In my neighbourhood where many Jewish Canadians live, there is still a Toronto police mobile field command unit operating in the parking lot of a prominent Jewish day school, set up in the wake of Hamas’ terrorist attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
Guns, Drugs, and Cash Found in Detroit Senior Living Facility
Michigan has embraced a lot of gun control laws since Gov. Gretchen Whitmer took office. While she hid her face in the Oval Office, her gun record should have her hiding her face everywhere else, too.
As per usual, all of the measures passed were sold as ways to prevent criminal activity of some description. This is the selling point for every bit of gun control.
Why many Canadian Jews are gravitating toward the Conservative Party
No community is a monolith; each is as diverse as its members. With that caveat, here are some thoughts about why so many Canadian Jews are enamoured with the Conservative Party.
Pierre Poilievre is the one leader, as many Canadian Jews see it, who has spoken out unequivocally against antisemitism. He’s the one leader, they feel, who has their backs.
It’s very clear who Jews are supporting in this election; and it’s not the Liberals. pic.twitter.com/Ve4Kvq0BOs

Sloppy Job: Migrant Under Police Surveillance Hit and Bit French Rabbi
A teenager sentenced after attacking a rabbi in broad daylight last month in Orléans—while the rabbi was walking home from synagogue with his nine-year-old son—was already under investigation for three other serious offences, despite being in France for less than a year.
Pierre Poilievre’s rallies feel distinctly Trumpian – they might just help him win
The queue to get into the cavernous union hall stretched around the block and the merchandise stand was doing a roaring trade as Canadian rock blared from the sound system.
If the comparison with a Donald Trump rally was not obvious enough as thousands of supporters filed into a Toronto suburb on Tuesday evening, it came when Pierre Poilievre took the stage.
He promised a “Canada First reinvestment tax cut,” a capital gains break dressed up with a nationalist title.
Joy Behar Fears Pope Francis Will Be Replaced by ‘Some Conservative Guy‘
Joy Behar said she fears that Pope Francis will be replaced by “some conservative guy” on Tuesday’s episode of ABC’s The View, during which the show’s co-hosts used the pope’s death as an opportunity to complain about U.S. politics.
Canada’s doomsday scenario is already here, no need to wait until 2040
As Canadian doomsday scenarios go, it’s a bit of a letdown. But you’d never know it by the headlines.
First prize goes to the American news site Politico: Apocalypse Now. Runners-up: The Toronto Sun’s “Government report predicts 2040 dystopia: Collapsed economy, hunting for food,” Alberta’s Todayville went with Breaking: The Federal Brief That Should Sink Carney, and the Better Dwelling webzine chose Canada To Become A Dystopian Nightmare, Households Will Flee: Gov Report.
New Evidence Against Kilmar Abrego Garcia Drops… And It’s Bad
Well, the evidence against Kilmar Abrego Garcia just keeps piling up. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the now-deported MS-13 thug was driving a car registered to a convicted human smuggler during a traffic stop in Tennessee back in 2022—and he wasn’t alone. He had a group of men with him, raising even more questions about what exactly he was up to. This is the kind of criminal the Left is fighting to protect while pretending Trump is the threat.
This quiet election campaign is playing right into the lucky Liberals’ hands
For dramatics, the Canadian election campaign was never going to compete with the American one.
How many campaigns do you see where one party’s nominee is the target of two assassination attempts, one of which sears his ear?
How many do you get when the other party’s nominee is in fact liquidated by his own tribe, the mutiny taking place after the poor fellow staggered through a debate trying to look like a vigorous 80-year-old while coming across as 110.
Anti-Hamas protests on rise in Gaza as group’s iron grip slips
“Out! Out! Out!”
The voice in the Telegram video is insistent. Loud. Sometimes musical.
And the message unambiguous.
“All of Hamas, out!”
On the streets of Gaza, more and more Palestinians are expressing open defiance against the armed group that’s ruled the strip for almost 20 years.
Many hold Hamas responsible for plunging the tiny, impoverished territory into the worst crisis faced by Palestinians in more than 70 years.
Carson Binda: Carney’s industrial carbon tax will kill jobs, increase cost of living
Liberal Leader Mark Carney is arguing that he can “tighten” industrial carbon taxes without increasing costs for consumers. That’s a tough sell. After all, a carbon tax on businesses is a carbon tax on Canadians that will make life more expensive for families struggling to make ends meet.
New polling conducted by Leger for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation shows that Canadians overwhelmingly understand that the costs of an industrial carbon tax, like the one championed by Carney, are passed on to consumers.
How Beijing is fuelling Putin’s war and Kyiv’s diplomacy
It’s the summer of 2023 and Ukrainian troops are furiously digging trenches under Russian fire in the pine forests outside Kreminna. Suddenly, a rocket crashes to the ground, and Zhakhar, a special forces sergeant, shouts at his troops to retreat to the car.
It was a dispiriting pushback, but at least it gave him a chance to inspect his latest battlefield trophy. Examining two boxes in his hand, he saw markings that were not Russian, but clearly Chinese.
Councillors billed Toronto taxpayers for popcorn, podcasts
City councillors spent thousands on podcasts, parties and popcorn – and Toronto taxpayers got the bill.
Councillors’ office expenses for 2024 were recently released, and some of the spending ranges from seemingly wasteful to weird.
Toronto’s 25 councillors each had a budget of $58,411.87, and some spent almost all of that. Lily Cheng, the biggest spender, came in at $58,404.53, barely beating out Chris Moise’s $58,383.99.

Eco-warriors AOC, Bernie Sanders took $15K-per-hour private jet to attend ‘Fighting Oligarchy’ rally
For socialists, they’re sure a couple of high flyers!
Far-left New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was spotted exiting a private jet with her comrade in arms, Sen. Bernie Sanders, after shuttling between stops for a campaign dedicated to denouncing the wealthy.
