A Vancouver man charged with trafficking girls from around the Lower Mainland and forcing them into the sex trade is facing 36 criminal counts after he was arrested for breaching his bail conditions by trying to contact one of his alleged victims.

The changing approach to immigration Down Under has been highlighted in a new survey that shows that just over 50 per cent of voters agree that Australia has changed beyond recognition and “sometimes feels like a foreign country.” The Australian Population Research Institute (TAPRI) conducted the polling. The independent organisation claims the results are driven by a rapid change in Australia’s ethnic and religious make-up and concerns over quality of life.

But many pointed out that those same rights aren't afforded to many humans in the country. The robot, named Sophia, was confirmed as a Saudi citizen during a business event in Riyadh, according to an official Saudi press release.[...] She said that people didn't need to be concerned about the rise of artificial intelligence as depicted in Blade Runner and Terminator. “You’ve been reading too much Elon Musk and watching too many Hollywood movies,” she told Mr Srkin.

Josh Walker travelled to Syria in 2016 to fight against the terror group Islamic State – yet it led to him being investigated, found to have downloaded a DIY explosives manual years earlier and ultimately prosecuted on terror charges.
