Douglas Murray: “What happened in the skies above Saudi Arabia on Wednesday morning stands as a metaphor for three years of war.
The Israelis saw an existential threat, took matters into their own hands, and decided their own course.
The rest of the West will have to decide whether it will follow the Israeli model or let its own future be dictated by terror and the hijacking of its entire society.”
Exactly how I feel. I love Canada. But that Canada is gone. We have surrendered it. The Canada that I love no longer exists.
We have two choices. Either give up, or fight with a vicious fervor.
To the Americans:
I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.
And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:
You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.
This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.
Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.
This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.
But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.
This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.
And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:
Thank God for the United States.
Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.
Long may your admirable country dominate the world.
Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.
May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.
Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.
Thank God for the USA.
Happy 250th.

@WellsJorda89710 I’m Canadian, and in 2016, the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart, urging me to pray for him. At the time, I didn’t understand why, but I felt that God didn’t want me to question it—only to obey. To this day, he remains in my prayers, and now I understand the reason why.
The horrific shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia is a real tragedy: nine innocent lives were lost, including those of children, and 25 others were injured in one of the deadliest attacks in our history.
But let’s speak the truth that the establishment media refuses to acknowledge: the shooter was a trans-identified male, falsely described as female. He was lost in a delusion fuelled by a radical ideology that contradicts basic biological realities.
How many more must die before we end this toxic ideology?
Trans ideology isn’t liberation. It’s a path to psychosis and affirming it prevents real help from reaching those who need it most.
Look at the pattern unfolding across the West: Aberdeen, Club Q, Highlands Ranch, Annunciation Catholic School, Covenant School, and now Tumbler Ridge. This is an epidemic of trans-identified violence, and it won’t stop until we change course.
Liberals, fake Conservatives and every member of Parliament have voted unanimously for bill C-4 in 2021, which criminalizes parents and therapists who try to help minors with gender dysphoria accept who they are.
It’s illegal to treat children for a mental disorder, but it’s legal to encourage them to undergo “gender affirming therapy” and mutilate their body with harmful drugs or surgeries.
We've let a cult take over our society, where even police cannot call a man a man. Our children are paying the ultimate price for this cowardice.
Our position on transgender ideology is clear and unwavering: We must modify the Criminal Code to outlaw the use of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and any form of bodily mutilation on minors with the goal of “transitioning” to another sex.
Moreover, any person encouraging minors to “transition” shall be held criminally responsible for attempting to cause harm. We must also remove the ban imposed by Bill C-4 on helping minors who suffer from gender dysphoria accept their bodies.
If a child expresses confusion about their gender, we need to show real compassion and tell them they are perfect as they are, no need to change names, bodies, or lives to be loved. Affirming delusions is neglect, not care.
My thoughts are for the victims, their families, and the Tumbler Ridge community. May this senseless tragedy spark a return to common sense. Let’s make Canada safe again, by facing the truth.
