Ships to Handle China’s Booming Car Exports

China’s auto factories are building so many cars for export that the global shipping industry can’t keep up.

Specialized car carriers, essentially floating parking garages, are booked out years ahead to export cars from Chinese factories. Rates to charter ships are up 65% this year on the surging demand to move vehicles out of China.

Chinese carmakers are flooding foreign markets because of fierce competition between more than 100 domestic auto brands, overproduction and a sluggish economy. Now, the shipping industry is navigating skyrocketing rates and scarce capacity.

Canada seeks to acquire long-range strike system widely used in Ukraine war

Canada seeks to acquire long-range strike system widely used in Ukraine war

Canada is moving quickly to secure a long-range strike system that has proved effective in the war in Ukraine, putting much of the country’s evolving defence-procurement strategy to the test.

The deep-precision strike (DPS) system that Canada is looking to buy from another country initially, and later develop in-house, is somewhere between a long-range one-way attack drone and a cruise missile.

It’s a mode of attack that several North Atlantic Treaty Organization members, including Canada, have identified an urgent need for based upon observations from the war in Ukraine. Germany and Norway are among the countries with companies leading in this field.

‘Woke 2.0’ Will Be More Radical, More Antisemitic, and Even Less Tolerant

Several PJ Media writers have commented on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s attempt to put a new suit of clothes on “woke” in order to hide the stench of hate, intolerance, hysteria, and lunacy associated with it.

“I have a local city councilman that has this saying, ‘Woke 1 was crazy,'” said Ocasio-Cortez with a laugh during an interview with ABC News host Jonathan Karl recently.

Canadian companies betting Trump will buckle ahead of 50% tariff deadline

Canadian companies betting Trump will buckle ahead of 50% tariff deadline

Industry insiders say companies are opting to wait and see as the clock ticks down on U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest tariff deadline, rather than rushing shipments across the border to beat the buzzer.

A new round of 50 per cent tariffs on nearly US$20 billion worth of Canadian goods ranging from dairy to down jackets is set to take effect Aug. 19.
