Heavily armed police patrols are circulating in Toronto as part of a new counter-terrorism unit.
This is the new Canada. Canada didn't need a militarized police force before mass immigration made our society dangerous. pic.twitter.com/SPPzYzA7vc

Faizal? Meet the folks who will be shooting at you.
I think now would be a good time to remind everyone of just how bad the rhetoric of the left has been. pic.twitter.com/j9Op5TRwy5

Last Tuesday evening at a packed meeting, the municipal council of Prince Edward County missed an opportunity to do the right thing: Reinstall their statue of Sir John A. Macdonald in the picturesque town of Picton.
By a vote of 8-6, the councillors rejected the start of a consultative process to restore the statue of Macdonald that was removed from Main Street in June 2021 amid repeated vandalism.

Professionals who have experience with anti-money laundering laws are not shocked by the indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). If the facts alleged in the indictment are true, they appear to support charges that are unremarkable and to be expected. Those allegations also strongly suggest the possibility of more indictments.
OTTAWA – In April 2025, Mehmet Tohti received what appeared to be a routine message on WhatsApp. The sender claimed to be a well-known Uyghur film director and ethnomusicologist — someone Tohti, a leading Uyghur-Canadian rights advocate based in Ottawa, had every reason to trust. The director wanted to send him something official by email. Could Tohti share his address?
Tohti knew better than most what it meant to be a target of Beijing.
In the wake of Saturday’s most recent assassination attempt on the life of President Trump, former President Barack Obama posted on Sunday a social media statement in which he declared that “we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind [the] shooting.” Apparently he didn’t read the failed assassin’s manifesto, which The New York Post published in full – 1052 words he sent to family members just 10 minutes or so before he barreled through a security cordon toward the room in which Trump, administration officials such as Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller, and other guests attended the White House Correspondents Dinner.
While Prime Minister Mark Carney plans to double Canada’s non-U.S. exports to $600 billion annually in 10 years, a new study by the Fraser Institute suggests it’s probably unachievable.
In other words, the prime minister’s target may be an aspirational one, rather than real.
As much as prime minister Keir Starmer may wish to convince himself – and the public – that the UK does not have a free-speech problem, the evidence is overwhelmingly stacked against him.
Until recently, the only CBC television program I would watch was “Still Standing,” hosted by comedian Jonny Harris. The show tackled the many examples across Canada of business failures and how their host communities had tried to recover — and are still standing. Communities like the one I live in, Nipigon, which in 2007 lost the Multiply Forest Products plywood mill to fire. A devastating event that came on the heels of the permanent shutdown of the Norampac container board mill in nearby Red Rock the year before. Two small towns on the north shore of Lake Superior were hit hard by the sudden closure of their primary industries within a year of one another.
One of the Pentagon’s most famous UFO videos is facing new scrutiny after secret NASA emails raised fresh questions about how it was analyzed.
The ‘GoFast’ encounter, recorded by Navy pilots tracking a fast-moving object off the Atlantic coast in 2015, was assessed by NASA as most likely showing an ordinary object drifting with the wind.
But newly released documents obtained by UFO researcher Grant Lavac through the Freedom of Information Act revealed that NASA’s 2023 review relied entirely on publicly available footage and did not include interviews with the Navy aviators who witnessed the encounter.
Claire Elyse Brosseau has been waiting years for the Canadian government to let her die.
The 49-year-old has struggled for decades with a laundry list of mental diagnoses, including Bipolar 1 disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and disordered eating. All of this has made her life unbearable, she says.
You ever read Peter Turchin? He’s the historian who invented “cliodynamics,” a historical field that analyzes patterns in history in a scientific way, to try to find predictive meaning. His 2023 book End Times explains why he thinks we are in for a rough go of it in America, based on historical patterns. Back in 2010, he predicted that the 2020s would be tumultuous, based on his cliodynamic analysis.
In early 2022, when I was president-elect of the CMA, I had a phone conversation with Tom, one of my oldest friends, about the trucker protests in Ottawa. At the time, I was focused on what patients and colleagues were living through. He was focused on the threat to rights and freedoms. The conversation became existential. Accusations were made. He hung up. We did not speak properly again for years.
King Charles III’s visit to the US was meant to be a celebration – of America’s 250th anniversary, of enduring Anglo-American ties and of the “special relationship”. But it has also been billed as a rescue mission.
The current state of US-UK relations is strained – a reflection of British reluctance to fully back the joint US-Israeli war against Iran. So the King’s goal has been to ease those tensions with a royal charm offensive, most notably with his joint address to Congress on Tuesday afternoon.
There is some reason for hope. President Donald Trump has a notably mercurial personality. Warm relations can turn chilly in a flash. But the reverse is also true, and former antagonists can be rehabilitated, welcomed once again into the president’s good graces.
