Your mid-week struggle against evil ...
And, boy, do we have a lot of it:
The Taliban hung four dead bodies in a public square in western Afghanistan, according to local witnesses, in a sign that the group is returning to some of its harsh punishments of the past.
(Sidebar: did anyone expect them to do anything different?)
**
Six months after Kevin Omar Mohamed‘s prison sentence for terrorism came to an end, the RCMP’s Toronto O-INSET national security team decided to check up on him.
What they found set off alarms.
Not only was he violating his probation by using a smartphone, he’d downloaded al-Qaeda literature, manuals on bombs and poisons, and a tract justifying the killing of women and children, according to allegations filed in court.
**
The families of more than two dozen Canadians held at prisons and camps for ISIS detainees in Syria have filed a case in the Federal Court accusing the government of failing to bring them home.
**
World Health Organization (WHO) staff were among 83 aid workers who sexually abused women and girls while tackling the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a report finds.
The abuses, which included nine allegations of rape, were committed by both national and international workers between 2018 and 2020.
The report comes after more than 50 local women reported sexual abuse.

BREAKING: In a 218-211 vote, the Democrat-controlled House just passed the most extreme abortion law in American history.

It would codify the "right" to kill preborn children through all 9 months in all 50 states.
(Sidebar: being pro-abortion is a mentally illness but don't take my word for it.)
And this is before we get to the Liberal Party's evil:
Lobbyists representing the bailout press endorse cabinet censorship of the internet. News Media Canada called itself the nation’s “most precious guardian” of free speech but proposed the Department of Canadian Heritage extend censorship to critics who use legal but hurtful words against media: “The news publishing industry remains under threat from the unregulated and unchecked social media.”

