OTTAWA – After an outgoing federal envoy denounced some politicians for using antisemitism as a “partisan” prop, Jewish Canadian leaders are now calling on political parties to stop using it to score political points.
“It maddens me when they use Holocaust Remembrance Day as an opportunity to even advance positive actions for the Jewish people,” said B’nai Brith advocacy head Richard Robertson.
“It becomes a form of tokenization.”
He was allegedly an obsessed man with multiple identities, a stun gun, and a kayak.
U.S. authorities allege a Michigan man snuck across the border with a kayak and a bicycle in his plot to strangle a Windsor woman — and kidnap her four-year-old son.
The details are among many bizarre allegations the U.S. Attorney’s Office recently levelled against Royal Oak’s Shahzad Hameedi.
US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that will add a $100,000 (£74,000) annual fee for applicants to the H-1B visa programme for skilled foreign workers.
Trump’s order mentions “abuse” of the programme and will restrict entry unless payment is made.
Critics have long argued that H-1Bs undercut the American workforce, while supporters – including billionaire Elon Musk – argue it allows the US to attract top talent from around the world.

Great work by President Trump to protect American citizens from the much abused H-1B program but in Canada the Corporate Grifters rule ...
Lutnick chimes in that the H1B visa fee will be $100,000 *every year* not a one-time application fee. This seems insane but massive opportunity for Canada to scoop up top engineering talent. https://t.co/BH0HCKmN87

Is the U.S. experiencing a major hit to its tourism industry because international travelers are getting scared off over concerns about violent crime?
Canada is facing an epidemic that most politicians simply won’t talk about – a staggering number of patients are left untreated because they leave emergency rooms rather than endure long wait times.
A new study from the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI) shows that, out of the 16.3 million visits Canadians made to emergency rooms in 2024, nearly 8% ended with the patient simply walking out without receiving treatment.
It’s become popular in Mark Carney’s new Liberal government to talk in sports metaphors. The prime minister often sprinkles his speeches with hockey references and the timing of the next major-project announcements has been repeatedly framed around forthcoming tournaments, such as the Grey Cup.
There aren’t many sports, though, in which backward movement is equated with success — perhaps the reverse-running trend that was supposedly catching on a few years ago? So there isn’t a handy way to compare what’s happening in progressive politics in Canada to something in the sporting world.
But there’s no question — in fact, a column in this very newspaper declared it’s already a cliche to say it — that a backsliding in progressivism is under way in the federal post-election world in Canada.
It’s called policy for profit and it’s spelled ‘Brookfield’.
This is not justice for a grieving family.
Craig MacDonald’s relatives burst into tears as his killer was sentenced to just nine years in prison — and with credit for pre-sentence custody, Abilaziz Mohamed has only 3.9 years left to serve.
Canadians are not feeling the trust with their neighbours south of the border after months of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs against Canada, new polling by Ipsos conducted exclusively for Global News has showed.
Six in 10 Canadians (60 per cent) say they can never trust the Americans the same way ever again, the poll found.
“It looks to me, based on these data, that Canadians feel that their relationship with the United States has changed in a fundamental way,” Ipsos Public Affairs CEO Darrell Bricker said.
Our MSM has been busy with the US versus Trump narrative today.
Carney must have some awfully putrid news he’s hoping to perfume.
After Chinese President Xi Jinping’s government renewed a longstanding threat to seize control of Taiwan through force on Thursday, Canadian officials confirmed the military is prepared to conduct a mass evacuation of expatriates in the Indo-Pacific region.
Appearing before the House defence committee, Major-General Robert Ritchie told MPs the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) maintain the capability to perform a “non-combatant evacuation operation,” should a request be received from the federal government.
… A report from the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada suggests more than 20,000 Canadians live in Taiwan.
The U.S. ambassador to Canada is expressing frustration over the anti-American sentiment he sees in this country, including from politicians, after U.S. President Donald Trump hit most of the world with tariffs.
Asked what surprised him about Canada since starting his new role in April, Pete Hoekstra said Thursday that what’s most “unexpected” is the country’s feelings about the U.S.
“I’m disappointed that I came to Canada — a Canada that it is very, very difficult to find Canadians who are passionate about the American-Canadian relationship,” Hoekstra said at an event hosted by the Halifax Chamber of Commerce.
Rap group Kneecap ‘ineligible to enter’ Canada after ‘displaying hate symbols targeting Jewish community,’ MP says
Irish rap group Kneecap has been deemed “ineligible to enter” Canada after being accused of “displaying hate symbols that directly target the Jewish community,” and supporting “terrorist organizations such as Hezbollah and Hamas,” Ontario MP Vince Gasparro announced on Friday.
Ukrainians who fled war in their country for safety in Canada now find themselves in a bureaucratic bind, as many encounter delays in renewing Canadian study and work permits, and face obstacles to renewing their Ukrainian passports.
Almost 300,000 Ukrainians came to Canada after Russia invaded Ukraine in February, 2022, under a program allowing an unlimited number of Ukrainian fleeing the war to work, study and stay in Canada for up to three years.
… But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has indicated to Ottawa that his government would like Ukrainians who fled here to go back and help rebuild.
Transport Canada had weeks of warning before BC Ferries made a controversial announcement in June that it was buying four new ships from China, according to an e-mail from the ferry organization’s head.
The purchase was swiftly condemned at the time by Chrystia Freeland, who was transport minister until she stepped down from the position on Tuesday to become Ottawa’s special representative to Ukraine.
Ukraine was Grifty’s reward for lining Xi’s pockets.
A new report by the Fraser Institute on Canada’s economic growth illustrates the wisdom of the famous saying popularized by Mark Twain that, “There are three kinds of lies: Lies, damned lies and statistics.”
It argues that while the Justin Trudeau government was boasting about Canada’s strong economic growth during its last five years in power from 2020-2024, the average Canadian’s standard of living was plummeting by the steepest rate in any five-year period since the Great Depression.

Canada needs to maintain its 100 per cent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said in an open letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney on Wednesday.
Ford said the measure is critical to securing a trade deal with the U.S. and protecting Canada’s auto sector.
“If the federal government removes its tariffs against Chinese-made EVs, you will contradict and undermine months of engagement with U.S. officials and lawmakers about the need to protect and enhance our highly integrated cross-border automotive supply chains,” Ford writes.
The China class will have the final word. My guess is 50-50 we’ll be driving Xi-Mobiles.
