LILLEY: Why is Mark Carney hiring Americans for the PMO?

Mark Carney is a man of many firsts, but I wouldn’t have picked him to be the first prime minister to hire an American to help run the Prime Minister’s Office.

This week, it was reported that Carney was promoting a woman unknown to most Canadians to the position of chief operating officer in the PMO.

Moaning husband details hellish misery woke Canadian wife is suffering in ICE custody as she faces deportation for slapping teens wearing MAGA clothing

Moaning husband details hellish misery woke Canadian wife is suffering in ICE custody as she faces deportation for slapping teens wearing MAGA clothing

The husband of a Canadian woman who is set to be deported for allegedly slapping a teenage girl wearing MAGA-branded clothing says she is enduring hellish conditions inside a squalid immigration facility.

Kaitlyn Tracey, 33, is locked up at New Jersey’s notoriously grim immigration facility Delaney Hall, after being detained over an alleged assault on a teen during Fourth of July celebrations on the Jersey Shore.

Police said Tracey confronted a group of teenagers who were wearing ‘patriotic colored’ clothes, which were reportedly emblazoned with ‘Trump’ and ‘ICE’, before she allegedly slapped one of the teens.

Germany Plans Secret Home Raids and Teenage Informants

Germany Plans Secret Home Raids and Teenage Informants

Germany’s domestic intelligence agency could soon be authorised to secretly alter digital data, hack into private computers and mobile phones, enter homes without occupants’ knowledge, recruit 16- and 17-year-olds as informants, and never inform citizens that they had been subjected to surveillance.

The draft law, prepared by Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt, would dramatically expand the powers of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz, BfV), Germany’s domestic intelligence agency.

Canadians Like Depraved Slave Labour Camp Called China More Than US Says Pew Research Survey

Canadians Like Depraved Slave Labour Camp Called China More Than US Says Pew Research Survey

Canadians’ opinions of the United States have deteriorated while their perceptions of China have improved compared to a few years ago, a new report suggests.

According to a Pew Research Center report released Wednesday, 44 per cent of Canadians surveyed between February and May hold a favourable view of China, while 33 per cent feel the same about the U.S. Last year, Canadians were “equally” favourable toward both countries. But in 2023, most Canadians had a “positive view” of the U.S. at 57 per cent, compared to 14 per cent that viewed China positively.

Mark Carney looks good but economy tells different story

Mark Carney looks good but economy tells different story

Mark Carney has presided over the worst first year of economic growth of any prime minister since Lester Pearson in 1963 — 63 years ago! Even Justin Trudeau, who was an economic disaster for 10 years as PM, had a better first year than Carney.

Real gross domestic product shrank last year, an outcome Carney blamed on his predecessor’s government decision to limit non-permanent resident visas.

Lawsuit: Wikipedia Shields Online ‘Trolls’ Pushing Malicious Smear Campaign

Lawsuit: Wikipedia Shields Online ‘Trolls’ Pushing Malicious Smear Campaign

Decorated film producer Ryan Kavanaugh is suing Wikimedia Foundation for allegedly protecting two “trolls” who were paid to wage an online smear campaign that Kavanaugh claims cost him more than $1 billion.

Wikipedia is already facing renewed scrutiny after it banned its own founder for protesting the site’s allowance of “ideologically motivated bullies” and anti-free speech policies. Kavanaugh’s lawsuit, filed in February, accuses the organization of allowing paid bullies to attack a man with false or misleading information while operating under the guise of being a “trustworthy” source.

The Prophecy From Constantinople

The Prophecy From Constantinople

Mimicking the apocalypse in dramatic intensity, if not in scale, the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 rates as a turning point in history. Posterity may recognize both a brutal end to the Byzantine Empire and a stark warning of what happens when a weakened civilization faces an unrelenting conqueror. In significance, this event, where the ancient walls of the Eastern Roman capital crumbled under Ottoman cannon fire, surpassed a military defeat; it was the death knell for a millennium-old bastion of Christianity, signaling the inexorable advance of Islamic imperialism across Europe and the Near East.

America Isn’t the Enemy: The Wrongful Dismissal Case Shaking Ottawa’s China Strategy

America Isn’t the Enemy: The Wrongful Dismissal Case Shaking Ottawa’s China Strategy

I’m back with Jason James to discuss an explosive wrongful dismissal claim that I believe may get to the heart of Mark Carney’s pivot to Beijing — and to a larger question now facing Canada.

Who is this government really listening to?

The case involves Raquel Garbers, a senior Canadian defence policy specialist and military figure who, according to reporting on her legal claim, helped shape Canada’s Arctic and NORAD defence policy — the very architecture that binds Canadian and American security together against the real strategic threats facing North America.

Carney’s $160,000 in-flight catering bill draws criticism from taxpayers group

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s delegation spent nearly $160,000 on in-flight catering during a single overseas trip, according to government records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, prompting renewed criticism over government travel spending.

The records show Carney and a 55-member entourage spent $159,800 on meals during a week-long trip to Athens, Abu Dhabi, Johannesburg and the Canary Islands in November 2025.

That amounts to roughly $2,850 per passenger.
