Canada needs co-ordinated action plan to combat antisemitism, says former envoy

The federal government “has yet to appreciate the gravity of the threat” of antisemitism today and there needs to be a co-ordinated action plan to counter the problem, says former special envoy Irwin Cotler.

“We can’t continue to work in silos here or say it’s the others’ responsibility,” Cotler said in an interview with CBC’s The House that aired Saturday morning. “No, this is an integrated and collective responsibility.”


Too late. Unless you’re ready to ban islamist migration and carry out mass deportations, purge the universities and teacher colleges, the public service unions and of course the mainstream political parties.

The way things are going it will soon be an islamophobic hate crime to speak against antisemitism.

Ford says PM Carney ‘better fight like hell’ during meeting with Trump next week

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says Prime Minister Mark Carney “better fight like hell” during his trip to Washington, D.C., next week.

“You’re going down there Tuesday. You better fight like hell. Don’t roll over and keep fighting,” Ford said during a rally in front of the Stellantis Assembly Plant in Brampton on Saturday afternoon.

Carney is set to travel to the U.S. capital for a “working visit and meeting” with President Trump, the Prime Minister’s Office said.


I get the feeling Ford is now living in the past.

A permanent resident of Canada with multiple assault convictions under his belt who was ordered deported more than eight years ago after striking another nightclub patron with a bottle, breaking his tooth and injuring his face, is fighting for his release from the Toronto Immigration Holding Centre.

The Star of These American Air Shows Will Be … Canada?

It’s the fall air show season, but the biggest attraction — U.S. military planes — will not appear this weekend in Southern California because of the federal government shutdown.

In their place? The Snowbirds, the acrobatic fleet from the Royal Canadian Air Force.

“Thank God Canada is not the 51st state yet,” said Kevin Elliott, the director of the Pacific Airshow in Huntington Beach, Calif.

Province cracking down on ‘fraudulent behaviour’ in Alberta’s trucking industry: Dreeshen

The Alberta government says it has shut down five training schools and taken several other steps to crack down on unsafe practices and bad actors in the commercial trucking sector.

China’s Reach in Canada: Former RCMP National Director Calls for Urgent Action

Despite years of Beijing’s efforts to expand its influence in Canada, the country has yet to fully recognize or counter the threat the communist regime poses to its future, according to a former RCMP officer.

Garry Clement, former national director for the RCMP’s Proceeds of Crime program, has been investigating transnational crime for decades. He describes the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as the “biggest transnational organized crime group in the world,” and says that despite growing evidence of its operatives, many in positions of authority in Canada appear unwilling to acknowledge the threat or take action.

Sheryl Saperia: Why has Canada not listed all the groups that attacked on October 7 as terrorists?

U.S. President Donald Trump’s newly unveiled Gaza peace plan has thrown the spotlight back on international diplomacy. Israel has already said yes; the world now waits to see whether Hamas will do the same. Canada, meanwhile, prematurely recognized Palestinian statehood without imposing mandatory conditions.

Last week in these pages, I argued that the newly recognized state of Palestine should be designated as a state supporter of terrorism by the Carney government. At a minimum, if Ottawa wants to demonstrate moral clarity, it could start by listing as a terrorist organization every group found to have participated in the October 7 massacre.

Two words: “Muslim Votes”

Government workers in Canada enjoy higher wages than private-sector counterparts

In its upcoming federal budget, in an attempt to offset some of the massive spending commitments it’s made in recent months, the Carney government may shrink the size of the federal public service. But it should also bring government-sector wages in Canada more in line with private-sector wages.

Any talk of reducing wages — either in government or the private sector — will always generate controversy. And understandably so, as people’s jobs and wages are at stake. Therefore, it’s critical to examine the numbers so Canadians and policymakers can better understand the reality of the situation.

‘Golden Dome’ and a U.S. defence pivot create new challenges for Canada

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. administration is set to publish its National Defense Strategy this month at a time when the Pentagon is planning for a leaner, meaner military, and President Donald Trump is inviting Canada to enjoy the protection of Golden Dome defence by becoming the 51st U.S. state.

So, National Post spoke with Jennifer Kavanagh, a senior fellow and director of military analysis at Defense Priorities and an adjunct professor at Georgetown University’s Center for Security Studies, to get her insights on American defence strategy and the road ahead.

Canada will not pony up.

Largest Meth Seizure in New Zealand History Arrived in Maple Syrup Bottles From Vancouver

AUCKLAND — Three men were sentenced in Auckland’s High Court this week for their role in receiving the largest methamphetamine seizure ever recorded at New Zealand’s border, which arrived from Vancouver’s port concealed in maple syrup bottles. Customs officers intercepted 713.8 kilograms of the drug in January 2023, enough for roughly 35 million doses and calculated to equate to NZ$800 million in drug harms. The shipment, stacked on 18 pallets and disguised as four-litre syrup jugs, was routed through a global node for Chinese chemical precursor trafficking and synthetic drug production.
