    New York -- The US is “deeply concerned” about the allegations raised by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau against India on the killing of a Khalistani separatist in Canada, Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said and Washington was "closely coordinating" with Ottawa on the issue and wants to see "accountability" in the case. Speaking at a press conference here on Friday, Blinken said the US has engaged directly with the Indian government on the issue and the most productive thing would be the completion of this investigation. “Let me say a few things about this. First, we are deeply...

    The trial for the leaders of the so-called Freedom Convoy protest that gridlocked Canada's capital for weeks in 2022 is set to begin on Tuesday. Tamara Lich and Chris Barber each face counts of mischief and obstructing police. The two were part of a group that led a convoy of lorries to Ottawa to protest Covid-19 measures and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government. Experts say the outcome of the trial could reverberate beyond the courts. The main charge that Mr Lich and Mr Barber will have to defend is that of mischief, defined under Canadian law as the wilful destruction,...

    On Friday, hundreds of concerned parents, children, and allies gathered in Ottawa to take part in the Education over Indoctrination protest against LGBTQ content in schools. During the protest, kids from Muslim families fed up with gender indoctrination in their classrooms stomped on Pride flags, garnering cheers from the crowd. Footage from the protest captured the moment the children, seemingly at the direction of their parents, stood atop a selection of small Pride flags scattered on the ground and began stomping. The crowd cheered them on, with some older members coming over to shake their hands and voice their approval.

    The headline in Sunday’s Ottawa Citizen was strange: “‘The ordeal’ is not over for Hassan Diab after French court sentences him to life in prison.” Clearly, the Citizen’s sympathy is with Diab, despite the fact that he must have been convicted of something extremely serious to warrant being given life in prison. And the Citizen is not alone.Hassan Diab is a darling of the Leftist political and media establishment, despite the fact that the crime he was convicted of committing was the bombing of the Rue Copernic synagogue in Paris during Shabbat services on Oct. 3, 1980. Four people were...

    From the White House to 10 Downing Street, political leaders live in some of the world's most iconic official residences. But in Canada, the fate of 24 Sussex Drive, home to the country's prime ministers for more than 70 years, is up in the air after it was allowed to fall into uninhabitable disrepair. The list of problems would turn away even the most ambitious buyer looking for a fixer-upper. The home that has welcomed the world's elite - from John F Kennedy to Princess Diana and Mikhail Gorbachev - now sits empty, a fire trap rife with asbestos, lead,...

    Left-wing activists without children in the school came to intimidate parents who wanted to protect their children against sexualization and gender ideology in schools.On Tuesday, hundreds of people lined up in the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) headquarters parking lot due to public hearings about transgender students using school bathrooms.According to the radicalized left-wing board’s website, “All students have the right to use the washrooms and other facilities they feel most comfortable with. This includes ‘boys,’ ‘girls,’ and all-inclusive facilities.”It and other local boards facing similar criticism have pointed to the Ontario Human Rights Commission and Code to back up...

    VIDEOAs yet more proof that liberals live in a make-believe world of their own fantasies check out this Canadian Liberal MP who fantasizes about weapons in the trucks that lined the streets of Ottawa during the protests there last winter. Although he seems absolutely sure such weapons existed, he gets brutally fact checked by the interim police chief of Ottawa who very very reluctantly admitted that no weapons in those trucks were ever found. However, as you can see, finally getting that answer from that highly evasive police chief was like trying to painfully extract his tooth.

    Canada’s federal government will likely drop its COVID-19 vaccine requirement for people entering Canada at the end of the month, a government source said on Tuesday. The source, who was not authorized to speak on the record, said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was “likely” to drop the vaccination requirement on Sept 30. The Globe and Mail newspaper reported the news earlier on Tuesday. Canada will also drop random coronavirus testing on the same day, and make it optional to use its ArriveCAN app, where travelers have been required to upload their proof of vaccination, the source said. Canadian airports faced...

    Terence Graham has been waiting anxiously for weeks to receive urgent CT scan results after experiencing "noticeable swelling" in the back of his head that gave him "blinding headaches." The 55-year-old Canadian Forces veteran, who lives in Laird, Ont., about 40 kilometres southeast of Sault Ste. Marie, said he was checked out at the local emergency department on July 27. Not only did it take nearly three weeks to get the scan, he says he's since been unable to get the results. The findings of a new Angus Reid Institute poll conducted in Canada and the U.S. in August suggest...

    LifeSiteNews reported on June 29 that Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have made the rare decision to waive cabinet confidentiality and “release the evidence it used to justify invoking the Emergencies Act to crush the Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa earlier this year.”I believe this recent revelation will ultimately lead to Trudeau’s resignation. (snip)Like I said, he will never willingly enter into a battle he does not believe he can win – he is a coward. Therefore, he has two likely ways out.He will call another election and step down as party leader in the process, or he will simply step down...

    Rates of tickets issued per 100,000 residents show that the city's Hasidic Jewish community faced severe curfew enforcement by Montreal police. For five months during Quebec's COVID curfew, Rebel News was out sounding the alarm about the targeted harassment from Montreal police towards the city's Hasidic Jewish population. Organizations that claim to stick up for Jews were silent. The only time the public heard from these so-called Jewish groups was when they decided to condemn Jews for calling a police officer a Nazi as he was harassing Hasidic Jews at a synagogue, targeting them for observing their religious obligations. Well...

    A convoy of motorcycle riders is set to arrive in Ottawa this weekend for a rally on Parliament Hill. Dubbed "Rolling Thunder Ottawa" the convoy plans to loop through downtown Friday and Saturday, though their reasons for the rally are unclear. The event is bound to be a reminder of the downtown protests that paralyzed Ottawa for weeks and inspired similar demonstrations across Canada and around the world over COVID-19 mandates. Police already plan to send in officers to enforce the rally and will prevent vehicles from entering the area surrounding Parliament Hill...

"We constantly consult our experts and whenever the advice we receive changes because the circumstances change, we will change our regulation," he said Tuesday. But for now, it is what it is" His comments came after a federal judge in Florida stuck down a Biden administration requirement that passengers wear face coverings on airliners and mass transit...

    Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal minority government has reached a deal with the New Democratic Party (NDP) to stay in power until 2025. In exchange, the Liberals will support the left-leaning NDP on several of the party's key priorities in parliament. Mr Trudeau said on Tuesday that he believes the agreement will provide "stability" for Canadians. The move has been strongly criticised by Canada's Conservative Party. Speaking at a news conference on Tuesday, Mr Trudeau said that the deal - which he termed a "supply and confidence" agreement - begins today and will continue through the end of Canada's...

    Hollywood celebrities including Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, and Jane Fonda are protesting a Canadian natural gas pipeline that they claim represents a threat to the climate and indigenous rights. Their demand to defund the pipeline comes as energy prices are soaring around the world, putting a squeeze on working class families and sending a dire ripple effect throughout the global economy. The pipeline at the center of the fight is the Coastal GasLink, which transports natural gas across the Canadian Rockies in British Columbia to the Pacific coast.
