The National Association of Christian Lawmakers and its partners asked the administration to direct the State Department and Department of Homeland Security to develop “lawful, secure, and appropriately expedited pathways” for eligible Jewish Canadian nationals and their immediate family members.

U.S. President Donald Trump wasn’t wrong when he said that Canadians got to enjoy all the benefits of U.S. statehood without being one.
Free trade enabled Canada to shelve concerns with innovation or industrial modernization, ship primary materials to the American industrial economy, and live an easy life. Furthermore, knowing that the U.S. would never allow a hostile country to invade Canada, we were also able to slash our defence budget to the bone, offloading our security to the Americans.
It was, perhaps, the highest praise ever offered by one intelligence agency to another – and it was certainly the most British.
As chief of MI6 in 2022, Sir Richard Moore publicly declared that “pound for pound”, the “brilliant” Estonian Foreign Intelligence Service (EFIS) “probably knock us into a cocked hat”.
Kaupo Rosin, the director general of that service, is delighted by the compliment, though he asks with polite bewilderment what this expression about cocked hats could possibly mean.
So Russia is going to attack NATO while consumed by revolution?
As Canada’s trade war with the United States continues, more voices within and outside Alberta are proposing using Western Canada’s resources as leverage in trade negotiations. The federal government can impose export tariffs or even curtail oil and gas exports to pressure the USA. But using Alberta’s oil as a bargaining chip in a trade war would be economically risky and politically explosive.
The problem is that Canada has limited pricing power. The costs would land first on Canadian producers and consumers, and the political memory of the National Energy Program (NEP)—the last time Ottawa tried to conscript Alberta’s energy wealth—is still raw.
The FBI is dropping a categorical hiring ban on applicants who have had sexual encounters with sex workers and will instead consider in a more holistic manner at least some candidates who have engaged in the practice in the past, according to people familiar with the matter.
The move away from an automatic disqualification falls along a continuum of evolving recruitment standards within federal law enforcement and at the buttoned-up bureau, which several years ago relaxed its approach to candidates’ past marijuana use and has drawn more recent concern among some current and former agents about a perceived loosening of recruitment requirements as it seeks to replenish its ranks.
OTTAWA — A frightening scene played out on Tuesday morning, when a parked semi-truck rolled into an excavation site and hit an exposed section of the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline near the Wisconsin-Michigan border.
Drone footage that was widely circulated online showed a thick, white cloud of natural gas spreading from the accident site to a meadow on the other side of a dirt road.
The United States has threatened to oppose Britain’s sovereignty over the Falkland Islands if Andy Burnham does not increase defence spending, The Telegraph can reveal.
The proposal is among measures being drawn up by senior defence officials at the Pentagon as an incentive to hit Nato’s 5 per cent spending pledge.
A senior US official told The Telegraph that Britain was likely to receive “special attention” in Washington’s review of its allies’ commitment to Nato, which will examine whether member nations have credible paths toward the target.
There have been tariffs and countertariffs, negotiations and breakdowns, “Lake America” and an invitation to kiss the Premier of Ontario’s posterior.
Since Prime Minister Mark Carney walked away from an unpalatable trade agreement with the United States, the two countries are again engaged in a tense standoff, and there is little indication about what will happen next.
Cabinet says Canadians will not be forced to use a national digital ID system despite Ottawa spending billions of dollars modernizing online government services and testing digital identification technology.
Blacklock’s Reporter said the government made the assurance in response to Petition E-6961, sponsored by Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis.

What in the world is going on in Canada? Sorry, but this is not the Canada we always associated with hockey and beautiful lakes for fishing. This new version of Canada is hard to understand. Sorry to say it again, but woke is killing the Canadians!
Last week, while vacationing in Lisbon, I found myself striking up a conversation at the hotel bar with a middle-aged couple who spoke English with a distinctly American accent (which is to say, my accent). Call them Frank and Laura. At some point, our small talk turned to that most American of topics: “So, what do you do?” Frank asked. I told them that I’m a magazine editor, and this prompted Laura to reveal that she, too, edits for a living. How wonderful.
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is warning the City of Hamilton and its police service that efforts to prevent a controversial political conference from being held in the city may violate Charter-protected freedom of expression.
Lawyers funded by the Justice Centre sent a warning letter to the city and Hamilton Police Service after Mayor Andrea Horwath and police publicly opposed the Dominion Society of Canada’s DomCon conference, scheduled for Saturday.
Using the Article III system to try Al Qaeda terrorists was a reasonable solution, the trouble is that military tribunal personnel in this century look nothing like the guys who took a smoke break and sentenced Nazi saboteurs to death during WWII. Their ideal is A Few Good Men, they’re liberals if not outright leftists, and they’re far more likely to be on the side of the terrorists than to be on our side.
