German Court Allows Intelligence Monitoring of Conservative AfD Party Over ‘Threat to Democracy,’ Could Ban It Altogether
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05/german-court-allows-intelligence-monitoring-conservative-afd-party/
A court in Germany has approved the intelligence monitoring of the Alternative for Germany (AFD) political party on the grounds that it poses a “threat to democracy.”
As the party’s popularity continues to rise as Germans rise up against the globalist regime that rules them, particulary over the issue of mass immigration, the government has now found an excuse to monitor them by classifying them as an extremist organization.

Censorship in the Classroom? Teacher Allegedly Fired for Committing the Most Heinous Crime — Encouraging His Students to Think Critically
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05/censorship-classroom-teacher-fired-committing-most-heinous-crime/
Warren Smith, a high school teacher and YouTuber renowned for his channel dedicated to critical thinking has been fired.
Smith believes his dismissal is tied to his YouTube content, specifically a viral video that Elon Musk retweeted. The video showcases Smith’s commitment to critical thinking in the face of baseless accusations against “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling.
Smith’s YouTube channel, called Secret Scholar Society, which promotes critical thinking and challenges conventional narratives, has evidently ruffled some feathers at his institution.
The incident in question revolves around a classroom discussion earlier this year, during which Smith gently challenged a student who accused J.K. Rowling of being “bigoted.”
Smith’s methodical approach encouraged the student to define what constitutes a bigoted opinion without imposing his own judgments, effectively teaching the student how to think, not what to think. Continue…
Australian Government’s Overreach Slammed: Conservative Social Media ‘Gab’ Defies Censorship Demands, Faces $500,000 Fine for Upholding Free Speech
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05/australian-governments-overreach-slammed-conservative-social-media-gab/
The conservative social media platform Gab has openly defied the Australian government’s demand to remove or censor a video depicting a tragic attack at the Assyrian Christ The Good Shepherd Church in western Sydney.
While tech giants like Meta acquiesced to similar requests, Gab has told the Australian government to pound sand, potentially incurring a hefty fine of $500,000 USD.
The controversial video, which includes a poignant message from Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel, who was wounded during the assault, became a flashpoint for a clash between censorship and the right to free speech. Continue…
Here Come the Lying AI Robots: Study Alerts That AI Systems Are Getting Adept at Deceiving Humans
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05/here-come-lying-ai-robots-study-alerts-that/
AI is all the rage, right now, with both the benefits and the dangers of this breakthrough tech being discussed to the exhaustion.
AI is said to help us code, write, and synthesize vast amounts of data. They reportedly can outwit humans at board games, decode the structure of proteins and hold a rudimentary conversation.
But now it surfaces a study claiming that AI systems have grown in sophistication to the point of developing a capacity for deception.
The paper states that A range of AI systems have learned techniques to systematically induce ‘false beliefs in others to accomplish some outcome other than the truth’. Continue…

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/zelensky-thanks-americans-billions-aid-pleads-more-patriot-systems
Secretary of State Antony Blinken has made another trip to Ukraine, appearing in Kiev alongside Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday, and the US top diplomat vowed that some of the US aid from Biden's recently approved $60 billion for Ukraine is "now on the way".
But Zelensky immediately pivoted to begging for Patriot missiles amid Russia's new Karkhiv assault, saying that "of course we are very thankful for this to Americans, to American people" but that "We need, really we need today two Patriots for Kharkiv, for Kharkiv region because people there are under attack, civilians and warriors, everybody there is under Russian missiles." As we noted earlier of this perhaps awkward moment…Continue

https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/south-korea-still-dominates-world-highest-density-robot-workers
China's huge investment in industrial robotics has made it one of the most automated nations on the planet in the space of just a few short years.
As Statista's Anna Fleck reports, according to the latest study by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), the number of operational robots in China's manufacturing industry reached a ratio of 392 units per 10,000 employees in 2022, a robot density now similar to that of Japanese industry.
China currently ranks fifth in the world, behind South Korea (1,012 per 10,000 employees), Singapore (730), Germany (415) and Japan (397).
As the following infographic shows, China and South Korea are the countries that have made the most progress in the race to industrial automation in recent years. Continue…

