Wtf

Nearly three years after the October 7 massacre, the Nova community is launching a new concert series, “NOVA Live Concert.” For the first time since that fateful morning, the survivors, including all those taken hostage, will appear together at a single event. The series follows “We Will Dance Again,” the mass gatherings at Tel Aviv’s Yarkon Park that drew tens of thousands. This time, the Nova community and the company are building a different format, weaving together electronic music, trance, rock and Israeli mainstream through one-off collaborations between artists sharing a single stage. The organizers describe the project as another step in the community’s healing, framing music as the language that has always bound it together—a space of memory, connection and resilience rather than mere entertainment. Personally, I’m not much for large festivals—but it’s hard not to be moved. Living in the modern state of Israel, one is forever caught in the air of the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. No less moving is the fulfillment of a far more recent vow, every bit as prophetic: We will dance again.

“The strike, unclaimed by any country or group, serves as a warning the Suez Canal might not be a safe alternative for oil exports”

@cbcwatcher Wow

CBC News believes it has determined the Canadian intern accused of spying at NATO's military headquarters. " Biwei Zhang... She also goes by Claire and Katina." "She's in her 30s and is fluent in English, French and Mandarin... She's built an impressive resume over the past decade with working at high profile spots like the World Trade Organization in Switzerland and the European Space Agency in Italy. She's also worked for the Canadian Space Agency as a systems engineer in the satellite operations department and before that as an economist with Stats Canada." "But CBC News has uncovered something that may have been overlooked. A Federal Court of Canada ruling in 2019. Zhang applied for a job with the CBSA, submitting two forms under slightly different names, giving her two cracks at the application exam." "The Public Service Commission determined that was fraud, a decision upheld by a 2024 judicial review" Gary Anandasangaree has some explaining to do @gary_srp

@stephen_taylor Not a great few days for the pro-Palestinian movement that is now inextricably linked to terrorist groups.

There are more direct ways to donate to IDF reservists than this.

@kshahrooz @SMohyeddin 🎯🎯🎯

By what possible definition is this "extortion", @SMohyeddin ? You don't really believe that it's extortion for a donor to withhold donations to a cause with which they disagree. But you say it because saying offensive things about Jews who disagree with you is normalized now.

Important multipartisan consensus on the failures of @CMHR_News’ controversial Nakba exhibit. Heritage Minister Miller has condemned the museum for its egregious errors in curation and governance. Conservative Shadow Minister for Heritage is also sounding the alarm. 👏👏👏

Prime Minister Carney was right to acknowledge Canada’s antisemitism crisis. This is now a global media story and requires Canada to work with other Western democracies to confront this scourge.

Thirty years ago, Canada made Israel its first free-trade partner outside North America because it recognized that it would advance our national interests. Read my latest in @financialpost on why this partnership matters even more than ever, especially in AI and defence tech.

@WMichaelOsborne Thanks @WMichaelOsborne, for amplifying. It is critical that Canada has the right strategic partners to compete in a world increasingly defined by the convergence between national security, technological innovation and economic resiliency.

“As Prime Minister Mark Carney and his ministers travel the world in search of new markets and investors, Israel offers something few countries can: a fast-growing economy built on cutting-edge technology, rapid commercialization and a young, highly innovative workforce.”

Glad to see Canadian media beginning to recognize that these aren’t isolated regional conflicts, but part of a broader global war. It's a point that @dansenor & @BretStephen_NYT made in the aftermath of October 7 terror attack. Worth listening to again: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/fro…

The rise of Islamist terror in Germany which is becoming the frontline in a wave of jihadist terrorism thetimes.com/article/67933f…

These aren’t regional conflicts. This is a global confrontation between democracies and authoritative, totalitarian regimes.

Brava, Robyn.

It looks like it's on
