April Wine was inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame earlier this year. Goodwyn was also inducted this year into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame. He told CBC News earlier this year that the latter induction was his proudest...

The security establishment is bracing for imminent military achievements against Hamas, which are expected to weaken the grip of both Sinwar and Mohammed Deif on their ground forces. A senior security official, in a confidential briefing, shared insights on the escalated efforts to locate Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas. The official revealed, "There is a significant intelligence effort underway to track down Sinwar," emphasizing his misjudgment of the IDF's strength and his shock at recent military actions in Shifa. Security forces are now focusing on the southern Gaza Strip, with an expectation that operations in areas like Khan Yunis...

Something eerie, something creepy, is happening in the world—and now in America as well. The dark mood is brought on by elite universities, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion industry, and massive immigration from illiberal nations and anti-Enlightenment societies. At Hillcrest High School in Queens, New York, hundreds of students rioted on news that a single teacher in her private social media account had expressed support for Israel. Waving Palestinian flags, and screaming violent threats, the student mob rioted, destroyed school property, sought the teacher out and tried to crash into her classroom—before she was saved from violence by other teachers...

[Make sure to read Joseph Klein’s contributions in Jamie Glazov’s new book: Barack Obama’s True Legacy: How He Transformed America.]As fighting resumed in Gaza after a seven day pause, a woman draped in a Palestinian flag used gasoline to set herself on fire on December 1st in front of the Israeli consulate in Atlanta. Her performative display of self-destructive protest against Israel was surreal, considering the fact that it was the Hamas terrorists who savagely burned some of their civilian victims alive, including children and babies, on October 7th. This lady, along with the rabid pro-Palestinian protesters chanting “from the...

“I studied the Koran a great deal … I came away from that study with the conviction that by and large there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammad.” — Alexis de TocquevilleDespite the terrible massacre of October 7, many politicians in the West continue to talk about Islam as a “religion of peace.” Respected professors, journalists, columnists, philosophers from Paris to San Francisco share this view. They really want to believe in it; otherwise, the claim that true evil comes from the West only, and the Islamic movement is no more...

Iran’s foreign ministry slammed the US in a series of statements on Monday.

[Make sure to read Robert Spencer’s contributions in Jamie Glazov’s new book: Barack Obama’s True Legacy: How He Transformed America.]The ceasefire charade is over for now, Hamas has had a chance to regroup, and the Israelis are determined now to finish the job and destroy the threat from the bloodthirsty jihad group forever. The Biden regime, however, is telling them to ease up, and let Hamas live to kill more Israeli civilians on another day. In light of the heavy pressure the regime has been receiving from its far-Left base, and its anti-Israel stance from the beginning, this is no...

boat full of suspected illegal immigrants landed on a beach in California near the luxurious homes of several liberal celebrities. Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin posted video of the landing on the X social media. "Video from a contact in Malibu shows a panga boat full of suspected illegal immigrants landing on a beach near his home this week," Melugin wrote. "Incredibly rare to see this so far north, as Malibu is 100+ miles away from the border. Unclear if anyone caught, awaiting a CBP response." Melugin also noted that there was a sunken panga boat in the same...

A Toronto-based power corporation says it's halting its proposal for a battery storage facility in an eastern Ontario township after facing intense local pushback — including someone uttering a death threat during an open house. The mayor of the Township of Elizabethtown-Kitley, meanwhile, says that while the Ontario Provincial Police were called to the meeting — and he regrets how it went down — Baseload Power Corp. ultimately failed to gain traction because it did not consult widely or early enough. "Don't leave it until the last minute," said Mayor Brant Burrow of how the company handled its pitch. In...

Under the ideology of cultural Marxism and the framework of Marxist “Woke” ideologies, power must be taken from a majority population. Firearms, as noted by the Marxist and Chinese mass murderer Mao, are a form of political power. Mao wrote: Every Communist must grasp the truth: Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.What Mao meant was only the Communist Party should be allowed to have guns. For a Marxist revolution to succeed, the people must be disarmed. The left in the United States has long pushed for the disarmament of the population. Recently, the left has primarily...

Henry Kissinger, who died on Wednesday night at the age of 100, was the most enduringly influential secretary of state in the history of the United States. He was also the most controversial. But the influence matters far more than the controversy. His critics have wasted no time in ignoring the old injunction that no ill should be spoken of the recently deceased. The scurrilous magazine Rolling Stone led with the repulsive headline 'Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America's Ruling Class, Finally Dies'. At a time when anti-Semitism has again reared its ugly head in the wake of the...

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) was slammed by both Democrats and Republicans Sunday after calling for “balanced” criticism of the Israel-Hamas war when asked about progressives’ alleged silence over Hamas rapes of Israeli women. Jayapal, chair of the progressive caucus, quickly condemned the sexual violence against Israeli women by Hamas militants on Oct. 7 before moving on to note that Israel has killed 15,000 Palestinians — two-thirds of whom are women and children — during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.” CNN host Dana Bash said she has noticed that progressive women have largely remained silent on the horrific...

A pair of back-to-back court victories for TikTok this week have threatened to make it harder for the company’s critics to clamp down on it, after a state judge in Indiana threw out one lawsuit against the popular short-form video app and a federal judge blocked a first-of-its-kind Montana law that would have banned the app statewide. Neither case has reached a final outcome. But the early-stage results in both states show that when the hot-button politics of TikTok came face-to-face with the most fundamental basics of American law, the politics lost. In both cases, efforts to crack down on...
