The secret, never-before-used CIA tool that helped find airman downed in Iran: ‘If your heart is beating, we will find you’

WASHINGTON — The CIA used a futuristic new tool called “Ghost Murmur” to find and rescue the second American airman who was shot down in southern Iran, The Post has learned.

The secret technology uses long-range quantum magnetometry to find the electromagnetic fingerprint of a human heartbeat and pairs the data with artificial intelligence software to isolate the signature from background noise, two sources close to the breakthrough said.

Canada’s Wonderland reopens with new chaperone policy

… This season, Canada’s Wonderland is also implementing a chaperone policy beginning May 1, which seems to be a deterrent for having any issues with young teens at the park.

As of 4 p.m. daily, all guests ages 15 years old or younger must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old in order to be admitted or to remain in the park.

Conservatives call for ethics probe of Frankie Champers as questions raised over high-speed rail

Conservatives call for ethics probe of Frankie Champers as questions raised over high-speed rail

The Conservative Party is calling on the House of Commons ethics watchdog to launch an investigation into whether Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne breached ethics rules regarding his partner’s involvement in a federal government-funded high speed rail project.

In a letter to Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner Konrad von Finckenstein, Conservative ethics critic Michael Barrett made the case for an investigation, pointing out that the company heading the project, Alto, is to receive millions of dollars in funding from the budget that Champagne introduced last fall and has defended in both the House of Commons and committee.

DR Congo Signs Deportation Deal with U.S.

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has announced it will temporarily accept foreigners deported from the United States under an agreement with Washington. The deal also aligns with U.S. interests in accessing Congolese mineral resources.

According to government sources, the number of deportees to be received remains unclear, and Kinshasa has not disclosed the specific terms offered by the Trump administration in exchange for its participation.

Federal government polled Canadians on housing slogans as shortage worsened

Federal government polled Canadians on housing slogans as shortage worsened

CALGARY — Cabinet turned to marketing experts and focus groups to test slogans and logos as Canada’s housing shortage worsened, according to internal records that raise fresh questions about priorities in addressing affordability.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the Privy Council Office commissioned nationwide focus groups to gauge which branding concepts would best convince Canadians the government had a plan to fix the crisis.

I bet “Blame it on Trump” was touted as a favourite to win.

First Nation asks court to block Alberta referendum on seceding from Canada

First Nation asks court to block Alberta referendum on seceding from Canada

A First Nation in Alberta has said that a separatist push for the province to secede from Canada is “consummately irresponsible and dishonourable” and should be shut down, arguing in court that a proposed referendum would violate their treaty rights.

A minority of residents of the oil-rich province have long argued that the province’s woes are due to the structure of payments to the federal government and a perceived inability to get their vast fossil fuel reserves to market.

In recent months, separatists have seized on the sentiment and collected nearly 180,000 signatures to request a referendum. But the Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation, near Edmonton, has asked a court to halt the campaign.

Europe On The Verge Of Surrender To Islam

Europe On The Verge Of Surrender To Islam

Explaining the decline of the Roman Empire in The Story of Civilization, Will Durant wrote: “A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself within.” The same could become true of the European Union (EU) in the 21st century. Postmodern illusions of a benign and righteous multiculturalism are allowing Islamist ideology—which has no reservations about its supremacist ambitions—to spread its roots with unprecedented virulence.

Political attacks on Canadian judges must stop

Political attacks on Canadian judges must stop

Increasingly, politicians across the country are taking aim at judges. This is a dangerous trend that has crept across the border from Trump’s America. It should concern all Canadians because it threatens to erode respect for the rule of law in this country.

I’ve been following such events for three decades and I cannot remember a time when attacks on judges were so frequent and faced such little blowback.

Canada’s courts have come to resemble an insane asylum run by the inmates.

The shameful silence over Nigeria’s Palm Sunday massacre

The shameful silence over Nigeria’s Palm Sunday massacre

For Christians around the world, Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, in commemoration of the entrance of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem.

On Palm Sunday this year, on Saturday 29 March, Christians in the city of Jos in northern Nigeria’s Plateau State saw AK-wielding jihadists enter their city on motorbike. Dozens were then slaughtered. One local leader told me of the pain of praying with a single mother whose 17-year-old son was murdered. Another woman was pregnant when she was shot dead.

Jesse Kline: Like the NDP, public grocery stores are always a miserable failure

From Air Canada to the CBC to Petro-Canada, this country has a long history of costly government adventures in private enterprise that provide little-to-no-benefit to consumers. But NDP Leader Avi Lewis’s proposal for a network of state-run supermarkets and Toronto city council’s recent vote to green-light a pilot project for four municipal grocery stores shows that Canada is a place where bad ideas never die.

The Architecture of Jihad

The Architecture of Jihad

“I do not write in hypotheticals,” writes Aynaz Anni Cyrus. “My standards are documentary and forensic: names, filings, public statements, organizational ties, court records, financial flows, and observable outcomes.” And it’s true. In her important new book, The Architecture of Jihad: Inside the Ideology, Law, and Global Strategy Driving Islam’s Multi-Front Expansion, Cyrus sets out in clear and precise terms, along with abundant documentation, the many methods modern-day Islamic jihadis are using in order to attain their goals of destroying the Judeo-Christian West and restoring the global caliphate.

John Ivison: Liberals shove Canada into China’s menacing embrace

John Ivison: Liberals shove Canada into China’s menacing embrace

Canada’s finance minister was in Beijing late last week looking to deepen financial sector ties with China. Francois-Philippe Champagne said he was building on the strategic partnership deal signed between Prime Minister Mark Carney and Chinese President Xi Jinping “with eyes wide open.”

A more appropriate ophthalmological analogy would have been to say that Canada will henceforth turn a blind eye to Beijing’s excesses.
