Anand welcomes Turkish counterpart as two countries explore nuclear deal

For the record – back in the 60s or so, Canada did the same with a little place called India. And India promptly used the first reactor we built for them to develop their own nuclear weapons program. They have since iterated out their own version of the CANDU since we decided them building nukes with our tech wasn’t nice and sanctioned them for years. They said, “Thanks for the tech, and we’re going to keep building nukes, thank you very much.”

And since India built a nuclear weapon, Pakistan decided it needed its own. And they did. Then in 1998, both nations set off test bombs, after the first set in the 60s or 70s or so.

So your mileage may vary.

Former national security adviser John Bolton pleaded guilty Friday to illegally retaining classified information from his tenure in President Donald Trump’s White House, exposing himself to potential prison time for putting top secret information into private emails and chat messages and sharing them with members of his family.

During a hearing before U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang, Bolton admitted to the allegations in an 18-count indictment brought against him last October, but under a plea deal with prosecutors he entered a guilty plea only to a single felony charge of willfully retaining classified information.

That charge is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, but under the terms of the deal, Bolton, 77, can withdraw his plea and go to trial if Chuang decides a sentence of more than five years is warranted. Bolton has also agreed to a fine of $2.25 million.

Prosecutor Tanner Kroeger declared that, during 17 months as Trump’s top national security aide in the first term, Bolton “abused his trust” by forwarding more than 1,000 pages of daily notes detailing his activities to his family members in apparent preparation for a book the hawkish foreign policy adviser later published.

Way too late for that: Beijing offers a poisoned chalice. Carney shouldn’t drink from it

Burton says Canada is a “bellwether” country in Beijing’s subversion of developed economies. Before Carney’s election, Canada was already the most deeply compromised member of the G7, and since January’s Canada-China strategic partnership was declared, the Chinese Communist Party’s influence operations in this country have expanded exponentially, Burton told me. “By exploiting Canadians’ natural anger over Washington’s betrayal, the CCP have successfully overseen a campaign of calculated deceit. It’s a classic deflection tactic: by keeping the public’s focus squarely on American betrayal, they effectively defuse and neutralize mainstream concerns about the PRC’s own escalating campaign of subversion, espionage, and transnational repression in Canada.

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and while swapping out the desk fan for a permanent cooling system might seem like an appealing solution following this summer’s record-breaking heatwave…

… installing one without proper authorisation can carry serious repercussions. Breaching planning regulations – even unintentionally – can leave homeowners having to submit a retrospective application.

Should this be turned down, the council can issue an enforcement notice demanding the air conditioning unit be taken down. Defying this notice is illegal and, if disregarded, could lead to prosecution.

Fitting a permanent air con unit without planning permission can also have considerable implications should the homeowner decide to put the property on the market. To finalise the sale, sellers must be able to demonstrate they obtained the required approvals. Without this, homeowners will need to either lodge a retrospective application or remove the alteration entirely.

More: “Air-con engineers told The Telegraph that they had been called out to remove perfectly operational units worth thousands of pounds across London.”

Newfoundland parents just got the memo: Once your kid turns 12, the government says you’re no longer automatically entitled to know what’s in their medical records.

A June 19 letter from NL Health Services quietly ended automatic parental access to children’s health information. From age 12 to 15, parents now need the child’s permission to see the records. At 16, the teenager takes full control.

Sarah James Furlong, a concerned parent, took to social media in a bid to raise awareness of the apparent government assault on parental rights. Furlong is calling on parents to contact the Minister of Health, Lela Evans, to reverse the decision.

“I respect children’s rights and understand the importance of privacy,” Furlong said in a Facebook post. “However, I believe parents have a fundamental responsibility to protect, support, and advocate for their children—and that responsibility doesn’t end when a child turns 12.”

The move fits a pattern. Newfoundland and Labrador already lets students in Grade 7 and up change their names and pronouns at school without parental consent. Now the same province is extending that logic into medical records.

You bet it fits a pattern.
