Dan Pujdak: By failing to stand against antisemitism, our leaders have shown they stand for nothing

… Is there a political cost to being associated with hate? No, it turns out, as members of Parliament like Jenica Atwin and Ahmed Hussen continue to sit as senior members of the diversity-championing Liberal caucus despite being involved in antisemitic controversies.

Should Canada fund organizations that plausibly aid terrorist activities? Yes, according to our government, which restored financial support to UNRWA despite evidence that some of the organization’s employees participated in the October 7 massacre.

The Palestinian Tradition of Celebrating the Death of Jews

Palestinians have a custom of celebrating in the streets every time Israel is attacked or a Jew is murdered by terrorists.

The latest Palestinian celebrations took place on October 1, 2024, when Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel. The celebrations occurred even though some of the missiles fell in Palestinian areas in the West Bank and the only person killed was, ironically, a Palestinian man in the city of Jericho.

Canada’s peacekeeping commitments have plunged to an all-time low

In 2015, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declared that Canada was “back” on the international stage; not long after, his government promised to “renew Canada’s commitment to United Nations peace operations,” and pledged to send significantly more personnel. That’s important for UN peacekeeping, because it is only effective when countries from around the world contribute skilled military and police officers as part of broader political efforts to resolve the underlying causes of conflicts. And of course, many conflicts cry out for military observers and peace implementation forces around the world right now.

Our armed forces are no longer fit for purpose, lets look after Canada.

A 2021 Chinese interference analysis stalled with Trudeau security adviser

A 2021 analysis of China’s foreign interference operations intended to spark discussion among senior government figures did not make it to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or cabinet ministers, the Hogue commission heard Monday.

The report, produced by the Privy Council Office (PCO) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) and delivered in January 2022, was stalled for months in the office of Trudeau’s then-national security adviser, Jody Thomas.

Speaker silences Poilievre for a day after he accused foreign minister of pandering to Hamas

Speaker Greg Fergus ruled Tuesday that Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre won’t be allowed to speak in the House of Commons for the rest of the day after he refused to withdraw his claim that Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly is pandering to Hamas.

In question period Monday, Poilievre asked Joly to condemn what he called “genocidal chants from hateful mobs” during recent protests over the Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza. Police have opened investigations into alleged hate speech following some rallies and charges have been laid in some cases.

Milton threatens to reach max limits, sparking calls for a new Category 6 designation for hurricanes

Hurricane Milton is threatening to reach known maximum limits with wind gusts already topping 200 miles per hour — leading to calls for a new Category 6 designation for such a historic superstorm.

“This is nothing short of astronomical,” Florida meteorologist Noah Bergren said late Monday as Milton reached sustained winds of 180 mph and “gusts 200+ mph.”

Canada has become an immigration irritant for the U.S.

The federal government is finally acknowledging that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has been too lenient in issuing visas, and that our asylum system is being abused.

Last month, Immigration Minister Marc Miller admitted that Ottawa needed to do a “stronger job” of preventing people who had been given visitor visas from taking advantage of our overly generous policies. He had previously acknowledged that the immigration system had gotten “out of control” and he’s called overseas police checks “unreliable.” He has also said it was “alarming” that increasing numbers of international students were claiming asylum to stay in Canada, and he has drawn attention to India, “where we are seeing people exploiting the visa system.” India was already the main source country for both permanent and temporary residents in Canada; it is now also a source of migrants who are “not legitimate asylum claimants,” according to Mr. Miller.


Mass immigration = Vote harvesting

The Conventional Wisdom That This Is a Close Election Is Starting to Fray

The vice presidential debate last week between Senator Vance and Governor Walz may have been the most important debate in many years, apart from the one that led to the withdrawal of President Biden. Mr. Vance completely debunked the theory that he was “weird,” harsh, an extremist, or anything but an intelligent, accomplished, courteous, and thoughtful person.

It is only fair also to put in a good word for his opponent. Instead of the extreme leftist installing tampon dispensers in male washrooms in Minnesota’s high schools or dismissing advocates of completing the southern border wall with nonsense about its vulnerability to “30-foot ladders,” he seemed a decent person doing his best with the impossible task of trying to move away from the record of the outgoing administration without obviously rebuking the incumbent vice president who recruited him as her running mate.

For Pierre Poilievre, the conflict appears to be the point

Some amount of conflict is inherent to democracy — particularly so in a political system that prominently features His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition. And hyperbole has probably existed for as long as humans have been able to communicate.

But has any Canadian politician in recent memory embraced rhetorical conflict as enthusiastically as Pierre Poilievre?

For the Conservative leader, there seems to be no such thing as overstatement. And he seems to feel it’s almost always worth going on the attack.


I am doubtful of Poilievre on the matter of mass immigration and it is likely I will vote PPC on that issue alone however he reaches Canadians for a very simple reason. 

After years of Trudeau’s lies, the scandals, the graft, his lunatic obsession with changing the weather, and of course the destruction of our economic and social stability through his ruinous mass immigration policy Canadians have found a voice speaking in their defence.

Trudeau has never “listened” to Canadians instead he has governed like a high school tyrant, a ‘mean girl’ and a really stupid one at that.

If there is conflict in the land  you can trace it back to Trudeau.

Trudeau’s media is resorting to tone policing because Poilievre resonates with Canadians and they fear the loss of press subsidies.

Kamala Harris on What She Would Do Different from Biden: ‘There Is Not a Thing that Comes to Mind‘

Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that she would do nothing differently than President Joe Biden.

Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “As Vice President you worked closely with President Biden for almost four years. He was here on our show and he said there wasn’t a single thing that he did that you could not do. What do you think would be the biggest specific difference between your presidency and a Biden presidency?”

More than half of names on Victims of Communism memorial should be removed over Nazi, fascist links: report

The Department of Canadian Heritage is being told that more than half of the 550 names on the Memorial to the Victims of Communism should be removed because of potential links to the Nazis or questions about affiliations with fascist groups, according to government records.

As originally planned, there were to be 553 entries on the Ottawa memorial’s Wall of Remembrance.


Communism killed well over 100 Million, making Hitler look a piker.

Was it really necessary to include any names at all?

John Ivison: We have strayed from freedom of expression into terrain where rape and murder are lionized

On Saturday, a self-proclaimed journalist named Samira Mohyeddin posted on X that “tens of thousands” of people were marching in Toronto to mark the one-year anniversary of “Israel’s relentless bombardment and genocide” in Gaza. The new journalism fellow at the University of Toronto’s Women and Gender Studies Institute, and former producer of CBC’s The Current, made no mention of what had prompted the “relentless bombardment.”

I can’t presume to speak to Mohyeddin’s personal politics, but her post reflects the view held by a distressingly large number of young Canadians who have formed an unholy alliance with Palestinian activists.
