Most Canadians say citizens who stay in high-risk conflict zones don’t deserve government protection: poll

As Ottawa continues to airlift hundreds of Canadians out of Lebanon this weekend, a new Leger survey shows slightly more than half of Canadians (52 per cent) think Canada does not owe protection to citizens who decide to stay in conflict zones despite warnings to leave.

According to the survey, only a third (34 per cent) think the federal government has a responsibility to protect and evacuate its citizens.


There are Canadians and then there are Canadians of convenience – foreigners who have obtained citizenship as insurance.

This farce is becoming generational. How many times do we have to evacuate the same “Canadians” from Lebanon or their “Canadian” offspring?

Canada’s International Student Boom Was A Deliberately Plotted $148M Liberal Government Scam

Foreign student scam

Canada’s international student boom went from success to liability over just a few years. Policymakers that promoted the growth are now suddenly passing blame, presenting it as an overwhelming surprise. It turns out the growth was the intended outcome of a $148 million plan, including a new brand jointly owned and operated by the Federal, Provincial, and Territorial Governments. Policymakers are now presenting new limits as a response to public outcry, coincidentally in the same year the strategy ended. What timing!

Massive surge of illegal migrants, including suspected terrorists, crossing border from Canada to US

It’s well-known that millions of migrants have illegally entered the United States, crossing over the country’s southern border with Mexico. What isn’t as well-known is migrants are also crossing illegally into the US over its northern border with Canada.

And while it’s very much shy of the numbers coming in from the south, the number of migrants crossing from the north has increased 50-fold under the Biden-Harris administration, according to the US Border Patrol.

Nice little news network you got there. Pity if anything should happen to it …

So apparently the boycott is off: Pierre Poilievre has announced he has lifted last week’s fatwa on Conservative MPs speaking to CTV News.

Lest you think this is owing to any sudden outburst of magnanimity on the Conservative leader’s part, it is not: CTV had earlier announced that two employees responsible for a misleadingly edited clip of Mr. Poilievre speaking are “no longer members of the CTV News team.” The sacrifice appears to have placated him, for now.

As I understand it Coyne is upset that the Conservatives did not welcome being misrepresented in the CTV report.

Canada dithers over participation in ‘top secret’ data cloud as allies push ahead with intelligence-sharing plans

Canada ponders ‘top secret’ data cloud as allies push ahead with intelligence-sharing plans

Australia is joining the United States and the United Kingdom in developing top-secret cloud networks to exchange highly classified defence, national security and intelligence data with each other — a concept Canada has just begun to think about.

Experts say that, unless the gap is closed quickly, Canada’s lack of such digital infrastructure will have a profound impact on new military hardware the federal government has committed to purchasing, such as F-35 stealth fighters, MQ-9 Reaper drones and long-range P-8 surveillance planes.


I don’t think Canada is dithering so much as not being invited to participate.

I suspect we are considered both a piker and a genuine security risk.

Vivian Bercovici: On Oct. 7, terrorists invaded Israel — and their sympathizers took over Canadian streets

Every time I drive on Road 232, a main artery through southern Israel, I see phantoms.

Since moving to a kibbutz in southern Israel in July, Road 232 has become my lifeline, as it is for all residents of a region that is dotted with small towns and villages. This beautiful, pastoral area is where much of Israel’s fresh produce is grown.


And who are the guilty parties.

Canada’s decline is due to the machinations of a corrupt elite.

They are the people who encouraged mass Islamist immigration and surrendered our institutions to the radical liberal-left.

They called us racists and Islamophobes while flooding the nation with incompatible cultures which they in turn championed as equal or  better to our own. 

The made us poor by depressing wages and profiting from the shortages created by their mass immigration scheme.

They made laws to silence dissent and co-opted the news media to further their agenda.

They hate us. Once you accept that it all makes sense.

GIESBRECHT: Staggering number of churches burned, more than thought

Blacklocks reports that since 2010, when the Truth and Reconciliation (TRC) commissioners began making the claim in interviews and in interim reports that thousands of indigenous children had died at residential schools under suspicious circumstances, more than 400 Christian churches have burned in Canada.

Those allegations were false, and based on a conspiracy theory.

Are Canada’s Jews at a tipping point? Most are anxious, many are fearful, and some have moved away

The soaring brick façade and sparce windows of Congregation Machzikei Hadas are easily mistaken for a school or a prison, its faddish 1970s architecture masking the Ottawa synagogue’s century-old roots. Inside, Rabbi Idan Scher tends a congregation of about 350 Jewish families cycling through their religious calendar and life’s unstoppable milestones.

Michael Higgins: Liberals have turned Canada into a country that rewards terrorism

As the anniversary of October 7 approaches, Justin Trudeau’s Liberals have decided to escalate their anti-Israel messaging while also adopting the ludicrous position of overtly supporting terrorists.

It’s a strange way for Canada to treat an ally — but not surprising considering the facile and simplistic response of the Liberals to events in the Middle East.

You’re kidding, you expected them to integrate? Windsor mosque honours slain Hezbollah leader, sparking online outrage

A well-attended gathering at a Windsor mosque on Sunday to celebrate the slain leader of Hezbollah — listed by Canada and other countries as a terrorist group — has sparked online outrage.

“We don’t believe Hassan Nasrallah is a terrorist,” said Hussein Dabaja, a co-organizer of the Windsor gathering and a Lebanese-born Hezbollah supporter.

Canada to US Immigration Hits Ten-Year High

Recent data from the US Census Bureau has revealed that more than 126,340 people emigrated from Canada to the US in 2022 – a 70 percent increase from 2012 in a move many have attributed to the country’s increasingly high cost of living. However, as a nation that granted permanent residency to 2.5 million people in just eight years and thousands more expected to settle south of the border in the coming years, it’s an alarming trend that has the potential to undermine the country’s robust immigration policy.

Canada’s Racist Society To Blame For Black’s Shooting One Another Says Expert

To prevent homicide in Toronto, we must start with addressing grief in Black communities

Homicide grief among Black communities in Canada has reached pandemic proportions — and it requires an urgent, co-ordinated public health response.

… Make no mistake, though. This isn’t a disease of Black communities. It’s a societal problem that will continue to worsen if not addressed. As with the inequitable spread of COVID-19, racism and inequalities embedded in our social structures and systems underlie homicide’s disproportionate pervasiveness.
