Best-selling Chinese electric car records everywhere you’ve been
Electric cars made by a best-selling Chinese brand are recording drivers’ every journey and storing them forever, it has emerged.
Security researchers were able to extract the entire location history of a BYD Seal car sold in the UK, from its production in China to its eventual dismantling.
While the company said it was not transmitting location data overseas, experts said the ease with which location history could be obtained represented a security risk.
BYD is moving into the Canadian market.
WTF?
Apparently, it takes 2 cars, 2 drivers and 4 body guards for the Governor General to go get BBQ chicken. The grift and absolute entitlement is off the charts in this country. It infuriates me. Here I am re-using tea bags and these assholes are acting like Queens pic.twitter.com/T7ocnsccch

GOLDSTEIN: Is Canada becoming a one-party state?
While the federal Liberals smugly refer to themselves as Canada’s natural governing party, the historical record suggests that may be true, despite the danger it poses to democracy.
They’ve been in charge of the country 70% of the time since 1900.
Cole Allen, 31-year-old California teacher, ID’d as White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter
WASHINGTON — The gunman who opened fire at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday night has been identified as Cole Allen of Torrance, Calif. — with President Trump calling him a likely “lone wolf whack job” who “looked pretty evil.”
The 31-year-old, identified by federal law enforcement sources, was arrested after allegedly entering the Washington Hilton hotel and charging toward the ballroom where Trump and roughly 2,500 guests had assembled.

Carney has promised regular trade updates. Why is YouTube his platform of choice?
Prime Minister Mark Carney has promised regular updates on his government’s efforts as Canada continues to work through a U.S. trade war while also seeking to strengthen relationships with other trading partners — and his medium of choice appears to be YouTube.
“I promise you, I will never sugarcoat our challenges,” Carney said in a video posted April 19 and titled Forward Guidance. “Instead, I’ll talk with you directly and regularly about our plan — why we’re doing what we’re doing, what’s working, what isn’t, and what we’re going to do next.”
CBC has much praise for their Great Communicator the one who knows Youtube vids garner larger audiences than the Ceeb.
WTF?

WTF?
The nuisance Brampton protesters pressured Doug Ford about extending their work permits.
His response? "These hard-working people are here to contribute to the community and have been trained in certain areas and I can tell you that your employers want you to stay."

WAGNER: Canadian interference in the 2024 US election
What counts as “foreign interference?”
In January, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an interview that “Alberta has a wealth of natural resources, but they won’t let them build a pipeline to the Pacific,” in this case, “they” being the federal government.
Referring to Alberta, he went on to say, “I think we should let them come down into the US, and Alberta is a natural partner for the US. They have great resources. The Albertans are very independent people.”
European Politics in Deep Sleep
With the Hormuz crisis, another element falls into place in the mosaic of the new world order. This order is dominated by the titanic struggle between the U.S. and China, manifesting in commodity and energy markets. That Europe has slept through this transformation is a sign of blatant reality denial.
We are currently receiving conflicting reports from the Strait of Hormuz — that strategic chokepoint where global geopolitical weather is shaped like nowhere else. Sometimes a Greek tanker passes through, sometimes a French one. Most often, tankers destined for India or China navigate without incident.
Defense for Chinese National in U.S. Fentanyl Case Proposes Testimony From China-Based Witness
TEXAS – A landmark U.S. fentanyl-trafficking prosecution that investigators say reaches from Texas and Mexico into China’s chemical supply chains has taken a new turn, with defense lawyers for accused broker Minsu “Fernando” Fang asking a federal judge to authorize the deposition of a witness in Shenzhen, China, whom they claim can provide exculpatory evidence.
In search of the lost continent of Mu, Asia’s answer to Atlantis
Forty years ago this spring, Kihachiro Aratake was diving in the warm seas off southwest Japan when he started trembling. He was a diving instructor looking for promising new sites to take tourists, and there in the waters off the southern coast of Yonaguni, a small and remote island close to Taiwan, he came upon something awe inspiring.
“Back in those days the sea was so very clear,” he says, “and looking down I felt I was looking down on Machu Picchu.” On the seabed he found a vast rock edifice of drastically straight lines and sharp angles, like the wall and terraces of the ancient Inca city. “I was so amazed — I had never seen anything like that before.”
Authorities In Britain Are Trying To Criminalize Christian Street Preaching
A church in Britain is facing criminal charges for preaching Christianity in public. The United Kingdom has made a habit in recent years of criminalizing Christian preaching and prayer on public streets (including silent prayer near abortion clinics), but this might be the first time the authorities have targeted an entire church and not just an individual.
That gang rape in Brighton confirms it – Britain is broken
They’re laughing at us. That’s what I thought when I saw that rictus, gap-toothed smirk on the face of one of the illegal immigrants who’d just been found guilty in a most abominable case of rape. There he was leaving court, having been convicted of assisting in the savage sexual assault of a woman on a public beach, and he was grinning. If I had to translate his leer, I’d say he was saying that our women, our courts and our country don’t count for shit. ‘You’re worthless’ was the subtext of his diabolical sneer.
Racial discrimination factors into reducing sentence for double shooting in Porsche
An Ontario judge whittled 13 months off a 14-year sentence for a man who shot two people due to the Muslim shooter’s youth, racial discrimination he experienced growing up in Toronto, and harsh pretrial jail conditions.
A jury in Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice convicted Yousaf Bilal Sheikh, 24, on two counts of attempted murder for shooting Mallory Walia and Ameen Jazei inside a white Porsche while he was in the front passenger seat on the evening of Nov. 29, 2022.
