Canada Pledges Hundreds of Drones to Ukraine
Canada will donate more than 800 SkyRanger R70 drones to Ukraine, Canadian Defense Minister Bill Blair announced on Monday. Kiev has relied heavily on commercial and military UAVs during its conflict with Russia, which will enter its third year on February 24.
“These drones are going to help Ukraine’s front line troops assess targets and threats quickly with accuracy and effectiveness,” Blair stated at a press conference in Toronto.
The R70s can be used for reconnaissance missions and are capable of carrying payloads of up to 3.5 kilograms.
The UAVs are a part of the $370 million aid package pledged to Kiev by the Canadian government in June 2023. Overall, Ottawa has provided $1.78 billion worth of assistance since February 2022, including tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery.
On February 6, Ukraine created a separate military branch – the Unmanned Systems Forces – tasked with operating ground, aerial and seaborne drones.
Ukraine’s former commander-in-chief, General Valery Zaluzhny, wrote an op-ed for CNN this month, where he highlighted the crucial role of UAVs. Drones “provide the best way for Ukraine to avoid being drawn into a positional war, where we do not possess the advantage,” the general stressed.
Moscow has repeatedly stated that foreign military aid will lead to further escalation but will ultimately not change the course of the conflict.
Last week, Russia captured Avdeevka, a fortified town near Donetsk that was held by Ukraine since 2014. The seizure of the town was Moscow’s most significant victory since December 2023, when Russian troops captured another Donbass stronghold – Maryinka – after months of fierce fighting.

EU Now Codifying MIGRATION QUOTAS to Flood Europe With Illegals
A new set of regulations and policies on the European Union’s “sustainable migration and asylum process” called “New Pact on Migration and Asylum” has just been approved by the European Parliament Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) – opening up the continent to up to 75 million new migrants.
However, a lot of European conservatives are unhappy with the Parliament’s decision because of some key provisions that have been proven ineffective. In fact, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has warned against the said set of policies, saying it will force countries like Hungary to accept migrants or face a severe financial penalty.
“The next question is how many they will force on us. Now they are deciding that. So, they are creating rules that give Brussels the right to say how many migrants they will distribute,” Orban said last year. “So, several countries have indicated that they do not agree. We do not want to implement it. In the end, we are facing a very unpleasant turn of events here.”
National Rally’s parliamentary wing leader Marine Le Pen even said that the pact is an organized plan of submersion of Europe and the nations that compose it. “It is a real pact with the devil that will lead to the suicide of Europe,” she declared during a press conference at her party’s headquarters in Nanterre in 2020. She was the first to predict that a pact such as this would bring millions of illegals into Europe. (Related: Be careful what you wish for: European commissioner wants EU to welcome ONE MILLION MIGRANTS each year to offset declining workforce.)
The new regulations indicated that member states can choose between accepting asylum seekers or paying a financial penalty that costs up to €25,000 ($26,927.50) per migrant. Orban said that Western European nations should be scrambling to accept more migrants, not distribute them to countries like Hungary. And yet, the bloc claims that member states that do not accept migrants will be penalized to help subsidize the cost of these migrants.
Robert Gonczi, an analyst at Hungary’s Migration Research Institute, told Magyar Nemzet that what the EU is doing is restructuring or even abolishing the Dublin system. They are establishing a new solidarity system, the exact limits of which have not yet been defined, he said. “This would look something like each state determining for itself how it could contribute to the management of migration at the EU level. However, there is a worrying element to this, as it would presumably include the distribution of migrants within the EU’s borders,” the analyst pointed out.
Gonczi added that the so-called quota migrant system has been in the European political discourse since 2015, but it does not seem to be the most effective solution and cited a case study by the Migration Research Institute as an example, wherein three Baltic states had previously accepted quota migrants, but that 90 percent of them disappeared from the three countries within a year and later turned up in Sweden, Germany and other Western European states.
“The redistribution system could also create intra-EU flows from the countries where these migrants have been relocated to the countries where they want to leave, as typically the destination countries have not changed,” he stressed. However, it would now be necessary for other EU countries to welcome these migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, he added. The real problem is that the reinforcement of the EU’s external borders would be less or not at all, which is what is needed.
EU migration pact pushed through despite opposition
Critics have been questioning why the said pact has pushed through despite various opposing views. According to reports more than 50 civil society organizations wrote a letter to negotiators in the European Commission, the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament ahead of the final negotiations on the EU Pact on Migration on the eleventh hour back in December to warn against risks. But everything fell on deaf ears.
“If adopted in its current format, it will normalize the arbitrary use of immigration detention, including for children and families, increase racial profiling, use ‘crisis’ procedures to enable pushbacks, and return individuals to so-called ‘safe third countries’ where they are at risk of violence, torture and arbitrary imprisonment,” they argued, adding that the pact will betray the spirit of existing EU work, such as the EU Action Plan on Integration and the EU Action Plan Against Racism which recognizes the intersectional impacts of racism and the specific vulnerability of migrants and refugees. “The Pact, as it stands, risks perpetuating discriminatory practices within the very structures meant to uphold justice and protection for all,” the letter added.
Still, it was railroaded through. Final negotiations were concluded in the absence of Shadow Rapporteurs and those that did not hold rapporteurship on any of its files, such as the Greens and the Left, were left out altogether.
According to a report on Euractiv, in 2021, the Legal Service of the Council of the EU issued an opinion stating that the pact was legally impossible due to its inclusion of Schengen elements alongside non-Schengen ones. But this was ignored until the last minute when it became clear that the whole set of rules could be thrown out by the courts. “This trend of acting first and asking questions later goes beyond the pact. The recent Instrumentalisation Regulation on migration, which proposed significant infringements on rights in hazily-defined cases of foreign states exploiting migration, was rejected in the Council after a damning Substitute Impact Assessment,” the report included.