Ratio’d | Indian students PROTEST against DEPORTATION from Canada
https://tnc.news/2024/05/13/rhf-indian-protest-deportation/
International students, who are no longer eligible for postgraduate work permits and will be slated for deportation from Canada, are now protesting in large numbers against provincial and federal governments to let them stay in the country. New rules put in place by the P.E.I government last year mean that permits are only being given to students with qualifications in construction and healthcare.
The reality is, Canada does not need anymore service workers. There are too many temporary residents in Canada and even Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has acknowledged that.
However, when this exact same protest happened in Manitoba a few months ago, the federal government granted the students a 2-year extension. Will the same thing happen again in P.E.I or will these people have to go back home?
Fourth Indian national arrested in Canada in connection to Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s murder
https://tnc.news/2024/05/14/fourth-indian-national-arrested-in-canada-in-connection-to-hardeep-singh-nijjars-murder/
A fourth Indian national living in Canada has been charged for alleged involvement in the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Sikh activist who was gunned down outside a B.C. temple last June.
Amandeep Singh, 22, was already in the custody of Peel Regional Police on unrelated firearms charges before any connection was alleged between him and Nijjar’s murder.
After further questioning by the Ontario Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, the agency contacted the B.C. Prosecution Service, which police say gave “sufficient information” to charge Singh with “first degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.”
According to police, Singh lived in Brampton, Ont. and Surrey, B.C.
No further details on the arrest have been made public yet however, as the investigation and court processes remain ongoing.
Singh’s arrest marks the fourth arrest of an Indian national living in connection to Nijjar’s killing, with three others arrested in Edmonton earlier this month. Continue…
LGBTQ group bans members of Saskatchewan gov from pride events
https://tnc.news/2024/05/14/lgbtq-group-bans-members-saskatchewan-gov/
Queen City Pride has cancelled Saskatchewan’s annual pride flag-raising ceremony at the provincial legislature and has said members of the Saskatchewan Party were not welcome at pride month events.
“We do not believe the current Saskatchewan government is our ally, and we do not believe it would be appropriate to allow them to take part in such an important event for our community,” said the organization in a news release on Monday.
Additionally, the LGBTQ group banned Saskatchewan Party members from participating in all pride month celebrations as a punishment for the government’s implementation of Bill 137, a pronoun consent law which came into effect last October.
The law requires parents to be notified if children under the age of 16 choose to go by a different pronoun while at school.
The provincial government also invoked the notwithstanding clause after LGBTQ advocacy groups challenged the law in court on Charter grounds.
According to Minister of Crown Investments Corporation Dustin Duncan, the bill is ultimately about giving parents more say over their children’s education.
“It is the government’s belief that parents are partners in their children’s education,” said Duncan. Continue…
Ontario to permanently strip repeat car thieves of driver’s licences
https://tnc.news/2024/05/14/ontario-strip-repeat-car-thieves-licences/
Proposed changes to Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act will see repeat auto thieves having their licences revoked for life, in an attempt to quash the auto theft crisis.
Ontario Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria and Solicitor General Michael Kerzner made the announcement during a press conference at an Ontario Provincial Police detachment in Toronto on Tuesday.
The Ontario government is seeking a 10-year driver’s licence suspension as penalty for a first conviction of auto theft if it involved violence, force, use of a weapon or for the purpose of financial gain.
A second offence could lead to a 15-year suspension and a third could result in the convicted having their licence revoked for life.
“Car theft is a cowardly and often violent crime that can traumatize victims and communities who experience it,” said Sarkaria in a government release. “Under the leadership of Premier Ford, our government is sending a clear message to those who commit these crimes and using every tool in our toolbox to keep them off our streets.”
The legislation is to be tabled on Thursday, and will also include provisions for harsher penalties for those caught street racing.
A first street racing conviction could come with an automatic licence suspension of at least one year. Continue…
YouTuber who interviewed Trudeau pushes back after PM’s capital gains tax hike defence
Days after Justin Trudeau promoted an interview of himself with finance YouTuber “The Plain Bagel,” the host felt compelled to correct the Prime Minister’s explainer video of his capital gains tax hike.
Trudeau said Monday in a video posted to X that his tax increase would only affect the wealthiest in Canadian society.
“The very richest people are going to profit a little less off their assets,” Trudeau said. “Only 0.13% of Canadians, to be exact. These are people who have an average income of $1.4 million a year, and they’re mostly in their 60s or older.”
Instead of taxing people who make $250,000 or more in capital gains for half of their income, he will make them “pay their fair share” by taking two-thirds.However, Richard Coffin, a self-proclaimed “finance nerd” who runs The Plain Bagel, pointed out a discrepancy in Trudeau’s explanation. The YouTuber noted that even the Liberals’ budget states the tax will not solely target the top 0.13% of Canadian earners.
“Yes, this does primarily target wealthier individuals with the $250,000 threshold, but there are cracks where the middle class can fall through,” Coffin said. “For one, the 0.13% (according to the budget) is how many people are affected per year, not how many people will ever see an impact. Estate transfers are one area someone outside the 1% could see an impact.”
Coffin also pointed out that Trudeau’s figure doesn’t include beneficiaries of trusts and corporations who are also captured by the tax increase without the $250,000 threshold.
“Self-employed individuals who have used corporations for retirement savings will likewise be impacted. That includes doctors, but also electricians, plumbers, and other individuals who may need to incorporate to do their job,” he said. Continue…

