Muslim Canadians express anger, concern after killing of Sikh leader

Muslim advocates in Canada have expressed anger and concern at allegations that India may have been involved in the killing of a Canadian Sikh leader, stressing that Muslim and Sikh Canadians have long supported each other.

Last week, a diplomatic dispute escalated between Ottawa and New Delhi after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said his government was investigating “credible allegations of a potential link” between Indian government agents and the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

Justin’s greatest accomplishment has Canada divided into warring sectarian factions. Muslim, Hindu, Sikh – Leicester here we come.

CHARLEBOIS: Grocery chains, federal Liberals sizing up ‘shrinkflation’

Two issues have been particularly vexing for Canadian shoppers at the grocery store: Volume discounts, especially for seniors and those who live alone, and the phenomenon known as “shrinkflation.”

Over the last 12 months, shrinkflation has garnered significant attention due to substantial price hikes in grocery stores. Fortunately, some grocers are now taking action.

A typical bag of chips is about 80% air nowadays.

Anthony Rota resigns as Speaker after inviting former Ukrainian soldier with Nazi ties to Parliament

Liberal MP Anthony Rota is stepping down as House of Commons Speaker after inviting a Ukrainian veteran who fought in a Nazi division to Parliament — a dramatic turn of events that will be welcomed by MPs on all sides who said the embarrassing incident was unforgivable.

Rota’s resignation will take effect at the end of the sitting day on Wednesday.

Trudeau’s unwillingness to apologize speaks to Canada’s diminishment on the world stage

As this newspaper went to press – remember when we said things like that? – Anthony Rota had not resigned as Speaker of the House of Commons. This is surprising.

After all, Mr. Rota inadvertently invited a man who served in an infamous Waffen SS unit during the Second World War to attend Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s address to the House of Commons, Friday.

City officials in Metro Vancouver have described signs advertising a “whites-only” social group for mothers and children as “vile garbage.”

On Sunday, social media posts about the “Whites-only Moms and Tots” group meant for families of European descent began popping up on Instagram and X, formerly known as Twitter, with many condemning the posters as racist.

I’m thinkin Hoax.

Nord Stream explosion: A maze of speculation

It was 2 a.m. on September 26, 2022, when seismic monitoring stations in Denmark, Sweden and Germany registered a weak earth tremor.

At the same time, workers at the pipeline operator Nord Stream registered a sharp drop in pressure in the 1,200-kilometer (745-mile) gas pipes that connect Russia and Germany. As the sun rose over the Baltic Sea, giant bubbles of methane gas could be seen from the air near the Danish island of Bornholm. They were coming to the surface from about 80 meters (260 feet) underwater. Further tremors followed. Soon it became clear: Several sections of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines had been blown up.

A key component of German and European energy infrastructure had been destroyed.

India-Canada Clash Should Be a Wake-Up Call

For their own sake, Western nations must contend with the politics of the large and growing diaspora communities they host.

… Canada, in particular, has had a long history of tolerating supporters of militancy abroad. Even after 9/11 built pressure on all Western allies to root out supporters of terrorism, Ottawa resisted calls to clamp down on local financial support for Hezbollah.

Canadian communities also provided much of the financing for Sri Lanka’s Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam — who, famously, invented suicide bombing. A lot of that money was raised, according to human-rights activists, by intimidating Canadian citizens who still had relatives in Sri Lanka.

Now tensions have begun to flare domestically as well. Last year, violence between Hindus and Muslims broke out in the post-industrial town of Leicester, while Sikhs and Hindus clashed in the middle of downtown Melbourne in January. Two years earlier, a Hindu man who had been deported from Australia for allegedly attacking Sikhs was given a “hero’s welcome” when he returned to India.

How Did Former Nazis End Up in Canada?

On Sept. 22, Canadian members of Parliament gave a standing ovation in the House of Commons for a former member of the Waffen SS, a Nazi division accused of war crimes during World War II.

The incident, which has now taken centre stage in Canadian politics, happened during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit to Parliament as Russia’s war against Ukraine rages on. The man in question, Ukrainian-Canadian Yaroslav Hunka, was called “a Canadian hero” by Speaker of the House Anthony Rota and was also thanked for his military service.

‘Speaker should listen to members of the House and step down’: Melanie Joly

OTTAWA — Senior Liberals are now calling for House Speaker Anthony Rota to step down for honouring a man who fought for a Nazi unit during the Second World War in the House of Commons.

Speaking on her way to a cabinet meeting on Tuesday morning, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said the incident was completely unacceptable and an embarrassment to the House of Commons. She said it is time for him to leave his post.

They’re eating their own.

John Robson: The Irresponsible Ignorance of Applauding a Nazi Soldier Extends Well Beyond History

If you were to compile a short list of basic political do’s and don’ts, “Don’t applaud a Nazi” would be pretty high up, right? Che Guevara T-shirts are cool. But swastikas? Don’t go there. So how did our entire House of Commons get it wrong?

Well, my own list of political maxims, more strategic than tactical, would include “Study history.” Or nowadays “Study history, don’t erase it.” And it’s pretty clear that none of them realized if someone fought the Russians during World War II he wasn’t on our side. Unless he was Finnish or Polish before 1941, an aside on which I would not want to quiz these Solons.
