How full of itself does a government have to be to call its annual budget “Masters of our destiny”? Seriously.
Not only is it hilariously close to the famous “Master of My Domain” Seinfeld episode titled “The Contest” – Google it if you don’t get the reference – it’s a telling example of premature self-congratulation by Prime Minister Mark Carney and Company.
The US has announced a reward of up to $20 million for information about Iran’s nuclear programme.
The State Department’s Rewards for Justice is also offering to potentially relocate the person who provides such details.
President Donald Trump claimed last year that Iran’s nuclear facilities had been “completely and totally obliterated” following a bombing campaign by the US and Israel.
The Democrats’ sweeping victories in the U.S. midterm elections may have changed the political landscape south of the border, but they haven’t convinced many Windsor residents to put their elbows down and start visiting the United States again.
Despite renewed optimism about the future of Canada-U.S. relations, some residents told CBC in interviews Thursday and Friday that they need to see meaningful changes in Washington before they’ll feel comfortable spending their money across the border.
Ukraine has spooked Russian forces by staging a mass attack by ground robots on the frontline.
Reports said the attacks were the ‘largest visually recorded clash involving ground robots of the entire war’.
The attempted advance involved 28 unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) from Ukraine’s 3rd Army Corps against positions held by the Russian Armed Forces’ 20th Combined Arms Army in the vicinity of Lyman, Donetsk region.
Russian Z-channels are reporting a recent battle involving 28 Ukrainian UGVs that took part in an offensive several days ago, sharing footage of the engagement.
According to the Z-channels, the attack was repelled by Russian drone operators, and they describe the engagement as "the largest visually documented battle involving ground robots since the start of the war."
The Z-channels emphasize that, for the first time, Ukrainian forces attempted an offensive without infantry support, deploying only 28 UGVs (a robotic platoon).
According to their reports, the attacking force consisted of two platforms equipped with automatic grenade launchers, 18 UGVs armed with handheld grenade launchers, and eight kamikaze UGVs.

Manitoba NDP MLA Billie Cross landed herself in hot water during a debate over protections for property owners by citing advice given to retail workers: “they want to steal, let them steal.”
Speaking during an Oct. 29 debate on Bill 210, Cross argued that property was replaceable and insurance existed, making confrontation over theft an unnecessary risk. The bill concerns civil lawsuits by criminal trespassers against people who own or control property; it would not change the Criminal Code rules governing self-defence.
A Russian spymaster claimed he had helped to bring down an Austrian chancellor, according to documents obtained by The Telegraph.
Jan Marsalek, the fugitive former Wirecard executive, said he had been involved in an operation that had “successfully toppled” Sebastian Kurz, who stepped down amid allegations of corruption in 2021.
The messages, detailed in secret investigation files seen by The Telegraph, were sent to Orlin Roussev, his spy ringleader, who has since been jailed in Britain for espionage.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is spending billions over budget, borrowing tens of billions more and offering taxpayers no plan to stop.
Budget 2026 shows government spending is spiralling out of control, sending the federal debt higher.
Paraguay’s rightwing president has been placed under house arrest minutes after he was impeached by Congress, amid a severe crisis that left more than half the country’s population unable to access their bank accounts.
Santiago Peña is being investigated about allegations he used his political influence to favour a bank that expanded exponentially under his government and was suspended this week after irregularities.
The move froze the accounts of 2.9 million people, about 60% of the country’s adult population, who were customers of the bank – Ueno – and who overnight could no longer use their own money even for basic purchases such as bread and water.
Trudeau’s wet dream.
The military hasn’t determined whether a Cyclone that chopped itself up while landing on a frigate last month is salvageable, nor has it made a decision to ditch the troubled helicopter fleet.
Cyclone CH148813 sustained serious damage Oct. 6 during a night landing aboard HMCS Ville de Québec in the Norwegian Sea. As it was touching down, two of the maritime helicopter’s main rotor blades struck its own tail boom, severing multiple components. The four-person crew conducted an emergency engine shutdown and got out safely.

In the eve of an election that threatened to upend his presidency, Donald Trump went to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, where he had overseen a multimillion-dollar renovation that went awry when its new coating peeled and algae turned the water green. Aides hoped the President would focus on the concerns weighing on ordinary Americans: soaring gas prices, expensive groceries, a new war in the Middle East. Instead, Trump spent much of his 53-minute speech talking about construction projects rather than the struggles of the nation he had been elected to serve.
Trump a lame duck? Not gonna happen.
Iain M. Banks imagined a civilization where abundance made ideological conformity unnecessary. Artificial intelligence could bring us closer to that possibility than most people realize.
Imagine a civilization where nobody has to convince anybody else how society should work.
Not because everyone agrees. Not because politics has disappeared. But because disagreement no longer requires a winner and a loser.
David Coletto – Building off my long read on Serbia, students, and generational politics, I recently joined Max Fawcett from Canada’s National Observer on Power Lines for a wide-ranging conversation about some of the forces reshaping politics in Canada and around the world.
A Canadian Generational Political Revolt will be a foreign orchestrated ultra-left pantomime.
