GOLDSTEIN: It’s absurd for Jewish Canadians to treat Liberals as allies

A measure of how seriously Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberals take the unprecedented explosion of Jew hatred across Canada is indicated by their leisurely response to it.

On Feb. 4, they announced the creation of a “Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality and Inclusion” to replace the offices of the “Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism” and the “Special Representative on Combatting Islamophobia”, created by Justin Trudeau.


45% of Canada’s Jewish community voted Liberal in the last federal election according to the main post-election survey of Jewish voters.

Hamas’s Secret Weapon to Continue Ruling Gaza

Hamas’s Secret Weapon to Continue Ruling Gaza

Is Hamas preparing to contest the Palestinian parliamentary election scheduled for late November? If so, the United States and its European allies need to make one thing clear immediately: Hamas must not be allowed to participate.

The Iran-backed Palestinian terrorist group that carried out the October 7, 2023 massacre in Israel cannot be permitted to reinvent itself as a legitimate political party. After October 7, Hamas has no right to exist as a military organization. It should have no right to exist as a political organization either.

Former Liberal minister Alghabra calls Conservative criticisms over his inclusion in the pro-hate council ‘absurd political gamesmanship’

Former Liberal minister Alghabra calls Conservative criticisms over his inclusion in the pro-hate council ‘absurd political gamesmanship’

Former Liberal transport minister Omar Alghabra is defending his inclusion on—and the mandate of—the government’s new anti-hate advisory council after renewed criticism over its perceived lack of urgency from opposition critics and American officials.

“If people have criticisms of the council, its function, or even [my membership], that’s fine, but to use slander and falsehoods … it’s beneath the office that they possess and the seriousness of the issue,” Alghabra said in an interview with The Hill Times last week, calling Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s (Battle River–Crowfoot, Alta.) allegation that he lobbied on behalf of a terrorist group “absurd … political gamesmanship.”

The Arab-Islamic Formula for ‘Peace’: Ignore Hamas, Blame Israel

The Arab-Islamic Formula for ‘Peace’: Ignore Hamas, Blame Israel

Foreign ministers of Arab and Islamic countries gathered in Jordan on August 5 and 6 to issue yet another series of condemnations of Israel. Reading their statements, one could easily conclude that there is only one party responsible for violence, instability, and suffering in the Middle East: Israel.

Hamas? Barely relevant. The Hamas-led October 7, 2023 massacre? Apparently not worth mentioning. Palestinian terrorism and incitement against Israel? Not on the agenda. The need to dismantle Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups? Evidently not a priority.

‘Systemic’: Students speak out about antisemitism on Canadian campuses

‘Systemic’: Students speak out about antisemitism on Canadian campuses

OTTAWA – Alexa Barett-Taller says she experienced a number of antisemitic incidents during her time at Ottawa’s Carleton University, but one stands out in particular – as it involved her professor.

“The professor actually decided to explicitly say that the Jewish people were to blame for Oct. 7,” Barett-Taller said in an interview with CTV News.

This was in the aftermath of the 2023 massacre of Jews by Hamas, and Barett-Taller says she had specifically approached her professor ahead of the class to ask that the topic be discussed with “care and nuance.” She felt her concerns were never heard.

Terry Newman: The anti-Zionist doctor who didn’t know what she’d done wrong

Terry Newman: The anti-Zionist doctor who didn’t know what she’d done wrong

Kavita Algu, a former palliative care doctor at Toronto’s Mount Sinai Hospital, recently quit after a workplace investigator found her to be disruptive and unprofessional, which the Toronto Star would like you to believe is some kind of injustice. Judging from the Star’s own “investigation” and Algu’s activism, this couldn’t be further from the truth.

According to the Star’s investigation, Algu “was never told specifically what she did wrong.” She was just a physician who engaged in Palestinian advocacy and “ultimately felt she had no choice but to leave a career she had spent years building.”

