The United Kingdom’s cradle-to-grave “free” National Healthcare System (NHS) is in deep crisis, with not enough doctors and nurses, long waits for ambulances, patients sprawled on the floors at the ER, and emergency consultation appointments being booked a year out. And it is estimated that hundreds of people are dying each week because of delays in urgent care. The president of the Royal College of Emergency Medicine, Dr. Adrian Boyle, shared that once figures showing the wait times for December are released, they will likely be the worst he has ever seen, as more than a dozen NHS trusts and ambulance services declared critical incidents during the holidays.

Dr. Jordan Peterson Accused of Heresy by Ontario College of Psychologists

I’ve often thought that if Dr. Jordan Peterson can be faulted for anything, it’s taking his ridiculous critics too seriously. Since he rose to prominence in 2016 for his perfectly reasonable opposition to the Trudeau government’s Bill C-16 compelled speech law, he has been contending with legions of bloviating, hysterical ninnies who are determined to make fools of themselves by debating him. The clinical psychologist, author, and professor emeritus at the University of Toronto is probably the most learned and cultivated man in Canada. However, instead of being grateful for the privilege and pleasure of listening to him, many of Canada’s government and institutional ...

China’s Suppression of the Internet Industry

Arguably, China has the world’s only internet companies that can match America’s in ambition and scope. For some time, the communist state has been miles ahead of the United States in substituting paper money with smartphone payments, thus transforming technology giants into cutting-edge linchpins of the consumer economy. China’s communist leaders have noticed such a degree of influence wielded by technological firms. After all, never in Communist China have private entities like technology giants had such clout over institutions and people’s lives. Click for Full Text!

For outdoor aficionados, there is no grander continent than South America. With its Andean peaks, Patagonian glaciers, world-famous Brazilian beaches, vast tropical rainforests, and gargantuan waterfalls, South America is arguably the most splendid tract of real estate on the face of the earth. Historically, it has also been blessed with more than its fair share of economic prosperity and comparative lack of major wars. During the two world wars of the 20th century, South America was left unscathed. Many South American countries, including Argentina and Brazil, have attracted huge numbers of immigrants. Last month, South Americans were overjoyed to see one of their own — Argentina ...

In December, U.S. President Joe Biden signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for fiscal year 2023. The NDAA would authorize $770 billion in defense spending, the White House reported on Dec. 27 — $45 billion more than Biden had requested earlier in 2022. Also incorporated in this huge defense spending package is a legislative initiative to boost relations between the United States and Taiwan, an ally of Washington. In particular, this new act would authorize up to $10 billion in “Foreign Military Financing” grants through 2027 to Taiwan to overhaul its security abilities and enhance its capacity to defend itself in the event of an invasion by mainland ...

There is no requirement that a person be terminally ill to request assisted suicide or euthanasia. There were over 10,000 deaths by assisted suicide and euthanasia in Canada 2021.

Employees of Chinese technology behemoth ByteDance inappropriately retrieved data from social media platform TikTok to monitor American journalists in an attempt to trace the source of leaks to the media, the company acknowledged in December 2022. Such an admission can be contrasted with TikTok’s widespread efforts to persuade customers and governments of key markets such as the United States that they safeguard users’ data privacy and that the social media platform does not undermine the national security of these markets.

China Persists in Detaining Dissidents in Psychiatric Facilities

Based on an August 2022 report titled Drugged and Detained: China’s psychiatric prisons by human rights group Safeguard Defenders, government agents and police in China persist in detaining government critics in psychiatric facilities, notwithstanding “reforms.” Domestically termed as ankang in Mandarin, after the system of police- operated psychiatric prisons introduced in the 1980s, most victims are detained in regular psychiatric wards nowadays. What this implies is that doctors and hospitals team up with the communist authorities to expose victims to medically-unnecessary involuntary hospitalizations as well as forced medication. For instance, doctors unlawfully do not ...
