OTTAWA – Jewish groups in Ontario are calling on the province to end hateful and intimidating protests they say are targeting Toronto’s largest Jewish neighbourhoods.
An appeal spearheaded by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) is asking Queen’s Park and Ontario Attorney General Doug Downey to take action, urging politicians at all levels to end the protests before somebody gets hurt, or worse.
Not gonna happen.
Liberal media welcomes authoritarian turn by EU-backed Tusk government.
Poland’s political power struggle intensified on Tuesday as police stormed the Presidential Palace in Warsaw, arresting two former Law and Justice (PiS) ministers amid new claims of rising authoritarianism from the recently installed Donald Tusk administration.
Former interior minister and deputy interior minister Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik were snatched by police on abuse-of-power charges dating back to 2007, with both politicians decrying the arrests as politically motivated.

Canada has granted permanent residency to more than 355,000 foreign students over the past three years, according to recent disclosures by the Department of Immigration.
These students are part of a larger group of over 627,000 former temporary residents who obtained permanent residency during the same period, spanning from 2021 to 2023, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter. These numbers coincide with the highest federal immigration quotas in Canadian history.
An overwhelming majority of Germans back the farmers’ protests despite media claims that the “far right” was co-opting the demonstrations, a tactic that was also used by the media to discredit Covid-19 demonstrations in Germany.
A new poll from INSA shows that 69 percent of Germans support the current farmers’ protests, while only 22 percent reject them. Despite one in five poll respondents saying they were directly affected by the protests, which featured tractors blockading roads and highways, the majority still gave their nod of approval.
Justin Trudeau responds to calls for probe into allegations of sexual assault by Hamas
OTTAWA — Calls by women from across the political spectrum for Canada to play a role in investigating Hamas’s use of sexual violence in its Oct. 7 attacks on Israel are finally being answered.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has ordered two key cabinet ministers to look into exactly how Canada could support a request from former Ontario premier Kathleen Wynne, former deputy Conservative leader Lisa Raitt and others to commit $1 million to support victims and survivors, and send the RCMP to Israel to aid in investigations.
Allegations? Trudeau craves the Muslim vote he won’t do a damn thing.
Canadian Sailor Who Posted Pro-Pedophilia Comments Fined $2K by Military
A member of the Royal Canadian Navy who posted support online for “minor-attracted persons,” or pedophiles, received a fine and a reprimand that is logged on her employment records.
The Military Police concluded its investigation into Master Sailor Jessica Silva during the week of Nov. 20, 2023, and a summary hearing was held on Nov. 30, 2023, Navy spokesperson Sabrina Nash told the Epoch Times in an email.
And they wonder why they have a recruiting problem.
Call it the mystery of the disappearing missile system.
In January 2023, Anita Anand, then-minster of defence, announced an act of sweeping largesse on the part of the Canadian government.
This country would purchase a National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System (NASAMS) for Ukraine.
I bet the LPC stole it.

The Biden administration’s two-tiered justice system struck again this week when it did nothing to punish pro-Hamas protestors who defaced a U.S. military cemetery.
The vandals were caught on camera spray-painting the walls of the Los Angeles National Cemetery memorial with anti-Israel rhetoric such as “Free Gaza” and “Intifada.”
Another one bites the dust, and we’re not referencing the classic Queen song here. This time, it’s about yet another nostalgic, quintessentially American small town losing its charm. This time, illegals have taken over and destroyed the town of Whitewater, Wisconsin, a once lovely place to call home that has turned into a den of grime and inequity.
The presidents of Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and MIT assert in a Congressional hearing that calling on campus for the genocide of the Jews is an exercise in free speech and so not a violation of university policies. The breath-taking hypocrisy of this claim, to say nothing of its immorality, was obvious to everyone who does not subscribe to the newspeak of American academia. Such a call for genocide with regard to any other group would, of course, not be tolerated. In addition, all three universities are constantly violating free speech precepts by limiting the access of conservative voices to their campuses and barring other sorts of speech that favored groups might find offensive.
Pax Americana has hollowed out our sense of duty
The year I was born, one of the most famous New Wave songs of all time was released: Elvis Costello’s “Oliver’s Army”. It was written after Costello visited Northern Ireland during the Troubles. There, he described seeing “mere boys walking around in battle dress with automatic weapons” — the soldiers, often recruited from Britain’s working class, that make up the United Kingdom’s standing army.
There’s a funny clip from the TV series The Young Pope, in which Pius XII, a brash, cynical American played by Jude Law, hosts in his office the Vatican’s new marketing chief. She tells the pontiff that she was educated at Harvard.
“The word ‘Harvard’ may impress people around here,” the pope sneers, “but to an American, it means one thing only: decline.”
A millionaire conwoman has been accused of swindling the US Army out of $100million over six years by putting cash into her fake military youth business and splurging it on 31 homes and more than 70 supercars and motorcycles.
Janet Yamanaka Mello, 57, allegedly took military funds and spent millions of dollars on jewelry, clothing, luxury vehicles and real estate in one of the biggest fraud cases the military has ever dealt with.
Mello worked for the US Army at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas as a CYS Financial Program Manager.
Marvel Studios, the superhero-movie behemoth, endured its worst year ever at the box office in 2023.
A few explanations have already been offered for Marvel’s ailing fortunes. Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, Marvel Studios’ parent company, has said that fans are tired of so many sequels. One pundit has blamed a lack of quality control. Another feels that 15 long years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has resulted in an ‘ennui de superheroes’ among the cinema-going public.