Usual suspect arrested after attempting to cut Israeli kitchen tent at Edmonton Heritage Festival

A man was arrested after being thwarted from lunging with a knife toward an Israeli kitchen tent at the Edmonton Heritage Festival on Monday.

Social media footage circulating on Wednesday captured the shadow of an individual attempting to slash an Israeli tent with a knife. The footage then cut to security officers detaining the assailant in the main festival area as chants of “All the Zionists are racists” echoed in the background.

Matthew Taub: A year later, what happened to Carney’s conditions for recognizing Palestine?

Global Affairs Canada was asked to identify the conditions governing one of Canada’s most consequential foreign-policy decisions in decades. Did Ottawa establish benchmarks before recognizing Palestine? Which had been met? Was there a monitoring process, and what consequences would follow if the remaining commitments failed?

It could not name one, I know because I emailed them to ask.

Antisemitism ‘normalized’ at Canadian universities, government survey finds—professors blamed in 1 in 5 incidents

Antisemitism ‘normalized’ at Canadian universities, government survey finds—professors blamed in 1 in 5 incidents

A national survey of Jewish post-secondary students has found that antisemitism at Canadian universities is not an isolated problem but a pervasive feature of campus life, with the overwhelming majority reporting they have experienced or witnessed it in the past year.

The Campus Antisemitism and Student Experiences (CASE) report, commissioned by the federal government and produced by the Association for Canadian Studies and the Metropolis Institute, surveyed roughly 900 Jewish postsecondary students. It found that 95.7 percent had experienced or witnessed at least one antisemitic incident in the previous year, and that 84 percent said antisemitism is now a serious problem on their campus.

Bribing Hamas Will Not Bring Peace – It Will Finance The Next War

Bribing Hamas Will Not Bring Peace – It Will Finance The Next War

A recent report that US President Donald J. Trump’s Board of Peace is considering paying Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip thousands of dollars in exchange for surrendering their rifles should alarm anyone who genuinely seeks peace and security in the Middle East.

If true, the proposal represents a dangerous retreat from the original objective of Trump’s September 2025 peace plan: the complete demilitarization of the Gaza Strip and the unconditional disarmament of Hamas and other terrorist groups.

Canada part of ‘scourge’ of antisemitism experienced by health-care professionals internationally: report

Antisemitism in health-care education and practice has risen sharply since Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 attack, affecting Jewish medical professionals in Canada as well as the U.S., U.K. and Australia, according to a narrative review published in the Rambam Maimonides Medical Journal last month.

The review brings together existing research from the four countries on antisemitism in health-care professions, including medicine, psychology, nursing, and social work.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Antisemitic terrorism is a national emergency. Carney needs to act like it

Tasha Kheiriddin: Antisemitic terrorism is a national emergency. Carney needs to act like it

When does hate become terrorism? Answer: when it is orchestrated, repeatedly, to sow fear, cause chaos, and undermine society. One hateful act can be the work of a vengeful madman; a series of hateful acts, against the same community, conducted in a similar manner, constitute terrorism.

That is what Jews in Canada face today. Since October 7, 2023, B’nai Brith Canada has documented nearly 5,800 total incidents in 2023 and a record 6,800 incidents throughout 2025. By today’s stats, that’s one hate crime for every 487 Jewish residents. Jews are 22 times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than non-Jewish Canadians

U.S. antisemitism envoy calls on Canada to restrict visas, expand terrorism listings

OTTAWA – U.S. President Donald Trump’s envoy for fighting antisemitism is urging Canada to revoke visas and expand terrorism listings to curb the rise of anti-Jewish hatred.

Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, who spent seven years of his childhood in Ottawa, was appointed last December as U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, an ambassador-rank position.

“My message is to Canada, you need to do better,” Kaploun told The Canadian Press last week during a visit to Ottawa.


Trump’s man will trigger the Liberal Party.

A lot of unflattering articles today about Canada and the Islamist leanings of the Liberal-left.
