The government shouldn’t do things it isn’t good at because resources get wasted and problems don’t get solved.
The federal government is not good at banning and confiscating firearms. It costs too much. And police say it won’t make Canadians safer.
Syria Is Indoctrinating a New Generation of Terrorists
In August, the Trump Administration removed Syria from its list of state sponsors of terrorism. It had also previously lifted sanctions “to create a new relationship between the United States and Syria.”
“These actions were all taken in recognition of the positive actions taken and further commitments by the Syrian government under President Ahmed al-Sharaa to fully distance Syria from acts of international terrorism,” U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said at the time.
Housing alone not viable solution for homeless addicts
After back-to-back elections — one in British Columbia and one in Toronto —in which mental illness, drug addiction and homelessness featured prominently, the results may well mark another turning point in how this national crisis is addressed, even though B.C. turned its back on NDP-style governance and Toronto embraced it.
Within the platoon of Toronto councillors now tasked with running the city, there are signs that the unabashed loyalty to injection sites and harm reduction that have been the hallmark of the past decade at city hall is finally fading.
Handing the house keys to addicts sounds like a miracle solution!

Sunny Hostin Insists Slaves ‘Emancipated Themselves,’ Without Lincoln
ABC News co-host Sunny Hostin celebrated Veteran’s Day on Wednesday with a massive dose of racism and some serious revisionist history. Despite speaking on a purported “bona fide news program,” The View co-host claimed President Abraham Lincoln didn’t emancipate anyone and the Union didn’t free the slaves. She insisted the slaves did it all “themselves.” Further proving her ignorance, she would later falsely suggest the Electoral College played a role in Senate elections.
Flights grounded across US due to air traffic control ‘communication issue’
US DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin is speaking to reporters at the White House. He says there is no indication this was an attack against the United States.
“This is a telecommunications outage,” he says.
“All the flights are accounted for,” he says.
🚨🇺🇸 DHS Secretary Mullin on whether the Microsoft outage and FAA outages are related:
“I don’t see any reason to connect those two at all. Those are separate issues.”
Well, there are several issues, and no one seems to have any answers. Does anyone know what is going on in the U.S. right now?

BREAKING: In an extraordinary move made only one other time since 9/11, the FAA orders ALL flights nationwide grounded, bringing departures across the U.S. to a halt.
The Federal Aviation Administration is directing all departing aircraft to remain on the ground until further notice, citing safety concerns.
International flights arriving in the U.S. will be handled on a case-by-case basis as questions mount over what triggered the sweeping order.
The FAA has not publicly detailed the cause of the emergency action.

Microsoft 365 outage still without ‘full mitigation’ after nearly 24 hours
Nearly 24 hours after a Microsoft 365 outage knocked out services for users across the world, the tech giant says email queues were “approaching normal levels” but it is still working on a “full mitigation” of the problem.
Outlook has been working for me since the early AM but I am not going to conduct any serious business until I see if it lasts.
A Military Isn’t Much Good When Soldiers Are ‘Scared They Might Have to Shoot Somebody’
The British have a number of real problems with their armed forces. We’ve gone over quite a few of them here.
There’s the pitiable plight of the Navy, once the world’s most dominant, giving rise to the immortal phrase, Britannia Rules the Waves.
Mike Myers says he wants Wayne Gretzky to ‘come back’ to Canada: ‘I just don’t agree with his politics’
Mike Myers isn’t afraid to call out Wayne Gretzky’s political views.
The Canadian actor was the first guest on “MADE / unmade,” a new podcast that premiered on Thursday and is hosted by George Stroumboulopoulos. While the Austin Powers star opened up about everything from his career to finding his political voice, he was quick to clarify that he and the former NHL player have opposing political beliefs.
I bet Mikey loves the vibrant diversity when he slums in TO.
Ilhan Omar Is in Real Trouble, and She Knows It
Things are getting spicy in D.C., and I am not referring to all the backbiting in the Democrat and Republican caucuses, the Congressional investigations that will plague us for the next two years…at least…or even the sex scandals that will inevitably leak out as they always do when there isn’t other news to cover.
CHARLEBOIS: Ottawa’s multi-billion food strategy comes with an asterisk
You have to give Ottawa credit for creativity.
In Budget 2025, last year, it introduced a framework that separates day-to-day operating spending from capital investment. In Budget 2026, Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne can point to a projected $11.2-billion operating surplus in 2027–28. In that very same year, Ottawa projects an overall deficit of $62.5 billion. Both figures come from the same budget. When Canadians hear that Ottawa is on track to balance its books, they deserve to hear both numbers.
Nolte: Trans Characters Will Finally Disappear from TV Next Season
There were seven trans characters during the 2025-2026 television season. None of them will be returning. The far-left fascists at GLAAD report this as a bad thing.
The groomers at GLAAD are also upset no gay characters appeared in last year’s animated and family films.
‘Demoralizing:’ Toronto doctor calls current volume of patients at some local ERs ‘out of control’
An emergency room physician who works at three Toronto hospitals is raising alarm bells over the capacity of some ERs in the city, calling the volume of patients “insane, out-of-control, explosive, never seen before, [and] record-breaking.”
Dr. Raghu Venugopal has worked in emergency rooms for 19 years and said if you ask any ER doctor right now, they would say the current situation concerning.
The number one issue, Venugopal suggested, is that people don’t have other access treatment.
144 Nations Back Iran at the UN. Kick the UN Out of America.
The Trump administration should kick the United Nations out of America. They never end wars or prevent tragedies, all the UN members seem to do is bash Jews and Americans, reward terrorists and dictators, and justify egregious crimes.
LILLEY: Stellantis Brampton plant the cost of Mark Carney’s trade war politics
If the Carney government truly wanted to save the Stellantis plant in Brampton, it would be spending more time focused on Washington, D.C.
Canada’s entire auto industry relies on access to the American market, and for nearly two years that access has been in doubt.
