    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    If you are a Canadian Jew, or you are one of the many who supports Canadian Jews and Israel, it’s been a bad week. The mayor of Canada’s largest city refused to attend the raising of one Israeli flag at City Hall, because it was too “divisive.” McGill University failed to get an injunction to...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    How often are your American politicians, when they fail to successfully convinced their own citizenry of their even minor competence or relevance, campaigning on Canadian court cases (or let’s say the Emergencies Act or whatever) ‘cuz it happened in Canada so it can happen here (?) to try to...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    One of the most vivid images from Oct 7th. Driven through the streets oh Gaza as people struck her body with sticks and women and children spit on her as she went by, with obviously broken limbs, while the crowds were yelling “God is great” etc…it was a grotesque celebration Allahu Akbar...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday that Canadian conservative leaders are as much of a threat to women's right to a safe abortion as the rollback of the landmark Roe v. Wade court decision was in the United States? In 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down a federal law that...

    Hard drugs to be decriminalized in British Columbia

    Without provincial approval or input, the Trudeau government has set up 16 sites in Ontario listed on the federal government’s website as offering so-called safer supply.

    Iranically Iran, Middle East’s Karen…

    In the decades following the 1979 revolution in Iran, faux Islamic leaders in Tehran have purported to speak for the Muslim world. Iran’s population stands at about 88 million, and 2023 polling by the Netherlands-based Group for Analyzing and Measuring Attitudes in Iran suggests that only 15 per...

    Trudeau’s Newest New Carbon Tax

    Chickens with their heads cut off run around in circles. In politics, the federal Liberals are starting to exhibit this post-mortem behaviour. Their electoral chances are as good as dead, and their head, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, seems only tenuously attached to his party. Still, they...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    With the Liberals deeply unpopular across the country, traditional wisdom would suggest the NDP should be surging as the traditional party of protest against the incumbent national government, whether it be Liberal or Conservative. But because of Singh’s deal with Trudeau, many Canadians...

    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    The public inquiry into foreign interference in Canada has already established that China tried to meddle in the last two general election campaigns. That’s no longer a question of did they, but a fact that they did. http://www.youtube.com/shorts/kyi587be3cg But, if a new report into the...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    …& if that doesn’t work… try the old “Trump” method and throw as much shit at the wall as you can just to see what will stick?: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau assailed New Brunswick's premier and other conservative leaders on Thursday, calling out the provincial government's position on...

    Blowed Up Good... Real Good.

    So weirdly, Lisa calls me at work this morning shortly before the lunch hour to tell me that the CBC is here at home (?) and she needs me to come home early? The only clue she gave me is that it pertain to the burnt house above, and the landlord of that property, so I come home and give some...

    Maybe we all need to just laugh at ourselves more, and laugh with each other, instead of at each other. These forums and threads are a source of entertainment and sharing information. Happy pre-long weekend to everybody!!!
