Carney extends employment periods for temporary foreign workers to help out his corporate welfare pals

OTTAWA — The federal government is extending the period of time a business can employ a low-wage temporary foreign worker.

The change will lengthen the maximum duration of a low-wage Labour Market Impact Assessment — the document an employer needs in order to employ a temporary foreign worker — to two years instead of one.

The government said restrictions on hiring temporary foreign workers in cities with unemployment rates above six per cent will remain in place. But Ottawa is adding early childhood educators to the list of professions exempted from those restrictions — a list which also includes certain jobs in health care, construction and food processing.

What Really Lost the US Mid-Term Election? President Trump’s Failure to Win Iran’s 47-Year War

What Really Lost the US Mid-Term Election? President Trump’s Failure to Win Iran’s 47-Year War

The October 26, 2026 meeting in Tehran between senior officials from Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan exposed one of the biggest burlesques in the Middle East’s emerging security arrangements: countries seeking protection against Iranian aggression are simultaneously negotiating with the Iranian regime about regional security. They seem to imagine that they are hedging their bets.

The act of war itself cost Trump in the midterms.

Furious woke mob turns on SNL after Colin Jost’s unorthodox Islamic joke about Abdul El-Sayed and Barack Obama

Saturday Night Live’s liberal viewers turned on the show after cast member Colin Jost made a joke some perceived as ‘Islamophobic.’

How one Project South officer’s case became a referendum on how harshly we should treat unlawful database searches

How one Project South officer’s case became a referendum on how harshly we should treat unlawful database searches

As Elias Mouawad sat before the judge deciding his fate, his lawyer argued the rookie Toronto officer’s case would normally never even see the inside of a courtroom.

Were it not for the fact that he had been folded into the explosive police corruption probe Project South, the 25-year-old constable would be where most officers who leak confidential police database information end up, Peter Brauti argued earlier this fall. He’d be at the police disciplinary tribunal.

There, Mouawad’s misdeed usually results in docked pay.


Illicit access was always a problem, diversity will magnify it.

Doug Ford says parents of youth who allegedly attacked Air Cadets supervisor ‘should be ashamed’

Ontario Premier Doug Ford is speaking out about the assault of an Air Cadets supervisor in Hamilton earlier this month, calling it “the most disgusting thing you could ever do.”

The 59-year-old Canadian Armed Forces member, identified by family as Kenneth Kunkel, was supervising the distribution of poppies on Nov. 1 when two youths allegedly approached his cadets in front of a restaurant at The Centre on Barton and “blew a loud air horn” into their ears.


Sure hope they’re not the migrants Doug loves.

Why not a day against “The Left and antisemitism?

Why not a day against  “The Left and antisemitism?

Troubling: Poll finds small minority of Canadians believe all Jews responsible for Israel’s actions

A new poll has found a strong majority of Canadians respect and trust their Jewish neighbours, but a small minority feels differently because they believe Jews have a collective responsibility for Israel’s actions.

… The poll analyzed responses from 1,232 Canadians aged 18 and over between Oct. 9 and 15.

It was released today to mark International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism. On the evening of Nov. 9, 1938, a series of antisemitic riots took place in Nazi Germany. Homes belonging to Jewish families, Jewish businesses and synagogues were targeted and vandalized. Jewish people were attacked. It became known as Kristallnacht, or Night of Broken Glass.


Fascism is anyone with an opinion the Left disagrees with.

Personally I have not noticed many of the media’s “Fascists” marching through our streets and threatening Jews these past few years.

I’ve seen lot’s of leftists and Muslims however but somehow that gets left out of the media’s preferred narrative.

Corporate titans got white glove World Cup service: City emails

Corporate giants got special treatment during the World Cup, as the Bank of Montreal bought up a big chunk of Toronto’s guest list for last December’s match draw event in Washington, D.C.

Google, meanwhile, bought a suite from city hall for the soccer tournament — but in an “exception,” it instead paid Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, which operates the stadium.

Ottawa gave its failing financial crimes watchdog a spanking. That’s not enough

Minister of Finance François-Philippe Champagne declared early last week that “fraud and money laundering are serious crimes that harm Canadians.” He went on to say that the federal government is “taking bold action against these threats” by introducing tougher anti-financial crime legislation, Bill S-8.

Mr. Champagne is accountable for the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada, or FinTRAC, the country’s financial intelligence unit that helps enforce anti-money laundering and financial crime laws across thousands of businesses, including Canada’s chartered banks.


Carney has a lot of friends.

Inside the French drug gangs recruiting children to kill

Inside the French drug gangs recruiting children to kill

Although she had just bought hashish from a drug dealer, the woman decided to call the police.

It was because, along with the illegal drugs, she had been handed a note by the young seller during their brief meeting on a Marseille housing estate in 2022.

“We’re being held captive and need help. We are 15-years-old,” it read.

The teenage dealer, a French court heard earlier this year, was one of two boys being held by a gang which they had both initially approached looking for paid work – albeit illegal.

One boy had been tasked with handling money, the other worked streets around the Frais-Vallon estate. Soon though, bosses had accused them of being responsible for “shortfalls” in takings.


What percent of the population of Marseilles France are Muslims?

Around 30–35%, with a commonly cited recent estimate of roughly one-third (about 34%).
