70% of Ontarians think it’s time for a change at Queen’s Park, poll suggests

Premier Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives remain the most popular party at Queen’s Park even though seven out of 10 Ontarians think it’s time for a change in government, a new poll suggests.

The Abacus Data survey found Ford’s Tories at 41 per cent support, while the Liberals, who elect a new leader Nov. 21, were at 32 per cent. Marit Stiles’s New Democrats, the Official Opposition, were at 19 per cent and Mike Schreiner’s Greens were at five per cent.

But 52 per cent of those polled said it was “definitely time for a change in government in Ontario,” with 18 per cent saying “it would be nice to change the government, but it’s not that important to me.”

Probably why Ford went anti-TFW all of a sudden.

South Africa teeters on the brink as anti-immigration protests trigger migrant departures

Thousands of African migrants are leaving South Africa as authorities confront a surge in anti-immigration protests and reported attacks on foreign nationals, with tensions escalating ahead of a June 30 deadline set by activist groups demanding government action on undocumented migration.

B.C. police issue arrest warrant for former provincial correctional officer charged with breach of trust

B.C. police have issued an arrest warrant for Naila Sheikh, a former correctional officer in the province who documents appear to indicate was the case manager for a convicted gang murderer at the time of his brazen escape from the Port Coquitlam prison in July 2022.

Sheikh, who formerly worked as a correctional officer at the North Fraser Pretrial Centre, has been charged with breach of trust, personation with intent to gain advantage, and unauthorized use of a computer.

Documents obtained by CBC News appear to indicate that Sheikh was directly assigned as a case manager for Rabih Alkhalil, whose escape from the facility on July 21, 2022, is still under investigation.

Usual suspects accuse US Supreme court conservatives of advancing ‘white-supremacist agenda’ for ruling in national interest

Lawmakers and immigration advocacy groups on Thursday sharply denounced two US supreme court rulings that allowed the Trump administration to strip certain immigration protections and fundamentally reshape the asylum system.

Dozens of groups, advocates and members of Congress called the court’s decisions “disastrous” and “cruel”, while the Trump administration, Republican lawmakers and anti-immigrant groups celebrated the rulings.

“Today, Trump’s loyalists in the supreme court have joined forces with him to deny immigrants’ internationally recognized human rights and advance an authoritarian, white-supremacist agenda at home,” said the Illinois congresswoman Delia Ramirez, a Democrat. “The supreme court’s decisions put more than 350,000 TPS holders at risk of deportation and countless more asylum seekers’ lives in danger.”

Canada made it easier for World Cup fans to cross the border, but they did not come

Late evening at the Peace Arch border crossing between Blaine, Wash., and Surrey, B.C., this week brought a flush of pink to the sky and a panorama of flashing green to the Canadian border, each light marking an open lane − eight in total.

Two cars pulled up and quickly made their way through. Most of the lanes stood empty.

The World Cup a bust? No problem! Canadian tax payers are footing the bill.

Lost memoir of Hiroshima survivor found after decades in US archive

The memoir of a man who survived the horrors of Hiroshima is to be published for the first time this summer after its discovery in a US archive.

The 230-page memoir was written almost 80 years ago by Kiyoshi Tanimoto, who witnessed the city’s destruction after the atomic bomb was dropped in 1945. He will now be portrayed in a feature film by Takehiro Hira, whose acclaimed roles include the detective in the Netflix Japanese-British drama Giri/Haji. Pre-production begins in November, ahead of the shoot in February 2027.

Dozens of people in GTA could face deportation over possible extortion ties: CBSA

The Canada Border Services Agency says removal orders have been issued for dozens of people in the Greater Toronto Area with possible ties to extortion following enhanced tracking of immigration enforcement cases that began in the fall of last year.

In a news release, the agency said it began taking a closer look at enforcement cases with potential links to extortion last year, beginning with the Pacific and Prairie regions in August.

In November, the CBSA said, this approach was extended to the GTA.

Dozens? How about 2 million or so?

John Bolton CONFESSES in court he stole government secrets in stunning reversal

President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton walked into federal court with a very stern expression before admitting to stealing national security secrets.

He pleaded guilty on Friday to a single charge of retaining classified information – a significant update in his criminal case, and one that may help him avoid a lengthy jail sentence.

Under the terms of the deal, Bolton could serve up to 60 months, or 5 years, in prison in exchange for his guilty plea. He may also be required to pay a fine of up to $2.25 million and serve 100 hours of community service.

Carney’s ridiculous, myopic plan to bail out condo developers

It is patently unfair that the Carney government has announced plans to bail out condo developers in British Columbia, without even a mention of the struggling venture capitalists in Ontario, the hedge fund managers in Quebec, and the corporate CEOs in Alberta.

Do they not have mouths to feed on their private yachts? Are they not also feeling pressure at the pumps (it’s not like you can put regular unleaded in a McLaren)? And what of the telco giants, who are struggling with sluggish growth and investment opportunities? Where is their billion dollars?

It’s good to see the Elbow people get what they voted for.

Amy Hamm: Remember when Katy Perry’s boyfriend tanked our economy?

I cannot take any more of Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry’s public romance. Yes, I know that by writing about it I am only drawing more attention to the matter — but please allow me to indulge in some catharsis, here. I’m certain that swathes of us Canadians are feeling the same revulsion towards the pair’s very public displays of affection, which include Trudeau staring Perry down like a famished tiger.

Crisis looms for Pope Leo as splinter sect seeks to ordain far-right bishops

A far-right Catholic sect’s plan to ordain its own bishops on the first day of July has placed it on a collision course with the Vatican – posing a possible crisis for Pope Leo a little over a year into his papacy, and straining the Roman Catholic church’s already fraught relationship with rightwing and traditionalist Catholics in the US and elsewhere.

Founded in Switzerland in 1970 to oppose liberalizing reforms in the Catholic church, the Society of St Pius X (SSPX) has gained significant followings in the US, France, Argentina and other countries. The order, which has a large base of operations in Kansas, claims that more than half a million people worldwide attend its masses, though these numbers are difficult to verify. It counts nearly 1,500 priests, seminarians and other vocational members among its members.

Bangladeshi Muslim who raped girl, 12, states child rape is his culture

A Bangladeshi man who raped a 12-year-old girl and groomed a nine-year-old in Britain lacked “English moral values”, a court heard.

Tarek Miah, who abused his young victims after grooming them on TikTok and Snapchat, may have had an adverse attitude towards young girls because of his “culture”, prosecutors said.
Miah, 20, was jailed for 15 years at Portsmouth Crown Court in Hampshire after admitting eight charges, including four counts of raping a child under the age of 13.

Prime Minister Mark Carney recently said what many Canadians have suspected for years. Caught on a hot microphone during a meeting with Croatia’s Prime Minister, Carney remarked that Members of Parliament are “just useful for votes.”