Drug-Use, Robberies, & Public Sex: Cali Public Library Forced To Close Due To Rampant Illegal Activity
In case you’re wondering whether or not libraries still have use in the age of the internet, they do. And we have Gavin Newsom’s state to thank in helping the nation get reacquainted with their new purpose.
That use appears to now be a designated place for drug use, robberies and public sex. At least, that was the case at the Contra Costa County Library’s Antioch Branch in California, according to a new NY Post article.
The city of Antioch is about 45 miles northeast of Oakland and is home to about 115,000 people.
That library has been forced to close its doors as a result of the illicit and illegal activity.
In a statement, the library commented: “During the closure, the Library will be working to implement further security measures so we can reopen as soon as possible.”
One representative for the Contra Costa County Library System said: “We’ve also had drug activity and drug use both inside the library and on library property.”
“People having sexual intercourse inside the library or on property in full view of patrons and staff. We found bullet casings on library property,” she continued.
One Antioch resident told the Post: “No one in the City of Antioch, including the police chief, was informed of safety concerns by Contra Costa County regarding the library.”
“We apologize for the short notice and the inconvenience but the safety of our patrons and staff is a top priority,” the branch said in a statement.
It was ultimately the county’s decision to close the library, the report concluded.
When it reopens, the library will have a 2nd security officer, repaired fencing and upgraded security cameras.

CNN Calls for Limits on How Often Americans Can Travel Abroad: “Carbon Passports May be the Answer”
Ordinary folks like you and I are still doing too many things and going to too many places for the globalists’ liking, so CNN‘s Ross Bennett-Cook, a lecturer at the School of Architecture + Cities at the University of Westminster in London, has a solution: “carbon passports” that limit each person to no more than X-amount of travel in a given year.
According to Bennett-Cook, the end of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “pandemic” has brought with it a resurgence in public travel that he feels is generating too many so-called greenhouse gases, which he believes “are driving the climate crisis.”
Tourism, Bennett-Cook insists, “is part of the problem” because of all those jet fumes that allegedly “warm” the planet and create fictitious problems like “boiling oceans.” The only apparent solution, he says, is carbon passports that restrict travel for the world’s non-elite.
Taylor Swift and other celebrities will still be allowed to travel on their multiple private jets everywhere they go, but middle-class families will have to stay home for the rest of the year once they reach their carbon limit.
(Related: This is not the first time that CNN has called for implementing “carbon passports” to stop Americans from traveling.)
No more cruises, either
Right now, the average American supposedly produces a 16-ton “carbon footprint” every year, which Bennett-Cook says is “one of the highest rates in the world.” For the United Kingdom, the average is 11.7 tons of carbon per year, while the world at large averages four tons of carbon per year.
The Paris Agreement for the climate says that each person’s average carbon footprint needs to drop to under two tons by 2050 in order to stop the climate from changing. This equates to just two roundtrip flights between London and New York per year, and nothing more.
By 2040, travel group Intrepid Travel predicts that carbon passports will be the norm, though they could come sooner than that due to the passage of certain laws and restrictions in some areas.
Another tactic to deter the non-elite from traveling too much is to increase airfares to make travel unaffordable for the average person. Only the rich will be allowed to gallivant around the world at will while everyone else is stuck at home to keep the planet “safe” from carbon.
In Belgium, laws have already been passed that charge extra taxes for short-haul flights, as well as for flights that use older aircraft. These taxes are aimed at deterring poor people from flying while encouraging them to take “cattle car” trains instead.
France went a step further by banning all short-haul flights for trips that can be made by train in two-and-a-half hours or less, with Spain soon expected to follow suit.
Germany is probing the matter further as 70 percent of its citizenry supposedly indicated in a YouGov poll that they support climate restrictions just so long as there are alternative modes of transportation such as trains or ships.
Commercial airplanes are not the only thing the climate brigade wants the non-elite to stop using. Cruise ships are likewise slated for elimination after a European Federation for Transport and Environment investigation claimed that cruise ships pump four times as many sulfuric gases into the atmosphere than all of Europe’s 291 million cars combined.
“Holidaymakers should prepare to change their travel habits now, before this change is forced upon them,” Bennett-Cook warns.
“Dear citizen: please wear this tag, implant this chip and shackle this ball and iron to yourself, eat bugs and avoid meat, vaccinate frequently, and do not venture alone into the internet, and do not dare think for yourself,” wrote someone on X about what else the climate brigade will soon demand.
The climate change ruse is about destroying freedom and depopulating the planet. Learn more at GreenTyranny.news.
