UK Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood: “On Monday, I will announce the most significant changes to our asylum system in modern times “

I never thought I’d reach the point where I dread an announcement like this from Labour.

I just signed a petition launched by the gender justice nonprofit UltraViolet demanding that SiriusXM drop Megyn Kelly. Kelly's comments minimizing Jeffrey Epstein's abuse of teen girls are reckless and irresponsible. Pedophile apologists should not have a national platform. app.sosha.ai/s/NnKhbSG7

This is a no-brainer, as we say.

The Gripen is the ideal complement to Canadian air power. It creates skilled jobs, allows for customization, and is with a country that shares our values.

We built the Arrow, and it was ahead of its time.

Time for us to shine!

Just heard about this on the radio - fab news!! I know the Isle of Muck well (never set foot on it though as it's closed to the public to protect wildlife).

Muck is from the Gaelic word "muc", which means pig by the way!

Question: What is your favorite Joyce Carol Oates novel?

I’m a long-time fan but I think the outstanding, mesmerizing and immersive FOX from earlier this year is one of her recent best.

The REM is essential infrastructure — an automated light metro system across Greater Montréal that will connect more and more of the city as it grows. 
 
Great cities have great public transit, and that’s what we’re investing to build more of across Canada in Budget 2025.

It’s not about ‘style’ - Poilievre and the Conservatives have horrible policies that will ruin Canada. The idea pushed is that the Conservatives are great and Poilievre is dragging them down.

This is not a serious take on governing Canada in a time of crises.

⁩…no self reflection, no change in talking points, berating journalists & 20 pts behind PM Carney. In the words of Robert Fife…”you’re not getting it!” He has a media problem! #cdnpoli

Trump has destroyed all credibility in government departments. The latest one: the Justice Department classifying fentanyl as a chemical weapon to justify murdering civilians in small boats.

Words mean nothing any more. Neither does authority. We do what we want. Take or leave our excuse.
