Jeremy Bowen: Goodwill running out as UK, France and Canada demand Israel end Gaza offensive

Israel went to war after the Hamas attacks of 7 October 2023 armed with an arsenal of weapons mostly paid for, supplied and then resupplied by the United States.

Its other allies gave Israel something just as potent in its own way: a deep credit of goodwill and solidarity, based on revulsion at the killings of 1,200 people, mostly Israeli civilians, and the sight of 251 people being dragged into captivity in Gaza as hostages.

Now it seems that Israel’s credit has gone, at least as far as France, the United Kingdom and Canada are concerned. They have issued their strongest condemnation yet of the way Israel is fighting the war in Gaza.

Muslim Council proposes bill to recognize state of Palestine

A new draft bill by the National Council of Canadian Muslims calls on Parliament to formally recognize the state of Palestine, marking what the group says would be a historic step in Canadian foreign policy, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.

“What is happening right now in Gaza is one of the great moral issues of our time, if not the greatest,” CEO of the National Council Stephen Brown told reporters.

“This doesn’t bode well for us as Canadians … First model legislation in Canadian history that charts our own course as a nation on Palestinian human rights.”

FBI boss Kash Patel launches scathing accusation at ’51st state’ Canada after alarming terrorism finding

FBI Director Kash Patel dropped a major bombshell on Sunday by accusing Canada of allowing drugs and terrorists to flow over the northern border into the U.S.

Patel is turning his attention to Canada and demanding the country do more to stop illegal activity at the border.

He said that Mexico has done more to partner with Washington, D.C. to stop those on the terrorist watch list and other bad actors from getting over the border, and he told Canada to ‘step up’ to the plate.

Immigration, Islamism, and Antisemitism in Canada

In truth, any democratic nation that opens its doors to Islamic fundamentalists inevitably courts its own collapse.

Since Hamas’ grotesque attack against the nation of Israel and the Jewish people on October 7th, Canada has become rife with antisemitism. Unfortunately, the Jew-hatred that has defaced Canadian society is not a mere consequence of the Israel-Palestine Conflict and its most recent outbreak.

Rather, Canada has been engulfed by antisemitism and Jew-hatred throughout the modern era, due to the fact that, for nearly a decade, the Liberal government’s inadequate migration policy and summary inability to secure Canada’s borders has permitted radical Islamic ideology and fundamentalism to flow freely into Canada.

Canadian Activists: Meth-Fueled Orgies Should Be Celebrated

Most reasonable people would agree that meth-fueled orgies are a bad thing, and that having sex with groups of strangers for days on end should be discouraged. Yet some “harm reduction” advocates have suggested that these orgies should be tolerated, perhaps even celebrated. This demonstrates that the harm-reduction movement is more interested in normalizing drug use than mitigating its negative consequences.

UK, France and Canada threaten ‘concrete actions’ against Israel, including sanctions

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — The U.K., France and Canada on Monday threatened “concrete actions” against Israel, including sanctions, for its activities in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, calling on Israel to stop “egregious” new military actions in Gaza and immediately allow in humanitarian aid.

The sharply worded statement came shortly after Israel and the United Nations said the first few trucks of aid had entered Gaza after nearly three months of an Israeli blockade, as Israel acknowledged pressure from allies.

The joint statement called Israel’s decision to allow a “minimal” amount of aid into Gaza “wholly inadequate.” There was no immediate Israeli comment.

Supermarket workers are wearing body cameras. Welcome to the new dystopia

At some Loblaws and Shoppers Drug Mart stores, you may soon see employees strolling about wearing a new accessory: body cameras. Walmart is also piloting this tech in Canada. They’re compact and sometimes colourful devices that hang from a lanyard like a name tag at a conference. Except instead of sweetly introducing you to a clerk, they introduce the tacit threat of being recorded.

This technology is typically associated with law enforcement, not retail clerks. Though the cameras aren’t always storing video or audio, they can be switched on during “escalations.” It’s a surreal update to the kind of “Karen”-esque supermarket-aisle showdowns you sometimes see on social media, but more importantly, it’s a dark sign of what’s being asked of wage workers in today’s surveillance economy.

Alberta government launches research centre to study Canada-U.S. relations

The Alberta government is launching a new research centre to study the political and economic dynamics between Canada and the United States, as U.S. President Donald Trump‘s trade war and 51st-state rhetoric have upended the previously close relationship between the two countries.

The New North American Initiative, led by the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy, will receive $6.5-million over three years from the province. Post-secondary institutions and universities on both sides of the border will share expertise on navigating the new Canada-U.S. landscape.

