Canada Has Reopened Military Channel to Beijing After Eight Years, China’s Defense Ministry Announces

Canada’s military reopened a formal channel to China’s People’s Liberation Army last Friday for the first time in eight years, and Canadians have learned of it only from Beijing.

China’s defence ministry says Canada and China revived their formal Defence Coordination Dialogue on September 4.

Canadians have learned of the meeting not from their own government, but from a terse statement issued by Beijing.

The fifth China-Canada Defence Coordination Dialogue was held in Canada, according to a two-paragraph notice posted at 10:19 p.m. Beijing time on September 5 on the English-language website of the Ministry of National Defense of the People’s Republic of China.

The ministry said the two sides discussed international and regional issues and expressed a willingness to strengthen “practical exchanges and cooperation” between their militaries.

Trump Renames Lake Ontario to ‘Lake America’ in Jab at Canada over Trade War

President Donald Trump has followed through on his threat to rename Lake Ontario as his trade war with Canada continues.

The president lambasted Canadian officials after they rejected a trade deal and responded with reciprocal tariffs to Trump’s newest tariffs.

The president signed an executive order changing the lake’s name to “Lake America” on Thursday.

“We’re going to be changing the name of Lake Ontario effective immediately to Lake America,” he said to reporters.

“We filed all of the necessary papers, documents, [and] everything else. We’ve notified all of the various people you have to notify,” he added.

The president previously changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the “Gulf of America” shortly after he retook office. (Read more from “Trump Renames Lake Ontario to ‘Lake America’ in Jab at Canada over Trade War” HERE)

A Powerful Country on the Other Side of the World is Quietly Shaping Trump’s Latest Trade Fight

President Donald Trump’s latest trade fight with Canada has a faraway force at its center: China.

As Washington presses Ottawa to do more to prevent Chinese steel, aluminum and other goods from reaching the U.S. market through North American supply chains, Canada is pursuing renewed economic ties with Beijing, adding a fresh complication to already tense trade talks.

At the heart of the fight is transshipment — routing goods through an intermediary country, sometimes after limited processing, before they reach their final market. U.S. officials fear steel and aluminum made in China or elsewhere could be processed in Canada or Mexico and then enter the United States as regional content.

The U.S. and Canada addressed that risk in a 2019 joint statement resolving an earlier steel-and-aluminum tariff dispute. The countries agreed to prevent steel and aluminum made outside the U.S. or Canada from being transshipped into the other country, and said they could distinguish between steel melted and poured in North America and steel made elsewhere.

U.S. trade hawks now argue Canada should accept tougher safeguards as Washington seeks to limit China’s role in critical manufacturing supply chains. (Read more from “A Powerful Country on the Other Side of the World is Quietly Shaping Trump’s Latest Trade Fight” HERE)

Feds Smash Indian Criminal Gangs in U.S.

Cops in the United States, Canada, and Europe arrested 24 Indian criminals from three different murderous drug gangs who were welcomed by progressive governments as they imported millions of wage-cutting Indian migrants.

Americans were already dealing with migrant Central American gangs, such as MS-13, and the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang welcomed by prior presidents.

The Justice Department reported the huge 50-site sweep on Tuesday:

Law enforcement in the United States, Canada, and Europe have arrested 24 defendants – 11 of them in California – connected to three India-based transnational organized crime groups charged with a litany of criminal acts, including the assassination in Canada in 2023 of a prominent Indian political and religious figure, the Justice Department announced today.

“Three defendants have been arrested in Canada, one defendant was arrested in Spain, and … Law enforcement is looking for 10 fugitives – seven in the United States, two in India, and one in Europe,” the statement said. (Read more from “Feds Smash Indian Criminal Gangs in U.S.” HERE)

Priest Says Hospital Asked Him To Consider Assisted Suicide Twice After Broken Hip

A Catholic priest said that while seeking treatment for a hip injury at a Canadian hospital, medical workers twice offered him the option of assisted suicide, despite knowing that he was religiously and morally opposed to the practice.

Fr. Larry Holland, 79, fractured his hip after falling in his bathroom on Christmas Day 2025 and subsequently went to Vancouver General Hospital to seek treatment for his injury, The B.C. Catholic, the official media outlet of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vancouver, first reported. However, despite the priest’s assertion that his condition is not and never was fatal, he says a doctor had raised the possibility of him taking his own life through Canada’s taxpayer-funded and government-run Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program in the event his injury worsened.

“I think I was very shocked. It is such a sensitive subject,” Holland told The B.C. Catholic about being given the option of MAiD, in an interview published Tuesday. “There are some things you just don’t talk about to some people.”

The priest told the outlet that the doctor said to him that MAiD is “something they have to discuss with someone who’s been given a terminal diagnosis.” Holland had at the time known made his moral opposition to euthanasia — which Catholic doctrine explicitly forbids.

After weeks passed, a nurse would also offer MAiD to Holland, he told The B.C. Catholic, adding that the nurse’s offer appeared to come out of a sense of “false compassion.” (Read more from “Priest Says Hospital Asked Him To Consider Assisted Suicide Twice After Broken Hip” HERE)

Lesbian Foster Moms Allegedly Tortured 12-Year-Old With Cold and Malnutrition Until He Died: ‘Shiver Shiver Dumb F–k’

A deranged Canadian couple allegedly laughed with each other about torturing their “hated” foster child to death, prosecutors claimed while delivering closing statements in an explosive murder trial.

Becky Hamber and Brandy Cooney, 46 and 44, sent each other sick text messages reading “shiver shiver dumb f–k” in the days before their 12-year-old foster child was found soaking wet, emaciated and unresponsive in their Ontario basement in December 2022, prosecutors showed during the trial.

