Anti-Semitism

Free speech is not a numbers game

As far as breaches of the peace go, Dominic Cardy’s effort last week looked pretty tame. The former New Brunswick cabinet minister and current independent MLA was in Toronto with his wife when he noticed the ruckus from hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters thronging the city’s Yonge and Dundas intersection.

Mr. Cardy said in an interview that he then decided to exercise his own right to free expression by launching a one-man counterprotest, striding into the crowd and shouting “Free Palestine, from Hamas.”

And for that, he was arrested for breach of the peace by police, handcuffed, jailed for two hours and then released.

We have an antisemitism Czar. Her name is Deb. Deb is concerned at the silence she is hearing. Over the years I attended many pro-Israel protests and it resulted in myself and allies being labeled Islamophobes and racists by members of the Jewish community and other of our so called leaders in government and the press. Some of those accusers made careers virtue signaling their anti-racism and became proponents of DEI and CRT. The White working class was demonized as innately racist and deserving of  humiliating re-education efforts.

This demonization was supported by our elites who used it to silence dissent and steamroll the mass immigration of incompatible cultures as they reworked Canada’s demographic into the malevolent multicultural nightmare we find ourselves facing today.

On Oct 7 our accusers were among those who sent out cries for help. Now Deb wonders where everybody is.

Deb needs to watch this.

Batya Ungar-Sargon on antisemitism & the demonization of the working class by Jewish leadership: “The American working class is our bulwark against becoming like Canada, becoming like Europe”

Batya Ungar-Sargon on antisemitism & the demonization of the working class by Jewish leadership: “The American working class is our bulwark against becoming like Canada, becoming like Europe”

This clip will begin at roughly the 34 minute mark.

The segment I posted yesterday was edited to exclude the reference to the antisemitism of Canada and Europe.

I maintain my belief that the “silence” of previously reliable support noted by the Jewish community stems at least in part from the foolish embrace of racist policies like DEI and CRT by Jewish leadership.

Batya Ungar-Sargon is the first from the Jewish community to speak out about the folly of that choice that I am aware of.

I don’t believe she has a Canadian counterpart but I would love to be introduced to one if such a person exists.

As she notes of America’s leadership I suspect our Swells are wondering why the Trannies and BLM get a spot on the DEI hierarchy of victimhood and they don’t.

It’s a coveted designation as it allows “Open Season On Whitey” without repercussions.

She is not wrong in her assessment of Canada given our streets are daily given over to the Muslim mob and their useful idiots on the left.

How many of you have been labelled “islamophobes” or “racists” or “white supremacists” by the so called “anti-racists”, “Thought leaders” and journalists of the Jewish community and their allies?

Over the years all those types have taken their shots at me for having the audacity to speak out against Islam and mass immigration.

Barbara Kay: France’s long history of antisemitism hangs over Paris Olympics

On Sept 5-6, 1972, over the course of 20 hours during the Munich Olympic Games, 11 Israeli athletes and coaches were tortured and murdered by the terrorist group, Black September, an affiliate of the Palestine Liberation Organization. For 49 years, this darkest of episodes received no official Olympic commemoration. The victims were eventually honoured for the first time at the opening ceremonies of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

Report warns of dramatic rise in antisemitic incidents in Canada in 2023

OTTAWA – Jewish leaders in Canada are warning of a national crisis as the number of hateful incidents targeting Jews doubled in one year.

B’Nai Brith Canada says it documented nearly 5,800 incidents of antisemitism in 2023, including acts of violence, harassment and vandalism.

In 2022 there were fewer than 2,800 such incidents.

There were 77 violent incidents reported in 2023, more than three times the 25 that were recorded in 2022.

Bill C-63 (Online Harms Act): Who’s Really Pushing This Agenda?

Bill C-63 (Online Harms Act): Who’s Really Pushing This Agenda?

Where did Bill C-63 come from?

Lobbying is a reality in politics. Special interests groups lobby money to get certain agendas pushed, and to get money for their causes. This is hardly news. Searching the Federal Lobbyist Registry, the following names come up:

  • Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA)
  • National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM)
  • Women’s Legal Education & Action Fund (LEAF)
  • YWCA Canada
  • Friends of Canadian Broadcasting

The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, CIJA, has been prolific in lobbying Ottawa for changes to the Human Rights Act, and to the Criminal Code. This group has pushed for stricter definitions around so-called hate crimes and antisemitism. Their recent efforts include making Holocaust denial punishable by prison time, and removing religious protections. See here and here.

The National Council of Canadian Muslims, NCCM, specifically lists Section 13 of the Canadian Rights Act. They want laws against Islamophobia, and condemn “white supremacy”. Other efforts include anti-racism initiatives, such as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

Something is off when both the “Official Muslims” and the “Official Jews” are both pushing to undermine our right to free speech.

Canada’s dangerous slide into antisemitism

Antisemitic acts have been occurring in Canada in ever-increasing volume since the Oct. 7 massacre of 1,200 Israelis by Hamas terrorists, and the kidnapping of 250 more.

