🩺 Canada moves toward 3-year training for family doctors
The College of Family Physicians of Canada wants to increase the length of family medicine residency from two years to three as a way of preparing doctors for more complex patients. Residency is the clinical specialty training that new physicians must do after they obtain their medical degrees; they can't practice without completing it.
The College did consultations with established family doctors, medical schools, students and residents, as well as looked at programs in other countries, to conclude two years is not enough time to learn the core skills, plus subjects such as elder care, new technologies and virtual care, mental health and addictions. The first three-year program is expected to roll out in 2027.
The plan is raising concerns it will increase the shortage of family doctors at a time when six million Canadians don't have access to one.

🇨🇦🇺🇦 Nazi-linked veteran received ovation in Parliament during Zelensky's visit
Just after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered an address in the House of Commons on Friday, Canadian lawmakers gave 98-year-old Yaroslav Hunka a standing ovation when Speaker Anthony Rota drew attention to him. Rota introduced Hunka as a war "hero" who fought for "Ukrainian independence against the Russians."
Members of Parliament from all parties rose to applaud Hunka.
Hunka was a member of the Waffen-SS Galicia Division or the SS 14th Waffen Division, a volunteer unit that fought on the side of the Nazis.
On Sunday, different Canadian Jewich organizations demanded an apology for honoring a man who was part of the division that “was responsible for the mass murder of innocent civilians with a level of brutality and malice that is unimaginable.”
In a statement late Sunday afternoon, Rota said he recently became “aware of more information which causes me to regret my decision” to recognize Hunka. He said he takes full responsibility for this mistake.
🔹Instead of gender ideology classes, we should increase history hours. We could use a few more lessons on World War II.

New federal party takes shape
The interim leader of Canada's newest fledgling federal party says he wants it to be an option for people who are tired of both the governing Liberals and the Conservatives, who he says are guilty of "rage farming."
New Brunswick Independent MLA Dominic Cardy made the comment as the group Centre Ice Canadians announced its plans to form a new party called Canadian Future. Cardy said the group, which had first been called Centre Ice Conservatives, decided to change its name after months of consultation on the idea of launching a new party.
A group of moderate Tories used the group as a vehicle to push for change during last year's Conservative leadership race, arguing their party should focus on topics such as affordability rather than issues arising out of the COVID-19 pandemic.
They eventually broadened their scope, swapping out "Conservatives" for "Canadians" in the noscript so as to include Liberals who were interested in the push for a more centrist message in Canadian politics.
Cardy said that the new party plans to hold a convention next year and hopes to run a slate of candidates whenever the next federal election rolls around.

🇨🇦🇺🇦 Jason Cherniak, one of many, who awarded Yaroslav Hunka with a standing ovation, now writes he "feels sick to his stomach" upon learning that Hunka was a volunteer member of an SS unit.
As a Jewish lawyer from Richmond Hill, Cherniak wrote on X he "can hardly imagine a more embarrassing moment" than "unknowingly applauding a Nazi soldier."
He rushed to find someone to blame, saying that "with Putin’s mischaracterization of Ukraine and it’s Jewish president as a Nazi state, this will create a lot of ammunition for further disinformation around the world."
Cherniak described Speaker Anthony Rota's decision to invite the former Nazi soldier to Parliament a "mistake."
"Lots of people wouldn’t know enough history to be careful of such things," he writes.
Unfortunately, politicians who give billions of dollars to other countries don't actually know history well enough.

Back in 2022, Canadian Parliament member Yaara Saks claimed that “honk honk” was code for “heil Hitler”
“How much vitriol do we have to see of ‘honk honk’ – which is an acronym for ‘heil Hitler’ – do we need to see by these protesters on social media?” Sask asked, speaking in the House of Commons.
The Freedom Convoy protesters used “honk honk” as an unofficial slogan and often honked during demonstrations. Thus, they became Nazis in the eyes of Yaara Saks.
These days everyone is accused of being a Nazi except the actual Nazis.

RCMP to pack up, tear down facilities at Quebec's Roxham Road
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are taking down their facilities on Quebec's Roxham Road, an unofficial border crossing that served as a pathway into the country for countless asylum seekers.
In March, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. President Joe Biden announced that they were closing a long-standing loophole in the Safe Third Country Agreement. The agreement calls for asylum seekers to apply for refugee status in the first of two countries they enter. Prior to March, the deal only applied to official ports of entry.
"Following the modification to the Safe Third Country Agreement, the number of migrants that cross through Roxham Road has dwindled and our presence here is no longer necessary," said Sgt. Charles Poirier.
Poirier said the removal of its facilities on Roxham Road means the RCMP will no longer have a constant physical presence on Roxham Road. It will instead rely on regular patrols and camera surveillance.
The spokesperson said the facilities at Roxham Road were meant to last three to five years. The decrease in foot traffic and the considerable cost of upgrading the facilities played major roles in the RCMP's decision to tear them down.