The boy — known only as “LL” — was declared dead soon after that text, with authorities noting he was about the size of an average 6-year-old. He is believed to have died from hypothermia or cardiac arrest brought on by malnourishment, Law and Crime reported.

Cooney and Hamber also sent each other damning texts just a month before the boy died — messages prosecutors said indicated they knew they were harming him, and that they “hated” him.

“Unfortunately my thoughts [are] he is suddenly going to die and im going to jail,” Cooney alleged texted her wife. (Read more from “Lesbian Foster Moms Allegedly Tortured 12-Year-Old With Cold and Malnutrition Until He Died: ‘Shiver Shiver Dumb F–k’” HERE)

Canada Reportedly Set To Surpass 100,000 Assisted Suicides

Canada is closing in on 100,000 deaths through its government-assisted suicide program, a threshold no modern nation has reached.

The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC) estimates approximately 94,125 Canadians died through Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) from legalization through the end of 2025, LifeNews reported. The group projects the country will cross the six-figure mark by mid-to-late April 2026. Ontario alone recorded 5,303 MAID deaths in 2025, a 7.2% jump from the previous year, suggesting the pace is accelerating rather than leveling off.

Official government data backs that trajectory. Health Canada’s Sixth Annual Report confirmed 76,475 cumulative assisted suicide deaths through Dec. 31, 2024. The program took 16,499 lives that year, accounting for 5.1% of all Canadian deaths and a 6.9% increase over 2023.

Those figures dwarf every other country with legalized euthanasia. The United States recorded just 5,329 assisted suicide deaths across 23 years of state-level programs, according to the National Post. Belgium tallied 33,647 over two decades. Switzerland logged 8,738 in a similar span. Only the Netherlands posted a higher percentage of total deaths from euthanasia at 5.8%, but its smaller population yielded far fewer raw cases, 9,958 in 2024 compared to Canada’s 16,499.

Shocking report exposes terrifying reality of assisted suicide in Canada

Patients in Canada are having their lives ended by assisted suicide on the same day that they submit their paperwork requesting it, according to a shocking new report.

A total of 65 people died under the country’s Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) program on the same day they applied for it in 2023 in Ontario, a report from the Chief Coroner of Ontario’s Medical Assistance in Dying Death Review Committee (MDRC) revealed.

A further 154 patients were helped by the state with ending their lives the day after the request was made, the report states.

In one shocking case, a woman in her 80s, only referred to as Mrs. B, had her life ended under the country’s euthanasia program despite withdrawing her request — when her husband and caregiver requested it again on her behalf. . .

Her spouse then requested another euthanasia assessment, which deemed Mrs. B eligible despite her expressed desire to opt for palliative care instead. (Read more from “Shocking report exposes terrifying reality of assisted suicide in Canada” HERE)

Transgender Dropout Who Killed Family, 6 at Former School Posted About Dream of Becoming ‘Petite’ Woman

The transgender high school dropout who slaughtered his mom and stepbrother before gunning down six others at his former school in Canada had whined online about his 6-foot-tall frame making it impossible to live out his dream as a “petite” woman.

Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, aired his grievances about transitioning as well as his obsession for guns in a series of online posts in the years before unleashing hell at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School on Tuesday, the Telegraph reported.

“Do I have a good build type for HRT [hormone replacement therapy]?” Van Rootselaar wrote in a since-deleted post on a trans-community forum.

“Any advice is appreciated, should I put on weight or anything? Work out?”

In one post from March 2020, Van Rootselaar, who described himself as “MtF” — or male-to-female — wrote: “I’m pre-HRT 15yo, I’m super skinny, so that sometimes makes me feel kinda good!”

“But I’m Pre-HRT and my expectations are minimal for chest growth, and I’m 6ft tall! Why can’t I be petit an [sic] smol [small]?” (Read more from “Transgender Dropout Who Killed Family, 6 at Former School Posted About Dream of Becoming ‘Petite’ Woman” HERE)

Canadian Man Accused of Illegally Voting in North Carolina Elections for Over 20 Years

Federal prosecutors have charged a 69-year-old Canadian national with illegally voting in North Carolina elections, alleging that his participation in U.S. elections may stretch back more than two decades.

According to the Department of Justice (DOJ), Denis Bouchard, a Canadian citizen who has lived in the U.S. since the 1960s but never obtained American citizenship, is accused of falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen on voter registration applications. Officials say he cast ballots in the 2022 midterm elections and the 2024 presidential election.

Prosecutors believe Bouchard’s involvement goes beyond those two contests, with suspicions that he has voted in local county elections in New Hanover and Pender counties since the early 2000s.

“Every single time a noncitizen casts an illegal vote in North Carolina, it steals and nullifies the vote of an actual citizen,” U.S. Attorney Ellis Boyle said in a statement. “If the records are correct, this Canadian citizen appears to have voted in New Hanover and Pender County elections over the past 20 years. We intend to prove his illegal conduct in court and put an end to it.”

The North Carolina Board of Elections is working with federal prosecutors as part of the ongoing investigation.

While cases of noncitizen voting are rare, they remain a flashpoint in debates over election integrity. Last year, Michigan officials charged a Chinese student with casting a ballot in the 2024 election. That case came to light only after the student reportedly contacted his local clerk’s office asking if he could retrieve his ballot; he left the country just before Donald Trump returned to office in January.

In May, the Trump administration expanded the program by integrating SAVE with the Social Security Administration’s records. State and local election officials can now use Social Security numbers to cross-check citizenship status, a move federal authorities say will help ensure only eligible U.S. citizens are able to vote.
