Kylie Minogue, Graham Norton and Ricky Gervais play a round of questions from Elizabeth’s Sex Board Game. And it’s absolute chaos 😂 Graham Norton: We’ve selected a few, questions from Elizabeth’s sex board game. Ricky Gervais: I'm already nervous. Elizabeth Banks: All right. So the question here say How do you signal to a partner that you want to have sex? Ricky Gervais: Unbelievable 😂 Ricky Gervais: Just the set-off of a buzzer. (buzzing noise) Elizabeth Bank: second question this one's called "The Name Game." What have you named your private parts? Rickey Gervais: Uhmm.. Pamela Elizabeth Banks: This is really nice one for you, Graham. Ready? Graham Norton: Yes. Elizabeth Banks: What song... what song always puts you in the mood? Graham Norton: Oh, S Club 7, Reach.

@ezralevant It's a Ottawa Liberal (and their paid for media) talking point. Poilievre is doing and saying all the right things, needs to just keep going and must ignore the noise!

I admit I don't know as many people on Parliament Hill as these three lobbyists do. But I spent 13 hours yesterday driving around southern Alberta, talking to 500 conservatives in Okotoks, Lethbridge and Medicine Hat. Not a single one even suggested replacing Poilievre.

Hébert: "The excuse 'we don't know if there's anyone to take over' -- give me a break. If the conservative movement is able to produce premiers and has been able to produce a solid cabinet under Stephen Harper, surely there are people who can lead that movement in a more compelling way than Pierre Poilievre currently is."

England would have given Spain a much better match than dirty cheating Argentines. Argies still punching Spaniards after the final whistle!

Russians fired about 40 ballistic missiles at Kyiv in just 53 minutes – a record. The aggressors attacked civilian targets that don't make any military sense. Russia is a terrorist state and nothing else. Russia is not a country or a society – it's merely a poison to the world.

In university i was taught that climate change would cause hurricanes to increase and world to dry up. There has been no increase in hurricanes, nor droughts. Also, heatwaves were more frequent and hotter in the 30’s. #realdata Watch the whole video at @WatchGorillaSci

🗣️Luis Enrique: I coached Lionel Messi at Barcelona, and today I can no longer stay silent. Messi is undoubtedly one of the greatest footballers I’ve ever worked with. His talent is unquestionable. But greatness should never be used to justify what many fans now see as controversial decisions. What I’ve witnessed in this World Cup has left me frustrated and disappointed. The officiating, the inconsistency, and the perception that certain teams receive favorable treatment are damaging the credibility of football. For me, Cristiano Ronaldo’s legacy was built on hard work, discipline, consistency, and merit. Whether you support him or not, his achievements speak for themselves without needing controversy to define them. As a coach, I will never support anything that compromises the integrity of the game. Football should be won on the pitch—not through decisions that leave millions of fans questioning the fairness of the competition. I’d rather lose with honor than win surrounded by controversy. FIFA must protect the integrity of football before fans lose faith in the beautiful game.

In 1989, the United Nations warned the world that we had just 10 years to stop global warming or face disaster. A senior UN official said entire nations could be "wiped off the face of the earth" by the year 2000 due to rising sea levels. They predicted mass crop failures, waves of eco-refugees and oceans rising by up to three feet, enough to drown low-lying islands like the Maldives. It's now 2026. The deadline passed more than a quarter of a century ago and none of the doomsday predictions came true. Sea levels are still rising at the same slow pace, about 1.8 mm a year, unchanged since the 1800s, since the end of the Little Ice Age. There's been no acceleration, no runaway melt and no sign of the apocalyptic flooding the UN promised.

You wouldn't know it by listening to the current news cycle, but global wildfire burn area is tracking to be the lowest on record this year. Although weekly data only goes back to 2012, the available data paint a different picture than the one legacy media has been.

Robert Fife is The Globe and Mail's Ottawa Bureau Chief. He decided to go on air, and lie. “[It’s a split of] Net profits or net income. After all operating expenses have been paid.” But Carney said net revenues. Not profits. He has not seen the deal signed. So why lie on CBC? And David Cochrane allows him to continue with the lie. This is propaganda. Full blown. They aren’t even hiding it anymore. @tobi was right - THANK GOD FOR THE NATIONAL POST. This is incredibly shocking and disturbing.

England playing out of their skin. Rice, Konsa, Saka, Rashford. France totally outclassed. Players seemed to be ignoring Tuchel at the break. Tragic to think what might have been if we’d attacked like this against Argentina.

