The committee of experts noted that commemorations deemed to be of national significance “must derive directly from events or persons of ongoing significance to Canadian history and Canadian society.
“Members felt that when evaluated against the policy criteria, the proposed theme is not sufficiently a Canadian story,” the minutes state.
“The primary events did not occur on Canadian soil and the subjects only became Canadians subsequent to these events. The topic is therefore not seen as a central theme in Canadian history.”
Unlike Nazi leaders, he says, no communist leaders have been prosecuted for their crimes
The Memorial to the Victims of Communism has already been the focus of multiple controversies over its exact purpose, location, size and cost over the last 15 years. The price tag for the project has ballooned to an estimated $7.5 million — including $6 million in public funds — from an original budget of $1.5 million that was supposed to be funded entirely through private donations from Tribute to Liberty.

US government study finds association between high levels of fluoride exposure and potential neurological risk
Ontario has a new incentive encouraging homeowners to install heat pumps to reduce their energy use and lower planet-heating greenhouse gas emissions associated with home heating.
Jack Gibbons, chair of the Ontario Clean Air Alliance, who recently installed a $14,000 cold climate air-source heat pump, said a heat pump can reduce heating bills by around $2,000 annually.
Within families, a sibling with a higher IQ or more favorable polygenic scores for intelligence was more likely to lean towards liberal political beliefs compared to their sibling. This was consistent across both biological and adoptive families.
This outcome underscores the potential genetic underpinnings of political ideology, suggesting that the variation in genetic factors related to intelligence could partially explain why siblings raised in the same environment might develop diverging political views.
“We find both IQ and genetic indicators of intelligence, known as polygenic scores, can help predict which of two siblings tends to be more liberal,” Edwards told PsyPost. “These are siblings with the same upbringing, who are raised under the same roof. This implies that intelligence is associated with political beliefs, not solely because of environment or upbringing, but rather that the genetic variation for intelligence may play a part in influencing our political differences. Why is this the case? I do not know.”
The Bible is 100% pro-slavery from beginning to end. We renegotiated that away.
So what are we going to do here folks? I only need 11,000 votes. Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break.
“Your numbers are right.” But your numbers aren’t right. They’re really wrong and they’re really wrong, Brad. And I know this phone call is going nowhere other than, other than ultimately, you know — Look ultimately, I win, okay?
I’m just saying you know, and, you know, under new counts, and under uh, new views, of the election results, we won the election. You know? It’s very simple. We won the election.
Data on labour productivity, collected by the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) from Statistics Canada, show a 4.5 per cent growth in productivity between 2019 and 2023 within the federal government.
"While time is important, it is even more important that every vote is counted and counted accurately," Gore cautioned. "There's something very special about our process that depends totally on the American people having the chance to express their will without any interference."
"I would not want to win the presidency by a few votes cast in error or misinterpreted or not counted. I don't think Gov. Bush wants that either," he said.
we found little evidence for the effects of monitoring and monitoring characteristics on performance behaviors. These null findings deviate from the conventional wisdom that EPM increases motivation to perform
In that survey, Americans were asked whether various statements were believable, including some that were simple statements of fact. Respondents were asked, for example, whether “Trump called Georgia state officials in an attempt to get them to change the 2020 election outcome in Georgia in an effort to stay president.” This is not a question of opinion; it happened. We know it happened because The Washington Post reported that it happened. And not only did The Post report that it happened, we obtained audio of the call in which Trump does exactly what’s articulated.
About 6 in 10 Americans said that the statement presented in the poll was believable. Only 3 in 10 Republicans did — even though it happened.
Former officials in Donald Trump's White House claim that on at least three occasions as president, he delayed disaster aid in states that were not Republican-leaning
In one shocking instance — during the deadly California wildfires in 2018 — Harvey claims that Trump initially refused to approve disaster aid because the state is historically Democratic. Harvey alleges that the then-president only changed his mind after staff made the case that Orange County, where fire was spreading, largely supported Trump.
“We went as far as looking up how many votes he got in those impacted areas … to show him these are people who voted for you,” Harvey said — a story corroborated by Troye.
Ken Block, whom the Trump campaign hired in 2020 to find voter fraud in the election, penned an op-ed Tuesday stating unequivocally that the 2020 presidential election was not stolen and that there was no evidence of voter fraud sufficient to change the outcome of the election.
The review found individualized cases of voter fraud in each state: 198 in Arizona, 64 in Georgia, 26 in Pennsylvania, 31 in Wisconsin, 56 in Michigan and around 98 in Nevada.
Finally, what gives this escalation its sustained genocidal character is the “dysmentalization” that Israel is experiencing: the gradual erosion and acute extinction of empathy with the victimized community, the “ever sharper separation between the regime’s people and the target people.”
The genocidal dynamic hinges on this mental, social, cultural, and political separation. It is maintained by militaristic self-aggrandizement and racist denigration, and leads to a persistent moral distancing between “civilized” Israeli society and “barbaric” Gaza squalor. Even after the last rounds are fired and final shells are launched, that genocidal dynamic will still be present.
