“I think it’s really, really clear where Jews of conscience stand [on Palestine].”
Canadian Party Leader @avilewis explains to @mehdirhasan why he identifies as anti-Zionist and believes most North American Jews feel similarly.

@MarkJCarney @ryangrim Maybe try sanctioning them? Cutting off trade? You know. Something tangible

Today, I spoke with the President Herzog of Israel.
I reiterated that the appalling treatment of civilians aboard the Gaza-bound flotilla was unacceptable, and that respect for human dignity must be upheld everywhere, at all times.
I underlined the imperative of de-escalation in the Middle East, and the importance of a genuine resumption of dialogue among all parties. Progress toward peace and stability in the region must remain the clear, shared objective.

Not the same party whatsoever Mike.
Mine was fiscally responsible, attuned to balancing public policy, resisting ESG/DEI and ensuring migration was sustainable
Please don’t equate balance and pragmatism with the current cult that styles itself Liberal

This is verified and real footage of the IDF committing a double tap massacre against rescue workers in Lebanon. Israel is clearly giving orders to kill ambulance crews or this would not keep happening. The absolute evil behind this is breathtaking.

The moment Zionists massacred a team of rescue workers in a double tap. First they killed a father and his daughter, then bombed a medical team that arrived on the scene with their ambulance

I have just received information from my officials which details the appalling abuse of Canadians who were detained in Israel.
These Canadians have now arrived in Türkiye. Global Affairs consular officials on the ground are ensuring that they receive urgent medical care as required so that they can return home as soon as possible.
Canada unequivocally condemns the grave mistreatment of Canadians in Israel. Those responsible for this egregious abuse must be held accountable. We will continue to provide additional information as it becomes available.

Brutally honest condemnation of Calandra's Min of Ed
"The minister has said repeatedly that financial mismanagement by trustees is behind the deficits at many Ontario school boards. To fix that, Calandra sidelined trustees, imposed supervisors at eight boards, and limited the future role of trustees.
And yet, the AG’s report obliquely offers an alternative reason for school-board shortfalls. It says that 46 of the province’s 72 school boards spend more money on special ed than the province provides. The total in 2023–24 was $397.9 million. That’s about double the total of school board deficits.
It’s reasonable, then, to conclude that the root cause of school-board deficits is provincial underfunding of special ed."

Hold up… so politicians can in fact be investigated?
Funny how that never happens to any Ford MPPs.

What does terrorism mean to you? If it’s no double-tap killings of paramedics, journalists, and today a 12 year old girl, then what is it?
Westerners, where is your humanity?

Le Canada est solidaire du peuple libanais et défend l’intégrité territoriale du Liban.
Je me suis entretenu avec le président Aoun plus tôt aujourd’hui. J’ai condamné l’invasion illégale du Liban par Israël ainsi que les attaques incessantes du Hezbollah contre Israël. J’ai exprimé mon soutien sans réserve aux efforts déployés par le Liban pour désarmer le Hezbollah et j’ai souligné l’importance de maintenir un véritable cessez-le-feu et de créer les conditions permettant aux civils déplacés de rentrer chez eux en toute sécurité.

Is a $4 million home to a union leader under a numbered company that was incorporated days before the deal related to the union’s endorsement of Doug Ford for the first time?
Just coincidence that the same group received 27 million from Ford’s insider-friendly skills dev’t fund?

Amusing to see some Conservative reactions to this piece. Their conclusion, naturally, is that it’s all Canada’s fault, as though the U.S. didn’t begin this tariff war in the first place.
What the piece actually shows is Canada trying to defend its auto industry and preserve a rules-based trade framework while negotiating with an administration that views tariffs and uncertainty as leverage, not temporary measures.
If Canada made a mistake, it’s perhaps that Joly should have kept her powder dry while Stellantis was cutting jobs in Canada and pushed harder to finalize the deal that was reportedly close. But then again, autos, a hugely important sector for Canada, remained unresolved and were not part of the deal, so not sure if that would have made sense.
But the broader conservative reaction online seems to be: Canada shouldn’t protect its industries or workers? What precisely would they have done differently in power?
