Poverty & discrimination hit hardest in tough times — and in Canada, the most vulnerable always pay the heaviest price. We can look away… or we can act. At the @SappaniFdn, we choose action. We help BIPOC girls in Canada break cycles of poverty through education. In our 5th year, we’ve partnered with @CNIB to create an annual award for BIPOC girls with vision loss pursuing post-secondary dreams. Meet our 2025 recipient: Keerthana Kelly Blind + hard of hearing, yet unstoppable. CICE student ✓ Church & community volunteer ✓ Mentor to others ✓ Pure resilience. She reminds us exactly why this work matters. If your company has a CSR program, ask yourself: where can your support change lives the most? #Education #GirlsMatter #BIPOC #DisabilityInclusion #PovertyReduction

I'm in love with this sentence: “Forgive yourself for not knowing earlier what only time could teach.”

When these folks applied for their study permits, they signed a legal undertaking to leave Canada at the end of their authorized stay. There was no caveat about potentially applying for different visas in the future. Their visas were issued on the basis of that commitment, including evidence of establishment factors that they submitted to persuade an IRCC visa officer that, on a balance of probabilities, they would in fact leave at the end of their authorized period. Each of them further confirmed their undertaking to respect the terms of their visa when their admission was processed by a CBSA officer at a Canadian port of entry. I hope that they had a fruitful period studying in our beautiful country, and will now demonstrate respect for Canada, its fair immigration laws, and their solemn commitments, by returning home. Doing so will not preclude them from applying for permanent or temporary residency in the future. But overstaying in Canada will make them inadmissible, and will be a barrier to obtaining a visa in the future. They need advisors who will tell them this inconvenient truth, rather than charging them huge fees for false promises. Happily for any of these students who might be from India: it is a beautiful, richly diverse English speaking country founded on a magnificent, ancient civilization, with the fastest growing major economy on Earth, first rate post secondary institutions, and a lower unemployment rate than Canada. Opportunity abounds! We should be honoured that so many people would like to become Canadian. But our ability to welcome and successfully integrate newcomers depends on having a well managed immigration system with manageable levels, where people respect our fair & generous rules.

@Yaduvam @DalrympleWill This is a good book that has done comparisons of iconographies between Cambodia and TN. There is some good materials out there( including Williams book ) and so much left to be explored on Hinduism/ Buddhism in indo- Himalayan - south east Asia corridor.

The resemblance between these temples is incredible. The Shore Temple (725 CE) in Mahabalipuram, India and the Gedong Songo Temple (800–900 CE) in Java, Indonesia.

The only thing that will work in India is naming and shaming along with fines. Fine these wrong-side drivers, spitters, road pissers, and litterers, but also have giant digital screens and put their faces on a TV segment every day for today’s desh drohis. Every channel across India should do it. India will soon become litter-free with traffic rule followers.

Do we Indians even deserve good infra? Another heartbreaking case of zero civic sense

This guy ❤️. No journalist in India or Asia takes on politicians , criminals of all parties and sides like him. If you doubt press freedom in India, follow him taking on corrupt gangster politicians head on.

@saranstm 99.99% of these videos are staged but yes feel good ones.

😊 made me smile. The owner deserves driving this car.

The right thing to do. Set an example so that other politicians don’t do it . Well done @fordnation

“A very secondary thought was, ‘boy, this is actually kind of a backhanded compliment to MLI. If they’re going to steal somebody’s identity, they want it to be someone who’s going to give them real credibility and authority in the Canadian context, and they chose us.’” – @brianleecrowley, Founder and Managing Director, Macdonald-Laurier Institute In a new @globeandmail article, Brian Lee Crowley discusses how a hostile foreign intelligence agency cloned the Macdonald-Laurier Institute’s website in an apparent attempt to exploit MLI’s credibility and trick Canadians into sharing sensitive information.

BREAKING: 60+ US Senators support bill threatening upto 100% tariff on India and others for buying Russian oil BUT America exempts its own uranium purchases from Russia and European allies for buying Russian natural gas

This is brilliant , Infaxt India should create a $10B fund pool to support Indian companies for start up and growth to be invested as equity or debt in emerging areas like EV, AI, space , and anything as simple as electronics manufacturing that can help India reduce imports and increase exports. Even provide tax sops and states and centre should collab to promote corruption free entrepreneurship .

🚨🚨Indian govt to invest Rs 200 crore in Ather Energy's Rs 2,500-crore fundraise alongside founders, Hero MotoCorp The Government of India will invest Rs 200 crore in electric two-wheeler maker Ather Energy's proposed Rs 2,500-crore fundraise, according to company's BSE filings on July 15.

@ShivAroor shop.savikalpa.com/products/migra… if it is recurring one worth trying this in India.

Migraine 😓🫩 Back at 9PM tomorrow 🙏🏽♥️

That applies to politicians of all parties who are equally corrupt and illiterate and the educated or equally or more corrupt . Look at IAS, IPS officers. Modi has made several efforts towards reforms in India but results not there and lot more can be done esp to fight corruption .

@VJsapps More than half of Modi's MP's are illiterate imbeciles who only get elected because of sectarian and caste based politics. As long as India will have these groups of people as MP's who are not even high school graduates, mediocrity and rampant corruption is all it'll get. Period.

Not Modi, not Gandhi, Joseph Vijay is the first to openly fight corruption in India by firing and arresting his own party men for corruption. This is the biggest revolution India has seen! While we are seeing corruption in Canada, Doug Ford can learn how to handle corrupt ministers from this Indian premier!

@Iyervval Machi you are long overdue for a cooking channel as food critic . This looks yummy :)

Today I made Karachi Biriyani in support of the CJP protests. Given Dipke, Dahiya & Das are stuffing themselves 24/7 at the protest, I thought I’d make a whole degchi of it and eat it all by myself - following in their footsteps. #EatathonAgainstPradhan

One more reason for global investors to look at Tamil Nadu 👇🏽 While the BJP goes out of its way to defend its violent, corrupt politician in Mumbai (thanks to @ShivAroor exposing and fighting it), Joseph Vijay is cleaning up corruption with hundreds suspended and fired, creating a wave of terror against corruption for the first time in India!

We need a Canada First law to break barriers in interprovincial trade. We have been saying this for decades with nothing getting done. It’s time to tax provinces that refuse to buy Canadian products first, but it will never happen because nobody dares tell Quebec to buy Alberta oil over the foreign ones they buy now.

@LaureenHarper Nice stirrups :)

Lovely ride to Dyson Falls today on Boone. This little waterfall is special to me as this is where my grandfather had his saw mill. My grandmother used the cave behind the falls to keep food cold.

This slippers is selling out in canada . Imagine if this was a from Asian countries . Hell will break loose .

From attempts to remove our website to sanctions by the Kremlin and blacklisting by Beijing, MLI has repeatedly been targeted for standing up to Canada’s adversaries. Early in June 2026, the Macdonald-Laurier Institute was informed by Canadian security and law enforcement officials that an organization linked to a hostile foreign intelligence service had cloned our website. We take it as a compliment that our adversaries continue to take aim at us. We’re not scared, and we have every intention of continuing our work to call out threats to Canada. While we are quite prepared to expose ourselves to such risks as a price of working to protect Canada’s interests, we want our readers and followers to be safe. Please be aware of the fraudulent misrepresentation occurring and be on guard against any unsolicited communication allegedly coming from MLI.
