‘We won’t forget’: How some Muslims view Poilievre’s stance on Israel-Hamas war

OTTAWA – A spokesman for a regional Muslim advocacy group says Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war could complicate his party’s relationship with Muslim Canadians.
Nawaz Tahir of the Hikma Public Affairs Council in London, Ont., met Poilievre during the leader’s outreach efforts in southwestern Ontario last summer.

Tahir says he believes Poilievre has missed chances to show compassion with Muslims and that building ties could be, in his words, “much more difficult now.”

Swan Song to Canada’s Jewish Golden Age

As a Jew, I am watching in dismay as Hamas seems to be winning the war that Hamas unilaterally instigated on October 7 by its horrific assault. Hamas, which committed the actual war crimes of intentional killing, rape and torture of civilians, taking civilian hostages for ransom, and purposefully embedding military personnel and weapons within and below civilian homes, schools and even hospitals, has, with a brilliant campaign of disinformation, fine-tuned for a short-attention-span world of instant communication, and fanned by vehement supporters in the West, diverted public outrage away from Hamas’ actual war crimes, and directed it against Israel’s difficult military response. Hamas’ religiously motivated leaders are willing to put their own civilian population in harm’s way. Indeed, Hamas’ primary military strategy is to have as many Palestinian civilians as possible killed, or suffering, in order to turn public opinion against Israel, and to induce those in the West who support Hamas’ side of the war (such as Canada’s left-wing New Democratic Party) to put forward resolutions calling for a ceasefire, an arms embargo against Israel and official recognition of the State of Palestine, as the NDP did in Canada’s House of Commons on March 18.

UAE residents who migrated to Canada, US now moving back to Dubai: Experts

The UAE is witnessing a reverse migration trend: More former residents, who relocated to Canada and the US for greener pastures, are returning to the country, industry experts said.

Property developers in Dubai have seen increased investments from such new Canadian and US nationals who used to live in the UAE. They are now buying homes in the emirate to move away from the high taxes, rising cost of living and fewer opportunities in the countries they initially migrated to.

David Rosenberg: Canada was once productive and competitive, but not today

I have to say that watching the recent fiasco in the House of Commons with respect to the subtle (maybe not too subtle) shift in Mideast policy makes it embarrassing enough to be a Canadian, but the government’s mishandling of the economy and fiscal policy is beyond the pale — declining real per-capita incomes in Canada year in and year out.

If not for the tight trading ties with the United States and the good fortune of a rich endowment of resources, the Canadian economy would be in perennial recession.

Tenants’ rent should count toward their credit score, the federal government says — but it won’t force the move

The federal government is calling on banks, credit bureaus, landlords and financial technology firms to include rent payments in credit scores in a bid to help Canadians secure better mortgage rates. But officials say they won’t yet enforce the practice, and one critic expects the move will have little impact on affordability.

… It’s a move that David Hulchanski, a housing expert at the University of Toronto, sees as relatively toothless. Along with the voluntary nature of implementation, he noted that credit scores were less pervasive of a barrier to homeownership than the sheer cost of homes today compared with income levels.

Trudeau even more unpopular than Dementia Joe

… Many world leaders are also up for re-election. More than 60 countries — half of the world’s population — will vote or have voted this year. Most of the countries in the chart above will vote in national or European Union elections in the coming months.

Why are people so upset with their leaders? Some explanations are local, but four global issues have driven much of the public’s anger. Call them the four I’s: inflation, immigration, inequality and incumbency.

Mysterious writer behind ISIS-K propaganda calls himself ‘the Canadian’

A mysterious writer making propaganda for an Afghan branch of ISIS claimed to be based somewhere in Canada which, experts say, could be cause for concern for authorities.

Voice of Khurasan, an online publication used by the Islamic State of Khorasan (ISIS-K), which is suspected of being behind the Moscow attack that killed at least 140 people last week, includes several contributions from a person who publishes under the name Sulaiman Dawood al-Kanadie.

The last part of the handle means “the Canadian” in Arabic and has been used by several high-profile ISIS members from Canada in the past.

I’d start with the Liberal Party.

Canadian Jews are once again in the crosshairs of cancel culture

Like other western countries, Canada isn’t immune to “cancel culture,” a disturbing sign of the times. The term itself may be contemporary but cancel culture’s unholy mix of defamation, intimidation and threats is anything but new. Variations on this practice date back millennia, with Jews often the prime target.

Amid rampant antisemitism and the current tyranny of cancel culture run amok, the anti-Israel camp is leading the charge in trying to silence the voices of Jews. Sadly, they’re succeeding far too often as organizations and institutions capitulate to pressure from those seeking to cancel Jews.

Some kinds of hate are less worthy than others in Canada. Our schools, governments and even human rights commissions openly abuse Whites,  both children and adults. Only rarely does it merit attention from the media as the Bilkszto case did. Typically there are no repercussions for discriminating against Whites, the DEI huckster in the Bilkszto case is still in business.

EXPOSED: Vancouver’s Drag Scene Under Fire For Child Exploitation

Over the weekend, we received a very distressing email from a transsexual man in Vancouver, asking for help exposing something deeply disturbing happening in a string of bars and pubs across BC. For safety purposes, our source wishes to remain anonymous, something we completely understand as tension around trans ideology has greatly increased in recent years and multiple trans people have made headlines committing acts of violence.

Supreme Court asked to reconsider hearing case of ISIS terrorists detained in Syria

In a rare move, lawyers representing four Canadian men held in prisons in northeastern Syria have asked Canada’s top court to reconsider its decision not to hear their claim that Canada has a duty to bring them home.

The detained Canadian men include Jack Letts, who ended up in Syria after becoming a devoted Muslim as a teenager and then going on holiday in Jordan.

They are among tens of thousands of Syrians and foreign nationals being held in the region by Kurdish-led forces at camps and prisons for ISIS suspects and their families. Kurdish-led forces reclaimed the region in 2019 from the extremist group.

Tasha Kheiriddin: High-trust Japan shows just how low public safety standards are in Canada

Spend two weeks in a foreign country and you’re bound to compare it to home. Whether it’s the stunning architecture of Paris or the warm beaches of the Caribbean, you sigh and say, “How lovely, if only we had this in Canada.” But you know it’s a fantasy: you can’t recreate 200-year-old stone walkups in downtown Toronto, and the water of the Atlantic Ocean will never be 28 C.

Michael Higgins: Poll showing continued support for Hamas in Gaza exposes Liberal, NDP naivete

If the people of Gaza want peace and a two-state solution, as a new poll appears to suggest, they might want to rethink their overwhelming support for the genocidal terrorist organization Hamas.

Gazans’ support for Hamas has remained strong since the horrific Oct. 7 massacre, according to a March 20 poll from the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, as has their desire to have the group continue to control the Gaza Strip when the current war is over.

Of course they are …