🩺 Four in 10 child patients face unsafe spinal surgery wait times in Canada: report
Four out of ten child patients in Canada are facing unsafe spinal surgery wait times, according to a new report.
Published Monday, the report also estimates that delaying access to pediatric spinal surgeries costs the Canadian health-care system at least $44.6 million.
The report focuses on the spinal condition scoliosis to highlight the broader issue of prolonged pediatric surgery wait times following the COVID-19 pandemic. 2,778 children are currently waiting for scoliosis surgery in Canada.
While the clinically recommended time frame for paediatric spinal surgery is six months, the report estimates that only 38 per cent of pediatric scoliosis patients are having surgeries within that period in Canada.

🇨🇦🇮🇳 Sikhs stage protests against Indian government over murder
Canadian Sikhs staged small protests outside India's diplomatic missions on Monday, a week after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said there may be a link between New Delhi and the murder of a Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar .
About 100 protesters in Toronto burned an Indian flag and struck a cardboard cut-out of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi with a shoe. About 200 protesters also gathered outside the Vancouver consulate.
In Ottawa, fewer than 100 people gathered in front of the Indian High Commissioner's office (embassy) in the capital. They waved yellow flags marked with the world "Khalistan", a reference to their support for making India's Punjab region an independent state for Sikhs, a cause Nijjar campaigned for.
"We are really thankful to Justin Trudeau... We want no stone left unturned to get to the bottom of this cowardly act," a protester said in Ottawa.

🇨🇦🇺🇦 Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly says that House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota should step down after taking responsibility for the invite of a Nazi soldier to Parliament.
Meanwhile, the House of Commons attempted to make everyone forget their mistake. Government House leader Karina Gould stood up on Monday afternoon to ask for unanimous consent to adopt a motion calling to strike “from the appendix of the House of Commons debates” and from “any House multimedia recording” the recognition of Hunka.
All parties agreed that the moment is embarrassing and should not have happened. But the Conservatives argued there is a difference between regretting an embarrassing moment and erasing it completely, as they refused to consent to Gould’s proposition.
Trudeau probably wishes he had a time machine.

Poilievre taunts CBC, hints at turning $400M in real estate into housing
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre taunted the CBC on X by hinting that he would convert the Crown Corporation’s over $400 million worth of real estate holdings into housing for Canadians.
“It warms my heart to think of the families that will move into a home they can afford, at the former headquarters of the CBC” wrote Poilievre on X.
The comment is also likely a nod to Poilievre’s promise to defund the CBC if elected Prime Minister as well as his recently unveiled home building plan, which includes a review of federal properties and a pledge to sell off 15% of certain holdings to developers.
Poilievre’s comments cited a recent response by the CBC to a question on the order paper in the House of Commons by Conservative MP Adam Chambers revealing how much real estate wealth the taxpayer funded broadcaster has amassed in recent years.

Border Agency to renovate detainee facility for ‘high risk’ migrant offenders
The Canada Border Security Agency plans to convert a wing of its immigration detention centre into “high risk” cells as they will soon no longer be able to rely on provincial prisons to house dangerous migrants.
The director-general for the CBSA, Carl Desmarais, said that a section of the border force’s immigration detention centre in Laval, Que., would soon undergo renovations to install 48 beds for “high risk” migrants. Once completed, the agency plans to make similar renovations at detention centres in Toronto and Surrey, B.C.
Initially, high risk migrants were detained in provincial prisons throughout the country, however that arrangement is set to expire next week.

Foreign students being tricked into thinking they can get permanent residency by studying in Canada
Foreign students, some of them confused by false promises from education consultants, are being misled into thinking that studying at Canadian postsecondary schools is a guaranteed route to remaining permanently in the country, senators and immigration experts are warning.
Senators warn that there are not enough permanent residence spots to cater to the rising number of these students coming to Canada.
Although attending a Canadian college or university can help a foreign student gain permanent residence here, success is not assured. Under a program known as Express Entry, Canada’s immigration system assigns scores to would-be permanent residents based on their work experience and other factors, and only the highest ranked are invited to apply.
The senators’ report calls for federal action to stop education consultants – who are paid by Canadian colleges to recruit students abroad – from overselling the ease of getting Canadian work permits after graduation.
In some cases, international students are denied these permits because their colleges are not “designated learning institutions,” meaning the schools aren’t on a government list of approved institutions.
