Federal poll finds nearly half of Canadians think country takes ‘too many immigrants’

OTTAWA — A survey commissioned by the federal government late last year suggests nearly half of Canadians believe the country is admitting too many immigrants — but the share of respondents who think so has dropped since last year’s polling.

The survey found 47 per cent of respondents believe “too many” immigrants are coming to Canada, while 38 per cent say “about the right amount” are coming.

A similar government poll conducted in late 2024 reported 54 per cent of respondents saying that “too many” immigrants were coming to Canada.

I bet the poll respondents in favour of immigration are foreigners.

Transgender troops can remain in US military, but enlistment can be blocked, court rules

Transgender troops can remain in US military, but enlistment can be blocked, court rules

Transgender troops can remain in the US military, but the armed services can continue to block their enlistment, an appeals court ruled on Monday in a split decision with potentially significant consequences for the Trump administration’s anti-diversity agenda.

The divided, majority opinion by a three-judge panel of the US court of appeals for Washington DC is expected to be challenged by the government. And the case is ultimately likely to reach the US supreme court.

The ruling was held from going into immediate effect, allowing the administration time to ask the full appeals court to hear the case.

‘Really disheartening’: Canadians choosing not to snap up remaining ‘out-of-reach’ World Cup tickets

‘Really disheartening’: Canadians choosing not to snap up remaining ‘out-of-reach’ World Cup tickets

Just a short walk away from the Toronto stadium that will host the world’s biggest soccer tournament in less than two weeks, a group of a dozen or so men in their 20s have decided to use the beautiful Sunday afternoon weather to start an impromptu soccer game at the field neighbouring their homes.

All of them are some of the biggest soccer fans you can find in the city — but none of them will be attending the FIFA World Cup matches in their own backyard.

We are gonna get soaked.

Food Banks Canada says employment insurance doesn’t serve modern workforce

Food Banks Canada says Canada’s employment insurance no longer serves the broader and shifting workforce as more people take up gig work or part-time jobs.

In its latest poverty report card, the organization says the labour market has shifted toward part-time, temporary and contract work, while EI only caters to a shrinking workforce that has stable, full-time work with a single employer.

THE PROSECUTOR WHO STAYED: On a Remote American Island, a Texas Lawyer Watched China Buy What It Could Not Conquer

THE PROSECUTOR WHO STAYED: On a Remote American Island, a Texas Lawyer Watched China Buy What It Could Not Conquer

SAIPAN – The irony was almost too neat, and Jim Kingman felt it land as he sat in the gleaming, barely used federal courthouse on Saipan in the summer of 2024 and watched the United States government close the book on Julian Assange.

They had come a very long way to do it. The head of the Justice Department’s national security division flew in that morning; by early afternoon the WikiLeaks founder had pleaded guilty to a single Espionage Act count over the disclosure of Bradley Manning’s classified files, been sentenced to time served, and was gone — three hours, beginning to end, the federal lawyers not bothering to feign curiosity about the island they had chosen as the stage.

Idle youth UK: Are ‘Neets’ jobs being taken by migrants?

THE Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) published some startling figures on Thursday. The latest HMRC payroll data, their analysis reveals, shows that the number of young foreigners entering the workforce massively outstrips UK nationals.

Specifically the number of non-EU migrants on the payrolls rose from 82,000 in January 2020 to 370,000 in December 2025 – an increase of 290,000 and up 355 per cent over five years compared to just 11,000 extra young UK nationals.

Why people hate humanoid robots

Why people hate humanoid robots

At Cooper’s Brewery in Adelaide, the largest family-owned brewing business in Australia, forklifts glide around the sizeable factory floor. With ease, they shelve boxes of lagers and ales. But nobody is at the wheel. In fact, there isn’t a wheel at all. Or a seat. These forklifts are automated guided vehicles (AGVs), a pretty old form of robotics that uses lasers, floor markers or other navigation systems to follow pre-planned paths.

People had always imagined that robots would look like us, but these forklifts hint at a different future — one in which robots are made in the image of the work, not the worker.

Reform is now the undisputed party of the working class

Reform is now the undisputed party of the working class

This week brings yet more evidence of working-class voters having ditched the Labour Party for Reform UK. A new survey reveals that trade-union members, who have historically been very left-wing, are now evenly split between support for Reform and Labour. Astonishingly, Nigel Farage comes out on top as their preferred choice for prime minister. It is Farage, not Keir Starmer, who is perceived as the party leader most likely to benefit working people.
