New Liberal leadership candidate promotes rent freeze, free GO Transit

A $22 minimum wage, a rent freeze and free GO Transit are on the agenda for housing executive Vikram Handa as he enters Ontario’s Liberal leadership race ahead of Friday’s 5 p.m. deadline.

The bilingual graduate of Oakwood Collegiate in Toronto and the University of British Columbia law school has been quietly touring the province gathering ideas for his campaign in the Nov. 21 contest.

Sounds like a stealth Mamdani.

Trump backtracks from promise to let Ukraine build Patriot missiles

Trump backtracks from promise to let Ukraine build Patriot missiles

Donald Trump has backed off a promise to let Ukraine manufacture its own Patriot air defense interceptors, telling reporters that handing over the underlying technology was “a hard thing to give away” during a cabinet meeting at Camp David.

The retreat, billed by the White House as “something different” for the cabinet to experience together, was the first such meeting at the presidential compound of Trump’s second term.

Canada Is Welcoming Chinese Cars. Here’s Why That Matters for America.

Canada Is Welcoming Chinese Cars. Here’s Why That Matters for America.

Chinese-brand cars are sitting at Canadian ports, waiting to be unloaded. The first dealerships of BYD, Geely, and Chery are set to open this fall in Vancouver, Toronto, and Montréal, with more to follow by the end of the year. And not one of those cars can legally be sold in the United States.

That gap—vehicles landing at America’s doorstep that can’t be sold across the border—is the center of a quiet contest now unfolding on the northern frontier. The United States has walled out
Chinese cars with a 100 percent tariff and a national security rule that bars China-owned automakers from the U.S. market even if they build their cars on American soil.

But Canada has moved the other way. In January, it agreed to let in a rising number of Chinese electric vehicles at a tariff of only 6.1 percent, breaking ranks with Washington.

Facebook Shuts Down Large Groups Coordinating Invasion of Spain’s Ceuta

Facebook Shuts Down Large Groups Coordinating Invasion of Spain’s Ceuta

Meta has shut down five major Facebook groups that were actively coordinating large-scale illegal crossings into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, following intense scrutiny on X.

Collectively boasting over 230,000 members, these groups served as hubs for prospective migrants to plan sea routes, exchange phone numbers, buy border-crossing equipment, and coordinate logistics. The closures come amid videos on social media attesting to more than 50,000 migrants having already successfully arrived in the small Spanish enclave bordering Morocco, pushing local security and reception resources to their limits.

Canada Is Functioning Like Dubai — and the Unsealed Files on Ryan Wedding’s Jailed Trucking Broker Show a Justice System Endangered by Networks Exploiting It

Canada Is Functioning Like Dubai — and the Unsealed Files on Ryan Wedding’s Jailed Trucking Broker Show a Justice System Endangered by Networks Exploiting It

TORONTO — Citing newly unsealed police warrant documents, CBC News has added significant new details to the profile of the accused Ryan Wedding cartel member uncovered in York Regional Police’s explosive Project South investigation — which alleges that the suspect, Gurpreet Singh, was involved in a plot to assassinate a senior Ontario jail official. That alleged scheme, in The Bureau‘s analysis of the allegations, would have drawn on the same marketplace of teenage contract sicarios this publication has documented in the Greater Toronto Area.

The Foreign Invasion In The UK Will Ruin Your English Countryside Vacation

The Foreign Invasion In The UK Will Ruin Your English Countryside Vacation

According to a glowing report on NBC’s Today program last week, thousands of well-heeled American visitors are flocking to spend vacations in the English countryside this summer, seeking to commune with the parent country of their ancestors, in what NBC said transatlantic visitors fondly imagine to be the “land of Downton Abbey and Jane Austen.”

What Europe’s Lack of Air Conditioning Says About Its Civilizational Direction

What Europe’s Lack of Air Conditioning Says About Its Civilizational Direction

As the North American FIFA World Cup unfolded, many online videos posted on social media platforms featured Europeans overwhelmed by the wonders of American air-conditioning. Outside of a few especially temperate regions, almost every American household owns an A/C, doing homeowners a favor in periods of rising temperatures and extreme heat. In the meantime, most homes in Europe do not have air conditioning.

Canada Orders Doctors to Falsify MAiD Death Certificates

Canada Orders Doctors to Falsify MAiD Death Certificates

The government system to euthanize Canadians is running into problems with the language of killing.

From Newfoundland to Alberta, physicians are instructed to erase the state’s role in nearly 100,000 MAiD killings. British Columbia alone tells the truth. The question is why everyone else has chosen not to.

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario has instructed physicians completing death certificates for patients who die by Medical Assistance in Dying …

The invasion of Ceuta must be the final nail in the coffin of globalism

The invasion of Ceuta must be the final nail in the coffin of globalism

Can we say ‘invasion’ now? What other word is there for the rough intrusion of tens of thousands of young men into the sovereign territory of a foreign nation? Surely not even the sappiest leftist in his tattered keffiyeh and ‘Refugees Welcome’ t-shirt would describe the thuggish gatecrashing of an independent nation as ‘asylum seeking’? That might be the one and only upside to the extraordinary events in Ceuta yesterday: the death, at last, of euphemism. The impossibility of any longer dressing up the West’s suicidal abandonment of its borders as ‘kindness’.

There is talk that Morocco orchestrated the invasion, an act of war in my view.

Whine and Poses: Feminists “Confront Antifeminist Ideologies”

Whine and Poses: Feminists “Confront Antifeminist Ideologies”

It’s difficult to be surprised by last month’s Report of the Standing Committee on the Status of Women, entitled “Confronting Antifeminist Ideologies in Canada”—but it is nonetheless remarkable that such tone-deaf anti-male pap continues to preoccupy the Canadian federal government.

The Standing Committee on the Status of Women is the bureaucratic arm of Canada’s radical feminist movement. Its grip on power, consolidated in 1991 with The War Against Women, produced after the Montreal Massacre, is now essentially unchallenged. The Committee is made up of feminist Members of Parliament who consult with feminist academics, organizers, and advocates to advise the Canadian government on its gender policies.
