The survey found that 53% of privately sponsored Syrian refugees had been able to find work in Canada, compared to just 10% of government sponsored refugees.
That means that nine in 10 Syrian refugees sponsored by the Trudeau government are unemployed. […]
When it comes to government-sponsored refugees, chosen for resettlement by the Trudeau government, 83% had no knowledge of English or French.
Only 17% of Trudeau’s government-sponsored refugees possessed basic skills in one of Canada’s official languages.

But 100% will vote Liberal, and can thus be considered a success.

American politics is now all about one thing: impeachment

The left’s anti-Trump rhetoric has been catastrophist from the beginning. The initial travel ban represented a constitutional crisis. So did the firing of acting attorney general Sally Yates. And so, of course, did the cashiering of FBI Director James Comey.
Harvard law professor Laurence Tribe, once frequently mentioned as a potential Democratic Supreme Court pick, wrote a piece a couple of weeks ago entitled, “Trump Must Be Impeached.” Must doesn’t allow for wiggle room. Tribe maintains that “impeachable offenses could theoretically have been charged from the outset of this presidency.”
Left-wing New York Times columnist Charles Blow writes about “the critical and increasingly urgent question for many: Will Trump be impeached – or indicted – and when? The anticipation has produced a throbbing anxiety. There is so much emotional investment in Trump’s removal that I fear that it blinds people to the fact that it is a long shot and, in any case, a long way off.”

Actually, I think they’re moving past impeachment to just killing him.

Merkel’s G-20 Climate Alliance Is Crumbling

German Chancellor Angela Merkel had actually thought that Canada’s young, charismatic prime minister, Justin Trudeau, could be counted among her reliable partners. Particularly when it came to climate policy. Just two weeks ago, at the G-7 summit in Sicily, he had thrown his support behind Germany. When Merkel took a confrontational approach to U.S. President Donald Trump, Trudeau was at her side.
But by Tuesday evening, things had changed. At 8 p.m., Merkel called Trudeau to talk about how to proceed following Trump’s announced withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement. To her surprise, the Canadian prime minister was no longer on the attack. He had switched to appeasement instead.

Related: To accomplish its planned 80%-95% share of renewables by 2050, says Vahrenholt, Germany would have to triple its wind production to 155 gigawatts – which means one 200-meter-high turbine every 2.7 km in the entire country.

Imported “rescues” bring canine influenza;

In March 2017, canine influenza H3N2 was identified in dogs in Los Angeles (LA) County. Most of the dogs were imported from Asia and seen by a veterinarian after arrival into LA County. The dogs showed signs consistent with influenza such as coughing, sneezing, fever and nasal discharge. Testing of two dogs revealed a strain of canine influenza H3N2 commonly found in Asia.

And now this highly contagious, imported disease has found its way into the highly travelled dog show world, with events being cancelled and owners facing thousands in veterinary costs to treat it.
As politicians enact anti-breeding legislation written by left wing activists, and enforced by the unaccountable extremists that have taken over humane societies, dogs are arriving from all over the world to supply the virtue signalling “rescue” market, even restocking shelters that would otherwise be near empty.
Sound familiar?

New York Times;

Fossils discovered in Morocco are the oldest known remains of Homo sapiens, scientists reported on Wednesday, a finding that rewrites the story of mankind’s origins and suggests that our species evolved in multiple locations across the African continent.
“We did not evolve from a single ‘cradle of mankind’ somewhere in East Africa,” said Philipp Gunz, a paleoanthropologist at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, and a co-author of two new studies on the fossils, published in the journal Nature. “We evolved on the African continent.”

Except for the space aliens currently in control of the Democratic Party.
