I’m no fan of Wes Streeting. The wannabe UK prime minister, defeated before a Labour leadership contest was even declared, has been wrong on just about every issue going. But whatever you think of the former health secretary, we would surely all agree that there could be no justification for calls to harm him or his property.
In June, the government of Canada’s Standing Committee on the Status of Women submitted a parliamentary report titled “Confronting Antifeminist Ideologies in Canada.”
The report is proof of how petty and out of touch with reality — and with the real threat to women’s rights in this country, i.e. gender ideology — that the federal government truly is. I simply don’t know where to start.
Report Pdf below.
In a disturbing case that has ignited fierce debate across Austria, a 12-year-old Syrian boy allegedly stabbed three teenage boys in a Vienna park, seriously injuring one with life-threatening wounds. Since he is below the country’s age of criminal responsibility of 14, the young suspect was released to his family shortly after police detained him without any charges.
Two members of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s inner circle are getting a boost as part of a staff shuffle prompted by the appointment of his principal secretary to the Senate and a deputy chief of staff departing to run for office.
Scott Gilmore, currently Mr. Carney’s senior adviser on foreign, defence and security policy, is being promoted to principal secretary as of later this month, three sources told The Globe and Mail.
The sources also said that Maia Johnson, currently a senior adviser for Canada-U.S. relations, is taking on an additional role as chief operating officer.
Carney’s rewarding his old failed GFANZ climate cartel crew. Maia Johnson — ex-GFANZ Secretariat/Bloomberg aide — just got handed a shiny new “Chief Operating Officer” title in the PMO (plus her U.S. adviser gig)

If Poilievre did this our Media would be screaming “Foreign Interference” for a month.
My guess is she’s Carney’s Net Zero Sidepiece
The sources said she is connected to Mr. Carney through his prior work with the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), which he launched while he was the United Nations Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance. But they did not know the specifics.

The European Parliament adopted a resolution last week condemning the abduction, forced conversion and child marriage of Maria Shahbaz, a Christian girl from Lahore whose case has become a symbol of the risks faced by girls from Pakistan’s religious minorities.
The federal government is refusing to release the details of a revised agreement governing the Gordie Howe International Bridge after Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed Canada will share future toll revenues with the United States, departing from the original 2012 agreement.
Blacklock’s Reporter said the issue surfaced after U.S. President Donald Trump announced on social media that he had negotiated more favourable terms for the United States.
Ah, Toronto, Canada. A city that’s doing more for the cause of gun rights than probably any other community on the planet, and not because they’ve embraced it and shown the world that law-abiding gun owners aren’t the problem, but the answer. Oh no, because Canada has done the exact opposite, and Toronto has become a horrific place to hang out.

Nearly three months after Jennifer May’s four-year appointment as Canadian ambassador to China ended, the office remains dark, with little word about why.
This is obviously a key position in Canada’s diplomatic corps, but in an era of prioritizing trade relations, this office requires more than a sharp business mind.
Do not ask this person if they are trans because it’s rude.

How did you spend America’s 250th birthday? New York’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, spent it lecturing America about racism and xenophobia while his wife attended an Islamic “spiritual wellness” retreat.
It was another reminder of the ugly rise of socialism in America.
VANCOUVER — British Columbia’s Pacific ports have become an exploitable platform for what a new security analysis calls “hybrid threat pressure” — the non-kinetic tactics by which hostile states and transnational criminal networks penetrate supply chains, move contraband, launder money and position themselves inside critical infrastructure — because Canada never built the security architecture to match the trade strategy it laid over the Pacific.
The boom in data-center construction is one of the most important economic developments in recent history, helping to power the promise of AI-enabled growth. Yet opposing data centers has rapidly become a unifying cause across a broad coalition of some of the nation’s most ardent left-wing activist groups, who have made it their mission to disrupt this innovation at all costs.
Organizers for the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) link data-center growth to rising utility costs and concentrated Big Tech power. “Anti-imperialist” groups portray AI as a tool of surveillance and militarization. Anti-ICE activists argue that data centers enable immigration enforcement and expand domestic surveillance.
OTTAWA — With Canada’s affordability crisis dashing dreams of home ownership for many, Canadians are now finding that owning a new car is also becoming out of reach.
Released on Tuesday, AutoTrader’s Q2 2026 automotive price index suggests that even though new car prices have eased slightly, one in seven Canadians are abandoning plans to purchase a new car off the lot, opting instead for more affordable used options.