We live on a largely pleasant, yet historically cool world, where average temperatures hover around 15C. This current baseline includes the 1.4C rise since the start of the Industrial Revolution 250 years ago. We are rarely reminded Earth's climate is roughly 10 degrees 'colder' than the long-term global average of 18C to 26C across hundreds of millions of years. A warmer climate would not be a crisis, and never has across the history of biological life. Humans and our unique, symbolism-based culture evolved against this cooling, drying backdrop of the Late Cenozoic Ice Age, which has lasted 34 million years since the glaciation of Antarctica. We are currently in its coldest phase — the Quaternary glaciation — which has endured for 2.58 million years. Almost all human civilisation - and our acute sense of modernity - arrived during a brief, 11,700-year warm interglacial oasis known as the Holocene. This demonstrates that we are an 'ice age adapted' species, as are all modern mammals. Yet the current climate crisis is built around an institutional dogma, which ignores this vast geological history, operating as if the earth works just like a greenhouse, which it doesn't. It's all complex. While orbital cycles dictate the 'macro' climate epochs of the Earth over millennia, the current debate focuses entirely on the 'micro' trend of the last 250 years. Our planet is constantly responding to the orbital aberrations identified by Milutin Milanković. Over the short term, this changeability comes from natural variability in solar radiance, ocean currents, atmospheric water vapor and volcanic activity; over the deeper long term, it is guided by the ponderous tectonic creaking of continental plates. The world's oceans, water vapor and clouds contribute 50% to 70% of atmospheric warming. The geological record reveals that only after the oceans — especially the Southern Ocean — have warmed for centuries does dissolved CO₂ outgas from the deep waters, a process unfolding over 5,000 to 10,000 years. To focus exclusively on a trace gas like CO₂ is to ignore the true scale and power of these natural systems. Furthermore, the narrative completely missed the biological utility of this gas: NASA satellite data has shown a significant increase in global green foliage over recent decades, largely driven by elevated CO₂ levels acting as an airborne fertiliser. This green wave, alongside booming global agriculture, was entirely unanticipated by backers of the crisis agenda. Today, this narrative runs directly counter to thermodynamic reality: we simply cannot run a modern economy without high-density fossil fuels, a baseline power that wind and solar cannot replicate. To pretend otherwise is to forget our place in the natural world, where we live largely by chance, and only as invited guests — not as Overlords.

MIT Professor Emeritus of Meteorology Dr. Richard Lindzen has spent decades inside the heart of the climate establishment. He helped write IPCC reports and he says the science is nothing like the apocalyptic headlines. Quote: "Even the IPCC, if you read Working Group I, the actual science section, doesn't support these doomsday claims." Lindzen says the scary narratives pushed by politicians and the media are built on distortion, not data. And even inside the IPCC, many scientists know it.

@BBCSport Hmmm, well that's clearly the problem. Everyone (not even expert coaches) could see that Tuchel made changes that tried to defend 1-0 against the reigning World Champions for 30 mins. It was never going to work!

This image is dead on. 11 years of ONE party. ONE agenda. And Canada is declining on every single front that actually matters to regular people. It’s NOT Trump. It’s NOT some orange man living rent-free in their heads. It’s Trudeau. It’s Carney. It’s the Liberals who’ve been in power the entire time — racking up record debt, flooding the country with people faster than we can build houses, and watching groceries, rent, and everything else explode while paycheques stay flat. Look at the results: • Housing prices went from unaffordable to completely out of reach for an entire generation. • Groceries that used to feed a family now require a second job just to cover. • Paycheques that used to stretch now get eaten alive by taxes, carbon charges, and inflation they created. • Opportunity for our kids is disappearing — youth unemployment sitting at recession levels while they tell us “the economy is fine.” This isn’t bad luck. This is the direct result of 11 years of Liberal priorities: globalist spending, virtue-signalling policies, and zero accountability for the mess they made. They broke it. They own it. New leadership. Real change. Canada First. We’ve had enough of the decline.

Canadians have had enough. Across the country, I’m hearing the same message: people are tired of rising crime, repeat violent offenders, and a justice system that puts criminals ahead of victims. I’ll keep taking your concerns directly to Ottawa and fighting for tougher laws, real accountability, and safer communities. Stay tuned for details on upcoming town halls in your community.

🚨The carbon market has officially collapsed Mark Carney just admitted it himself: “Theoretically the carbon price is over $100 right now, but the carbon price in the actual markets has fell to about $20.” The rest of the world has stopped pouring money into the climate finance black hole. Only one country is still writing the cheques — Canada Net Zero zealotry isn’t saving the planet — it’s bankrupting taxpayers while the market votes “no confidence” Falsely linking every forest fire to “climate” while pushing failed carbon markets is misinformation Reality is catching up. Time to follow the actual data, not the theoretical fantasy @MarkJCarney