On Tuesday afternoon, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was asked about why his government hasn’t banned Huawei, and if it plans to.
“We’ve actually seen that many Canadian telecommunications companies, if not all of them, have started to remove Huawei from their networks and are moving forward in ways that don’t involve them as a company,” Trudeau said.
“We continue to weigh and look at the different options, but we will no doubt be making announcements within the comings weeks.”
You mean say "yes" to Huawei, you little sh--.
**
“A few hours ago I spoke with the Governor General and confirmed for her that it is my intention of forming the next government,” Trudeau said.
Chrystia is still around to stink things up, too.
**
Amid the jubilation surrounding the release of two Canadians from Chinese prisons, Robert Schellenberg might well be wondering: “What about me?”
Anyone with a skill is valuable.
Don't tell that to the government, though:
Skilled trades are stigmatized in Canada, says internal research by the Department of Employment. A survey of teenagers and young adults found many considered the work too hard, boring and “not as respected” as other jobs while acknowledging trades paid better than many university degrees: “It’s a chronic situation.”
It is the Church that stopped the widespread practice of human sacrifice in polytheistic religions. It is Church that converted barbarians, evangelized the Vikings, and tamed the Wild West. The Church has done good, a lot of good, and who could argue that our world is not better for it?
Also - why do I keep thinking of Jerzy Popielusko?:
Pastor Artur Pawlowski has just been arrested upon his return to Canada from a months-long speaking tour in the United States.
After landing at the Calgary airport, police rushed onto the tarmac and arrested Pastor Artur the moment he stepped off the plane.
Lockdowns have no effect on the economy ... until they do:
Most Canadians expect to carry the impact of pandemic debts into retirement, the Canadian Institute of Actuaries said yesterday. Researchers found the financial fallout from Covid was so bleak more than one in ten Canadians, 14 percent, said they “do not expect to ever retire.”
Also - the unvaccinated lepers are the reason why nurses are quitting, not mismanagement, governmental incompetence and fatigue:
A frustrated contractor told the Department of Public Works it was “killing our doctors and nurses” by rationing pandemic masks from the outbreak of Covid, according to internal emails. Shortages caused by mismanagement of a national stockpile were “beyond embarrassing,” said a Canadian distributor: “It’s approaching negligence.”
**
Forced overtime during the pandemic and a recent spike in births have exacerbated a shortage of labour and delivery nurses in Quebec, leading several Montreal-area maternity wards to curtail services and even, in some cases, temporarily close.
(Sidebar: I'll just leave this right here.)
**
Canada’s National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is now recommending COVID-19 booster shots for residents of long-term care homes and seniors living in other congregate settings.
(Sidebar: the ones who everyone forgot.)
**
The Alberta New Democrats have proposed a door-knocking campaign to improve vaccine uptake rates, with health-care workers going from home to home to offer up a dose of a COVID-19 shot.
**
The study confirming Canada’s children were largely spared severe COVID-19 during the early waves of the pandemic, with relatively few admitted to hospital — and even among the children hospitalized, a large number weren’t actually due to COVID — appeared this week, just as public health units begin preparing for COVID vaccines for children down to age five.
I'll just leave these right here:
Following the finding of a potential one in 5,000 risk of heart inflammation after a second dose of Moderna, Ontario is recommending people aged 18 to 24 be preferentially vaccinated with Pfizer — a decision made “out of an abundance of caution,” but one that could rattle confidence in COVID-19 vaccines.
**
In the third (but not final) video, one worker claims the vaccine isn’t necessary for kids. He also states that the media should never be trusted.
“Kids shouldn’t get a f*cking [COVID] vaccine,” said Johnson & Johnson Regional Business Lead Brandon Schadt. “It’s a kid, you just don’t do that, you know? Not something that’s so unknown in terms of repercussions down the road, you know?”
“It’s a kid, it’s a f*cking kid, you know? They shouldn’t have to get a f*cking [COVID] vaccine, you know?” he added.
The other employee, a scientist named Justin Durrant, said he wouldn’t recommend the Johnson and Johnson vaccine for anyone. “Don’t get the Johnson & Johnson [COVID vaccine]. I didn’t tell you though,” he said, adding that “it wouldn’t make that much of a difference” if children are unvaccinated for COVID.”
So get the shot, say the mouthpieces for those who financially benefit from these shots.
And - I guess it was too big a gamble:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau yesterday omitted any deadline to mandate vaccination of 300,540 federal employees and millions of air travelers and train passengers. Cabinet had originally set an October 31 deadline for compulsory vaccination: “Are you prepared to lay off tens of thousands of workers?”
I'm sure the virus will go easy on these federal employees because that's what viruses do.
It's science ... or something.
Wait - are there shoes for this?:
Indigenous Services Canada gave residents of an Ontario First Nation 71 expired doses of the Pfizer vaccine for COVID-19 between Aug. 9 and Sept. 15.
According to a statement from the Saugeen First Nation, nurses from the federal department administered doses based on the expiry date on the vials, not realizing the doses had already expired because they were not refrigerated.
Reconciliation looks awfully good on camera but probably not this.
(Sidebar: FYI, there were verified graves at Babi Yar but not shoes.)
Also - no, Big Aboriginal is not done with you, Church. Nor is anyone done destroying the churches:
A leader in Canada’s national assembly of Catholic bishops says he hopes an apology for the harms endured at residential schools could mark a turning point in the church’s relations with Indigenous Peoples.
Black Canadians seem to disregard PM Blackface's antipathy toward them:
Immigrants and visible minorities have more pride in Canada’s treatment of ethnic groups than white people, Statistics Canada said yesterday. The agency said most Black, Asian and Arab-Canadians were prouder of the nation’s achievements than whites: “Immigrant respondents, 63 percent, were more likely than Canadian-born respondents (43 percent) to be proud of Canada’s treatment of all groups in society.”
All that white shame means nothing!
Also - the Green Party, one of racism and hatred of the Jews:
Green Party Leader Annamie Paul who had to fight off critics in her own party to even run in the federal election only to lose at the ballot box, is resigning.
Not to be outdone, Desmond Cole asks Mrs. Paul to hold his kombucha:
In what can only be described as an epic self-own, Toronto activist Desmond Cole took to Twitter incensed by suggestions that the slogan 'Free Palestine' is a call for the destruction of Israel. He demanded proof or what he thought was a baseless accusation, his own followers obliged.
"Why is free Palestine in your display name ugly motherf**ker, this Palestinian says we will be destroying 'israel' (sic) in the most violent ways imaginable" one user tweeted.
Wow.
Should we read something into this?:

Fumio Kishida is potentially the next prime minister of Japan:
Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) anointed former foreign minister Fumio Kishida as its new leader on Wednesday, a victory for the party elite that virtually ensures the soft-spoken consensus-builder will become prime minister within days.
Although he enjoys only moderate popular support and is saddled with a bland image, Kishida drew critical backing from some party heavyweights, allowing him to stop the momentum of outspoken rising star Taro Kono, the minister in charge of the coronavirus vaccine roll-out.
The Hiroshima lawmaker succeeds unpopular Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, who did not seek re-election as party leader after just one year in office. Kishida is almost certain to become premier at a parliamentary session on Monday because of the LDP’s majority in the lower house.
It was not clear if Kishida’s tepid profile might spell problems for the LDP in a general election due by Nov. 28.
The Chinese-spread virus and the failed showcase that was the Olympics seemed to be too much for Suga.
The projectile North Korea fired off its east coast on Tuesday was a newly developed hypersonic missile, state news media KCNA reported on Wednesday, the latest in a series of new weapons tested by the reclusive state.
North Korea fired the missile towards the sea off its east coast, South Korea’s military said, as Pyongyang called on the United States and South Korea to scrap their “double standards” on weapons programs to restart diplomatic talks.
