Alex Gough had an historic night at the Olympic Sliding Centre, winning Canada’s first ever Olympic medal in luge.
Four years after her heart-breaking fourth place finish at Sochi 2014, Gough captured bronze in the women’s singles event at PyeongChang 2018, finishing the four runs in a total time of 3:05.644.
Leftist elites in Canada have launched a campaign to normalize Sharia law – the illiberal and often barbaric set of laws enforced in Islamic dictatorships.
In Ottawa, the Trudeau government was in the middle of what feels like a show-trial designed to make “Islamophobia” illegal – a term the government itself has failed to define.
After the controversial M-103 was passed in Parliament, leftist media and the Trudeau government insisted that the critics were wrong, that it’s just a motion – symbolic! – and that M-103 will have no legislative impact.
When the Heritage Committee began its hearings, however, critics who expressed concern over the motion were proven right.
One of the first experts to testify implied police should prosecute Canadians over social media posts that police deem offensive or incorrect. Yes, prosecute.
Orwell would be rolling in his grave.
More than just Orwellian, these official suggestions are reminiscent of theocratic tyranny. That’s not Canadian law. That’s Sharia law.
In the background of this charade, the mainstream media joined in and is doing its part to support Trudeau’s agenda.
The article quoted a Liberal MP and several spiritual leaders who defended M-103, without providing balance or skepticism over the motion or towards Sharia .
The article explained how Sharia is already in Canada, that it only governs religious practices and only applies to people inside the Muslim community.
It included a quote from an advocate saying that those who oppose M-103 and fear Sharia are motivated by “bigotry, plain and simple.”
Pretending Sharia is already here and no big deal is incorrect; vilifying those who oppose it is both dishonest and dangerous.
Back in 2003, the Islamic Institute of Civil Justice proposed that Muslims have their own tribunals and a parallel legal system – Sharia law – in Ontario.
It was then Muslim activists who took a stand and launched campaigns against these proposed Sharia courts.
Iranian-born Homa Arjomand argued that Sharia tribunals would undermine women’s rights and “push back Canadian law by 1,400 years.”
“Keep Sharia Law out of Canadian judicial system,” Sun columnist Tarek Fatah wrote at the time, arguing that religious tribunals trespass upon the public domain.
Activist Nasrin Ramzanali said that if these Sharia courts materialized, “I (would) feel threatened here.”
Ultimately the Liberal government in Ontario rejected the bid to allow Sharia courts.
We shouldn’t pretend that Sharia already governs in Canada; we should fight against it at every opportunity.
That’s because Sharia is not just a set of religious rules, it is a totalitarian ideology that enforces a sexist and outdated worldview.
Sharia insists that there is no separation between mosque and state, and that Islamic rules dictate both the private and public lives of the people.
Sharia law replaces Canadian law, it doesn’t live alongside it – but that’s not where the trouble with Sharia ends.
Even if Sharia only applied to Muslims in Canada, how would we feel about a set of laws that permits a man to beat his wife? How about a legal system that allows a man to divorce his wife simply by saying the word “divorce” three times aloud?
Sharia is not consistent with our way of life in Canada – despite what The “Liberals” in Government and the CBC want us to believe.
@gservator , why do I feel like painfully stupid would be the best way to describe the government under Justin Trudeau?
Really though, I don’t want to make fun of it too much because I know that you guys are actually living that reality up there and that shit is fucking terrifying. Sometimes I don’t understand how the West I ever got where it is today.
Yeah I mean it would be dumb of me to say I live in a shitty country. But the amount of REALLY stupid shit that keeps on happening is beginning to make me rather nervous. Trudeau is messing us up and I’m not really surprised.
What was he even doing with himself before he became prime minister? He was a part-time Drama teacher and something else, but I don’t know what it was because I’m a dumb American. I don’t blame you for being nervous, the amount of shit coming out of Canada probably makes most of this continent pretty nervous.
I think he was. I hear people say that a lot.. It’s just frustrating shit. It’s embarrassing. Our government caves into so much
Yeah, I’ve noticed. And why? Because Daddy was prime minister too? Or was it his grandfather?
Father
I thought so. I guess I’m not that dumb of an American after all.
So answer me this, is the Trudeau family the Canadian equivalent of the Bush family in that it’s basically a dynasty?
No, I’d say worse since the Trudeau’s were best friends with dictators, would cripple the economy each time they got in and glorify the Anti west message each time aswell.
Yeah, that’s definitely worse. It definitely scared me when I saw him talking about how much he loves Castro. That’s not the guy you want running a western country. That’s a guy you want to send over to Cuba.

As far as I can see, the anti-Trudeau ads I saw when I was in Canada around the Women’s World Cup saying he was too young were correct. They were also pro-Harper, which I disagree with, but.. Trudeau doesn’t really appear to know how to run a country or have much political experience.
actually, it’s been psychologically proven that bronze winners are happier than silver winners! silver winners see themselves as being “so close” to gold, while bronze winners are just happy they won a medal. so any silver medalist isn’t as happy as a bronze medalist!