In the weeks that followed Israel’s military response to those crimes, a Jewish school in Montreal was twice fired upon, leaving two bullet holes. A Jewish delicatessen in Toronto was fire-bombed. An Indigo bookstore in Toronto was vandalized, because the chain’s founder is Jewish.

Is it possible that institutionalizing anti-white hate in our schools is a bad thing?

Is it possible that after years of government approved anti-White indoctrination the hatred of other groups such as Zionists is made publicly acceptable just by declaring them “White”?

Nah. That’s White Supremacist talk!

Trudeau says some of the Pro-Palestinian protests cross the line into hate, harassment

Pro-Palestinian protests that include expressions of hatred or harassing behaviour cross a line, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday.

Trudeau told a press conference in Toronto that he’s heard from too many members of Canada’s Jewish community who have seen protests at synagogues and community centres and who now feel unsafe.

Nobody can be indifferent to the suffering in the Gaza Strip during the Israel-Hamas war, and Canadians have a right to protest and make their anger heard, he said.

We are witnessing in our streets Muslims and Jews  fighting for world view supremacy.

This is the inevitable tribal warfare that results from the poisons of multiculturalism and bad immigration policy.

Trudeau lied when he stated “Hateful or harassing behavior, particularly against neighbours, is not what we do here in Canada.”

In fact ‘hateful or harassing behavior, particularly against neighbours,‘ is built into Canadian society and the Trudeau government has played a large role in making that happen.

The ideologies of hate, DEI and CRT, have been institutionalized in Canada.

Few spoke up against it prior to the Hamas-Israel war because the publicly accepted target was White people.

The brazen antisemitism we now witness was made possible by the state endorsed anti-White racism embraced by our governing class and institutions.

That isn’t to claim that anti-White racism historically preceded antisemitism only that in our current Canadian context Progressives and their Islamist allies saw what they could get away with against Whites and decided to go for broke against the Jews.

Everyone in Canada knows you can burn our churches assault our nation,  assault our heritage and paint us as the source of the world’s woes because the divide and conquer goal of identity politics has worked it’s evil magic.

If we dare speak up against this progressive racism you can call us genocide promoting white supremacists without fear of repercussion because even our schools and human rights commissions claim only Whites can be racist.

If Bill C-63 is passed we will be jailed for defending ourselves.

Isn’t it grand being citizens of a Post-National state?

Ontario teachers will be held accountable for hateful comments about Israel-Hamas conflict

Educators need to take caution when it comes to commenting on the Israel-Hamas conflict because there is “zero tolerance” for hate and they will be held accountable, says Education Minister Stephen Lecce.

Teachers and school administrators “need to lead by example,” Lecce said at Queen’s Park on Wednesday.

“The vile rise of hate in schools, afflicting many communities, is disturbing, with the spark in antisemitism. It requires educators, principals … to do better.”

How about the hate directed against white people?

Barbara Kay: Canadians should expect better of those tasked with fighting antisemitism

Two of Canada’s presumed authorities on best practices in combating antisemitism have surprised Canadians who consider themselves deeply invested in their competency: one in a negative, the other in a potentially positive way.

No sooner had Deborah Lyons, Canada’s former ambassador to Israel and Afghanistan, been handed the baton on Oct. 16 from her venerable predecessor, Irwin Cotler, as Canada’s special envoy on preserving Holocaust remembrance and combating antisemitism, than she stumbled on her first lap of the course.

About a week earlier, on Oct. 7, Israel suffered a proto-genocidal assault on civilians, from infants to the elderly, within its borders by Hamas terrorists, who — along with their supporters in the Arab world and in the West — celebrated their bloody rampage. Lyons surely knew the special envoy post was hers, so she had a week to organize her thoughts.

‘Never Again’ has rarely rung so hollow

Watching footage of a lynch mob storming an airport in Dagestan in the Russian Federation, in search of Jewish passengers disembarking a flight from Tel Aviv, I had a terrible sense of foreboding. We have seen this too many times before. A blood-thirsty rabble once again hunting for Jews to kill. If those involved had had their way, Makhachkala airport would have been the site of another pogrom.

Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters ‘mocked musician’s grandmother who died in Holocaust’

The former Pink Floyd star Roger Waters mocked a musician’s grandmother who died in the Holocaust, a new documentary alleges.

He also allegedly proposed writing “dirty k—”, a highly offensive racial slur, on an inflatable pig to be floated above one of his concerts.

Former colleagues have given interviews in which they claim the singer-songwriter made numerous humiliating and demeaning comments to Jewish people in his entourage.

Pittsburgh synagogue gunman gets death penalty

A US federal jury has sentenced the attacker who killed 11 people at a synagogue in Pittsburgh in October 2018 to the death penalty.

The ruling needed a unanimous vote from the 12-member jury for the sentence to be imposed. Prosecutors had asked the jury to vote for the death penalty.

The same jury found the man guilty of all 63 charges stemming from the attack on the Tree of Life synagogue.

It was the worst antisemitic attack in American history.
