U.S. has reversed its stance on the Ukraine war. Under the Trump administration, the U.S. has supported Russia in the United Nations. In fact, three resolutions were brought to the United Nations on Monday, seeking to end the three-year-old conflict. America voted against these resolutions, marking the first time it has taken a position contrary to its European allies on the Russia-Ukraine issue. Specifically, America voted against a resolution proposed by Europe in the United Nations, which condemned Russia's aggression and supported Ukraine's territorial integrity. As a result, significant

The petition, launched by BC-based author Qualia Reed and sponsored by NDP MP Charlie Angus, is currently being reviewed by the House of Commons. The petition claims that Elon Musk has engaged in activities that are detrimental to Canada’s national interest. It accuses the tech billionaire of supporting policies of President Donald Trump that undermine Canadian sovereignty, as Musk is one of Trump's top advisers. Born in South Africa, Musk obtained Cana

US President Donald Trump has claimed that he canceled $21 million in funding allocated for India. He suggested that the previous US administration may have used this funding to influence the election of a leader other than Prime Minister Narendra Modi in India. Trump questioned the reasoning behind the United States providing financial support to increase voter turnout in India, especially considering India’s strong economy.

The Senate on Thursday narrowly voted to confirm Kash Patel as director of the FBI, moving to place him a top the nation's premier federal law enforcement agency despite doubts from Democrats about his qualifications and concerns he will do Donald Trump's bidding and go after the Republican president's adversaries. A Trump loyalist who has fiercely criticized the agency, Patel will inherit an FBI gripped by turmoil as the Justice Department over the past month has forced out a group of senior bureau officials and made a highly unusual demand for the names of thousands of agents who participat

Canada defeated its archrival the United States 3-2 in overtime in the 4 Nations Face-Off final on Thursday night in what was an emotionally-charged affair for players and fans alike. The rematch between the two sides was intense, although it did not consist of three fights in the opening nine seconds, as the preliminary round game in Montreal did last Saturday, a 3-1 win for the Americans.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday called Volodymyr Zelenskyy a “dictator without elections,” lashing out after the Ukrainian president said Trump was being influenced by Russian disinformation as he moves to end the Kremlin's war against Ukraine on terms that Kyiv says are too favorable to Moscow. “Think of it, a modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldn’t be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and “TRUMP,” will never be able to settle,” Tr
