Olympic committee sorry for offending Christians – but are they really?

The International Olympic Committee has apologized for the 2024 Paris Olympics' controversial opening ceremonies, which included a Last Supper depiction featuring drag queens and a "fat acceptance" activist playing the part of Jesus. The organizers insist that no mockery or offence was intended, but True North's Andrew Lawton points out that Christians are pretty well the only religious group anyone would dare make such a performance about. Also, Canadian Taxpayers Federation Alberta director Kris Sims went by Edmonton City Hall to take a stock photo and was shocked to find the area around it filled with garbage and urine. Cities across the country are falling into similar states with no one seemingly doing anything about it. Plus, a new report from the Aristotle Foundation finds that Canada and the United States have the most permissive approaches – making younger patients eligible for "invasive surgeries and/or potentially irreversible and medically harmful dispensation of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones."
