PM Mark Carney says Canada needs millions of households to switch to electric heat pumps, arguing it will lower energy costs and strengthen the country's "net zero" transition. He added: "When we master energy, we master our destiny."

Mohamed Bakkali, the logistical brain behind the Paris and Bataclan attacks that killed 130 and injured hundreds more, has been allowed penitentiary leave by a Brussels court. The court highlighted his “calm and respectful” behaviour in prison. If he continues his “good” behaviour, he could potentially be freed indefinitely long before the end of his sentence in 2040.

🇮🇷 Where is Mojtaba Khamenei? More than 2 months after becoming Iran's Supreme Leader, he has still not been seen or heard from publicly. Iranian officials are now releasing a trickle of updates to project he's well and in control. His president says he held a nearly 2.5-hour meeting with him, and a cleric close to his office says his injuries from the February 28 attack were limited to a kneecap and back wound. But analysts are divided on whether he's actually calling the shots. Some are saying a small clique of Revolutionary Guards commanders, including negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, are effectively running the show. To avoid Israeli assassination attempts, messages to and from Khamenei are reportedly being passed by hand, with no electronic communication devices. Trump, for his part, already called it: "They have no idea who their leader is." Source: Financial Times

The British politicians who took a knee for George Floyd have not even made a post about Henry Nowak.

An 18-year-old kid gets stabbed in the street. He’s running for his life, begging for help, and instead of saving him, the police handcuff him while he bleeds out because the attacker claimed “racism.” They let him choke on his own blood. No urgency. No humanity. Just cold, ideological policing. Months later? Still no names. Still no suspensions. Still no accountability. Meanwhile, the same UK police have arrested over 12,000 people for social media posts. They move at lightning speed to jail citizens for tweets and online comments, yet they can’t even name or discipline the officers who allegedly let a stabbing victim die in handcuffs on the street. This is the definition of two-tier policing: aggressive against ordinary people speaking online, but protective when it comes to their own failures and protecting the narrative. The British people deserve real justice, not another cover-up. Justice for Henry Nowak.