Trudeau government only sought legal advice after Emergencies Act was invoked, records indicate
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/trudeau-government-only-sought-legal-advice-after-emergencies-act-was-invoked-records-indicate/
Records show that
A Conservative MP’s request for information has revealed that the cabinet of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau waited until after it had invoked the Emergencies Act (EA), which was done to take down the peaceful Freedom Convoy, to get legal advice from Canada’s Attorney General on whether its use was lawful.
As noted in a recent Blacklocks’s Reporter article, Access To Information records obtained by Conservative MP Arnold Viersen from the office of the Attorney General confirm what many MPs have been suspicious of for years, that Trudeau’s use of the EA was not really warranted.
“I filed an Access To Information request for the memorandum on the Emergencies Act sent to the Attorney General from the Public Prosecution Service,” MP Viersen said in a statement to the media.
“What did they advise the Attorney General? We will never know because Justin Trudeau censored it.”
The documents, despite being censored, do reveal that the two-page Memorandum For The Attorney General was dated February 15, 2022, and was written by the deputy director of prosecutions. The date of the memorandum is significant, as it comes after Trudeau had invoked the EA on February 14. Continue…
Canada Post’s vaccine policy was unjust, rules arbitrator
https://thecountersignal.com/canada-posts-vaccine-policy-was-unjust-rules-arbitrator/
A recent ruling by a labour arbitrator has challenged part of the federal government’s COVID vaccine mandate, specifically Canada Post’s policy that suspended without pay employees who worked entirely remotely.
The arbitrator concluded that Canada Post’s vaccine mandate, which required employees to confirm receiving two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine or face unpaid leave, was unreasonable for those with no prospect of in-person work.
Arbitrator Michelle Flaherty’s May 6 decision came from a case brought by the Union of Postal Communications Employees (UPCE). UPCE’s case questioned the rationale behind applying the vaccine mandate to staff who work remotely.
Trudeau promises millions of houses, 11,000 construction workers quit
https://thecountersignal.com/11000-construction-workers-quit/
Canada lost 11,000 construction workers in April 2024, even as PM Justin Trudeau was promising to build 4 million new houses in his budget announcements.
According to the latest data from Statistics Canada on employment by worker class, Canada dropped from roughly 1,600,900 construction workers to 1,589,800 in just a month between March and April—a loss of roughly 11,100 construction workers.
This loss of critical construction workers came the same month as Trudeau released his 2024 federal budget, promising to build 4 million new houses in just 7 years—a task which would require the building of a new home every single minute of every single hour of every single day until 2031.
