Canada’s justice system has now sent its message, and it is not subtle.
Tamara Lich and Chris Barber were not murderers, arsonists, violent revolutionaries, or even criminals. They were two Canadians who helped lead a peaceful protest against government mandates during one of the most heavy-handed periods in modern Canadian history. For that, the Crown vigorously pursued them for years, seeking prison terms of seven years for Lich and eight years for Barber.
Police investigating the alleged murder of Ann Widdecombe say there is “nothing to suggest it was politically motivated”.
Devon and Cornwall Police added they are not looking for anyone else in connection with her death, following the arrest of a 28-year-old white British man in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, on Saturday.
The former MP and MEP, 78, was found dead at her home in Haytor, Devon, on Thursday, having sustained serious injuries. Police believe she had been attacked almost 24 hours earlier.
Police in the UK are so politicized and their record of honesty so suspect that no one should trust this finding.
In 1961, U.S. President John F. Kennedy famously said, about the U.S.-Canada relationship, that: “Geography has made us neighbours. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners. And necessity has made us allies.”
Fast-forward 65 years, and Canada and the United States are still neighbours, partners and allies. It just doesn’t feel like they are good friends right now. In some ways, the relationship feels less like a friendship than a very long marriage under strain. One partner is angry, the other partner distracted. Both are still deeply tied together by shared interests and a future that cannot easily be separated.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, a close ally of US President Donald Trump, has died at the age of 71.
His office released a statement saying he died on Saturday evening following “a brief and sudden illness”.
Elected to the Senate in 2002, the South Carolina politician was one of Washington’s most influential voices on foreign policy.
A burst of gunfire near the Salsa on St. Clair street festival Saturday night killed two men, seriously wounded four others and sent thousands of festivalgoers fleeing in panic through the streets in Toronto’s west end.
Toronto police were called to reports of a shooting near St. Clair Avenue West and Arlington Avenue, just west of the festival grounds, shortly after 8:10 p.m. A total of six people were found with gunshot wounds, including two men who died — one at the scene, the other in hospital — according to Toronto police.
When the shooting started …

Nothing new under the Sun yet, neither of the two suspected perp’s identified.
The share of foreigners involved in gang rapes hit a record high in 2025, reaching 53 percent. A total of 751 victims were gang-raped in the country. The data comes from a response by the German federal government to a parliamentary request by the Alternative for Germany (AfD).
Conservatives who think leader Pierre Poilievre needs to step down are doing their party no favours. There is also little agreement about why he needs to go, at least when you factor in the differing opinions from online activists and MPs speaking anonymously to Ottawa reporters over the past year.
Two in five Britons believe Muslims cannot integrate into British society and more than half believe the country’s national identity is disappearing due to “diversity”, a report authored by a former government adviser on extremism has found.
Sara Khan, who stood down in 2024 as the UK’s first counter-extremism commissioner, said such views contrasted sharply with accompanying findings that showed 85% of Muslims “favour integration”.
Extremist views were being exploited and promoted by hostile states and malign domestic actors, it was said. Researchers logged 1,784 far-right offline events and 225 Islamist events over a 12-month period.
Sara Khan is a lying Islamist 5th columnist.
For more than a century, cities have been shaped around the automobile. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) promise to rewrite that relationship. Advocates envision safer roads, less need for parking and greater mobility for people who cannot drive. Skeptics warn that fleets of robotaxis could eliminate jobs, increase traffic congestion and weaken public transit.
A federal judge on Friday awarded Hunter Biden $1.7m in punitive damages in a defamation lawsuit he filed against former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne.
Biden sued Byrne – a Donald Trump ally who denied the results of the 2020 election and funded efforts to overturn them – in 2023, accusing Byrne of lying in an interview that Biden had previously sought a bribe from Iran’s government in the fall of 2021.
Joe Biden, Hunter’s father, was the US president at the time. And Byrne in an interview lied that Hunter Biden – in exchange for an $800m bribe – had offered Iran to go to his father, have him “unfreeze” $8bn in frozen Iranian assets and ensure that the US would “go easy” on Iran during “nuclear talks” between the two countries, according to Hunter Biden’s lawsuit.
In 1995, the great American conservative thinker Thomas Sowell authored a seminal book on the mindset of liberal elites — The Vision of the Anointed — Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy.
While obviously not based on the bizarre journeys of the Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney governments on the issue of climate change, it describes, with remarkable foresight what happened in Canada starting two decades later.
French political figure Éric Zemmour is arguing that robotics represents the true economic future of France, offering a technological solution to labor shortages in factories and farms rather than relying on mass immigration.
“Robotics is the economic future of France. Robots will provide our factories and our farmers with the arms they are missing. France can choose technology rather than migratory submersion through work. For an eternal, powerful, and sovereign France in modernity: more robots, fewer immigrants,” wrote Zemmour on X.
WINNIPEG — Rather than telling the story of the Arab refugee crisis as a tragic consequence of a complex war, the new “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present” exhibit at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights presents it as an unprovoked expulsion, encouraging visitors to view Palestinian displacement as the product of Israeli intent alone.
