Canada may impose sanctions on extremist Israeli settlers in West Bank & maybe even on Hamas too says Foreign Minister Joly

Canada may impose sanctions on some Jewish setters in the West Bank and is renewing calls for a two-state solution as the devastating Israel-Hamas war enters its third month, Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly said after she arrived in Ukraine on Friday.

“We are working on addressing the issue of extremist settlers in the West Bank through immigration measures and sanctions,” she told The Globe and Mail in an interview. “We are working with the G7 on this.”

… She added that senior members of Hamas, the Palestinian military and political group that has governed the Gaza Strip since 2007, and who are considered a terrorist organization by Canada, the United States, the European Union and Israel, “may also be sanctioned.”

Unexpected $1,000 expense too much for most Canadians under 55: new survey

OTTAWA – Many Canadians “lack a financial cushion” according to a new Angus Reid survey(opens in a new tab), which found majority of respondents under 55 could not handle an unexpected expense of more than $1,000.

“As housing costs continue to rise from this period of high interest rates, renters and mortgage holders feel squeezed,” the Angus Reid survey said.

This financial concern is compounded by half of those surveyed in the same age group, worrying about losing their jobs.

Uyghur Canadians pull out of public inquiry into foreign interference

An organization representing Uyghur Canadians is withdrawing from the public inquiry into foreign interference, a development that threatens to undermine Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue’s ability to hear testimony from all vulnerable diaspora communities facing persecution from China.

The Uyghur Rights Advocacy Project wrote to Justice Hogue Wednesday to serve notice it is formally withdrawing because she granted party standing to former Ontario Liberal cabinet minister Michael Chan, now deputy mayor of Markham, Ont., and independent MP Han Dong. This type of standing means they can cross-examine witnesses and gain access to all evidence collected, including that presented to the inquiry outside of hearings.

Ireland, immigration and the fury of the masses

Last November, Dublin was in flames. Protests against immigration turned into a riot and videos of the carnage went around the world. The inexcusable violence has been leapt on by an Irish elite desperate to demonise all opposition to immigration and push through new hate-crime laws. But as Ella Whelan explains in our latest video polemic, this dismissive approach is no longer going to cut it. Irish people don’t hate migrants. They have no time for the thuggish far right, either. But they are furious about the establishment’s handling of immigration. And they are not going to be quiet anymore.

Compare the above with this elitist piece from the Globe. This is the same slander Trudeau’s Liberal party has used against Canadians who dare speak out against mass imigration.

Ireland’s drift to the right

In a country with a reputation for welcoming the needy, nationalist groups are feeding on growing anger at Middle Eastern and African asylum seekers, Ukrainian refugees and lack of housing

Jewish groups condemn ‘toolkit on teaching Palestine’ at York University

Prominent Jewish groups, including an on-campus association, are reacting to the charge that a York University union distributed a toolkit to teaching assistants, advising them to divert tutorials to discuss “Palestinian liberation” and conflict in the Middle East.

On Tuesday, York University said it was seeking a meeting with CUPE Local 3903 over a document circulated called a “toolkit on teaching Palestine” that asked union members to “collectively divert” lessons to the topic of the Middle East during the week of Jan. 21.

Ottawa denies it told CBC to cut 3.3 per cent of its budget, as executives claimed

OTTAWA – The federal Liberal government is denying that it told CBC/Radio-Canada to cut its budget by 3.3 per cent, despite executives with the public broadcaster insisting that’s part of the reason they’re laying off 10 per cent of their workforce.

The Treasury Board, which oversees spending in the federal budget, said that no such directive was given to the public broadcaster.

“Whatever Radio-Canada and CBC is doing is their decision,” the office of the Treasury Board president, Anita Anand, told The Canadian Press on Wednesday.

I don’t believe a thing either side says.

GUNTER: Trudeau Liberals’ policies causing Canadian economy to lag

Canada’s economy shrank in the fourth quarter of 2023 by 0.2%. That’s the second quarter of shrinkage in a row. In the third quarter, it fell 0.3%.

Technically that means Canada is in recession, since the definition of a recession is two consecutive quarters of Gross Domestic Product shrinkage. Yet no one in the government or over at the toady Bank of Canada will use the “R” word.

ANALYSIS: Scrutiny of Values Held by Immigrants to Canada Increases Amid Israel–Hamas War

Hamas support rally Toronto

While Canada has long been known as a safe haven for refugees and a welcoming place for immigrants, polls show an increasing concern among Canadians that newcomers may not share some key national values.

These concerns relate, in part, to the Israel–Hamas war—particularly the degree to which immigrants may sympathize with Hamas or hold anti-Semitic views.

The conflict between Hindu’s and Sikhs, the Eritreans, Marauding Muslims and now South Asian gang wars.

It will only get worse, this past year has been a harbinger of the ethnic violence to come.

Fuck diversity, fuck multiculturalism, fuck mass immigration.

Jesse Kline: The UNRWA teachers who slaughtered Jews and the Canadian profs who admire them

The Israel-Hamas war has exposed an education system that promotes hate and glorifies violence — not only in the Palestinian territories, but right here in Canada.

On Friday, UNRWA, the United Nations agency responsible for ensuring Palestinians remain in a perpetual state of refugeehood, announced that it had fired several staff members after Israel provided credible evidence that they had participated in the Oct. 7 massacre. This prompted numerous countries, including Canada, to pause funding to the agency.

Canada Should Exit CCP Leader Xi’s Imperial Bank

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in 2017 ignored multiple warnings and committed Canada to membership in Xi Jinping’s pet project—an infrastructure bank that finances Beijing’s Belt and Road Initiative and furthers China’s bid to become an imperial power.

The bank, known as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), pretends to be benign—just another multilateral development bank, such as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank—but its corporate structure belies such “business-as-usual” claims.

WARMINGTON: Security threat against Trudeau all of Canada’s concern

It’s just not acceptable to see Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as vulnerable as he was on Monday when an angry mob of protesters descended on his vehicle.

It was a serious security incident caught on camera that once again raises concerns about the safety of Canada’s prime minister while illustrating a vitriolic mood among some Canadians.

I dunno. I mean it’s Trudeau.