FBI Warning—CCP, Iran, and Mex-Cartels Partnering in Canada to Move Fentanyl and Terrorists Into U.S.

WASHINGTON — In an explosive Sunday interview that will place tremendous pressure on Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new Liberal government, FBI Director Kash Patel alleged that Mexican cartels, Chinese Communist Party operatives, and Iranian threat actors have forged a new axis of criminal cooperation, using Canada’s porous northern border and the Port of Vancouver—not the southern Mexican border—as their preferred entry point to flood fentanyl and terror suspects into the United States.

‘Feeling forgotten’ and ‘left behind’: why more young men are voting Conservative

In a historic flip in trends, gen-Z voters overtook baby boomers in Conservative support this election, according to multiple voter intention surveys and early exit polls. Boomers, who typically vote blue, flocked to the Liberals in response to the ballot-box question of tackling United States President Donald Trump, whereas voters under the age of 30—specifically males—shifted to the Conservatives, pointing to an emerging generational and gender divide among Canada’s youngest voting demographic.

This trend is not unique to Canada. Young men are increasingly backing right-wing parties in developed nations across the globe. One of the most notable—and close—examples of this is in the U.S: in the 2024 presidential election, 51 per cent of male voters under the age of 30 voted for Republican candidate Donald Trump. That number represents an increase of 15 per cent from the 2020 U.S. election, and is 15 points higher than among young women of the same age.

TDS Alert: After the joy of seeing Carney beat his Trump-lite rival, reality has bitten. Canada is an anxious, divided nation

A few days after last month’s Canadian election had delivered a minority victory to Mark Carney and the Liberal party, I got an email from someone I worked with when I lived in Virginia. They asked how I was feeling about the result, a big and complicated question.

Many Canadians I know feel immense relief at what they see as Canada’s rejection of the Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre’s, Trump-style brand. But underneath it simmers dread about what might be coming down the pipeline.

After all, a good chunk of the country dislikes (and even despises) the Liberal party. There’s the comment I heard about leaving the country if the Liberals get re-elected. The disinformation-laced lament from a small business owner about refugees and “woke” ideology. The friend who insisted Carney, not Poilievre, is more Trump-like. The Conservative stronghold of Alberta is so upset with the result it might hold a referendum on leaving the country. Danielle Smith, Alberta’s far-right premier, said people in her province are “hurt and betrayed” that Canada re-elected the Liberals. Meanwhile, Poilievre has vowed to stay on as Conservative leader, with a pending byelection to secure him a seat in a reliably Tory riding.

This poor deluded woman is happy to have reelected the same evil clowns who have run Canada into the ditch this past decade.

Laura Dawson: Hard truths about trade and migration from a Texas diner

At George’s Diner in Waco, Texas, I learned that trade and migration look a whole lot different from the U.S. southern border with Mexico than from the northern border with Canada.

It’s not a red light versus green light situation where the state is either open or closed to travel and trade. Rather, it is highly specific depending on who (or what) is crossing the border. Those who follow the rules are welcome, but those who do not should be excluded.

GOLDSTEIN: ‘Elbows up’ was Liberal rhetoric while policy was ‘quietly fold’ on tariffs

As it turns out, Prime Minister Mark Carney’s election strategy of publicly talking tough about taking on U.S. President Donald Trump in his tariff/trade war, while practising a far more conciliatory approach behind the scenes, was hiding in plain sight all the time.

Ian Bremmer, president of New York-based Eurasia Group, a political risk analysis firm with close ties to Carney, accurately predicted this strategy in a March 26 column titled, “The end of the transatlantic relationship as we know it.”

Cory Morgan: Another Strike Will Be the Beginning of the End of Canada Post

Small businesses relying on shipping and receiving products have had a terrible year. In November 2024, a strike by Canada Post workers caused an estimated $1.6 billion in business disruptions. Then in January 2025, the on-again, off-again tariff war with the United States created costly havoc and instability within the private market, which continues today. Now, Canadian businesses are bracing for another blow as Canada Post workers threaten to leave the job again as soon as May 22.

GUNTER: Carney government continues Liberals’ contempt for democratic unaccountability

During the recent federal election campaign, Prime Minister Mark Carney and his ministers authorized nearly $70 billion in federal spending without Parliamentary authorization. Given that the campaign was 37 days long, a man who had no seat in the Commons at the time and who had never received a vote from a single Canadian voter, authorized an average of $1.9 billion a day.
