Figure 3, an AI-powered robot, marched into the White House alongside the First Lady to announce that what American children really need are robot teachers. According to whistleblower testimony from Figure AI’s now-fired product safety division head, the robot supposedly has “superhuman speed” and enough strength “to crush a human skull.”

A new report ranks Vancouver as the fourth most expensive city in the world, just behind Hong Kong, Sydney, and San Jose. Shockingly, both Toronto and Vancouver were found to be more “unaffordable” than New York City. The study from Chapman University compared median home prices to median incomes and referred to Vancouver as “impossibly unaffordable”—a term that refers to markets with median prices triple the level of “affordable.” The study’s authors say that unaffordability at this scale did not exist 30 years ago.

A single exposure to a toxic fungicide during pregnancy may ripple across 20 generations, with inherited health problems worsening over time. That’s the finding of a new Washington State University study (Korolenko et al.) in rats, showing that toxic exposure can alter reproductive cells in ways that are passed down long after the original contact. The research deepens our understanding of long-term, multigenerational harm—and suggests that some diseases seen today, including cancer, could trace back to an ancestor’s exposure to toxins.

In a move that effectively shields the existing vaccine schedule from scrutiny, a US federal judge has blocked US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from revising childhood vaccine recommendations and restructuring the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency continues its mass culling response, with over 124,000 turkeys reportedly killed this past winter in Western Ontario following an avian flu outbreak.

After governments spent over $300 billion during the pandemic, there appears to be no meaningful expansion in healthcare capacity to show for it. According to a SecondStreet.Org report, over 23,000 Canadians died last year while waiting for surgeries or diagnostic scans. MRI wait times averaged 16 weeks, while Neurosurgery and Orthopedic surgery wait times were nearly 50 weeks!

Canada’s House of Commons passed an “anti-Christian” bill that would criminalize quoting some religious texts. MPs from the Liberal Party and the Bloc Québécois, in a 186–137 vote, passed Bill C-9, known as the “Combatting Hate Act,” which included removing the protection for good faith religious text. The bill now heads to Canada’s rubber-stamp Senate for review.

According to Pew Research, Americans’ trust in government has collapsed from 77% in 1964 to roughly 17% today—one of the lowest levels ever recorded.

Canada is set to pass a grim milestone in its medically-assisted suicide program (MAiD), with a total of 100,000 citizens projected to be euthanized by the government before its 10th anniversary in June—more than Canada’s entire WWII death toll, according to The National Post. About 45 Canucks per day are being euthanized, accounting for about 1 in 20 deaths.

The UN is “extremely concerned” that Canada is offering death by MAiD faster than it offers adequate support to live. The United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities stepped in to urge Canada to scrap “Track 2” MAiD, which allows euthanasia for people whose death isn’t reasonably foreseeable. Track 2 MAID was legalized in 2021 for people with chronic illnesses or disabilities and includes the planned 2027 expansion to people whose sole condition is a mental illness.

As fuel prices surge amid geopolitical conflict, the International Energy Agency has stepped in—not to question fragile supply chains or energy policy—but to tell everyday people to stay home, while urging governments to ration road access through number plate restrictions that alternate driving days by odd- or even-numbered license plates.

Despite dipping into emergency fuel reserves, fuel shortages have caused over 600 service stations in Australia to run dry.

A Tennessee grandmother spent 108 days in jail—lost her home, car, and dog—because a facial recognition algorithm said she looked like someone committing fraud 1,200 miles away. Police relied solely on the software and arrested her without basic verification. Angela Lipps, 50, was locked up for nearly 6 months due to an algorithm—and since she was unable to pay bills—she lost everything she owned.

Starting April 14, 2026, Lotto Max is changing, making it harder to win the jackpot. To add insult to injury, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is framing the changes as a player benefit, citing increased “overall wins”—a statistic driven by improved odds of smaller, non-jackpot prizes.

The Ontario Court of Appeals has ruled that Ontario cities can reject political ads stating “Woman: An Adult Female” because it might offend people—and that this is a valid reason to limit speech in a public space. The ruling comes after the city of Hamilton rejected an ad placed by the Christian Heritage Party of Canada, alleging that the ad, which simply contained the definition of “woman,” was somehow discriminatory and denied transgender persons’ identity and experience.

The Carney government’s Heritage Minister, Marc Miller, just claimed that independent media outlets are somehow “illegitimate” and should be avoided in Canada. His remarks followed a briefing note stating that the cabinet is relying on the CBC and its $1.6 billion annual grant to promote “social cohesion.”

An explosive new investigation links declassified US government documents to the spread of modern Lyme disease. The findings, reported by physician-scientist Dr. Robert Malone, point to Cold War biological weapons research, where a large-scale tick experiment that included the release of 282,800 lone star ticks along major bird migration routes in the late 60s, appears to have helped Lyme disease spread and become one of today’s fastest-growing vector-borne illnesses.

Since the 1920s, farmers have been spreading “biosludge”—treated sewage—on food crops as a “cost-saving fertilizer.” Now, new research from the University at Albany is finding that biosludge fertilizer can load crops like corn and lettuce with “forever chemicals” that don’t break down and can linger in the human body for years. PFAS are now found in the vast majority of human blood samples and have been linked to cancer, fertility issues, and immune disruption.

According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, “The CBC costs taxpayers more than $1.4 billion per year. That money could pay the full-time salaries of about 7,000 police officers plus 7,000 paramedics instead of going to a state broadcaster with abysmal ratings. In its latest ratings report, CBC News Network posted an audience of 1.7%. That means about 98.3% of Canadians are choosing to watch something other than CBC’s national news channel.”

Former CBC host Travis Dhanraj says he was removed from his program after raising concerns about internal bias, alleging centralized editorial control and limited viewpoint diversity. Now pursuing a human rights complaint, Dhanraj claims certain political perspectives—particularly Conservative voices—were quietly filtered out, while the network publicly maintains its commitment to balance. 

Officials allegedly detected a serious stroke signal—tied to Pfizer’s bivalent booster—then kept it under wraps while continuing to push more shots. A US Senate subcommittee led by Ron Johnson has released thousands of pages of HHS records suggesting the Biden administration was aware as early as November 2022 of a statistically significant risk of ischemic strokes following Pfizer’s bivalent booster. According to the findings, rather than promptly warning the public, officials continued promoting the shots while internal discussions unfolded behind closed doors.
