⚠️Canada is heading toward a skilled trades crisis. By 2034, we could face a shortage of 385,000 workers, while experienced tradespeople continue leaving the industry faster than they can be replaced. The consequences are real: delayed infrastructure, stalled projects, rising costs, and fewer workers available to train the next generation. At a time when Canada should be building, uncertainty and lack of direction are pushing the industry further behind. Canada needs a serious plan to protect the workforce that keeps our country moving forward. #cdnpoli

With profound sadness, the Michael Jackson Estate shares the passing of co-executor John McClain. John was an amazing human being and great friend to all who were lucky enough to know him. His legacy will live on through the lives he touched & the music he helped bring the world.

🚨Extortion & firearms-related arrests in Vancouver in the past week: Harjot Singh Taranveer Singh Dayajeet Singh Billing Harshdeep Singh Hanspreet Singh Not a single one of them is Canadian. Why were they allowed into Canada? Canada’s immigration system is bringing in people without proper screening, and now we’re surprised crime is rising. 🤔 #Canada #Cdnpoli #Immigration

Republican opposition to Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund is continuing to grow. Rep. Mike Flood of Nebraska publicly came out against the fund, saying: “I do not think one penny of any fund should ever go to any January 6 insurrectionist.” Flood said taxpayers should not be funding people who committed violence against law enforcement. Meanwhile, Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi are now pushing bipartisan legislation to outlaw the fund entirely. At the same time, three separate federal lawsuits are already challenging the fund in court. @MacFarlaneNews reports on the latest.

How does Carney and entourage rack up a $195,400 airplane food bill on three international trips? Here's some of the airplane food they enjoyed on your dime (from government ATIPs): Beef tenderloin with bordelaise sauce. Scottish salmon fillet. Sautéed beef with "world famous creamy sauce." Chicken with white wine gravy. Lamb rump, veal escalope... For dessert? "Luxury Normandy butter cups," blueberry cheesecake, crème brûlée, chocolate mousse ... Records also show multiple wines served on board.

The Assyrians were pioneers in the use of impalement, a brutal method of execution that served not only as punishment but also as a tactic of psychological warfare, well ahead of its notorious reputation linked to figures like Vlad the Impaler and the Ottoman Empire. This ghastly practice, often remembered due to Vlad Dracula and the Ottomans, was widely utilized by the Assyrians during their dominance from 9th-7th Centuries BC. Prominent leaders such as Ashurnasirpal II employed impalement to instill terror among adversaries and suppress rebellions, regularly displaying the corpses of executed enemies to send a chilling message. Although Vlad the Impaler is often associated with this gruesome method, it had already been enacted by various ancient civilizations, including the Babylonians and Persians, long before his era. #archaeohistories

An electric scooter theft recovered through an Apple AirTag has sparked a heated debate online. That’s because the owner appeared to spray the suspected thief moments after getting the scooter back. The now-viral clip, posted on X around May 24, shows a young man in a grey hoodie walking an electric scooter out of a suburban home and returning it to the person filming. The recovery itself looked surprisingly calm. yhoo.it/49paNNO

ICE deported a citizen born in U.S. to Mexico—now he's filed lawsuit demanding to be allowed back into the country. "I told 3 different agents that I am American citizen," he said. "They just called me crazy." Then they threatened him with 5 prison years for fraud—accusing him of lying to federal officers about his citizenship. Agents refused to look at his birth certificate or social security card—or even medical records proving born in U.S. hospital. Brian Morales was born in Denver, Colorado—he was detained as part of a construction crew in Fredericksburg, Texas. ICE deported him just days later to a state in Mexico that he had never been to—far away from even distant relatives. He is currently awaiting the outcome of his lawsuit in Aguascalientes, Mexico—485 miles south of the nearest U.S.-Mexico border.
