The mother of the teenager murdered by Christa Pike said she believes she is owed an apology following this week’s botched execution in Tennessee.
Wednesday’s execution attempt came 30 years after Pike was sentenced to death for the 1995 murder of 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer.
Pike, 50, the only woman on Tennessee’s death row, is in critical condition at a hospital, unconscious and on a ventilator, after her execution failed despite two lethal injections, her attorneys said Friday.
The U.S. Coast Guard has searched roughly 2,840 square miles (roughly 7,355 square kilometres) for six people aboard an Ontario-based air ambulance that went missing over the Atlantic, as crews continue to search the area where debris was found over the weekend.
The Gulfstream G100, operated by Hamilton, Ont.-based Latitude Air Ambulance, was carrying four Canadians and two Bermuda nationals when it disappeared early Saturday while flying from Bermuda to Boston.
For years, the goblin architects of globo-homo race communism have labored tirelessly behind the scenes, in the shadows where they prefer to operate, to push through a so-called “global pandemic treaty” that would standardize the international response to the impending, much-hyped (probably man-made) pandemic, thereby subverting any national sovereignty that would allow room for individualized decision-making by nation-states.
No Canadians have been elected to the International Ice Hockey Federation’s council, a surprising result for a nation considered one of the sport’s powerhouses.
Hockey Canada president and chief executive officer Katherine Henderson was up for one of the minimum three female spots on council at Friday’s election at the IIHF’s semi-annual congress in Tenerife, Spain.
Henderson was eliminated in the second of three rounds of voting. Hungary’s Zsuzsanna Kolbenheyer, Turkiye’s Merve Tunali and Poland’s Marta Zawadzka won the council seats.
Canada is not being invited to a lot of parties of late.
There’s been one thing in particular that has been intriguing New Yorkers this summer: the existence, and whereabouts, of so-called “mole people” – a mysterious group of individuals who spend at least some of their time wading about in the city’s sewers.
New Yorkers learned a bit more about the phenomenon this week, when two men were caught red – or perhaps another color – handed, after allegedly emerging from a tunnel in Manhattan. Their arrests have shed some light on a slew of instances where people have been witnessed lifting manhole covers and clambering underground.
A church in Canada has come under fire for hosting a hot potato night, in which congregants attending can enjoy a baked potato, that focuses on educating attendees about the country’s government-assisted suicide, know as Medical Assistance in Dying

Columbia, Md. (AP) — In the shadow of Washington, D.C., Bruce Springsteen and a few musical giants had a message for the world: “Let them hear you in Washington,” he cheered.
The Boss played a number of political songs during his headlining set at the inaugural “Power to the People” star-studded protest festival at Columbia, Maryland’s Merriweather Post Pavilion on Saturday. Organized by Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, the festival aimed to celebrate “peace, justice, solidarity, music and community action,” according to its mission statement, and promote voter turnout.

How does Prime Minister Mark Carney’s support for the new Pacific Link Pipeline fit in with a decade of warnings from the Liberal government under Justin Trudeau that fossil fuels pose an “existential threat” to humanity?
A pro-Hamas group that led a riot at the University of Washington still operates despite the United States sanctioning its foreign affiliate as a front for terrorism.
Students United for Palestinian Equality and Return UW, or SUPER UW, called on Seattle locals in a September Instagram post to join an Oct. 7 protest marking three years of Israeli “genocide.” The group openly labels itself an ally of the U.S.-designated terrorist group Masar Badil and its youth branch, according to posts documented in a Friday report by George Washington University.
Prime Minister Mark Carney admitted last week that he has prepared for a once-unthinkable scenario – a US invasion.
Noting the risk was low and the likelihood highly improbable, he told the New York Times he had a responsibility to consider all possibilities as the US-Canada relationship is redefined under the Donald Trump presidency.
“That’s just risk management,” Carney said.
LONDON—The Bayeux Tapestry, Britain’s most hallowed piece of cloth, is back in England for the first time in about 1,000 years.
So why is everybody so mad?
Brits who want to see the 11th-century relic say they’re being treated like Taylor Swift fans on Ticketmaster while American tech billionaires, luxury hotel guests and museum sponsors get to skip the line.
“That’s not what this is all about. The Bayeux Tapestry should be for everyone,” said Sasha Mills, 25.
Thank God we invented Television.
My eldest son landed in Paris on Thursday to begin a year teaching English there, just as the capital was gripped by student riots.
“The first thing I saw was a massive fire in the middle of the street,” James said, adding that rioters were shooting fireworks at police.
France is burning. The spark was the student protest over high school conditions but the tinder is broad dissatisfaction on the left with the political status quo, not to mention fears over the prospect of a far right government next year.
I guess the far-right guy is the one with the peaceful aerosol can flame thrower.
Notice how those who are telling you that burning a bystander’s face constitutes protesting against insufficient funding for schools are also repeatedly scaremongering about the rise of the ‘far right’ in Europe. pic.twitter.com/QMm3GGnd4v

15 year old Gift Giver arrested
French police have arrested a 15-year-old rioter after he used a makeshift flame-thrower to burn a woman’s face.
The attack was captured on video as thousands of youngsters went on the rampage over poor conditions in their schools.
“Monty Python” legend John Cleese is doubling down on his months-long string of incendiary posts about Islam after activists filed a complaint that asked Britain’s counter-radicalization program to scrutinize him over the missives.
“How exciting,” the 86-year-old comedian wrote after learning that a member of the public had referred him to Prevent, a British government program designed to intervene when authorities believe someone may be vulnerable to radicalization or becoming involved in terrorism.
A permissive Canadian city is so full of drugs that even its birds have been seen getting high on the streets.
Crows in Prince George, British Columbia have been finding opioids left over by addicts in the crime-ridden city.
The city decriminalized possession of drugs in a disastrous woke 2023 pilot program which it chose not to renew in early 2026 – but the consequences continue to be felt locally.
Small-boat migrants have been given more than 1,000 free hijabs on the British taxpayer this year, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Internal government figures show that officials have been handing over Muslim head coverings to those illegally landing on our shores at a rate of 162 a month.
On Saturday, the Conservatives said it was ‘an insult to hard-working British taxpayers’ to dish out hijabs to those ‘breaking into our country’ – although the Home Office insisted it had a legal duty to provide them.
