MACLEOD: Hypocrisy of Canadian sovereignty — why Alberta gets called traitors for what Quebec does freely
Welcome to January 2026, where the Canadian national pastime has shifted from hockey to the casual branding of fellow citizens as traitors. As federal leaders clutch their pearls in Ottawa this week, BC Premier David Eby has helpfully updated our national dictionary: apparently, when Albertans have a coffee with US State Department officials to discuss their economic future, it isn’t “diplomacy” — it’s a high crime against the Crown.
‘Let me see you dancing now’: Mother of asylum hotel worker stabbed to death by ‘evil’ migrant who then celebrated with friends taunts him in court as he’s jailed for 29 years
The grieving mother of an asylum hotel worker stabbed to death by a small boat migrant taunted him in court today as he was jailed for 29 years.
Deng Chol Majek stabbed Rhiannon Whyte 23 times with a screwdriver as she talked to her best friend on the phone, three months after Majek is believed to have illegally entered the UK on a small boat.
The attack on a train station platform came after the mother-of-one, 27, finished a night shift on October 20 2024 and made the 90-second walk from the Park Inn Hotel in Walsall to the town’s Bescot Stadium station.
Corrections Canada will investigate after federal offender who allegedly violated parole arrested in Toronto homicide
The Correctional Service of Canada has launched an investigation after a federal offender who was out on statutory release was arrested in the murder of a Toronto woman back in December.
First-degree murder charges were laid against Ashton Drysdale on Jan. 24, 2026 in connection with the death of Jolan Kun, a 79-year-old Toronto woman who was found dead in an apartment near St. Clair Avenue West and Rushton Road on Dec. 9, 2025.
Yuan Yi Zhu: Face it, Carney just doesn’t know much about Canada
Mark Carney received worldwide praise for his speech at Davos, in which he threw down the gauntlet against Donald J. Trump’s destructive politics. His speech, a couple days later on Canadian unity at the Plains of Abraham will not receive such international attention, but it is far more revealing of the fundamental flaw of Carney as a politician. For all his intelligence and credentials, Carney simply doesn’t know much about the country he governs.
To Cave On Mass Deportations Is To Cave On Every Other Issue
On Tuesday afternoon, the White House issued a statement on X outlining a deal with Minnesota officials that drives a knife into the back of everyone who showed up to the polls to deliver President Trump a historic victory in 2024. The post explains that the policy going forward will be to target “criminal illegal aliens,” thereby seemingly abandoning the administration’s promise to conduct mass deportations of as many illegal aliens as possible.
“Finished high explosives” seized at London home after UWO trespassing; four Mandarin-speaking suspects charged
LONDON, ONT. — Four Mandarin-speaking suspects are facing charges related to the unlawful possession of explosives following a weekend incident that began with a trespassing call at Western University’s engineering buildings and led police to a nearby residence containing what court documents describe as “numerous precursor substances and finished high explosives.”
Why do the media ignore the violent intent of Minneapolis activists?
THE awful deaths of Renée Nicole Good and Alex Jeffrey Pretti in Minneapolis have provoked national outrage, protests, celebrity attention, and global media coverage. In much of the US and UK press, both were quickly portrayed as heroes, allegedly ‘murdered’ or ‘executed’ by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents.
Yet video footage, witness statements and official reports suggest a far more complicated picture.
Carney definition of ‘capital’ recognized by nobody else on earth, says budget watchdog
In their pursuit of a budget that prioritizes “capital spending,” the Liberals have adopted a definition of “capital” recognized by no other advanced economy on earth.
This was according to recent testimony by Jason Jacques, Canada’s interim Parliamentary Budget Officer.
Things Fall Apart; The Center Cannot Hold
Yesterday, I wrote about toxic empathy posing a dire threat to Western society. What makes this kind of empathy “toxic” is not that it is empathy, which is a characteristic that is necessary for the formation of a conscience, but rather that it is selective and, in many cases, unlimited.
People identified as deserving of empathy get infinite forgiveness for the most egregious actions, while those seen as “oppressors” deserve none at all and, in fact, should be punished and silenced for objecting to demands they submit to the will of the “oppressed.” It’s all based on an ever-changing and immensely complicated intersectional ladder of oppression, where points are assigned for various degrees of victimhood.
Ottawa hires hundreds of foreign students as Canadian youth unemployment climbs
Federal departments hired nearly 900 foreign students in a single year despite official warnings that Canadian students are struggling to find work and facing rising unemployment.
Blacklock’s Reporter says records tabled in Parliament show the federal government employed 889 foreign students in 2024, the most recent year with complete data, even as the Treasury Board acknowledged Ottawa is supposed to prioritize Canadians.
Records show feds hired 889 foreign students a year while lamenting high jobless rates for Canadian students. @TBS_Canada noted federal employers were supposed to hire Canadians first.https://t.co/Z6MA9oLp9Y@ESDC_GC @CitImmCanada @VincentHo #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/Tqrq7y1a8s

If this doesn’t make you despise the Liberal Party nothing will.
I do ‘exorcisms’ for the Church of England. I’ve seen enough to believe ghosts may be real
When people hear about my job, they assume I burst into people’s houses like the exorcist from the film. That couldn’t be further from the truth. It’s not dramatic. I’m much more likely to turn up and say, “Hi, I’m Jason – I’ve been sent to sort the leak in the temporal timeframe, if you could just show me where it is.” Like a gas engineer, but for paranormal activity.
As well as being an Anglican priest and the dean of Llandaff Cathedral in Cardiff, I am a “deliverance minister” dealing with poltergeist activity, houses that are “haunted” and things that go bump in the night, as well as people who believe they are possessed. There are some misconceptions about how the Anglican Church deals with the supernatural. The fact that every diocese in England and Wales has a team of people like me shows that the Church is more open to these things than people assume. In my diocese, we deal with about a dozen incidents a year. Despite what people often think, it’s no worse on Halloween.
Is this the end of the beginning of the MAGA movement?
The new narrative about U.S. politics is that this is the week when the tide finally turned against U.S. President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.
It’s certainly not the end of MAGA, not even the beginning of the end. But, with apologies to Winston Churchill, perhaps it’s at least the end of the beginning in the long-awaited pushback against the authoritarianism (or worse) that has run wild in the United States for the past year.
Those of us still holding out hope that America may pull itself back from the brink of total disaster desperately want to believe this is true. But is it?
It’s the Star so hoping this is the end of border security and laws is entirely reasonable.
French Crime Breaks New Records
France is plunging into a spiral of violence that is unique in Europe.
Following the release of immigration figures for 2025, the French Interior Ministry has published crime statistics for the past year. These figures dramatically coincide with the French people’s perception that they are living in an increasingly dangerous and violent country. Furthermore, cross-referencing this data with immigration figures confirms another intuitive observation: foreigners are over-represented in crimes of all kinds.
France is circling the toilet
At a local McDonald’s in France, a North African migrant shows up with a notice demanding that they start selling halal.
He threatens the establishment: “It’s the law. If you don’t comply with halal requirements, I will sue you and have you closed!”
The entitlement! pic.twitter.com/RqMlNPMW7T
